Don't get married if you're reborn.

Chapter 428 Mutual Desensitization (5K)

Mu Qingyang looked at Zeng Wenjie with a smug expression, waiting for him to show an embarrassed look.

Unexpectedly, Zeng Wenjie said slowly and deliberately, "Oh, it seems you have a pretty good memory!"

Mu Qingyang was taken aback.

Then, Zeng Wenjie laughed loudly with a big smile on his face, "Oh my, Mu Qingyang, I like you, I like you so much, what should I do? What should I do!"

They have absolutely no shame.

The sound was quite loud.

This immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding customers, who all grinned from ear to ear.

Mu Qingyang blushed deeply, pursed his lips, glared at the other person, and said, "Shameless thing, no wonder everyone calls you a slutty dog!"

Zeng Wenjie, however, was amused; it would be too difficult to see him make a fool of himself.

Then he continued, "Didn't I say that I had an epiphany the moment I saw you? I even thought of a name for my child!"

Mu Qingyang's face turned even redder.

Zeng Wenjie said, "When I first met you, you were dressed like a mutt, and your jeans were so big they looked like sacks, but that didn't stop my sharp eyes from seeing through your super beautiful legs hidden in those wide pants."

"..."

Mu Qingyang stuffed some fries into his mouth to prevent him from continuing.

Sure enough, although she had overcome her social anxiety, she was still rather introverted and couldn't stand Zeng Wenjie's relentless advances in such a public setting.

"Hehehe... You little brat, you think you can make me blush? Do you think that's possible?" Zeng Wenjie laughed.

"I underestimated your shamelessness." Mu Qingyang muttered under his breath, poking his waist several times with his finger.

After leaving the restaurant, Zeng Wenjie put the gift in the trunk of the Audi A8 and then drove her to the cinema.

Couples should definitely watch romantic movies! When the male and female leads are deeply in love, you can even trigger some kind of offline reward.

While watching the movie, Mu Qingyang transformed into a little hamster. She kept stuffing popcorn into her mouth, one kernel at a time, and finished it in just over ten minutes.

"Are you going to donate another teaching building this year?" Mu Qingyang asked.

“Donate!” Zeng Wenjie said.

"I suggest that after the business alliance is established, a foundation should be set up directly, and donations should go through the foundation. This way, we can avoid them being taken away by others," Mu Qingyang suggested.

Moreover, this can greatly enhance the business alliance's visibility and reputation.

Zeng Wenjie was taken aback upon hearing this, as he hadn't considered this point. He gave Mu Qingyang an approving look and said, "Let's do it your way!"

Mu Qingyang would occasionally offer him some very useful suggestions, and he readily accepted them.

Mu Qingyang probably won't have the chance to become a female CEO in this lifetime, but her excellent business acumen can bring Zeng Wenjie a lot of help.

Zeng Wenjie was disgusted by those organizations. They were all incredibly corrupt. They would donate millions of yuan, but when the recipients received the money, they would only get a few hundred yuan.

Some truly conscientious philanthropists have been viciously smeared, making people feel that the world is in a state of chaos and inversion.

Zeng Wenjie certainly wouldn't use his own money to enrich those idiots. He planned to directly contact the education department of Chongqing Province and then complete the donated school buildings one by one.

With Zhuang Aimin, a powerful figure, overseeing things, and given that his donation to education is paving the way for this year's National Top Ten, it's unlikely that anyone would be foolish enough to try and steal this money.

Then, he glanced at Mu Qingyang thoughtfully.

Since he's the boss of the entire business alliance, shouldn't we consider arranging for Xiao Mu to be the chairman of the foundation or something?
Mu Qingyang is definitely the official couple, and she will receive a lot of attention in the future. Serving as the chairperson of the foundation will help improve her social status.

She might not care too much about these things, but Zeng Wenjie was already making plans for her.

As she left the movie theater, Mu Qingyang secretly let out a small burp, trying hard to tighten her stomach. The combination of cola and popcorn was a bit too much, making her feel like her lower abdomen was being squeezed painfully by her jeans.

Then, Mu Qingyang said to Zeng Wenjie, "I want to buy a little dress!"

Zeng Wenjie glanced at her. She was wearing jeans and a motorcycle jacket, which looked quite neat and trendy, but they didn't quite match her gold hairpin and hair bun. Actually, she was quite pretty.

Her exceptional talent makes it easy for people to overlook any mismatches in her outfits.

