The funny Shen Man burst into laughter and laughed so hard that she fell backwards, but tragedy soon struck as a glass of milk spilled all over her.

"Ah, ah..."

Shen Man jumped up and screamed loudly: "It's over, it's over, why am I so unlucky."

As he said that, he took off the sweater he was wearing on the spot, "Oh, it's wet inside too."

Seeing that Shen Man was still going to take off her clothes, Li Muzi hurriedly called out, "Manman."

Shen Man was stunned for a moment, then she reacted, her face flushed, and she turned her head sharply to look at Zhou Chen, only to find that Zhou Chen had already turned away.

He breathed a sigh of relief, then hurried to his room to change clothes. Seeing this, Li Muzi couldn't help but sigh and stroke his forehead.

"Aunt Chen, Manman's milk spilled, come and clean it up."

"Okay, miss."

Li Muzi turned to Zhou Chen and said, "Hubby, Manman has always been like this. She got used to it when she was with me. Don't mind it."

Zhou Chen shrugged and said, "I don't care, but you have to remind him that I am the only man in this family."

Li Muzi found it funny: "Okay, I'll remind her that Manman is actually very good. I think you two can become very good friends."

Zhou Chen smiled and didn't say anything. Normally speaking, becoming good friends with his wife's best friend is not a good thing.

Shen Man changed her clothes quickly. After she came out, she was not embarrassed at all. She said calmly, "It seems that milk and I are still not compatible. Muzi, I want to drink lemonade. There are lemons at home, right?"

"Have."

Li Muzi likes to drink lemonade. Although she can't drink it now due to poor appetite, there are always fresh lemons at home.

"You don't have to get up, I'll do it myself."

Shen Man dragged her slippers and ran to the kitchen, found a lemon in the refrigerator, and took a cup of water.

When she saw the 'M' symbol printed on the bottom of the water cup, a big smile appeared on her face.

This is a symbol unique to her and Li Muzi, it is both the "Man" in Shen Man and the "Mu" in Li Muzi.

She knew Li Muzi's habit and knew that she would definitely use such a cup, just like she would also use a cup with the same symbol. In this respect, they were in sync.

She walked back to the living room with the cup of water. When Li Muzi saw Shen Man chose this cup, she also smiled.

"Manman, you finally returned home. I should have taken you around, but I can't walk in my current condition. If there's anywhere you want to go, I'll ask the driver or He Fei to take you there."

Li Muzi looked apologetic. She really wanted to take Shen Man out for a trip, but she also knew her situation and would only be a burden if they went out.

Shen Man leaned beside her and said, "What are you talking about? I came back to China just for you. It's better to stay at home with you than to go anywhere else."

Li Muzi was touched and said, "Manman, it's great to have you."

"Me too. I really couldn't adapt to the past two years when you weren't by my side. Now that we're finally together again, I'm really very happy."

"Thank you, Manman, for flying all the way back to be with me."

"This is as it should be. You'll regret it if I'm not around when you give birth to your child."

Listening to the conversation between the two women, Zhou Chen felt more and more that something was not right. Are conversations between female best friends always so straightforward?

Should I be under the car?

Seeing the two women being so intimate, he finally couldn't help but cough twice.

Li Muzi turned her head and asked with concern: "What's wrong, husband?"

Facing the curious gazes of the two women, Zhou Chen sighed and said, "I just feel like my wife was taken away by someone else. I feel helpless."

"Pfft!"

Li Muzi and Shen Man were both amused by Zhou Chen's pretending to be aggrieved.

Shen Man even hugged Li Muzi tightly and said loudly: "It's not me who stole Muzi away, it's you who stole my Muzi. Muzi and I have known each other for more than ten years, and you have only known each other for more than two years. Our feelings are much deeper than yours."

Zhou Chen retorted: "That's not the case. Feelings can't be measured by time. Although we have known each other for a short time, our feelings are deep. I heard from Muzi that you have never been in a relationship, so I guess you can't understand the feelings between Muzi and me."

When Shen Man heard this, she immediately became anxious: "I have never been in love, but that doesn't mean I don't understand. I am a drama director. I don't know how many love dramas I have directed. How could I not understand love?"

"hehe."

"No, what do you mean by haha, do you look down on me?"

"No, I just thought it was funny."

"Ah, you actually think I'm funny."

Shen Man was very angry with Zhou Chen, her 'rival in love', and complained to Li Muzi: "Muzi, your husband made fun of me, you avenge me."

