775 The heirs 9

The men at the dining table were talking about major financial events. Tong Lu could not understand what they were talking about, so she decided to focus all her attention on eating. Two hours passed by the end of the meal, and the heirs were still drinking and chatting. She was full, so she put down her chopsticks and sat beside Wanwan to chat with her. She had a lot of free time to pass.

Beside her, Leng Yejin got up and went to the bathroom.

When the door of the private room was pushed open again, she thought that it was Leng Yejin who had returned. She subconsciously glanced at him. He was shocked and quickly squatted down, trying to minimize his presence.

Mu Shang was dressed in a military uniform with a black windbreaker on top. He looked tough and cold. His military boots stomped on the ground as he walked to his brother mu Xiao’s side and threw something in his hand to him.

Mu Xiao took the item and motioned for him to get lost. Mu Shang lit a cigarette.”I’ve been travelling for a few hours to deliver your things, and you’re telling me to leave right after I’m done? At least let me have a midnight snack.”

After he finished speaking, his gaze inadvertently swept across something.”Miss Tong?”

Tong Lu was about to sneak out when she was suddenly stopped. Annoyed that she was not walking fast enough, she strode out of the room.

Mu Shang took a few steps forward. Before Tong Lu could touch the door handle of the private room, someone suddenly grabbed her arm. Mu Shang was surprised, and his expression turned cold.”What a coincidence, why do I run into you everywhere I go?”

“Hehe, what a coincidence.” She lowered her head and did not dare to look up, her heart burning with anxiety.

Mu Shang’s gaze was condescending, and he seemed to have noticed something. With an impudent action, his long fingers fell on her jaw and he lifted it up with force. The door of the private room was pushed open, and a tall and stalwart man walked in from outside. He happened to notice the movement in this direction, and his eyes instantly darkened.

Mu Shang’s eyes narrowed and he was full of doubts.”Your face?”

“Mu Shang! Impudent!” Leng Yejin’s words made everyone’s heart beat faster.

In the blink of an eye, Tong Lu was already by Leng Yejin’s side. He led her back to her seat.

Mu Shang turned around and fixed his gaze on Tong Lu in disbelief. A few hours ago, her face was so horrible to look at. Now, there was not even a scar on the woman’s face. Was he sure that it was one person and not two?

Tong Lu felt uneasy. She looked at Leng Yejin worriedly.’What should I do?’

Leng Yejin patted the back of her hand. His long, slender fingers rapped on the table nonchalantly. He then picked up the wine glass on the table.

Mu Shang walked back and rubbed his chin with his long fingers, looking like he was deep in thought.”Miss Tong, you don’t have any twin sisters, do you?”

Mu Xiao also felt that his brother’s actions just now were a little presumptuous, and his voice was cold. “Mu Shang, what’s going on?”

Oh, it’s nothing. I had the chance to be a hero and save a beauty in the evening. Now, I’m suspecting whether the person I saved was miss Tong or not. The recovery of this injury is beyond my understanding.

Tong Lu braced herself. Why was she so unlucky?

Leng Yejin picked up an empty glass and poured himself a glass of wine. He raised his glass and rose.”Thank you. I’ll definitely give you a big gift to thank you later.”

Mu Shang raised his eyebrows, picked up his glass, and clinked his glass with his. “It’s nothing.”

“I wonder how miss Tong recovered so quickly?” he asked after he had finished drinking.

Ji Yiming’s special herbal medicine. I’ll give you one when I get back. Leng Yejin brushed it off nonchalantly and sat down again. He had only said that out of courtesy.

However, mu Shang said, ” sure, I can’t ask for more. Remember to give it to me later. It’s easy to get into trouble in the Army. If there’s such a good medicine, I’ll ask for a few more.
