Mu Siying was on the flight the morning of the next day, and I heard Lao Mu say that she met him again before leaving, and handed him a necklace that she had carried on her for many years, which was the first gift he bought for her.

After that day, he locked himself in the room, no matter who he was, Mu Xiaoya only dared to push the door in the middle of the night to look at the old man, and every time he would see Mu Juecheng lying on the table asleep, holding the necklace in his hand.

The past, which should have been forgotten for a long time, is now cruelly brought up again, and no one can stand the heavy torment accumulated over thousands of days and nights. Every night, she would help Mu Juecheng back to the bed, cover the quilt for the other party and then go back to the room to sleep.

Fortunately, the other party ate the meals placed outside the door on time, at least so that Mu Xiaoya didn't have to worry too much about his body.

Li Mu hasn't come back in the past few days, Mu Xiaoya thinks that the other party may mind the gossip outside, and probably plans to cut off the relationship with her like this. That's fine, it's enough for both parties to know each other.

But she didn't expect that Li Mu actually knocked on the door of her house a week later, he didn't break up with Mu Xiaoya because he hadn't seen him for a week, and still walked in with a smile with something as usual, but Mu Xiaoya's expression was a little inexplicably embarrassed, and she couldn't say a word for a long time with a mournful face.

Mu Juecheng walked out of the room today, he was watering the flowers on the balcony, heard Li Mu's voice and walked into the living room. After a few days of being closed, his face looked a little gloomy, and his walking posture was a little different, and he had to use crutches to walk steadily. The whole person was much haggard, just like when he was lying in the hospital bed before.

"Uncle Mu, are you okay?" Seeing the other party's appearance, Li Mu hurriedly walked up and helped the other party to sit on the sofa, and asked worriedly.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm much better when I see you" Mu Juecheng smiled kindly, Mu Xiaoya walked over from the side and handed the other party a glass of water, and then sat down next to him.

"Uncle Mu, Xiaoya, about Mu Siying, I have asked someone to suppress the media and other networks back then, and I have been busy doing it for the past few days, so I haven't come."

"I'm really bothering you, we still have to rely on your help in our family's affairs." Mu Juecheng gratefully shook the other party's hand and said a little excitedly. His extra gray hair is the guilt of this sudden illegitimate daughter and more helplessness, and the iniquities are all young sins.

"It's okay, Uncle Mu also took care of me in my company before, although you didn't say it, I still know that there are a few projects that I took over because of you." Li Mu shook his head, and after speaking, he glanced at Mu Xiaoya again, the other party didn't say anything, but he also gave him a grateful look, this is more important than anything else, Li Mu nodded knowingly. Then he took out the previous tonic and bird's nest from the gift box as usual, and the two chatted warmly again. Seeing that it was approaching the time for lunch, Li Mu had the intention of going back, but Mu Xiaoya, who had been silent at this time, spoke.

"Actually, our family's affairs have nothing to do with you, but thank you for your help, let's stay for a meal today, I'll cook." After speaking, Mu Xiaoya stood up and walked into the kitchen with a little blush, Li Mu sat on the sofa and was stunned for a long time, he couldn't believe what Mu Xiaoya just said, he glanced back at Mu Juecheng, the other party replied with an encouraging smile, and his stunned expression bloomed. He wasn't dreaming, Mu Xiaoya did invite him to stay for dinner just now.

This is the first time she has invited herself, is it possible to think that their relationship is one step closer? He was stunned for a long time before saying a good word, and then ran into the kitchen and gave the other party a hand.

Mu Xiaoya didn't want to trouble the latter, but the other party insisted on helping her, so she didn't say much, at first Mu Xiaoya was worried that the other party would make any trouble, after all, men generally don't go into the kitchen, not to mention that the other party is still the owner of a company.

But Li Mu surprised her, whether it was washing vegetables or cutting vegetables, he did a good job, especially his fast and accurate knife skills when cutting vegetables, which made Mu Xiaoya begin to wonder if the other party was a man, which was almost better than a woman. What made her vomit blood even more was that the other party was still not satisfied after cutting the dish, saying that he could cut it better before the change, and for the first time in her life, Mu Xiaoya felt that she had lost to a man in the kitchen.

Fortunately, her stir-fry skills are not bad, and several pots of vegetables come out of the pot with a tangy fragrance, and the time to eat with the help of Li Mu is much earlier.

When eating, Li Mu praised Mu Xiaoya's dishes for being delicious, she smiled politely and nodded, and when she was about to pick up the pot of vegetables, the other party took the plate one step ahead of her, and said with a smile: "I will give me everything I like, anyway, there are so many other dishes, you can clip others." After that, he put the whole plate of vegetables on the side of the bowl and ate it with relish. The other party said so, of course Mu Xiaoya would not pick up the dishes on that plate again, although it was what she liked better.

The atmosphere of today's dinner is obviously much better than before, in the past, Mu Juecheng and Li Mu chatted enthusiastically, Mu Xiaoya just ate her own, and the three of them were separated by two worlds. Today, Mu Xiaoya also rarely interjected a few words, although it was just boring to say, Li Mu excitedly amplified her unintentional words into a topic, the dinner that should have ended a long time ago dragged on for more than an hour, or because Li Mu's mobile phone suddenly rang and said that the company had something to go back to, so the chat ended.

When Mu Xiaoya was cleaning up the dining table, she noticed that Mu Juecheng's eyes had been staring at her.

"Why did you take the initiative to let Xiao Mu stay for dinner today, and the sun came out in the west?" Mu Juecheng finally couldn't help but ask.

