Mu Nuannuan put her hands on the dining table and leaned forward slightly: "Where is he!"
Li Jiuxuan just laughed, did not answer her question, stood up and walked out.
Mu Nuannuan hurriedly followed and stopped in front of Li Jiuxuan: "At least, let me see Li Jiuheng. You have been refusing to let me see Li Jiuheng. What is the purpose of dragging me here?"
From Li Jiuheng's words, she could infer that Li Jiuxuan didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards her. At this time, there were only two of them here, so she dared to make it clear.
Li Jiuxuan lowered his head and looked at her. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he didn't speak immediately.
He doesn't wear much clothes, just a shirt inside and a suit jacket outside. However, he doesn't button his shirt to the top button like Li Jiuheng. Li Jiuheng is a psychiatrist and he always wears a suit and tie when he goes to work. , looks very dignified and convincing.
Li Jiuxuan looked more casual than him. The top two buttons of his shirt were not buttoned. Mu Nuannuan looked up at him. Suddenly, she vaguely saw a little scar in the exposed skin at his collar. .
She remembered that when Li Jiuheng first came to see her three years ago, he had many scars on his body. Later he fell ill and was hospitalized, and Mu Nuannuan also saw them.
Li Jiuxuan also has scars on his body
Weren't these two brothers adopted by Chinese Americans when their parents died unexpectedly when they were teenagers
Logically speaking, their lives should be very ordinary. How could both of them be covered in scars
Li Jiuxuan noticed Mu Nuannuan's gaze, glanced down at her chest, raised her eyebrows and said, "Miss Mu, are you planning to seduce me to find out Li Jiuheng's whereabouts?"
Mu Nuannuan was stunned for a moment and said angrily: "Do you really think everyone is as shameless as you? What's wrong!"
After she finished speaking, she turned around and went out, and Li Jiuxuan looked at her back, suddenly frowned, and put his hands on his head, with a look of great pain on his face.
He staggered two steps and bumped into the chair behind him, but his head hurt so much it felt like it was going to explode. He couldn't steady himself at all and fell to the ground with his legs bent.
The next moment, Aluo rushed in from outside: "What's wrong with you!"
She hurriedly squatted in front of Li Jiuxuan, trying to help him up.
…
After Mu Nuannuan returned to the room, she sat on the bed and was completely confused.
She felt that there were many clues, but she also felt that there were not many clues.
Give Mu Tingxiao a call
She had to find someone to give her advice.
She picked up the phone and pressed out Mu Tingxiao's number one digit after another very skillfully. After hesitating for a while, she dialed the number.
If Mu Tingxiao's attitude was lukewarm, she would say that she missed Mu Mu.
Besides, she originally wanted Mu Mu.
The phone rang once, twice, three times...
Because no one answered the call, when it was about to hang up automatically, someone answered the call.
Mu Nuannuan didn't expect that someone would answer the phone at the last moment. She wasn't sure if it was Mu Tingxiao, or maybe Shiye, so she tentatively said, "Mu Tingxiao?"
"Um."
The person on the other end of the phone only responded faintly. Fortunately, it was indeed that familiar voice.
Calculating it carefully, Mu Nuannuan has only been in country M for about a week, but except for the first two days of phone calls, she hasn't had much contact in the past few days. Suddenly hearing Mu Tingxiao's voice, Mu Nuannuan felt a little excited. Momentary discomfort.
She held the phone in one hand and pulled the sheets unconsciously with the other hand: "What are you doing?"
Mu Tingxiao said in a cold tone: "Eat."
This time, Mu Mu's voice came from the other end: "Whose phone number?"
After Mu Mu finished speaking, he asked again: "It's mom."
When Mu Nuannuan heard Mu Mu's voice, there was a hint of joy in her tone: "Are you and Mu Mu eating at home?"
Mu Tingxiao snorted slightly and said mockingly: "Do you remember that you have a daughter?"
Mu Nuannuan decided to ignore this sentence directly: "Let Mu Mu hear the words."
There was silence on the other end for a moment, and Mu Mu's voice came from the phone: "Mom!"
Mu Tingxiao must have turned on the speakerphone, and Mu Mu was leaning closer, so his voice was a bit loud.
"Mumu, do you miss your mother?"
"I think about it, I really, really think about it."
Listening to the sound of Mu Mu Nai making milk, the corners of Mu Nuan Nuan's mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Before she could speak, she heard Mu Mu say again: "Dad misses you too, he even cried."
She also deliberately emphasized the last two words "crying", which sounded a bit exaggerated in anime.
"Ah?" Mu Nuannuan didn't react at all.
Mu Tingxiao missed her so much that he cried
Maybe Mu Tingxiao took the phone away, but Mu Mu's dissatisfied voice came from the other end of the phone: "I still want to talk to mom!"
Sure enough, the next moment, Mu Tingxiao's voice rang on the phone.
He explained without emotion: "I choked on the hot pot the day before yesterday. Zhiyan teased Mumu, and she took note of it."
Mu Nuannuan grasped the key point: "You take her to eat hot pot?"
Before Mu Tingxiao could say anything, Mu Mu on the side said loudly, "It's super spicy!"
Mu Tingxiao glanced at Mu Mu with squinted eyes. She shrugged her shoulders, blinked again, and trotted to find the maid: "Auntie, I'm so thirsty."
Excellent escape skills.
Mu Nuannuan gritted her teeth and said, "Mu Tingxiao, you actually took Mu Mu to eat hot pot?"
"A small pot of clear soup for her."
"Then she said it was spicy?"
"She didn't eat anything spicy, she just tasted a little bit."
"Then eat it!"
“…”
Mu Tingxiao stopped talking, and the phone became quiet for a while.
After a while, Mu Tingxiao said again: "When will you come back?"
After he finished speaking, he added hastily: "Mumu misses you."
"you do not miss me?"
Mu Tingxiao: "Heh."
Mu Nuannuan felt a little guilty when he was like this.
She ran out by herself, but now things are not progressing at all. Instead, she is trapped in a mystery, and she wants to ask Mu Tingxiao for help.
Why are you so useless
This time, it was Mu Tingxiao who spoke first: "Have you met Li Jiuheng?"
"No, I checked in the villa last night and found that apart from the servants and bodyguards, Li Jiuxuan was the only one here. Li Jiuheng was not found for the time being. Also, last night..."
She was about to talk about the call she received from Li Jiuheng last night, but Mu Tingxiao suddenly asked in a sinister tone: "You and Li Jiuxuan live together? He is the only one?"
Mu Nuannuan: "..."
The next moment, Mu Tingxiao's furious voice came: "Mu Nuannuan, before tomorrow night, I want to see your people in Huyang City, otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"