Watching the two people closest to him arguing, Li Muzi did not stop them, but just watched with a smile.

She knew her man and knew that Zhou Chen was teasing Shen Man on purpose. As for the reason, it must be because Shen Man had snatched her away last night.

"Hubby, stop teasing Manman."

Shen Man glared at him angrily: "Did you do this on purpose?"

Zhou Chen laughed and said, "It's just a joke. Who asked you to steal my wife?"

Shen Man snorted coldly in dissatisfaction, but she was not really angry. She was just tricked by Zhou Chen and was in a bad mood.

"I thought you stole my Muzi. If you dare to treat Muzi badly in the future, I will fight you."

Zhou Chen said very seriously: "You can rest assured, my mission is to be good to Muzi. Even if I am not good to myself, I will be good to her."

Shen Man's expression eased: "I hope you remember what you said. Muzi is definitely the person who loves you the most in the world."

Li Muzi pulled Shen Man to sit down and said softly, "Man Man, He Fei will treat me well. I believe him."

Shen Man felt a little jealous. Li Muzi had always stood on her side before, but now, although Li Muzi still treated her the same as before, there was an extra Zhou Chen between them.

Although she also understood that Li Muzi would be happier if there was one more person who loved her, but after all, they had been together day and night for many years, and Li Muzi now had a husband and children, she still felt a little sad.

"I'm going to the bathroom to give you two some privacy."

When Zhou Chen saw Shen Man leave, he immediately sat next to Li Muzi and hugged her.

"She still has some good eyesight."

Li Muzi found it funny, but Zhou Chen's intimacy still made her feel warm. She had never seen Zhou Chen looking so eager to win favor.

"Don't bully Manman."

"I didn't bully her. Who told her to steal my wife? I couldn't sleep last night because you weren't by my side."

Li Muzi leaned on Zhou Chen's shoulder and said in a soft voice, "I don't believe it."

"Are you going to sleep with her tonight?"

"Well, Manman and I haven't seen each other for a long time. I want to spend a few days with her. Husband, don't be jealous."

Zhou Chen scratched Li Muzi's nose and said with a smile: "I'm not jealous. As long as you are happy, I will do anything."

Li Muzi leaned into Zhou Chen's arms again and held his hand: "Hubby, you are so nice."

"That's good to know. I'm willing to do anything as long as it's good for you."

Zhou Chen gently stroked Li Muzi's face. Maybe because she didn't sleep well these days, her face looked a little yellow.

"You stay at home with Shen Man today. I have to go out. Huo Ran has come to see me several times. If I don't go to see him, he will come to our house."

Li Muzi nodded obediently: "Go ahead, Manman and I are at home, we will call you if there is anything."

"Well, call me if you have anything."

Zhou Chen went out after lunch. Huo Ran had been urging him to do something, so he was ready to solve this problem as soon as possible.

Although mosquitoes are small, they are always buzzing around your ears and may bite you at any time. The best solution is naturally.

Shoot it to death!

Chapter 1060: Pushing the limit, seeking death, the birth of a daughter

As soon as Zhou Chen met Huo Ran, he started to complain.

"He Fei, what have you been busy with recently? I sent you so many messages and called you so many times to ask you to come out, but you didn't come once."

"I'm busy now. My wife is about to give birth. Do you think I can leave you at this critical moment? The three million you borrowed is just a small matter. My goal is all the property. If I have a falling out with my wife just for your three million, do you think it's worth it?"

Zhou Chen showed an unhappy look: "You only know how to ask me for money, have you ever thought about me? I want a long-term relationship, not a one-time fall-out, do you understand?"

Huo Ran, who had been so domineering, was stunned by Zhou Chen's retort. The anger on his face disappeared and he felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

"I don't know the situation."

Zhou Chen continued to vent his dissatisfaction: "You still don't know, didn't I tell you last time, we almost got divorced because of the 10 million gambling debt, and then she gave me a chance after she found out she was pregnant, do you think I can't behave well?"

Huo Ran nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's true, but I'm also anxious. I recently went on a blind date with a girl, and we got along very well. We went house hunting together a few days ago and fell in love with a three-bedroom house. I'm already negotiating with her. If I don't have money, I really have no idea what to do."

"Already discussed it?"

Zhou Chen was surprised. This guy was really fast. However, based on his understanding, Huo Ran must have been bragging, otherwise the girl would not have talked to him so quickly.