Mu Xiaoya glanced at him, continued to wipe the tabletop, and said casually: "Isn't this what you want to see?" ”

"Ahem, that's right, I hope you can become a couple, you also see Xiao Mu's performance, from before to now, he is very good to me and you, and do you know why he didn't let you pick up that green vegetable just now?" Mu Juecheng coughed lightly twice, and then said. After that, he looked at the plates stacked on the side.

Didn't he say that? If you like to eat, eat more if it's delicious. Mu Xiaoya pursed her lips, not feeling that anything was wrong.

Mu Juecheng snorted coldly and said, "Like to eat? I really don't believe anyone would like to eat such a bad dish. ”

Mu Xiaoya glanced at the other party strangely, thinking that the other party was talking nonsense, there was still a little left on the plate, she took one and tasted it, and as soon as she put it in her mouth, her teeth were spit out before she chewed it, and said with disgust in her heart, is this really burned by herself? Why is it so salty?

"How? Isn't it delicious? Mu Juecheng looked at Mu Xiaoya's expression and couldn't help laughing and quipped, Mu Xiaoya blushed a little and couldn't speak, she then understood why Li Mu took the dish away when she was about to pick up this dish, and lied that she liked to eat this dish, it turned out to be to prevent her from discovering the fact that she had put more salt.

"Xiaoya, I know that my days with you are numbered, now, I just hope that you can find a good family to marry as soon as possible, so that I can leave with peace of mind, to be honest, Xiao Mu's child is really good, considerate and thoughtful, and his career is also a little successful, I am relieved of him." Mu Juecheng suddenly became serious.

Mu Xiaoya put her other hand on the back of the other party's hand, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll think about it." ”

When Mu Juecheng heard this, his mood was also much better, and then he got up and walked back to his room to rest. Mu Xiaoya also handed over the rest of the work to the nanny, and went back to the bedroom herself.

The call Li Mu received was not from the company, but from Su Yuanhai, and he wanted to ask himself out to meet, the reason was that of course Li Mu could guess that it was nothing more than to ask himself when the Mu family would return to his banner, after all, it had been a month.

The meeting place was in a teahouse, Su Yuanhai was sitting in the VIP seat drinking tea, Li Mu walked over and sat down opposite the latter, and said politely: "Director Su, I have admired my name for a long time, and today can be regarded as seeing a real person, and I really have an extraordinary bearing." ”

"I've won the award, but Mr. Li is much younger and more handsome than I imagined, and he is young and promising."

"What does it compare to Director Su?"

"Haha..." The two finished politely, and then stepped into the main topic.

"Mr. Li came out today, and I think Mr. Li should be able to guess what I want to ask." Su Yuanhai helped the other party make tea in his teacup and said lightly.

"I understand what Director Su means, you can rest assured, things are going very well, I believe that it will not be long before the Mu family will be in my pocket, and I will transfer the shares of the Mu family to your name at that time."

Li Mu took a sip of tea and smiled faintly.

"Mr. Li is so confident?" Su Yuanhai also took a sip of tea, he smiled in agreement, but there was a little doubt in his eyes.

"Of course, extraordinary means must be used for extraordinary things, and Director Su should be very clear about this."

Li Mu's eyes were deep, and his voice was very calm, but there was an imperceptible fierceness, and the hidden edge actually made him feel a chill down his spine. And there is only one person who makes him a little shocked by words alone, and that is Ye Yuhan in City A, and that is Ye Yuhan, but now this man named Li Mu also makes him feel this way.

Is it a delusion? He wondered. Instructed his subordinates to check the details of the other party, there is nothing special, the company's results have been mediocre in recent years, but why does he have that feeling like a big enemy, "In this case, I am waiting for your good news in the company." ”

"Okay." Su Yuanhai covered his emotions very well, and after saying that, he got up and left, Li Mu didn't make a move, just said a good word, and continued to drink the tea in his hand.

When Su Yuanhai walked to the door, he looked back at the other party's back a few times, his eyes were a little more alert and cautious, he secretly told himself in his heart that this person should be treated carefully, and then turned around and went out.

Li Mu sat there alone until half an hour later, when there was another strange man in front of him, "Are you sure there is no problem with the medicine you made? Why, nothing has changed in a month. Li Mu's eyes looked outside, but the words in his mouth were obviously for the other party.

"Mr. Li, don't worry, this medicine is chronic, it has an incubation period, and you will be able to see its effect when the time is up." The man lowered his head and lifted the frame of his glasses that fell on the bridge of his nose, and laughed sinisterly.

"How long will it take?"

"At most, it will be two months at most, and under normal circumstances, it will be a seizure in another month, and even if you go to the best hospital, it will not help."

"Good." The corners of Li Mu's mouth hooked fiercely. Then he pulled out an envelope bag from his suit pocket and slowly pushed it in front of the latter.

"I said that as long as you do well, the money will be indispensable to you, and it will be more in the future."

The man took the envelope, opened it carefully, and saw that there was a stack of hundred-dollar bills inside, and a look of ecstasy welled up in his eyes, and he quickly nodded his head to show his thanks.

"Okay, don't meet again after that, after all, it's too risky, just leave if there's nothing else, and I'll take you to Hawaii on my private jet when it's over."

Li Mu put the finished teacup on the table, then took a tissue and wiped his mouth, the man in front of him nodded and said yes, then stuffed the envelope with red money into his coat, covered his chest and left.

Li Mu didn't stay any longer, and left after settling the account and going to the toilet.
