Goodbye, Mr. Mu

In the second week of Mu Huaizhang's business trip, it was late at night.

Chai Fei slept on his small bed at home as usual, the sweat on his forehead gradually thickened, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his trembling eyelashes revealed his restless dreams.

In the dream, it was no longer the stormy weather, nor the woodland that always made him get lost, but a sunflower field, with long flower stalks swaying with the breeze, covering a small thatched hut behind the flower field.

This house was seen by Chai Fei when he was studying abroad. In southern France, there are many such manors, but they are not the same. The houses in the manor are always more spectacular than this small thatched cottage.

But it didn't affect Chai Fei's liking for it. He rode his bicycle and rushed towards the small thatched hut with an eagerness that he didn't know why.

When he saw Mu Huaizhang's family sitting in the yard drinking afternoon tea, he seemed to have found a reason for his eagerness.

Mu Huaizhang thoughtfully stood up and took his bicycle, and said familiarly: "You are back from playing? Wash your hands, come have a cup of coffee and sit down?"

It is false to say that he is not happy, but Chai Fei is a little cautious when he says he is happy.He looked at the two elders who were sitting, and then at Mu Huaizhang who had a good chat with them.

Chai Fei seemed to feel that it was a dream, a sweet dream that he was willing to sleep in.

He strode over, exchanged kisses with Mu Huaizhang, and naturally talked about the sunflower field generously. Unexpectedly, Mu Huaizhang answered, wait for a while, and when autumn comes, he will take him to the field to break the flowers , eating an autumn sunflower seed.

Chai Fei laughed at him: "The barrister is too free to break sunflower seeds at home?"

Who knew that Mu Huaizhang actually replied, "It's because Boss Chai is happy."

Chai Fei thought, this must really be a dream.The Mu Huaizhang he knew probably wouldn't speak out, he would just break off the sunflower seeds and put them in front of him.

Mu Huaizhang is good at everything, but he never tells Chai Fei about things, good things and bad things are the same.

Chai Fei glanced at Mu Huaizhang in his dream, and the smile on his mouth became bitter.

"Mr. Mu." Chai Fei said, "If you have something to tell me directly, that would be great."

When Chai Fei's voice fell, the dream that he had set up in his mind also collapsed into ashes, drowning him and waking him up.

I looked at the electronic clock beside the bed, it was only past 3 o'clock.Bored, Chai Fei picked up his phone and looked through it. Except for the invitation message from his old friend to hold an art exhibition, Mu Huaizhang sent him a sentence after he fell asleep: "I was in a meeting just now. I didn't have time to answer the phone. You should be asleep now." , I will call you tomorrow."

Chai Fei probably didn't wake up and dozed off, so he replied by accident: "No, if you are busy, do it first, finish your work early, and wait for you to go home."

After sending it out, Chai Fei realized that it was early in the morning, so Mu Huaizhang should worry about him again.He quickly withdrew again, and when he did so, another withdrawal reminder appeared.

This made Chai Fei, who was already in a hurry, even more at a loss.

Unexpectedly, Mu Huaizhang returned very quickly this time, at least faster than during the normal chat yesterday!

Mu Huaizhang:?

Then there was a video call, and Chai Fei was so shocked that he almost threw his phone out of bed.

Chai Fei swallowed his saliva, calmed down a bit before connecting to the video, and the first sentence he spoke was weak because of being a villain: "Ah, Mr. Mu..."

"Didn't sleep?"

"Just woke up." Chai Fei said honestly.

"Just woke up? Did you have a nightmare?" Mu Huaizhang's eyes were not less sharp across the screen.

"Ah?" Chai Fei shook his head, "It's a sweet dream."

"Sweet dream?" Mu Huaizhang disapproved, "Sweet dream shouldn't wake up at this point. Tell me, what sweet dream?"

Chai Fei pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes were empty, as if he was recalling the dream just now, but what he said was quite different from the dream: "I dreamed that Mr. Mu took me to Hawaii, took me surfing, and insisted on teaching I hoisted the sails and steered the helm, and when I said I couldn’t do it, you forced me into the boat and insisted on taking me out to sea, so I had no choice but to make do with it..."

Mu Huaizhang carefully listened to the story that Chai Fei made up from his letter, and came to a conclusion: "Boss Chai wants to come out to play?"

