Chapter 26: What About Our Children?
Secretary Mo's eyes were full of amazement, and he smiled lightly, "Are all beauties cold?" β
Hearing this, Gu Meifen smiled dryly, "She's just shy, Yun Qing came to have a drink with Secretary Mo." β
As she spoke, she took Mu Yunqing's hand and used it slightly, quite threateningly.
Mu Yunqing tried hard to squeeze out a smile, and subconsciously looked to the other side, and saw Mu Qiancheng talking to two political officials.
His hand holding the wine glass turned slightly, his clear and handsome facial features were breathtaking, and his gestures were full of alienation and arrogance.
And next to him stood Bai Yanxi, she was standing there like a bird, looking up at him slightly, her eyes were full of love and adoration, and her face was full of girlish heart.
Mu Yunqing's face turned a little pale, the corners of her mouth overflowed a little astringent, and Secretary Mo's displeased voice came from her ears, "It seems that Miss Mu doesn't appreciate this face." β
Mu Yunqing came back to her senses, saw Secretary Mo's extremely dissatisfied expression, and remembered Gu Meifen's words just now, she hurriedly raised her glass, "I'm sorry, Secretary Mo, I respect you." β
After speaking, she raised her head and drank the red wine in the glass, but because she was in too much of a hurry, she choked and couldn't help coughing.
She hurriedly covered her mouth, "It's not good...... Ahem, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. β
After speaking, she coughed and turned around and ran out of the hall, and as soon as she arrived at the door, she felt someone patting her on the back, and she looked up and saw that it was Mu Zichen.
"Why are you drinking?" Mu Zichen asked in a low voice with a worried look on his face.
Mu Yunqing finally eased up, looked sideways at the guests in the hall, and Gu Meifen apologized urgently to Secretary Mo, she sighed slightly, "It's almost suffocating here." β
Mu Zichen smiled lightly and took her hand, "Let's go, I'll take you over there." β
"Which side?"
"A place for you to relax." Mu Zichen took her little hand and walked forward, "Actually, I also hate such occasions, it's very hypocritical, isn't it?" β
Mu Yunqing was slightly stunned, she didn't expect Mu Zichen to say this.
The two came to the gazebo in the back garden, Mu Zichen stretched out and sat down, his head resting on the pillar, "Hmm...... Comfortable. β
Mu Yunqing sat down with him, "But shouldn't you be socializing inside?" What if your aunt and uncle can't find you? Grandma would be angry if she knew you were lazy here, right? β
"Why do you care so much?" Mu Zichen raised his eyebrows, with a fearless expression, "What's more, tonight is the home of the eldest brother, and grandma can't control me so much." β
Hearing this, Mu Yunqing shrugged her shoulders, as long as she was not in the hall, she could completely relax herself, "Yes, why care so much, it will be very tiring to live like this, right?" β
Since following Gu Meifen to leave her father and younger brother to the Mu family, she has lost her freedom, and she has to take care of the people of the Mu family in everything.
Gu Meifen was always afraid that she would make mistakes and affect her, so she was restricted everywhere, and slowly, she became selfless, living like a puppet without thoughts, sending people under the fence and snorting on others......
"I still remember when I was a child, you taught me to learn to resist, to learn to say no......" Mu Yunqing looked up at the sky and recalled, "It's just that I don't seem to have learned it all along." β
Mu Zichen's eyes were shining, and he looked at her fixedly, "Yun Qing......"
"Huh?"
The woman suddenly turned around and looked at him with smart eyes, Mu Zichen suddenly felt that his heart had missed a few beats, he coughed lightly and said, "Have you ever thought about leaving the Mu family?" β
Mu Yunqing was slightly stunned, and after a while, she smiled bitterly, "Have you thought about it......"
"Then why don't you leave?" Mu Zichen raised his voice slightly.
Hearing this, Mu Yunqing looked at him with some puzzlement, "Does Brother Zichen really want me to leave the Mu family?" β
Mu Zichen shook his head, a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, and he looked at her intently, as if he wanted to see her through, "For so many years, you have not had a good time in the Mu family, have you, there must be some belief or reason that has made you persist for so long, right?" β
Mu Yunqing's body froze suddenly, her eyelids drooped slightly, and her whole body exuded a mournful aura.
For so many years, she couldn't agree with Gu Meifen's approach, and when she became an adult, she could return to her father and brother desperately, but she never thought about it that way.
So, is there a reason to stick to the Mu family?
The tall figure flashed in her mind, the deep eyes that made her can't help but sink......
But now?
That had become her reason to leave.
Mu Zichen felt the sad aura on her body, his narrow eyes narrowed slightly, only to see Mu Yunqing shake his head again and sigh slightly, "No...... There is no reason for this, so I have already told my dad that I want to move out. β
As she spoke, she put away her sad aura and tilted her head to look at Mu Zichen with a pretended to be relaxed, "Why did you suddenly ask that?" β
Mu Zichen was slightly stunned, for a long time, he shrugged his shoulders, and the corners of his mouth hooked a light smile, "Ask casually." β
Mu Yunqing turned her head to look at the other side of the garden, there were guests greeting each other, and Mu Zichen followed her gaze.
