Chapter 1538: Chapter 1553: Biological Clock

An Ran ignored his mocking words and bright-eyed asked, "You don’t have anything to do today?"

Otherwise, how could you have gone out to buy breakfast?

"I do have something, but I’ll handle it after breakfast and taking you to school."

With what Mu Xingfeng said, An Ran understood that his task must be completed, and the remaining time spent in Nan’an was likely for matters unrelated to the task or insignificant to the assignment. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be blatantly taking her to school.

Speaking of which, when Mu Xingfeng and his team carried out missions, they would often use code names and have camouflage smeared on their faces. In the real world, they would use camo paint to cover their faces so thoroughly that even their moms wouldn’t recognize them. The way it is casually depicted in movies is just to maintain the image of the main characters.

She remembered once during her time with the Nan’an Team, Mu Xingfeng came back with such camo paint on his face that when she opened the door, it scared her. If it hadn’t been at the military compound, she would have really thought it was a home invader.

So, even when he appears without disguise during missions, he wouldn’t be exposed unless the other party was very familiar with him.

"Mu Xingfeng, I can get up to make breakfast. There’s food in the fridge. If you’re not going for a morning run, you can utilize this time to sleep a bit more," An Ran said, handing over the peeled egg.

Last night, she went to bed at ten and didn’t see Mu Xingfeng return to the bedroom until she fell asleep. This morning, he went out to buy breakfast for her, and he mentioned he hasn’t rested for three days. Just a few hours of sleep is surely not enough?

"My biological clock is already used to it. If I wake but don’t get up, I’m afraid you won’t be able to sleep either," Mu Xingfeng said, calmly taking the egg.

An Ran’s action of peeling the egg just froze there.

Mu Xingfeng watched the little girl’s paused action and calmly continued speaking, "After all, men tend to have a bit less self-control in the morning."

An Ran was not just stunned; her little face turned red, and she rolled her eyes before looking down, "Shameless."

Ever since living apart from Mu Xingfeng, An Ran found that every meeting with him revolved around inappropriate jokes. It refreshed her worldview, as she realized that a man once so cold and elegant had become so glib, always making suggestive comments.

"Oh~" Mu Xingfeng chuckled softly, "Wife, I’m stating a fact. How does that make me shameless? As a medical student, you should know, right?"

The last "right" had a heightened syllable, and there was a deep disdain in the questioning tone, implying that An Ran, as a student of the medical department, should be able to discuss such matters with seriousness just like him. How is that such an unbearable outrage?

An Ran was again left dumbfounded by his teasing tone. If it weren’t for the fact that they hadn’t seen each other for over a month, she really wanted to throw the egg in her hand at his handsome face.

After breakfast, the timing was just perfect. Mu Xingfeng took An Ran to the school gate and watched her enter before heading to the Wenshan Group.

By that time, all the recordings from Lu’s Hotel had been backed up, and he needed to verify them personally.

Before reaching the Wenshan Group, his phone rang. It was Lin Junyang.

During the mission, he used another phone; the personal phone was only turned on last night. Calling at this time evidently meant he knew the task was complete.

"Hey, Second Brother, are you with Tuzi?"
