The old residence of the Mu family.
Before leaving the club, Musijue drank a lot of wine. He forgot how he came back. The warm light was projected on the ancient bricks, inadvertently stretching his shadow.
He put one hand against the door to support himself. His hair and clothes were a little messy. His expression, numbed by alcohol and fireworks, was no longer as cold and calm as before, and his eyes even showed a bit of laxity.
Later, someone said that Musijue had lived for more than thirty years, but these few minutes were the only time he was defenseless, which was the best time to assassinate him.
Of course, Musijue did not give anyone a chance to seize this opportunity.
He stretched out his hand and slapped it heavily on the heavy wooden door: "Aunt Zhou..."
Aunt Zhou had fallen asleep a long time ago, but Mu Sijue only shouted once, and she immediately woke up from her dream. She hurriedly got up and ran out to open the door. Unexpectedly, as soon as the door was opened, Mu Sijue fell on her. .
Mu Sijue is no longer the little boy he was more than ten years ago. Now that he is over 185cm tall, he is definitely a heavyweight burden for Aunt Zhou.
Aunt Zhou said "Ouch" and reluctantly supported Mu Sijue while closing the door and patted his back: "Sijue?"
"..." Mu Sijue could hear Aunt Zhou's voice, but he didn't make a sound. He felt very tired, so he closed his eyes naturally.
Aunt Zhou knew Mu Sijue so well that she didn't say anything more and helped him across the yard back to his room.
Aunt Zhou remembers clearly that the last time Mu Sijue came back in this state was because of Xu Youning.
This time, if she guessed correctly, it was still because of Xu Youning.
After returning to the room, Aunt Zhou did not turn on the big light, but just turned on a desk lamp casually, asked Mu Sijue to sit on the sofa, squatted in front of him and asked softly: "Are you hungry?"
Mu Sijue opened his eyes and looked at Aunt Zhou, and after a while he said, "I don't know."
Aunt Zhou knew that Mu Sijue's answer was wrong.
She held Mu Sijue's hand: "Tell Aunt Zhou, what happened?"
“…”
“…”
"She is an undercover agent sent by others. I have known it for a long time." After a long time, Mu Sijue spoke up. He leaned on the corner of the sofa and smiled to himself, "I once thought that I would never reveal her secret."
Yes, he once thought about sending Kang Ruicheng to prison and finding a way to completely cut off the contact between Kang Ruicheng and Xu Youning.
In this way, Xu Youning will never be able to go back, and maybe she will be forced to choose to stay.
As long as she stays and no longer thinks about Kang Ruicheng, he can give her a chance to let the secret that she is Kang Ruicheng's undercover rot in her heart forever.
However, someone just played a small trick, and Xu Youning lost control. She regarded him as the enemy who killed her grandmother, and wanted him to pay for it at all costs.
Perhaps, in Xu Youning's heart, the three words "Mu Sijue" are equivalent to "mission".
He was the task given to her by Kangrui City. Everything she did to him was just to complete the task and return to Kangrui City.
…
It took Aunt Zhou a while to understand what happened, and sighed: "Now, what are you going to do?"
"I have locked her up," Musijue said. "According to the rules, I should let her disappear from this world silently."
"...Xiao Qi, are you willing?" After a brief hesitation, Aunt Zhou suddenly asked.
"..." Mu Sijue seemed to be hit by something suddenly. He was stunned on the sofa in silence, but within half a second, his eyes darkened and became unfathomable.
"You couldn't bear to part with him at all. Otherwise, you wouldn't hesitate." Mu Sijue clearly didn't answer, but Aunt Zhou seemed to have heard his answer and spoke it in a declarative tone.
Mu Sijue stood up and walked to the window, with a touch of sarcasm in his tone: "Aunt Zhou, she is just a somewhat special woman. I admit that she is irreplaceable, but... there is nothing to be reluctant to part with. She threatens the entire Mu family. interests, I know how to choose.”
Aunt Zhou stared at Mu Sijue's back through the dim light.
She knew that Mu Sijue's expression at this moment was definitely not in line with his tone, but she still did not persuade her, and just sighed: "I still say the same thing, some people only appear once in a lifetime, don't make a decision that you will regret. Sijue, Sometimes, you might just have to try to express your feelings."
After saying that, Aunt Zhou left the room and closed the door for Mu Sijue.
There was only a desk lamp on in the room, and as soon as the door was closed, no light from the outside came in, and the room was suddenly filled with darkness again.
Musijue took out a cigarette and lighter from the drawer of the bedside table.
He lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and let the smoke slowly circle in his lungs, savoring the smoky feeling, which briefly paralyzed the brain.
Express your feelings
Maybe Aunt Zhou is right - Xu Youning has been lying to her, but how could he tell the truth to Xu Youning
That night, Musijue stayed up all night. When he went downstairs early the next day, he found two sets of bowls and chopsticks on the dining table.
Aunt Zhou brought out the steamed buns and explained, as if she had seen through his doubts, "A Guang called and said he was coming over."
