Chapter 1008: Mu Linger, aren’t you ashamed? (2/2)

“Go on,” Ning Jing said, puzzled. What does she want to tell me by getting so close?

But Mu Linger only asked, “Big sis Ning, Tang Li’s definitely kissed you before, right?”

Urk…

Ning Jing fell silent before she lifted her covers and chased Mu Linger off the bed. “I’m going to sleep. You’re still a girl, don’t ask so many questions.”

“Big sis Ning, what does it feel like to be kissed? I...I dreamed that Qi gege kissed me,” Mu Linger said desperately.

Fortunately the room was dark, or else Ning Jing would definitely burrow into her covers with a tomato-red face. Although she’d had her turns doing Tang Li and been done in turn, she was still embarrassed when it came to telling outsiders about their intimate matters.

“Get off, get off, I’m sleeping. Don’t make so much noise!” Ning Jing said impatiently.

“I’m just asking you in secret. I promise I won’t tell anyone else?” Mu Linger pleaded.

“Wait until you see your big ssi and ask her!” Ning Jing dumped the troubles on Han Yunxi instead, but Mu Linger’s reply was timid.

“I don’t dare to ask her, Long Feiye’s too scary.”

“You’re asking her, not Long Feiye,” Ning Jing rolled her eyes.

“But that...that’s related to Long Feiye! In any case, it’s too frightening! I’m not asking her!” Mu Linger declared.

If Ning Jing wasn’t so heavily pregnant, she would have suceeded in kicking Mu Linger off the bed by now. So it’s hard to ask after Long Feiye’s affairs, but easy to ask after Tang Li’s? What is this girl thinking?

Mu Linger pled two more times, but Ning Jing still refused to tell her anything. In the end, she could only get off the bed herself. Thanks to all the ruckus, Ning Jing was even less sleepy now and couldn’t help but recall how Tang Li used to kiss her. Every time he’d start out pleading for her favors before turning all agressive against her! Her lips quirked up at the memory, but she didn’t dare to move in case Mu Linger caught her awake and came to “molest” her again.

Mu Linger waited for a while before she really thought Ning Jing had fallen asleep. She wasn’t drowsy at all, so she finally got up with a flustered heart and went out to get some air. Ning Jing exhaled in relief once she was gone. In the darkness, she didn’t notice that Mu Linger had left her fake stomach behind.

Filled with thoughts, Mu Linger didn’t realize it either and walked in a straight line after leaving the rooms. She and Ning Jing lived in the back courtyard while Manager Jing and Uncle Cheng lived in the front. Between the two compounds was a small flower garden. Mu Linger was strolling amongst the shrubs while kicking aimlessly at a pebble. Suddenly, a single stone flew in from the right and knocked into her own pebble.

“Who’s there?!” Mu Linger demanded.

She turned but didn’t see anyone. Growing guarded, she prepared to walk again when someone pressed a hand on her shoulder. Mu Linger immediately crouched down and swept out with her leg, but the person behind her jumped up and kicked viciously forward, forcing Mu Linger to dodge backwards. But the figure kept moving forward until she was lying on her back with his foot on her abdomen. Only then did Mu Linger recognize her assailant as Manager Jin!

“Mu Linger, where’s your baby?” Manager Jin demanded icily.

Mu Linger abruptly realized that she wasn’t wearing her false stomach and felt her back turn cold with sweat. She fell apart immediately and grew unwell. Manager Jin stared at her flat stomach before stepping harder, causing her to cry out. “Ouch! It hurts…”

Manager Jin immediately released her and knelt down to muffle her mouth. “If you don’t want to lure Uncle Cheng here, then shut up!”

Mu Linger obediently fell silent, but she couldn’t help screaming when Manager Jin pressed against her stomach with his hand. Fortunately, his other hand was still muffling her mouth, or else everyone in the courtyard would be awake by now. Eyes wide, Mu Linger did her best to drag Manager Jin’s hands away while struggling beneath him. Manager Jin gagged her with one hand while checking her stomach with the other. Because he had no more hands to restrain her, he ended up sitting astride her legs…
