She longed for a warm home, a loving husband, a lovely child.
Ning Zhi Yuan looked at her, and said with a smile that was yet not a smile: "My Cousin's mother wanted to introduce me to a girl, and flatter her until there is nothing in the world, and I was moved, and agreed to go on a blind date. In the end, that girl refused to go home and do it with me. Looks like I only have one life left to live." The last sentence was a deliberate sigh.
Zhang Xiao knew that he was talking about her, and calmly replied: "Why force yourself if there's no such thing as fate."
Ning Zhi Yuan looked at her again, but didn't say anything as he continued to eat his food.
After a while, he kindly asked Zhang Xiao: "Do you want to eat some?"
"Thank you, that's not necessary. I have a classmate for dinner tonight." If she promised Gao Shao Liang that she would definitely gather with a few Old classmate s, she wouldn't go back on her word.
"Then I'll eat them all." Ning Zhi Yuan said as he went to fill the bowl with food. He kindly asked Zhang Xiao if he wanted to eat it. Actually, he wanted to know if he could eat it alone.
Mu Ya was too young, she rarely ate, so she couldn't eat much.
Zhang Xiao laughed, "NINGHAI, if you like it, then eat it."
Ning Zhi Yuan had already finished scooping up the rice and returned to the table. He was probably hungry, as he had never eaten anything else before. Zhang Xiao's dishes were also very delicious, even though they were all simple dishes. As expected of the boss of the catering business, his culinary skills were exceptional.
Half an hour later.
Maybe Zhang Xiao had personally cooked a hot meal for Ning Zhi Yuan, or maybe it was because Zhang Xiao was her little sister from back then. Ning Zhi Yuan, who had a good impression of Zhang Xiao, had a much better attitude towards him than before. Without waiting for Zhang Xiao to ask, they took the initiative to send Zhang Xiao and the others back to Mu Family.
After returning to the Mu Family, Zhang Xiao didn't eat dinner. She only fed Mu Ya a little more porridge and then helped Mu Ya take a comfortable bath. After playing for a while, Mu Ya crawled into Zhang Xiao's embrace and fell asleep, she didn't even eat milk powder.
After placing the sleeping Mu Ya on the bed, he helped her cover herself with the blanket and pulled up the curtains to the room's windows, allowing Zhang Xiao to exit Mu Ya's room slowly.
Mu Chen stood at the door and did not enter the room, but he had seen how Zhang Xiao treated his daughter.
When he saw Mu Chen, Zhang Xiao asked lightly: "Mr. Mou, Mu Ya is already asleep, can I get off work now?"
Zhang Xiao felt that Mu Chen had an illusion that he wanted to flay her skin. She blinked her eyes and asked: "Mr. Mou, is there anything else?"
"Aren't you hungry?"
Mu Chen said in a cold tone.
Everyone ate dinner, except for her.
Zhang Xiao laughed. Mu Chen winked and her smile was always very warm, just like the spring wind in the third month. It was warm and intoxicating. I promised Shao Liang that we would gather at Qing Yuan Restaurant at eight in the evening. We would meet the few Old classmate s for a meal."
Mu Chen pursed his lips and did not say a word.
He almost forgot she had an appointment tonight.
That Gao Shao Liang had a good impression of her, using some student gathering to get close to her.
When he thought about Gao Shao Liang, Mu Chen immediately thought that Gao Shao Liang had pretended to be serious and hugged him.
"Mr. Mou, it's getting late. I'll go first." Zhang Xiao looked at the time and saw that she was almost late, so she passed Mu Chen and hurried downstairs.
Mu Chen turned around and looked at her leaving figure. He heard her words, but she wasn't talking to him.
Mu Chen told himself that no matter where she went, or who he wanted to eat with, it would all be her business, and it had nothing to do with him. He could no longer keep an eye on her. What he needed to do was keep his distance from her.
Mu Chen turned and returned to his room.
Unfortunately, it was still too early. Normally, he would only return home late at night and would only rest during the night. It was only around seven in the evening, so he could not sleep at all and had to lie down to rest.
Looking at the photos of Ning Tong in the house, Mu Chen took the photo of him and Ning Tong getting married in the past. Mu Chen half laid on the bed staring at the picture of the husband and wife. The him in the picture was extremely happy, Ning Tong was extremely beautiful, and both of their faces were brimming with happiness. They had only been married for less than two and a half years, but Ning Tong had already decided to leave him.
It was a promise that they would never part from each other for the rest of their lives, and it was also a promise that they would spend the rest of their lives together.
In the end, she had lied to him.
She was separated from him.
Nor did she leave him alone with their daughter.
"Tong Tong."
Mu Chen muttered, his long fingers caressing Ning Tong's face, his heart clenched tightly.
He couldn't forget Ning Tong, and now he was even more attracted to his ...
"Tong Tong, if only you were still alive. If only you were still alive, everything would have changed." Mu Chen mumbled in pain as his body slid down and laid on the bed. He hugged the photo to his chest and looked up at the ceiling, looking a little dazed.
As he just lied there, thinking about Ning Tong, Mu Chen passed through the next second, all the way until midnight. He heaved a long sigh, sat up from the bed, and hung the photo back to its original position. He looked at Ning Tong again with a deep gaze, and his eyes turned a little red. It was useless for him to think of Ning Tong, since he had already been buried underground for a long time.
Seeing that it was already past eleven in the night, Zhang Xiao should have returned to her apartment by now, right? She got Yi Xiu Jie to send her to a gathering with her classmates. After the gathering, would she go back by herself or Gao Shao Liang would send her there?
Presumably, Gao Shao Liang was the one to give it to her.
Gao Shao Liang's goal was to close the distance between them, how could he be willing to miss such a good opportunity.
Who sent her home and what did he have to do with money?
Why was he still thinking about her! He had said not to think about her anymore. Whatever she did or made friends had nothing to do with him.
Mu Chen was so angry that his brain would involuntarily think of Zhang Xiao. He threw himself onto the big bed, pulled up the blanket to cover himself, and closed his eyes, forcing himself to sleep.
A moment later, feeling that he could not sleep on his back, he lay on his left side, and within two minutes he was on his right side again. Two minutes later, he felt that he was still more comfortable on his back, so he lay on his back again. But after a while, he began to move to the left, and then to the right.
In the past, he would be able to fall asleep very quickly. After all, he was too busy during the day and too tired. Tonight, he was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep no matter how hard he tried.
It had to be because he had slept so well in the afternoon that he couldn't sleep at the moment.
Mu Chen who had been tossing and turning for an hour now, unable to make himself fall asleep, suddenly sat up, lifted the blanket and got off the bed.
After a few minutes, he dressed and left the room.
Very quickly, the sound of a car could be heard in the courtyard. Mu Chen did not care that it was already late at night, he drove the car out by himself.
