Gu Zhiyan returned to the dining table next to him and sat down. Li Jiuheng asked Mu Nuannuan with concern, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, that Mr. Gu just now didn't mean any harm." Mu Nuannuan turned her head and glanced in Gu Zhiyan's direction.
Who knew that Gu Zhiyan was also looking at her, his eyes full of doubts and confusion.
"It's okay, let's order." Li Jiuheng did not continue the topic.
Gu Zhiyan on the other side was eating and looking towards Mu Nuannuan.
Mother Gu suddenly said: "Zhiyan, do you know what you look like now?"
"What?" Gu Zhiyan asked absently.
Gu's mother glanced at Mu Nuannuan, then approached Gu Zhiyan's ear mysteriously and said, "You are now like a husband who caught his wife cheating."
Gu Zhiyan turned his head and stared at Gu's mother for a few seconds before saying very seriously: "No, I am that 'husband''s friend."
"Ah?" Gu's mother was stunned for a long time before tentatively asking: "Is that your friend's wife?"
"Yeah." Gu Zhiyan responded, thinking of Mu Tingxiao, he sighed and shook his head.
After thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone and prepared to call Shen Liang to tell him that he saw Mu Nuannuan.
However, now that he didn't know anything about Mu Nuannuan, he called Shen Liang, and Shen Liang couldn't help but follow along.
Let’s find out what’s going on with Mu Nuannuan.
…
When Mu Nuannuan and Li Jiuheng finished eating, the people at the table next to them were still eating.
When they arrived at the parking lot, the two of them got into the car. Li Jiuheng said, "I seem to have left my cell phone in the restaurant. I'll get it. You wait for me in the car."
"Yes." Mu Nuannuan said without any doubt, "Go ahead, I'll wait for you."
Li Jiuheng got out of the car, turned a corner, and arrived at the back door of the restaurant.
Gu Zhiyan was lighting a cigarette when he saw Li Jiuheng coming over and asked, "Do you want to smoke?"
"Thank you." Li Jiuheng took the cigarette that Gu Zhiyan handed him.
Gu Zhiyan blew out a smoke ring, with a stern face, and asked directly: "Who are you? How did you find Mu Nuannuan? Where have you hidden her in the past three years?"
Li Jiuheng handed over his business card: "Li Jiuheng."
Gu Zhiyan took it and took a look at it. He glanced at the words "psychological clinic" and stuffed the business card directly into his pants pocket.
"You haven't answered my question yet." Gu Zhiyan was not interested at all in what Li Jiuheng did. He only wanted to know about Mu Nuannuan now.
For Mu Tingxiao and Shen Liang, he had the responsibility and obligation to know about Mu Nuannuan.
"I didn't hide her. She was seriously injured in the accident that year. She underwent dozens of large and small surgeries. She was in a coma for three years. She just woke up recently and has forgotten many things. I hope you so-called 'past' Friends, don't bother her, her body has not recovered yet."
Li Jiuheng's expression was serious, and his tone was somewhat unquestionable.
After what happened that year, Mu Tingxiao had almost recovered when he returned to China.
Therefore, Gu Zhiyan did not expect that Mu Nuannuan would be so seriously injured that she would be in a coma for three years before waking up.
"Mu Nuannuan grew up in Huyang City. She doesn't have many friends. When did she meet you?" Li Jiuheng's mouth was very strict, so Gu Zhiyan had to inquire from the side.
"This has nothing to do with Mr. Gu, but I saved her, and I am responsible for her health. You can go see her, but please don't disturb her or affect her health. If nothing else It’s okay, I’ll take my leave now.”
Li Jiuheng said so politely, but his tone was very tough.
His meaning was very clear. He saved Mu Nuannuan. He did not prevent Gu Zhiyan and the others from contacting Mu Nuannuan, but he did not let them tell Mu Nuannuan about her past.
This person is simply being unreasonable!
but…
Gu Zhiyan thought of Mu Tingxiao's current situation, grabbed his hair irritably, and kicked the wall.
The next moment, he was in so much pain that he was hopping around on one foot, holding his feet.
…
When Li Jiuheng returned to the car, Mu Nuannuan had already begun to half-doze her eyes and was about to fall asleep.
Hearing the sound of the car door closing, Mu Nuannuan opened her eyes.
Li Jiuheng saw her opening her eyes and simply asked her: "Are you sleepy?"
"It's okay." Mu Nuannuan glanced at the mobile phone he threw aside and asked, "Why did you go so long?"
Li Jiuheng's expression remained as usual: "I stopped by the bathroom."
Mu Nuannuan nodded, looking like he was hesitant to speak.
"Just tell me if you have anything to say." Li Jiuheng saw her looking worried, and the corners of his lips raised slightly.
After hearing what Li Jiuheng said, Mu Nuannuan no longer hesitated and asked, "That Mr. Gu just now... do I really know him?"
"Maybe, what do you think?" Li Jiuheng asked her while starting the car.
"Don't you know him?" Mu Nuannuan was a little surprised. She thought Li Jiuheng would know Gu Zhiyan.
Li Jiuheng chuckled and said, "I don't know him, and I'm not sure if you know him. As you can imagine, our relationship was not close before."
Mu Nuannuan has been feeling recently that her relationship with Li Jiuheng may not be as close as a normal "unmarried couple", but she didn't expect that Li Jiuheng had noticed what she was thinking.
She said somewhat uncomfortably: "How...how did you know..."
"Because I use this place to see you, so I can know whatever you think." Li Jiuheng pointed at his chest.
Although his words were addressed to her, his eyes did not look at her.
Mu Nuannuan turned her head and looked over, and could only see his side face.
At this time, Li Jiuheng suddenly turned to look at her: "If you feel touched, you can tell me directly."
When Mu Nuannuan heard this, she couldn't help but laugh out loud: "I'm very touched."
Li Jiuheng curled his lips and laughed silently.
…
After Gu Zhiyan went back, he felt unhappy even thinking about it.
So he drove to Mu's to block Mu Tingxiao.
Mu Tingxiao, a workaholic, would stay in the company no matter on weekdays or weekends. When you want to find him, you would be right to block him at Mu's door.
It was close to eight o'clock in the evening, and Gu Zhiyan finally saw Mu Tingxiao walking out of the gate of Mu's family.
"Tingxiao!"
Gu Zhiyan shouted and ran towards him.
When Mu Tingxiao saw Gu Zhiyan, his brows furrowed slightly, with a hint of impatience: "Why is it you again? What do you want from me? Or do you want me to invest in you? I told you that I am not interested in Shengding Media."
Gu Zhiyan: "..."
Three years ago, after Mu Tingxiao woke up, just like Mu Nuannuan today, he forgot everyone and everything, including Mu Nuannuan.
Not to mention his name, Mr. Gu, who has been exploited by Master Mu for a long time.
"How many times have I told you, you are the boss behind Shengding Media!" Gu Zhiyan can no longer remember how many times he has explained this matter to Mu Tingxiao in the past three years.
