After Zong Zhengyu sent someone to bring the porridge over, he didn’t say anything more and sat down at the side.

Mu Anan had just recovered from her fever and did not have much strength. She kept thinking about what happened yesterday.

She wanted to start the conversation but did not know where to start.

The two of them remained silent.

Until a servant served the porridge.

Zong Zhengyu dismissed the servant. He personally carried the porridge to Mu Anan’s bed. He stirred the steaming porridge gently and blew on it to ensure that the temperature was right before putting it into Mu Anan’s mouth.

Mu Anan just watched quietly. When he put the porridge into her mouth, she was a little emotional.

When she looked up, her eyes were red.

Seeing this, Seventh Master immediately frowned and put down the porridge. He placed his right hand on Mu Anan’s forehead. “Still having a fever?”

She could feel the warmth of Seventh Master’s hand on her forehead, as well as the faint smell of cigarettes on his fingertips.

Mu Anan liked the smell of cigarettes.

When she was younger, her grandfather and mother did not smoke. Only her scumbag father smoked. Her mother had strictly ordered her scumbag father to get rid of the smell of smoke if he wanted to get close to Mu Anan.

However, her scumbag father rarely got close to Mu Anan.

He didn’t like Mu Anan, and she had never been close to him since she was young.

When Mu Anan grew up, she smelled the smell outside, but she did not find it as hard to accept as her mother had said.

When they arrived at Yuyuan Estate, she could smell the faint smell of smoke on Seventh Master.

It was a very pure smell of smoke. It was light and not pungent. It was especially mesmerizing.

She liked it.

Mu Anan felt extremely relieved when she smelled this scent.

She didn’t want to lose this smell.

“Seventh Master.”

Mu Anan took a deep breath. Her voice was a little hoarse.

She didn’t know if it was because she was sick or because she had something on her mind.

“Yes?”

“Aren’t you going to talk to me about what happened on the cruise yesterday?”

After some thought, Mu Anan still took the initiative to talk about it. “Don’t you blame me?”

“Yesterday has passed.” Zong Zhengyu gave a very direct answer.

Mu Anan’s heart tightened.

Zong Zhengyu took the porridge again, stirred it gently, and fed it to Mu Anan.

Mu Anan had initially wanted to reject it because she didn’t have the appetite. Her stomach felt a little nauseous.

However, she couldn’t bear to reject Seventh Master’s gift.

Zong Zhengyu fed Mu Anan half a bowl of porridge, but he put the bowl aside when he saw that she was frowning and couldn’t eat anymore.

He took a tissue and wiped Mu Anan’s mouth carefully. He then took her temperature to make sure everything was normal.

“Is there anything else you feel uncomfortable about?”

Mu Anan shook her head. “I feel much better.”

Her constitution was not very good and she often fell sick, but she recovered quickly.

Seeing Mu Anan’s face turn a little red, Zong Zhengyu returned to his seat.

He was sitting casually. He wasn’t wearing a formal suit today, so he exuded a lazy sexiness.

“Anan.”

Zong Zhengyu called out slowly.

Mu Anan turned to look at Zong Zhengyu.

Zong Zhengyu raised his eyes, “Yesterday on the speedboat, you asked me if the Mu family tragedy was related to me.”

When Zong Zhengyu mentioned this matter, Mu Anan felt as if her heart had been strangled and she was very nervous.

For a moment, she didn’t know how to breathe.

Her expression was very stiff.

“I said no,” said Zhong Zhengyu.

“I believe you!” Mu Anan almost shouted this sentence anxiously.

However, when she said this, she felt sad and guilty.

Her heart ached. Seventh Master would never lie to her.

Since she was young, Zong Zhengyu had never lied or cheated her no matter what happened.

Mu Anan had not only given her heart to the man who had given her a second life, but she had also given him all her trust.

Her guilt was due to her mother and grandfather.

Zong Zhengyu looked at the nervous child in front of him and replied, “I’ll give you a sentence today.”

“I’m not the mastermind behind the Mu family’s tragedy.”

Zong Zhengyu spoke calmly for the first time in a true sense to discuss this matter with Mu Anan.

He didn’t talk about her in the past because he felt that she was still young and had a strong personality. Although she was a smart child, she would start to be impulsive when it came to emotional problems. He was worried that she would do something stupid.

He chose to be with her now, not because Mu Anan had grown up.

It was to prevent what happened to Master Gui yesterday from happening.

This child did not know anything, and the matter with the Mu family had always been susceptible. After hearing two or three sentences, she would lose her judgment because of her emotions.

If he didn’t explain it clearly, this child would let her imagination run wild.

Zong Zhengyu also remembered that day when Mu Anan grabbed his sleeve and said that if he had something to do with the Mu family, she would forgive him but not let him off.

He didn’t want this child to be hurt.

Zong Zhengyu stared at Mu Anan and continued, “The Mu family’s case involves a lot of things. There’s even someone behind it. The Jiang family is not worth mentioning. The key is the one behind the Jiang family. If you believe me, just remember that I will give you an explanation for this matter sooner or later.”

Mu Anan kept looking into Zong Zhengyu’s eyes and listened to him quietly.

She answered without hesitation, “Alright, I believe you.”

I believe everything you say.

You said it was for my good. I believed you.

You said you weren’t involved. I believed you.

You said that you would give me an explanation. I still believed you.

Mu Anan’s eyes were a little wet, but she gave Zong Zhengyu a strong smile.

For some reason, such a smile made Zong Zhengyu’s heart hurt.

When Zong Zhengyu stood up, his phone rang.

He lowered his head to look but did not pick it up. Instead, he hung up.

He stood up and reached out his hand to press Mu Anan’s head. “Your hospital will close these two days. I’ll take you to the suburbs.”

“Hmm?” Mu Anan raised her head.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to attend a cocktail party?”

“Do you want to bring me there?” Mu Anan had a smile on her face

She did say that she wanted to go to the cocktail party.

She said it because she was a little jealous when she saw the lipstick stain on Zong Zhengyu’s collar.

She was not interested in the cocktail party.

But on second thought, didn’t go to the cocktail party mean that she had to wear a gown?

She could choose to be sexier and more feminine. She could give Seventh Master a little stimulation from her appearance and let him know.

Thinking of this, Mu Anan smiled. “Yes.”

“You can call your friend along.”

“Huo Xian?” Mu Anan blurted out, and she received a sharp look from Zong Zhengyu.

Mu Anan immediately shrank back. “Are you talking about Chen Hua?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Zong Zhengyu’s phone rang again.

He took a look and did not hang up this time. “If you want to bring him or her, inform Luo Sen yourself. Ask him to prepare the dresses.”

After he finished speaking, Zong Zhengyu left. But when he reached the door, he added, “Remember, only one is allowed.”

Mu Anan immediately sat up straight and saluted. “Alright! I’ll only bring Huo Xian… No, Chen Hua.”

The seventh master could not be bothered with her. He opened the door and left.

Mu Anan lay on the bed and laughed.

Seventh Master’s jealous look was too cute.

Regardless of whether it was possessiveness, jealousy, or anything else, she liked it.

As Mu Anan smiled, she thought about the Jiang family and her expression darkened.

However, it was only for a moment before it was covered up.

She sat down again and grabbed her phone, preparing to send a message to Chen Hua.

However, when she saw her chat history with Chen Hua, Mu Anan was dumbfounded….
