Chapter 117: The Graveyard
"To tell you the truth, I just want to introduce myself when I invite my uncle and aunt over this time. I am Mu Jianguo's grandson, and my grandfather has an agreement with Grandpa Ziqian, so I also want to fulfill this agreement this time. β
Mu Erhan went straight to the point, and his speech was still gentle, but in Lin Jiang's eyes, he was a little more bookish, which made people feel a lot more comfortable, and there was no sense of oppression like Gu Sicheng.
"I've heard about this matter a few years ago, my dad said it a few years ago, but he hasn't mentioned it in the following years, so I haven't been very relieved, so it's also my negligence." Lin Jiang is also a person who is used to seeing big scenes, but he is just a kid, "You still remember your family's hard work." β
"yes, yes." Jiang Lan helped, "Ziqian can work here is also fate, you meet and come back, it means that it is a good fate from God, why don't we meet your parents next time, this matter is ......."
Before Jiang Lan finished speaking, she was severely reprimanded by Lin Jiang.
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Mu Erhan gently resolved their contradictions, and said with a smile: "Yes, my aunt is right, but I didn't think about it enough. It's just that my father and mother are still abroad, and I've already told them, but I really can't get out lately. β
Afraid that the Lin family would think that they were neglecting, he added: "My mother said that when she returns to China, I will invite you to have tea as soon as possible." β
"That's good, that's good." Jiang Lan hurriedly spoke.
Lin Zixin didn't speak much during the whole process, probably still afraid that Lin Jiang would blame him, so he didn't say anything.
Lin Jiang didn't look at her until he left.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Lin Muqiao slept directly until the middle of the night, and was woken up hungry in the middle of the night.
She planned to go down and casually see if there was any fast food in the refrigerator, and just eat it.
It's just that when she turned on her phone, she didn't have the desire to eat.
Xie Xiaoyun really didn't give up, and actually sent her a message and asked her to meet tomorrow.
She really didn't want to go, but Xie Xiaoyun sent her a photo, which was a photo of Gu Sicheng and another girl whose face was blocked.
Gu Sicheng in the photo and the current Gu Sicheng are like two people, and he is smiling very sunny in the photo. Lin Muqiao really couldn't believe that Gu Sicheng still had such a side.
But, who is this woman?
Judging from the body type, it is not Du Du, nor is it Gong Chengyu. She couldn't imagine what kind of woman there was in his world besides these two girls.
Lin Muqiao finally followed the positioning she gave and went to a bubble tea shop.
She was originally reluctant to go to Xie Xiaoyun, because she didn't know what kind of tricks this person was holding. Gu Sicheng also said that she didn't want to contact these people casually.
However, she couldn't resist the curiosity in her heart.
"I guess there's nothing wrong here." She lifted the curtain of the milk tea shop and walked in, but she didn't see Xie Xiaoyun for a week, "You can't lie to me." β
The phone rang then, and Xie Xiaoyun asked her to come to the second floor.
The so-called second floor is just a small floor separated from the bubble tea shop, with a few tables and only a few people can sit, and the stairs are narrow and small, and she can't go up no matter how fat she is.
As soon as she arrived, she saw Xie Xiaoyun sitting and waiting for her.
"If there's a fart, let it go!" She reluctantly walked to the table next to Xie Xiaoyun and sat down, still facing each other, but she didn't want to sit at the same table with her.
"Hehe, it's quite bold now, dare to come to me alone." She smiled darkly, very treacherous, "Aren't you usually careful of me when you go in and out?" Why is it because Mr. Gu made you forget your guard today? β
She was right, since she found out that she was always peeping at them secretly and laughing in private, Lin Muqiao and the others had to keep an eye on everything.
"Huh!" Lin Muqiao turned the mobile phone in her hand and played with it, without any panicked look on her face, "Why should I be afraid of you?" I don't do anything bad in my life, and I'm not afraid of being found by ghosts, and do you think I need to be afraid of you? Gu Sicheng's eyes are not blind. β
What she meant was warning Xie Xiaoyun not to mess around, everything was under Gu Sicheng's protection.
Xie Xiaoyun's eyes gradually became gray and gloomy, she hated Lin Muqiao most for showing off Gu Sicheng's kindness to her in front of her.
"I won't hurt you, but don't be too complacent." She must have been prepared to find Lin Muqiao this time, even if she won't let them divorce this time, it will definitely make them suspicious, "Don't you want to know who that woman is?" β
She suddenly smiled again.
"I'm so stupid, if you didn't care, I wouldn't be here today, would I?"
She laughed harshly, but Lin Muqiao could only endure her, and this time she had something to ask her.
"......" Lin Muqiao didn't speak, but glared at her directly, and looked downstairs indifferently.
"You probably don't know, Mr. Gu has a very precious first girlfriend." Although she is very angry with Lin Muqiao, she is always respectful to Gu Sicheng, which can be seen from every time she mentions Gu Sicheng.
