Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg-Chapter 680: Wait for Him to Come Out

"At home, why?" Jiang Xue was a bit puzzled. She had already told Mu Qiancheng that she would be staying home to study during this period and wouldn’t go anywhere. Even grocery shopping and cooking had been handed over to Mrs. Jiang.

After hearing what Jiang Xue said, Mu Qiancheng became even more convinced that the person looking for him was Cheng Li. However, he didn’t tell Jiang Xue and instead said, "Xue’er, I might be home a little later."

"Alright, I got it!" Jiang Xue finished speaking and promptly hung up the phone.

Mu Qiancheng put away his phone and then headed towards the barracks gate. He already knew that outside was Cheng Li, so he didn’t want to deal with her and decided to take another gate, the west gate. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

The west gate was a bit farther from home, but since he didn’t want to see Cheng Li, a little more distance was acceptable.

Meanwhile, Cheng Li was still eagerly awaiting at the east gate, thinking about once Mu Qiancheng came out, how she would make him obediently listen to her without being able to do anything about it.

Yet she had no idea that Mu Qiancheng had no intention of meeting her at all.

On the other hand, Lu Ling, after casually taking a walk, returned to the east gate and said to Cheng Li, "Xiao Li, I’m sorry I couldn’t find Mu Qiancheng."

"Lu Ling, it’s okay. I’ve already called him, and he’ll be out soon."

Hearing this, Lu Ling’s expression changed. She didn’t expect that Cheng Li had some sneaky thoughts. It seemed she didn’t trust her; otherwise, why would she call as soon as Lu Ling left?

Despite her dissatisfaction, Lu Ling didn’t show it on her face. Instead, she cheerfully said, "Oh, is that so? That’s great!"

Cheng Li nodded and then said, "But still, thank you for making the trip. You’ve worked hard!"

"Oh, it’s nothing, just a few steps." Lu Ling waved her hand, not wanting to encounter Mu Qiancheng, so she said, "Since Mu Qiancheng will be out soon, I won’t stay with you, I’ll leave now."

"Lu Ling, wait a minute!" Cheng Li called her back and said, "Can I have your contact information? So I can call you to hang out when I’m free?"

Lu Ling glanced at Cheng Li. Originally, she didn’t want to give it, but upon remembering Cheng Li was Jiang Xue’s rival, she immediately said, "Sure, get a pen and paper."

Cheng Li had already prepared, having borrowed it from the guard, and handed it directly to Lu Ling.

Lu Ling wrote down the Art Troupe’s number and only then said to Lu Ling, "Alright, feel free to call me when you have time. I’ll get going now."

After speaking, Lu Ling hurriedly left, afraid that if Mu Qiancheng came out and saw her with Cheng Li, more trouble would arise.

However, after walking a while, she stopped again. She planned to see what kind of relationship Cheng Li and Mu Qiancheng really had.

After all, from her impression, Mu Qiancheng had always been indifferent to any woman. Thinking this, she hid behind a large tree.

Time ticked away, five minutes, ten minutes passed by, yet there was still no sign of Mu Qiancheng. As Cheng Li watched Mu Qiancheng delay, she became anxious and asked the guard, "Young man, is it far from here inside? How long does it take to walk out?"

"It’s not too far, just takes about ten minutes."

After hearing the guard’s answer, Cheng Li’s heart sank little by little, wondering if Mu Qiancheng had found something out. Otherwise, it had been almost twenty minutes, why hadn’t he come out?

Like Cheng Li, Lu Ling was also getting impatient. Just as she was about to leave, she looked up and was stunned.
