?? Two boxes of high-quality ancient tree black tea and a set of master-made Ru kiln tea sets.After tidying up, Xiao Ran handed the gift to Li Muze, and politely sent him outside the store.

??Jiang Rui went to pick up the car first, Li Muze was waiting on the side of the commercial street, Xiao Ran followed him in a blink of an eye, and stood beside him with a smile on his face.

??He turned his head and asked, "Xiao Ran, what's wrong?"

?? Xiao Ran scratched his head, his smile was festive: "Brother Ze, I have obtained a certificate with my partner, and we will make a date in a while. You want to come to my wedding."

?? Hearing this, Li Muze was very surprised: "So fast?"

??He remembered that Xiao Ran had just graduated not long ago, and there was indeed a gay man whom he had dated for three years. He did not expect to get things done so quickly.

??Xiao Ran blushed, and said embarrassedly: "I made an agreement with him a long time ago, we will get married and get a certificate after graduation."

"Okay." Li Muze patted him on the shoulder to express his congratulations, "Congratulations Xiao Ran, let me know when you choose a date."

?? "No problem." Xiao Ran stood upright like a promise to complete the character, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a car coming this way from the corner of his eye, and smiled close to Li Muze's ear, "I hope Brother Ze can take my sister-in-law with me on the day of my wedding." Let's join together."

??Subconsciously, Li Muze looked in Jiang Rui's direction, and quickly withdrew his gaze, saying, "It's unlikely."

??Xiao Ran rubbed his nose and said in a low voice, "Brother Ze, come on! Catch him early."

?? Li Muze frowned, and slapped him pretendingly: "Don't be silly, go back and look at the store, believe it or not, your brother will pay for it with your life."

?? Xiao Ran smiled nonchalantly, and walked towards the shop while waving his hands.

?? Not far away, Jiang Rui parked the car at the intersection, honked the car horn, and signaled Li Muze to go over.

??Getting closer, Li Muze opened the co-pilot's door and got in.

??At the same time, Jiang Rui hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, senior brother, it's inconvenient to turn around ahead, so I asked you to come over."

?? "..."

??What's so embarrassing?

?? Isn't it just a few more steps?

??Li Muze hated the other party talking to him in such a respectful manner. He quickly turned cold and muttered in his heart.

As everyone knows, the uglier his face is, the more afraid Jiang Rui becomes, and the more cautious he does things.

??The car drove out for a while and stopped at a red light.

?? It happened to be a traffic jam at this time, and the wide road was blocked. Jiang Rui simply turned off the fire and waited quietly. He took out a bottle of mineral water from the right side and handed it to Li Muze.

"Brother, do you want some water?"

??Li Muze moved his head, exuding a sense of inertia, took it slowly, unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip: "Thank you."

?? "You're welcome." Jiang Rui quickly replied.

?? Then there was a long period of silence. Li Muze is not very talkative. Jiang Rui knew that he likes to be quiet, so he didn't dare to stir up a topic at will.

??Touching the steering wheel, Jiang Rui sneaked a glance at him from time to time, his heart agitated and restless, and his face hesitated to speak.

??Li Muze quickly sensed the uneasiness of the people around him, so he couldn't help but sit up straight and asked, "Xiao Rui, how are you doing?"

??In an instant, Jiang Rui silently breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It's pretty good, where's the elder brother?"

"It's still the same." Li Muze responded casually.

??The atmosphere was a little active, and Jiang Rui raised a smile: "I heard that Brother Shi has successfully cooperated with Times Capital, and I haven't said congratulations yet."

"The contract hasn't been signed yet." Li Muze spoke bluntly, telling the truth.

?? But a flash of embarrassment flashed across Jiang Rui's face, which was indeed a bit of a bummer.

??Li Muze noticed it, and changed his words in time: "Appointment next week, basically confirmed."

"That's good." Jiang Rui resolved the embarrassment with a bright smile.

