When Xu Youning woke up, the rain was still falling.

The difference is that she is no longer in the car, but on the bed in the room.

This room......

At first glance, Xu Youning suspected that she had seen it wrong, or that her eyes were hallucinating.

She blinked her eyes and fixed her eyes - it was really the Mu family's old mansion!

This is where he grew up and where he and Mu Sijue began.

Xu Youning thought they would never come back. Unexpectedly, when she woke up, she was in this place.

She should still believe in Mu Sijue—there is nothing he can't do as long as he wants to.

Xu Youning sat up and looked around the room.

Although all the furniture was spotless and the wooden floors were as clean as new, there were no extra household items in the room except for a quilt, which was clearly taken out of the room.

Every detail reveals that this room has not been occupied for a long time.

When he used to live here, there weren't many things in his room, but there would be at least one or two of his clothes hanging on the hangers, a half-read book by the bedside, and a small table or somewhere where there would be a cup from which he drank water.

On top of that, the whole room will be filled with his scent.

Now, this room doesn't even have the most basic breath of life.

In the depths of Xu Youning's heart, an indescribable abruptness suddenly appeared......

Mu Sijue saw that the time was almost up, and came to the master bedroom from the study, and the movement of pushing in was very light, but he found that Xu Youning had woken up.

Xu Youning looked at Mu Sijue, and suddenly thought of a question-

"How did I get here?"

Mu Sijue raised his eyebrows: "Of course I carried you up." ”

“……”

Xu Youning thought about it, too-she couldn't have sleepwalked by herself.

She got out of bed and asked Mu Sijue, "When are we going back to City A?" ”

"I was going to go back around five o'clock and get home before ten o'clock in the evening." "But now, we may have to change our plans. ”

Xu Youning was confused: "Why?" ”

"Heavy rainfall throughout the city of G." "Both air and land transport have been affected. ”

"Ah......h

Xu Youning lowered his eyes and tried his best to hide the disappointment in his eyes.

She still wanted to go back to see Niannian, but she didn't expect to be stopped by a burst of heavy rain.

Mu Sijue thought that Xu Youning was worried, and comforted her and said, "Don't worry, it's safe here." ”

Xu Youning smiled: "If you don't mention it, I can't remember the word 'worry' at all." ”

As long as she's with Mu Sijue, she doesn't seem to worry about anything at all.

Because she knew that no matter what happened, Mu Sijue would always have a solution. If necessary, she can also help Mu Sijue.

This is the sense of security that Mu Sijue gives her.

"I'm missing." Xu Youning said, the volume gradually decreased, and finally only she and Mu Sijue could hear it, "...... You're here, what do I have to worry about? ”

This answer was just right to please Mu Sijue.

Mu Sijue reassured Xu Youning and said, "We can't go back, Niannian will go to Jian An's house." ”

Just hearing Su Jian'an's name, Xu Youning felt very relieved.

In Xu Youning's heart, Su Jian'an is already a person who lives up to his name - can make people trust unconditionally and feel at ease.

"Hungry?" "Go down and get something to eat?" ”

It's okay that Mu Sijue didn't ask, but when he asked, Xu Youning really felt hungry.

After all, lunch was early—she could only comfort herself.

Mu Sijue knew the answer as soon as he saw Xu Youning's expression, and took her hand downstairs.

"Hey......" The more Xu Youning thought about it, the more he wondered, and let out a question from the depths of his soul, "How do you know me so well?" ”

"Isn't that a good thing?" Mu Sijue raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Youning with an uncertain expression, "Or do you not want me to understand you?" ”

"Of course not!" Xu Youning immediately denied it, and then emphasized, "It's actually a good thing that the other half understands himself......"

Mu Sijue was not so easily persuaded: "Then what you just said ......?" ”

"......" Xu Youning's eyes rolled, and he quickly found a reasonable excuse for himself, "I just want to maintain a little bit of mystery in front of you!" After all...... It's attractive because of the mystery! ”

At this time, the two happened to walk downstairs.

It was raining outside, and the entire first floor was filled with a chill that seemed to evaporate from the floor.

In the huge living room, there was no one else except Mu Sijue and Xu Youning.

Mu Sijue suddenly stretched out his hand, wrapped his arms around Xu Youning's waist, and took her into his arms.

The distance between two people becomes negative.

Everything was too fast, Xu Youning didn't know what was going on, she only knew that she had fallen into Mu Sijue's arms.

Bang! Bang!

Xu Youning seemed to hear his heartbeat speeding up wildly......

She suddenly remembered a sentence-

What a damn charm Mu Sijue!

Mu Sijue looked at Xu Youning's eyes and said slowly in a magnetic voice: "In my eyes, you will always be very attractive. ”

Xu Youning also hoped that Mu Sijue would say something to calm her heartbeat, but in fact, Mu Sijue simply added fuel to the fire!

