Chapter 46
After leaving for only a few short months, when he returned to Mu’s house again, everything in front of him became somewhat unfamiliar.
Thinking of the flower gallery, swimming pool, small garden, fallen leaves path in the Zhou family’s old house, and then look at the deadly brick-and-tile house in front of you. Mu Xueyi suddenly felt that this place could no longer be regarded as her “home”.
The fake cry just now had drained her lacrimal glands, but she couldn’t help it, and the drama to be played in the future was still long.
Entering the living room, Mu Guocheng was sitting on the sofa watching financial news.
Mu Xueyi sucked her nose, and her tears began to fall again, because she has been a very weak person for more than 20 years, so no one knows how to pretend to be weak better than her.
Shrugging his shoulders, he lowered his head, making the corners of his eyes look foggy and folded at the touch of a button.
Mu Guocheng glanced at her with a satisfied smile on his face, and called the housekeeper: “Send Second Miss upstairs.”
The housekeeper agreed and ran over to take Mu Xueyi from the driver.
“Wait,” Mu Guocheng raised his hand towards Mu Xueyi and hooked his four fingers, “Give me the phone.”
Mu Xueyi lowered her eyebrows and obediently took out her mobile phone from her pocket and handed it over.
Mu Guocheng winked at a maid next to him and said, “Search your body.”
The maid stepped forward and carefully searched all of Mu Xueyi’s pockets and satchels to confirm that there was indeed no other means of communication.
After Mu Guocheng confirmed, he took out a new mobile phone and handed it to Mu Xueyi, “In order to prevent you from contacting Zhou Zhenyue again, use this mobile phone in the future. I am not afraid to tell you directly, this mobile phone can monitor Your call records, you can do it yourself.”
Mu Guocheng raised his chin towards the housekeeper: “Take care of the second lady, without my permission, she will not be able to take a single step out of the door of Mu’s house.” Mu Xueyi: “…Occasionally go to the yard to get some air, right?”
Mu Guocheng picked up the newspaper, “Yes. But you should also know that there are servants watering flowers everywhere in the yard, so don’t play tricks.”
Mu Xueyi showed a pale smile: “Do I look like someone who can play tricks?”
Mu Ruqing walked over to Mu Guocheng with her arms in her arms and sat down beside Mu Guocheng, crossed Erlang’s legs, and glanced at Mu Xueyi contemptuously, “You want to play, do you have the ability?”
“…Of course not.” Mu Xueyi nodded towards the two people on the sofa, “Dad, sister, I’m back home.”
Mu Guocheng turned over a page of the newspaper without raising his eyes, “Professor Shen will visit you tomorrow, get ready.”
Mu Xueyi bowed her head obediently: “Okay.”.
Zhong Wan heard about the past two days, and it happened that she was also at Mu’s house, so she sneaked into Mu Xueyi’s room while Mu Ruqing was out. Xueyi must be very sad at this moment. As Xueyi’s only friend in the Mu family, she must come and see.
Zhong Wan gently knocked on the door, and there was a distant sound of “enter”, and she opened the door and went in.
As soon as she entered the door, she knew why the “enter” just now seemed so far away.
Mu Xueyi did not sit on the sofa near the door, but sat by the bay window. She was lying on the windowsill, the window was open, and she stretched out half of her body to look out.
Zhong Wan asked curiously, “Xueyi, what are you looking at?”
“Ah?” Mu Xueyi retracted her head and saw Zhong Wan, her expression relaxed, “Wan Wan, it’s you.”
Zhong Wan also sat slanted on the bay window and followed Mu Xueyi’s line of sight just now, “What were you looking at just now?”
Mu Xueyi: “Nothing, just look at the sky.”
“You still have the mind to look at the sky,” Zhong Wan sighed, “I heard Mu Ruqing talk about the past two days, but she didn’t tell me in detail, only that your father used some means to threaten you to go home and prepare Married to the Shen family. Just now I heard from Mu Ruqing and your father that when you came back from the hospital, Mr. Zhou was so angry that he vomited blood, and he also said that the Zhou family might be in a state of collapse with Zhou Zhenyue recently…”
Mu Xueyi raised her eyebrows: “Did she say that?”
