It had only been about five days since Mu Nuannuan set off from Huyang City to find Shen Liang.
It will take at least one or two days to get here from Huyang City. With the current bad road conditions, it will definitely be difficult to walk on the road, and it will take a little more time on the road.
If it takes two days to walk on the road, then Li Jiuheng's departure time must be pushed forward by at least two days.
Mu Tingxiao set off the second day after Mu Nuannuan set off and arrived on the third day.
Based on this calculation, Li Jiuheng set out here on the day Mu Tingxiao arrived.
Being able to confirm that she was here and find her in such a short period of time meant that Li Jiuheng had most likely been secretly paying attention to her every move.
She lived with Li Jiuheng for a while, and later the two experienced a car accident together. Although it was a fatal friendship, Mu Nuannuan could feel that Li Jiuheng had no feelings for her.
A man always pays attention to every move of a woman. If he doesn't have feelings for this woman, he must have other purposes.
As for Li Jiuheng's purpose, Mu Nuannuan is still more willing to think in a kind direction.
After all, it was Li Jiuheng who was helping her all along.
Although he suddenly appeared three years ago, he saved her.
Without him, she would have been dead.
Mu Nuannuan asked him: "The road outside was severely damaged. How did you get in?"
"Helicopter." After Li Jiuheng finished speaking, he looked her over: "As long as you're fine."
Mu Nuannuan was about to speak when she realized something was wrong in the atmosphere.
She turned around and saw Mu Tingxiao staring at her coldly.
Mu Nuannuan shuddered, where did she offend him
She pursed her lips and sat next to Mu Tingxiao. When she turned around to look, she found that Mu Tingxiao's complexion seemed to have improved a little, and then asked Li Jiuheng: "Have you had breakfast?"
Li Jiuheng glanced at her and Mu Tingxiao and said, "I've eaten."
Mu Nuannuan felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird and didn't know what to say, so she could only say casually: "We haven't eaten yet..."
At this time, Mu Tingxiao, who had been silent until now, suddenly said, "Mr. Li's clinic closed down?"
Li Jiuheng's expression was stiff for a few seconds, and then he said, "No, I don't know why Mr. Mu asked that?"
Mu Tingxiao sneered, and his deep voice was a bit colder than usual: "Mr. Li is too free to care about other people's wives. I thought it was because the clinic has closed down and he is too free to do anything."
Mu Nuannuan heard the word "wife" and looked up at Mu Tingxiao in surprise.
Li Jiuheng was choked by Mu Tingxiao's words and remained silent for a long time.
He first twitched the corners of his lips and showed a very forced smile: "Thanks to Mr. Mu's concern, my psychological clinic is running very well and has many regular customers, but everyone wants to grow bigger. If Mr. Mu is interested, he can You can introduce me to some customers, or Mr. Mu yourself, or you can take care of my business."
As Li Jiuheng spoke, his tone became more and more natural, as if he had just made a business partner at the dinner party.
only…
Mu Nuannuan felt that his last words seemed to have a deeper meaning.
The smile on Mu Tingxiao's face became deeper, and the aura on his body became colder: "I dare to come, do you dare to accept it?"
"Mr. Mu can come to me. It is a trust in me and an honor for me. Even if I don't dare to accept it, I still have to accept it." Li Jiuheng's voice sounded a little excited.
Mu Ting glanced at him and said nothing.
The conversation between the two men was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke.
When Li Jiuheng saw that Mu Tingxiao stopped paying attention to him, he turned his target to Mu Nuannuan.
"Nuan Nuan, do you want to have breakfast before leaving?"
As soon as his words came out, Mu Tingxiao also looked towards her.
Mu Tingxiao's expression was indifferent. He only glanced at her faintly and then turned away.
He obviously didn't say anything, but Mu Nuannuan felt as if he had said everything.
Li Jiuheng and Mu Tingxiao were at odds with each other, and every conversation between the two was tit-for-tat.
Although Mu Nuannuan felt a little sorry, she still found an excuse and declined politely: "I'm afraid I can't leave with you. We still have friends who will find us here. We have to wait for them to come together."
Li Jiuheng noticed that Mu Nuannuan said "we" instead of "Mu Tingxiao and I".
His eyes flashed slightly, and then he smiled faintly: "Okay, I'll stay with you here and wait for your friends to come together."
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Mu Tingxiao and asked himself: "Nuan Nuan's friends are also Mr. Mu's friends, right? I believe Mr. Mu's friends are not very slow. "
Even Mu Nuannuan could hear the provocation in Li Jiuheng's words, let alone Mu Tingxiao.
She didn't know why Li Jiuheng deliberately said such words to provoke Mu Tingxiao, but now was not the time to ask such questions.
She turned to look at Mu Tingxiao's expression, and found that there was no change on his face, so she felt slightly relieved.
He was afraid that Master Mu Tingxiao would get angry and start a fight with Li Jiuheng.
If these two people really fight, no one here can stop them.
Moreover, she will also be in a dilemma.
"It's time to have breakfast."
The uncle's voice came from the room next to her. Mu Nuannuan turned around and saw that the uncle had walked to the door of the main room. He was holding a bowl of fried vegetables in one hand and a bowl of kimchi in the other.
He walked straight to Li Jiuheng with two bowls of food, put the two bowls of food on the table, frowned at Li Jiuheng, turned around, got a stool, and sat down beside him.
The uncle usually lives alone, and there are just three chairs in the main room. When they eat these days, they just eat around the dining table with a chair.
The uncle's expression just now seemed to be blaming Li Jiuheng for taking his place.
The uncle was a stubborn man, and he was probably very dissatisfied that Li Jiuheng came into his house without even saying hello.
Mu Nuannuan quickly stood up and put her chair in front of the dining table: "I'll go to the kitchen to serve the food."
"Yes." The uncle nodded, then turned to glance at Li Jiuheng.
No matter how slow Li Jiuheng was, he still had no idea what the old man meant when he looked at him with a frown.
Mu Nuannuan went to the kitchen and brought two bowls of porridge, then turned around and saw Mu Tingxiao coming in.
The kitchen door was a bit small. When Mu Tingxiao entered, he bent slightly, took the two bowls of porridge from Mu Nuannuan's hands, turned around and left.
Mu Nuannuan turned around to pick up another bowl and followed Mu Tingxiao.
So Li Jiuheng saw such a scene.
Mu Nuannuan and Mu Tingxiao sat at a wooden table that was so old that the original color could no longer be seen. Together with an old country man, they ate porridge with colorless pickles and a bowl of green vegetables.