"A little bit." Chai Fei sighed, "But no, Mr. Mu, let me see the sea on your side."

According to what he said, Mu Huaizhang stood at the window and changed the camera to the sea view outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Look."

Before changing the camera, Chai Fei saw Mu Huaizhang's suite and said with a smile, "Have you gone back to the hotel?"

"Well, I'm busy today," Mu Huaizhang zoomed in on the beach in the camera and said, "The location of my room is not very good, it's next to the beach, and there are children cheering downstairs early every day. But it's pretty good , You can see many people sunbathing on the beach.”

"Oh? Is it to watch people bask in the sun, or to watch people." Chai Fei deliberately joked.

Mu Huaizhang simply switched the camera back: "I don't think Boss Chai wants to see the sea."

"Well, I want to see you."

"Look at me, let's see, have I changed?" Mu Huaizhang asked in a low voice.

Chai Fei glared at him: "Who said to look at this, I mean to see if you have stolen someone."

Mu Huaizhang obviously frowned suspiciously because of this question, saying that he was puzzled, but he was a little happy in his heart, as if Chai Fei gave him a special attention, he said with a smile: "Stole who?"

"Brother Feng said, barristers like you go out, of course you want to taste wild game?"

"I'm an exception." Mu Huaizhang said solemnly.

Chai Fei raised his eyebrows, but his eyes fell back on the mural hanging on the wall behind Mu Huaizhang.

"What's wrong?" Mu Huaizhang turned around and saw nothing.

"I've seen the painting behind you."

"Have you seen it?" Mu Huaizhang explained casually, "This hotel is full of hanging paintings like this, the paintings are just abstract; the patterns are similar, but the waiter here told me before that the paintings in each room The directions are different, you see mine is facing the right, huh? It is facing the right, not the left.”

"Well, the camera faces left. The video faces right."

"Really? Then my Boss Chai is amazing, you all know that."

Chai Fei softly "hummed" Mu Huaizhang, and made a voice of rebuttal to his underestimation of himself.

Probably Chai Fei's little gesture was so cute that it made the person on the other end of the video laugh.

Chai Fei: "What are you laughing at, stop laughing!"

"No." Mu Huaizhang suppressed his smile, "Boss Chai."

"what?"

Mu Huaizhang moved the screen closer and whispered, "I miss you."

After hearing this, Chai Fei was stunned on the spot, so why wasn't he?These days, he relies too much on Mu Huaizhang, far surpassing his partner. In other words, it is difficult for Chai Mu to compare with Mu Huaizhang's position in his heart.

So when Mu Huaizhang was no longer by his side, he couldn't even sleep well, as if he had lost his soul and body, he was in a daze, looking for things to do every day, just to distinguish himself from the walking dead.

"Don't provoke me, Mr. Mu." Chai Fei turned off the screen of the phone, so that Mu Huaizhang could only see the dark picture, and he couldn't see that he was not holding back the tears sliding down from the corners of his eyes. "I didn't provoke you today."

"Why is your voice shaking?" Mu Huaizhang was concerned, "Boss Chai?"

"Stop talking! Don't say a single word!" Chai Fei suddenly became hypocritical, which he thought was hypocritical. He buried himself in the quilt, and Du muttered, "I miss you very much too, why don't you come back? Boss The cats have come back with other kittens! My husband hasn’t come back yet! I miss him, I miss him so much, I want to hold his face and kiss him; I want to hug him tightly, I want to rub him, I want to be with him Let him sleep and listen to him call me baby..."

"..." Mu Huaizhang, who had never heard of Chai Fei's complaints, was the first time he heard Chai Fei say such a thing. It would be a lie to say that he was not shocked. He even wanted to go back to Chai Fei immediately, and wanted to hear him say it face to face. Want to kiss him and make love to him.

However, he couldn't go.

So much so that Chai Fei couldn't hear other news except that he could hear him say: "I'll be back soon".

Chai Fei doesn't remember how long he said he slept, but he only remembers that when he woke up in the morning, the video with Mu Huaizhang had been hung up, and his mobile phone's battery had been completely drained.

Of course, the old cat that was supposed to be in the cat nest also wandered out and disappeared, leaving him alone in the whole room.
