CHAPTER 363: CHAPTER 376: WHAT STATUS DO YOU WANT?

An Ran always felt that Instructor Mu must be bored staying at home, so he treated her like one of his team members—was this a case of occupational disease?

Unable to figure it out, An Ran decided not to think about it. She tidied herself up and then went downstairs.

Breakfast was more sumptuous than usual; it must have been specially prepared by Nanny Chen under Mu Xingfeng’s instructions. It was not only all of An Ran’s favorites but also very nutritious.

Perhaps it was due to the exercise, but An Ran had a very good appetite and ate much more than usual, which made Mu Xingfeng’s expression a bit better.

After breakfast, Mu Xingfeng informed An Ran of another piece of news that made her even more depressed.

It was time for Old Mr. Lin’s birthday banquet. The entire Mu Family was to attend Old Mr. Lin’s birthday banquet, and of course, that included her too.

"Instructor Mu, can I not go tomorrow? You see, I’m still injured. Besides, I’m just a girlfriend. At such an important occasion, I don’t want to add trouble without any official status," An Ran tried to persuade him. After all, just the thought of entering the Lin Family made her feel guilty.

She had heard that Old Mr. Lin was a figure as legendary as Old Mr. Mu. Dad Lin was the Chief Guard of the Guard Team, and Mom Lin was also a key member of the Guard Team. What she was doing now was challenging the entire Lin Family.

Lin Ruonan and Mu Xingfeng’s marriage was approved by both families, and the Lin Family was one hundred percent satisfied with Mu Xingfeng. She had suddenly appeared and taken Mu Xingfeng away, and now she had to go to their house to challenge them. Just thinking about it made her liver tremble.

She didn’t even know if she would leave alive. The Chief Guard, with bodyguards who always had to carry guns for protection—what if they got excited and didn’t hold back...

No, no, no, for her own life, An Ran decided she couldn’t go no matter what.

"No official status? What status do you want? I can give it to you."

Mu Xingfeng looked up at An Ran from his laptop with an unruffled demeanor.

There was a rare seriousness in his deep eyes.

An Ran, "..."

Instructor Mu, your focus is completely off! Is it really okay for you to be this flirty?

"No, Instructor Mu, I just think..."

"Are you scared?" Mu Xingfeng’s cold eyes showed no ripples, yet were dark as the sea, and the atmosphere around him turned even chillier.

An Ran drooped her head and fiddled with her fingers, then weakly nodded.

She was scared, how could she not be?

She was only eighteen after all. Although the circle in Pingxi was not small, how could it compare to the Imperial City? Moreover, they were just businessmen.

Now she was supposed to meet the Chief Guard of a nation, and she was going there to provoke them. It would be strange if she wasn’t intimidated.

"An Ran, have you forgotten what you promised me? Forgotten the agreement between us?"

Mu Xingfeng’s voice remained cold, his gorgeous eyes repressing emotion.

A woman of Mu Xingfeng shouldn’t have moments of fear. Even if the sky fell, he would take care of it for her.

"No."

An Ran said "no," but inwardly sighed deeply. She wished she had known his identity beforehand; she would have made sure he provided more insurance.

"That’s good. Lin Ruonan and the Lin Family are your main tasks this time. Don’t disappoint me." Mu Xingfeng glanced deeply at An Ran and then went upstairs.
