Volume 1 No. 264 There is a feeling of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge
"You go out first, I have something to talk to Mr. Shangguan alone."
There is a feeling of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.
As soon as Mu Zixiao brought Shangguan Jingyu over, she heard Mu Zhennan say such a sentence with a cold face.
Frozen at the door, Mu Zixiao's eyes widened, and she looked at Mu Zhennan incomprehensibly, she really couldn't understand the situation that Mu Zhennan suddenly made, and it was okay to suddenly want to see Shangguan Jingyu, and now even she had to avoid her!
Let her go in this case?
Not so good!
Moreover, with such an embarrassing and weird first meeting, what private words can they have to talk about alone?
There won't be any bloody plots in TV dramas!
Mu Zixiao stood still at the door, staring at Mu Zhennan who was giving orders, pursing the corners of her lips on one side, and there was a kind of secretly competitive driving.
Compared with Mu Zixiao's silent protest, Shangguan Jingyu was much calmer than her, giving her a relieved look.
The sharpness in his eyes instantly decreased a lot.
Forget it, the above official Jingyu's 'old scheming', what she should be worried about is Mu Zhennan.
Mu Zixiao moved her steps and walked out, and when she closed the door for them, she couldn't help but say more, "That...... Call me if you have anything, and I'll be outside. β
Mu Zhennan didn't show it on his face, but he really sighed in his heart, this girl's heart really flew.
Thinking of this, looking at Shangguan Jingyu's gaze was not very friendly.
After Mu Zixiao went out, the ward fell into peace, and Mu Zhennan looked at the young man in front of him again.
Chu Yingrou is right, Shangguan Jingyu's restrained calmness is by no means something that can be precipitated overnight, and naturally it is not comparable to Shangguan Rui's frivolity and casualness.
This old man of Shangguan, he also knew some about it earlier, but those words without emotion and stiffness are far less practical than real people.
Putting aside this embarrassing identity, he is quite satisfied with Shangguan Jingyu.
Especially, the look between Mu Zixiao and Shangguan Jingyu before leaving just now was seen by him.
If he had always had doubts about the relationship between these two people before.
The look in the eyes just now was enough to dispel his noise.
However, the identity of this Shangguan Jingyu ...... It really made him find no reason to accept it.
Ming people don't say secret words, Mu Zhennan didn't want to go around and say some useless words, so he simply spoke directly, his eyes were slightly forced, "Mr. Shangguan, what is the relationship between you and Xiaoxiao?" β
Shangguan Jingyu met Mu Zhennan's scrutinizing gaze, his expression was calm, He never intended to deliberately conceal his relationship with Mu Zixiao, so even if the person in front of him was Mu Zixiao's father, he was also frank, "I think that Mr. Mu is willing to meet me because he already has the answer in his heart." β
Mu Zhennan heard him say so bluntly, his lips moved, and he only said, "I heard that Mr. Shangguan returned to Pingchuan not long ago?" β
"Indeed."
Mu Zhennan's face was full of majesty, "I think it is necessary for me to remind you that the marriage between Xiaoxiao and Shangguan Rui was already decided before you returned to Pingchuan. β
"Now, they've got out of the engagement."
"So what?" Mu Zhennan looked at his openness, a little uncomfortable, and asked rhetorically, "Does Mr. Shangguan think that after my Mu Zhennan's daughter and Shangguan Rui cancel their marriage contract, they can be with you desperately?" Mr. Shangguan knows his identity! Xiaoxiao used to be Shangguan Rui's fiancΓ©e, and Mr. Shangguan was Shangguan Rui's uncle, and I think Mr. Shangguan should be clear even if I don't need to remind him. β
Shangguan Jingyu did not shy away from it, and bowed his head, "I know." β
Seeing him admit directly, Mu Zhennan continued, "Xiaoxiao is simple, and he may not see the long-term when he does things, but Mr. Shangguan is far-sighted and will not fail to understand the terrible truth of people's words, after all, the most important thing in life is face, I don't want to say some things too ugly, but I think Mr. Shangguan will be a reasonable person." I won't do anything embarrassing. β
"If Zixiao feels embarrassed to be with me, I think I will consider your opinion."
The implication is that he will not be shaken by the words of others.
In this way, he was a little arrogant, but it made Mu Zhennan look at him differently.
Mu Zhennan continued, "I know that there are some things that Xiaoxiao is difficult to decide, so I will simply let this wicked person do it. While the emotional bond between you is not deep, it is better to separate as soon as possible! This is a good choice for both you and Yu Xiaoxiao. I think, Mr. Shangguan understands what I mean, if you really cherish Xiaoxiao, you must not want to embarrass her, and you don't want her to be poked in the backbone in the future, right? β
Shangguan Jingyu understood Mu Zhennan's words, but his firm gaze did not mean to retreat, "I understand what you mean, and naturally I don't want to embarrass her." β
"What Mr. Shangguan means......" Mu Zhennan's gaze shifted to him, and his tone was tentative, "...... Agree to separate from Xiaoxiao? β
"Mr. Mu, I mean, I won't let Xiaoxiao feel any embarrassment because of her identity or seniority. Since these problems are caused by me, I will solve them properly. However, at the beginning, the marriage between Shangguan Rui and Zixiao was agreed upon by my father and you, and some time ago, he felt that this matter was inappropriate, so he canceled the marriage between the two of them. My father regretted this and wanted to find time to visit, but he never had the opportunity. β
ββ¦β¦β
"My father also agreed to the matter between me and Zixiao. Mr. Mu can let me know if he has any concerns. After all, you are Zixiao's father, and my relationship with Zixiao hopes to be fulfilled by you. β
These words were said without leakage, but they blocked all the rebuttals that Mu Zhennan had originally thought of.
