Chapter 023: Don't be cowardly

Listening to Mu Zechen's indifferent voice, Wen Peiling was stunned at first, and then reacted, and asked in disbelief, "Mr. Mu, why do you live next door to me?" ”

"That's not the point, the point is, what's your answer?"

Mu Zechen didn't want to explain too much to her at this time.

First, I was afraid that it would scare her, and second, I also felt that there was no need for this.

I felt that the man didn't want to talk more about this topic, and Wen Peiling's original focus was indeed not here, so he didn't ask any more, but after thinking about it for a while, he said lightly, "I don't mind waiting for Mr. Mu to finish the video conference before talking to me, but since Mr. Mu lives next door to me, I want to ...... "I don't have to wait in your room to disturb you."

Before she finished speaking, she saw a vague smile on the corner of Mu Zechen's lips, so that her tongue, which she thought was dazzled, knotted her tongue for a while, and then, she heard the man's rather satisfied voice fall down faintly before her finished words, "If you don't mind, then let's go up, my meeting is about to start." ”

After saying this, Mu Zechen's deep gaze also swept over Wen Peiling's body, took the lead in taking a step, and walked calmly in the direction of the elevator.

Look at the man's tall and majestic back.

Wen Peiling found that he didn't even have the slightest spirit of resistance in his state where everything seemed to be in his hands, and couldn't help but secretly scold himself in his heart for his lack of interest, while repeatedly warning himself that he would not be cowardly when he asked him to dissolve the marriage contract.

……

Mu Zechen's room is 6018 next to Miss Pei Ling.

It is also a luxurious suite with a view, with a simple and elegant living room on the outside and a bedroom for relaxation inside.

After Mu Zechen swiped the door card, he pushed open the door and strode in, casually threw the windbreaker jacket on his arm onto the single-seat sofa, turned around, and was about to say something to Wen Peiling behind him, when he saw her standing at the door with a slightly cramped and uneasy expression, with a look that it was not good to enter, and it was not good to enter.

Look at her tangled appearance that is too hesitant to do it.

After a while, Mu Zechen suddenly laughed, the softness in his heart seemed to be touched by her unintentionally, and after thinking about it, he walked back in front of her.

A large shadow fell from her in front of her.

Before Wen Peiling could react, one of the man's long arms was propped up on her side, and she subconsciously raised her eyes to look over, but she happened to meet the man's dark eyes.

The condensed whirlpool under his eyes seemed to be able to make people fall irrepressibly in just one second......

"Standing at the door for so long and not coming in, is it possible, are you still afraid that I can eat you?"

Lowering his eyes and looking at her who seemed to be a little trance-like, Mu Zechen's handsome eyebrows raised slightly, and he asked casually.

He lowered his head, and she raised her head, so that the distance between the two was so close that she could even clearly feel the warm sensation of the breath from his lips on her face......

A certain girl felt that her face must be red at the moment.

After living for twenty-five years, it was the first time she had maintained such an ambiguous distance from a man who could be called a stranger.

After realizing this, Wen Peiling also subconsciously wanted to take a step back and distance herself.

I don't want to, but the ten-inch high heels happened to hook the soft carpet in the corridor, and I didn't have time to react, and my body had already leaned back heavily-

"Beware!"

A faint sense of horror flashed in her eyes, Mu Zechen, who was standing in front of her, hurriedly called out anxiously when she looked at her unstable center of gravity and fell backwards, and in the next second, the idle big hand went to her waist, and while catching her, with a slight force, he took her whole person into his arms.

"Are you alright? Did you twist your foot? ”

After making sure that she was standing firmly, Mu Zechen also looked down at her, and asked with a faint trace of concern in his voice.

"No, I'm fine......"

Wen Peiling was still a little frightened, and responded in a low voice, and after a while, she realized that she was being held in the arms of the man, and quickly raised her hand to gently push him away, and after stabilizing her body, she looked at him and said, "Thank you Mr. Mu just now...... It's just that I thought about it, this is Mr. Mu's room, and you have an important video conference to hold, so I stay in your room, I'm afraid it will only disturb Mr. Mu's work. ”

The words euphemistically expressed that she wanted to go back to her room and wait.

And, as wise as Mu Zechen, how could he not hear the meaning of her words.

It's just that sometimes there are some meanings that everyone understands in their hearts, and on the surface, it's okay to pretend to be confused once in a while.

"There is a place to work in the bedroom, I have a meeting inside, you wait for me in the living room outside, we don't interfere with each other, how can there be interruptions?"

Mu Zechen made it clear that he was pretending to be confused, his dark eyes fell on her delicate little face, there was a faint gentleness between her eyebrows, and her voice was not as cold and hard as when she treated outsiders, "Or did Miss Wen dare not come in because she was scared, so she casually found an excuse and didn't want to wait in Mu's room?" ”

He is still somewhat familiar with her temperament, and the so-called country is easy to change, and her nature is difficult to change, she should be ......