Zhong Wan looked at Mu Xueyi’s half-smile expression, full of question marks: “How can you still laugh?”
Mu Xueyi’s expression naturally changed from a half-smile to a worried: “…Maybe it’s confused, and the facial nerves are disordered.”
Zhong Wan was a little worried: “Did the separation from President Zhou stimulate you? If it really doesn’t work, you have to find a way to see a psychiatrist.”
Mu Xueyi nodded meekly: “Thank you, if the situation is really bad, I will see a doctor.”
Zhong Wan nodded: “If you can’t find a suitable one, let me know. I know a few very good doctors. They are very nice and it’s very comfortable to communicate with…”
Mu Xueyi frowned and said in a serious tone, “Are you seeing a psychiatrist?”
The air instantly fell silent.
After a long while, Zhong Wan smiled and sighed: “Actually, I didn’t take the initiative to look for it. I… living with Mu Ruqing was too depressing, always thinking… always thinking about something bad, she knew that I was not happy, so she gave I found a few psychiatrists.”
Mu Xueyi frowned, “You mean, she would rather let you see a doctor than let you go?”
Zhong Wan smiled bitterly: “I’ve been by her side for more than 20 years since I was a child, how could she let me go?… I heard someone say some time ago that she was planning to marry the boss of another large company. I thought she was going to get married, so she could always let me go. I didn’t expect her to tell me that behind this kind of corporate marriage, both parties have their own ways, and she can still keep me outside, but I… how can I I can be the object of an extramarital affair for her against my own conscience…”
Mu Xueyi pondered for a long time and asked earnestly, “If you have a chance to leave her, are you really willing to leave?”
Zhong Wan replied without hesitation, “Of course I would.”
Mu Xueyi: “Maybe… I can help you.”
Zhong Wan looked into Mu Xueyi’s eyes. According to their experience of getting along for many years, she could see from Mu Xueyi’s eyes that Mu Xueyi was not joking with her.
Her eyes were red, “But Xueyi, how can you fight against your sister?”
Mu Xueyi drooped her eyes and turned to look out the window: “You don’t need to worry about the rest. That is, you… may have to help me a few times.”
Zhong Wan: “Just say it.”
The light outside the window dimmed at some point, and a cold wind began to blow. The maple tree directly opposite shed its last dead leaves, whirling in the cold air with the wind.
It is going to rain.
Same as the weather forecast.
Mu Xueyi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Zhong Wan: “Let’s go for a walk in the yard.”.
In the evening, there was another heavy rain in Anyang.
The weather reached the lowest temperature this winter in an instant, and there was no heating in the southern cities. Walking around outside made everyone’s hands tremble.
Unfortunately, when the heavy rain suddenly started, Mu Xueyi was in a wheelchair and was pushed by Zhong Wan to hang out in the yard.
After the rain, Mu Xueyi got a lot of rain because the wheelchair was inconvenient to move. The wounds all over his body were soaked from the rain, including the large wound on his forehead that was sealed with three needles. Coupled with the cold wind, her wound began to deteriorate and become inflamed, and the inflamed wound on her forehead was even more implicated in the symptoms of fever. Mu Guocheng visited Mu Xueyi’s room and saw that her lips were so pale that they lost their blood, and he knew that there was no way to delay this, so he called a doctor to come to the house to give her an anti-inflammatory injection.
The doctor is an old doctor who has taken care of the Mu family for many years, surnamed Jiang. He can also be regarded as watching the Mu sisters grow up. Because Mu Ruqing was arrogant when she was a child, and Mu Xueyi knew how to please her elders, Old Doctor Jiang always preferred Mu Xueyi in her heart.
Hearing that Mu Xueyi was ill, Dr. Jiang immediately took the medicine box and brought his assistant to Mu’s house.
Mu Guocheng naturally didn’t have time to worry about these trivial matters. When Old Doctor Jiang and his assistant entered the door, he didn’t even stay in the upstairs room.
After Dr. Jiang and his assistant entered Mu Xueyi’s room, they closed the door and locked it.
