Mu Shuyao never knew that Ning Hongjie cared so much about her image, after all, in the past two years, he had never made any evaluation of her dress or appearance.

Good or bad, never said.

Of course, those scenes like complimenting her for being beautiful and cute in order to show affection in front of outsiders don't count.

"Then you turn around first, I'll go pour a glass of water and go back to the study."

Mu Shuyao meant, since you said it was ugly, just don't look at it, I didn't ask you to come and see it.

Ning Hongjie stood there motionless and looked at her, Mu Shuyao ignored him, and swaggered to the kitchen with a cup.

After pouring the water, Ning Hongjie was no longer in the living room, Mu Shuyao pursed his lips and went back to the study with his slippers.

At half past eleven, Ning Hongjie sent her a message on WeChat, "Where's Aunt Mei?" Why haven't you seen her come back to cook yet? ”

Mu Shuyao then remembered, "I gave Aunt Mei a day off......

In the past few days when she had a fever, Aunt Mei has been sleeping on the sofa in the master bedroom, and she has stayed up for a few days in a row, and she has lost a lot of weight.

Mu Shuyao is not a mean person, he got up this morning and felt refreshed and had nothing to do, so he gave Aunt Mei a day off, anyway, she was there, and she could cope with a bowl of noodles casually.

It's just that she didn't expect Ning Hongjie to come back today.

"And what do I have for lunch?"

Through the screen, Mu Shuyao seemed to be able to see Ning Hongjie's dark face.

"What do you want to eat? I'll do it. ”

Mu Shuyao thought about the limited inventory of the refrigerator, and immediately added, "The premise is that the refrigerator has materials." ”

In normal times, it is not impossible for her to go out to buy ingredients and serve this uncle.

But when she came back from a business trip for a while and was sick for a few days in a row, her work was piling up, so she was naturally not willing to spend too much time serving this moody uncle.

"Four dishes and one soup, whatever you want."

I'm rubbing, this thing is a starving ghost!

Mu Shuyao scolded in a low voice, but his hand replied to him very spinelessly, "No problem, Mr. Ning is waiting, do a good job of calling you." ”

There was a lot of stock in the refrigerator, Mu Shuyao picked a few simple things to do, a little more than twelve o'clock, and four dishes and one soup were served on the table.

Ning Hongjie, who was holding a video conference in the study, ticked the phone on the desk and clicked on, it was Mu Shuyao's message calling for dinner.

"Li Fan, you can convey the next content, and I'll go to dinner."

After neatly explaining, he got up and walked out.

In the dining room, Mu Shuyao had already prepared the soup.

"Mr. Ning, are you going back to the company in the afternoon?"

Ning Hongjie dragged away the chair and sat down, picked up the soup she pushed in front of her and drank two sips, "What are you doing?" ”

Mu Shuyao actually wanted to know if he needed to serve this uncle in the afternoon, but of course he couldn't say it so directly, "If you don't come back, I have to ask you to send some ingredients." ”

Ning Hongjie didn't look at her, "No, I won't come back for dinner at night." ”

Mu Shuyao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the soup and took a big sip.

"I made an appointment with your dad and your brother for dinner in the evening......

The soup in Mu Shuyao's mouth squirted out "poof", but fortunately, her head turned in time, and the soup was all sprayed to the ground, otherwise, all the four dishes and one soup she had worked so hard would have suffered.

She hurriedly put down the bowl, reached out and pulled a tissue to wipe her mouth, and looked up at Ning Hongjie, "Why are you ......?"

The conversation had just begun, and she suddenly didn't know how to ask.

Ning Hongjie's affairs, she is not qualified to take care of them, whether it is business or business.

Moreover, Ning Hongjie never promised her that he would be an enemy of the Mu family for her.

As long as Ning Hongjie is not a fool, it will be clear that the two Ning Mu families have joined forces, it is an absolute strong alliance, not to mention that there is no opponent in Tuocheng, looking at the country, few dare to be enemies with Ning Mu.

And Ning Hongjie pretended not to understand what she wanted to say and stopped, and looked at her with a smile, "What's wrong with me?" ”

Mu Shuyao took a deep breath, "It's nothing, you can eat, I'll go get a mop to mop the floor clean." ”

In the past few days, I have a fever, and the whole person is groggy, and most of the hazy things are my mother or my helpless appearance when I was a child.

After Ning Hongjie said this, she suddenly woke up from her dream, and once again, she was slapped hard by reality.

She hurriedly took the mop and moved her chair back and forth several times.

Ning Hongjie, who was indifferent at first, couldn't help frowning and staring at Mu Shuyao, who was half-bowed and mopping the floor.

"It's just a mouthful of soup, do you need to drag it back and forth so many times?"

Mu Shuyao ignored him, mopped the floor again, washed his face in the bathroom, and when he came out again, he hung a face of water.

She tilted her head and wiped the water on her face with a tissue, "Mr. Ning, you eat slowly, I'll go to the study to draw a picture for a while, and come out to clean up later." ”

Ning Hongjie glanced at the half bowl of soup that he drank on the other side, and the chopsticks that had not been touched at all.

"You're full after half a bowl of soup?"

Mu Shuyao snorted, "I ate a big bowl of noodles at ten o'clock, and I'm not hungry." ”

In fact, she only drank a glass of milk and a piece of toast this morning.

But not hungry, it's also true.

Anyway, after listening to Ning Hongjie's words, she really had no appetite at all.

But Ning Hongjie seemed to have to do it against her, "Sit even if you're not hungry, it's too cold to eat alone." ”

Mu Shuyao rolled his eyes in his heart, but had to go back to the dinner table and sit down.

No one knows, is Ning Hongjie's words just a warning?

If she doesn't obey again, the next time she hears it, maybe it will be more than just a simple matter of eating with the Mu family's father and son.

In short, when there is still room for manoeuvre, she will not give up easily.

She drank the remaining half bowl of soup, and symbolically ate some vegetables and meat, and took a few bites of rice.

She ate very slowly, and when she finished the small half bowl of rice like counting rice grains, Ning Hongjie was finally full.

It is said that if a person's stomach is satisfied, his temper will be a little better.

Ning Hongjie, who had eaten a full meal, did look much better than when he first came.

He put the bowl down, and he was not in a hurry to get up, his hand was put back on the back of the chair, and he looked lazily at Mu Shuyao cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks back and forth.

"Would you like to come with us for dinner in the evening?"

And his tone was much softener than just now.

Mu Shuyao raised his head sharply and stared at him in surprise, "I'll go with you?" ”

Mu Shuyao looked at him in confusion, and he, put his other hand on the table, curled his fingers and tapped gently, rarely, waiting for her answer with a gentle face.

Mu Shuyao hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head and rejected his proposal.

"No, I don't understand what you're talking about, and besides, it's inconvenient for you to talk with me."

With the temperament of that father and son, if Ning Hongjie defected, it was possible for them to tear her up on the spot.

She is not stupid and will not take the initiative to send herself into the mouth of the tiger.

Therefore, when Ning Hongjie's attitude was not clear, she still obediently waited and watched the battle.
