The more Mu Nuannuan thought about it, the more she felt that she was right.
If other people said they hadn't found anything, Mu Nuannuan would have believed it, but Mu Tingxiao couldn't.
Mu Tingxiao's confidence radiates from his bones.
Once this idea came up, I couldn't stop it.
Mu Nuannuan has been thinking about this all day.
As soon as she got off work, she hurriedly took the car home and wanted to talk to Mu Tingxiao about it.
However, when she returned home, Mu Tingxiao had not returned yet.
It was already seven o'clock when Aunt Hu prepared dinner, but Mu Tingxiao hadn't come back yet.
Seeing that it was getting late, Aunt Hu advised Mu Nuannuan, "Young madam, let's eat first. The young master doesn't know when he will be back."
"It's okay, I'll wait."
Mu Tingxiao will definitely be very busy on his first day at Mu's. This is normal.
After waiting for a while, seeing that Mu Tingxiao hadn't come back yet, Mu Nuannuan was about to call Mu Tingxiao.
However, as soon as she took out her mobile phone, a call came in.
She narrowed her eyes and saw that it was Mu Tingxiao calling.
Mu Nuannuan answered the phone and asked him, "When will you come back?"
"I just finished a meeting. You may be back very late tonight. You go to bed first and don't wait for me." Mu Tingxiao's slightly lowered voice sounded mixed with a hint of tenderness that he noticed, but also revealed a hint of exhaustion.
The meeting went on for so long that he didn't even notice it was so late.
As soon as the meeting ended, he immediately called Mu Nuannuan.
"I see… "
Recently, although she and Mu Tingxiao didn't go to and from get off work together, they still went out together in the morning and got home together in the evening.
Now facing an empty room alone, Mu Nuannuan still felt a little uncomfortable.
After eating, she returned to her room and wrote a manuscript while holding her computer.
As I write, I pay attention to whether there is any sound of cars outside.
However, she was so tired after a day's work that she fell asleep leaning against the bedside soon after.
When Mu Tingxiao came back, he saw this scene.
The heating in the room was very strong. When Mu Tingxiao walked into the bedroom, he immediately saw Mu Nuannuan sleeping on the bed with her head tilted.
One of her hands was still resting on the keyboard of her laptop, her bangs were raised, and her long hair was spread out.
Mu Tingxiao walked over lightly, reached out and pulled out the computer that was pressed under Mu Nuannuan's hand.
Although his movements were very gentle, Mu Nuannuan was still awakened because she was sleeping too lightly.
Mu Nuannuan opened her hazy sleepy eyes, not quite awake yet, looked at the person in front of her, and said drowsily: "Are you back?"
Her eyes were dim and she had slept with her head tilted against the head of the bed for too long. If she moved, her whole body would tilt and she would fall on the bed.
With quick eyes and hands, Mu Tingxiao reached out to support her head, and put his other hand around her waist to help her sleep. He said in a low voice, "Well, sleep quickly."
After hearing this, Mu Nuannuan really fell asleep again.
From the time she lay back on the bed to the time she fell asleep, it only took ten seconds.
Mu Tingxiao looked at her peaceful sleeping face and was stunned for a moment. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch her nose and murmured: "Pig?"
He went to the bathroom to wash up and came back, then lay down on the bed. Mu Nuannuan, who was already asleep, seemed to be conscious and automatically crawled into Mu Tingxiao's arms.
When Mu Tingxiao saw this, his eyes were filled with tenderness, he held her tightly in his arms, and soon fell asleep.
…
The next day.
When Mu Nuannuan opened her eyes, she subconsciously reached out and groped around her.
As a result, it was empty next to me.
She suddenly rolled over from the bed and sat up.
Mu Tingxiao didn't come back last night
No, it seems to be back...
Mu Nuannuan turned her head and looked at the laptop on the sofa.
She remembered that Mu Tingxiao came back last night and helped her put away her computer.
But what about others? You're not leaving again, are you
Mu Nuannuan got out of bed, grabbed a coat and put it on, then opened the door and ran downstairs with her slippers on.
She ran to the stairs and saw Mu Tingxiao in formal clothes walking out the door.
She called out: "Mu Tingxiao?"
Mu Tingxiao turned around after hearing this, glanced at it, and frowned slightly: "Go back and change clothes. I'll go to the company first."
"Oh." Mu Nuannuan responded subconsciously, and saw Mu Tingxiao turned around and walked out.
She opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything out loud.
It wasn't until Mu Tingxiao's figure disappeared that she tightened her coat and went back to the bedroom to change clothes.
…
Mu Tingxiao became very busy.
She was so busy that she didn't even have time to have a meal with Mu Nuannuan. Often when she got up in the morning, he had already left or was about to leave.
When she came back in the evening, Mu Tingxiao was still working overtime at the company. When he came back, Mu Nuannuan was either asleep or already awake.
A week passed like this.
Mu Nuannuan thought that Mu Tingxiao would always have a day off on weekends, but when she got up early on the weekend, she saw Mu Tingxiao had changed into a suit, looking very energetic and majestic.
Mu Tingxiao seemed to have endless energy. He had been so busy for a week in a row, but he still seemed so energetic.
Mu Nuannuan picked up her phone and saw her tired face through the phone screen.
She goes to work later than Mu Tingxiao and gets off work earlier than Mu Tingxiao, but she looks even more tired than Mu Tingxiao.
If she hadn't been with Mu Tingxiao for so long, she would have doubted whether Mu Tingxiao was human.
"I'm going to the company right away. You can sleep a little longer." Mu Tingxiao heard the noise and turned around to look at her, lowering his head to arrange his cufflinks.
Today's cufflinks seemed to be working against him, they couldn't be buttoned no matter how hard they were buttoned.
Mu Nuannuan opened the quilt and sat up, with a soft and hazy voice that sounded like she had just woken up: "Come here."
Mu Tingxiao came over, sat down by the bed, stretched out his sleeves in front of Mu Nuannuan, and handed her the cufflinks as well.
He lowered his eyes and watched Mu Nuannuan's slender white fingers pinching the dark shirt sleeves. After helping him put on the cufflinks, she also adjusted his suit jacket for him.
His throat moved slightly, and he lowered his head and kissed Mu Nuannuan's forehead: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, I should be able to relax a little bit if I stay busy for a while."
Mu Nuannuan was silent for a moment and asked him, "Does Mrs. Mu have so many things to be busy with?"
"Yes, a lot of things." There was a rare hint of fatigue in Mu Tingxiao's voice.
After the words fell, both of them fell silent.
Mu Nuannuan seemed to have thought of something and said, "Did you know that eldest brother is back?"
Mu Tingxiao's expression froze slightly, and he narrowed his eyes slightly: "When did you come back?"
"He has been back for a few days, and he also said he wanted to have dinner with us." This is indeed what Mu Nuannuan wanted to tell Mu Tingxiao.
Mu Tingxiao pondered for a moment: "I will get off work early tomorrow and ask my eldest brother to go to Jinding for dinner."
"Yes." Mu Nuannuan nodded, a flash of joy in her eyes.
Finally I can have a meal with Mu Tingxiao!
