Chapter 350: Take Her Along
“We didn’t manage to really have fun the last time we went to the Imperial Capital. Bo Junyan did say that the next time he goes on a business trip, we can have another fun trip. Coincidentally, he mentioned yesterday that he’d be taking a business trip tomorrow, so it should be fine if I tell him that we’re going to go on a fun trip to T Country. Why don’t you go home and pack? I’ll tell him tonight and we can book the flights.”
“Alright.”
That same night, in the Bo residence study.
Because he had to take time out to teach at the university, Bo Junyan became busier than usual and very often had to work late into the night after coming home.
Mu Huan knocked and entered. His head was lowered as he busied himself with work.
She set the cup of coffee before him and started, “Hubby, I’ve packed your clothes for the trip.”
“Uh-huh.” He continued being busy.
Sensing that Mu Huan wasn’t going away, he looked up and asked, “Is there something else?”
“Uh-huh.” She smiled sheepishly as she reached out to put her arms around him. “Hubby, I’ve never been overseas. Today, Xiao Meng and I were looking at pictures of T Country and suddenly we felt like making a trip. In the past, such trips were just pa.s.sing thoughts, but now, there’s Hubby and I can do these things! Hence, we decided to take a trip on a whim. Aren’t you going on a business trip tomorrow? May I go to T Country with Xiao Meng?”
“You’ve made plans with her?”
“Yes, yes!”
Bo Junyan thought for a moment and said, “Let’s take her, then. You can sightsee with her on the days I’m busy, and after I’m done with work, we’ll get someone else to keep her company.”
Mu Huan was stunned. “Hubby, what do you mean?”
“T Country is where I’m headed for my business trip.”
Mu Huan: “…”
What sort of luck!
“What’s the matter?” Bo Junyan looked toward her. She didn’t look keen to go on a fun trip with him.
“Nothing!” Mu Huan smiled as she snapped back from her own thoughts.
The man narrowed his eyes, making it obvious that he knew she wasn’t telling him something.
The lie was too blatant.
Mu Huan: “…”
Some time later…
She hung her head and said, “Last time, I didn’t make good on my word to Xiao Meng that we’d have a fun trip together, and this time around, our plans have come to nothing again. I’m just a little disappointed.”
Bo Junyan: “…”
It was like being rejected again.
He fell silent.
Obviously sensing his unhappiness, Mu Huan wriggled into his embrace and put her arms around his neck. She said like a spoiled child, “Hubby, it’s not that I don’t want to go on a fun trip with you — look, didn’t we have so much fun last time in the Imperial Capital? Only, I’ve always dreamed of traveling with my closest buddy — it’s a dream I hope to fulfill.”
The man looked at her without speaking.
“Hubby… Hubby…” Not knowing what else she could say, Mu Huan put on a pitiful expression.
Wu Xingye was now in a dangerous position. The colleague whom she had paid to carry out the investigation had found out that that organization particularly targeted foreign winners, and some of these ended up in a bad state. She was worried that Wu Xingye would end up in a bad state too.
She had to rescue him quickly.
Bo Junyan had always found it impossible to resist her when she threw a little tantrum. He finally said, “I have a busy schedule and won’t be in the way of you two having fun. It’ll be fine if you just accompany me for dinner in the evenings.”
Mu Huan: “…”
There were many operations that couldn’t be carried out in the day, and these all had to be done at night. And he wanted her company in the evenings…
“What’s the matter? Are you hinting that it’s your dream to not only have fun with your good friend in the daytime, you have to spend the nights together too?” His tone was beginning to sound dangerous.
Mu Huan: “…”
Freaking h.e.l.l!
Did she have any other choice?
