Shi Xiaonian was confused by his action.
Why is he closing the door
"Xiao Nian, are you being too silly? What do you want to do? Live in this house and climb from the balcony to the next door to eavesdrop? Are you afraid of falling to death?" Mu Qianchu frowned and looked at her nervously. , with blame, "This is the 8th floor."
Did she think it was just playing house, not taking her own life seriously
Shi Xiaonian looked at him blankly, "You already know."
Sure enough, he saw her following her.
"yes."
Mu Qianchu's breathing was a little unsteady, and he looked at her deeply, fearing that if he didn't look at her, she would disappear from his sight, and then climbed to the balcony on the 8th floor.
"What do you want."
Shi Xiaonian stood back frustrated, lowered his eyes, and said in a broken voice, "Yes, I am following Shi Di. Are you calling the police or preparing something else?"
Call the police.
I guess Gong Ou was going to be furious when he entered the police station to get her. Shi Xiaonian could imagine the scene. Gong Ou would twist her ears and scold her while trying to keep her out.
Hearing this, Mu Qianchu's face flashed with sadness, and he smiled bitterly, "Why do you think I want to call the police?"
In her eyes, could he just not tolerate her
Shi Xiaonian looked at him in confusion.
If he doesn't call the police, will he let her go
"If I want to call the police, why should I knock on the door and come in? I can just wait for you to crawl over and catch me." Mu Qianchu said, his voice a little bitter.
When he went out, he noticed that she was following Shi Di's car, so he followed her closely.
He didn't know what she was going to do, but was worried something would happen to her.
Seeing her observing with a telescope and moving into the room next to Shi Di, he vaguely guessed what she would do. She used to be so courageous as a girl, she would climb trees, windows, and walls.
But this is the 8th floor, how dare he let her go.
“…”
When Shi Xiaonian listened to his words, he was very stunned.
What if he really doesn't take advantage of her? Don't you call the police to arrest her
"Can I sit down?" Mu Qianchu asked.
Shi Xiaonian nodded, "Sit down."
A polite and distant tone.
Mu Qianchu sat down on the sofa, leaned forward slightly, reached out and pressed his painful forehead, with a look of loneliness between his eyebrows.
Time passed by, and both of them were silent.
Shi Xiaonian leaned against the wall and finally couldn't help but break the deathly silence, "Aren't you curious why I followed Shi Di?"
From the moment he appeared until he sat here, he never asked her why.
Hearing this, Mu Qianchu sat up straight, looked straight at her face with a pair of narrow and feminine eyes, and smiled lightly, "You always have your reasons for doing things. If you want to say something, I will listen. If you don't want to say something to me, I will listen." I won’t force you to ask.”
He has never liked taking care of her. He has been like this since he was young. Whatever she wants to do, it is enough for him to support her.
Except for dangerous things, of course.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian looked at him in shock, feeling indescribable emotions.
He didn't even pursue the case for Shi Di? She was stalking his wife.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Mu Qianchu asked.
"Mu Qianchu, you are really different."
She spoke out.
Since he lost his memory, when had he listened carefully to what she said? Every word she said was wrong. Even when she asked him for help, he said coldly to collect her body...
Now, he said that she must have her own reasons for what she did, instead of trying to defend Shi Di.
“…”
Mu Qianchu looked at her, his eyes moving slightly.
It's not that he's different, it's that he finally turned back to the Mu Qianchu he was before.
The words rolled to his lips twice, but Mu Qianchu still didn't say them. He stared at her face, her eyebrows, her eyes, her nose, and her lips, staring deeply.
Shi Xiaonian felt a little uncomfortable and didn't know what to say.
"Shi Di and the others haven't left yet. Let's find a safe way to eavesdrop."
Mu Qianchu vaguely guessed the purpose of her coming out today, and said with a gentle voice with a hint of indescribable fatigue.
He had to help her do it before leaving, otherwise she would not know how to make fun of her own safety if she was left alone to figure it out.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian was completely stunned. He wanted to help her eavesdrop
Mu Qianchu stood up and asked, "Do you have that silver box that can be plugged into your mobile phone?"
Silver box
Shi Xiaonian looked at him in shock, and it took a few seconds to finally fully understand.
It turned out that the reason why she got Shi Di's cell phone so easily that day at Mu's house was because Mu Qianchu secretly helped. He suddenly sent everyone away at that time, leaving her alone.
She thought it was luck.
"That day, you helped me on purpose." She said quietly.
Mu Qianchu did not deny it, only asked, "Did you bring it?"
"Um."
Shi Xiaonian walked aside, opened her backpack and took out the silver shield. She always carried this small silver box with her, just in case.
"Give it to me." Mu Qianchu took the silver shield from her hand, glanced at it lightly and said, "This is an advanced eavesdropping device. Can you still eavesdrop if the phone is turned off
Shi Xiaonian nodded stiffly, "Yes."
