Chapter 53

The night is dark and the wind is high.

Zhong Wan got into the low-key black car parked at Changxing Street. In the driver’s seat, Xiao Ai, who was still wearing sunglasses at night, was sneaking around, and Zhou Zhenyue was sitting in the back row. When she got into the car, she happened to meet Zhou Zhenyue.

Zhong Wan was holding a simple bag, because she didn’t dare to pack it blatantly, so she only brought necessities such as a mobile phone, which was less than what she usually brings to work.

“It’s on time,” Zhou Zhenyue raised her wrist and glanced at her watch, “Let’s drive.”

Zhong Wan held the bag tightly in her arms, “Xueyi told me about Mr. Zhou just now, I still don’t quite believe that you will come to see me in person, I thought you would at most ask Sister Ai to deliver it…”

Xiao Ai smiled and said, “That star is because Second Miss knows our President Zhou too well. She knows that when you star her good friend, President Zhou will definitely come and give it to her in person.”

The car has already entered the traffic flow bound for the airport. Zhou Zhenyue looked at the rearview mirror for a while, and after confirming that there were no following vehicles, she looked at Zhong Wan with a faint smile:

“She told you about me? What did she say about me?”

“I didn’t say anything,” Zhong Wan replied truthfully, “It seems that I mentioned it and wanted to ask me to tell you something, but Xing said ‘Forget it’ later, and I don’t know what Xue Yixing meant.”

never mind?

She clearly wanted to say something to herself. Under what circumstances would she stop talking like this?

Zhou Zhenyue frowned and asked Zhong Wan, “How does she look today? Is she in good condition?”

Zhong Wan: “I can’t say whether it’s good or bad. When I went downstairs for the first time, she was sitting by the dining table, and there was only a bamboo shoot on the plate. The second time I went downstairs with something, she also Xing sat alone, the food on the table didn’t move, and the bamboo shoot didn’t move.”

The neon lights flashing outside the window flashed across Zhou Zhenyue’s eyes.

She didn’t let go of her brows, her thumb curled up, and she tightly squeezed the jade ring on her index finger.

After taking Zhong Wan to the airport and watching her get on the plane, it was already 12:30 in the middle of the night.

Xiao Ai yawned and started the engine, ready to take Zhou Zhenyue back to the old house. Zhou Zhenyue said, “No hurry, take me to the snack street next to you first.”

Xiao Ai was a little surprised, but since Zhou Zhenyue said so, she obediently drove to the snack street.

At the snack street, Zhou Zhenyue picked and picked and bought a bowl of ice noodles, a cage of meat buns, and a ravioli. Bundled and strung on a pair of chopsticks, like a pole to pick up all the food.

After packing up and returning to the car, she said to Xiao Ai, “Go to Mu’s house.”

After half an hour.

The car was parked on a dark path outside the wall of Mu’s backyard.

Xiao Ai glanced inside, puzzled: “Mr. Zhou, what are you doing here? Mu Guocheng can’t possibly let you in.”

Zhou Zhenyue took off the gray coat outside and the beige suit jacket. After there was only one shirt left on her body, she unbuttoned her cuffs and rolled up her sleeves.

“Have you seen Qing Gong, Xiao Ai?”

Zhou Zhenyue asked jokingly. As he asked, he took off the tie from his collar, wrapped it around his wrist a few times and knotted it, took out the sumptuous supper he had just packed, and moved his wrist.

Xiao Ai was stunned: “You, you, don’t you want to turn over? Are you not afraid of surveillance?”

“I investigated it earlier, only the main entrance has it.”

Zhou Zhenyue bit the tight supper in her mouth, stared at a big tree next to her, and with a light jump, she climbed the shortest thick branch.

The forearm exposed in the air stretched tight and smooth muscle lines, and a thin blue blood vessel floated on the surface of the fair skin because of too much force.

In just a blink of an eye, she climbed up the wall of the Mu family with the help of the big tree in three or two strokes.

Xiao Ai was stunned. She had seen Zhou Zhenyue sitting in the conference room unsmilingly, and Zhou Zhenyue, who was sitting upright in front of the old man and didn’t dare to bend her waist, but she had never seen such agility in climbing a tree. The week pillow month.

Zhou Zhenyue squatted on the wall, took the supper from her mouth, and instructed, “Wait for me here.”

Xiao Ai hurriedly asked, “How long will you be going?”

Zhou Zhenyue: “Maybe an hour or two, maybe…” She paused, “I can’t tell.”

She turned her eyes to the dark villa, and guessed which window she should open to enter Mu Xueyi’s room according to the memory of the last time she followed Old Doctor Jiang in.

Mu Xueyi was served and washed, her hair was wet, wrapped in a bathrobe that was too loose for her, and sat at the desk.

There was a book on the table, she was holding a ballpoint pen, her eyelashes were drooping.

I want to write a few love letters, like before, to Ayue.

But the two lines of words written on Xing’s notebook were severely scratched, each word was unrecognizable, and the right side of the paper was poked with a few holes by the tip of the pen.

It seemed that no matter how she phrased it, she couldn’t write the complicated but simple words as before.

Mu Xueyi stared at the pen.

half an hour.

The corners of the eyes began to sour.

She put down the pen and was about to close the book when she suddenly heard the sound of someone being pulled open from the window behind her, and then a person jumped off the windowsill and fell to the ground.

Mu Xueyi was startled and turned around immediately, just as she was about to call someone, she caught sight of Zhou Zhenyue whose hair and shirt were ruffled by the wind.

It’s like a hallucination.

Zhou Zhenyue carried a large bag of plastic bags she didn’t know what to do, and walked over slowly, her chest undulating briefly because of the vigorous exercise just now, and the sweat from her forehead flowed down her temples.

“Come.”

