Chapter 49: The Color of Solitude
Chen Zhuang was thoughtful, but did not continue to ask.
After sending Mu Xi back, Chen Zhuang's car stopped downstairs in Lansheng Group and entered the president's office.
"Brother, are you sure you want to do this? Mushi, sheβ" Mushi she finally got out of the mud, and he pulled her in again.
An Zhi lay lazily on the chair slightly, and his hand gently tapped on the table.
As if thinking about something, he frowned. "If you want to achieve great things, you don't want a mother-in-law. And how do you know that she doesn't need me? β
Chen Zhuang wanted to say something, but he stopped talking, "I know." β
"Auntie's heart transplant is going well, is her body recovering well?"
"Well, my mother is recovering well now, brother doesn't have to worry, I'll go back first if it's okay." Chen Zhuang's eyes wandered, and he just wanted to get out of here quickly.
"You have to know what you want, and then what you want to do, or you get out of my sight as soon as possible, and I won't raise idlers." Cold words, ruthless orders, knowing that it was wrong, Chen Zhuang had to carry it out.
Chen Zhuang was a classmate of Mu Xi, and because of Liang Kuan's kidnapping case, he had seen Ni Hongliang's photo.
Although he didn't know what the relationship between Mu Xi and Ni Hongliang was, Ni Hongliang had been looking for trouble with Mu Xi, and Mu Xi went abroad.
An Zhi said that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and said that he wanted to win over Mu Xi, but Chen Zhuang couldn't bear to let Mu Xi return to this quagmire.
The next day, the weekend.
Mu Xi and Shen Mu were lying barefoot in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, the sun was shining outside, it was a rare good spring day.
As far as the eye can see, there is a tree of kapok in full bloom, and the fiery red flowers are rushing to bloom. Mu Xi lay on Shen Mu's lap, leisurely listening to the music that flowed slowly from the stereo.
Shen Mu sat up and helped Mu Xi, who was lying on her lap, braid her hair.
Mushi glued a red kapok flower with his fingers, placed it on his eyes, and then opened his eyes and watched the sunlight shine from the petals, slowly penetrating along the texture of the petals' skin.
The warm and silent spring sunshine pours down like water through the red petals. It's not dazzling, but it's dazzling, like the boy under the kapok tree.
He said that the kapok tree blooms first and then grows leaves...... "Muhi, who was lying on the ground, removed the kapok from his eyes, and his beautiful eyes full of sorrow were full of tears.
"What's wrong with you? Mushi. Shen Mu had been focusing on braiding her hair, and she didn't notice anything unusual about Mu Xi, but now that she saw it, she had already cried and her eyes were red.
"It turns out that the colors of loneliness are colorful, and I used to stubbornly think that it was black and white." Muxi closed his eyes, and the color of kapok was the color of loneliness for Muxi.
"I still have time to say that I like him, but before I have time to hug him properly, he left......" There was already a lot of things here, Mu Xi turned over and hugged Shen Mu's legs tightly with trembling, helpless, and crying.
How she wished it was the same April day, the same kapok open, as long as she opened her eyes, he was still in front of her.
If, if there is an if, Mu Xi doesn't want to know Qiao Shaoyu, so that it won't bring him disaster.
The acacia that penetrated into the bones slowly devoured Muhi, and it was like a net, slowly wrapping her, making her die in pain.
Some people say that people who haven't had time to say goodbye will definitely meet, but Qiao Shaoyu left forever, leaving Mu Xi to live alone.
"Mu Xi......" Shen Mu looked at her crying distressedly, but there was nothing she could do.
Qiao Shaoyu died suddenly, Bailong was imprisoned, and Mu Xi went to a foreign country. After five years of leaving, Shen Mu and Liang Kuan were left with infinite sighs.
The time they spent together was rushed, and it was only a year, from spring to winter, as if it had been a lifetime.
The heart full of holes, and their youth, youth is like a barren old age.
"Let's go see him when you have time!" Shen Mu stroked Mu Xi's back and said.
Memories are like a movie, and the moments of time are touching to tears.
If you were allowed to do it all over again, would you still be so hasty and full of regrets about your youth?

Today, Mu Xi is going to go to Huanan's house with Shen Mu, because Bailong is about to be released from prison. You can't keep it hidden, in the same place, sooner or later, you will be a goof.
At this time, the mobile phone rang, and Mu Xi took a look, it was Chen Zhuang's.
"Chen Zhuang, is there something wrong?"
"Nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace, there is a charity party today, I lack a female companion, help me." Chen Zhuang said pitifully.
"Does Young Master Chen still lack a female companion?"
"Not lacking, but I lack you."
Hearing Chen Zhuang's words, Mu Xi smiled and said, "Tsk, the local words are full marks." β
"Thanks for the compliment, I mean really. It was hosted by Mr. Ni, a famous philanthropist in our city, and I had to go. β
Mr. Ni? Mu Xi's face instantly became solemn, "Is it called Ni Hongliang?" β
"Oh, you know? It's called Ni Hongliang. β
"I don't know, I've just admired the name for a long time, when, just returned to China, I also want to rely on the blessing of Chen Gongzi to expand my contacts."
"You're welcome, that's what I mean, the party starts at 8 o'clock in the evening, and I'll come to pick you up at 7 o'clock."
Putting away the phone, Muxi took a deep breath, and finally could meet the person she had dreamed of pulling into hell.
Shen Mu saw that Mu Xi had been standing stupidly, pressed the horn of the car, and said, "Get in the car, what's the problem?" β
Mushi smiled apologetically and sat in the passenger seat.
"I may not be able to go to Brother Xiang's house today, so Chen Zhuang asked me to go out to catch up. Let's go to the eldest brother's house another day, and there is no hurry. "If you go to Xianghuan's home today, you will definitely be left to eat, and you will be delayed when the time comes.
Shen Mu understood Mu Xi's concerns, according to the rules of Xiang Huanan's family, Mu Xi would definitely stay at his house when he went, and Mu Xi would not be free at that time. And she felt it vaguely. Muhi's return to China this time is definitely not simple.
Shen Mu was very worried that Mu Xi would not be able to let go of Qiao Shaoyu, and he was also worried that Mu Xi would take revenge.
"This Chen Zhuang has not been in contact for many years, and now he is suddenly contacted, and he is not at ease."
"I returned to China to look for my comic partner, and Chen Zhuang said that he had a way, so I went to meet him tonight. Now the task is to help me choose a dress, Miss Shen, your strengths. "The habit of not wearing skirts since I was a child has always made Muxi have no skirts.
"Don't worry, it's on me. Let's go shopping. Shen Mu drove towards the city center.
At seven o'clock in the evening, a chubby man in a suit drove a black sedan to pick her up.
The man said politely, "Hello Miss Mu, my name is Baoda, and Mr. Chen specially instructed me to pick you up."
Mu Xi looked at this man with an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
In the car, Mu Xi kept her eyes closed, and when she was abroad, she kept thinking about what kind of opening sentence she should say to Ni Hongliang if she saw him.
It's been a long time, or is it okay?
Baoda has been secretly looking at Mu Xi behind her, this girl is really familiar, she looks like she has seen it before, but she can't remember where she has seen it.