?? In fact, it was just his own embarrassment. Li Muze didn't think there was any problem at all.

??The roads are still tight, and traffic jams for a long time can easily make people feel irritable, but for Jiang Rui, he is more nervous and shy.

?? He touched the steering wheel and stared straight ahead. He thought of something, and suddenly his ears turned red, and his tone automatically softened: "Brother, I have something else to ask you."

?? Li Muze looked at him: "Say it directly."

??Taking a deep breath, Jiang Rui's face became even more rosy: "Brother, if it's convenient for you, can you inquire about Chu Chen's news when you see Third Young Master Chu?"

?? Hearing this, Li Muze's heart skipped a beat, and his hand on the side of the car door exerted a little force, but his face was very natural: "What's wrong."

??It is undeniable that Li Muze, who has always been calm and composed, just had a moment of anxiety.

??Jiang Ruidao: "I have already applied for annual leave. After the teacher's birthday is over, I may have to leave S city for a while."

?? Li Muze was puzzled when he heard this: "Where are you going?"

??Jiang Rui's voice is very low: "I want to find him."

?? "..."

??Li Muze didn't know if he had managed his expression well at this time, anyway, he wouldn't be a gentleman.

?? That sense of irritability surged into his heart again, he frowned and looked away, his tone as calm as possible: "Where do you want to find him?"

?? Jiang Rui said anxiously: "I heard that he is in China, and someone saw him in City A."

?? City A?

??A fart!Is it okay to be in his house!

?? Li Muze cursed inwardly, and said coldly, "Who did you hear that from? It's probably a liar."

??His gaze was deep, full of probing and coldness, which made Jiang Rui feel more fearful, and naturally lost his confidence: "I...I listened to my colleagues in the company..."

"He lied to you." Li Muze said bluntly.

??Jiang Rui was disappointed for a while, and then he was puzzled: "Brother, why are you so sure?"

?? Li Muze started talking nonsense without blushing: "I met Chu Yuan when we were talking about cooperation. Chu Chen should have gone abroad."

?? Hearing this, Jiang Rui was convinced, and his face was full of disappointment.

??But he didn't intend to give up, and persevered in pleading: "Brother, next time I see Third Young Master Chu, can I ask the exact location? Please."

?? Li Muze almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood: "If Chu Chen is not in China, do you still want to chase him abroad?"

??Jiang Rui's eyes lit up, nodded and said: "I am willing."

?? "..."

??Fine!Completely speechless.

?? Li Muze turned his face to look out the car window, took a deep breath: "Okay, I will try my best."

?? "Thank you, brother!" Jiang Rui cupped his hands in thanks, happy like a child.

?? Li Muze became more and more irritable, and was annoyed to death by Jiang Rui and Chu Chen for a while.

?? He waved his hand, obviously unwilling to continue this topic: "Go ahead, there is no traffic in front."

??Jiang Rui started the car, and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, brother, I'm sorry to trouble you."

??...It's a pity that Li Muze will never ask.

?? Forget it, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. After Chu Chen recovers his memory, everything will be back on track.

??At that time, he was still the same Li Muze from before, concentrating on his work, growing the NJ team, taking a little time to miss Jiang Rui, and Chu Chen...had nothing to do with him anymore.

??Since when did liking Jiang Rui become a habit, like spiritual sustenance, it seems that we don't have to be together, as long as this person is still around.

?? He turned his head to look at Jiang Rui, who was concentrating on driving. For five years, this man has hardly changed in terms of personality or appearance.

??Suddenly thought of something, he couldn't help but say: "Xiao Rui, take me to the company."

??Jiang Rui was startled: "Aren't you going home?"

?? Li Muze said: "The company still has something to do, and some documents need to be processed."

??Jiang Rui responded: "Okay."

??Turn the car around and head towards NJ.

??Li Muze carelessly rubbed his palms.

