Chapter 602: Extra 015 Mu Cidian, are you subscribing monthly?

Mu Cidian turned to look at Xin Zaozao.

Xin Zaozao stood not far off, looking at him with an indifferent gaze.

The two locked eyes for a few seconds.

Mu Cidian asked, “How much do you think I’m worth?”

Xin Zaozao’s eyes shifted slightly.

She always knew that Mu Cidian had a knack for discussing matters.

One question from him had turned the tables on her.

She fell somewhat silent.

Thinking about everything that happened last night.

Who knew that her consciousness had been scattering all night, sometimes not even knowing what she was doing, what exactly she had done to the man in front of her, but upon awakening, each scene was still so clearly playing in her mind, hard to shake off.

At this moment she couldn’t help but take another look at Mu Cidian.

At this moment she even thought that considering Mu Cidian’s present physical condition, it was surprising that he was still alive, that he could still stand up.

She said, “According to the market price, I will only give you 50,000 yuan.”

This price was already considered top-tier among gigolos, the pinnacle price for spending a night together.

It was not that she saw him as having any top-tier advantage, but she had indeed gone a bit overboard last night……

Mu Cidian said, “It’s all fine.”

No matter what you say, it’s all fine.

Xin Zaozao looked at his nonchalant demeanor.

Mu Cidian always possessed this kind of attitude, where she could never get a sense of his emotions.

In fact, Mu Cidian was such a complicated person, she didn’t need to ponder what he was thinking.

As far as Xin Zaozao was concerned, he was nothing.

And she didn’t want to waste that much time.

She turned around, walked inside the room and took out her cell phone.

After a while.

Mu Cidian received a message on his phone, a bank transfer alert.

50,000 yuan.

Mu Cidian looked at the string of numbers.

He said, “You should eat some congee. It’ll help soothe your stomach.”

Xin Zaozao didn’t respond.

Mu Cidian felt that Xin Zaozao probably wouldn’t eat what he cooked.

He turned around and left.

Xin Zaozao watched him with the same cool indifference.

After Mu Cidian left, Xin Zaozao turned to look at the congee on the dining table.

Her stomach did feel somewhat uncomfortable, she probably vomited too violently last night, now her stomach felt completely empty, not to mention all the physical exertion from last night……

She seated herself at the dining table.

She and Mu Cidian had ended up in bed together again.

She found it somewhat ironic.

And she didn’t think there was anything wonderful to recall about last night.

It was just a release, a merciless release of her own desires.

As for Mu Cidian…

Maybe he didn’t even have any desires.

She picked up the spoon and took a bite.

The taste was much better than she had expected.

The crisp, refreshing taste of the cucumber made her stomach feel much better.

Initially, she intended to eat just a bit to fill her stomach, but she ended up eating the whole bowl of congee clean, even getting up to serve herself a second bowl if there were any left.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

She carried the small bowl and was just about to enter the kitchen.

There was a doorbell sound from outside the door.

Xin Zaozao put the bowl on the kitchen counter and opened the door.

Outside the door.

Mu Cidian was standing there.

Xin Zaozao frowned, “Is the money too little?”

Mu Cidian inwardly laughed.

In Xin Zaozao’s eyes, he probably was seen as only being worth money.

He took out a pack of contraceptive pills.

Xin Zaozao looked at the pills, her gaze pausing.

Mu Cidian said, “We didn’t use any protection last night, these are emergency contraceptives effective for 72 hours. The salesperson said they don’t have side effects.”

Xin Zaozao stared at the contraceptive pills for a moment, frozen.

In fact, she had forgotten about this.

Perhaps she would have recalled it later.

But at this moment, she really didn’t expect Mu Cidian to prepare such a thing for her.

She took it from his hand.

Mu Cidian was just about to turn around and leave.

He thought Xin Zaozao would not want to see him for even a second longer.

“Mu Cidian.” Xin Zaozao suddenly called him back.

Mu Cidian looked at her.

“Do you offer a monthly package?” Xin Zaozao asked.

Mu Cidian thought he might have misheard her.

“You heard right, I asked if you’re available on a monthly basis? Occasionally accompany me to bed, and take care of my meals and daily life,” Xin Zaozao stated bluntly.

Mu Cidian was still doubting whether he had heard it correctly.

“What about Song Lifei?” Mu Cidian asked.

