64 A Late-night Visitor (1/2)

Jiang Muye expertly set up all the game equipment, grabbed a few bags of jelly, chips and dried fish from who knows where, and took out a bottle of good wine from the wine cellar while he hummed a happy tune.

Everything was ready, and he sat on the floor with his legs crossed and rubbed his hands together. Just as he was about to familiarize himself with the game, the doorbell outside suddenly rang.

Jiang Muye’s face immediately turned black. He didn't answer the door, and instead, directly called Lei Ming and said bad-temperedly, ”Stop ringing! I’ve already promised I’ll be on time tomorrow morning, isn’t that enough? Every day bossing me around like I'm a pet, not even letting me play some games, you don't believe that I won’t be able to take it anymore and quit?”

”Ah? Ring what?” On the other end of the call, Lei Ming was utterly baffled.

Jiang Muye choked and paused. ”You’re not outside ringing my doorbell?”

”I’m pretty far away from your place now, and I’m driving!” Lei Ming was innocent.

”Then who can it be… not many people know I live here…”Jiang Muye murmured suspiciously.

”Don’t tell me your address was leaked? Be careful, don't open the door, what if it’s the media! Ning Xi’s still there!” Lei Ming immediately turned vigilant.

Jiang Muye humphed, not caring in the slightest, ”So what if it’s the media! So what if they see her here?”

Lei Ming said helplessly, ”Muye, I’m not lecturing you, but even if you want to help her, she needs to accept your help first! It’s already clear that Ning Xi doesn’t want to get on your pirate ship1…”

Jiang Muye immediately exploded. ”What pirate ship! Who are you calling a pirate ship!”

The doorbell was still ringing, at five-second intervals in a very regular pattern.

”I won’t talk to you anymore, I’m going to go open the door! It’s so late, who on earth could it be…”Jiang Muye hung up and walked impatiently to the drawing room.
