Chapter 346: Running away from home

Xu Xiaoran's voice didn't pause, and her eyes were innocent, "You told me yourself."

"Myself?" Bai Pu raised her eyebrows in confusion. She had not contacted anyone since she woke up.

"Didn't you tell me about looking for a house before? After that, I said hello to your property management company. He contacted me as soon as he saw you coming back, so I knew about it naturally." Xu Xiaoran rolled his eyes and took out his hands as he spoke.

He took out his cell phone and took a photo of her.

The gesture was secretive and not noticed at all.

Bai Pu didn't expect that she could be so attentive. He was so moved that he didn't forget to let her give full play to her value. "Now that you're here, why are you playing with your phone? Why don't you hurry up and get to work?"

Xu Xiaoran quickly sent a message and then walked around the living room with a smile on her face, "Okay, okay, okay, you are successful now and have learned how to run away from home."

"What are you running away from home for?" Mu Qingyun had been watching them chatting with a smile. Hearing this sentence, he asked unexpectedly.

Bai Pu secretly glared at Xu Xiaoran.

What nonsense are you talking about?

She laughed dryly, "It's nothing, I'm just tired of living here and want to find a new place."

Mu Qingyun nodded. He agreed with her decision, not for anything else, but because he had seen her being followed before, and this area was obviously not safe.

Seeing Bai Pu pumping air into the compression bag, he walked over and said, "Let me help you."

When they squatted together, their backs were somewhat close.

Xu Xiaoran took another photo and sent it to Huo Jinchuan.

The other end had already received one in front of me. When I saw this one again, I couldn't help but be confused, "Why do you keep sending me white grapes?"

Xu Xiaoran resisted the urge to roll her eyes, [My phone has no memory, please save it for me.]

Huo Jinchuan smiled playfully, "What should I do if my phone has no memory?"

【Then find a good friend and ask him to save it for you.】

Xu Xiaoran hinted at this, and if Huo Jinchuan pretends not to understand, he is just looking for trouble.

He raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, my eldest lady."

Scratching his chin with his fingers, he resignedly packaged the photo and sent it to a certain contact.

Bai Pu packed all the big items, and only looked for clothes that were in season. Some of the items he packed away were taken away now, and the rest would be taken care of later.

The newly rented place is also an apartment, with a larger space and fine decoration. The only disadvantage is that there is no balcony, so you can only dry clothes indoors.

But this was easy to handle, so Bai Pu placed an order for a dryer.

On the sofa, Xu Xiaoran slumped there, swiping at her cell phone to select takeout, and kept muttering, "We have been busy all morning, and this is what you want to treat us to?"

"Milk tea can't stop your mouth, can it?" Bai Pu pinched her lips to prevent her from speaking anymore.

She was also a little apologetic and smiled sheepishly at Mu Qingyun, "Let's wait until next time. This meal is indispensable."

Mu Qingyun wore a shirt as base layer, took off her jacket, and folded the sleeves to her elbows.

He looked thin, and when he started working, he realized that he was quite strong. He didn't feel tired after working all morning. He took the fruits he brought along the way to the kitchen to wash them, and his gentle voice came to me like the wind, "If you can do nothing to me,

You're so polite, I'll treat you to any meal you want."

Bai Pu scratched his cheek, thankful that his back was turned, otherwise it would have been awkward.

She couldn't answer this, Xu Xiaoran was still snickering beside her.

Just as Bai Pu tilted her side, before he could say anything, his phone suddenly vibrated.

The call came at just the right time. She picked it up without looking, "Hello?"

There was silence over there, no one spoke.

Bai Pu frowned, put down his phone and looked at the call, only to realize that it was Lu Zhaohe calling.

Her mood suddenly changed.

He had already left, why did he call her at this time, but she happened to answer the call.

I could only ask, "Mr. Lu, what can I do for you?"

Her voice was very calm, so calm that it was almost deliberate.

Lu Zhaohe spoke slowly, his voice was light and hoarse, "You're just going to leave me as a patient here?"

Bai Pu's eyebrows jumped.

She wasn't afraid of Lu Zhaohe's cynicism, but she was afraid that he would say some ambiguous words that no one would know how to respond to.

After thinking for a while, he maintained an indifferent attitude and said, "Mr. Lu, I am just a small assistant. I was able to stay last night out of humanitarianism."

Lu Zhaohe was noncommittal and spoke in an understatement. If it weren't for the hoarseness in his throat, he wouldn't have sounded sick at all.

He said, "I thought about the physical repayment you mentioned yesterday, but it still feels a bit wrong."

Bai Pu, "?"

A big question mark appeared on her forehead, and there was still a trace of anger. She felt that Lu Zhaohe was messing around.

But he didn't give her a chance to speak, so he continued, "From the moment you signed a contract with the company, you became my assistant. This includes both work assistant and life assistant."

"What's the meaning?"

"It means that you have already sold yourself to me, so how can you get the physical reward? Now, I hope you will fulfill your duties as an assistant and come and take care of me."

Bai Pu pursed his lips.

There was no trace of emotion in her eyes.

No matter how he spoke, she would not go over and even wanted to hang up the phone directly.

However, the other party seemed to have anticipated her thoughts, and Lu Zhaohe's cold and almost indifferent tone sounded again, "Come here, and I will be fired for not doing your job, you choose one yourself."

After saying that, he hung up the phone, one step ahead of her.

Bai Pu was stunned there, looking at the phone screen in bewilderment.

If the call record hadn't been there, she would have thought it was a hallucination.

Has Lu Zhaohe lost his mind? He would rather threaten her than force her to go.

Did her cynicism last night really offend him? Otherwise, why would he be so unhappy for her now?

"Bai Pu, come here and try it?" Mu Qingyun's voice came. He cut the cantaloupe into small pieces, and poured yogurt with bananas and apples to make a fruit scoop.

When Bai Pu turned around, he was met with his smile as clear as wine.

The coffee table has been tidied up, and in addition to the fruits, takeaways will also be arriving later.

Bai Pu opened his lips.

Xu Xiaoran's eyes were bright and she raised her eyebrows slightly and asked deliberately, "What's wrong? Whose phone number was that just now? Is it important?"

Bai Pu bit his lip in confusion, but finally spoke, "The boss has something to ask me for. I have to go out. You two will eat first later. Is it okay if I come back as soon as possible?"

Mu Qingyun was stunned for a moment, then said immediately, "It's okay, we'll wait for you to come back together."

"No, no, I'm not sure when I'll be back." Bai Pu frowned and hurriedly went to change her shoes. Lu Zhaohe's threat was very superficial, but he pinched her seven inches.

After all, isn’t what she fears most is being fired?

She puffed up her cheeks and walked away holding her breath.

Mu Qingyun watched her close the door.

Xu Xiaoran rested her chin with her hand, not surprised at all by her choice. Looking at Mu Qingyun's profile, she clicked her tongue in her heart, feeling some subtle sympathy.

Just as he was about to say hello, Mu Qingyun turned around.
