Chapter 2: Next Time, Carry Me Away From the Bed
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mu Qiannian’s sharp eyes caught a glimpse of Pei Mingchen’s empty right hand on his well-tailored shirt. She grabbed the man and pulled him to her eyes. She stared at his wrist and frowned. “Pei Mingchen, where’s the watch your mother left you?”
Pei Mingchen was the most unfavored illegitimate child in the Chen family. He had no money, power, and status. Only the quartz watch with the sapphire embedded in it was worth something. It was the only thing his mother left him, so he would not leave it easily.
Pei Mingchen lowered his eyes and did not look at Mu Qiannian. His eyelashes cast a thick shadow under his eyelids. “I sold it…”
Mu Qiannian felt as if a fishbone was stuck in her throat.. She enunciated the word clearly. “Why?”
Pei Mingchen’s slender body stood straight. The tip of his toes extinguished the cigarette butt that had fallen to the ground. He paused for a moment before saying, “It’s nothing. I’ve just been a little short of money recently.”
Mu Qiannian was very sure that when Pei Mingchen said this, he had looked at her. She then recalled the greedy nature of her subordinates. Mu Qiannian could not help but ask, “What else did you sell?”
“A house, and a car.”
“…”
This guy… really wanted to snatch her hand in marriage?!
In Mu Qiannian’s previous life, Pei Mingchen loved her to death. In this life, she had just been reborn. Pei Mingchen seemed as if he was going to sleep on the streets soon. Mu Qiannian felt that she really had to give in.
She rolled her eyes at this insensible ‘dead man’ as she sent a message to her subordinates and cursed, “Immediately return the money to him. You guys actually asked for so much money?! A bunch of b*stards!”
The Eighth Brother was confused after being scolded. ‘Wasn’t the Mu family always like this? Wasn’t this price set by the boss himself? Sob, sob, sob.’
“Let’s forget about this first. Don’t squander like this again in the future, do you hear me?!”
After Mu Qiannian sent the message, she turned around and deliberately scolded Pei Mingchen. However, Pei Mingchen just obediently nodded. He took out all the bank cards on his body and handed them to her. He bent her fingers and closed her palm. “Okay, you have the final say in the future.”
Mu Qiannian was speechless. “You…”
“Quick, go and take a look. Something has happened to the Mu family’s Young Lady, who’s engaged to President Chen!”
“I really didn’t expect her to be this kind of person…”
“You can’t judge a book by its cover. I heard that Miss Mu’s father is currently apologizing to President Chen. We’ll know what’s going on once we go and take a look.”
Suddenly, a group of people rushed into the narrow passage. A force was felt from behind. Mu Qiannian’s entire body fell forward unsteadily and coincidentally fell into Pei Mingchen’s arms.
The group of people talked as they walked, pointing at Mu Qiannian.
Mu Qiannian sneered. It seemed that she did not need to do anything. Some of them could not wait any longer.
“Let’s go. The stage has been set up. They’re waiting for us to watch the show.”
Pei Mingchen’s eyes darkened. He nodded and followed her in.
The two of them stood at the entrance of the venue. A baritone voice that shook the mountains and rivers came from inside —
“She’s simply a daughter who has lost her family! My family is unfortunate, so how could I, Mu Mou, adopt such a dirty and unfilial daughter who doesn’t know propriety, justice, and shame!”
This voice was extremely familiar. Mu Qiannian’s ‘understanding and good’ adoptive father pointed at the few photos that were displayed on the projector with a stern face, full of anger.
Mu Qiannian stood not far behind him, and a hint of coldness flashed across the corner of her mouth. She let out a ‘tsk’.
On the screen, a man and a woman who were completely covered in hickeys were together like glue. It was an enchanting scene.
Moreover, that woman’s face was exactly the same as Mu Qiannian’s!
“Oh my God, I didn’t expect a child that President Mu raised out of kindness to be so immoral!”
“How shameless. The reputation of the Mu family has been completely ruined by Mu Qiannian. Look at how angry President Mu is. He almost fainted, right?”
“Fainted? It’s enough to die of anger. I think President Chen’s family is also going to die of anger. They almost married such a dirty prostitute!”
