Chapter 243 To avoid suspicion

"Xianyu... don't go... don't abandon me and the child..."

"Salted fish, don't go."

"Salted fish! Don't go!"

Mu Qingcheng suddenly woke up from her sleep and sat on the bed gasping for breath.

Mu Qingcheng's eyes were filled with fear, and her pretty face was pale, as if she was extremely frightened.

There was a trace of tears in the corner of his eyes.

"Hey, Master Mu, are you awake?"

After lying in bed for a long time, Mu Qingcheng finally came to her senses when she heard a familiar voice.

It was only then that Mu Qingcheng discovered that a large area of ​​her back was wet.

Mu Qingcheng subconsciously looked outside the door in the direction of the sound, and saw Mu Xueer carrying in two casseroles, one large and one small. Her father Mu Zhan followed behind Mu Xueer, holding a thermos cup and a box of cut fruits in his hands.

"Wow, your Xianyu guessed it right. You woke up just as we brought the things up. That's awesome." Mu Xueer said in a slightly teasing tone.

Seeing Mu Qingcheng wake up, Mu Zhan finally felt relieved and showed a kind and gentle smile on his face: "Qingcheng, you're awake."

"Dad, Xue'er."

Mu Qingcheng looked around and found that this was not her room, not the eighteenth floor of the mountain town, nor the hospital ward, so she asked, "Where am I?"

"Dragon Group's Southern Headquarters." Mu Zhan replied.

Mu Qingcheng frowned slightly: "Why am I here?"

"It's hard to explain in just a few words. You just woke up, so take it easy and eat something first."

Mu Xueer put the things on the table next to her, took a towel from the side and put it on the lid, then opened the two casseroles.

An enticing fragrance immediately spread throughout the room.

Mu Qingcheng looked at one of the casseroles with some surprise: "Salted fish and eggplant casserole?"

"Well, your salted fish made it for you. He guessed you would wake up at this time, so he brought it over."

Mu Xueer scooped a bowl of white rice with a rice spoon, and then scooped a little salted fish and eggplant with juice with a small spoon, half white rice and half eggplant and salted fish. She blew it gently at her mouth and then handed it to Mu Qingcheng's mouth.

Facing her favorite meal, Mu Qingcheng turned her head slightly, looked at the thermos cup in Mu Zhan's hand, and asked, "What is this? Soup?"

Mu Qingcheng recognized the thermos as the one Xianyu used when he first brought her food.

At the same time, she also remembered that Xianyu seemed to have told her before that he would make soup for her and cook salted fish and eggplant stew for her after she woke up.

"Yes, it's chicken soup." Mu Zhan was a little surprised why Mu Qingcheng knew right away that there was soup in the thermos.

"Give me a drink first."

"it is good."

Mu Zhan unscrewed the thermos cup and handed it to Mu Qingcheng.

Mu Qingcheng blew on it and took a sip slowly.

Well, it suits her taste very well.

Both the saltiness and the strength of the soup are just right.

Mu Qingcheng used to be very picky about food, especially when it came to drinking soup and eating food.

Even if something is not to her taste, Mu Qingcheng will never take a second bite.

It seemed that only that dead salted fish in the world could make meals and soups that suited her taste.

After drinking some soup to warm up his stomach, Mu Qingcheng took the bowl from Mu Xueer and started eating.

A bite of white rice and a bite of salted fish, eggplant and a little juice.

Mu Qingcheng allowed these two things to meet in her mouth, but she would never mix them together and eat them.

As for why.

This might be her personal habit, and Mu Qingcheng herself couldn't tell why.

Seeing Mu Qingcheng drink soup before eating, Mu Xueer said with a smile: "Hey, uncle, I remember you didn't have the habit of drinking soup before eating~"

"It's all because of that dead salted fish. He always has the habit of drinking soup before eating, and I was led astray by him without knowing it." Mu Qingcheng complained subconsciously.

After eating a few bites, Mu Qingcheng remembered something and asked, "By the way, where is the dead salted fish?"

"He asked us to bring the food up, and then he left, as if something happened."

Mu Xueer said, "He seemed to be very busy during the time you were asleep. He took the children back to the mountain town and asked someone to take care of them first."

