camouflage amnesia

Two days before Christmas Eve, He Mu left Nancheng.

After the meeting, Mu Qingran passed by He Mu's office, unconsciously slowed down, and glanced habitually from the corner of her eye.

There were only empty tables inside.

She stopped, was in a daze for a few seconds, realized what she was doing, immediately looked away, and returned to her office.

"Mr. Mu, please sign for me." Su Li came in with a document.

"Okay." Mu Qingran replied.

"Mr. Mu, Mr. He said two days ago that he wanted to promote paperless office and respond to the government's call for low-carbon office." Su Li said while she was signing.

Mu Qingran subconsciously smiled.

Obviously he was a crybaby when he was a child, but now he does many things like a veteran cadre.

Seeing the smile on Mu Qingran's face, Su Li was shocked.

What's the matter with this girl Huaichun's smile?

Didn't the two of them seem to dislike each other two days ago, why did they laugh like this just hearing Mr. He's name today? Is this the sour smell of love?

Mu Qingran didn't know the twists and turns in her mind, so she handed the document back to her and said, "I'll ask the technical department to upgrade the company's office system, so that you can use the electronic version in the future and send it to me directly from the system for signature." .”

Now the technology for identifying electronic signatures is also very advanced, cloud storage services are very safe and convenient, and some internal documents can be completely replaced by electronic files.

Technology companies should indeed be ahead.

"Alright Mr. Mu." Su Li raised his eyelids to glance at Mu Qingran, and said intentionally, "The second day when Mr. He is away, I miss her."

Mu Qingran: "Director Su hasn't worked enough recently?"

"Enough is enough, I'll go to work first." Su Li slipped away with the documents in his arms, and after he went out, he curled his lips, he was still cute as Xiaohe.

Mu Qingran picked up the phone and opened the dialog box with He Mu. The content of the conversation was not much, mostly a few short words.

What He Mu said the most was just summoning her as a toy.

She clicked into the input box, hesitated for a moment, and then exited.

Then, put the phone lock screen aside.

He Mu picked up the phone, swiped his fingers back and forth, and switched between several pages aimlessly.

Suddenly, I received a WeChat message.

She clicked in right away.

...is pushed by the official account.

Don't you go to bed at 11 o'clock at night?Who reads this point-and-tweet article!

She didn't know what she was expecting either.

He Mu seemed to have a grudge against the mobile phone, so he threw it aside heavily and covered himself with a quilt to sleep.

The next day.

He Mu sat up and stretched.

It's been a long time since I slept so comfortably. It's nice to have heating.

She lifted the quilt and walked to the window barefoot. The morning sun was soft and warm on her body.

She squinted her eyes and took a deep breath, as if sunlight had a smell.

After washing, He Mu changed into thin and comfortable home clothes and went downstairs.

"My precious daughter hasn't had breakfast with daddy for a long time." Father He put down the newspaper in his hand, and the corners of his eyes wrinkled.

He Mu walked to the table and said with a smile, "I haven't seen such a rich breakfast for a long time."

"If you're not used to staying there, come back." Father He said, "Don't wrong yourself."

He Mu shook his head, "I want to exercise."

At this time, the doorbell rang at home, and the eldest sister and second brother came in together.

If it weren't for going to visit the grave together later, it would be difficult for the family to have the opportunity to have breakfast together.

"Sister Jinzhou, brother Jinhuai." He Mu smiled and greeted his brothers and sisters.

The time she spent with her brothers and sisters was not as long as that of Mu Qingran, and the feeling of strangeness when they met could never be erased.

He Jinhuai walked over, "It's been a long time, little girl, she's become pretty again." He held a bag in his hand, "Here, I'll send you a Christmas present."

"Thank you brother." He Mu followed.

In fact, He Mu is basically not a festival like Christmas, but since her brother gave him a gift, she still expressed that she was very happy.

He Jinzhou smiled warmly, "What should I do? I didn't prepare a gift for my sister."

"It's okay, I'm not a child anymore." He Mu spread out his palms, "Sister, just give me the money."

"You child!" He Jinzhou smiled and grabbed his sister's hand, leading her to sit down.

"Oh, I'm getting old, and I like the feeling of sitting together as a family." Father He showed a kind expression on his face, "In the future, the He Group will rely on you three brothers and sisters, you brothers and sisters , you have to take good care of your sister."

