Chapter 366: Reunion after a long absence
Shen Ao saw that Mu Qingqing agreed, so he took her home by the way.
Along the way, Mu Qingqing kept her head down and looked at her phone, and Shen Ao didn't ask much when she saw that she didn't have any desire to talk to herself, but just drove intently along the way and came to Mu's house along the familiar road.
The Mu family is a very classical decoration, there is a faint sandalwood fragrance everywhere, which makes people smell very comfortable, although this is a mansion, but there is no kind of anxiety that is covered by money. Mu Qingqing put down the bag, looking at this familiar home, his heart became much quieter. If it weren't for the bookish smell in this family, I'm afraid I wouldn't have embarked on this road.
"Qingqing, you're here. When Father Mu saw Mu Qingqing coming, he hurriedly put down the book he was reading, took off the reading glasses he was wearing, greeted him, and said with some complaint in his tone, and teased: "I thought you had forgotten my old father if you didn't come for so long!"
Mu Qingqing nodded and smiled, walked to Father Mu's side, took his arm, and said affectionately: "Well, didn't I hurry back as soon as I heard that you missed me?"
Father Mu heard Mu Qingqing say this, and only then did his face show a smile again, and looked at Mu Qingqing and Shen Ao and instructed: "The meal is not ready yet, you can sit here and wait for a while, it will be ready soon." ”
Looking at the two children who were once a little bit old, and now they have grown so big, Father Mu couldn't help but touch his half-hundred-year-old hair, and sighed: "It's really unforgiving, you were just a little bit in my impression at the beginning, but I didn't expect that they have grown up now." ”
Shen Ao and Mu Qingqing looked at each other and smiled, yes, how long has it been, but in Father Mu's heart, it seems that it has only been a while.
The three of them greeted each other, talking about the changes over the years, Mu Qingqing couldn't help but feel a little blamed in her heart as she spoke, because she was too busy with work, so basically she was out all the time, and rarely went home, ignoring Mu's father's emotions, it seems that today's trip is worth it. However, there is a little regret that Huo Haoran was too busy at work, so he couldn't have dinner together.
Thinking about it, her eyebrows wrinkled unconsciously, this small detail was captured by Shen Ao, and he couldn't help but be curious: "Qingqing, what's wrong with you, unhappy?"
Mu Qingqing saw that Shen Ao noticed his emotions, so he said casually: "I was thinking that Haoran couldn't get there now because of overtime, and I felt a little sorry." ”
After Shen Ao heard this reason, he felt that he was a little wrong, so he shut up and didn't speak, but Father Mu solved the embarrassment in time, and said with a smile: "He will come back to pick you up later, and it won't hurt for us to have a good chat at that time!"
Mu Qingqing nodded, Shen Ao was still a little uncomfortable when he heard Huo Haoran's name, after all, he had been silently liking Mu Qingqing for so many years, and just as he was pondering, a call came.
"The meal is ready, let's eat it while it's hot, I've been waiting for a long time!"
Seeing that the meal was ready, Father Mu hurriedly got up and beckoned Shen Ao and Mu Qingqing to eat.
"Let's go, I've been waiting for so long, let's go eat!"
The three of them sat at the dining table, Mu Qingqing was next to Father Mu, and then next to Mu Qingqing was Shen Ao.
Because he knew that Mu Qingqing was coming, the meals he prepared were basically very good for her, Shen Ao grew up with her since she was a child, so she naturally knew what she liked to eat, so she put her favorite dishes on her plate, and said softly: "I remember that you used to like to eat this dish, and at that time you always competed with me to eat." ”
Mu Qingqing watched Shen Ao pick up vegetables for himself, and his eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of shock, he didn't expect that after so long, he still remembered his taste, but because of Huo Haoran, she didn't mean that to Shen Ao at all, so she subconsciously frowned, and said in a muffled voice: "It's different now than when I was a child, I don't like it anymore." ”
"Ahh A trace of panic obviously flashed in Shen Ao's dark eyes, he was a little at a loss, he didn't know what to do, he thought she would be happy to give her her her favorite dishes, but he didn't expect to be poured cold water.
Mu Qingqing saw his shocked look, casually made up a lie, and said: "Well, people change, things have long been different after so long, not to mention the dishes that I liked to eat so long ago." She actually still likes to eat this dish, but she just doesn't want Shen Ao to try against her again.
"Well, I didn't think about it that much. Shen Ao's ink pupils darkened significantly, and then he just lowered his head and ate silently.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was so embarrassing, Father Mu hurriedly coughed twice to ease the atmosphere, "Qingqing, this child has been picky since he was a child, so don't worry too much." ”
Shen Ao knew what Father Mu meant, and smiled apologetically on his face, although he liked Mu Qingqing, but now that she and Huo Haoran were already together, even if she rejected her kindness now, he had nothing to say.
This long-lost reunion dinner ended with some embarrassment, and Shen Ao subconsciously asked, "Qingqing, do you want me to send you back?"
Mu Qingqing shook his head, leaned closer to Father Mu, put his arm around him, and with a polite and graceful smile on his delicate face, he refused: "No, I'm waiting for Haoran to come over, he should be busy with the company's affairs." ”
"Then I'll go now. After Shen Ao finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, Mu Qingqing followed behind, sent him to the door, and said politely: "Pay attention to safety on that road." ”
After seeing Shen Ao leave, Father Mu smiled a little helplessly, looking at Mu Qingqing's appearance towards Shen Ao just now, he couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Shen Ao in his heart, and sighed: "Shen Ao, how can he also grow up with your childhood sweetheart, don't be too disgraceful to save face for him." I saw that his expression was not too right, and he looked a little unhappy. ”
Mu Qingqing knew that Father Mu was talking about himself, so he explained: "But I have Haoran now, and I don't want him to have any other thoughts about me, which is also a delay for him." ”
Hearing Mu Qingqing's explanation, Father Mu couldn't help but knock on Mu Qingqing's head, and his slightly cloudy eyes were full of love, "You little girl, you haven't changed at all since you were a child!"
Mu Qingqing blinked her black stone-like eyes with a lazy expression, "Okay, you still know me best!" She glanced at the time, counting that Huo Haoran was also coming, and her mood slowly began to get excited, "I wonder if Haoran is already on the way here?"
