Chapter 166: Tempting Each Other
Since he woke up from a coma, he has heard Shen Xin talk about her sister.
I've never seen her, and I don't know what she looks like.
It's the first time I've seen her look today.
An inexplicable sense of familiarity hit his senses, but he couldn't remember if he had seen her.
To get a better look, he lifted the frame from the table.
He carefully recalled the roster that Secretary Jiang had sent him before.
His letter is very good, so it can be determined that there is no Shen Zheng in it.
There are no names, and neither are the photos.
Shen Xin saw him staring at the photos of his sister and Xiaoxing, and said with a smile: "Does the eldest young master think this child is very familiar?" He's the little guy you saw on your last video call. ”
Mu Jinnian came back to his senses, put the photo frame back in place and said, "Yes, no wonder it looks so familiar." ”
"yes, this is a photo he took before he left the country."
Mu Jinnian nodded.
When Shen Xin turned around to draw the curtains, he took out his mobile phone and quietly took a picture of the woman in the photo.
He sent the photo to Secretary Jiang and asked her to check if she had crossed paths with her in the past.
"That's the master bedroom over there, do you want to visit?"
After walking out of the second bedroom, Shen Xin pointed to the master bedroom and asked.
"No need."
Mu Jinnian didn't know why he didn't have the intention of 'catching rape' at the beginning after seeing Shen Zheng's photo.
He even said goodbye to Shen Xin early: "You rest early, I'll go back first." ”
Shen Xin didn't expect him to leave so soon.
Hurriedly sent him to the door: "The eldest young master pays attention to safety on the road." ”
"Hmm."
Mu Jinnian looked at her and stopped talking.
"Is there something wrong with the eldest young master?"
"No, see you tomorrow." He opened the door and walked out.
When Mu Jinnian returned to the car, he received a call from Secretary Jiang.
"How?"
He asked, looking at the photo he had grabbed on his phone.
Secretary Jiang said respectfully: "Mr. Mu, this lady named Shen Zheng, no one in our president's office has seen or heard of her. ”
"Really......"
Mu Jinnian was in a complicated mood.
"Mr. Mu, did you see this Miss Shen when you were receiving treatment? That's why you think she's familiar? ”
"Nope."
He was sure that the first thing he saw when he woke up was Shen Xin.
"Judging from Miss Shen's personal resume, it is impossible for her to have an intersection with Mr. Mu over the years."
Secretary Jiang said: "Miss Shen got married and had children four years ago, and not long after giving birth to a child after marriage, she was arrested and imprisoned for attempted murder of her husband, and was only recently rescued by Second Young Master Mu. ”
Mu Jin had read these resumes early in the morning.
I also feel that she can't have anything to do with herself.
If it weren't for the fact that the familiar feeling was aroused again when he saw her photo today, he would not have asked Secretary Jiang to investigate her past.
"I see."
He hung up.
…
After Mu Jinnian left.
Shen Xin sank himself into the bathtub and closed his eyes.
Only at this time did she have time to think about what Mu Xichen said to herself just now, as well as the way he looked at her.
He told her to stay away from him, for his good!
Also.
There must be a reason why Mu Jinnian has become sensitive recently.
There was also a reason for her to move.
She just refused to move, could it have stabbed her again?
Thinking of this, she sat up from the bathtub.
Then picked up his phone and sent a message to Mu Jinnian.
She deleted and changed, and finally posted: "Young Master, you just said that I should move, won't there be a spare villa for me to live in?" ”
Mu Jinnian quickly replied to her: "As long as you want, you can have it." ”
"That's great, I can grow flowers and vegetables in the yard."
After speaking, she also specially attached a cheerful expression.
After a while, Mu Jinnian sent a bunch of villa addresses to her to choose.
She picked an address that was closer to work.
The next day, she moved in.
In the evening, when Mu Jinnian came to the villa, she was busy working in the yard.
Mu Jinnian wiped the beads of sweat from the corners of her forehead with tissue paper, and asked with a smile: "Why do you suddenly want to move again?" ”
Shen Xin showed as much happiness as he could: "The eldest young master didn't say that I should move to the villa at the beginning. ”
"Most of the Mu family's houses are villas."
"Oh."
She smiled and pointed to the ground where she had been busy all afternoon: "Young Master, I have sprinkled a lot of vegetable seeds here, and when it grows, I will cook noodles for you to eat." ”
"Okay."
Mu Jinnian is not stupid, and it is not that she can't see that she is deliberately making herself laugh.
It is very likely that she will open her mouth to help Mu Xichen intercede next.
He even figured out how he would react if she spoke.
He guessed right.
Shen Xin has indeed been struggling with whether to open this mouth.
If she explained her relationship with Mu Jinnian clearly and asked him to let Mu Xichen go back to the headquarters, I wonder if he would be angry?
The two have their own agendas, but they are at peace with each other.
I just don't know how long I can get along like this.
In order to create an opportunity for openings.
Shen Xin also made an exquisite dinner with his own hands, the first of which was Mu Jinnian's favorite food.
Eat delicacies from the mountains and seas.
Seeing the exquisite four dishes and one soup on the table, Mu Jinnian was still very relieved.
I always felt that he had experienced such a simple little day.
But I can't remember when I experienced it.
Shen Xin put a piece of cheese shrimp in his bowl and said with a light smile: "The eldest young master hasn't officially eaten the food I cooked, try how it tastes." ”
Mu Jinnian nodded.
I picked up the cheese shrimp and took a bite, then nodded: "It's delicious, better than the cook at home." ”
"The eldest young master's words are a bit too much."
"I'm telling the truth."
Mu Jinnian looked at her and said seriously: "Xinxin, I like a small day like now." ”
"Now like this?"
"Yes, it's simple, there's no bunch of servants around, and you don't have to look at a big table of dishes to eat at every meal."
Shen Xin smiled: "If the eldest young master doesn't want to eat too well, just let the kitchen cook less." "It's not that you don't understand Old Madam Mu's temperament."
She thought about it, Mrs. Mu has been rich and noble all her life, and it is impossible to make the dining table simple.
She put a piece of beef tenderloin in Master Mu's bowl again, and said, "If the young master likes simplicity, come here to eat in the future, and I will cook simple meals for you every day." ”
"Hmm."
Mu Jinnian smiled.
He watched her lower her head and eat the rice in the bowl silently, and asked deliberately: "Xinxin, do you have anything on your mind?" ”
Shen Xin was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "No." ”
"Is there anything you want to tell me?"
She met Mu Jinnian's concerned gaze, wondering why he would ask that.
Could it be that his own heart has been seen through by him?
After a short thought, she still shook her head: "No." ”
"Not really."
"Hmm."
Mu Jinnian looked at her and smiled at the corners of her lips.
Then he stroked the top of her hair with his palm: "Xinxin, really good." ”
Shen Xin didn't understand the meaning of his words.
looked at him and asked, "Young Master, what about you?" Is there something you want to say to me? ”
I always felt that something was wrong with him today.
"There's something I want to tell you."
"What?"
She asked impatiently.
Mu Jinnian put down his chopsticks, looked at her seriously, and then said word by word: "Xinxin, let's get married." ”
"Huh?" Shen Xin was stunned.
Tie the knot?
Did she hear it wrong?