“I can’t afford him,” Xin Zaozao replied bluntly.

Mu Cidian pursed his lips.

He knew that wasn’t what he was asking about.

“Just think it over,” Xin Zaozao left it at that and said no more.

She went straight to the kitchen to serve herself porridge.

Mu Cidian watched her retreating figure.

He felt that everything that had happened from last night up until now had completely exceeded his expectations of Xin Zaozao.

In his mind, Xin Zaozao would want to distance herself from him as much as possible.

Xin Zaozao didn’t get a response from Mu Cidian.

She continued to eat her cucumber porridge slowly, one spoonful at a time.

These years, she had indulged in many extravagant and exotic foods, many that some people might never taste in their lifetime, but this was the first time she wanted to savor this particular flavor.

She couldn’t quite put her finger on the taste, but she… wanted to eat it.

She wanted it to be a regular part of her meals.

“Do I need to move in with you?” Mu Cidian suddenly asked her.

Xin Zaozao’s brows twitched slightly.

She suddenly fell silent again.

She proposed the idea of him becoming her bedmate, but once Mu Cidian seemed to agree, she started having second thoughts.

Mu Cidian just looked at Xin Zaozao.

He could see Xin Zaozao’s hesitation.

He thought that maybe Xin Zaozao was just acting on impulse.

Because of what happened last night, because of the bowl of porridge in front of her, or maybe because of the birth control pills he brought her, which implied that he didn’t want any deep involvement, if they maintained their sexual relationship, there would be no emotional commitment… But once she calmed down, she might regret it.

At that moment, Xin Zaozao nodded, “Hmm, you can move in tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

“Have you thought about the price?”

“One hundred thousand,” Mu Cidian looked at her, “per month.”

“I’ll give you two hundred thousand if you quit your job,” Xin Zaozao proposed.

Mu Cidian remained silent.

“I don’t want to have to come home from work every day and make dinner for you,” Xin Zaozao stated bluntly.

“Okay.”

“Mu Cidian.” Xin Zaozao called his name.

Her voice was cold and emotionless.

Mu Cidian looked at her.

“You better ask the young master at your KTV what being a kept man entails.”

“Okay.”

Xin Zaozao didn’t say anything more.

Nor did Mu Cidian.

He turned around and left.

He hailed a taxi and got in.

He never imagined that his reunion with Xin Zaozao would begin this way.

Was their separation of three years so long that they could forget everything they had been through together?

His heart was unsettled.

He didn’t dare to think about it any deeper.

Maybe Xin Zaozao didn’t have any emotional upheaval, maybe she just wanted to find a live-in bedmate to take care of her daily activities, maybe she was just trying to humiliate him in this way, or maybe she thought this would make her feel more secure against him.

He was well aware that Xin Zaozao had always been on guard against him, whether it was three years ago or now. She was afraid that if he ever rose to power, he would retaliate against her, and obviously, keeping him within her reach to monitor his every action was more reassuring to her.

He tried to calm himself down.

Kept his emotions in check, so as not to think too much about their emotional entanglements.

Xin Zaozao had no feelings for him… not anymore…

He returned home.

Wan Quan was singing along with her face mask on, getting up lazily.

Apparently, their improved conditions had lifted her spirits.

“Where were you all night? Why did you come home so late?” Wan Quan asked with concern.

“I pulled an all-nighter working on a proposal last night,” Mu Cidian said.

“Take care of yourself, you have been released from prison for such a long time, you are still so thin, it breaks my heart. Even if it’s for making money, you can’t neglect your health, you know health is the most important, right?” Wan Quan said with an uneasy heart.

“I know,” Mu Cidian said.

Then he paused before he spoke again, “Mom, I might have to be away for a while.”

“Where are you going?” Wan Quan was somewhat worried.

For her, he was the only family she had left.

Without her son, she didn’t know what her life would amount to!

“Don’t worry. The company is sending me on a business trip out of town. The salary would be doubled, and there would be many more benefits,” Mu Cidian explained, “It’s just that it’s far away, I might only be able to come back once a month.”

“I see,” Wan Quan was still somewhat unwilling to let him go.

“I will send you money every month. While I can earn money now, I want to earn more. When I have enough capital, I can strike out on my own. By that time, I can always be with you.”

Mu Cidian really thought that Xin Zaozao’s offer wouldn’t last long.
