Sweet Wife Runs Away

Chapter 7 How good would it be if she was still here?

night.

Ning Xi sat on the deck chair on the balcony, with her legs curled up, her chin resting on her knees, looking at the sky.

Brother Shen was wrong.

In Dragon City, there are no stars to be seen.

With a blank sigh, Ning Xi tried to straighten out his thoughts, trying to figure out how he should go next.

"Knock knock knock!"

There was a knock on the door, Ning Xi was stunned for a moment before regaining consciousness, and walked over to open the door.

It was Xu Mushen. He was holding coffee in one hand and milk in the other. Under the light in the corridor, his handsome face seemed to have lost its usual coldness and appeared a little softer: "You said that you can't sleep in a strange place, and I Come and see, do you want to chat?"

Ning Xi nodded gratefully.

She really needed someone to talk to, and Xu Mushen, who made her feel at ease, was undoubtedly the best candidate.

The two sat on the deck chairs on the balcony.

Maybe it was the warm milk that calmed her down, and maybe it was Xu Mu's deep gaze that made her feel at ease. Ning Xi held the milk and told Xu Mushen about the half-dark and half-light world when she was young.

Talking about Yang Lu's love for her, talking about Bai Ningxin's company for ten years, talking about Yang Lu warming her like a mother after her mother passed away, talking about her accepting Yang Lu and Bai Ningxin as her family.

The subject changed, and she talked about the doubts that arose in her heart when she didn't sleep for two days and one night in the nursing home, and said everything she heard outside the study.

"Brother Shen, I really can't believe it, so many years of companionship and relationship, are they all fake?"

"At the time my mother was in poor health, it was always Yang...Yang Lu who accompanied me, took me to explore the world with hazy eyes, and taught me to paint everything beautifully with a brush. I...I really regarded her as my first love. Two mothers..."

"And Dad, I always thought we were the happiest family of three...but he was with Yang Lu very early and gave birth to a daughter older than me!"

"Brother Shen, what should I do..."

Ning Xi folded her arms around her chest, trembling uncontrollably.

Reason told her that Yang Lu's mother and daughter's kindness to her these years was all deceit, but she couldn't let go of the little warmth in her heart.

Even though, Yang Lu has already torn off the veil of warmth and exposed her fangs.

Xu Mushen reached out his hand hesitantly, and rubbed her hair across the table. "Xixi, let it go if you can't figure it out, and let time decide!"

Give it time?
It seems that this is the only way to go.

Ning Xi tilted her head and leaned her head on the table.

Next to him, the man's breathing sound was light and shallow, but the cool breath on his body lingered in this strange space, exuding a sense of tranquility, and Ning Xi fell asleep peacefully again without knowing it.

After a long time, Xu Mu got up and looked down at the sleeping girl.

It wasn't until the chill of the night came that he came back to his senses, carried Ning Xi back to the room, and put her on the bed.

He leaned on the head of the bed, gently stroking Ning Xi's eyelids with his big hands, his eyes were deep and long, as if through Ning Xi's eyes, through the years, he saw the girl with a bright smile and a flying spirit.

It would be great if she was still there.

If he had cared more about her back then, would the girl sleeping here be her now?

in case……

There are so many ifs in this world.

Xu Mu closed his eyes in deep pain, the familiar pain came to his brain again, twitching, like the tendons in his brain being fiddled with, making him restless.

Today is another sleepless night...

Fortunately, he is used to it.

His slender fingers gently pressed his temples, and Ning Xi's even breathing was inadvertently heard by his ears.Xu Mu was deeply surprised to find that the tumbling dark emotions in his heart gradually calmed down.

Xixi, did you send her to my side to comfort me?
A thought flashed in his heart, and Xu Mushen's brows and eyes were stained with a somewhat confused smile.

"Good night, Sissy."

He said softly, his eyes darkened.

Xu Mushen closed the door softly, and when he turned around, he saw Xie Jin standing at the corner of the corridor, poking his head.

"Eh? You came out, I thought you would stay..." Xie Jin immediately closed his mouth and made a gesture of zipping under Xu Mu's deep glance.

Xu Mushen knew Xie Jin's character of not being afraid of death just to watch a play, and he didn't bother to argue with him, so he looked at Chu Lian who was beside him with cool eyes.

Chu Lian immediately reported: "I have already contacted Li Wei, the main judge of "Huayu Cup", and handed over the evidence to him. Li Wei has a violent personality and cannot rub the sand in his eyes. I believe that after he knows the truth, Bai Ningxin and the participating People involved in this matter will not be able to get good results. After the approval, Ms. Ning's qualification for the semi-finals should be restored. According to Ms. Ning's design talent, she must be in the eyes of Li Wei, and she may even become Li Wei's student. .”

As Chu Lian said that, he laughed first.

As Xu Mushen's super assistant, he has already developed the habit of talking to himself in the face of the taciturn Boss.

"In addition, I have already finalized the dinner plan for tomorrow's lunch with Li Wei. The menu is set according to Miss Ning Xi's taste."

Xie Jin's eyes lit up, and he interjected enthusiastically: "Boss, it's only been a day, and you know Miss Ning Xi's taste like the back of your hand? Then you..."

The latter words choked back again.

Xu Mu turned around indifferently, and disappeared at the door of the bedroom.

In the corridor, only Chu Lian and Xie Jin are left, you look at me, and I look at you.

Originally, I wanted to find out what the boss thought about Ning Xi... But the look in the eyes of the boss just now... Instinctively told them, it's better to shut up.

Chu Lian frowned and looked in the direction where Ning Xi lived.

On the third floor, there are only two bedrooms in total, all of which are built according to the standard of the master bedroom.

One of the bedrooms has been vacant for a long time. It was originally reserved for another person. He thought that no one would ever live in it. He didn't expect the boss to let Ning Xi live in it so easily.

I don't know what the boss is planning...

What's more, the Boss met Ning Xi, whether it was a blessing or a curse!
