After Mu Nuannuan finished speaking, she looked at Mu Mu again.
Mu Mu put her arms around Mu Tingxiao's neck, tilted her head and called out sweetly: "Pretty sister."
"Yes." Mu Nuannuan responded, her voice becoming gentle unconsciously: "Mu Mu can't run around anymore."
Only then did Mu Tingxiao remember why he was so familiar with the woman in front of him.
He remembered that when she was waiting at the red light at the intersection that day, Mu Mu also called her "pretty sister".
In the past three years, many famous ladies have tried their best to get in front of him to make his presence felt.
He himself didn't know why, but he was not interested in any of those so-called "beauties". He thought they all looked the same.
He couldn't even arouse the slightest interest in Mu Mu's biological mother, Su Mian.
If he hadn't had someone compare his DNA with Mu Mu's, he wouldn't have believed that he had ever been with Su Mian.
The woman in front of me has changed a lot compared to the last time I saw her, and she looks much more pleasing to the eye.
Last time he only took a quick look at her, and he only remembered that she was a skinny, ghost-white woman, as ugly as she could be.
It looks like it has gained some weight now.
but…
Mu Tingxiao's eyes fell on Mu Nuannuan's exposed slender wrist. He suspected that he could crush her wrist bones with just a gentle squeeze.
Mu Tingxiao's gaze was too sharp, as if there was substance, and Mu Nuannuan felt uncomfortable looking at him.
She had no choice but to change the subject and asked: "Mr. Mu, you...we were on the phone before. How did you know that Mu Mu had found a sister to help her make the call?"
Mu Tingxiao lowered his gaze, looked at her face, and said indifferently: "She calls anyone of the same sex who is taller than her sister."
The fact is that whenever Mu Mu sees someone of the same sex whom she considers beautiful, she will call her "pretty sister" no matter how old she is.
"I see..." Mu Nuannuan nodded.
The cell phone in her bag suddenly vibrated. Mu Nuannuan took it out and saw that it was Shen Liang calling.
She held the phone but did not answer it. She raised her head and said hurriedly to Mu Tingxiao: "Mr. Mu, I really don't need any reward. I must take good care of the child in the future. She is still too young, so I will leave first."
After she finished speaking, she glanced at Mu Mu again and left.
As she walked, she took out her mobile phone to answer Shen Liang's call.
"Sorry, I forgot to call you back." She had just been playing with Mu Mu and forgot about it.
She also realized that she actually liked children so much.
"It's okay, are you home?"
"Go back now..."
Just as Mu Nuannuan hung up Shen Liang's call, Li Jiuheng called again.
Li Jiuheng was very quiet on the other end: "Where is it?"
Mu Nuannuan looked at the time and found that it was already past six o'clock, so she asked aloud: "I was outside and was about to take a taxi back. Are you already home?"
Li Jiuheng said "hmm" and said, "Send me the address and I'll pick you up."
"No, please take a rest. I'll take a taxi back soon..." Mu Nuannuan knew that she would not be able to defeat Li Jiuheng if she continued, so she hung up the phone.
It's the rush hour after get off work, so it's not easy to take a taxi.
The house leaked and it rained continuously all night. Before Mu Nuannuan could get into the car, a thunder flashed in the sky and it started to rain.
It was probably the last thunderstorm at the end of summer. It came so violently that the huge raindrops hurt my face.
Mu Nuannuan's thin clothes were soaked by the rain within a few seconds, and she found a place to hide under an advertising row, but it didn't help.
The phone rang again at this time.
Mu Nuannuan squinted her eyes and took a look. It was a series of numbers without names.
That was Mu Tingxiao's number that she had called before, but she didn't save it.
She hesitated for a moment, then answered the phone.
"Is there anything else wrong, Mr. Mu?"
The man's voice was low and deep, hitting her eardrums along with the sound of heavy rain: "Get in the car and sit in the passenger seat. You can't park here."
After the words fell, Mu Nuannuan heard a "beep" sound.
She looked up and saw a black car driving right in front of her. Probably seeing that she hadn't arrived, it honked again.
Mu Nuannuan bit her lip, held her bag on her head, walked over in a hurry, opened the passenger door and got in.
As soon as she sat down, she heard Mu Mu's milky voice from behind: "Pretty sister!"
Mu Nuannuan turned around and saw Mu Mu sitting in the child safety seat in the back seat, holding a box of milk in her mouth, smiling so hard that her eyes turned into crescents.
She smiled and called out: "Mumu."
Mu Tingxiao drove forward. Hearing this, he couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Mu Nuannuan.
Besides looking more pleasing to the eye than other women, why does Mu Mu like her so much
Mu Mu, who was sitting alone in the back row, held up the milk in her hand and said to Mu Nuannuan, "Drink."
Children's minds are very simple. If they like someone, they will be willing to share toys and food with them.
"I won't drink, Mumu will drink by herself."
When Mu Mu heard what she said, she hugged the milk and continued to drink.
Mu Nuannuan turned her head and said to Mu Tingxiao apologetically: "Sorry, Mr. Mu, your car got wet..."
Most people would say "It's okay" at this time.
But Mu Tingxiao just responded lightly: "Yeah."
Um
What's the meaning
Although it was raining outside, the temperature did not drop for a while, so the air conditioner was still turned on in the car.
Mu Nuannuan's clothes were all wet, and she couldn't help but shiver when the cold air blew.
At this time, the man next to him threw his suit jacket over and turned off the air conditioner.
The quality of the suit jacket is excellent, the cut and design are very elegant, and it has a unique refreshing atmosphere that belongs to men.
Mu Nuannuan held her suit jacket and froze for a moment, then turned to look at Mu Tingxiao: "Mr. Mu..."
Mu Tingxiao just asked her: "Where do you live?"
His tone was too decisive and tough, causing Mu Nuannuan to subconsciously give her address.
After hearing this, Mu Tingxiao set up the navigation and said nothing.
Mu Nuannuan looked at his neat profile profile, hesitated for a moment, and then wrapped his coat around her body.
Her current health is a little worse than that of ordinary people, and she does feel a little cold.
If he gets sick later, Li Jiuheng will be angry.
Mu Mu in the back row fell asleep while drinking milk. Mu Tingxiao didn't speak, and Mu Nuannuan even breathed softly.
The carriage fell into silence, but there was a strange sense of harmony.
It was as if this scene had happened before.
When Mu Nuannuan was distracted, Mu Tingxiao's indifferent voice sounded in her ears: "We're here."
She suddenly came to her senses and took off her coat: "Sorry, Mr. Mu."
Mu Tingxiao said nothing, watching her get out of the car and rush into the rain, her slender figure looking extremely fragile.
The hands on the steering wheel clenched unconsciously.
