Si Zheng colluded with Gu Chengfeng to conceal Mu Xiao's illness, and originally wanted to fool Yan Mo.

The two of them were still a little apprehensive, wondering if Mu Xiao would ask some sharp questions to expose their lame tricks.

So Si Zheng always paid attention to Mu Xiao's expression, and if Mu Xiao reacted, he would stop immediately.

Mu Xiao thought carefully about Gu Chengfeng's two words, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

That expression was fleeting and disappeared so quickly that Si Zheng thought he was hallucinating.

Mu Xiao said in a deep voice, "Repeated illness? No wonder I feel dizzy and headache these two days."

Hearing what he said, Yan Mo's heart rose: "Is it hurting again? Why didn't you tell me?? Is it hurting badly? Are you feeling uncomfortable now?"

After speaking, regardless of other people in the office, Yan Mo came over to do Mu Xiao's head massage.

Although he couldn't see it, but hearing Yan Mo's anxious voice, Mu Xiao felt sweet in his heart.

The actions of these two people were so interesting that Si Zheng and Gu Chengfeng were dumbfounded.

Because Mu Xiao still needed to take medicine, Yan Mo went out. As soon as she left, Si Zheng immediately closed and locked the door of Gu Chengfeng's office.

"Honestly, how much can you see now??"

Mu Xiao chuckled, "How do you know I can see it?"

Gu Chengfeng picked up a small flashlight, turned it on and shook it in front of Mu Xiao's eyes: "Tell me the truth."

Mu Xiao raised his hand to cover his forehead, without the slightest embarrassment of being exposed by others: "It's a bit eye-catching, take it away for me quickly."

Si Zheng couldn't help being rude: "You can see it??"

"No, I can sense the light source. Occasionally, when the light is sufficient, I can see blurred shadows, that's all."

Gu Chengfeng carefully recorded Mu Xiao's condition on the computer, and said with a slight smile, "You don't know how to be sympathetic, and when Miss Renyan heard that your condition is not improving, the circles of her eyes are red!"

Mu Xiao was taken aback, and his smile disappeared instantly: "Is she crying?"

His reaction did not escape the eyes of Si Zheng and Gu Chengfeng, they both looked at each other and smiled.

Obviously caring about others, but pretending to be cool, and talking about non-marriageism, who are you lying to?
Si Zheng didn't have the patience of Gu Chengfeng, he played tricks with Mu Xiao, and even made indirect indirect remarks.

He went straight to the topic: "What's the matter, do you have any plans to coax people to stay by your side?"

"It's nothing, I just feel that getting along with her is pretty good." Mu Xiao's voice was brisk, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

It's just that his words are a bit embarrassing.

Si Zheng punched Mu Xiao firmly on the shoulder: "Hey! How do you talk?? What does it mean to get along well? If you are not interested in people, why are you so ambiguous?"

Mu Xiao was stunned: "Ambiguous? Do I have one?"

Gu Chengfeng took a sip of tea, and put down the teacup slowly: "If someone else did something like this, then we wouldn't think too much about it. But if it happened to you, it would be ambiguous."

When did I ever see Mu Xiao whispering to a woman, such adjectives as gentle and considerate are also insulated from Mu Xiao.

Anyway, Mu Xiao was surrounded by old men, and everyone was used to him not having friends of the opposite sex. What's more, the incident that happened that year had a great impact on Mu Xiao, and everyone almost thought that he would die alone.

At this moment, Yan Mo appeared.

Then Mu Xiao seemed to be a different person, his speech and behavior were not the Mu Xiao that Si Zheng and the others were familiar with.

Si Zheng and Gu Chengfeng are both experienced people, how could they not see Mu Xiao's careful thinking? ?

"Don't deny it, you actually have feelings for Yan Mo. Otherwise, why did you only allow Yan Mo to stay by your side after you have met so many women before? Don't tell me such nonsense as taking credit for merit, I I bet, if it wasn't for Yan Mo, you would have turned her down if it was another woman."

As expected, Si Zheng was the person who knew Mu Xiao best, and he told the truth in a few words.

Mu Xiao's smile faded a lot, and he slowly leaned back on the chair: "I don't deny that she is different from other women, but I don't plan to have a relationship with anyone. I... guess this will be the case in this life, I don't want to Who's the drag?"

No one can remove the shackles of the soul.

Even he himself can't forget the past, he is a sinner...

If it weren't for him, other people's families wouldn't be ruined, if it wasn't for him, others wouldn't have to be widowed, if it wasn't for him, others wouldn't be born without a father.

All kinds of things are like an invisible mountain, pressing down on Mu Xiao's heart.

He felt that people like him did not deserve happiness, love?
But a dream.

Whenever he thinks about the past, Mu Xiao will suffer from insomnia, even if he falls asleep smoothly, he often has nightmares and wakes up in a cold sweat.

The quality of sleep is not good, so the requirements for the environment are particularly high.

This is why Mu Xiao's bedroom has a good sound insulation effect.

He had to be in a room with no light coming in and wear a blindfold to barely fall asleep.

Isn't the blackness of that room the true portrayal of his heart?
Both Si Zheng and Gu Chengfeng knew what Mu Xiao's concerns were, and they also knew why he was unwilling to contact the opposite sex and start a relationship.

But it has been several years since that incident, and seeing Mu Xiao still entangled in the same place, the two of them felt very uncomfortable.

To put it bluntly, it wasn't Mu Xiao's fault, although the incident was caused by him.

But whoever was in that position would have made the same choice, but unfortunately, the one who was rescued was Mu Xiao.

