Shen Muzhi immediately answered the phone, "What happened?"

Li Ning on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, she should have asked Shen Muzhi the question.

"That...is me." Li Ning hesitated.

Hearing that it was Li Ning, Shen Muzhi was also stunned for a moment, but when he heard her voice sounded like something was wrong, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Why did you use this phone to call?"

Similarly, Li Ning also felt relieved when he heard Shen Muzhi's voice on the phone was fine.

"I left my cell phone in the room, so I'm too lazy to go upstairs to get it." Li Ning said incredulously.

The housekeeper was still waiting anxiously, Li Ning smiled at him, and mouthed: "It's okay."

Although he didn't know exactly what happened just now, seeing Li Ning's smile relieved, the housekeeper stopped talking, smiled and nodded and left.

"I just saw that Mu Xing was a little strange and his face was ugly, so I was a little worried...I was worried about him, so I wanted to ask if you knew what happened."

Of course Shen Muzhi knew about it, but it was not suitable for Li Ning to know about it, so he paused for a moment and found an excuse.

"It's about the branch." Then he was afraid that Li Ning would be worried, so Shen Muzhi continued, "It's not very important, you don't have to worry about it."

As soon as Li Ning heard that it was a business matter, Li Ning didn't ask any further questions, and only said: "It's fine as long as it's nothing serious. By the way, are you coming back tomorrow? I happen to be fine, so I can pick you up."

"I still have some things to deal with here, maybe I won't be able to go back tomorrow." Shen Muzhi replied.

"Oh, that's it." Li Ning responded casually, and there was a sense of loss in her tone that she didn't even notice.

Shen Muzhi raised the corners of his lips silently, "It's getting late, you should go to bed early."

Li Ning originally wanted to talk, but when he heard someone else's voice from Shen Muzhi's side, he thought that he might be busy, so he couldn't bother him anymore.

"Well, you go to bed early too, good night."

"OK, good night."

After hanging up the phone, Li Ning couldn't help pressing the corners of his mouth. He pulled his shoes and looked listless. He poured himself a glass of milk and drank it without bothering to heat it. upstairs.

Standing at the stairs, she suddenly turned around and looked, and suddenly found that the huge villa was deserted.Although everything needed for daily life is available, and there are still servants sleeping in the side room downstairs, Li Ning still has a sense of loneliness as if there is no one there.

After returning to the room, Li Ning looked at the same room as usual, but Li Ning felt empty.

And only then did she realize that there would be such a big difference between having one more or one less Shen Muzhi in the family.

Usually at this time, Shen Muzhi would work alone in the study, and Li Ning was also like this now, alone in the room or bored, or holding the computer to check emails, or chatting on the phone with friends.

But even though she couldn't see Shen Muzhi normally, she knew that he was in the study a few rooms away, and even if she couldn't see him, she knew that there was someone there.

Li Ning sat on the sofa and frowned, then she couldn't help sighing, this feeling of emptiness made her a little unsure, whether it was because she liked to miss Shen Muzhi, or because she was used to having that person by her side, and suddenly If there is less, you will feel uncomfortable.

Li Ning thought for a while, and felt that the latter was more likely.And this idea made her feel better. After all, habits can be changed, and if one toy is missing, other toys can be used to make up for it.

But once you completely rely on and miss someone, your mind is no longer your own.Li Ning hates the feeling of being unable to control herself.

The next day, because he didn't have a good rest last night, Li Ning allowed himself to sleep in and didn't get up until noon, planning to go to the hospital after lunch.

While Li Ning was eating, Zhou Sisi called.

Li Ning thought that Zhou Sisi wanted to ask her out for dinner and afternoon tea again, so he answered the phone and asked with a smile, "What advice do you have?"

But instead of Zhou Sisi's usual brisk laughter, there was silence from the receiver.

Li Ning thought that the signal was disconnected, but she looked at the phone and it was still displayed as a call, she asked a little strangely: "Sisi?"

After a few more seconds of silence, Zhou Sisi's voice finally came, "Sister Ning, are you free?"

Zhou Sisi's voice was low and her tone was a little gloomy.

At the moment, Li Ning couldn't help but think of Shen Muxing's strangeness last night, so he tentatively asked: "Why is your voice like this? Is something wrong?"

"It's nothing, but I want to see you." Zhou Sisi still said gloomily.

"I'm at home, or tell me where you are, and I'll go find you."

"No need, I happen to be not far away, I will go to your house to find you later."
Before Li Ning could answer, Zhou Sisi hung up the phone first.

Li Ning held the phone and thought, last night Shen Muzhi said it was for the branch company, that's why Shen Muxing acted like that, but Zhou Sisi is so strange today, it's hard not to associate the two things.

But Li Ning didn't think too much about it, he just thought that at most it was just a quarrel between the young couple, and when Zhou Sisi came, she would just try to persuade her.

Sure enough, Zhou Sisi was not far away, and he would be there in ten minutes.

Li Ning had been waiting in the living room, and when he saw her, he got up and took a few steps forward to meet her. Seeing that Zhou Sisi seemed a little listless, he couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

"What's the matter?" Li Ning stepped forward to hold Zhou Sisi's hand, and asked with concern.

Zhou Sisi didn't say anything, she just dragged Li Ning to the balcony, "Sister Ning, let's sit there for a while."

The balcony on the first floor is actually a glass room. It was empty at first, but after Li Ning moved here, he liked the sunshine and the scenery of the courtyard, so he arranged the balcony, and now it is a place for the sisters to gather together. A place for whispers.

But Zhou Sisi dragged Li Ning there, and Li Ning realized that there must be something he didn't want to be heard by the housekeeper's servant.

After entering the glass room, Li Ning closed the door behind him. After the two sat down, Li Ning immediately asked, "Sisi, what happened? Did you quarrel with Mu Xing?"

Zhou Sisi's eyes drooped slightly, and she didn't respond when she heard the words. Li Ning couldn't tell from that look, whether she was thinking about something or acquiesced to Li Ning's words.

"If it's Mu Xing who bullies you, tell me immediately, and I'll teach him a lesson for you. If I can't do it, there's Mu Zhi. We're all for you." Li Ning shook Zhou Sisi's hand lightly, and comforted him.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Sisi shook her head, "We didn't quarrel."

"No quarrel?" Li Ning was even more confused.