Mu Sijue seemed to be wantonly squandering his charm, his eyes turned around Xu Youning, and his voice lowered: "If you don't believe it, I can prove it to you." ”

Xu Youning's mouth was faster than his brain, and he subconsciously asked, "How do you prove it?" ”

A smile crossed the corner of Mu Sijue's lips: "You'll know tonight." ”

“……”

Xu Youning reacted, and his cheeks were instantly dyed with a layer of red as if they had been brushed by a brush with red paint......

She regretted it, she shouldn't have asked Mu Sijue such a "connotation" question!

Mu Sijue asked knowingly, "Is this your expression of expectation?" ”

“……”

Xu Youning almost vomited blood-

She wanted to ask Mu Sijue a soul torture: where was the expectation on her face?

But if you really ask, there is a good chance that the topic will not be clear.

Xu Youning still decided to face the reality, squeezed out a smile, and gave a vague answer: "Ahem, didn't you say take me to eat?" After saying that, he took the hand of Lord Ramus. This time, she was sure that her face was full of anticipation.

Mu Sijue didn't ask, and took Xu Youning to the restaurant.

The windows of the dining room are open to the outside.

The rain fell even heavier, weaving layers of fine rain curtains between heaven and earth, almost completely obstructing the view.

Looks like they really can't go back.

Xu Youning had no choice but to turn his attention back to food.

It's afternoon tea, I don't know when it was prepared, although it is small but very exquisite, basically Xu Youning likes to eat.

"This ...... Who prepares it? Xu Youning asked with some surprise.

"Applejack bought it from outside."

Xu Youning realized that they were missing one person and asked where Applejack had gone.

"I'm home." "His house is nearby. ”

"Oh." Xu Youning pulled Mu Sijue to sit down, "Then let's eat." ”

Because they were all sweets, and they were going to have dinner in a while, Xu Youning didn't eat much before he put down the tableware, picked up the fruit tea and drank it slowly.

If she was not mistaken, Mu Sijue had been drinking coffee the whole time, and he hadn't moved anything on the table.

He doesn't like to eat sweets, Xu Youning remembers.

After four years, this person ...... It hasn't changed much.

Xu Youning looked at the time and found that it was almost five o'clock, so he reminded Mu Sijue: "Shall we call Bo Yan or Jian An and talk to them?" ”

"I'll call Bo Yan." Mu Sijue paused, and then said, "You call Nian Nian." ”

This kind of thing, they themselves told Nian Nian, Nian Nian should be more acceptable.

Xu Youning said "um", waited until the end of school, and directly dialed Niannian's phone.

The little guy should have left the classroom, quickly picked up the phone, and asked excitedly, "Mom, are you back with Dad?" ”

"Not yet." Xu Youning's voice was full of depression, "Mom and Dad, it's raining heavily, it's very big, the plane can't take off, and we haven't gone back yet." ”

"Huh?" Nian Nian didn't know how heavy the rain was, but he was very concerned about Mu Sijue and Xu Youning, "Mom, are you and Dad in the rain?" ”

"No, we're fine." Xu Youning paused, and then said, "Niannian, we have bad news for you. ”

"......" Niannian was silent for a moment, and there was obvious apprehension in her voice, "What's the bad news?" ”

"Because of the rain, Mom and Dad can't go back today." Xu Youning said, "I won't be able to go back until tomorrow when the rain stops." ”

"......" was silent for a while, and Nian Nian asked, "Mom, then I can't see you and Dad today?" ”

"You can't say that." Xu Youning tried hard to coax the little guy, "We saw it this morning!" ”

Nian Nian is not only easy to be diverted, but also easy to satisfy, Xu Youning's comfort of not playing cards according to the routine worked, he laughed out in the next second, and said, "Okay, you guys will come back tomorrow!" ”

"Tonight, will you go to Aunt Jian An's house first?" Xu Youning said, "Mom will pick you up from school tomorrow." ”

"Hmm!" Nian Nian agreed, suddenly remembered something, and said in a tone that wanted to share secrets, "Mom, I'll tell you something~"

Xu Youning asked in a very interested tone cooperatively: "Huh?" What are you going to tell me? ”

"That is, a female classmate in our class told me that I didn't lie to her! I told her before that my mother was very beautiful, and she didn't believe my words before~ I don't even want to pay attention to her now, hum! ”

The little guy is very arrogant, as if he is the one who is affirmed by his classmates, and he is already a little uncommon for this affirmation.

Xu Youning was amused by the little guy and told him to get along with his classmates and promise that he would appear at the gate of their school tomorrow.

She thought the little one would be happy, but she didn't expect the little one to say:

"Mom, it's okay, you can do whatever you like! Anyway, I think you're the best-looking! ”