"Dare to ask Mr. Mu, what am I afraid of?"

Sure enough, I saw Wen Peiling raise her chin slightly, raise her eyebrows and look at the man and ask.

"Then if there's nothing to be afraid of, then why don't you dare wait inside?"

Mu Zechen clasped his hands around his chest, but he didn't answer the rhetorical question, and looked at her in front of him for a long time.

"Who says I don't dare? I'm just really worried about disturbing your work, Mr. Mu. ”

Wen Peiling rolled her eyes angrily, not realizing at all that she was drilling into it according to the man's set, "But since Mr. Mu doesn't feel bothered, then I will wait in the living room unceremoniously, and after Mr. Mu has a meeting, we will talk about the most critical issue between us." ”

As the words fell, the slender and petite body also passed over the man's side, and after his eyes swept around the living room, he slowly sat down on the empty three-person sofa.

Mu Zechen turned his head to look in her direction, there seemed to be a narrow smile in his deep eyes, and after raising his leg and kicking the door of the room, he walked steadily in her direction.

"I'm glad that Miss Wen finally understands the truth that you and I don't need to be polite."

Mu Zechen said as he put his steps on the opposite side of the coffee table, glanced at her on the sofa sideways, and saw a sudden expression on her face, before he held back a smile, and said without giving her the space to argue, "Then you wait for me in the living room first, I will try to end the meeting as soon as possible, and during this time, you can also think about it, and for a while, how to talk to me about this issue." ”

After such a statement, Mu Zechen also glanced down at the time of his watch, and saw that it was more than ten minutes late, so he threw down the sentence 'I'm going to a meeting' and walked quickly into the bedroom inside.

watched the man's figure gradually disappear from his sight.

It took Wen Peiling a lot of effort to digest what the man said, and at the same time, she completely reacted that she had fallen for Mu Zechen's agitation!

She couldn't help biting her lip secretly, despising herself in her heart for being unbearable to be provoked by others, but the words had already been released, and she could only wait silently in the living room after all.

Thinking about it, Wen Peiling also slowly withdrew her gaze that fell on the bedroom door.

Her eyes swept around the huge living room, and for a moment, she was bored and had no choice but to turn on the TV to see the time, but after remembering that Mu Zechen inside was in a meeting, she also sensibly muted the TV, thinking that she was watching a pantomime.

……

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

Mu Zechen, who was in the meeting inside, had no intention of ending the meeting, and Wen Peiling, who was sitting in the living room watching the pantomime, was already a little drowsy, half leaning on the sofa, yawning one after another.

In a daze, the doorbell of the room suddenly rang.

Miss Peiling, who was half-asleep and half-awake, only thought that she was in her room, and subconsciously got up from the sofa to the door to open the door, but the moment she opened the door and saw the hotel manager holding the dinner plate, the sleepy bug in her head ran away most of it at once.

The hotel manager didn't expect that it would be a woman who opened the door, and this woman was Wen Peiling, the female star who Mu Zechen had previously explained to meet all her needs.

I vaguely remember that the room between the two was separated by a wall.

The hotel manager thought that he had knocked on the wrong door, and hurriedly glanced at the room number on the door, and after confirming that he had not knocked wrong, he just wanted to speak, when he heard a low and steady man's voice slowly coming from behind Wen Peiling-

"Something delivered?"

Naturally, it was Mu Zechen who was supposed to have a meeting in the bedroom.

Wen Peiling also turned her head in an instant, took a deep breath, and said in a calm voice, "Since Mr. Mu even called for supper, then this meeting is estimated to be over for a while and a half, I think I still won't bother Mr. Mu, and we will talk about our affairs when we have a chance, so let's go first." ”

was worried that there was no excuse to leave, Wen Peiling had an idea, and after speaking, he made a gesture and walked out the door.

No, the steps under her feet didn't have time to take a step, Mu Zechen had already walked quickly to the door, her big hand with distinct bones gently clasped her wrist to intercept her steps, and said indifferently, "Supper is for you, I see that you haven't eaten much dinner, and you have waited for me for so long, I'm afraid that you will be hungry." ”

When the words fell, no matter what kind of expression Wen Peiling had on his face, he pulled Wen Peiling aside with his big hand, and just left a passage for the hotel manager to come in, so he ordered, "Just put things on the coffee table in the living room, besides, you haven't seen Miss Wen in my room, do you understand what I mean?" ”

"I understand Mu Shao, I'll put down my things and leave."

The hotel manager is also an understanding person, nodded again and again, put the things down, and left the room without looking back.