I just had a big dream. When I woke up, I didn’t see the dead salted fish. Mu Qingcheng felt a little lost and sad.

"By the way, how long did I sleep during this time?"

Mu Xueer said: "You have been sleeping for almost three days."

"What?"

Mu Qingcheng was completely shocked, her eyes widened, and her hands moved a little slower: "I slept for almost three days?!"

"Yes!"

Mu Xueer explained: "Your Xianyu said that you have been on edge for the past few years. You have put too much pressure on yourself. You haven't had a good rest physically and mentally, and you have overdrawn your energy."

"Once you let go of your obsession, your mental strength will dissipate instantly, just like the main beam of a house snapping. Your mind and body will not be able to bear it. You must rest well, otherwise you will easily suffer from the seventh day of the first month."

"I heard that Qin Xiaogong was like this."

Mu Qingcheng silently took a mouthful of rice, chewing it slowly, her beautiful eyes filled with mixed emotions.

Indeed, the tiredness that surged through her mind and body after she let go of her obsession was indescribable.

It is like a pole facing the storm. No matter how strong the wind blows or how hard it hits, it can still stand.

But once the storm is over and the sun shines again, it will break with a "click" without any warning as soon as a breeze blows.

"If your salty fish hadn't given you a medicinal bath these days, you probably wouldn't have woken up so quickly."

Mu Xueer poked Mu Qingcheng's pretty face, which was white with a hint of tender red, with her finger and said jealously, "Look, after soaking for a few days, your skin has become better than mine, and the dark circles you had before are gone."

You know, Mu Qingcheng used to be more beautiful than Mu Xueer. In the ranking of the four great beauties in Cantonese, Mu Qingcheng ranked first and Mu Xueer ranked third.

Later, because of working day and night, Mu Qingcheng's skin not only became worse, but also had some dark circles under her eyes.

So those people on the Internet said that in the future ranking of the four great beauties of Cantonese, Mu Qingcheng would probably be at the bottom, and Mu Xueer would have a chance to compete for the first place.

There's no way, her things are too powerful.

The reason why the second place winner was able to beat her was because Ah Hao disappeared during that period, and Mu Xueer became decadent and never paid attention to her image, so she dropped from second to third.

Now that Ji Haoran is back, Mu Xueer has swept away her slump and returned to the top. She even thought that she could get first place in this year's evaluation of the four great beauties.

Who knew that after taking a bath and sleeping for three days, this guy's appearance returned to its peak!

Well, you can’t get the first place.

Step on the second one.

"Oh, so that's how it is..."

Mu Qingcheng's face suddenly twitched: "Wait! You said, he gave me a medicinal bath?"

Mu Qingcheng looked down and realized that she had changed into pajamas a long time ago. Her pretty face immediately turned red.

Mu Xueer said as a matter of course: "Of course! Uncle Mu, don't you have any idea how heavy you are? You are so heavy, how can I lift you?"

After Mu Xueer said this, Mu Qingcheng's pretty face turned even redder.

In that case, doesn't that mean she was seen through by that dead salted fish?

Seeing Mu Qingcheng showing this rare shy blushing look, the outspoken and fast-driving Mu Xueer said jokingly: "You are blushing so much! What hasn't your salty fish seen in your early years? And you are still pretending..."

"Okay, okay, okay! Shut up, shut up!"

Mu Qingcheng's face was almost red to her neck. She stuffed a spoonful of rice and vegetables into Mu Xueer's mouth and forced her to shut up.

He also winked at her.

Mu Xueer then realized that there was a third person in the room. She looked at Mu Zhan with an embarrassed look and a smirk.

Mu Zhan turned his head and walked out, covering his ears with one hand, as if to say, "I can't hear you, you guys can do whatever you want."

Mu Zhan didn't come in again until Mu Qingcheng finished eating.

Mu Qingcheng ate the cut fruit while asking, "Oh, by the way, Dad, you haven't told me why I am in the Southern Territory Headquarters of the Dragon Group. What did I do? What happened during the time I fell asleep?"

Mu Zhan sat on a chair, sighed slightly, and said:

"Why else?"

"To avoid suspicion!"