"Let's go then, it's still early, let's go shopping and then get a foot massage!" Zeng Wenjie said.

He still quite enjoys foot massages, but he's still apprehensive about being reborn, so he always brings Mu Qingyang along whenever his craving for foot massages kicks in.

Mu Qingyang nodded happily, then pulled Zeng Wenjie to go shopping at a women's clothing store.

She had several outfits personally styled by Zeng Wenjie, but later she also bought several more herself.

After regaining her confidence, her aesthetic sense also returned, and sometimes her outfits even drew praise from Zeng Wenjie.

Then, Mu Qingyang went into the store and picked out a light blue bodycon dress with a Republic of China style. The hem of the dress only reached halfway down her thighs, which made her, who was 173cm tall and whose waistline occupied the 0.618 golden ratio, look stunningly beautiful when she wore it.

This outfit goes perfectly with that updo and the pure gold hairpin; at first glance, it gives off the vibe of a beautiful young woman from the Republican era.

However, since the weather was still cold, he also wore a coat and stockings, which Zeng Wenjie exclaimed was brilliant!
"You're getting better and better at putting together outfits. Looks like I won't need to buy clothes for you anymore," Zeng Wenjie said.

“Then I won’t buy them myself anymore,” Mu Qingyang said immediately.

Zeng Wenjie smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, I'll buy it for you often in the future, alright?"

Mu Qingyang nodded in satisfaction and said, "That's more like it! Here's your chance to show off, go pay the bill."

Zeng Wenjie paid the bill willingly. The outfit looked good, and he was naturally happy to spend the money.

I arrived at the foot massage parlor at 10 p.m., had a 100-minute massage, and finished around midnight, which was just the right time to rest.

I once again ordered the services of two familiar technicians.

After the massage, Zeng Wenjie put the two foot massage sofas together.

Mu Qingyang felt a little scared. Last time, he was forced to be a captain, which made him feel a little ashamed, a little frightened, and a little curious...

Having not seen each other for a few days, it's only natural to have some nice time together. Plus, the foot massage clothes are quite loose, so it would be a shame not to take advantage of them.

With the lights off, the rosy glow on Mu Qingyang's face was faintly visible in the darkness, giving her an alluring quality that was hard to describe.

Zeng Wenjie was satisfied after being a child for another ten minutes or so.

Who isn't a baby at heart?

Xiao Mu felt a bit confused, as if his body was stuck in a swamp and he couldn't get out.

"Do you want to?" Mu Qingyang couldn't help but ask softly, poking him with her little hand.

"If you don't want to be a man, you're not a real man!" Zeng Wenjie scoffed.

Mu Qingyang stopped talking and gently covered the large hand pressing on his chest.

Zeng Wenjie was taken aback, then reached out and rubbed the head of the slightly frightened Mu Qingyang to comfort him.

Then, Mu Qingyang came to his senses and whispered, "Next time!"

Zeng Wenjie suppressed a laugh and said, "Okay!"

The time and the people were right, but the location was wrong. I should have just booked a hotel room!

Indeed, a moderate separation can easily foster an already close relationship and lead to the ultimate breakthrough.

However, Zeng Wenjie would not miss this rare opportunity; he needed to help the shy Xiao Mu desensitize herself appropriately.

He huddled under the covers, while Mu Qingyang, his face flushed, twisted into a ball.

She felt as if a crawling insect had slithered along her neck and all over her body, leaving damp marks everywhere.

"Hey, you said you wouldn't be a simp anymore!"

Zeng Wenjie felt a jolt of fear, but then felt relieved. He reasoned that being Xiao Mu's sycophant wasn't really being a sycophant.

Sure enough, the cold white skin felt good to the touch and tasted even better. It tasted like aspic, smooth, soft and bouncy, with a natural aroma.

"what are you going to do?"

Seeing that Zeng Wenjie was still not resting and had actually crawled out of bed, Mu Qingyang asked in surprise.

"Go take a shower, or something really bad is going to happen!"

Zeng Wenjie coughed and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

He took a cold shower and only then did he manage to calm down.

After he lay down, Mu Qingyang snuggled into his arms and exclaimed in surprise, "It's so cold! Did you take a cold shower?"

Zeng Wenjie said, "I can't sleep tonight without taking a cold shower. Don't you know how unfairly beautiful you are?"

Mu Qingyang snorted, "Who told you to take advantage of me? You deserve it!"