The virus program Gong Ou gave her was so invincible that it could turn the phone itself into an eavesdropping device. If Tang Yi and Shi Di didn't come here to have a secret conversation without any communication tools, she wouldn't have to follow them and would just eavesdrop at home. Just fine.
"Yeah." Mu Qianchu nodded, then walked out, "Wait for me here for a while."
“…”
Shi Xiaonian watched him leave with confusion.
What does he want to do
A few minutes later, Mu Qianchu returned to the room, glanced at her at the door, and motioned for her to come over.
Shi Xiaonian walked over in confusion, and Mu Qianchu opened the door a crack. A uniformed waiter stood there pushing a meal station outside and gave an "OK" gesture to Mu Qianchu.
Shi Xiaonian was even more confused.
"Come here, don't make any sound."
Mu Qianchu pulled her, and Shi Xiaonian was brought over by him, leaning against the cold wall with him, shoulders close together.
She was stunned, and suddenly she heard a knock on the door outside, and the waiter's sweet voice said, "Hello, the hotel service will deliver the meal to you."
The waiter knocked on the door of Shidi's room next door.
Then, there was the sound of the door opening next door.
Shi Xiaonian felt inexplicably nervous, her fingers were cold, and suddenly her hand tightened. She lowered her head and saw Mu Qianchu holding her hand and holding it firmly.
Her eyes froze and her heartbeat paused for a second.
The next second, she took her hand out and put it behind her back.
Mu Qianchu leaned his back against the wall and felt her movements. His hands hung there stiffly and said nothing.
From the direction of the next room, Shi Di's voice sounded like a baby, "I didn't order food."
"This is a gift item from our hotel. Please accept it." The waiter said with a smile and was getting something.
"No need, take it away." Shi Di chased people away displeased.
"Well, please accept this bottle of red wine. Miss, I wish you a pleasant stay."
After a few words, the door next door closed and the waiter came over pushing the dining cart.
Mu Qianchu opened the door to the big room. The waiter nodded to Mu Qianchu with a smile and said softly, "I have done as you asked, so I'll leave first."
Mu Qianchu nodded.
After that, the waiter left.
Mu Qianchu closed the door, and Shi Xiaonian asked with confusion, "What did she do?"
"Throw my phone into the next room." Mu Qianchu said.
His phone... thrown into the next room
"Mobile phones tend to make noise, so I turned it off to be safe." Mu Qianchu said calmly, "And I have implanted your eavesdropping program into that phone."
“…”
Shi Xiaonian looked at him blankly.
He implanted a virus into his mobile phone, turning it into a listening device, and then placed it in the next room through the waiter.
In other words, she would know what Tang Yi and Shi Di said just by going back and listening.
It is indeed a foolproof method.
"Just go back and listen." Mu Qianchu said again, "Then I'll leave first."
After saying that, Mu Qianchu opened the door and prepared to leave.
Shi Xiaonian looked at his back, clenched his hands behind his back, and couldn't help but ask, "Why do you want to help me?"
What he did was far beyond her expectations.
He is Shi Di's husband, isn't he? Now he is helping her eavesdrop on Shi Di's secrets, and he doesn't ask why.
Mu Qianchu's back paused, stopping at the door, and the hand resting on the door moved.
He was silent.
"Why help me?" Shi Xiaonian asked again.
"Do you want to know the answer?"
Mu Qianchu did not look back, his voice was clear and low, as if it was coming from his throat with difficulty.
In the huge room, silence flowed in the air.
Sunlight breaks through the balcony and shines brightly on the dark wood grain floor.
Shi Xiaonian stood behind him, looking at his back in astonishment, an indescribable feeling welling up in her heart. After a long time, she heard her own voice ringing in the quiet room, "Of course I want to know the answer. "
Why did he sound... like she should know the answer.
But she really doesn't know.
What on earth was he thinking
Why is he doing all this to help her
Mu Qianchu stood at the door for almost a minute, reached out to close the door, then slowly turned around and looked straight at her, the loneliness in his eyes clearly visible.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian looked at him blankly, not understanding why the loneliness in his eyes was.
Suddenly, Mu Qianchu laughed lightly and walked toward her step by step. He put one hand on the wall and traced the lines on the wall with his fingertips.
At that moment, Shi Xiaonian had a hallucination, as if she saw young Mu Qianchu walking towards her.
When he was young, Mu Qianchu had no vision and would always touch the wall with his fingers and walk slowly towards her.
Seeing his actions like this, Shi Xiaonian's face was extremely pale.
Reality and the past were confused before her eyes.
Mu Qianchu walked up to her and looked down at her pale face, the loneliness in his eyes gradually dissipating.
She still remembers it, doesn't she
She gave up on him, but she still remembered everything they had in the past.
A smile slowly appeared on his face and he moved his lips. Just as he was about to speak, a sharp pain hit his head. Mu Qianchu quickly stretched out his hand to hold his head and fell towards her helplessly.
Shi Xiaonian suddenly woke up from the confused memory and quickly supported him, "Are you okay?" (To be continued)
