Chapter 1572: Chapter 440: Little Tricks of Mutual Scheming Between Husband and Wife (Part 2)

Qin Mu just smiled, Anna didn’t insist on getting a verbal agreement from her right away, and turned to leave with Johnson.

As Johnson drove off, Anna lowered the car window and shouted to her, "Qin Mu, I really admire you! Don’t forget our agreement!"

As soon as Anna delivered her perfect line, she put on sunglasses, and Johnson quickly drove away.

Qin Mu’s heart felt tight; why does she feel like she’s being chased by a woman?

"This woman is downright sinister! You really shouldn’t fall for her tricks!"

Xiaomei had been standing behind her for who knows how long and mumbled while she was still in a daze.

Qin Mu turned to look at Xiaomei, who was even more serious as she said to her, "It’s definitely a tactic of advancing through retreat, seeming to make nice with you, when in reality she wants to infiltrate the enemy, first befriending you to create the illusion that she really likes you, and then through you, learn about Mr. Mu, and then take advantage of the situation!"

The last four words were like Xiaomei delivering a sentence to Anna.

Qin Mu had thought the same way before!

In fact, Qin Mu is now somewhat inclined to believe Anna is just like what she and Xiaomei thought, otherwise...

"How many figures was the price you wrote on the contract earlier?"

"Seven!"

Xiaomei replied.

Qin Mu stared at her with wide eyes.

"I slipped and added an extra zero!"

Xiaomei raised her eyebrow, looking innocent.

"Not bad!"

Qin Mu chuckled lightly, thinking that Anna signed the contract without even checking the price—truly straightforward.

"But Qin Qin! You really have to keep your eyes wide open, that woman definitely has no good intentions, I can bet on it!"

"Oh? What makes you so confident you’ll win against me?"

"Haven’t I seen enough women come looking for you? Haven’t seen every kind possible?"

Xiaomei said to her.

"Ha! So you learned the skills from me, and now you’re using them to bet against me?"

Qin Mu gave her a more scrutinizing look, then strode inside.

"Qin Qin, dear Qin Qin! You really must behave! Don’t make friends with her! Don’t eat with her! And definitely don’t fall into her trap to talk about Mr. Mu; I guarantee if this woman gets to Mr. Mu, she’ll leave no remains of him!"

Qin Mu reached the steps, suddenly turned her head, "What if I get to Mr. Mu?"

"You’re just waiting to be swept off your feet, aren’t you?"

Xiaomei stopped, a bit flustered but still whispered it out.

Qin Mu clenched her teeth in annoyance, still hoping Xiaomei would say something nice, then sighed helplessly and continued upstairs.

"You need to be good!"

Xiaomei didn’t forget to coo like coaxing a child from behind.

Qin Mu found it funny, thinking how Xiaomei really treats her like a fool; could she really not think of what Xiaomei can?

But the way Xiaomei looks seems like she’s patched up with Zhao Huai now?

Newlywed couples typically reconcile quickly, after all, arguments on the marriage bed are settled at the foot, plus Xiaomei is pretty easy to placate.

After heading upstairs, Qin Mu received a transfer from Anna,...

Can she say this woman is really proactive?

Since the money’s been taken, regardless of what Anna’s plotting, she’ll have to start designing the dress for her. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Qin Mu opened the computer, searched for Anna’s past red carpet appearances and the gowns she wore at various events, finding they’re all those with a commanding presence.

Qin Mu decided not to change her aura and began considering how to design a gown that surpasses her previous ones.

At noon, Wen Runuan asked Qin Mu to join her at AM for fish soup; Qin Mu wanted to learn more about Anna, so she went. After Wen Runuan ordered the dishes, Qin Mu arrived just in time, and Wen Runuan asked with a smile, "Want to order a couple more dishes?"

"No need! You know my taste! How come you have time to invite me for soup today?"

"I’ve been thinking of inviting you for a while, it’s not that I’m busy, just afraid of disturbing you."

Wen Runuan explained.

"Not at all! By the way, thanks for coming to support the Cheongsam Association event last time; otherwise, I really don’t know how those ladies would have tortured me."

Qin Mu recalled running into those two ladies near the hospital restaurant last time and still felt a bit uneasy.

"Sweat! We’ve known each other so many years, let’s skip the formalities between us!"

Wen Runuan suddenly felt they were being overly polite and said this to Qin Mu.

Qin Mu nodded, then picked up the teapot to fill both their cups.

"What exactly does Anna want from you? Is it convenient to say?"

Wen Runuan asked, holding her teacup in perplexity.

"I can’t figure it out either, but this morning she came to my studio asking me to design a gown for her, the price was set quite high, yet she signed without even looking."
