Chapter 271 - Tending a Piggy



Chapter 271 Tending a Piggy
Murong Yunxi was surprised to find that the car had sped up. Between the left and right cars, their car nearly touched the two cars’ rearview mirrors. However, it’s not over yet. Gong Yu turned the steering wheel to the right, and then he spun the wheel sharply to the left. The car passed through the other two cars, and finally went in one lane.

All this happened in an instant. Murong Yunxi’s face was pale, but Gong Yu was relieved. Murong Yun’s angry voice roared. “Are you crazy? That was dangerous!”

Knowing that she was frightened, Gong Yu patted Murong Yunxi’s head, then gently grasped her cold little hand.

Murong Yunxi’s rapid heartbeat gradually calmed down and she came to her senses. She looked at Gong Yu and said, “I’m fine, concentrate on driving.”

Gong Yu pulled his hand back and put it on the steering wheel.

Murong Yunxi looked into the rearview mirror. The car behind them had disappeared and Gong Yu drove the car at a normal speed.

Until they got home, what happened back then still frightened Murong Yunxi. Before getting out, she could not help reminding him, “Don’t drive like that in the future.”

Gong Yu nodded obediently, just like a docile child. Looking at him, Murong Yunxi couldn’t complain anymore. She got out of the car and went into the house.

After dinner, Murong Yunxi took Gong Yu to Murong Xu’s house, which was next to theirs. She wanted to chat with Gu Yuxuan there.

Just when they left the house, Gong Yu felt that there was a person hiding in the dark looking at them.

Gong Yu tightened his arm around Murong Yunxi. Murong Yunxi didn’t think too much of it, she thought Gong Yu just wanted to keep her warm. She pulled her down jacket tighter, turning around and smiling at Gong Yu. However, she found that Gong Yu’s face was serious and he looked a bit odd.

“What’s the matter?”

Gong Yu embraced Murong Yunxi and whispered in her ear, “There is someone in the dark.”

Murong Yunxi was surprised. She instinctively wanted to look back. Gong Yu stopped her by saying, “Don’t look back! Pretend you don’t know.”

Morong Yunxi understood at once. She smiled and said to Gong Yu, “Darling, are you full tonight? I didn’t see you eat much. I’ll make you some snacks before you go to bed.”

Gong Yu also said casually, “Okay, but I can’t eat anything too greasy, otherwise my body shape will be ruined.”

“Body shape? Your body is perfect. How perfect do you want it to be?”

“Is your beloved husband a beauty in your eyes?”

“No, I just have gum in my eyes.”

They pretended to joke with each other casually, and the sneaky figure finally let his guard down and cautiously followed them.

Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu didn’t go directly to Murong Xu’s house, they took a walk around the small road in the villa area. To be exact, they were walking the person rather than walking around.

Just when the man behind them came to an open crossing, Gong Yu turned around quickly. The man stood in the middle and had nowhere to hide. He was about to run to a side road. After a few strides, Gong Yu went up to the man and grabbed his shoulder with one hand.

The man turned around, bowed his head, not daring to face Gong Yu.

Murong Yunxi also went over and looked the man up and down, who looked excessive and comical.

Wearing a thick black down jacket and an exaggerated hat on his head, he stuffed his entire head in. His face was wrapped in a thick scarf, showing only a pair of small eyes. His bean-like eyes were rolling around and hiding from them intentionally.

Because his cover was too tight, they couldn’t figure out the man’s gender or actual age. He was not tall, 1.7 meters in height, so it was even harder for them to recognize him.

“Who are you? Why are you following us?” Murong Yunxi’s voice was slightly angry, and she stared at him fiercely.

“I, I am nobody.” Judging by his voice, Murong Yunxi knew that it was probably a man. His stuttering voice was probably because he was frightened. Looking so guilty, he must have had bad intentions.

“Nobody? Who’s nobody?” Murong Yunxi was impatient with the man’s words. This loser had the nerve to follow her and Gong Yu.

“…” The man lowered his head and stopped talking.

Gong Yu grabbed the man’s shoulder with his hand and intensified the strength. The pain made the man almost cry out for his parents.

“Don’t! Let go of me, I will tell you!”

Gong Yu’s hand did not lessen its strength as he warned him, “Speak!”

“I, I’m a fan of the two of you. I just graduated from university this year and I have been looking for a job. I finally got a chance to work for a studio. I want to take pictures of you two and get some good materials for the newspaper.”

“Follow us just for the news? How bored are you paparazzi? Is it interesting to invade other people’s privacy every day, or mess with the facts and change them into tidbits? You should find a decent job after graduation instead of being a paparazzo!” Murong Yunxi was full of anger when she heard the man’s words. There has been enough gossip about her, so she did not have a good impression of the paparazzi.