Zeng Wenjie wrapped his arms around her slender waist, finding her soft lips precisely in the darkness. After a long, lingering whisper, exhaustion overcame them, and they fell asleep in each other's arms. The next morning, when Mu Qingyang woke up and looked in the bathroom mirror, her face flushed even more. Good heavens, she had hickeys all over her body—it was incredibly embarrassing!

"I absolutely mustn't let Jiang Haiwang see this, or she'll laugh at me for sleeping in a mosquito nest..." Mu Qingyang thought timidly.

Zeng Wenjie woke up a little later than Mu Qingyang. After paying the bill, they ate breakfast outside.

Then, the two went hiking at Monkey Mountain Park.

There were quite a lot of tourists because it was the weekend.

Zeng Wenjie threw his bag in the car. Those monkeys were no good; they often snatched tourists' bags and such.

Mu Qingyang didn't really care where they went; as long as he could be with Zeng Wenjie, that was great.

As you walk along the stone steps, you can see monkeys darting out of the woods from time to time, perching on railings or by the roadside, enjoying the bread, fruit, and other food that tourists offer them.

"Soaking in hot springs is more fun, right?" Zeng Wenjie winked and teased.

“Mmm, it’s interesting that you get your period while soaking in a hot spring!” Mu Qingyang responded immediately.

Zeng Wenjie's lips twitched. He thought to himself that he would never buy red swim trunks again in his life. Luckily, there weren't many people around that night, otherwise, he would have been humiliated on the spot.

Zeng Wenjie found it amusing to recall Mu Qingyang's shock at discovering the pool water had turned red and questioning whether he was menstruating.

Xiao Mu is probably thinking that they can only be sisters from now on, and can't be lovers, right?
Zeng Wenjie turned on the camera he brought and directed Mu Qingyang to take some photos, which could be developed, framed, and kept as souvenirs.

"It seems like the semi-finals of 'The Voice of China' are going to air today! I wonder if your song will become popular after the show airs?" Mu Qingyang said expectantly.

"The chances of it becoming a hit are quite high," Zeng Wenjie said with a smile.

"Drifting to the North" is, after all, a classic rap song, and he felt he performed quite well, singing with a powerful and rhythmic delivery. Yi Jiacheng's singing skills were also on point, with an ethereal voice, making for a perfect match.

Although Yi Jiacheng was not very willing to collaborate with Zeng Wenjie on this song, he will ultimately be the one to benefit from it.

Since Zeng Wenjie has no chance of developing a career in the entertainment industry and music scene, this run in the semi-finals of "The Voice of China" is his final journey.

After reaching the summit, Mu Qingyang pointed ahead and said, "Shout!"

"What to shout?"

"Shout the same thing you shouted when you went hiking last time."

"Of course I dare to shout, I'm just afraid you won't dare to listen."

"What's there to be afraid of!" Mu Qingyang said confidently, hands on her hips. "Others don't even know my name!"

Zeng Wenjie, utterly shameless, took a deep breath, concentrated his energy, and shouted, "I love Mu Qingyang the most!!!"

Upon hearing this shout, Mu Qingyang was stunned for a moment, and her cheeks flushed red.

"So, do you want to shout?" Zeng Wenjie asked.

"Shout a few more times, just to encourage me, and then I'll have the courage to shout," Mu Qingyang said with a smile.

Zeng Wenjie started yelling and screaming again.

Then, a fruit of unknown origin hit him on the head, and it hurt a little.

A monkey was perched on a tree branch, baring its teeth at Zeng Wenjie, who was screaming like a ghost!

"The Great Sage thinks I'm too noisy, what should I do!" Zeng Wenjie said with a helpless smile.

Mu Qingyang threw herself into his arms, wrapped her arms around his neck, and murmured, "I won't shout anymore, but I still love you the most, the most, the most."

Zeng Wenjie held Mu Qingyang in his arms, feeling very relieved. He smiled and said, "If you don't want to shout, then don't shout. I know everything anyway!"

"Mmm-hmm-hmm-hmm!" Mu Qingyang nodded repeatedly.

Having fulfilled another small promise to Mu Qingyang, Zeng Wenjie was quite happy. He always felt that fulfilling small promises to her brought more joy and satisfaction than any achievement in his career.

The two walked hand in hand down the mountain path and saw a happy family of three along the way.

The child rode on the man's shoulders, while the woman linked arms with him, chatting and laughing.