Looking at Shangguan Jingyu's steadiness in front of him, Mu Zhennan didn't really have to be too embarrassed.
But he still has to try Shangguan Jingyu's attitude in advance, if he changes his mind with a little difficulty, then he will definitely stop the relationship between them to the end.
But now listening to Shangguan Jingyu talk eloquently, it made him change his attitude towards the young man in front of him.
"You mean, Mr. Shangguan also agrees with the matter between you and Xiaoxiao?"
"Yes."
Mu Zhennan thought that if this was the case, then it would be a different matter.
The Shangguan family values reputation the most, and if the respected Shangguan old man is willing to let go of this matter, then this matter is not too bad.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The waiting time seems a little long,
Mu Zixiao waited in the corridor with nothing to do, pacing back and forth, wandering around the corridor. The elevator made a prompt, and when the door opened, Mu Zixiao's eyes were attracted.
Chen Yuan's figure suddenly appeared in sight, and seeing the person who tried to lower her sense of existence as much as possible, she opened her mouth in advance to call his name, "Chen Yuan." β
In the unmanned corridor, if there was still no way to hear such a clear voice, it would be too much to say, so Chen Yuan stood still, turned around, and respectfully called her, "Miss." β
Walked over and stood in front of him, "Why are you hiding from me?" β
Chen Yuan's response was always one-sided, trying not to involve any feelings, "No." β
"Don't deny it, you've avoided seeing me several times." Mu Zixiao really didn't understand, "Am I offending you again?" Or is there something else you're hiding from me? β
"Nope."
"Do you have any other answers than the word 'no'?"
ββ¦β¦β
Chen Yuan's silence always gave her a very heavy feeling.
It's like a feeling of suffocation coming at you, which makes people very uncomfortable.
Since he didn't have anything to say to her, she could ask him directly.
"What is the relationship between you and Chu Yingrou?"
Chen Yuan's maintenance of Chu Yingrou, she had seen it, but she didn't understand the reason.
And after Chen Yuan heard her question, he chose to respond, but he was still silent.
"Why didn't you answer me?"
"I don't know what answer Mademoiselle wants."
I don't know what kind of answer she wants, but why it sounds so ironic.
"What about you? What are you hiding from me? Or do you think that if you don't say it, I won't know? Eyes pressed at him, and she continued, "You should know, if there's something you're hiding from me, I'll find out in my way." I'm afraid that when the time comes, I won't be able to talk to you so calmly anymore. β
The second half of the sentence is simply a threat.
Chen Yuan's pupils twitched, but only for a moment.
Originally, he just wanted to deceive him, but Chen Yuan's reaction was really strange.
At first, she just didn't understand why Chen Yuan would defend Chu Yingrou, but seeing Chen Yuan's burrowed head and not speaking now, it really made her doubt the relationship between him and Chu Yingrou.
Think about it, in the Mu family, it is not only Mu Zhennan who will help Chu Yingrou speak, but also him.
Her eyes instantly seemed to be stung, and Mu Zixiao spoke again, "Let me ask you again, what is the relationship between you and Chu Yingrou?" β
This time, Chen Yuan didn't speak again, but looked directly at her and said, "Since Miss has the ability, let's find out for yourself!" I don't have anything to say. β
ββ¦β¦β
Chen Yuan always looked like this, and his reaction made her feel like a punch on cotton.
even, it makes her look very domineering.
Mu Zixiao glared at him, and just as she was about to continue speaking, the door of the ward opened, and Shangguan Jingyu came out of the ward and took the lead in calling her name, "Mu Mu." β
Mu Zixiao's attention successfully shifted from Chen Yuan to Shangguan Jingyu, "Why did you come out so quickly?" Are you done talking? It was a little earlier than she expected.
Chen Yuan saw Shangguan Jingyu appear, raised his feet and walked in the other direction.
Looking back while talking, there was no trace of Chen Yuan upstairs, Mu Zixiao thought to herself, this person really came and went without a trace! This is...... Is he avoiding her? Is it so obvious?
Shangguan Jingyu spoke up, this time, he had already stood in front of her, "Who are you looking for?" His gaze swept in the direction of the end of the hallway.
Forget it, the monk can't run the temple if he runs, anyway, Chen Yuan won't leave in the Mu family. It's just that the time is not right today, sooner or later she will have another chance to figure out the truth of the matter.
Mu Zixiao withdrew her gaze and said casually, "It's nothing." "However...... "Why did Lao Mu suddenly see you?" What did you just talk about? Today's Lao Mu is very abnormal in his behavior, so she can't understand what he is thinking!
"I don't know why he decided to meet with me, but, as things stand, he agreed to be together?"
"What?" Obviously, a few days ago, Mu Zhennan still made a clear line between himself and Shangguan Jingyu with righteous words, why did they completely change their attitude after talking a few words together today?
She really couldn't accept the news, no matter how powerful her brain circuit was, she couldn't keep up with the sudden sharp turn of the plot, "What did you all talk about?" β
Before, she was worried that there would be a dispute between them, but now it seems that she is completely worried about it!