If they are an ordinary family, this may be a picture of a loving father and a filial son.But the four present here are very clear that He Jinzhou and He Jinhuai will definitely confront each other for the He Group one day in the future. Because of He Mu's young age, he will not directly confront her brothers and sisters, but everyone knows that she is now standing. It's on He Jinzhou's side.

He's father had high hopes for his second son, He Jinhuai since he was a child, but it is true that although his son is not bad, his reputation is not as high as his elder sister's.

As for the youngest daughter, because she looks very similar to her mother, he always prefers her.

He Jinhuai was the first to speak: "Actually, the second brother happens to have a lighter errand here, and the younger sister doesn't have to stay in a place like Nancheng."

He Jinzhou smiled, "I think the younger sister looks very good recently, it must be because the food there is very appetizing."

He Mu pursed his lips, "Sister Jinzhou, are you saying I'm fat?"

He Jinhuai smiled and said, "You're not fat at all, I think your little face is almost gone."

Father He picked up the chopsticks: "Okay, okay, let's eat first."

The elder brothers and sisters have already married, and now only He Mu lives at home often, and He's father usually uses breakfast time to go out to meet some partners or old friends, and he doesn't often have breakfast together.

At the dinner table, there are not so many parents to talk about, and the occasional conversation is also about the company.

After eating, the four of them went to the cemetery in two cars.

He Mu and He Jinzhou shared a car.

"Is everything going smoothly?" He Jinzhou asked.

"Yeah." He Mu nodded, "Although it's more difficult than expected, it should be manageable."

He Jinzhou: "In this society, it is very difficult for women to be recognized. You need to work harder to get a chance to compete on an equal footing. There is no room for mistakes."

He Mu didn't expect the eldest sister to say this suddenly, she always thought that the elder sister was in control of everything.

He Jinzhou held his younger sister's hand, took off the jade bracelet on his wrist, and put it on for her.

"This is not a gift, but a magic spell given to you by my sister." He Jinzhou said, "Sometimes people forget their purpose when they are in a comfortable place and around a comfortable person."

He Mu was startled, but couldn't fully understand what Elder Sister said.

He Jinzhou smiled slightly, "I haven't seen Qing Ran for a long time, has she changed much?"

When He Mu heard the elder sister mentioning Mu Qingran, a trace of stiffness flashed across his face. The elder sister did not know about the contract between her and Mu Qingran.

If the relationship between them is revealed, the eldest sister should be shocked.

"Sister Qingran..." He Mu is not used to this kind of address, "It doesn't seem to have changed much, she is very serious and focused on her work."

In fact, she didn't know how to answer this question. She realized more and more that the Mu Qingran she knew since she was a child should be different from the elder sister.

He Jinzhou nodded and didn't say much.

Maybe the younger sister doesn't know, some feelings cannot be hidden.

Trees in the north will lose all their leaves in winter.

The vegetation in the cemetery is all bare, making it even more desolate.

The three children, each divided the work, took a broom and a rag to clean and wipe the tombstone and its surroundings.

In fact, there are people cleaning here regularly, but tomb sweeping is a ritual for living people.

Father He put a handful of white roses in his arms in front of the monument.

"Xiaoqing, this is the fifth year since you left. Look, the children have grown up so much. They are all excellent, and I am proud of them."

"Mom, your daughter-in-law is pregnant with a second child, so I didn't let her come." He Jinhuai held an orange in his hand and smiled while peeling it, "I remember you used to love oranges very much. I want to build a mountain and plant a mountain of oranges for you."

He Jinzhou did not speak, and quietly arranged the offerings before the quilt one by one.

To her, her mother is the most special existence. Without her mother's teaching since she was a child, He Jinzhou would not be what she is today.

He Mu stood in front of the stele, looking at the small photo of his mother.

Time flies really fast.

In her memory, her mother was a childish person, sometimes with Mu Qingran, Mu Qingran was more like a parent.

She always thought that her mother should be carefree, but she never expected...

In winter in the imperial capital, the wind is very biting.

Spend a while outside and the exposed skin will be blown red.

After the sacrifice, Father He bowed with his three children and left here.

Not long after the He family left, another woman in a black coat came.

Mu Qingran came to the monument, moved the bunch of white roses, and put down a bouquet of white water lilies.

