Chapter Ninety-Six: Tomb Sweeping
By the time Mu Kexin woke up, Shen Guanyu was already sitting on the bed with a laptop to check the progress of the tutor's case.
Now that the weather is still a little cold, and the air conditioner is not turned on indoors, Mu Kexin rubbed Shen Guanyu's warm arm nostalgically.
"How's your body feeling?" Mu Kexin asked sleepily.
"It's okay." Shen Guanyu saw Mu Kexin wake up and put the computer on the bedside table next to him.
Mu Kexin originally wanted to investigate his fault for not paying attention to his body at all, but seeing that Shen Guanyu was already fine, he wanted to simply forget it.
"Kexin, are you satisfied with this result?" Shen Guanyu took Mu Kexin into his arms and asked gently.
"Satisfied, I just want to clear my name." Mu Kexin nodded.
Shen Guanyu asked this because she was afraid that Mu Kexin would not feel that the punishment was enough, after all, the damage she had suffered could not be truly erased, and her reputation had been damaged in the end.
"By the way, Fang Ze sent me a courier." Mu Kexin remembered this incident and said it.
Shen Guanyu frowned when he heard this.
"What did he send?"
Mu Kexin told Shen Guanyu about those things, along with the words on the card that Fang Ze wrote.
When Shen Guanyu heard this, he said in a deep voice, "I know." He said he understood, but he was very jealous inside.
He knew Mu Kexin, and knew that since she was able to mention Fang Ze calmly and accept those gifts, he wanted to let go of those bad feelings towards Fang Ze.
This gave Shen Guanyu a sense of crisis.
"I can give you those gifts too." Shen Guanyu was not to be outdone, and added another sentence.
"Don't be jealous." Mu Kexin was not very interested in those gifts, but she really felt Shen Guanyu's jealousy. She took the initiative to kiss Shen Guanyu's face to show comfort.
Mu Kexin took the initiative to please him, and he pressed Mu Kexin under him, "Do you know what you're doing?" His breath became rapid.
"I know." Mu Kexin pulled down Shen Guanyu's neck with her arm, and the two got closer.
Shen Guanyu watched her moves, his eyes darkened, and he kissed her unceremoniously.
In order to make Shen Guanyu feel at ease, Mu Kexin took the initiative to give her a hug. Mu Kexin cooperated with Shen Guanyu, and the two rolled into the white sheets.
This roll slept again into the afternoon, and the two of them were awakened by hunger.
Shen Guanyu looked at the tired Mu Kexin, and secretly felt guilty in his heart, he was a little unrestrained.
"Kexin, I'll cook for you." Shen Guanyu was alive and well at this time, where could he see a little sick.
Mu Kexin's whole person was trapped in the quilt, and she snorted as an answer.
When Shen Guanyu finished the meal and planned to ask Mu Kexin to get up to eat, he felt that Mu Kexin's body was hot.
Shen Guanyu thought to himself, wouldn't it? Was Mu Kexin infected by him?
He took out the thermometer again and measured Mu Kexin, and it turned out that if you have a cold, you can't get in close contact, it will be contagious. Mu Kexin is having a fever.
This made Shen Guanyu immediately regret it.
He took out the medicine he took yesterday, and after reading the instructions, he washed warm water and fed Mu Kexin to drink it.
Such a result made Shen Guanyu a little helpless, so he had to take good care of Mu Kexin.
Fortunately, Mu Kexin's cold was not serious, otherwise he would have blamed himself even more.
On the day of Qingming, the two of them were almost completely cured. Finally, none of them were affected.
On the morning of Qingming Day, the Shen family sent a car to pick up Shen Guanyu and Mu Kexin.
In order to cater to the occasion, Mu Kexin wore a black long skirt, while Shen Guanyu wore a black suit with a flower pinned to the neckline.
Old Lady Shen and Shen Xiongzhong did not smile as usual. The atmosphere was heavy.
Shen Guanyu quietly leaned into Mu Kexin's ear and said, "Don't be afraid, this is the tradition of the Shen family, which represents respect." ”
Mu Kexin nodded, and also adjusted her facial expression.
There was a light rain in the air, with a fresh scent and the smell of wet earth.
The two of them followed the elders to the cemetery, which was the most expensive in the city, and a small plot of land could buy a house.
Many elders of the Shen family are buried here, along with many of Shen Xiongzhong's former comrades-in-arms.
After Mu Kexin and Shen Guanyu presented flowers to the deceased elders of the Shen family, they stood behind.
At this time, Shen Xiongzhong was talking to himself in front of the tomb.
Shen Guanyu looked around and no one was paying attention, so he took Mu Kexin's hand and led her to the side of the path.
Mu Kexin was a little wrong, but she followed Shen Guanyu's steps.
Shen Guanyu took Mu Kexin through the trail and arrived at the other side of the cemetery.
"Kexin, I'll take you to meet two people." Shen Guanyu thought for a while and slowly spoke, "One of them is called Mingmei, and the other is her son Mingyuan. ”
"What is Mingrui?" Mu Kexin heard the other party's name and immediately asked.
"Mingrui is Mingmei's daughter." Shen Guanyu took her and continued to walk.
"I don't know why Mingrui didn't have a surname with my father, and Aunt Mingmei never mentioned this matter in front of me." Shen Guanyu continued.
"Aunt Mingmei is grandpa's goddaughter and the daughter of grandpa's comrade-in-arms." Shen Guanyu had already taken Mu Kexin to the end of the cemetery at this time.
After Mu Kexin understood the relationship between the characters, she followed Shen Guanyu and stood in front of a tombstone.
On the tombstone was a beautiful woman over forty years old, still charming, wearing a long black lace dress, she was smiling dignified at Mu Kexin and Shen Guanyu. Apparently it's just bright.