Mu Qiannian looked at the group of passersby who were talking nonsense and snorted coldly in his heart.
From the start, these people, including the people who posted the photo, were all prepared by the Mu family. It seemed that they had put in a lot of effort to clear Mu Wanwan’s name.
“Ignore them.” Pei Mingchen’s eyes were extremely cold and malicious as he looked at the big screen. He tilted his head and looked at Mu Qiannian. His voice was filled with gentleness and comfort. “As long as you’re willing, I’ll carry you away now.”
The feeling of being protected by someone made her feel at ease. Mu Qiannian smiled and said in a playful and mischievous manner, “It’s not your place to take care of these little trash. Save your strength and carry me away from the bed next time.”
“…” Pei Mingchen’s proud back suddenly froze on the spot, and his ears turned red. This was the first time Mu Qiannian had noticed him in all these years. This was the first time she had taken the initiative to make a request to him in a coquettish manner.
In the living room —
Before Father Mu could continue speaking, a cold and indifferent female voice came from behind him. “Your mouth is so dirty. Be careful that you don’t get pus and ulcers on the inside one day!”
Mu Qiannian pushed open the half-closed door. What everyone saw was a cold and beautiful woman in black walking in with a cold and arrogant aura.
When Father Mu saw the expressionless Mu Qiannian, his scalp went numb and he forced himself to be imposing, “B*stard, you still have the pride to come?”
“If you have it, why don’t I have it?”
“Impudent!” Before Pei Mingchen could do anything, Father Mu turned around and pointed coldly at Mu Qiannian. “You unfilial daughter, look at what you’ve done! My Mu family has raised you for more than twenty years, but is this how you repay the Mu Family? You ungrateful thing, you really make my heart go cold!”
Under the cold expression, Mu Qiannian’s bright eyes stared at Father Mu without blinking. “You’re so noisy. I think you’re old and your vision is blurry. Your dementia is acting up early. Look clearly, is that me up there?”
Father Mu’s blood surged. He tried his best to calm his breathing and said fiercely, “How can it be anyone else? Although I have such a pair of eyes, there’s no way I’m mistaken!”
Mu Qiannian’s eyes moved slightly and the corners of his lips curled up. “Is that so?”
In the next second, countless flashes were aimed at Father Mu. Everyone’s gaze shifted from Mu Qiannian to the big screen and realized that the person on it was not Mu Qiannian at all!
It was — Mu Wanwan!
Father Mu looked at the photos on the big screen in shock and disbelief. He instantly felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
How could this be?
All the guests present, including the reporters, instantly focused their attention on Father Mu —
“President Mu, you said that the person in the photos was your adopted daughter, Mu Qiannian. Could you confirm the authenticity of these photos?”
“President Mu, are these photos real? Is it possible that your daughter was slandered? Were you deceived?”
“Is it true that Mu Wanwan is with a man?”
“I think there must be some misunderstanding.” Mu Qiannian walked forward and said softly, “As everyone knows, my father’s biological daughter was found not long ago. He probably just wanted to introduce Mu Wanwan’s photos to everyone, but he put the wrong photo!”
Father Mu wanted to retort, but when he met Mu Qiannian’s cold and emotionless gaze, he felt like a fishbone stuck in his throat and could not say a word.
“Why did you put a photo of your biological daughter at your foster daughter’s engagement party?”
“President Mu, did you deliberately get people to release these photos so that you would distance yourself from your foster daughter and only focus on your biological daughter?”
In an instant, everyone pushed the wall down and the reporters surrounded Father Mu as if they had been injected with stimulants. Father Mu was completely surrounded.

“Shouldn’t boss at least give us a signal?”
At the same time, Pei Mingchen’s eyes were filled with gentleness as he looked at Mu Qiannian. He did not say a word as the corners of his mouth were filled with a doting smile.
“I knew it. Mu Qiannian, you b*tch! What evil intentions are you harboring?!” Chen Jia rushed over from the front. His gaze when he looked at Mu Qiannian was filled with disgust. He raised his hand and was about to hurl it at her face.
“Watch your mouth!” A cold and muscular body blocked in front of Mu Qiannian. Pei Mingchen stared coldly at Chen Jia.
