Chapter 14: Undercover Agents
“Hungry?”
Mu Qingwu’s gaze at Xiao Yu softened unconsciously.
“Hungry.”
Xiao Yu blinked pitifully, honestly nodding his head.
“Want to eat takeout?”
Mu Qingwu’s icy expression melted, showing rare warmth.
“Eat takeout…” Xiao Yu’s expression turned strange.
He remembered a legend from his police academy days in his previous life.
A senior returned to school after summer break.
When he walked out of the train station, a flashy middle-aged lady stopped him.
She asked, “Hey young man, want to eat takeout?”
The senior hesitated for a moment, then followed the lady.
That day.
The senior grew up.
And opened the door to a new world…
***
A series of mouth-watering takeout dishes were delivered to the fitness club.
Xiao Yu ate heartily.
He knew this wasn’t ordinary takeout, it was probably from some high-end restaurant.
“Eat slowly.”
Watching Xiao Yu gobble down the food, Mu Qingwu gently scolded, “How old are you? Aren’t you afraid of choking?”
“You seem just like my mom!”
This wasn’t flirting, Xiao Yu was just complaining.
Eating quickly was a habit from his previous life.
Sometimes, cases were urgent, and there wasn’t much time to eat.
When on field duty, you ate wherever you could find something.
Meal expenses came out of your own pocket, no reimbursement.
Unless it was a specific official business trip, then it would be reimbursed!
“Ha!” Mu Qingwu laughed.
After laughing, she was stunned.
It seemed like she laughed more in this short time with this big boy than she had in the past month!
While eating, Xiao Yu couldn’t help but sneak peeks at Mu Qingwu.
He couldn’t help it; Mu Qingwu in workout clothes was too eye-catching.
Plus, he had already imagined her in short shorts, a tank top, long legs in high-heeled sandals, dancing in a nightclub, hair flying.
A proper nightclub queen!
Although they had known each other for just one day, Xiao Yu knew that this ice-cold mature woman would never go to such places in her life.
After eating, the two left the club and went to Mu Qingwu’s villa.
He took a shower and changed into the outfit Mu Qingwu bought for him yesterday.
Xiao Yu transformed, appearing as a handsome and elegant young man.
“Remember what I taught you?”
Once they sat on the living room sofa, Mu Qingwu asked worriedly.
“Of course, I’m not stupid.”
Xiao Yu nodded, “We’ve been dating for a week.”
“How did we meet?” Mu Qingwu pressed.
“One time you went to a restaurant to eat, your wallet was stolen, I happened to be there and caught the thief. Big sis was captivated by my stunning looks.” Xiao Yu grinned mischievously.
“Do you believe I’ll beat you up?” Mu Qingwu glared.
“Alright, I was captivated by big sis’s stunning looks and pursued you first.” Xiao Yu pouted.
Ha, women!
“Okay.”
Mu Qingwu nodded, very satisfied, “What if she asks about your family?”
“Tell the truth, of course.”
Xiao Yu shrugged, “Does Auntie have a snobbish eye?”
“No, she doesn’t.”
Mu Qingwu shook her head, “When my dad met my mom, he was just a poor guy who had just retired from the military. Despite her family’s opposition, my mom stayed with my dad.”
“Wow, Auntie is impressive.”
Xiao Yu was surprised, “I think Auntie and my mom have similar personalities. When my mom married my dad, her family opposed it, not wanting her to marry far away. But she still came to Bincheng and married my dad.”
“Really?”
Mu Qingwu was astonished, “My mom too!”
They stared at each other, faces filled with surprise.
What a coincidence?
“By the way.”
Xiao Yu asked, “When Auntie gets here, we…”
“At most…”
Mu Qingwu bit her lip, “We can hold hands!”
“Okay.”
Xiao Yu didn’t mind. As a guy, he wasn’t losing out.
They weren’t really a couple anyway.
Even though he had transmigrated, his values from his previous life were still intact.
The next moment.
Xiao Yu reached out and held Mu Qingwu’s white jade-like hand.
“You…” Mu Qingwu was both surprised and angry, trying to pull away.
“Don’t move, someone outside is sneakily watching.”
Xiao Yu frowned, “A middle-aged woman, your bodyguards didn’t catch her, and she hasn’t come in to inform you. It should be… Auntie, right?”
“What?!” Mu Qingwu was startled.
It must be her mother; she would definitely do something like this.
Was she suspicious?
It made sense; she had just told her mother she didn’t have a boyfriend recently.
Suddenly having one would definitely raise suspicion.
Thinking of this, Mu Qingwu sighed inwardly.
She leaned over, nestling into Xiao Yu’s arms like a little bird.
If we’re acting, let’s go all the way, might as well let this guy benefit!
“I suddenly have a feeling.”
Xiao Yu reached out, wrapping his arm around Mu Qingwu’s slender waist, making no other moves.
“What?” Body tensed, Mu Qingwu asked.
“Right now, we look like undercover agents meeting under the enemy’s nose.”
Xiao Yu laughed, looking at the beauty in his arms, “Big sis, don’t you think?”
“Ha!”
Her tense body relaxed, leaning softly into the big boy’s arms, Mu Qingwu chuckled, giving Xiao Yu a playful look.
They both froze.
Why did it feel like they were really a couple?
Why… did it feel so natural?
