Chapter 294: Caught in a Storm!
"Xiaoyue, since you have nothing to do, do you want to consider playing with these children with me?" Seeing that the expression of the woman in front of him was a little gloomy, Mu Ran immediately spoke.
"Forehead......" Cheng Xiaoyue was stunned, and just as she was wandering in her heart, a childish voice sounded in her ears: "Sister, you can stay and play with us, okay?" While speaking, the child was still pulling the corner of Cheng Xiaoyue's clothes and shaking it gently.
Looking at the cute children's smiling little faces, Cheng Xiaoyue's heart suddenly softened, she couldn't bear to refuse these innocent children, so she hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Okay, sister, I'll play with you, okay?" ”
So saying, she took the little girl's hand and walked forward together.
"Yes, great, Brother Mu Ran, come quickly!" The children cheered together, and at the same time, they didn't forget to turn around and call Mu Ran to join in.
In this way, for a short afternoon, Cheng Xiaoyue spent it with Mu Ran and these children in laughter. The sun shines on the smiling faces of the children, and it looks very beautiful.
"Xiaoyue, I've really worked hard for you today. You were supposed to have a good rest, and you were allowed to play with us for so long. Walking on the dark path, Mu Ran said apologetically to the woman beside him.
The sunset filled the sky, the sky gradually darkened, and a man and a woman walked side by side on the way home, looking like a young couple who had just fallen in love.
The last ray of warm orange sunlight shone on Cheng Xiaoyue's fair little face, Mu Ran looked at her stupidly, and couldn't help but reach out and gently brush the broken hair on her forehead behind her ears for her.
Feeling the man's movements, Cheng Xiaoyue was slightly stunned. She subconsciously ducked back, and her cheeks suddenly blurred into two clusters.
"Mu Ran, what's so hard about this. Seeing those children so happy, I was very happy. Cheng Xiaoyue said unnaturally, and there was a trace of dodging in her clear eyes.
There was a sudden awkward aura in the air, and Cheng Xiaoyue's eyes looked away and stopped talking.
Seemingly aware of the suddenness of his movements, Mu Ran suddenly felt a little apologetic, and was silent for a moment, seeing that he was about to reach the end of this path, Mu Ran finally said slowly: "Xiaoyue, can you continue to come to school in the next few days?" I'll be here for a few days. ”
"Oh, okay." Cheng Xiaoyue heard this and nodded hurriedly. She thought to herself that she was idle and bored at home during this time anyway, so it was better to help those children with Mu Ran, which also made her have something to do and pass the time.
"See you tomorrow, Xiaoyue, you go in and rest, I'm leaving!" The two slowly walked to the door of Cheng Xiaoyue's house, Mu Ran stopped and said to Cheng Xiaoyue.
"Okay, you can go back quickly, good night!" As she spoke, Cheng Xiaoyue waved her hand at Mu Ran, then turned around and entered the courtyard.
The first day back to his hometown passed like this, Cheng Xiaoyue looked at the moon outside the window and sighed heavily. She hopes that in the next few days, she can relax and rest for a while, and then return to Lin Yichen after she has recuperated.
For several days in a row, Cheng Xiaoyue would go to school on time every day to accompany the children with Mu Ran, and seeing the smiling faces of the children, Cheng Xiaoyue's heart seemed to be comforted a lot. She didn't seem to be so relaxed for a long time, if it weren't for Mu Ran's help, maybe she would still be in a depressed state now.
"Mu Ran, thank you for these few days." In the corner of the empty playground, Cheng Xiaoyue and Mu Ran sat on the spot, talking while looking at the children playing in the middle of the playground.
"Xiaoyue, what's there to thank you for, I didn't do anything." Mu Ran smiled, turned his head and said to Cheng Xiaoyue. I don't know why, in the past few days, he has seen a slight smile on Cheng Xiaoyue's face, and he also feels happy in his heart.
"Mu Ran, if I hadn't been here to play with these lovely children, I might not have been able to get out of my troubles so quickly, seriously, thank you so much." Cheng Xiaoyue said sincerely to the man in front of her. Before returning to her hometown, Cheng Xiaoyue was faintly worried about whether she would still be unable to adjust her state, but she didn't expect to meet Mu Ran on the first day she came back, and after so many days with the children, Cheng Xiaoyue felt that she had gained an unprecedented ease and happiness.
Maybe Mu Ran won't understand her feelings, but this is an incomparably meaningful experience for her Cheng Xiaoyue.
Looking at the serious look of the woman in front of him, a burst of warmth suddenly flowed in Mu Ran's heart. I don't know when it started, he seemed to gradually like this silly woman, when he saw Cheng Xiaoyue appear in front of him with a melancholy look, not to mention how distressed he was, he couldn't wait to use all means to make Cheng Xiaoyue's face overflow with a sweet smile again.
