Chapter 148 Should we get rid of him...?
"Young master, the engagement banquet is tomorrow, and the wedding dress has been prepared for you."
As the car drove along, one horn followed another. In the rearview mirror, Mu Jing was applying medicine to Shen Qingqing.
With President Mu's instructions in mind, Butler Li casually brought up the matter.
The Mu family, as the most powerful family in S City, has influence throughout the entire Z country.
The Jiang family is a renowned pharmaceutical family in S City, and the marriage between the two families was personally arranged by President Mu.
As the girl's arm trembled slightly, Mu Jing gently spread the ointment on her delicate skin.
"pain?"
A cool, refreshing sensation spread across the needle marks on Shen Qingqing's arm.
Shen Qingqing shook her head.
The boy handled it with utmost care, as if it were a fragile treasure, moving it gently.
If Little Lazy hadn't known it was just a tiny pinhole, it probably would have thought its host's arm was gone.
【got engaged?】
[Yes, host. In the original storyline, Mu Jing was engaged to Jiang Yiyi when he was 17 years old.]
After the wound was treated, Mu Jing took the girl's hand in his own; it was soft, and he liked that feeling.
It was as if he was no longer alone.
"Mu Jing, do not get engaged to Jiang Yiyi."
Shen Qingqing suddenly said something, her tone was calm and stiff, but to Mu Jing it sounded like she was being coquettish.
"why?"
The boy feigned confusion, not caring who he was engaged to; his life was not up to him.
But if Qingqing doesn't like it, then he won't get engaged.
"I'm going to get engaged to Song Jia."
The moment these words were spoken, the atmosphere around them became noticeably awkward.
Butler Li immediately looked away, focusing intently on driving, and dared not look back.
This Miss Shen...
They initially thought she was trying to curry favor with the Mu family, but now it seems this girl was probably kidnapped by their young master.
After all, he remembered that a few years ago, the young master had also brought home a girl, that girl...
Wait a minute, this Miss Shen looks somewhat similar to the girl from a few years ago. Could they be the same person?
Well... I'll have to go back and check it out.
Was what I did wrong?
Yes, host.
This was the first time the host had realized his mistake, just as Xiao Lan thought the host was about to say something to make amends.
Shen Qingqing released Mu Jing's hand and said in a serious tone, "Song Jia can accompany you."
"You two can be together."
Mu Jing ignored her words and stubbornly held the girl's hand again.
Shen Qingqing stared at her hand being held, then looked at Mu Jing, thinking that he hadn't understood what she meant.
"If you can't hold hands with me, you can hold hands with Song Jia."
Her mind raced, analyzing that saving the male lead would definitely require the female lead, but in the original story, the female lead, Song Jia, did not interact with the male lead.
There is a high probability that after the female lead and the male lead get together, the male lead will not disappear or will be able to find true redemption.
Although Shen Qingqing didn't quite understand what her brain was saying, the answers that came to her mind when she was doing math problems were never wrong.
Following her train of thought must be correct, and besides, she was too lazy to even think about it.
Normal tasks are just a piece of cake.
[Host, normally, happiness level is a reference standard for rescuing the target of a mission, but... is it possible that this female lead...]
Xiao Lan stopped halfway through her sentence, and even now, she still doesn't know what kind of feelings the male protagonist has for his host.
Human beings are a complex entity.
It's possible that the female lead will need to be with the male lead in the future to complete the mission of saving him.
【? 】
Just pretend I didn't say anything.
Laziness can be exhausting.
"do not know."
Mu Jing held Shen Qingqing's hand tightly, their fingers intertwined, and no matter how much Shen Qingqing moved, she couldn't break free.
"We'll get to know each other later."
Unable to break free, Shen Qingqing became too lazy to move.
"Do not want to."
Mu Jing rested his head on Shen Qingqing's shoulder.
"You'll think about it later."
Feeling the vibration of the girl's vocal cords, Mu Jing pressed his ear against the girl's neck.
His expression was somber.
"Do not want to."
To Butler Li, the conversation sounded like a parent disciplining a naughty child.
He could understand all the words, but he really couldn't understand the meaning of this conversation.
After trying to persuade her for a long time, Shen Qingqing slumped into her chair and closed her eyes.
so tired.
Talking is tiring.
Hidden quest progress 60%.
After Mu Jing and Song Jia get together, the hidden mission may be completed.
Main quest progress 60%.
Shen Qingqing recalled the original owner's death list.
1. Make friends.
2. Leave home.
3. Get into university.
It's not difficult either.
Okay, she's already done her best today. Let her handle the rest tomorrow.
late at night.
The girl on the bed had a furrowed brow.
Shen Qingqing slept soundly and had a very comfortable dream, but for some reason her body felt heavier and heavier.
His entire body was restrained and he was unable to move.
She tried hard to open her eyes, but she couldn't.
Mu Jing felt very uncomfortable about today's conversation. In his opinion, Qingqing didn't want to be with him and wanted to push him to someone else.
He looked up Song Jia.
Without any special background, does Qingqing like her?
If Xiao Lan knew what he was thinking, she would probably be shocked. His thought process was a perfect match for his host.
Mu Jing doesn't like Song Jia. He met her once before when Qingqing saved her, so it seemed like he cared about her.
Moreover, after this incident, Qingqing would occasionally distance herself from him.
Specifically, he enjoys holding hands, but he's not one to give in to her advances.
Saving just him would have been enough; why help the others?
"Should we get rid of it..."
The boy hugged the girl from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, a hint of bloodlust flashing in his indifferent eyes.
He bit the girl's shoulder, then returned to normal the next second, reducing the force.
The engagement banquet was held the next day.
In the huge hotel.
The expensively dressed man and woman were talking.
Shen Qingqing sat to one side and dozed off.
The engagement party had nothing to do with her, but Mu Jing insisted on dragging her along.
"Oh, whose young lady is this?"
A pretty girl walked over.
As soon as she appeared, all eyes in the crowd turned to her.
"The eldest daughter of the Song family is indeed as beautiful as the rumors say. I wonder what about the second daughter of the Song family..."
"Keep your voice down. Everyone knows that the second young lady of the Song family has been to prison and killed someone."
The two of them spoke in increasingly lower voices.
Song Qian looked arrogant. "Second Miss? Hmph, that bitch is not worthy of my status as a young lady of the Song family."
"Hey, I'm talking to you."
Wearing a high-end custom-made gown that looked very expensive, she sat in the corner the whole time, clearly having sneaked in; the gown was probably fake too.
Shen Qingqing still ignored her.
No one in her life has ever dared to treat her like this; this person probably doesn't want to live anymore.
"Waitress! Throw her out!"
Before the waiter arrived, Shen Qingqing woke up, startled awake by Song Qian's loud voice.
"Who is this person?"
"Isn't that the dress she's wearing the one that the designer spent six months creating recently?"
"You know what, it really does look quite similar!"
These people either come from prominent families or have connections within their families.
They can be said to know a lot about luxury goods.
Shen Qingqing had no idea what they were whispering about. She was just a little sleepy and had only taken a nap when a group of people started staring at her.
