Li Jiuheng smiled kindly at Mu Mu: "You're so good."
Mu Mu pursed her lips and gave the lollipop to Mu Mu: "Mom, help me open it."
Mu Nuannuan took it and helped her tear it open while asking Li Jiuheng: "Why are there candies in your office?"
"In addition to adults, my patients also have children." Li Jiuheng said it in one sentence, and asked her with a straight face: "Tell me, why do you come to see me?"
Mu Nuannuan was stunned: "Can't I just come to have a chat with you?"
"I wish you could, but are you just here to chat with me?" The smile on Li Jiuheng's face remained unchanged, but his eyes showed a look that could see through everything.
Mu Nuannuan sighed helplessly: "I feel ashamed if you say that. I really came here because of something."
After she finished speaking, she took out the invitation letter from her bag and handed it to Li Jiuheng.
"Mu Tingxiao is hosting a dinner party on Friday. I hope you can come."
Li Jiuheng glanced at the invitation, his expression unchanged: "Mu Tingxiao asked you to give it to me?"
Mu Nuannuan's eyes flashed slightly and he looked at her without saying anything.
"You know that Mu Tingxiao and I have never gotten along, so you wouldn't invite me to the dinner party he hosted. Of course, Mu Tingxiao asked you to bring it to me."
Li Jiuheng raised his lips and smiled, his expression looking a little playful: "Mu Tingxiao is really interesting. He clearly wishes that I wouldn't meet you, and yet he asked you to come over in person to deliver the invitation. I don't know what his intention was. .”
Mu Nuannuan discovered that none of the men she knew were good.
Li Jiuheng's origins are unknown, and he is also very smart. He doesn't seem to have any bad intentions towards her, but Mu Nuannuan knows that everything Li Jiuheng does cannot be without reason.
In the same way, Mu Tingxiao does not do anything for no reason.
Mu Nuannuan frowned slightly and thought for a moment, then suddenly thought of something, and her expression suddenly changed.
Li Jiuheng noticed the change in her expression: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Mu Nuannuan twitched her lips and smiled a little reluctantly: "I'll go back if I have anything else to do. See you later."
"Did I drive here to see you off?" Li Jiuheng also stood up, picked up the coat hanging on the back of the chair, and followed Mu Nuannuan out.
Mu Nuannuan said: "No need to send it off, I drove here."
"I'll take you out."
Li Jiuheng didn't listen to Mu Nuannuan and sent the mother and daughter into the car.
When he came back, the front desk lady smiled and teased him: "Dr. Li, Miss Mu came here specially to see you."
"Yes, he came here to see me. He sat there for less than ten minutes and then left." Li Jiuheng accepted her words calmly and was not angry.
When he returned to the office, the smile on his face faded.
After walking to the chair behind the desk and sitting down, Li Jiuheng curled his lips and sneered.
His eyes fell on the invitation, and he looked at it for a few seconds, then looked away.
Mu Tingxiao wanted to kill two birds with one stone.
He was not only testing Mu Nuannuan, but also testing him.
Now that people are coming to his door, he naturally wants to fight them.
…
On the way back, Mu Nuannuan drove a little too fast.
Mu Mu sat in the back seat and fell asleep eating candy.
When the car arrived at the downstairs of the community, Mu Tingxiao's car happened to drive over.
Mu Nuannuan looked at the time, and it happened to be half past five.
Mu Tingxiao just came back from get off work.
She opened the car door and got out of the car. Shiye on the other side also got out of the car and opened the door for Mu Tingxiao. Mu Tingxiao got out of the car and saw Mu Nuannuan as soon as he got out of the car.
The two looked at each other in the distance, both of them looking unhappy.
Shiye looked at Mu Nuannuan, then at Mu Tingxiao, and tentatively said, "Master?"
Mu Tingxiao looked slightly stern: "Go back."
After Shi Ye left, Mu Tingxiao strode towards Mu Nuannuan: "Where is Mu Mu?"
His voice and tone were the same as usual, but his eyes betrayed him. There was an undercurrent surging in his dark eyes.
"Fell asleep."
Mu Nuannuan turned around, opened the rear door, and leaned over to take Mu Mu out.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, Mu Tingxiao grabbed her wrist: "I'll hold her."
After he finished speaking, he added: "She has gained weight recently."
"Where did it say that the child is fat? She is a healthy weight." Mu Nuannuan glared at him, but still stepped aside.
Mu Tingxiao unbuckled the safety belt of the child's single safety chair and took Mu Mu out.
Mu Mu slept deeply and did not wake up when Mu Tingxiao picked her up.
Mu Mu lay on Mu Tingxiao's shoulder. Mu Tingxiao had good arm strength and could hold Mu Mu firmly by holding her leg with one hand.
Mu Nuannuan walked behind, closed the car door, and locked the car before following.
When she followed Mu Tingxiao, Mu Tingxiao had already pressed the elevator button.
She stood half a step behind Mu Tingxiao, waiting for the elevator with him.
Although the distance between the two was not far, Mu Tingxiao could feel that Mu Nuannuan was deliberately trying to distance herself from him.
He frowned slightly and his eyes darkened a bit.
There was no unnecessary communication between the two of them until they entered the room.
Mu Tingxiao carried Mu Mu into the room to sleep. When he came out, he saw Mu Nuannuan not cooking, but sitting on the sofa, looking like she wanted to have a long talk with him.
Mu Tingxiao walked over and sat down opposite her.
Mu Nuannuan raised her eyes and looked at him expressionlessly.
Mu Tingxiao still looked like he was facing the collapse of the mountain without changing his expression. It was impossible to wait for him to take the initiative to speak.
Mu Nuannuan said impatiently: "I have personally sent the invitation letter to Li Jiuheng for the dinner. Are you satisfied?"
Her voice was soft to begin with, but when it was deliberately soft, it sounded a bit uncomfortable.
Mu Tingxiao's expression suddenly turned cold, and he reached out and roughly pulled open his tie, looking very irritated.
He threw the tie aside and said in a cold tone: "If you have a legitimate opportunity to meet him, aren't you the one who should be satisfied?"
He didn't even want to mention Li Jiuheng's name, and he felt angry when he mentioned it.
Mu Nuannuan's eyes dimmed a bit.
Sure enough, as she had thought before, Mu Tingxiao was testing her.
He had never been a generous person when it came to matters related to her, so there was no way he could simply ask her to send an invitation letter to Li Jiuheng.
He was testing Mu Nuannuan with this.
In his opinion, if he and Li Jiuheng were at odds, Mu Nuannuan should not have any contact with Li Jiuheng.
Mu Nuannuan could guess what Mu Tingxiao was thinking at this moment without Mu Tingxiao having to say it directly.
He must now feel that when she agreed to send the invitation in person, she had other thoughts about Li Jiuheng. If she had not sent the invitation, she would have been able to prove her sincerity.
Mu Nuannuan felt extremely ridiculous, but also felt a little sad at the same time.
