040 When the storm is coming
It seems that the matter has come to an end.
The people behind the scenes seem to have disappeared without a trace, as if they had never been there.
Although the difficulties have been solved, Mu Chuan always feels that there are still things that will happen.
Recently, the number of times she can see Xu Jiangjin has gradually decreased.
Mu Chuan held his chin in a daze, holding the pencil but couldn't put down the pen for a long time, and until now, the manuscript paper is still blank.
Thinking about it, he still picked up his mobile phone and sent a message to Xu Jiangjin.
"What are you doing?"
The message quickly replied, "Go to work, what's wrong, miss me?" followed by an expression of touching his head.
Mu Chuan hugged his mobile phone and laughed, and sent an expression begging for a hug, "Eat together at noon?"
"Okay, I'll pick you up after work. β
"Hmm. β
Turning off the phone, Mu Chuan felt relieved.
Then I picked up the pen again and began to scribble on the white manuscript paper.
Xu Jiangjin put away his mobile phone, sat in the wedding dress shop, put away the smile on the corner of his mouth, and watched Han Xiangyun change one set of wedding dresses after another.
"Jiang Jin, do you look good in this set?" Han Xiangyun held the corner of the wedding dress, and stood in place a little nervously, with a girl's unique shyness on her face.
"Miss Han likes it. Xu Jiangjin glanced at it casually, and then turned his gaze back to his phone.
Han Xiangyun seemed to have gotten used to his indifference, so instead of getting angry, she walked over to him with her skirt, "It's our engagement in two days, since you're here, can't you help me pick out a dress!"
Xu Jiangjin's body moved to the side, avoiding her touch, "Miss Han, it's just an engagement banquet, why bother so much?"
Han Xiangyun's hand froze in mid-air, her face changed, and finally she had to withdraw it stupidly, "Jiang Jin, I came here early in the morning to try on the dress, but you didn't even look at me, don't you know how much this hurts a girl's self-esteem?"
Xu Jiangjin couldn't help but sneer, "Self-esteem? I thought Miss Han didn't know what self-esteem was?"
Han Xiangyun's face suddenly couldn't be hung up, "Xu Jiangjin, don't go too far! Don't forget, you've already succumbed, haven't you?"
Xu Jiangjin's face gradually changed, but Han Xiangyun still felt puzzled, "By now, you have already come, and you must also attend the engagement banquet in a few days, so you are no longer qualified to say no, whether you want to or not, from now on, you can only be my Han Xiangyun's husband!"
Before the words fell, Xu Jiangjin had already stood up from the sofa, his dark blue coat, his whole person was handsome, and his heroic posture was upright, "Miss Han, are you so confident?"
"What I, Han Xiangyun, have wanted since I was a child, there has never been anything I can't get, and you, too!"
Xu Jiangjin turned his head slightly, his pupils were dark, the corners of his lips were outlined in a shallow arc, and the words he said were meaningful, "I hope so." Then he pulled open the glass door of the bridal flagship store and strode away.
Han Xiangyun watched him leave, and slammed off the sofa angrily, but he was still angry, "Xu Jiangjian, sooner or later I will let you break all your thoughts!"
After getting off work, Mu Chuan was downstairs in the company, wrapping himself tightly with his coat, and his cheeks were red from cold.
After waiting for a long time, a silver-gray Maybach slowly drove into sight.
Mu Chuan beckoned to him, and after Xu Jiangjin got out of the car, he walked over quickly and took her into his arms, "It's such a cold day, why don't you wait in the company, I'll call you when I arrive." β
Xu Jiangjin rubbed her flushed cheeks, and her tone was both distressed and slightly reproachful.
Mu Chuan shook his head, "I want to see you come over." β
"Why?"
"Because it makes people feel at ease. Mu Chuan tugged at his sleeve coquettishly, "I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much." β
Xu Jiangjin's heart hurt slightly, "I'm sorry, Chu'an, I ......"
Mu Chuan covered his mouth, "You don't have to say it, I know everything." After all, you are the president of a group, you must always lead by example, you can't be separated, I understand, you don't need to explain. β
Xu Jiangjin held her cold hand and slowly put it on his heart, Mu Chu'an could clearly feel the powerful heartbeat in his chest, "Chu'an, no matter what I do, you will understand me, right?"
Mu Chuan looked at him, although he didn't understand why he suddenly said this, but he still nodded heavily, "No matter what you do, I believe in you, because, I like you." β
Xu Jiangjian's eyelashes trembled, and then she lifted her face, and her lips gently reflected.
Mu Chu'an closed his eyes, and at that moment, the snowflakes flew, and the cold snowflakes fell on her face one by one, and on his hair, they hugged each other tightly in the snowy afternoon.
β¦β¦
In the quiet and elegant cafΓ©, Shen Zewei closed his eyes and quietly listened to the classical melodious music, penetrating the eardrum and bringing auditory enjoyment.
