Chapter 20: A Narrow Encounter

Liu Qianlu brought a lot of things over, in addition to exquisite cakes and various snacks, Liu Qianlu even went to the supermarket to buy a lot of vegetables and seafood, in order to show off his skills in the Xia family and make Xia Mohan have a good impression of himself.

There is also the idea of establishing his position in the Xia family in this way. You know, if a man is willing to let a woman cook in his home, he is implying that he affirms their relationship.

As the president of the Xia family, Xia Mohan, even if Liu Qianlu became pregnant or even miscarried for him, it was not enough for him to speak first to make their relationship go further, so Liu Qianlu had to add firewood himself.

Unexpectedly, after carrying such heavy ingredients into the Xia Mansion, the housekeeper Uncle Xia said: He has already prepared all the matters for dinner, and he can't afford to do it without her Liu Qianlu, so as not to be injured in the kitchen and delay her work.

Although Liu Qianlu was extremely reluctant, she had to endure it.

After handing over all the ingredients to Uncle Xia, Liu Qianlu, who had nothing to do, wanted to go around, but was told by Uncle Xia that Mr. Xia had explained and asked Miss Liu to wait in the living room.

In this way, Liu Qianlu sat in the Xia Mansion for several hours. The tea continued cup after cup, and the qi in Liu Qianlu's stomach became bigger and bigger.

Liu Qianlu originally thought that with the news of Xia Mohan and Mu Wanchun's divorce, and the scandal between herself and Xia Mohan, she would definitely be treated differently from others when she came to Xia Mansion for the first time. Behold......

Liu Qianlu wanted to talk to a domestic servant, and by the way, revealed his relationship with Xia Mohan. Necheng thought that except for Uncle Xia, an old fox, who just blindly poured tea and water for himself, no one came to the living room.

As for Uncle Xia, he didn't know anything about it, didn't take the initiative to ask questions, and refused to answer anything, and he was very good at Tai Chi.

Finally waited for Xia Mohan to come back, who knew that after he and Liu Qianlu met, he hid in the study with Xia, not knowing what to say.

When it was dark, Xia Mohan came out of the study and accompanied Liu Qianlu to eat together.

But sitting on both sides of the long and wide dining table, Liu Qianlu felt that there were thousands of mountains and rivers between him and Xia Mohan. But even so, it's already good. It won't be long before she can rejoin his arms and enjoy his favor to herself.

Liu Qianlu ate her meal quietly, her mouth couldn't distinguish the taste, all her thoughts were on Xia Mohan. She looked at him silently with a smile on her face as she ate.

I just hope that time will last forever and stop there.

"Why—the food isn't appetizing?" Feeling the fiery gaze on the other side, Xia Mohan raised his head and asked, with a hint of tenderness and doting in his eyes.

Liu Qianlu shook her head: "No, the food is very good, I like it very much." It's just a delicious meal, so you have to enjoy it slowly. ”

Xia Mohan quickly finished eating, left the table, turned on his phone to the side, and flipped through the documents.

When Liu Qianlu saw it, she put down the dishes and chopsticks and sat beside Xia Mohan.

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Qianlu said: "Recently, because of some rumors, I will always encounter paparazzi in the hotel and even on the road, and I am very troubled...... Do you have any extra room here?"

Xia Mohan turned his head, pondered for a moment, and said, "It's too remote here, and it's not very convenient in all aspects. I'll give you an apartment in the summer. ”

Although Liu Qianlu was unhappy in his heart, he immediately thanked Xia Mohan with a sweet smile, even if he couldn't move into the Xia Mansion immediately, Xia Mohan said this, which can be regarded as a tacit acquiescence in the relationship between the two.

At this time, Xia He, who was wearing a black suit and a ponytail, came in, she didn't look at Liu Qianlu, and said to Xia Mohan respectfully: "Boss, Madam is here." ”

Xia Mohan raised his eyebrows: "Madame? Where is Madame—don't you know that I have divorced her?"

Xia He bowed his head and was silent.

Xia Mohan retracted his gaze and continued to look at his phone: "I'm not done here yet, let her wait." ”

Hearing Xia Mohan say this, although Liu Qianlu's heart blossomed, her expression did not fluctuate at all. Mu Wanchun, you are so pitiful, the taste of falling from a high place is not pleasant, right? You wait, I have to step on it again.

Xia He answered "yes" and was about to leave, but was stopped by Xia Mohan again.

"It's not early, you send Miss Liu back. Remember: it must be delivered. ”

Liu Qianlu stood up and said to Xia Mohan with a smile: "Mohan, I haven't seen Sister Mu for a while, can I see her?"

Xia Mohan stood up and asked suspiciously, "See her—is it necessary?"

Liu Qianlu walked over and gently tugged at Xia Mohan's sleeve, coquettishly as if they were close lovers.

Xia Mohan patted Liu Qianlu's shoulder and smiled slightly: "Go ahead." ”

Seeing that these two people didn't care about the closeness of others, Xia He felt a sense of depression and disgust in his heart for the first time, towards Xia Mohan.

Xia He called Mu Wanchun out, lowered his voice and said, "Madam, it's the one who came and wanted to meet you." ”

Mu Wanchun was stunned for a moment, and then understood.

Led by Xia He, Mu Wanchun came to a pavilion in the Xia family's garden and saw the gentle and beautiful Liu Qianlu. She was still as sweet and quiet as before, with a smile on her lips.

"Sister Mu, I haven't seen you for a long time, you, are you okay?" Liu Qianlu said.

