Marriage involuntarily

Ouyang Muchen looked at her with pity: "No one forced him to gamble."

"Ha...haha..." Mother Zhou smiled, tears falling from her eyes.Yes, Ouyang Muchen will not force him to gamble, Zhu Bo is addicted to gambling, as long as he is induced a little, why can't he get the bait?
But with this gamble, he risked the lives of his family.

"Ouyang Muchen, just tell me what you want me to do." Zhou Ma sat there with a sad expression, and there was deep despair in her tired voice.

I'm sorry... Wan Qing, Zhou Ma still failed to protect you after all.

There was a boring variety show on the TV, Ning Wanqing was sitting on the sofa watching boredly, but she didn't know where her mind had drifted away.

This was the second day after she was arrested, and her life was still the same as before, she couldn't see anyone, she couldn't leave this ward, once again, she became Ouyang Muchen's prisoner.

I don't know what happened to Zhou's mother.She asked Ouyang Muchen, and he always told her that Zhou's mother was very good and she didn't need to worry about it.But she didn't believe it, his bottomless eyes made it impossible to guess whether he was telling the truth or not.

There were faint footsteps outside the door.Is Ouyang Muchen here again?

She didn't want to talk to him, so she lay down and pretended to be asleep.

The door was opened, and a footstep approached from a distance, and finally stopped in front of her.

A gaze has been lingering on her face, she can feel it, but she doesn't feel afraid, because that person's gaze is warm and familiar...

who is it?

She suddenly opened her eyes.

"Mom Zhou!" she exclaimed in surprise.Can't help but sit up, eyes quickly looked at her.

Zhou's mother was still as usual, wearing simple but absolutely clean and spotless clothes, her hair was neatly combed, and there was a gentle smile on her round face.

"Mother Zhou, why are you here? Are you okay? Did Ouyang Muchen make things difficult for you?" She hurriedly asked a series of questions.

Mother Zhou replied with a smile: "I went back to visit my granddaughter. The young master sent someone to say that you had returned. I was nervous about you, so I hurried over. Wanqing...are you okay?"

"I..." Ning Wanqing thought of the escape she had hoped for, and the various insults she suffered after being found by Ouyang Muchen, and wanted to throw herself into Zhou Ma's arms and cry loudly, but, But suddenly, he couldn't bear to let this person who cared about him feel sad for him again.So he slowly withdrew the tears that almost came out of his eyes, eased his choked voice, and carefully showed a smile that would not look too deliberate, "I'm fine, Mom Zhou, don't you think I'm fine now?"

Mother Zhou opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't say it after all.She stretched out her hand to stroke Ning Wanqing's soft long hair, lowered her eyes, hiding the pity that surged from the depths of her heart.

She watched Ning Wanqing grow from a little doll carved with jade into a beautiful and delicate girl, and then into a slim girl, a gentle and noble lady, she knew the truth hidden under every expression of hers Intent, better able to understand her inner voice hidden behind her smile, she can't lie to her.

She didn't know what Ouyang Muchen did to his wife who was trying to defect, but she knew that it must be a terrible thing that almost broke Ning Wanqing.

But there was nothing she could do.On the contrary, because of her unfulfilling son, now she has to start doing something that will deeply hurt Ning Wanqing.

She sighed silently in her heart, raised her head, her face was full of concern: "My good girl, it's as long as you're fine... as long as you're fine."

With Zhou Mama by her side, Ning Wanqing's life became less difficult.She can eat all kinds of delicacies cooked by Zhou's mother every day, and as long as Ouyang Muchen doesn't show up, she can also enjoy short-term happiness in this small cage.

Today is her 24th birthday.

Zhou's mother wrote down all kinds of ingredients that needed to be prepared early in the morning, and handed them to the guards outside, asking him to send someone to buy them.Ning Wanqing knew that she was going to have a big feast today, so she felt extraordinarily relaxed.

At noon, Ouyang Muchen brought over a large bouquet of white and fragrant lilies. Ning Wanqing originally liked lilies the most, but because they were sent by Ouyang Muchen, she always felt uncomfortable in her heart. Mom helped throw it into the trash can.

Zhou's mother smiled and said: "People are wrong, but flowers are right. Such a beautiful flower has worked so hard to bloom. I just want to make you smile. How can you throw it in that dirty place to pollute it? If Hua knew that you hated it so much, I'm afraid she would cry silently."

Ning Wanqing was amused by Zhou's mother's words, and the flowers were not so annoying anymore, she took them and put them in the vase by the window, and immediately the whole room was full of vitality because of the freshly picked bouquet -stand up.

Lunch was the same as usual, Zhou Ma had to wait until evening for the carefully prepared dishes, because Zhou Ma said that Ning Wanqing was born at eight o'clock in the evening.

The two of them couldn't go out, and there was nothing else to do except celebrate their birthday, so they spent the whole day chatting.

This day was extraordinarily long and joyful, because my heart was full of anticipation, so every moment was filled with anticipation. Years later, every time Ning Wanqing recalled the situation of this day, she always seemed to be able to see through that layer of dazed celebration. In the shadow of tragedy.