As soon as Mu Sijue sat down, Aguang ran in from the yard and greeted him with a smile: "Good morning, seventh brother."
Musjue's face was expressionless, and he nodded his chin towards the seat opposite him: "Sit."
"Okay." Aguang sat down naturally and mentioned it naturally, "By the way, I didn't find you yesterday, so I couldn't tell you that I have locked Sister Youning... er, Xu Youning, on the second underground floor. "
Musijue said calmly: "Watch her carefully, she is more powerful than you think."
"Don't worry." Aguang waved his hand, looking unstressed, "She said she went to find you yesterday just to die."
Mu Sijue stopped moving his hands, raised his head, and stared at Aguang with a heavy gaze: "Tell me more details."
Aguang said "Oh" and said solemnly with an understatement: "Xu Youning said that her grandmother is gone, and she has no meaning in living in this world except carrying guilt. But before her grandmother left, she hoped Live well, that's why she went to the club to look for you yesterday. She knew that if she fell into your hands, there would be only death."
Mu Sijue smiled coldly: "Xu Youning wants to use my hand to free himself?"
A Guang nodded: "That's pretty much what it means, well, it means...she wants to use you!"
"She's dreaming!"
Mu Sijue suddenly stood up and left.
Aunt Zhou came out with the hot soy milk. Seeing that Mu Sijue hadn't even taken a few bites of his breakfast, she hurriedly called out: "Xiao Qi". As soon as she finished speaking, A Guang held her down.
Aguang smiled and said, "Aunt Zhou, you don't have to call me. Brother Qi has gone to see Sister Youning."
Aunt Zhou felt a little strange: "He just told me yesterday that Xu Youning would be dealt with according to the rules. I was still worried..."
"You don't have to worry now!" Aguang smiled with a sense of accomplishment, "I have been thinking about this method all night, and now, Brother Seven promises not to deal with Sister Youning!"
Aunt Zhou was confused: "What did you do?"
"Tell Brother Qi that Sister Youning came to him just to seek death!" Aguang said, "You know Brother Qi's character best. When he makes a decision, no one can interfere. But what if his decision happens to be what others want? If you want it, he will definitely not agree! Now that he knows that Sister Youning wants to die, he will definitely not let Sister Youning die! "
After saying that, Aguang clenched his fist with determination.
Aunt Zhou thought for a while: "I hope you can save the country through curves. What I'm worried about... is that You Ning's child is really bent on death."
In fact, Aunt Zhou was not the only one who was worried about this, but also Mu Sijue.
Club No. 1.
The sharp and urgent braking cut through the morning tranquility. Musijue got out of the car and walked into the club without even closing the car door, going straight to the second underground floor.
After getting out of the elevator, his hurried footsteps stopped in front of the door of the last room. Before opening the door, he hesitated.
Originally, he thought Xu Youning would survive no matter what, but now, Aguang told Xu Youning that he wanted to die.
There are so many unsettled accounts between them, how dare she die
Thinking of this, Musijue scanned his palm prints and pushed open the door.
Xu Youning curled up on the bed.
The bed here is very small, only about one meter. Xu Youning curled up in a ball on such a small bed, hugging himself with both hands, a defensive and self-protective posture, and the whole person looked like a helpless stray animal.
Her cervical spine was extremely curved, her head was buried deeply in the pillow, and there were clear tear stains on the pillow.
She may have to cry for a long time before she can accept the death of Grandma Xu.
Musijue's heart was stabbed, but he quickly ignored the feeling and said coldly: "Xu Youning."
Xu Youning is dreaming.
In the dream, she saw her grandmother.
Grandma was standing in a very dark place, but strangely, she could see her very clearly.
Grandma also looked at her with a smile: "You Ning, you have to live well."
Tears burst into her eyes without warning: "Grandma, I miss you."
"Grandma hasn't left, so you don't need to miss grandma too much." Grandma said, "My child, grandma just stayed with you in a different way. You are still young and can experience many kinds of life. Don't give up and live well."
She shook her head and begged with tears in her eyes: "Grandma, I'm sorry, please take me away, don't leave me, I will never lie to you again..."
"Silly boy." Grandma smiled helplessly, but her eyes were full of love. "How could Grandma take you away? You should have your own life. Grandma doesn't blame you. Although you have been willful since you were a child, you have always listened to me. If so, I believe you have a reason for your choice. Grandma supports you. Don’t blame yourself anymore. Grandma doesn’t want to see you like this."
"..." Xu Youning could do nothing but cry.
At this time, grandma suddenly smiled and waved towards her: "You Ning, grandma is really leaving."
"No, grandma..." she begged, "grandma, don't go..."
No matter how much she begged, the darkness still spread over and overwhelmed her grandmother. When she was at her most desperate, she suddenly heard the voice of Musjue in her ears:
"Xu Youning." A cold voice, full of anger and murderous intent.
Xu Youning opened his eyes suddenly... (To be continued)