“I don’t want to make tidbits. I don’t want you to be entangled in gossip. I want to shoot something positive and make a collection. Actually, I’ve been paying attention to you for a long time. I know that you’re not what others say outside. I just want to do my job and help you as a fan.”

“We don’t need you to do this, and we don’t want to be famous. We just want to live a quiet life. We are not in show business now, we want to stay away from it.”

“But don’t you think it’s a pity? Show business always has a bad reputation, people just took it as vanity fair. It’s precious that you can still keep a fine reputation, like a lotus rising unsullied from the mud. You are a good example in show business and your story should go public.”

“Well, thank you! There are people like us in show business, many of them need the publicity. Instead of wasting time on us, you should spend your energy on them.”

“But…”

“Well, say nothing more! It’s cold outside. Go home now!”

The man looked at Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu. He was reluctant to go, so he hesitated for a moment before leaving.

Before he could move, Gong Yu suddenly called him. “Wait, stop.”

The man stopped at once, wondering what Gong Yu was going to do, and he was afraid.

Gong Yu strode forward and pulled off the man’s scarf. Murong Yunxi also went forward and checked out his appearance.

Now they knew the man’s intention, they should find out what this person looked like in case the man would do something that might cause a misunderstanding in the future.

However, Murong Yunxi was surprised at what she saw. “You, you’re a woman?”

The woman grinned embarrassingly and said, “Yes, I’m a woman. My parents raised me as a boy when I was young, so eventually, I turned out to be boyish.”

Judging by Mu Qiao’s appearance, it was not easy to tell if she was male or female. She looked like a man, but she had delicate and feminine features. Murong Yunxi only speculated that she was a woman by not having an Adam’s apple.

Mu Qiao was not so pretty. She had a small nose and a pair of small eyes. She was so ordinary that no one would notice her in a crowd. But her harmless appearance was easy to give people a good impression, and they might even trust her at first sight.

“What’s your name?” Murong Yunxi took her scarf from Gong Yu and handed it to her.

“My name is Mu Qiao. Mu is heroine Mu Guiying’s Mu, ‘Qiao’ means trees. My father’s surname is Mu, my mother’s surname is Qiao, so my name is Mu Qiao,” Mu Qiao explained as she wrapped her scarf around her.

It was not hard to see from Mu Qiao’s words that she was actually a very simple person, so Murong Yunxi’s dislike for her was gone.

“Well, you can leave now. Don’t shoot photographs of us anymore. We have nothing to show. We just want a peaceful life. We don’t want to be exposed to the public, for good or bad.”

Mu Qiao nodded reluctantly. Then she said goodbye to Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu, and turned around to leave.

Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu looked at each other and smiled before walking in the direction of Murong Xu’s home. The incident of being followed seemed to be over. However, they didn’t notice that two pairs of eyes were still fixed on them.

Gu Yuxuan has already stopped working for Xing Shang magazine. Since Murong Xu knew she was pregnant and still had to attend the meetings there, he started to protect her from doing anything. She was like a piggy at home every day, doing nothing but sleeping and eating.

“Xiao Xi, I’m almost a pig right now. How long will I have to endure the pregnancy?” Gu Yuxuan couldn’t help complaining to Murong Yunxi. Her look of complaining made Murong Yunxi laugh.

“Well, you don’t know how many people want this kind of treatment. You couldn’t complain more. You can see how happy you are now. Cousin Xu takes care of you so well, you still have a lot of time to do what you want in the future. Good for you!”

As Murong Yunxi consoled Gu Yuxuan casually, Gong Yu and Gu Yuxuan felt sorrow for what she said.

Gong Yu especially felt sorrow as he took Murong Yunxi into his arms and rubbed his jaw on top of her head. “If I have another chance, I will surely make you happier than Xuanxuan.”

Gu Yuxuan also grabbed Murong Yunxi’s hand and said excitedly, “Yes, Xiao Xi, you can give Gong Yu another chance, so that you can have a baby and raise the baby as I do. How excellent! You can have the experience of being tended as a pig.”

Murong Yunxi’s mouth pulled slightly and she gave an angry stare at Gu Yuxuan. “You can have the hobby of being tended as a pig, don’t count me in.”

They chatted and laughed until it was almost nine o’clock. Because of the pregnancy, Gu Yuxuan was drowsy, and she needed to sleep early every day. So she already began to yawn.

Murong Yunxi was considerate and said goodbye to Gu Yuxuan. She got up with Gong Yu and went home.

As soon as they went out, Gong Yu felt a little unusual again. Murong Yunxi was about to ask him if he would like to go back for snacks. Then she saw the serious look on Gong Yu again.

“What happened?”

Gong Yu frowned and said in a low voice, “It seems that there are still people watching us.”
