Chapter 196: You Guessed It
Why 1018?
Mu Ci looked at the open lockbox and frowned, the four digits of the password couldn't be put together casually.
But if it's someone's birthday, no one in the family is that day's birthday, if it's not the family's birthday, then what does this set of numbers mean to Mu Cangrin?
Mu Ci began to look through the contents of the lockbox with questions.
A few documents were placed on the top of the lockbox, Mu Ci was not interested in the documents, so she took them out and put them aside, and then she saw an iron box.
It was an old box, looking like a candy box from many years ago.
Why did Mu Cangrin put an old sugar box in the lockbox?
Mu Ci's instinct told her that she wanted to know something in this old sugar box.
Seeing that the secret was in front of her, Mu Ci's hand stretched out to the sugar box stopped in mid-air, she was a little hesitant, and a little afraid, she was afraid that this sugar box was like Pandora's box, and it would change her life after opening.
But her life experience is like a fish bone stuck in her throat, if she can't swallow it, she can only take it out.
Mu Ci gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and reached out to open the old sugar box.
The box was opened, and there was only one photo inside, and Mu Ci was about to reach out to get the photo, when he suddenly heard a loud shout at the door:
"What are you doing?"
Mu Ci's hand shook, the box fell to the ground, and the photo happened to fall in front of her, she hurriedly picked it up, and at the same time saw the person in the photo clearly.
It's her!
It's the woman in the portrait of the castle!
"What are you doing!" Mu Cangrin rushed over and pushed Mu Ci away, eagerly picking up the photo.
Mu Ci was pushed to the ground, and looked up at his father blankly.
Mu Cangrin cherished that photo very much, but he didn't count picking it up, and he took out the sleeve of his shirt and wiped it carefully, until he was sure that there was no damage to the photo, and then he looked at Mu Ci with relief.
"Why are you here?" Mu Cangrin looked at the documents that Mu Ci casually threw aside, and his face sank: "Also, how did you know the password?" β
Mu Ci was awakened by Mu Cangrin's serial questions, and asked with his head held high, "That woman...... Who is it? β
Mu Cangrin's face sank again, and he said sharply: "It has nothing to do with you, you get out of here!" β
Mu Ci walked out of the study in a daze, and the door of the study closed heavily behind her, shaking her body.
This scene is exactly the same as in the previous life, but this time Lin Xinlian and Muddy are missing, and Mu Canglin did not directly drive her out of the Mu family.
Mu Ci didn't know how she walked back to the room, and after the door closed, she slid on the floor, and the events of the past two days shocked her.
First, it is the photo that Mu Canglin hid.
Second, it is a plot similar to the previous life, didn't the ending of the previous life end because of Lin Xinlian's departure?
Thinking of Lu Youcheng and Ling Wanzhou colluding together, and thinking of the familiar scene just now, Mu Ci's heart hung up.
Knock knock
There was a knock on the door behind him.
Mu Ci was stunned for a moment, and heard Mu Cangrin's voice coming through the door panel.
"Xiao porcelain, Dad spoke too much just now, can you forgive Dad?"
Mu Ci opened the door and saw Mu Canglin standing at the door rubbing his hands.
Mu Cangrin was really anxious just now, so he would say such things to Mu Ci, and after driving Mu Ci away, he began to regret it, so he hurriedly came to coax people.
Mu Ci wasn't angry with Mu Canglin at all, she was just curious about the identity of that woman.
"Dad, the photo ......" Mu Ci stopped talking, worried that his problem would annoy Mu Cangrin again.
Mu Cangrin was silent for a moment, sighed heavily, took out the photo and handed it to Mu Ci.
"Look." Mu Canglin hung his head, and continued: "You guessed right, this is your mother, but your mother handed you over to me in the hope that you can live a peaceful life, as for her affairs, she doesn't want you to know, and I also hope you don't ask again." β
Mu Ci stared at the photo in his hand, the woman in the photo was frozen in her twentieth year, wearing a white dress, smiling like a flower, pretty and cute.
Such a woman, just the photo is enough to attract attention, if a real person stands in front of her, it must be like a dazzling spring day, unusually dazzling.
She ...... What is your name? Mu Ci looked at the photo and asked in a low voice.
"Du Qingyou."
"And where is she now?" Mu Ci looked at Mu Cangqian expectantly.
"I don't know." Mu Canglin said: "The last time I saw her, she was holding you who had just been born." β
"And then she never showed up again?" Mu Ci looked up at Mu Cangrin, with suspicion in his eyes.
Mu Canglin nodded and said, "I also tried to find her, but there is no news at all." β
Mu Ci's gaze returned to the photo, the woman was very beautiful, but she couldn't laugh.
What kind of helplessness makes a mother willingly give up her daughter?
Mu Ci asked a few more questions, Mu Canglin didn't know, Mu Ci felt that his curiosity was like a raging fire encountering a pouring rain, and the fire was extinguished, leaving a cloud of smoke that would not go away.
Fu Sinian was very busy after he came back, often going out early and returning late, even Mu Ci could only see him in the company, this state lasted for more than half a month, Mu Ci could only go home from work alone every day.
On this day, as usual, Mu Ci finished packing up the table and picked up his backpack to leave.