But how could all this be as easy as he imagined? Mu Ran struggled in her heart all the time, because the woman in front of her was no one else, she was her own woman Xiaolin Yichen. He Mu Ran, how could he do such a stupid thing?
The man looked at the woman's fair cheeks, and saw the woman's clear eyes silently staring at the children playing on the playground at this time, and the smile between the woman's eyebrows was deeply engraved in his heart.
"Xiao Yue...... I ......" Mu Ran opened his mouth slightly, ready to say something.
"Mu Ran, what are you going to say?" Hearing the voices of the people around her, Cheng Xiaoyue subconsciously turned her head, she looked at the man in front of her, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"It's nothing, Xiaoyue, I'm going to take these children to the summer camp in a few days, and you can go with me then!" There was a hint of dodging in the man's eyes, and he hurriedly changed the subject, a little flustered in his heart.
He still had no way to do this, although he wanted to confess his heart to Cheng Xiaoyue, but he told himself over and over again that he couldn't, so in the end he suppressed the emotions in his heart.
"Summer camp? Okay, then you can call me then. Cheng Xiaoyue smiled and said softly. Anyway, she doesn't have much to do in this small county, so she can take this opportunity to relax.
As soon as the words fell, a little girl shouted in the direction of the two of them: "Brother Mu Ran, Sister Xiaoyue, come and play together!" As she spoke, the little girl beckoned to her.
"Okay, sister, here come!" With that, Cheng Xiaoyue trotted towards the center of the playground.
Cheng Xiaoyue didn't see the strong affection in the man's eyes, and she didn't find Mu Ran's heart for herself at all.
The man looked at the woman surrounded by children, his eyebrows were bright and heartwarming, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but faintly hook up a smile.
It's so good, Cheng Xiaoyue, it's really good to feel like this now.
Mu Ran didn't plan to explain his mind to Cheng Xiaoyue, he suddenly felt at that moment that it was actually not a good thing for him to stay by Cheng Xiaoyue's side silently like this.
On the other side, in the Lin family's villa, Lin Yichen had just returned from the company, and he was about to lie on the sofa to rest, when the housekeeper came over and said something that made him feel nervous immediately.
"Sir......" The housekeeper walked over silently, he looked at Lin Yichen, and there was some hesitation in his heart.
"What's the matter? Go ahead. Lin Yichen squinted his eyes slightly, he gently put his hand on the armrest next to him, and said with a flat face.
"Sir, I don't know if you watched the news? Recent...... Recently, my wife's hometown has been raining heavily, and the situation is a little bad! Hearing Lin Yichen's words, the housekeeper hurriedly told the things one by one, when he watched the news this morning, as soon as he saw that it was related to Cheng Xiaoyue's hometown, his heart was in his throat, and he didn't know if Lin Yichen knew about it, he was worried all day, so he came to ask the man in front of him.
"What do you say? No way! Hearing this, Lin Yichen immediately woke up, he immediately opened his eyes, and his expression was serious.
"Go and turn on the TV, I'll see!" As he spoke, Lin Yichen hurriedly picked up the remote control in his hand and tuned the TV to the news channel.
And when the scene of heavy rain pouring down caused the entire small county town to fall into an embarrassment introduced Lin Yichen's eyes, Lin Yichen's heart immediately became panicked.
Oh no, Cheng Xiaoyue is alone in her hometown now! What if something happens to her!
Thinking like this, Lin Yichen frowned, he thought for a moment, and made a decision in his heart. He is ready to rush to Cheng Xiaoyue's hometown in person and bring Cheng Xiaoyue back!
Cheng Xiaoyue, don't let anything happen to you!
Lin Yichen secretly said in his heart, and before he could continue to think about it, he saw that he immediately got up and picked up his suit jacket, and was about to walk out the door.
"Sir, what are you doing here?" When the butler saw that the situation was not right, he hurried forward to stop him. The environment in this small county town is so bad, Lin Yichen shouldn't be going there alone!
Even if it's to save his wife, he can't take such a risk!
"I'm going to rescue Cheng Xiaoyue, you hurry up and ask the driver to prepare the car, I'm going to leave now!" Lin Yichen stopped his steps and said to the housekeeper with an indifferent face, revealing a trace of eagerness in his tone.
"Sir, it's very dangerous there, or you can find a few more people to go with you tomorrow!" The housekeeper said with a worried face, it is almost night now, Cheng Xiaoyue's hometown is pouring rain, if Lin Yichen encounters any bad situation, it will be dangerous!
"Don't talk nonsense! Just go as soon as you go! Lin Yichen finally scolded, in the current situation, there is nothing more important than Cheng Xiaoyue's life safety, not to mention that he is a big man, what difficulties and dangers he can't overcome!
