Chapter 306: Conversation
Although the days are getting better day by day, Mu Juecheng's heart is always depressed, almost every night he dreams that the little girl at the scene of the car accident that day looked at his begging eyes, every time he thinks of him, he blames himself, although he has tried his best at that time, but in the final analysis, he is still thinking about his future.
Later, after seeing several psychiatrists and receiving psychological counseling treatment, he slowly forgot about this incident and slowly came out of the shadows.
And now, the unbearable past troubled his heart again, Mu Jiecheng sighed, turned around and wanted to take a sip from the glass of water on the table next to him, but accidentally knocked it over, and when he was about to bend down to pick it up, a white hand appeared in his sight, and he picked up the water cup for himself first.
Mu Juecheng slowly raised his head, and saw that it was Li Xue standing in front of him, and his expression froze.
The other party didn't notice the change in the expression on his face, just put the cup away, then picked up the kettle and poured a cup, and brought it to Mu Juecheng with a smile and said
"Uncle Mu, the water is for you."
"Oh, thank you, why are you here? What about Yuxuan? Didn't I come with you? ”
Mu Juecheng came back to his senses and took the water glass, smiled a little stiffly, and took a sip.
"He may have something, I came here alone today, I just want to come to see you, chat with you, and relieve boredom."
Li Xue took a chair and sat down beside Mu Juecheng, her tone unfazed.
"Oh, that's it, Xiaoxue really has a heart."
Mu Jiecheng said awkwardly and awkwardly, not knowing what to say to the other party.
Li Xue pursed her lips in silence, paused for a while and then said,
"Actually, Uncle Mu, I want to tell you something."
"Okay, you say."
Mu Juecheng put down the water glass and looked at the other party.
Li Xue raised her head, looked at each other with her eyes, and said lightly
"Actually, I have an older brother."
"Oh? Really? I just said that you know how it is possible for a girl to wander alone in City A, there must be relatives. ”
Mu Juecheng smiled kindly, echoed, and then changed his words and asked
"What is your brother doing in City A now?"
"Running a company."
"That's good, what's your brother's name?"
Mu Juecheng nodded, thinking that Li Xue's brother was not much older, it was really good to be able to run a company by himself at such a young age, he had always admired those young people with outstanding talents.
But Li Xue didn't answer this question for a long time, just looked at him quietly.
"What's wrong? Isn't it convenient to say? It's okay, I'm just asking casually, I don't want to say it or not. ”
Mu Juecheng thought that the other party didn't want to tell him, and he didn't plan to force it, but in the next second, Li Xue suddenly opened her mouth again, when the words Li Mu reached Mu Juecheng's ears.
Mu Juecheng's movements and expression froze again, he was a little skeptical that he had heard it wrong, and looked at Li Xue and asked again confirmatively
"You just said, your brother's name?"
"Li Mu."
The expression on Li Xue's face did not change at all.
Mu Juecheng was stunned, he didn't know what to say, if he remembered correctly, the name of the person who made himself look like this was Li Mu, but it could be that the two were just the same name,
"Uncle Mu, don't think about it, my brother is the Li Mu you know, your daughter and Zhang Yuxuan all know what he did to you, I also heard about it later, and I also heard about it later, and I am not actually lovers with Yuxuan, it has always been just my own wishful thinking."
"Why are you telling me this? You know that after telling me this, my opinion of you will change dramatically. ”
Mu Juecheng looked at the other party meaningfully, not understanding why the latter chose this time to reveal his identity, it was not good for her.
"I don't know, since I was hurt by his words once that day, I have thought about a lot of things, in addition to Zhang Yuxuan, the second person I think of is you, because only you don't know my true identity now, instead of waiting until you let you know my identity from your daughter or other people's mouths in the future, it is better to tell you now, anyway, Zhang Yuxuan's attitude is very clear, and I don't want to continue acting, so I thought about coming over and telling you this."
Li Xue finished her words lukewarmly, and then looked out the window, unable to find the focus.
"That's... Why don't you tell your brother where I am? You should be on his side. ”
Mu Juecheng calmed down, and there were too many questions in his heart that he wanted to answer, so he continued to ask.
"That's right, I'm on my brother's side, because of this, I didn't say it, because I wanted to make things clear, from the beginning I couldn't understand why my brother did this to the Ye family and the Mu family, I asked him and he refused to say, ask other people's words, I believe that I was driven away before I could speak, after all, my brother has set up a lot of enemies, my sister is naturally not welcome, the only person who can sit down and ask for advice, there should be no one else except you."
Li Xue crossed her hands together, and her tone was a little sad and helpless.