Mu Xueyi sat up weakly against the edge of the bed, her voice was hoarse: “Uncle Jiang, long time no see, sorry to bother you…”
Dr. Jiang put down the medicine box, began to prepare needles, and smiled kindly: “It’s okay, you’re welcome to me.”
The assistant he brought took off the rain-stained coat, the peaked cap, and the mask.
Under the light, a familiar face appeared.
It’s only been a day since we were apart, and I can see that she still misses her so much.
Mu Xueyi raised her hand to her and whispered, “Ayue.”
Zhou Zhenyue went to the bed and sat down, stretched out her hand to check the temperature of Mu Xueyi’s forehead, her brows immediately became pimples, “Are you really drenched? I thought you would still act like yesterday, just acting.”
Mu Xueyi grabbed Zhou Zhenyue’s hand, her skin was scalding hot, and the coldness in Zhou Zhenyue’s palm was only blown from the rain.
“You don’t know, my dad can’t be fooled… I said, he will definitely confiscate my mobile phone, monitor all my online social accounts and dial records of my new mobile phone, cough… I can only contact you in this way. , I would also like to thank Uncle Jiang for his help…cough, cough…Uncle Jiang?”
Doctor Jiang agreed.
Mu Xueyi pointed to Zhou Zhenyue and introduced him: “This is me…my friend, you call her…”
Zhou Zhenyue replied, “Just call Xiao Zhou.”
Doctor Jiang: “Okay.”
Zhou Zhenyue held Mu Xueyi’s hand tightly, and suddenly said again: “I’m not her friend.”
Mu Xueyi looked at her blankly.
Zhou Zhenyue raised her eyes, her tone was gentle but firm, “I am the person she will marry in the future.”
Mu Xueyi stared at Zhou Zhenyue’s eyes and pursed her lower lip.
She faked the look in her eyes for a whole day, and at this moment, her eyes softened briefly.
Old Doctor Jiang said with a smile: “Okay, it’s okay, whether it’s a friend or someone you want to marry, as long as it’s someone Xiao Xueyi likes. If you have anything else to help in the future, feel free to come to me.”
Zhou Zhenyue: “Thank you.”
Mu Xueyi: “Thank you.”
Mu Xueyi secretly glanced at Zhou Zhenyue again, and asked in a low voice, “Ayue, you just said, you are my future…”
Zhou Zhenyue lowered her eyes and placed her hand lightly on the gauze wrapped around Mu Xueyi’s right ankle, “Take care of your injury, and pay more attention to your ankle tendons when doing what you want. If you can recover well, you can walk in the future. If you don’t lame, I will consider marrying you.”
Mu Xueyi smiled and said softly, “Ayue has no conscience. Even if I become lame in the future, isn’t it to protect you?”
Zhou Zhenyue did not go back to the past with a joke as usual.
She just kept her head down.
After a long while, the end of his eyes began to turn red, and a thin layer of tears filled the bottom of his eyes.
When Mu Xueyi saw it, the smile on her face immediately disappeared, and she held Zhou Zhenyue’s hand.
“Ayue? I’m joking with you, how could you have no conscience? I’m fine, really, I promise, I won’t be a little lame in the future. Ayue? Don’t cry, Ayue?”
Dr. Jiang put a needle in Mu Xueyi, raised his eyes and glanced at the two of them, and the corner of his mouth was smiling in the gray beard.
Zhou Zhenyue glanced elsewhere, coughed twice, to hide her gaffe.
She took out a new mobile phone from her pocket, put it by Mu Xueyi’s hand, and opened the topic: “…this is a new mobile phone that you told Xiao Ai to buy, and a card with Xiao Ai’s ID number. , there is a remote monitoring program installed in it, if someone quietly installs anything else in this phone, I can see it over there. You hide it and use it with care. ”
“it is good.”
Mu Xueyi put away her phone and was about to say something when she suddenly heard footsteps coming from the corridor outside.
According to her understanding of the family for many years, she immediately judged that it was Mu Ruqing’s footsteps.
…
Mu Ruqing was walking towards her room.
