The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief

Chapter 1282 - 644: Mo Han & Wanwan Arc – Lin Musen Comes to See Ning Wan (3)

If that’s the case, then there’s no need. She doesn’t think the food made by chefs outside is better than the ones hired by the Ning Family.

Old Master Ning is extremely picky; if the food doesn’t quite suit his taste, he won’t eat it a second time. So, the chefs in the house are hired at great expense by Old Master Ning, which means the juniors enjoy the benefits as well.

Lin Musen looked at Ning Wan, with one hand in his pocket; his face still held that gentle smile, and he chuckled as he spoke, "I came looking for you not just to have a meal with you."

"Then why are you looking for me?" Ning Wan suddenly became alert.

Lin Musen paused for about half a minute before speaking, "Ning Wan, have your parents ever mentioned that when you were little, your mom arranged a childhood marriage for you?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Wan was momentarily stunned, thinking carefully; it seemed her parents did mention before that when she was just born, her mother had arranged a childhood marriage with a friend, the friend’s child being a son, while she was conveniently a daughter.

Thinking of this, Ning Wan had an immediate ominous feeling, her eyes widened in surprise, staring fixedly at Lin Musen, she said, "Don’t tell me you’re the one designated as my childhood marriage partner."

Lin Musen paused, then innocently spread his hands, "That’s right, though you got a bit wrong. The ones who arranged the childhood marriage were my mom and your mom, not something I could decide on, after all, I was just a few years old back then, still a kid..."

Ning Wan stared at him, nearly gritting her teeth as she spoke, "So now you’ve come to find me to fulfill the agreement our mothers made?"

"That’s also not a bad idea; you’re quite good-looking," Lin Musen laughed.

But Ning Wan looked at him in shock, utterly unprepared for him to actually mean it seriously. She suddenly felt a bit bewildered, hesitating for a while before speaking, "But Lin Musen, you’re seven or eight years older than me, and I’m still underage now. Are you planning on the age difference thing?"

Lin Musen remained indifferent, "I’m not that old, and you seem able to like Mo Han, who’s a year older than me. I’m not even older than Mo Han yet."

Upon hearing Xi Mohan’s name, Ning Wan’s gaze suddenly dimmed; she had mostly overcome the discomfort initially, but now, just hearing his name again, she started feeling uneasy.

Lin Musen noticed Ning Wan’s reaction, feeling his heart skip a beat, remembering Ning Wan liked Xi Mohan, but Xi Mohan disliked this little girl.

Sighing helplessly inside, seeing Ning Wan’s expression growing increasingly sad, almost ready to cry, he stepped forward to stand before Ning Wan. Due to his age, he was a head taller than Ning Wan, and Ning Wan just reached slightly below his shoulder, not even shoulder height.

He bent slightly to meet the girl’s gaze directly, reaching to touch her hair, he said, "If you feel like crying, go ahead, my shoulder is available for you to lean on."

After saying this, he paused and added, "Of course, if your head can’t reach my shoulder, my chest is also available for you, but don’t stain my clothes with tears and snot, I’m a bit of a neat freak..."

Ning Wan, hearing Lin Musen’s words, was initially feeling down but burst into laughter at his comment, raising her hand to pat him while jokingly saying, "Who’s crying? I’m not crying, and besides, who talks like you? Talking like this will easily leave you without a girlfriend."

Lin Musen saw her finally burst into laughter too, his face lighting up with a smile, indifferently responding, "You speak as if I have a girlfriend now, but if you’d like to be my girlfriend, I would have one right away."

Ning Wan now simply had nothing to say, pursing her lips she said, "I never knew you before, the childhood marriage thing was agreed upon by my mom and your mom... And you should know, I like Xi Mohan..."