"And in order to make me trust you, you showed your identity as soon as you came, you didn't blindly help your brother, because you felt that before the matter was clarified, helping might have hurt your brother."
Mu Juecheng sorted out his thoughts for a moment and summarized the other party's psychology into a paragraph.
"Uncle Mu is really amazing, sure enough, it was right to find you, I know that my brother may have really done something very excessive to you, my sister is here to apologize for him first, although it is useless, but now I can only do so much, but I am convinced that my brother will not become so ruthless for no reason, he is actually very good in his heart, and it is only for some reason that he has become what he is now."
Li Xue paused when she said this, clasped her hands tightly, and continued
Although I don't understand how far Ye Yuhan and my brother have fought, I vaguely feel that my brother's side has gradually become a disadvantage, he is the kind of person who is more and more unwilling to surrender and admit defeat the more he is cornered, I am afraid that he will not be able to turn back in the end. ”
"I understand, what do you want to know, ask, as long as I know, I will tell you, after all, your brother's affairs have nothing to do with you, I will not be angry with you, and I appreciate your rational behavior."
Li Xue nodded gratefully, thought for a moment and asked
"My memories of being a child are already very vague, but I have a vague hunch that the things I can't remember may have something to do with my brother becoming like this."
Li Xue touched her head, a little helpless, and then made a contemplative gesture and continued
"I remember being sent to a nursing home in the United States by a man, and my aunt there told me that I had surgery because of a car accident, so I don't remember."
"You just said car accidents?"
Mu Juecheng's brain shook violently, and he asked with an excited expression.
"yes, what's wrong, Uncle Mu?"
Li Xue was a little stunned by the other party's sudden excitement and wondered.
"Your parents also died in a car accident?"
Mu Jiecheng struggled to control his excitement and continued to ask
"How do you know?"
The cause of his parents' death was told to him by Li Mu, but how did Mu Juecheng know that it was the cause of the car accident?
"Oh, no, I guessed based on your car accident."
Mu Juecheng changed his words and defended, but the uneasiness in his heart could not be calmed down.
"So, I thought you knew something, I have been separated from my brother for so long, and when I first met, I was a little unexpected, he thought I died in that car accident at first, and then after DNA testing, I was sure that I was his own sister, I don't know how he has lived all these years, and I don't know why he became so indifferent to do such a thing to you, I want to urgently find the reason for my brother on the one hand, and on the other hand, for myself, no matter how bad he is in the eyes of others, He is my brother and my only relative. ”
Mu Juecheng quietly looked at Li Xue with tears in his eyes and said sentence by sentence, the guilt in his heart kept rising, he was now basically sure that Li Xue was the little girl he didn't save at the beginning, as for why the other party was still alive, he didn't know, but seeing that she was still alive, he felt a little better, but how should he tell the other party the truth now, and tell the other party that he was the culprit who caused their brother and sister to see each other so far?
Thinking of this, Mu Juecheng sighed heavily in his heart, and in the next second, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Mu Xiaoya's sharp disgusted voice sounded high
"Li Xue, why are you here?"
"You care about me, where do I like to go, do I need to report to you?"
Li Xue turned her head to look at Mu Xiaoya, and suddenly thought of Zhang Yuxuan in her mind, and her face suddenly became pale.
"Then please leave, you are not welcome here, before I call for someone to blast you away."
Mu Xiaoya walked to Li Xue's side with a cold face, and said indifferently, she knew that she should have let Ye Yuhan come back with her, she just wanted to bring some fruit to her father, but who expected, as soon as she came, she heard that there was a strange woman in her father, she rushed over without thinking about it, but she didn't expect that this woman would be Li Xue.
Although she didn't do anything wrong, but Li Mu committed a crime against her father, Mu Xiaoya remembers it better than anyone else, as his sister, how good can it be, this time it must be a weasel to give a New Year's greeting to the chicken, and he didn't have a good heart.
"What, let someone bomb me, you try, see if I don't make a fuss here, lure my brother over, and the situation will be fun then."
Li Xue had no fear on her face, crossed her hands in front of her chest, and said in a provocative tone.
"You!"
Mu Xiaoya was so angry that her teeth clucked, but at this time, Mu Juecheng interjected
"Xiaoya, don't say it, she didn't have any malice this time, she just chatted with me casually, you go first, I will reply to you when I think of something in the future."
"Then there's Uncle Lao Mu."
Li Xue said lightly, then walked past Mu Xiaoya, and intentionally or unintentionally touched the other party's shoulder.
"Dad, what did you tell her, don't believe her words, don't forget that her brother is..."
"Li Mu."
Without waiting for Mu Xiaoya to finish speaking, Mu Juecheng picked up the conversation, his tone was light, as if he was a little dissatisfied with his words.