"Which house did you fancy? Never mind, I won't ask you about that. Just tell me how much it costs in total."

Huo Ran said somewhat embarrassedly: "It's a little higher than I expected. The other party offered 5.8 million."

"Five million eight hundred thousand?"

Zhou Chen's face darkened. This guy was really pushing his luck. Last time he asked to borrow three million yuan, but now he wanted to buy a house worth five million. It went without saying that he was going to borrow the extra money from him.

Huo Ran smiled naively and said, "He Fei, this apartment is really nice. You will definitely like it after seeing it. Oh, no, you probably won't like it now. After all, you are living in a villa of several hundred square meters. But for me, this apartment is already the limit. I think three million is not a problem for you. Adding more than one million will definitely not be a big problem, right?"

Zhou Chen has now made a complete decision. If he continues to treat this kind of person like this, the punishment will probably be doubled next time.

"Yes, no problem, absolutely no problem. Just do as I said before. Negotiate the price with the other party first, and then sell it after the New Year. It will definitely be cheaper."

"I don't think so. Their houses are very popular. What if I'm too late and someone else takes it away?"

Huo Ran was not frightened by Zhou Chen this time. Instead, he said seriously, "He Fei, help me this time. I promise you that as long as you help me this time, I will never borrow money from you again. I will never reveal anything about the car accident and delete that memory from now on."

Zhou Chen's face turned gloomy: "Huoran, are you threatening me?"

Huo Ran cried out, "How is that possible? We are best friends. How could I threaten you? I am begging you to do me a favor. As long as you help me buy this house and pay for the renovation, I promise that we will never owe each other anything and will never see each other again."

Zhou Chen sneered: "Do you think I will believe you?"

Seeing that Zhou Chen seemed unwilling, Huo Ran's face darkened: "He Fei, we are best friends. You can't forget your brotherhood now that you are rich. Without my help, how could you marry Li Muzi? Li Muzi is worth billions and has a company with a lot of money. I just ask you for a few million. It's not too much, right?"

"A few million is not excessive, but this is not the first time I've heard you say this. I don't trust you. Who knows if I give it to you this time, will you threaten me with the same reason next time?"

"He Fei, don't we even have this little bit of trust anymore?"

"Ha, Huo Ran, now that things have come to this, let's get straight to the point. I can find a way to get the money together for you, but this is the last time. After this, we will never see each other again, and we will never know each other again. If you go find my wife and make me suffer, I will definitely not let you suffer either."

Huo Ran, who was threatened by Zhou Chen, had an ugly look on his face. What Zhou Chen said was right. He just regarded Zhou Chen as his long-term meal ticket. Is there any better meal ticket in the world than this?

But now Zhou Chen has made it clear that if they cannot reach a consensus, he may not get a penny.

As for going to Li Muzi to complain, that would be a lose-lose situation. He Fei would be in trouble and he would not be much better off. He Fei had no money anymore, so who could he go to for money?

Therefore, unless it was absolutely necessary, he would definitely not be willing to die together with Zhou Chen.

"He Fei, I can assure you that this is definitely the last time. It really is the last time."

"I told you, you have a criminal record, I don't believe you."

"Then what do you want me to do?"

"It's simple. You write me a legally binding IOU."

"What, you want me to write you an IOU?"

Huo Ran jumped up in shock and looked at Zhou Chen in disbelief.

Zhou Chen asked calmly, "I asked you to write the IOU not because I want you to pay me back, but as a guarantee. If you use this to threaten me in the future and make my marriage break up and leave the house empty-handed, I can use the IOU to make you pay back. At least there will be a guarantee in the future. But if you no longer have that intention, I promise not to ask you to pay back. This IOU is just a piece of waste paper and has no use at all."

"Why, you don't want to? Or am I right? You just want to deceive me? Do you want to keep threatening me with that thing?"

Huo Ran's expression kept changing. He felt very embarrassed when his thoughts were exposed, but he was unwilling to accept the IOU. So he was in a dilemma.

Seeing him hesitate, Zhou Chen exerted more strength.

"The choice is yours. If you agree, I can give you the money as soon as possible, but if you don't agree, we can only end it here. If you tell my wife the truth, we may or may not get divorced, but you definitely won't have the chance to buy a house in Shanghai."

This sentence was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, causing Huo Ran to lose his balance completely.