The shackles of morality and conscience have been with Mu Xiao for so many years, making Mu Xiao feel that even striving for happiness is disrespectful to the deceased.

Mu Xiao is very shrewd and wise, but he is surprisingly paranoid about this matter.

Si Zheng persuaded Mu Xiao more than once to let him go, follow his heart and live a more comfortable life.

But Mu Xiao refused, he insisted on treating himself cruelly, as if only in this way could he feel better.

With Yan Mo now, I don't know how much she can change Mu Xiao. Both Si Zheng and Gu Chengfeng are looking forward to the day when Mu Xiao comes out of the cage.

Yan Mo knew that Mu Xiao had been taking medicine.

She cleaned Mu Xiao's bedroom every day, so she naturally saw the medicine in the drawer of the bedside table, and those medicines were decreasing every day.

Two bottles, both with labels on them.

In addition to the name of the medicine, there are also ways to take it, one is an antidepressant and the other is a sleeping pill.

Several times, when the words came to her lips, Yan Mo held back abruptly.

She really wanted to ask Mu Xiao, what had he experienced, that he could live like a normal person only by relying on drugs?
Another time, Yan Mo couldn't sleep, and carried Mu Xiao's astronomical telescope to watch the sky at night.

When I turned my head by chance, I saw that Mu Xiao's balcony was a little scarlet, flickering, and there was a faint smell of tobacco in the air.

When cleaning the room the next day, I saw cigarette butts all over the balcony.

It was only then that Yan Mo found out that Mu Xiao was a smoker, but she had never seen him before, at least he had never smoked in front of her.

This man who looked strong and powerful during the day was extremely vulnerable at night.

As if after night fell, Mu Xiao took off the strong coat he had disguised, like a helpless child, hiding in a dark corner, quietly licking and licking his wound.

Many times, Yan Mo really wanted to hug Mu Xiao, let him lean on her shoulder, stroke his head lightly, so that he could have a relaxing sleep.

But where does she stand?

After Gu Chengfeng checked Mu Xiao, Yan Mo consciously turned on the lights when she returned home.

The light can stimulate Mu Xiao's visual nerves, so it's good for him to get used to it slowly, but Yan Mo started to make Mu Xiao stewed pork liver with goji berries again, which made Mu Xiao speechless.

"Yan Mo, pork liver can not only improve eyesight, but also replenish blood. I don't need this." Young Master Xiao protested awkwardly.

Yan Mo was drinking her seaweed and egg drop soup with relish, and said with a smile: "You don't need to drink it when you are well, good boy, drink it quickly."

With her delicate and soft coaxing, Mu Xiao's originally prepared speech was silenced just like that.

Well, this goji berry pork liver soup doesn't seem to be that bad.

Seeing Mu Xiao cooperate so well, Yan Mo is also very happy, after all, the fruits of her labor are cherished by others!

Watching Mu Xiao drink up the soup one gulp at a time, and even finish the food, Yan Mo's heart became hot, and she wanted to reward this obedient child.

"I'll bake you a light cheesecake later, okay? You haven't tried my cake yet."

Such a large built-in oven imported from Germany looks brand new, what a waste.

Mu Xiao raised his eyebrows: "You still do this?"

Yan Mo snorted arrogantly: "Of course, I know more."

"Well, you are quite capable, but you can't swim." Young Master Xiao slowly made up his knife, smiling very much.

Qi and blood surged in Yan Mo's chest, and a mouthful of old blood was almost spurted far away.

Forget it, since he is still a patient, I don't have the same knowledge as him.

After the meal, Yan Mo packed up the bowls and chopsticks, piled them in the sink, and started to make light cheesecakes.

Although Mu Xiao doesn't usually cook, there are all kinds of ingredients at home, including flour, cheese, and even white sugar.

Yan Mo checked the production date, it was very good, it was very fresh, and it was still within the warranty period, and Aunt Liu, the housekeeper, was quite conscientious.

It's not the first time Yan Mo has made light cheesecake, and she has already memorized the weight of various ingredients.

Skillfully follow the steps to make the cake batter, pour it into an oval non-stick mold, put it in a preheated oven, and wait for another hour to eat.

While waiting, Yan Mo also washed the dishes in the sink.

After a while, the rich aroma of cheesecake wafted from the oven, and Yan Mo couldn't help humming happily.

This taste also attracted Mu Xiao who was in the study upstairs. He never knew that sweets could be so tempting.

Yan Mo was about to put the washed dishes into the disinfection cabinet when suddenly the room was plunged into darkness and the power went out.

Still calm, she fumbled to open the disinfection cabinet, put the dishes in one by one, and arranged them.

But the freshly washed dishes were still water-stained and very slippery, and one was accidentally broken.

After the crisp sound, a shard scratched Yan Mo's foot, and she subconsciously took a step to the side, but she didn't expect another piece of porcelain to stick into her toe just like that.

"Ah!!" Fingers connected to her heart, Yan Mo couldn't hold back, and squatted down screaming in pain.

Mu Xiao was walking to the corner of the stairs, when he heard Yan Mo's cry, he couldn't help speeding up his pace: "Yan Mo, what's wrong?"

Yan Mo squatted on the ground, tears flowed from the pain, choked up and raised her voice: "The power went out, I broke the bowl, and was injured by the debris."

Upon hearing this, Mu Xiao immediately quickened his pace.

Yan Mo's trembling voice made him feel stuck, he walked all the way to the kitchen, and followed the voice to Yan Mo's side.

Mu Xiao bent down to help Yan Mo up, and the warm breath brushed against her ears.

"Don't cry, I'm here."
