Chapter 208: A Familiar Scene
In the next year-end audit of Mu's, Mu Ningyuan never appeared again.
Miao Miao got the same meaningful attention when she went to work the next day, and Ye Hong didn't even shy away from asking Miao Miao: "You and Mu Ningyuan, are you planning to remarry?"
Miao Miao was surprised: "Why do you have such an idea?"
"Yesterday at noon, so many people had lunch, and you and Mu Ningyuan left early. I called you, or Mu Ningyuan asked for your leave. If you two don't remarry, what position and capacity will he take for you to ask for leave? Otherwise, they can still be friends!" Ye Hong looked at Miao Miao with the look of "don't hide it from me, I know everything".
Miao Miao squinted, remembering that Mu Ningyuan seemed to have answered a phone call at noon yesterday, but her mind was dizzy at that time, and she didn't care what Mu Ningyuan said.
It turned out to be a matter of helping her ask for leave.
"It's just a leave call, and it's not the same who calls. Miao Miao smiled casually.
"But I also heard from the people on Mu's side that Mu Ningyuan disappeared for most of the afternoon yesterday. Ye Hong glanced at Miao Miao incomprehensibly, "In the end, Mu Ningyuan called himself and said that he was in the office - the lonely man and the widow got along in the office for nearly four hours, and finally didn't answer any calls or reply to any text messages - you can't tell me, you are chatting under a quilt, right?"
"I was asleep. Miao Miao shook her head, "It's not that you don't know how much I drink, what can a drunk person do." ”
"Are you really asleep?"
"I literally fell asleep. Miao Miao's face was full of helplessness, "Why don't you believe me?"
"Because you've got a face that can tell a lie as the truth. ”
"If I had this ability, I would have gone to the pit to make a fortune, how could I still work overtime every day. ”
She interrupted the past in a few words, and completely denied everything that happened between herself and Mu Ningyuan. She knew that Mu Shi and her colleagues in the firm were probably all guessing what the situation was between herself and Mu Ningyuan, but she thought that she had made it very clear.
What's the situation, it's just a little unexpected intersection in the middle, and then it calms down.
On the weekend, Mu Ning couldn't stand Xu Ning's phone bombardment, and finally went home for lunch.
Mo Jingyu is also there, but she is now learning to be obedient, and she no longer runs to him to say things like "childhood sweethearts have no guesses" and "feelings can be copied and pasted". Mu Ningyuan didn't know if she had really figured it out or if it was just a temporary peace, but for him, it didn't matter.
In the afternoon, they barbecued in the garden, and Xu Ning and Mo Jingyu drank afternoon tea in the pavilion.
The scene is similar.
Mu Ningyuan looked up at the pavilion not far away, his eyes were a little dark.
The people who used to sit there were Miao Miao......
Mu Huaijin skillfully reversed the skewers, looked at Mu Ningyuan's line of sight, and said clearly: "Don't always dwell on things that have passed. Looking forward is the right choice. ”
"If you were separated from your mother, would you have such thoughts?" Mu Ningyuan turned his head and asked,
"Don't ask me about things that can't happen. Mu Huaijin replied casually, "Between me and your mother, there is no possibility of such a 'separation'. ”
"What are you going to do if your mother doesn't like you in the first place?"
"When you ate meat, you didn't ask the pig if it wanted to be eaten by you. Mu Huaijin and Mu Ningyuan's personalities are still different after all, "Besides, your mother's temperament, I have a thousand ways to make her fall in love with me." This is Mu Huaijin's self-confidence derived from Xu Ning's simple nature.
Xu Ning and Miao Miao are different.
Mu Ningyuan is not against Miao Miao, it is not impossible to use force. Maybe he could force her to stay by his side, cut off all ties between her and the world, and make him her whole world, but Miao Miao is not the one who will give in.
She may please him on the surface, but deep down she has been thinking about how to escape.
Or perhaps, on the day she realizes she can't escape, she will choose to die.
Mu Ningyuan will never be able to shut down Miao Miao.
"Your temperament is missing some domineering elements. Mu Huaijin slowly brushed the barbecue sauce on the meat skewers, and her movements were as elegant as if she was playing the piano, "Your success in business comes from your talent and the elite education you received since childhood, but your view of love is indeed influenced a lot by me and your mother." ”
Children who grow up in an atmosphere of family happiness and contentment have a very positive outlook. Although Mu Huaijin has been strict with Mu Ningyuan since he was a child, Xu Ning has not poured too much maternal love into Mu Ningyuan since he was a child because Mu Huaijin will be jealous. But there is no doubt that under the influence of his and Xu Ning's good relationship, in Mu Ningyuan's view, marriage should be in love and sweet. There will be quarrels, but they will definitely be reconciled.
He doesn't have the domineering attitude towards women in his bones.
So he couldn't do the kind of thing he forced Miao Miao, he would rather be sad and suffer than let Miao Miao feel a little embarrassed.
The fact that his Mu Huaijin son is actually a gentleman emotionally is also a big surprise to Mu Huaijin.
Mu Ningyuan was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Shouldn't love be an tolerance where both parties take a step back?"
"Love has thousands of postures, do you think that I have been with your mother for so many years, and I am tolerating each other?" Mu Huaijin asked Mu Ningyuan.
Mu Ningyuan nodded.
"Then you're really wrong. Mu Huaijin said, her tone was a little smug, "It's your mother who is tolerating me." You see that I am kind to her and indulgent to her because I don't care, not because I tolerate her. ”
"You just don't know the pain of not being able to ask for it. ”
Mu Ningyuan opened his mouth to refute.
"Don't try to contradict me. Mu Huaijin snorted, "You can accept the fact that Miao Miao left you so calmly because you know that as long as you want, you can know her news at any time." You can tell clearly whether she is doing well or not, what happened recently, even what she ate yesterday, and you can tell a few words, and you don't feel the real feeling that she left you. ”
"One day, Miao Miao will really leave your world completely, and you will know. After Mu Huaijin finished speaking, he put the meat skewers on the plate and instructed Mu Ningyuan, "Bring it to your mother." ”
"Your mother has been very good-looking recently, and she has always wanted her to be her daughter-in-law. ”
"Do you like a daughter-in-law like Jingyu? What kind of character is she, you don't know?" No matter how well-behaved Mo Jingyu pretended to be in front of Xu Ning, it was impossible to hide it from Mu Huaijin.
"Ning Ning just likes it. It's not like you're living with me for the rest of your life. Besides, since you and Miao Miao have no hope, then a family marriage is not indispensable. Mu Huaijin shrugged, "Although our family doesn't need to rely on marriage to add icing on the cake, Mu's capital can easily go to the next level by marriage, why not." ”
"Dad, you're really my own dad. Mu Ningyuan was sarcastic.
"Excessive. Mu Huaijin responded indifferently.
Mu Ning walked towards the pavilion with a plate in his hand.
I heard Xu Ning's laughing voice from a distance: "Don't worry, Jingyu, I think you're a daughter-in-law." If you and Ning Yuan are bullied together in the future, tell me, and I will help you teach him a lesson!"
You see, time has passed, and some things have not changed.
At the beginning, this sentence was said to Miao Miao.
Now that the person has changed, the original tone is still exactly the same, and nothing has changed.