And the other piece that clings to this tombstone is Mingyuan. In the photo, he is dressed in a decent suit, the hair on his forehead is combed back, his face is handsome, and the whole person looks extremely capable.
Mu Kexin thought that Shen Guanyu would say something, but he was silent. He stared at the photo of Aunt Mingming, and his whole face was painful.
Mu Kexin looked at their old age and was a little surprised in her heart.
"Did something happen to them?" Mu Kexin asked softly.
Shen Guanyu shook his head, "Some accidents." He was reluctant to say more.
Mu Kexin also wanted to ask about something, but saw Shen Guanyu's gaze staring at Mingyuan very complicated. She asked meaningfully, "Guanyu, why do you look at Mingyuan like this?" ”
Who knew that Shen Guanyu was emotionally abnormal when he heard this name, "I didn't." His deep voice echoed in Mu Kexin's ears.
Mu Kexin wondered if the two had a holiday, but looking at Shen Guanyu's expression, he still didn't ask after all.
Shen Guanyu also looked reluctant to say more, which made Mu Kexin very suspicious.
Sensing that Shen Guanyu's emotions were a little excited, Mu Kexin took the initiative to hold Shen Guanyu's hand, "Let's go." She proposed.
Shen Guanyu nodded, no longer looked at the two of them, and followed Mu Kexin back the same way.
"Today we are here to see Aunt Mingming, don't mention it to grandparents and others." Halfway through, Shen Guanyu suddenly reminded.
When Mu Kexin heard this, she showed a puzzled expression.
Shen Guanyu explained, "The grandparents love them very much, and now they can't accept the fact that they left, and they always ask someone to send flowers, if we mention it, it will make the grandparents sad." ”
Mu Kexin immediately understood, nodded, and agreed to Shen Guanyu.
Shen Guanyu only showed a smile at this time, as if he was relieved.
When the two returned to the same place, Old Man Shen and the others had just finished.
"Where have you been?" Old Lady Shen asked softly.
"We went to the bathroom." Shen Guanyu replied.
Old Mrs. Shen nodded, didn't say anything more, and let the two get into the car.
The car of the old mansion sent Mu Kexin and Shen Guanyu back home and left.
"Guanyu, why don't we go somewhere to play?" Mu Kexin noticed that Shen Guanyu's mood had not been very good since she was in the cemetery, and in order to divert his attention, she asked.
"It's raining outside, and it's a bit of a hassle, so let's see. By the way, how is your AI research project going? Shen Guanyu had no intention of going out for the time being, so he changed the topic.
Mother Shen watched the two sit down in the living room, put two cups of warm water on the coffee table, and left.
"It's going well, it's not just our group that the city has noticed the benefits of this project, and now the market is almost divided." Mu Kexin replied.
As far as she knows, even Mu's has developed this technology, but she doesn't know which company they are working with.
The reason why she finally chose not to pursue Mu Wanting was because she found out that the Ye family was also involved in the competition for capital.
With her current strength, Mu Kexin can't fight the Ye family at all.
"It's okay, let's just do our part." Yun's Group was the first to seize the opportunity, so the market share is enough.
If there are no more companies competing, the market may be a stagnant pool.
"The big families in this city are getting stronger and stronger, and they can't get any benefits from it. The Ye family and the Mu family both hooked up with these people. Mu Kexin said slowly. The Shen family was also among them, but because of the Yun family, the Shen family did not interfere in this matter.
"You just didn't pursue Mu Wanting because of this?" Shen Guanyu was so smart that he reacted immediately.
He frowned Junxiu's brows, "Kexin, don't you have confidence?" ”
Mu Kexin didn't expect to be guessed by Shen Guanyu so quickly, she nodded.
"I am your confidence, the Shen family is your confidence, you don't need to be afraid." Shen Guanyu approached her, wanting to give her confidence.
Mu Kexin is used to not bothering others, and only relies on herself to solve things. This made Shen Guanyu very helpless, although he knew that Mu Kexin was already changing, but it was still a feeling of not being needed.
"I know, Mu Wanting's matter is not a big deal, I don't need you to do it." Mu Kexin's heart warmed, and she suddenly softened.
The two chatted for a while, and then planned to deal with work matters first.
Mu Kexin and Shen Guanyu discussed that if the rain stopped in the afternoon, they would consider going out again.
Working hours always pass quickly, and the two of them slept again after lunch. When I woke up, the rain had stopped.
Shen Guanyu suddenly became interested, "Kexin, let's go out, shall we?" ”
Mu Kexin naturally wouldn't refuse, she changed her clothes and went out with Shen Guanyu.
"Where are we going?" Mu Kexin, who got into the car, looked at Shen Guanyu's handsome side face and asked.
Probably because she got used to it, even in front of Shen Guanyu's handsome face, she only had some infrared face and a rapid heartbeat.
"Guess." Shen Guanyu didn't answer her.
I saw the car turn into the parking lot of a shopping mall, and Shen Guanyu took Mu Kexin to take the elevator upstairs.
When she saw the name of the movie theater, Mu Kexin understood that Shen Guanyu was taking her to watch a movie.
Shen Guanyu smiled at her, went to the counter to get the movie ticket, and bought two buckets of popcorn and Coke.
He is tall, handsome, and has an extraordinary temperament, which causes whispers among the little girls in the cinema. Shen Guanyu didn't hear it, and walked straight to Mu Kexin's side.
It was the first time he had a movie with a girl, and he felt a little unsteady with his hands holding popcorn.
Mu Kexin noticed Shen Guanyu's nervousness, and suddenly felt that she was a little infected by Shen Guanyu, and couldn't help but increase her heartbeat.