Mu Wanchun sneered and sat down: "Am I okay, don't you know?" Even if you don't know, you can always see the messages on your phone, right?"

Liu Qianlu waved at Xia He and motioned for her to go away.

Xia He glanced at Mu Wanchun and left.

"Sister Mu, if it weren't for you, how could Mo Han's child and I lose it? You haven't been a mother, how can you understand the pain of losing your child?" After Liu Qianlu sat down next to Mu Wanchun, he stared at her fiercely.

Mu Wanchun laughed: "There are still people like you in the world, reversing black and white, referring to deer as horses." I went to see you in the hospital that day, and I heard the doctor say with my own ears that the child you were carrying had a problem with the test and was destined to be lost. But in order for Xia Mohan to force me to divorce, you even have to use your own children. Speaking of which, your child who is destined not to be born hurts more than you, right?"

Liu Qianlu's expression immediately changed, from the previous gentleness to coldness: "So what? As a child of the Xia family, he can only shine in the limelight, and his natural weakness is destined to be eliminated." This is the sacrifice I made for him and for their Xia family, do you understand? That's my child, that's our child, do you think I'm not heartbroken? Mu Wanchun, this is the expression of my love for him, for him, I am willing to give everything I have, can you do it?"

Mu Wanchun looked at the brightly lit Xia Mansion, shook her head and said, "How long have you known him, and you dare to say that you love him?" I have known him for more than 20 years, liked him for 20 years, and loved him for more than 10 years......

"So what—for all these years, you never got his heart. Mu Wanchun, you should be glad that it was I who rescued you and freed you from the predicament of lovelessness. You see, after leaving the Xia family, didn't your suitor jump out immediately? It is much easier to love someone than to love others. Liu Qianlu said.

"I don't bother you about my business. We don't have to meet, let alone say much. Mu Wanchun said that she was about to leave.

Liu Qianlu grabbed Mu Wanchun's wrist: "Why are you in such a hurry?" Sister Mu, I kindly remind you: you have nothing to do with him anymore, for the sake of your poor self-esteem, it is better to stay away from him." As for the Mu family and the Mu family, it has reached the point of twilight in the West Mountain, even if he wants to help you in the past, he must take into account the opinions of the entire Xia family. Besides, where does the affection come from between you?"

"Since there isn't, then what are you afraid of? Sure enough, stolen things always can't help but feel empty. Mu Wanchun smiled.

"Sister Mu, you have nothing, and you are so arrogant, you are really a natural princess. After Liu Qianlu finished speaking, she slapped her face, and then pulled Mu Wanchun and fell down together.

When everyone arrived, they only saw Mu Wanchun pressing on Liu Qianlu's body, Liu Qianlu was crying and still asking for mercy.

Everyone entered the living room, and everyone saw that Liu Qianlu's right face was printed with a clear slap print, which was very eye-catching.

Xia Mohan approached Liu Qianlu, gently stroked her right cheek, blew a breath, and then gently applied the ointment to her face.

Seeing Xia Mohan treat Liu Qianlu so gently, Mu Wanchun's heart fell downward, like a stone sinking into the sea.

"I didn't hit her, she ...... it herself" Before the words were finished, Mu Wanchun smiled and shut up.

Liu Qianlu took Xia Mohan's hand, and as soon as her eyes blinked, tears flowed out: "Mohan, I know I'm sorry for Sister Mu." However, I apologized when I should have apologized, and I said what I should have said, but Sister Mu still refused to forgive me. If you want to blame, you can only blame me for loving you too much, Sister Mu can leave you without hesitation, I can't do it. I can't live without you......"

Mu Wanchun listened to Liu Qianlu's words, smiled inexplicably, and bent over with a smile. After half a ring, she smiled and said, "In my life, Mu Wanchun has only done one thing I regret, that is, to make friends with you and lure wolves into the room." Blame me for not knowing people clearly, and being stabbed in the back. Such a man who sees things differently, if you want it, just collect it. Wang Ba looks at the mung beans, you are good at the eyes. ”

Xia Mohan's face sank: "Stop! Mu Wanchun, in my territory, you are reckless, I don't want to pursue it." But you seem to have forgotten that tonight, as the spokesperson of Mu Rufeng of the Mu family, you haven't given me a word yet: Regarding the funds borrowed by your Mu family from the Xia family, when will they be returned?"

Mu Wanchun's head was blank, and her body shook twice: she didn't know about this.

Xia Mohan appeased Liu Qianlu for a while, asked Xia He to send Liu Qianlu back, and told Xia Qianlu some things, then turned back to look at Mu Wanchun.

Without waiting for Xia Mohan to speak, Mu Wanchun asked, "Xia's family, how much money did you borrow from Mu's family, when did this happen, and who was in charge?"

Xia Mohan said with a calm face: "Come with me to the study." ”

Entering the study, Xia Mohan took out a document from the safe and handed it to Mu Wanchun.

Mu Wanchun turned a few pages and understood. This is the contract that Mu Rufeng personally signed with Xia Mohan 3 months ago. In the contract, Mu Rufeng and Xia Mohan agreed: Xia borrowed 300 million from Mu and returned with interest after one year; if the principal and interest could not be returned when it expired, Mu Rufeng would transfer part of the shares under his name to Xia Mohan.

"But now......" Mu Wanchun took the contract, like Mount Tai pressing on the top.

"But according to the current situation, Mu is unable to repay. Therefore, I didn't think about taking out this contract to make things worse for Mu's. Treat this as if I owe it to you. However, I am a businessman after all, and I will never do business at a loss......"