?? I was almost discovered by Jiang Rui.

?? Guilt is not enough, I just want to keep my promise. After all, I promised Chu Yuan not to say anything to the outside world, at least until after signing the contract.

??He found a good reason for himself, and felt at ease that there was nothing wrong with him.

??08:30 p.m.

?? When Li Muze returned home, Chu Chen was lying on the fence of the courtyard waiting for him.

??Now this season, the temperature difference between morning and evening is huge. I don’t know how long Chu Chen has been waiting, and his nose is flushed.

??Li Muze glanced at it, and said coldly: "Don't come out and wait in the future, you can rest early, I will often work overtime recently."

??Chu Chen lowered his eyes, gathered his five fingers, and clasped his palms hard, like a child criticized by his parents.

?? Li Muze relaxed his attitude: "Have you taken your medicine?"

?? "Brother, I ate it!" Chu Chen smiled instantly, stroking his stomach as if to ask for credit.

?? "Take medicine on time, please remember as soon as possible, hello, hello, hello everyone."

?? After finishing speaking, Li Muze walked upstairs, completely ignoring Chu Chen's reaction.

??There have been too many bad things recently, and he really can't face Chu Chen with 100% patience, especially after meeting Jiang Rui.

?? Shaking his head, he tried his best to shake off the troubles in his mind, and stopped thinking about those people who made him feel tight in his chest. He turned off the computer and mobile phone, and decided to go to bed early.

??Then Chu Chen leaned over again, obediently did not say a single unnecessary nonsense, and lay quietly on the lower side of the bed, curled up, looking very pitiful.

??Li Muze closed his eyes and sighed.

??Before going to bed, I kept silently chanting in my heart:

?? Don't be softhearted!

??Do not soften your heart!

??He is your rival in love, not your nobleman!

?? It's really evil. The more Li Muze warned himself like this, the more guilt he felt in his heart.

??Unbearable, he suddenly sat up. In the dark, he saw Chu Chen's huddled figure clearly, and asked, "Why don't you cover yourself with the quilt?"

??Chu Chen was still awake. Hearing the voice, he quickly raised his upper body, then stretched out his finger and pointed under his body, and whispered, "It's over there."

?? Li Muze was stunned for a moment, and quickly stretched his hand underneath. It was very soft to the touch. It was the blanket that Chu Chen covered his body every night. He picked it up and threw it to Chu Chen, with a bad tone: "Stupid? Why didn't you say it sooner?" What an idiot, there is no way out."

??Maybe he was too fierce, Chu Chen was frightened, hugged the blanket for a few seconds, then sniffed, wanting to cry aggrievedly: "I know you are in a bad mood, so I won't bother you."

?? "..."

?? Guys!relented again...

?? Facing Chu Chen like this, Li Muze felt that he was a sinner.

?? "I'm not in a bad mood, go to bed early."

?? *

??Two days later, the teacher's birthday banquet.

??The mentor's surname is Li, which coincidentally has the same surname as Li Muze. She is a recently retired female teacher at the professor level, and Li Muze's master tutor.

??Usually keep a low profile and abide by the ethics of teachers. This birthday party is also extremely low-key. There is no extravagant banquet, and he refuses the suggestion of booking a hotel and chooses to treat guests at home.

??All the students who came to celebrate the birthday were students who had left Teacher Li’s classroom. Dozens of people came and went. The originally cold living room quickly became lively.

??The arrival of Li Muze and Jiang Rui caused quite a stir.

??Especially Li Muze, a famous figure in S University, a man written in textbooks, who has won countless trophies in the industry. From the moment he entered the door, whispers of all kinds of fanboys and girls came into his ears.

?? "Brother, so handsome!"

?? "My god! I have a chance to ask for contact information."

?? "It's really amazing, it's great that he can come!"

?? "Look at Shige's thick black hair, it's so enviable."

?? "Not only the hair, but also a pair of natural good eyesight."