She raised the plastic bag in her hand and smiled at Mu Xueyi, “Please have a late night snack.”

Mu Xueyi stared blankly at the person in front of her. The heart in her chest, which was as silent as stagnant water in the Mu family, suddenly began to beat fast and intensely.

Her chin trembled slightly, and the tears in her eyes deepened.

“Ah…” The words also stuttered, “Ah…yue…”

Street lights flickered.

The sparrow sleeping in the bush rose and fell.

The Mu family villa, shrouded in darkness, turned off the lights in the last two windows.

The world is being paused at this time as people go to sleep one after another.

The night wind pierced through the curtains.

Mu Xueyi turned off the headlights in the room, only turned on a small light, and placed a small table in the middle of the bay window.

The table was filled with hot snacks. There are Xiaolong Pork Buns with dipping sauces, shrimp wontons with cilantro and chopped green onions, and a bowl of ice powder that has melted from being left with the first two for too long.

Two people leaned against the table, one sat on the right side of the small table, and the other sat on the left side of the small table.

Zhou Zhenyue unbuttoned the top two buttons of her shirt, and then unbuttoned the tie that was wrapped around her wrist several times. Her cheekbones were still slightly flushed after exercising.

“I can’t do it now, I sweat so much after climbing a two-story water pipe.” She folded her tie, put it aside, took the chopsticks and handed it to Mu Xueyi. Ke Xing ran five laps without breathing.”

Mu Xueyi took the chopsticks, and a heavy blanket was draped over her thin shoulders. Like a fragile dry branch covered with too much snow, ready to break at any moment.

She smiled and said, “Ayue, why have you learned to brag?”

Zhou Zhenyue also smiled, “Indeed, Xing is bragging. After running five laps, Xing will definitely be out of breath.”

Mu Xue’s clothespinned a xiaolongbao, smeared it with chili oil, and ate it in one bite, filling her mouth with bulging.

It’s strange that she can’t swallow the most exquisite food made by the Mu family, but such a simple and simple xiao long bao can be eaten so deliciously.

After eating Xiaolongbao, she drank wonton soup and half a bowl of brown sugar ice powder.

“Don’t worry about Zhong Wan, I watched her get on the plane with my own eyes, and someone from the branch in London was also sent to pick it up.” Zhou Zhenyue also took a pair of chopsticks to help Mu Xue, who was inconvenient, to peg food. , “You can do your business here with peace of mind. I watch everything outside the Mu family, and nothing can go wrong.”

Mu Xueyi snorted, and after chewing silently, she muttered:

“…Nice to have you.”

Exactly the same as what was said at the auction.

But Zhou Zhenyue heard the unusual tone in her words, leaned forward slightly, and asked seriously, “What’s wrong?”

“I…” Mu Xueyi wanted to express the stagnation in her heart, but when she opened her mouth, she realized that she herself didn’t know what her stagnation was.

Moaning for a long time, she sniffed and smiled covertly: “I’m only a star… I can’t seem to remember how I laughed before.”

Zhou Zhenyue curled the corners of her lips, “Really?”

Mu Xueyi stirred the ice powder in the bowl, joking like Xingxing, “Of course Xingxing is fake, I’m teasing you.”

Zhou Zhenyue suddenly raised her right hand, stretched out a forefinger, gently probed forward, and poked the corner of Mu Xueyi’s lips.

Immediately, his left hand was raised, and he also stretched out an index finger and poked the other side of Mu Xueyi’s lips.

The two hands gently pushed upwards and slowly, pulling little by little, until they pushed out a cute and silly arc.

“Keep it up.”

Zhou Zhenyue released her hand, immediately took out her mobile phone, took a photo of Mu Xueyi, and turned it over to show it to the other party.

“Look, it’s like a star.”

Mu Xueyi looked at the unfamiliar self in the photo, slightly startled.

Such a familiar face…

So… the distant look…

Unconsciously, a tear rolled down the corner of his eye for no reason.

Before she realized that she was crying, she showed a brighter smile, just like every time she smiled happily at Zhou Zhenyue before.

“I was smiling so beautifully?”

Zhou Zhenyue smiled and nodded, “Of course, Xue Yi is the most beautiful in the world when she smiles.”

In the dim light and in the dark background, Zhou Zhenyue sat opposite her, her brows and eyes as gentle as a Wasedian bent by the wind. Each eyelash is plated with a soft and warm color.

Her body is like a star.

Scattered on the tips of his hair, fell between the ears and neck, and condensed at the bottom of the pupil.

Mu Xueyi looked at it in a daze, and unconsciously raised her hand and stretched it towards Zhou Zhenyue.

Zhou Zhenyue caught Mu Xueyi’s outstretched hand and held it tightly in the palm of her hand.

Holding it hard, she covered every inch of the cold skin on the back of her hand with its own temperature.

Mu Xueyi chuckled with tears in her eyes.

“Ayue, hug me.”

Zhou Zhenyue got up accommodatingly, went around the small table, and sat next to Mu Xueyi, carefully avoiding her injuries, hugging her waist, and gently hugging her into her arms.

Such a soft embrace.

After a long time, Mu Xueyi half-dazed and said, “…I want to sleep.”

Zhou Zhenyue: “Don’t eat?”

Mu Xueyi: “Well.”

Yu Xingzhou and pillowyue picked her up, first went to the bathroom to help her brush her teeth and wipe her face, then gently and cautiously carried her to the bed, placing a pillow under her head. He helped her to position her limbs, and when she reached her right hand, that hand suddenly came together and grabbed her fingers.

“Ayue, do you mind that half of my body is now disabled?” Mu Xueyi asked softly.

Zhou Zhenyue frowned: “What do you say, why would I mind.”

Mu Xueyi smiled.

“Then Ah Yue, can you ask for me tonight?”