Mu Qingyang was taken aback for a moment, then stopped, frowned, and thought about it carefully for a long time before smiling helplessly.

Because she couldn't find such a scene in her memory, she remembered that her father had always been rather indifferent to her, even to the point of being completely uncaring.

I did ride on Grandpa Xie's shoulders once, but Xie Jiu's shoulders weren't broad or thick; in fact, they were a bit uncomfortable.

Zeng Wenjie squatted down in front of Mu Qingyang and said, "Come on, let's give it a try too, don't be envious of others!"

Mu Qingyang was both amused and exasperated, and said, "What if you fall and die?"

"Let's become a pair of star-crossed lovers!" Zeng Wenjie laughed.

"No! I haven't lived enough, I haven't loved enough!" Mu Qingyang said, choosing to lie on his back.

Zeng Wenjie carried Mu Qingyang, who was actually quite energetic and could run and jump. She was not light at all and definitely could not have only the claimed 49KG!

After all, with a height of 173cm and a certain amount of muscle mass, how could he only weigh 49kg!
Xiao Mu is also a girl who lies.

Because of my recent frequent close contact with Mu Qingyang, I don't feel as distracted as before when I carry her on my back.

While Zeng Wenjie was desensitizing Mu Qingyang, he also underwent desensitization himself.

On the way, I saw another family of four. The parents were leading a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. The two children were very cute and were often startled by the monkeys on the road.

"I must have been cute when I was little, so why didn't he like me?" Mu Qingyang couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering him.

"I don't know, and I suggest you don't think about it. Anyway, there are plenty of people who like you, so you don't need to try to please anyone," Zeng Wenjie said in a muffled voice.

Mu Qingyang nodded and said, "Am I a little cowardly?"

Zeng Wenjie said, "You are already very strong."

Mu Qingyang perked up and said, "Thank you, my boyfriend!"

Halfway through carrying him, Zeng Wenjie stopped to rest and complained, "You definitely lied about your weight, it's definitely more than 49 kilograms!"

"No, no, I deny it!" Mu Qingyang waved her hand, delivering her standard three-part denial.

Zeng Wenjie took out a cigarette and then tossed the lighter to her.

Mu Qingyang happily accepted the cigarette with both hands and then lit it for him.

After finishing their cigarettes, the two held hands and continued walking down the mountain.

Mu Qingyang took the Nikon camera from Zeng Wenjie and took a few photos of his back as he walked down the mountain.

Zeng Wenjie is also quite talented. His back is slightly wider than that of an average person, and he can do more pull-ups, so he looks quite impressive from behind.

Zeng Wenjie glanced at the photos he had taken and thought to himself, "No wonder Feng Xiao likes to hug him from behind. If she does that, it'll be dark by the time she gets there."

After descending the mountain, Zeng Wenjie asked Mu Qingyang to call his roommates out, and he also called Lin Zhenshan and his buddies over, preparing to treat everyone to a seafood meal.

Relationships between classmates need to be nurtured. Besides, Mu Qingyang has been at school longer than him, so if she gets along well with him, she'll receive preferential treatment.

Although everyone usually takes good care of her, that doesn't mean that Zeng Wenjie, as her boyfriend, doesn't need to do anything in return.

When Ouyang Yun saw Mu Qingyang's new dress, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Damn it, do you have to push your sisters to the brink like this?"

Jiang Yu nodded repeatedly and said, "That's leaving no way for people to survive!"

Niu Fangfang exclaimed, "You're not allowed to wear this kind of skirt, otherwise none of us will want to walk with you anymore."

Mu Qingyang was a little embarrassed and asked, "Is it really that exaggerated?"

Zeng Wenjie comforted Jiang Yu, saying, "You're very pretty too, don't overreact."

Jiang Yu said, "Oh, you're spouting nonsense?! Then praise me, and if I think it's alright, I'll let her go."

Zeng Wenjie said thoughtfully, "Then let me use a foreign language to compliment your beauty..."

Jiang Yu laughed and said, "Sure, I've never been praised in a foreign language before!"

"Yo Xi~"

Zeng Wenjie cleared his throat and then said in a cheeky tone.

After everyone realized what had happened, they burst into laughter.

Jiang Yu pointed at Zeng Wenjie and cursed, "Look, look, I knew this guy was a bastard!"

In the evening, the semi-finals of "The Voice of China" were broadcast.

Zeng Wenjie's text messages and QQ messages exploded again, all asking him why he was eliminated...
