Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 89: Chapter 99: What Happened to Playing Dumb?

My buddy found happiness, of course he was happy for Mu Xingfeng. But how should he explain it to his older sister? During dinner tonight, his older sister hinted for him to keep an eye on Mu Xingfeng for her. His sister had been pursuing Mu Xingfeng for nearly twenty years; he really couldn’t bear seeing her hurt.

But love isn’t something that guarantees reciprocation just because of effort. Mu Xingfeng doesn’t like his sister, what could he do?

Lin Junyang felt like there were two little figures in his head, constantly fighting.

In the end, Lin Junyang decided to play dumb and let things take their course. He couldn’t let his sister get hurt, nor could he destroy Mu Xingfeng’s happiness; he could only play dumb.

But even if he was playing dumb, he could still check on Mu Xingfeng, right? If he remembered correctly, the door across hadn’t made any noise for a while. It was so late already, where could he be?

Lin Junyang fished out his phone number and dialed...

Mu Xingfeng was indeed staying at Longteng Xinyuan. He had drunk some alcohol, and An Ran felt uneasy about him driving back to the Guard Team. Besides, this was his home in the first place; she was already very grateful that he had a place to stay. She couldn’t just kick him out because of her own concerns.

Mu Xingfeng didn’t refuse much; getting the little girl’s care and spending more time with her, he couldn’t ask for more.

Originally, he planned for An Ran to stay in the master bedroom, but the little girl insisted on going to the guest room. Watching her carrying the quilt, Mu Xingfeng shook his head helplessly — the little girl’s guard against him was still significant.

At that moment, the phone rang. Seeing it was Lin Junyang, he thought something had happened with the Guard Team. When he answered, he heard Lin Junyang’s exaggerated voice: ”Boss, you’re going to be a famous man! All the girls in the Empire are studying ways to seduce you now.”

Mu Xingfeng frowned: ”Speak properly.”

”Uh, Boss, where are you? Did you come back to the Guard Team today?” Although it was phrased as a question, it had a tone of certainty.

”Hmm, I’m in the city,” replied Mu Xingfeng.

”In the city? You wouldn’t be with Tuzi, would you?” Lin Junyang instinctively asked, suddenly realizing that he was supposed to be pretending to play dumb. But since he had already asked, he didn’t regret it; he was too curious.

”Hmm, school is on break, and she doesn’t have a place to stay. So, I brought her to Longteng Xinyuan.” Mu Xingfeng always spoke candidly to his brother, Lin Junyang.

”Awoo—” Lin Junyang let out a howl on the other end: ”Boss, you must have planned this all along. I wondered why you were house-hunting near Nan’an University. Now you’re living together! What about my poor sister?”

”What does this have to do with Ruonan?” Mu Xingfeng was confused.

”Boss, don’t tell me you don’t know my sister likes you?” Lin Junyang asked. His sister’s feelings had been so evident; even a blind person would have noticed.

”She likes me, but I don’t like her,” Mu Xingfeng answered calmly.

Lin Junyang was almost shocked speechless. God... this guy is so damn brazen. Saying ”She likes me, but I don’t like her” in the face of two family friends’ relationship, only Mu Xingfeng could say such a thing.

For Mu Xingfeng’s high intelligence but low emotional quotient, Lin Junyang silently lit three candles for his sister.

After thinking it over, he still said, ”Boss, I know you don’t like my sister. But it’s almost common knowledge in the whole compound that my sister has liked you since childhood. She’s been chasing you for nearly twenty years. Initially, I didn’t intervene because I thought one day you might see her goodness and accept her. But if you truly don’t feel anything for her, or you’ve already found someone you love, I hope you can make things clear to her.”