"Auntie, long time no see." She said.

Obviously, no one will respond.

Mu Qingran squatted down, touched the photo on the tombstone, the corners of her lips were slightly curved, "Auntie, in a few years, I will probably have more wrinkles on my face than you. Do you think it's because you don't want to grow old? Then I ran off to another world to enjoy myself."

There is no one else here, no other voices, Mu Qingran is no longer taciturn.

"Auntie, have you seen your parents? The three of you, you can fight the landlord now." Mu Qingran doesn't believe in a paradise after death, nor does she believe in reincarnation.

But with some imagination, facing death will not be so sad.

"Auntie, He Mu has grown up and looks very good." Mu Qingran said softly, "If you can see it, you will be very happy."

"If you can see it, can you also see that I am not that kind to her? It should be said that it is not good at all."

"Auntie, I miss you a little bit."

Mu Qingran had never said anything nasty to Lu Qing before, not even her own parents.

But not saying it doesn't mean she has no feelings for Aunt Lu.

Not seeing her all these years doesn't mean that she has been forgotten.

Mu Qingran stood up, her eyes were slightly red, and she turned and left before she shed tears.

He Mu sat in his mother's room and took out an old photo album.

Most of them are pictures of her when she was a child.

My mother likes to wear all kinds of small skirts for her, and sometimes she will wear ugly clothes. There are many dark photos of her childhood.

He Mu found a photo of himself holding a pocket money bag and smiling happily.

My mother said that she has been a money addict since she was a child. When she was catching Zhou, she went straight to the red hundred-dollar bills. How do children tell the difference.

Looking at the photo, He Mu remembered that her mother used to sigh while holding the envelope bag.

Because Mu Qingran always returned the pocket money she left beside the bed.

What money did Mu Qingran buy for those gifts that Mu Qingran gave her when she was a child?

He Mu inadvertently remembered the problem that he had neglected before.

The phone on the table vibrated.

Probably some kind of spam.

He Mu still picked it up and looked at it.

It was actually Mu Qing who dyed her hair.

[Toy: I heard from Su Li about the paperless office proposal. ]

He Mu typed "Oh" and was about to tease her habitually, but before typing a few words, his hand stopped.

If I replied immediately when I received a message, wouldn't Mu Qingran think that I was just waiting for her message.

It doesn't matter if you don't reply to such unimportant news.

He Mu locked the screen and continued to look through the photo album.

After Mu Qing dyed the message, he saw "typing..." displayed on the dialog box.

But 5 minutes passed, and no news came back.

Are you suddenly busy?

She pursed her lips, put down her phone, and planned to take a shower.

But after taking two steps out, he came back and picked up the phone, set it to strong reminder mode, and put it on the sink in the bathroom.

However, when I came out of the shower, the phone didn't move at all.

Mu Qingran looked at the phone screen, frowning.

Is it a bad signal, or is it broken?

Until she finished drying her hair and was about to go to bed, there was still no new news in the dialog box.

Mu Qingran put the phone on the bedside, turned off the light, and closed her eyes.

10 minute later.

Mu Qingran's hand stretched out from under the quilt, and the movement of holding the phone was a little irritable.

[Cool down tomorrow. ]

send.

She stared at the phone screen, this time there was not even the words "typing...".

Mu Qingran's breathing became a little heavy and short.

[put on more clothes. ]

After sending, I turned my phone to Do Not Disturb mode and put it in the drawer of the bedside table.

He Mu lay down after drying his hair, and saw two messages from 20 minutes ago.

It was Mu Qingran again.

After reading the content, she blinked and read it carefully again.

Is this hacked?

She clicked into the input box and spelled out: Is it me?

But after thinking about it, I deleted them all.

"What does it mean to wear more clothes? Do I usually not wear clothes?" He Mu read the words typed in the dialog box.

No, too many words.

"I have read it." He Mu said to himself, "This way, it should not cause any unnecessary misunderstanding."

She was satisfied with her reply.

But after it was sent out, it was as if it was dead.

"Shouldn't you reply with 'received' when you receive a message?" He Mu was annoyed on the phone, "Do you understand workplace etiquette?"

She locked her phone and threw it aside.

I was a little tired during the day, and fell asleep as soon as I hit the pillow.

