Mu Shuyao admired Ning Hongjie very much, obviously, in this matter, she was the victim.

But whenever he mentions this, he always puts on the appearance of an angry little daughter-in-law.

Moreover, every time he mentioned it, he had to denounce her again and judge her once.

For his unwarranted accusations, Mu Shuyao was too lazy to defend himself.

Especially on a day like today, she didn't want to have any argument with him, or even the slightest bit of unhappiness, she didn't want to have it.

Ning Hongjie saw that she hung her head and didn't squeak, and when she got to the reproach in her mouth, she swallowed it back.

For women, Ning Hongjie has never bothered to think about it.

Except, of course, his baby sister Ning Yuxuan.

Because he disdains to spend any effort on it, so, in his eyes, there are probably only two kinds of women in his world.

One is that he has seen countless strong women in the workplace who do not let women shave their eyebrows, such as several middle and senior executives of Ning's whose abilities are no different from or even better than men, they live the same life as male elites in the workplace, they sleep five hours a day, have no time to date, no time to take care of their families, and work is life.

One is the rich wife who relies on expensive clothes and material stimuli to seek the joy of life all day long, such as his mother and the main wife of the Mu family, they have no career of their own, and their joys, sorrows and sorrows are all determined by the upper limit of the bank card and whether the limited edition is rushed.

However, he had only recently discovered that his legal partner, Mu Shuyao, did not seem to be able to be categorized simply or broadly into either of the two categories of women he had categorized.

And her inability to classify made all his previous simple and crude methods of dealing with women ineffective.

For example, right now, according to his style, he must not relentlessly denounce her a few more words, but looking at her wilting and listless appearance, his denunciations are a little unspeakable.

He tilted his head to stare at her, "So, you are doing so many actions today, in fact, you are atoning for your sins?" ”

These words are much milder than those denunciations.

Last night, she said that he would accompany her for her birthday, and in that state of confusion, he believed it.

But when you wake up and think about it with your brain, it seems that it's not the same thing.

Mu Shuyao didn't expect him to suddenly think about this, after all, it's been so long since this matter has passed, and it's long overdue to turn the page.

She hesitated, "I thought, since we want to live like this, we can't be like enemies, we always have to see each other every day, wouldn't it be better for everyone to back down and get along more comfortably?" ”

Mu Shuyao has the mentality of not denying or admitting it, hoping to fool the past.

But in fact, if Ning Hongjie hadn't caught her mother's weakness, she wouldn't mind having a big fight with him and then breaking up.

Ning Hongjie seemed to really believe her words, and snorted, "You know how to think this way!" ”

The private room is small, but it is elegantly furnished, with dewy roses on a square table and goose-yellow candlelight swaying in the breeze.

Ning Hongjie sat down calmly and glanced at the red wine on the table.

"You ordered it on purpose?"

This wine is Ning Hongjie's favorite red wine, and the price is expensive, so unless the guest makes a reservation in advance, it will not be drunk here.

"Well, I don't know much about wine, I remember that you drank this wine at several family banquets, so you asked people to order a bottle."

Ning Hongjie's thoughtful gaze swept over the flowers and candlelight, and finally landed on Mu Shuyao's face.

"Didn't you say your birthday?"

Mu Shuyao didn't understand what he meant, "Well, it's just a little bit ahead, it doesn't mean anything special." ”

"It's your birthday, I should celebrate you, right?"

Ning Hongjie said, took off his blazer, and put his hand on the back of the chair.

Mu Shuyao waved his hand indifferently, "It's all the same, just be happy." ”

Of course, if Ning Hongjie is really her husband who really loves her, he will of course celebrate her birthday.

But he wasn't.

Ning Hongjie poured himself a glass of water, took a sip of it, and asked casually.

"If you want any gift, I'll ask Liu Lifan to buy it tomorrow, or you can just cash it out."

Sure enough, people like him know best about disappointment.

Fortunately, she didn't expect much from him, so when she heard him ask, she smiled generously.

"Then go out and see where there are flower girls, buy flowers!"

She hadn't thought of anything extra from him.

Ning Hongjie was skeptical, "That's it?" ”

Mu Shuyao nodded, "Yes, that's it!" ”

Feeling a little hot, Mu Shuyao took off his shawl and covered his legs.

Ning Hongjie's gaze seemed to glance at her neck inadvertently, "Why don't you wear that necklace that the charity will photograph?" ”

Mu Shuyao smiled, "It's too flamboyant, next time." ”

In fact, not only that necklace, but also many gifts given to her by Ning Hongjie out of courtesy, she didn't wear them much.

And those expensive gifts were locked in the safe by Mu Shuyao, ready to be returned to Ning Hongjie as they were on the day of the divorce.

"Publicity? A broken necklace, what's so flamboyant? ”

Mu Shuyao snorted, and was about to tease him for his wealth, when the door was suddenly pushed open with a "bang", and then, a familiar voice that Mu Shuyao had listened to for more than 20 years came over.

"Mu Shuyao, I'm going to kill you!"

Before Mu Shuyao could react, the figure had already rushed in through the door, and Ning Hongjie got up very quickly and stood in front of the table to block Mu Shuyao behind him.

The figure who rushed in almost didn't pause, and as soon as his hand was raised, a flash of water flashed, and a pot of hot water with hot air splashed on Ning Hongjie's body.

Mu Shuyao, who was blocked behind the tall figure, heard a crisp sound of "pop" before he could figure out what the situation was.

"Mu Liying, what are you crazy about?"

Mu Shuyao hurriedly stood up, squeezed out from behind Ning Hongjie to take a look, only to see that Ning Hongjie's shirt and pants were mostly wet, he grabbed Mu Liying's hand with one hand, and then slapped it out again.

Mu Liying was stunned by Ning Hongjie's two palms, and her cheeks quickly swelled.

Mu Shuyao withdrew her gaze from Mu Liying's face and looked at Ning Hongjie, only to find that his body seemed to be steaming, and the water sprinkled on the ground was the same, she was shocked, and reached out to gently touch Ning Hongjie's clothes, it was hot!

Oh my God, Mu Liying is really crazy, right?

Actually, take boiling water to splash people?

"Ning Hongjie, are you okay?"

Mu Shuyao looked at him worriedly, his hands trembling slightly, wanting to lift his clothes to take a look.

Ning Hongjie responded to her calmly, "How can it be okay, I'm not made of stone!" “

Mu Shuyao bent down, wanting to see his injuries, but Ning Hongjie suddenly dodged away, and then, there was a loud bang behind her.

She turned her head and saw that it was Mu Liying who was pushed down by Ning Hongjie and fell on the coffee table.