"Remember the first time we met?"
Mu Yunqing nodded, "Remember." β
When she first came to Mu's house, she was unfamiliar with all the people and things here, and she was full of fear and hesitation.
She knew that she and her mother were not popular with the family, and she knew her place very well, so she became panicked and trembling.
At the same time, she misses her father and brother very much, but she knows in her heart that it is impossible for her to go back, and she will never be able to go back to that happy time.
Mu Lanxin looked at her unpleasantly from the beginning, embarrassed her everywhere, knew how to design her at a young age, and her every step was like walking on thin ice.
Gu Meifen extremely hoped that she could establish a relationship through playing with the Mu Qiancheng brothers and sisters, after all, in her opinion, the world of children is simple, and these are easy.
However, she didn't.
Compared with Mu Lanxin's arrogance, Mu Yunqing is more afraid of Mu Qiancheng's indifference.
He seemed to be cold all the time, he was only seventeen years old at the time, but he had a powerful aura that no one could ignore.
Mu Yunqing never dared to approach him.
Once, Mu Zichen came to play with the two of them, and found her squatting in the corner, so he asked her to participate in their game.
Mu Lanxin was extremely opposed, but because of Mu Zichen's insistence, she had no choice but to give up.
So, every time Mu Zichen came over, he would call Mu Yunqing to play together, although Mu Lanxin was still arrogant and domineering towards her, and Mu Qiancheng was still indifferent, but she could finally participate without Gu Meifen's scolding.
Mu Zichen looked at the other side of the garden in a daze, as if he was recalling something, "At that time, you were just squatting next to that potted plant, small, cowardly, with eyes full of fear, like a poor worm, waiting for me to rescue." β
Mu Yunqing smiled bitterly, "Yes, you must not have thought that after so many years, I am still a poor worm." β
Mu Zichen's eyes flashed, he turned his head to look at her fixedly, and secretly said in his heart, what did he not expect from this......
At this time, his cell phone rang, and he picked it up and said, "I see." β
Mu Yunqing stood up straight and looked at him and hung up the phone, "Is grandma looking for you?" β
"It's my dad." Mu Zichen put away his phone, "I'll come back when I go, you're obedient here, no one will come here, huh?" β
Mu Yunqing nodded, looking at his back as he left, the guests around him recognized him, and there were people who greeted him along the way, and looked in the direction he walked over.
It seems that this place may not be relaxing.
Thinking about it, Mu Yunqing walked out of the pavilion and walked to the other side of the garden, just as she was about to push open the back door, she felt a force attacking, a big hand clasped her, and her body fell backwards by inertia.
Then, the familiar masculine smell mixed with the smell of tobacco came to his face, and Mu Qiancheng almost violently pressed her against the wall, trapping her between the wall and his arm.
"You ......" Mu Yunqing exclaimed in surprise, but unexpectedly, Mu Qiancheng leaned over and grabbed her lips, and attacked the pool domineeringly.
Mu Yunqing's brain was blank, and after a long reaction, he heard the conversation of the guests on the other side.
"Mu Qiancheng, you're crazy!" She tried hard to push him away, but to no avail.
Finally, Mu Qiancheng paused, and in the dark, those evil eyes shot out a cold light, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a cold arc, "Mu Yunqing, is it so impatient?" β
At this moment, his whole body was filled with a violent aura, and Mu Yunqing suddenly felt a chill rise up his spine, "What do you mean?" β
Mu Qiancheng raised his hand to hook her chin with slight force, "It's just that I didn't expect that Gu Meifen's pattern would be so small, and Mo Mingrang could also see it, huh?" β
Mu Yunqing frowned, and suddenly understood, just now in the hall, it turned out that he had seen it.
"My mom she's ......"
Mu Qiancheng interrupted her words and roared in a low voice, "Did I say that I kept my distance from Mu Zichen, huh?" β
Mu Yunqing was slightly stunned, "Are you spying on me?" β
Mu Qiancheng narrowed his eyes dangerously, and his big hand strained slightly, "I said, without my permission and approval, don't have any naΓ―ve thoughts, otherwise, I don't guarantee that it won't hurt the innocent, persuade your mother to die of this heart, how long Mo Mingrang's secretary position can sit, the decision is up to you." β
Suddenly, Mu Yunqing's eyes widened, "You know that it's my mother's wishful thinking, don't hurt innocent people!" β
The corners of Mu Qiancheng's mouth overflowed with a touch of astringency, and it was cold to the bone, "What about our children?" Isn't he innocent? β
Hearing this, Mu Yunqing's face suddenly turned as white as paper, and the whole person froze in an instant, and his heart ached as if he was being daggled again and again.
She raised her hand and pressed hard against her heart, trying to relieve the pain, but to no avail, and the glowing machine and the doctor's mechanical voice flashed through her mind, "Lie down a little, legs open." β