……

Mu Qingran rolled over on the bed a few times, opened the drawer of the bedside table, and took out her cell phone.

There is a new message.

The corners of her mouth twitched.

[He Mu: I have read it. ]

Mu Qingran gritted her teeth, and wrote on the dialog box with her fingertips: "Why don't you add Zhen in front?"

But after thinking about it, I deleted it again.

[The company has a lot of things to do, Mr. He, please come back to work as soon as possible. ]

delete.

[When will you return to the company? ]

Mu Qingran looked at the words on the screen and felt something was wrong.

Long press, withdraw.

She directly quit the social software and locked her phone into the small dark room again.

……

On the morning of the second day, He Mu picked up his phone and took a look, but there was still no information.

"Oh!" She sneered, "I don't know how to do a full set of seducers, my attitude is not positive, and I have a problem with my thinking!"

There are still two days until New Year's Day, and He Mu hasn't come back yet.

Sitting on the swivel chair in the study, Mu Qingran looked at the sandalwood box on the table with empty eyes.

After a while, she raised her hand to pick it up, opened it, and took out the watch inside.

Red, such a flamboyant color, she seldom wears on her body.

But she still wore this watch for 5 years.

Until the previous car accident, the dial was broken, and she sent it to be repaired.

She didn't know why she was wearing it all the time, maybe because she just lacked an object to tell the time.

After receiving this gift, she also returned the gift.Since it is exchanged at equal value, wouldn't it be a waste not to wear it.

Mu Qingran thought about it, and unknowingly, took out the watch and put it on his wrist.

Put it on, take it off, put it on again, take it off again...

Repeated many times, she didn't know what she wanted to do.

Finally, she put the watch back in the box.

The day before the New Year's Eve, He Mu finally boarded the flight from the imperial capital to Nancheng.

She originally wanted to enjoy the heating for a few more days, but there was news from Mayor Zhang that she could meet up if she had time.

She wants to prepare in advance.

Coincidentally, I also ran into Senior Sister Wang Manjing on the plane.

"Among so many flights, we are able to get on the same plane, in the front and back rows. My junior and I are really destined." Wang Manjing's eyes were full of smiles.

"Is senior sister going on a business trip to Nancheng again?" He Mu asked.

I didn't hear that there was a meeting with the senior sister's company, it should be for other things.

"Well, our company is going to open a branch there. I'll go check it out." Wang Manjing said.

In recent years, the rent cost and personnel cost in the imperial capital have been getting higher and higher, and many companies have begun to deploy inland.As long as the benefits are attractive enough, many technical talents are still willing to evacuate the imperial capital, after all, the cost of living there is really high.

Just as He Mu was about to speak, his phone vibrated.

[Toy: Which flight? ]

She murmured in her heart: "Mu Qingran asked this, is he coming to pick me up?"

There is nothing to be courteous, and it is either a traitor or a thief.

But before she could think about it, the stewardess came over and said, "Ma'am, the plane is about to take off, please turn off your phone or switch it to flight mode."

"Okay." After He Mu answered, he quickly issued the flight number in the dialog box, and then switched modes.

Because it was a morning flight, He Mu was not tired, and was reading with a book.

Wang Manjing sat diagonally behind He Mu, and could only see a hair top.

But it was enough for her to see God.

In fact, she always had a premonition that the future would be long, and she would have no chance until the school girl returned to the imperial capital.

She always felt that although the junior girl was not obvious, she still seemed to be different to Mr. Mu.

However, even knowing this, she still couldn't give up so easily.

The school girl is like an angel to her.As long as you see the angel's smile, even in the darkest moment, there seems to be a beam of light shining in front of you.

Wang Manjing was still dazed, the plane landed and stopped.

"Senior sister, how can you leave later?" He Mu turned around and asked.

It happened to meet Wang Manjing's unfocused gaze.

He Mu was startled for a moment, hesitating whether to ask again.

In fact, she didn't want her senior to have any expectations.

She can't do things like flirting with someone she likes.

"I haven't called a car yet, if it's convenient for my junior, can you give me a ride?" Wang Manjing didn't want to waste any chance to interact with her junior.

"Okay." He Mu smiled politely and distantly.

Seeing that smile, Wang Manjing probably guessed what the school girl was thinking.