"Mu Ci, wait a minute." Fu Sinian's voice remembered behind her.
Mu Ci turned around in surprise, and just saw Fu Sinian leaning leisurely against the office door.
Looking around, the colleagues have almost gone, and the remaining one or two are also busy with their own affairs and don't have time to pay attention to this side, Mu Ci ran to the president's office, and grabbed him when he passed by Fu Sinian.
Fu Sinian was pulled into the office by Mu Ci, and when the door closed behind him, he was pushed into the corner by Mu Ci.
"Mr. FiancΓ©, are you out of customs?" Mu Ci's bright eyes winked at Fu Sinian.
Fu Sinian looked down at her: "Out of the customs? β
"Well, you weren't in retreat some time ago, and you didn't have time to pay attention to me, so you stopped me so idle today, isn't it out of the customs?" Mu Ci tilted his head and looked at Fu Sinian with a smile.
She looked so cute that Fu Sinian couldn't help but want to kiss, Fu Sinian really couldn't help it, he lowered his head and held her lips.
After a while, Fu Sinian was addicted to it before letting go of her.
Mu Ci was shyly lying in Fu Sinian's arms, her cheeks were crimson, like ripe apples, which made people want to pick them.
Fu Sinian wrapped Mu porcelain in his arms, "I'm sorry, I'm too busy to ignore you during this time." β
Mu Ci's brain shook in his chest, and said, "It's okay, aren't you making money to support me." β
Who doesn't like such a sensible fiancΓ©e?
Fu Sinian liked it and kissed Mu Ci again, and then he opened his mouth to say the reason for stopping her, it turned out that there was a small party at night, and Fu Sinian wanted Mu Ci to accompany him to participate.
"It's a commercial cocktail party, there may be a lot of people, if you don't want to go, you can not go." Fu Sinian rubbed the top of Mu Porcelain's head.
He was reluctant to let Mu Ci follow him to entertain those high-spirited businessmen.
Mu Ci shook his head around Fu Sinian's waist and said, "I'll go with you." β
Fu Sinian was too busy during this time, Mu Ci felt that she could count ten fingers when she saw him every day, and now that she had the opportunity to stay with him all night, she would not refuse.
What's more, since Fu Sinian proposed to take her, presumably everyone has a female companion, Mu Ci is reluctant to let Fu Sinian eat other people's dog food alone.
In the evening, in the banquet hall of the hotel, Fu Sinian had just entered with Mu Ci in his arms, and met Su Teng and Qin Kite.
As soon as Mu Ci saw Qin Kite, he threw away Fu Sinian, "Qin Kite, I haven't seen you for a long time, it seems that you are also about to have a good thing." β
Her gaze swept between Qin Yuan and Su Teng, and Qin Yuan's face turned red when she looked at her.
"Little porcelain." Qin Yuan glanced at Mu Porcelain with disgust, pulled her to say hello, and then stayed in the corner.
Mu Ci and Qin Yuan hadn't seen each other for a while, and as soon as the two of them arrived in the corner, they began to tell about their experiences during this time, and Qin Yuan frowned after listening to Mu Ci's affairs.
"Then you're really not going to continue the investigation?" Qin Yuan asked.
Mu Ci took a glass of juice and drank it slowly, and when she talked about it, she was also a little helpless: "My dad doesn't want me to continue asking, besides, even if I ask him, I don't know anything, and the clues are all broken here." β
Qin Yuan understood Mu Ci's helplessness, but there was nothing she could do, so she could only sigh along with her.
Mu Ci rolled his eyes, stared at Qin Yuan and smiled.
Qin Yuan was furious by her, and couldn't help but look down at herself, and finally asked in compromise: "What are you doing?" β
"I'll put my affairs aside for now, and talk about you and Su Tengbei."
Qin Yuan's face turned red: "What can I do with him." β
"Alright." Mu Ci glanced at her and said with a smile: "Don't you know yet?" If there really was nothing to do, would you be willing to accompany him to such an occasion? β
Qin Yuan was told the central matter, his face was flushed and he lowered his head, the sweetness that he wanted to hide but couldn't hide even if he didn't say anything, Mu Ci could understand a thing or two.
However, Mu Ci knows her friends, and she is always very cautious about her feelings, and Su Teng himself has many problems, and it does take a while to test.
This kind of business cocktail party is to eat and chat, climb and make friends, men have men's things, women have women's things, with Qin Yuan's company, Mu Ci doesn't feel that time is difficult, but the juice is a little too much, and Mu Ci is a little overwhelmed after a long time.
Mu Ci got up and walked out of the banquet hall, walking along the usual corridor to the bathroom at the end, and as the distance widened, the surroundings gradually quieted down.
"Let's go"
The sound of the door closing clearly reached Mu Ci's ears, and she turned to see a woman sneaking out of the fire escape.
"Du Anxin?" Mu Ci's eyes raised and he rushed over, "What are you doing here?" β
Du Anxin was startled, and when he saw that it was Mu Ci, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Why are you everywhere?"
"I want to say that you are everywhere!" Mu Ci frowned, "Don't go, I have something to ask you, do you know Du Qingyou?" β
