Chapter 1481: 1480 Enjoy yourself.
An Lin also threw herself onto the sofa.
Lowering her gaze, she looked at the yellow roses on the coffee table, the petals vibrant, the fragrance intense.
To be precise, this was the first bouquet of flowers Qin Mu gave her, and it was an apology bouquet.
She leaned against the sofa for a moment, then boredly bent forward, picked up the roses, and counted how many there were.
A total of 39 roses.
Qin Mu was not a romantic person; sending these roses must have been suggested by the florist’s staff. She thought about it, got up, and found a vase, putting the flowers in it.
An Lin figured Qin Mu would call to ask if she’d received the flowers or had breakfast, but she waited for an hour without getting any call.
Not until after ten did she finally receive a call.
At this moment, she was at Wen Ran’s Home.
“An Lin, it’s a call from Qin Mu, why aren’t you answering?” Wen Ran noticed she was staring at the phone screen but not pressing the answer button, and couldn’t help but urge her.
An Lin laughed indifferently, “No rush.”
“An Lin, since Qin Mu knows he’s wrong and sincerely apologizes to you, even if you don’t forgive him immediately, don’t divorce him, okay?”
“He doesn’t agree to divorce at all.” An Lin got angry thinking about this.
Wen Ran chuckled lightly, “He’d be a fool if he agreed. You’ve been married for several months; he can’t be without feelings for you. How about this, you test him out, don’t forgive him yet, see how he behaves going forward…”
“That idea sounds good; if we can’t get divorced, that’s the only way. The relationship between our families is there, and I know divorcing won’t be easy.”
An Lin looked frustrated.
Wen Ran understood that she was truly heartbroken.
Even if she forgives Qin Mu shortly, there will be a knot in her heart. Better let Qin Mu pursue her with different tactics; that way, maybe Qin Mu will see his own feelings sooner.
Last night she talked to Mo Xiuchen, and they felt that Qin Mu should have feelings for An Lin, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so angry.
Typically, calm and rational people are outsiders, not the involved parties.
The phone rang until it stopped and then rang again two seconds later. Wen Ran pretended to be annoyed, “Hurry up and answer it; it’s so noisy.”
An Lin glared at her, “If Mo Xiuchen called, would you think it’s noisy?”
“I wouldn’t wait so long to answer.” Wen Ran replied with a smile, “I will go upstairs to check on those little ones; they will finish class in a few minutes.”
She got up and left.
An Lin slowly pressed the answer button, put the phone to her ear, and didn’t say anything.
“An Lin, I’m downstairs, come down, and let’s go to the airport to pick up our mom.” On the other end, Qin Mu’s clear and gentle voice came through. An Lin was startled, “Pick up who at the airport?”
She thought she had heard wrong.
From the other end, Qin Mu’s laugh came faintly, “Mom is coming to G City, on the eleven-thirty flight; let’s go to the airport now.”
“Your mom or my mom?”
An Lin stood up from the sofa and heard Qin Mu answer on the other end, “It’s my mother-in-law. An Lin, come down. I’m waiting for you in the car.”
“How could you bring my mom to G City without telling me?” An Lin felt a burst of anger.
Without thinking, she knew it had to be Qin Mu’s doing.
“An Lin, I’m just trying to save our marriage. You can be angry, you can scold me, anything except divorce.” Qin Mu showed a determination to not divorce.
An Lin sharply retorted, “Even if you bring my mom here, it won’t change anything.”
Qin Mu didn’t mind her anger at all, patiently explaining, “It’s not just me, it’s both of us.”
“I’m not home.”
An Lin said and directly hung up the phone.
Two minutes later, voices came from the stairs, along with the laughter of several little ones.
Wen Ran, two aunts, and Nanny Zhang led four children downstairs; the teacher followed behind. After coming down, Nanny Zhang sent the teacher out, and several little ones ran to An Lin.
Each of them eagerly shouting “Aunt An.”
“Ranran, I can’t stay here for lunch.”
Hearing An Lin’s words, Wen Ran blinked in surprise and then laughed, “Did Qin Mu invite you for lunch, sending flowers and inviting you to eat? An Lin, just enjoy it.”
“Invite my ass, he brought my mom over behind my back. He called just now asking me to go to the airport with him to pick up my mom.”
An Lin was in a bad mood, and her tone wasn’t good.
Wen Ran listened and burst into laughter, “Qin Mu used business tactics on you; An Lin, being angry is useless, you should be happy because it proves Qin Mu cares about you, really wants to spend a lifetime with you.”
“Before, I would have been happy indeed, but now, I just can’t feel happy.” An Lin extended her hand to embrace Momo and said, “He went home to pick me up. I said I’m not at home and didn’t tell him I’m here with you.”
“Pfft—”
Wen Ran didn’t mean to laugh but couldn’t help it.
Her laughter brought a roll of eyes from An Lin, “Ranran, do you think Qin Mu knows I’m here or went to the airport himself?”
She hung up the phone, and Qin Mu didn’t call again; perhaps he went to the airport himself.
“You say you’ve given up on him, see, you’re still holding on to hope.” Wen Ran sighed, shaking her head, “Don’t worry, if Qin Mu can’t find you, then he’s too dumb.”
Qin Mu thought An Lin was lying after An Lin hung up on him.
He got out of the car, took the elevator upstairs, unlocked the door with a key, entered the house, searched around, and did not see An Lin, only saw the yellow roses he had given her in the bedroom.
His lips curved slightly; he turned to leave the house, went downstairs, got in the car, and drove directly to the suburbs.
Since he lived not too far from Mo Xiuchen’s house, it took about ten minutes to get there.
An Lin was chatting with Wen Ran, teasing several children to pass the time. It wasn’t long before Nanny Zhang led Qin Mu into the living room.
“An Lin.”
Qin Mu strode toward the sofa. An Lin lifted her head in surprise and met his deep eyes, suddenly averting her gaze.
“An Lin, hurry up, picking up Aunt is important.”
Wen Ran secretly made a gesture at Qin Mu, smiling and advising An Lin.
Qin Mu’s eyes flashed, he walked up, and dominantly reached out to grab An Lin’s hand. She avoided him, but he wasn’t annoyed and withdrew his hand, just smiling gently, “Let’s go, or we’ll be late, and mom will worry.”
An Lin glared at him angrily, hesitated for a moment, then said to Wen Ran, “Ranran, I’m leaving now.”
“Yeah, when they nap in the afternoon, I’ll go visit Aunt.”
Wen Ran lowered her eyes to look at the little ones. Having them around made it feel troublesome to go out.
Qin Mu saw An Lin turning away from the sofa, walked two steps before he followed her out of the living room. Catching up, his tall figure walked side by side with An Lin, “An Lin, I didn’t tell mom anything, just brought her to G City to play for a few days.”
