In the past, his favorite thing was to return to his room, and have Ning Tong to accompany him.Right now, he felt that Ning Tong"s laughter was ridiculing him, scolding him and saying that he was not loyal. She had only been gone for a year, and her bones had not even turned cold yet, and he was already impatiently falling in love with someone else.
Back in his room, he always felt guilty, that he had no right to come in again.
Although he didn"t say anything, his heart still couldn"t lie to himself. He started to have feelings for Zhang Xiao that she shouldn"t have. He had questioned himself before, why couldn"t he be like the Twenty-Two, and treat Zhang Xiao as her little sister?
"Cough, cough."
Two light coughs came from downstairs. It was Zhang Xiao"s cough. Because the room was too quiet, so quiet that even a needle dropping onto the ground could be heard, Mu Chen, who had yet to enter the room, could already hear Zhang Xiao"s light cough.
How did she cough?
Did you catch a cold?
Mu Chen turned and was about to go downstairs.
He had forgotten to turn off the air conditioner, and she was not under the covers. She would be cold on the sofa.
He had only taken a few steps when he stopped again. It wasn"t that he didn"t want to go downstairs, but there was a commotion downstairs.
Zhang Xiao woke up.
She was thirsty. When she woke up, she poured herself a cup of water. Just as she coughed lightly, she choked on her water.
"It"s already 12, is the chameleon still not back yet?"
Zhang Xiao muttered as she walked out of the hall.
Mu Chen was afraid that she would notice him, so he stood still and did not move at all. The sensing lamp was also pointing at him, but it had been extinguished at the right time, so Zhang Xiao did not notice that the sensing lamp on the second floor had just been extinguished.
Taking out her phone, Zhang Xiao called Mu Chen.
Mu Chen did not expect her to call him when it was already so late. His phone"s ringtone rang, it was too late for him to turn the ringtone to mute since Zhang Xiao had heard it ringing.
She looked up suspiciously.
Since it was too late to avoid it, Mu Chen could only appear, but his handsome face was tight, as though someone owed him a lot of money and did not return it.
"What"s the matter?" Mu Chen stood at the top of the stairs, but did not come down, instead he looked down at Zhang Xiao who was below, and asked Zhang Xiao coldly what she wanted.
Zhang Xiao looked up at him and revealed a smile, saying, "Mr. Mou, you"re back. I thought you weren"t back yet, so I wanted to give you a call to see when you"ll be back. Are you hungry? Would you like some supper? "
"Thanks, no need. I"m afraid of getting fat."
Zhang Xiao laughed, "You are just a coiffure, you won"t grow fat. Do you want me to do something for you? "
Mu Chen pursed his lips, really wanting to say: Then hurry up and do it. However, his last words were, "Forget it. Even if I"m afraid of acid, I"m still afraid of spiciness."
Zhang Xiao giggled, "Still holding a grudge, it"s been over a month. I say, Mr. Mou, you are really big, can"t you relax a little? "It"s so small that even the connection can"t pa.s.s through."
Mu Chen pursed his lips and did not say a word.
After a minute of silence, he asked in a cold voice, "You stayed, do you have something to talk to me about?"
Zhang Xiao walked in front of the sofa and sat down. She had just woken up and was still sleeping. You"re still covered in poison, and you actually don"t dare to come close to me. You want to stand there facing me? "Don"t worry, we signed an agreement and I will definitely follow it. I will definitely not do anything that I shouldn"t have done. Don"t worry, I won"t fall in love with you."
Mu Chen:...
So it turned out that she always remembered the agreement and always acted according to it.
Yes, that was what he had requested as well.
He was adored by too many women, and he was afraid that she would fall in love with him, so he made a request that she not fall in love with him. But now, he had unknowingly fallen in love with her.
She was still on the track, and he was the one who had cheated.
She lived happily every day, but he lived in pain and confusion.
This was the difference between being sentimental and being heartless.
His feet moved, Mu Chen was walking downstairs.
The steady footsteps sounded again and again into Zhang Xiao"s ears.
Seeing him walk towards him step by step, Zhang Xiao was startled for a moment.
When Mu Chen walked in front of her, she pulled himself back to reality. When Mu Chen sat down, she did not beat around the bush, and went straight to the point: "Mr. Mou, when will you be able to escape? Do you really find it hard to accept the fact that I"m the little sister of the past? Or was it because my father and your brother collided in a car that caused Little Big Sister"s death? I am also very sad that Little Big Sister met with such an accident, but there is one problem, I cannot just wipe it away because of sadness. That car accident was not my father"s responsibility. "
Mu Chen looked at her coldly. He didn"t like her talking about these things to him so calmly.
"If it"s really like this, you can let me avoid him, but you can"t avoid Mu Ya. Mu Ya will say a lot of things now, previously, she will only call you father, but now, she will rarely call you father, because you, as a father, have become a stranger in her heart." Zhang Xiao"s real intention was to let Mu Chen take some time to accompany him.
If he wanted to avoid her, she could take the initiative and hide far away, and only hoped that his love for Mu Ya"s father would be able to be used in actual practice.
Mu Chen kept a straight face and did not speak. After Zhang Xiao finished speaking, he locked her face and asked in a low voice: "You waited so long just to tell me about this?"
"Yes, to tell you this. Don"t look so apathetic. Mu Ya"s matter is the biggest matter for me, so you shouldn"t be apathetic. After all, Mu Ya is your daughter! " Mu Chen"s att.i.tude made Zhang Xiao a little angry, and when she blurted it out, she criticized Mu Chen"s att.i.tude towards him indifferently.
Mu Chen felt that he had been wronged. He was just looking at her with a sullen face, not an indifferent att.i.tude, alright?
However, he couldn"t explain it.
"What day is tomorrow? Does Mr. Mou know?"
Mu Chen thought for a while, then asked: "What day of the week are you going to be having problems?"
"Tomorrow is the weekend again." Zhang Xiao rolled her eyes at Mu Chen, which made him a little sullen in her heart, "Aren"t you going to rest? I"ll be off duty tomorrow afternoon at four o"clock. My business will continue, and you promised me that. Although I can bring Mu Ya along, with Aunt Lan and the others following me, it won"t affect my business, but I still hope that you can free up your time to accompany Mu Ya. "
"I"m going out fishing with a client tomorrow. This client loves going out to sea. "Going out to fish in the sea and even getting them to eat? If we play for a bit longer, it will take at least a day"s time, no matter what."
"Are you the only one in Mu Group that can accompany customers? "From what I know, your company has a Vice President called Meng Yi Fan. That person"s ability is not bad, and Xiujie admires him greatly." He had even thought of trying to pry open Mu Chen"s wall. Can"t you let him go with the client? Must you, the CEO, personally accompany us? "