Lin Muqiao raised her eyebrows, and the corners of her mouth twitched. "What if you have a first girlfriend? You can't let the excellent Mr. Gu be a peony flower like you, right? β
With a word, she struck Xie Xiaoyun's heart directly.
Xie Xiaoyun is not good at stubble, "Is it?" So is it a coincidence? That first love actually looked like this. She motioned for Lin Muqiao to look at her own phone.
As soon as Lin Muqiao turned on her phone, she was shocked.
There are actually two people in the world who look like this, and this first love and her look like twins! It's the difference in temperament.
Although she was surprised, she didn't lose her temper too much in front of Xie Xiaoyun, and quickly recovered her complexion, and directly put the phone back on the table gently.
Xie Xiaoyun saw her pupils dilated, and her obviously surprised look, her already small eyes narrowed, and then the corners of her mouth were hooked and she smiled treacherously.
"What? Surprised, right? She stepped on her again, "It seems that you are just a stand-in, don't take yourself too seriously." β
"......" Lin Muqiao didn't speak, not to mention that she was not wrong at all, it seems that this is the reason why he found him.
"If it weren't for your face, what difference would you have from me? In his eyes, it was nothing more than insignificant. β
Lin Muqiao smiled, "Don't compare me with you, I feel disgusting." β
She couldn't afford to be complacent because her face had collided with someone, and she couldn't afford to continue pestering her, and since the purpose of coming here today had been achieved, there was no need for her to stay here.
"It's not your turn to be an outsider to interfere in the affairs between us." The word "outsider", she said very seriously, like a warning.
Looking at the back of her leaving, Xie Xiaoyun clenched his fist fiercely and smashed it on the table.
"Dead slut, now so proud, look at your face is gone, are you still so important in his heart!"
β¦β¦
After Lin Muqiao came out of the bubble tea shop, she was in a depressed mood.
Although she knew that the two of them were just a contractual relationship, a transaction, but her heart was dull and painful. After all, who wants to be someone else's stand-in.
The flower shop on the side of the road put some lilies out, and she remembered that her mother's favorite was lilies when she was alive, and remembered that she seemed to have not been to see her mother for a long time, and her birthday was approaching. So he went in and bought a strap and went to see her.
She walked in the middle of the cemetery, and the rows of black-and-white photos on the tombstones smiled at her.
This is really a treasure with good scenery, if it weren't for Gu Sicheng, she and her brother wouldn't have been able to let their mother live here.
Thinking about it, I arrived at my mother's grave.
She placed the bouquet in her hand in front of her tombstone, and her mother's picture was engraved on the tombstone still smiling softly.
"Mom, it would be nice if you were still here." Her eyes turned red as she spoke. "I really regret not listening to you at that time, and I still have to talk back to you."
She really wanted to talk to her about her recent events now, but after thinking about it, there was nothing to say, after all, it was her stubborn choice in the first place.
"Don't worry, my brother has also stabilized, and we will get better and better."
She didn't stop long before heading back.
Foreign.
Although Gu Sicheng has been busy with cooperation here, he has always been a little uneasy in his heart, so he directly called Lu Shen over.
"Where did my wife go today?"
Lu Shen lowered his head and replied: "Today, my wife went out to a bubble tea shop, and then ......"
Gu Sicheng raised his head, "And then what." β
"Then I went to the cemetery."
Gu Sicheng nodded, and asked again: "Who did you contact in the middle?" β
Lu Shen really didn't dare to look up, because that person was wearing a hat and a mask all the time when he came out.
"I don't know."
Gu Sicheng frowned almost invisibly.
Lu Shen knew that it was his subordinates who were not doing well, so he didn't dare to talk, just stood with his head down until Gu Sicheng asked him to go out.
Gu Sicheng's slender fingers pinched his brows, and the uneasiness in his heart increased a little.
I always feel that grandma's signature is a bit mysterious this time, although he has never believed it before, but this time his heart has always remembered this matter.
He didn't want anything to happen, and he had to find a new woman to give him a baby. Moreover, although Lin Muqiao sometimes gives him a headache, he never wants her to have an accident because of herself.
came out of the cemetery and happened to run into Mu Erhan, who had just come back from signing a contract.
"I'll give you a ride." Mu Erhan parked the car next to her and smiled at her like a spring breeze.
It looks like there should be something happy.
Lin Muqiao didn't say anything polite to him, just opened the car door and sat in.
"I'm sorry for you." She went straight back to the apartment, so he asked him to send herself back to the apartment.
"You live here too?" He asked in surprise.
"yes, I live on the 48th floor here." In fact, she wanted to say that the 48th, 49th, and 50th floors were hers, but she felt that this was a bit of a show off of wealth, so she kept her mouth shut.
"It's a coincidence that some of my company's artists also live here." I don't know why, he is unwilling to be Ziqian before Lin Muqiao's year, that is, his fiancΓ©e.