But she hasn't tried her best yet, and she doesn't want to admit defeat easily.

He Mu and senior sister pushed the luggage out of the customs together, and saw the thin figure outside the fence at a glance.

He actually came to pick her up.

It seems that there is still some progress.

When Mu Qingran saw He Mu and Wang Manjing next to her, an uncontrollable emotion entangled her heart.

She clutched the bag in her hand, trying not to show any strangeness.

"Why is Mr. Mu here?" He Mu raised his chin slightly and raised his airs.

Since Mu Qingran wants to play tricks, it's not a loss for her to enjoy herself anyway.

"Does this question need to be answered?" Mu Qingran said.

"Need." He Mu was straightforward.

"Come to pick you up." Mu Qingran turned to Wang Manjing, "I didn't know Mr. Wang was here."

After finishing speaking, he turned his gaze back to He Mu, "Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

He Mu thought to himself, these words sounded strange, as if there was a strong smell of vinegar.

But Mu Qingran would be jealous, and she didn't quite believe it.

"I have a lot of fate with my junior, it's a romantic encounter on the plane." Wang Manjing said with a smile, "I don't think Mr. Mu is as lucky as me, he came here specially to pick up my junior."

Make no secret of your aggression.

The two people looked at each other and stopped talking.

Inexplicably, a picture of two western cowboys pointing their guns at sunset appeared in He Mu's mind.

Is this what it feels like to be scrambled for?

I have to say that seeing Mu Qingran deflated, I feel very good.

"The driver came to pick me up too." He Mu stabbed Mu Qingran.

Mu Qingran pretended not to hear this, pulled He Mu's suitcase, and said as he walked, "The car is parked in the underground parking lot."

He Mu put his hands in his pockets and asked, "Mr. Mu doesn't have to go to work today?"

Mu Qingran said: "It's also one of the boss's jobs to catch the vice president who misses the job."

Astonishment flashed across He Mu's eyes. After not seeing him for a few days, the straight man became humorous.

The three of them came to the parking lot, and when they got in the car, He Mu hesitated for a moment, and sat in the co-pilot anyway.

They were all adults, so she wouldn't disregard etiquette to make Mu Qingran hurt her face.

As soon as He Mu closed the car door, Mu Qingran approached sideways and helped her fasten her seat belt.

Then, he backed away very naturally, and asked, "Which hotel does Mr. Wang stay in? I'll see you off first."

"Carbin." Wang Manjing replied.

He Mu joked: "Cabin Hotel, Xiao Qi said that you can give me a 8% discount, and I want a discount for my sister?"

The eyes of the person in the driver's seat and the person in the back row sank at the same time.

The temperature in the car seemed to drop a few degrees.

He Mu folded his arms and shut up.

……

After seeing off Wang Manjing, He Mu gave Mu Qingran a sideways look, and said, "Mr. Mu is so courteous to me, I will suspect that you have a crush on me."

"I was just passing by the airport, and I happened to meet Mr. He and Mr. Wang." Mu Qingran said, "It was a not-so-romantic encounter."

He Mu looked at Mu Qingran with a serious expression, not like he was making up nonsense at all.

She raised her eyebrows, "Could it be that Mr. Mu hasn't seen me for a few days and thinks I'm crazy?"

This was a casual remark, but Mu Qingran didn't refute it.

Although, did not admit it.

It was obviously the same as before, and there was no response, but it seemed to be different.

He Mu shook off those messy thoughts in his head.

She was afraid that if she thought about it again, she would really feel that Mu Qingran was in love with her.

"I made a reservation for a restaurant tonight." Mu Qingran said.

"What restaurant?" He Mu was puzzled.

Mu Qingran: "Today is the last day of this year."

He Mu: "I know."

So?

"Mr. He, go home and change your clothes before going to work." Mu Qingran said, "I'll wait for you downstairs."

What is this all about?

He Mu couldn't understand more and more what Mu Qingran was thinking about all day long, and her thoughts jumped so much that she couldn't keep up.

Mu Qingran parked the car and pressed the button to open the trunk.It really meant waiting for her downstairs.

The co-author helped her pull the box just now, just as a show for the senior sister?

He Mu got out of the car and slammed the door hard.

When the person disappeared from sight, Mu Qingran opened the handbag and took out a watch from it.

Finally, put it back on.