The dishes that night were exceptionally rich, and Ning Wanqing could smell the aroma outside and knew that Zhou Ma must have cooked her favorite dishes.

Later, dishes were brought to the table one after another, and as expected, there was not one dish that Ning Wanqing hadn't missed.Even if the vegetables were not in season, Mama Zhou managed to get the freshest and best tasting ones.

Mother Zhou even prepared a bottle of red wine.A variety of exquisite dishes, and crystal clear red wine glasses under the lights.

Even if there are only two people, it creates a lively atmosphere.

"Mother Zhou, I feel like I have really become the Empress Dowager Cixi!" Ning Wanqing said while leaning on Mother Zhou with a smile.

She drank a small amount of red wine, her face was slightly red, and her eyes were not clear, but her expression was indeed extremely happy.

Mother Zhou smiled and rubbed her hair.His loving eyes kept staring at her, as if he couldn't get enough of her.

"Mum Zhou, Wan Qing feels so happy to have you here..." She said with a slight smile, then picked up the goblet again, "Mum Zhou, let's toast!"

Zhou Ma and Ning Wanqing clinked glasses, but only took a sip from the rim of the glass, and then watched Ning Wanqing drink down the small half glass of red wine.

Her pupils contracted slightly, because of nervousness, or other...

A tall man opened the door and walked in.

"You...why are you here?" Ning Wanqing looked at the person in surprise, and what she did next was far beyond their understanding.

"Brother... Wan Qing has been waiting for you for a long time, and thought you would not come..." She stood up unsteadily, and threw herself into Ouyang Muchen's arms.

Zhou Ma watched quietly, she understood that Wan Qing was already drunk at the moment.

Ouyang Muchen remained expressionless, and took Ning Wanqing to sit down at the table.

"How much did you drink?" He asked Zhou's mother.

"Two cups." Zhou Ma replied lightly.Ever since Ouyang Muchen came in, she had restrained all her smiles.

"Brother, why are you so straight-faced towards Mother Zhou?" Ning Wanqing, who was drunk, asked curiously.

Ouyang Muchen said, "Call me by my name."

"Huh?" Ning Wanqing opened her eyes wide, "Brother... what did you say?"

Ouyang Muchen had a patient expression on his face.Obviously, he hated Ning Wanqing calling him "brother".

He would remind him uncontrollably of what a pathetic double he was.

Even Ning Wanqing's smile this night and the hug that surprised her belonged to that person.

It has nothing to do with myself.

"Wanqing, the food is cold, eat it quickly." Zhou Ma said, picking up a lot of vegetables and piled them into Ning Wanqing's bowl.

Ning Wanqing tilted her head and said, "Why don't you eat?"

"Well, let's eat too." Zhou Ma picked up a chopsticks dish and brought it to her mouth.Ning Wanqing turned her head to look at Ouyang Muchen again.

Ouyang Muchen looked at Zhou's mother, and picked up the same chopsticks of green vegetables under the gesture of the other's eyes.

But Ning Wanqing didn't notice this.

"Brother...Mum Zhou...Am I drunk? I'm so dizzy..." She stretched out her hand and tapped herself on the head.

Zhou Ma put down her chopsticks and looked at her calmly: "Then go to sleep for a while, Wan Qing."

"But... I don't want to go to bed so early, I..." She swayed, and with a "snap", the chopsticks fell from her hands.

She looked at her hands in confusion: "I... I can't use my hands..."

Mother Zhou couldn't bear to turn her head away.

In an instant, Ning Wanqing seemed to understand something.

It's not the wine...it's not the wine.

It's a dish...

She turned her head and looked at Ouyang Muchen in a daze.

He looked at her indifferently, as if waiting for something.

She stood up almost subconsciously, and staggered towards the door...

"Wan Qing...!" Mother Zhou let out a scream.

Ning Wanqing closed her eyes and fell back silently, her long hair drawing an arc in the air.

The man stretched out his arm and firmly caught her unconscious.

She lay quietly in his arms, with her long hair brushed back, revealing her smooth cheeks, because she drank some red wine, her delicate little face was dyed as charming as a rose.

She specially wore a loose white dress today, and fell asleep peacefully, like an angel who had fallen into the mortal world.

Ouyang Muchen looked at her obsessively for a while, restrained himself from wanting to rub her into his arms, bit her slightly parted lips fiercely, picked her up and walked out.

Zhou Ma stood up and looked at Ouyang Muchen tremblingly.

"You did a good job." Ouyang Muchen looked at her coldly, a cruel smile appeared on his handsome face, "When Wanqing wakes up, she will definitely be very grateful to you."

"You...Ouyang Muchen! If you hadn't threatened me with the lives of my whole family, how could I have hurt Wanqing?!" Mother Zhou said angrily.

"That only shows that in your heart, she is not as good as your family." Ouyang Muchen looked down at the middle-aged woman whose chest was heaving violently, "Why, am I wrong?"

He carried Ning Wanqing to the operating room, where Xie Yao was already waiting.