"Mr. Shen is really interested, this beloved woman is about to be handed over, and he still has the heart to listen to music and enjoy life here?" Han Xiangyun sat down opposite him, his legs folded.
Shen Ze raised his hand slightly, the music stopped, and then opened his eyes, "Are you?"
"My name is Han Xiangyun, and Han Yunhai is my father. β
Shen Ze was surprised, "It turned out to be Miss Han, I don't know if Miss Han suddenly visited, what did you do?"
"I'm just here to give Mr. Shen advice. Han Xiangyun took out an invitation card and handed it over, "I will hold an engagement ceremony with Xu, Jiang, and Jin, the presidents of the Xu Group, and I hope that Mr. Shen will definitely appreciate his face when the time comes, but I will come here to send you an invitation." β
Shen Ze frowned, feeling that it was not very real, but when he really saw Xu Jiangjian's name appear on the invitation, he was mixed with anger in disbelief, "As far as I know, Mr. Xu already has a fiancΓ©e, but I really want to know, Miss Han, how did she become Mr. Xu's fiancΓ©e?"
A fierce color flashed in Han Xiangyun's eyes, "Xu Jiangjin's fiancΓ©e has always been the only one with me!" But in the blink of an eye, he laughed again, "I think Mr. Shen may not know yet, Xu Jiangjin and I are engaged, but I haven't told Mu Chu'an yet, guess how sad she should be if she knows." β
Shen Ze's fist on his knee tightened, but his face remained silent, "I never knew that Miss Han had this habit and liked to dig into other people's corners?"
Han Xiangyun was not angry, "Mr. Shen, if I were you, I would definitely let my beloved see the true face of the person she was thinking about, so that she would break all her thoughts, instead of letting her stay in the dark and be deceived!"
Shen Ze raised his eyebrows slightly, "This may be the real purpose of Miss Han's trip, borrow my hand to make Chu An die to Xu Jiangjian, then when the time comes, Xu Jiangjin can only be yours alone? β
Han Xiangyun nodded, and did not deny it, "Since Mr. Shen knows everything, then I don't need to bother to speak." β
Shen Ze didn't answer her words, but accepted the invitation, "Miss Han's engagement banquet, I will definitely appreciate my face." β
Han Xiangyun was very satisfied, "Then I won't disturb Mr. Shen's Yaxing, I'll go first." β
Shen Ze bowed slightly, "Then I won't send it, Miss Han walks slowly." β
After Han Xiangyun left, Xiao Su walked over, "Mr. Shen, do you need me to dispose of the invitation." β
"No need. β
"Then Mr. Shen, are you planning to wade into this troubled water?"
Shen Ze's gentle and jade-like face began to become cold and hard, "Originally, I thought that if I could be with the person I liked, Chu An would be happy, but now I have found out that Xu Jiangjin is not worthy of her to be so sincere, since he can't treat her well, then don't blame me." β
β¦β¦
In the evening, most of the people in the company got off work one after another, but Mu Chuan's office was still lit.
"Director, aren't you leaving?" Yiyi poked her head in, and Mu Chuan waved her hand, "You go back first, I haven't finished the manuscript yet, and I'll leave later." β
"Then I'll go first, and be careful on the way back when you go back. β
"Okay, I got it. β
After Yiyi left, Mu Chuan painted for a long time before finishing the draft, she raised her hand and rubbed her sore neck, looked at the clock on the wall, and realized that it was already nine o'clock.
Mu Chuan stood up and moved his muscles for a while before walking to the door, taking off the coat and bag on the shelf, and then turning off the lights in the office before leaving the company.
The snow was still falling outside, Mu Chu'an retracted her chin into her scarf, and when she was about to walk forward in the snow, a black umbrella was already on top of her head.
Mu Chuan looked up with some confusion, and saw Shen Ze smiling at her, "Shen Ze, why are you, I feel like I haven't seen you for a long time!"
Shen Ze shook off the snowflakes that fell on her body, "I went on a business trip, I came to you just after I came back." β
The two walked into the wind and snow together, Mu Chu'an put his hands in his pockets, Shen Ze held the umbrella, and his bare hand had already begun to redden, "Aren't your hands cold?" β
Shen Ze didn't agree, "On such a cold day, how can a man of mine let you let a girl hold an umbrella for me?"
Mu Chu'an didn't think it was anything, so he directly reached out and held the handle of the umbrella, "You quickly put it in your pocket to warm up, it's not too late to hold on when you're warm, how can a girl be so delicate as you think." β
In a passive situation, Shen Ze put his hand into his pocket, his hands warmed up in an instant, and Mu Chuan held the umbrella high, his eyebrows and eyes curled.
Shen Ze looked at her stunned, and for a moment, his eyes were full of softness, "There has never been a girl who is willing to hold up an umbrella for me in the snowy winter, Chu An, you are the first." β
Mu Chuan looked back at him, "Then you are really lucky to be able to have such a good friend as me." β
"yes. β
Meeting you is the most beautiful luck in my life.
