Li Shengrui looked at her deeply for a long time, without saying a word, he closed the door and left.

Even after they had reached home, the two of them still did not speak a word. Mu Jingyan quietly curled up in his embrace, and even her breathing was very light.

Li Shengrui was about to carry her upstairs, but did not expect Xiang Ruolan to see her in such a sorry state. She frowned: "What's going on?"

Li Shengrui's face turned ashen, he did not reply and directly carried Mu Jingyan upstairs.

"What happened?" Xiang Ruolan who did not get an answer asked the similarly confused Li Hanshui.

Li Hanshui shrugged his shoulders, "If you ask me, who should I ask?"

"Maybe he was found out and got beaten up by my brother?"

Li Hanshui's wild speculation was actually a little exciting.

Xiang Ruolan rolled her eyes at her. Wishing others to live a bad life, what kind of mentality was this?

Li Shengrui carried her up the stairs, and kicked open the door to the room. The only light that could faintly be seen was from the corridor, as Li Shengrui smeared her into the darkness and gently placed her on the bed. She turned her back to him, and leaned against his arm as he looked out the window.

Li Shengrui sat on the side of the bed. After a long while, he reached out his hand to touch her, but the moment he touched her, he dodged her and tried to slap her face.

"Mu Jingyan, can you say something?"

Since he had rescued her, she had not said a word. He was very worried, and after a long time of silence, his voice sounded a little hoarse.

She still refused to speak. She lightly shifted her body and tears started to form in her eyes.

Li Shengrui sat beside her again, caressing her hair, "Yan Yan, do you have anything that you need to tell me? "I'm very worried about you doing this."

She closed her eyes and remained silent.

His heart ached for her hurt, his heart ached for her silence, and he blamed himself for not protecting her and scaring her and not wanting to be angry with her, and he coaxed her to open up to him in a gentle voice.

Every time she had something on her mind, she would just stay silent, using silence to fight against everything. She would hide her worries deep within her heart. If there were too many, something would happen to her.

But she said nothing, and he could do nothing to her.

He got up and went to get the medicine box. He held her finger and carefully applied the medicine. Then, he blew gently on her finger.

The coolness of his fingertips, and the warmth of his heart, caused Mu Jingyan's body to tremble slightly, and his tears involuntarily fell.

Since he treated her so well, why did he …

She bit her lip, and a stream of tears flowed silently down her sad face. There was no sound at all, only the constant flow of tears.

He held her in his arms, his body trembling slightly. He hugged her tightly, his chin pressing against her head. "Don't cry, I will feel sorry for you."

"Tell your husband what's on your mind." His voice was full of love.

Her crying grew louder.

Li Shengrui patted her back lightly, "If you want to cry, just cry. It'll be better if you cry."

Painful and suppressed sighs gradually rang out. She lay on his body, allowing the tears to wet his clothes. She thumped his chest. The space between his eyebrows became heavy, so she was held even tighter.

"Regarding Dai Rou, you have to listen to my explanation."

She shook her head so hard that tears and snot ran all over him.

She didn't want to hear it, she was afraid of hearing the answers that she couldn't accept. She was afraid of what would happen to her most beloved person and her most trusted friend.

Li Shengrui pressed his lower jaw, and said thoughtfully, "You don't want to hear? "Is this person just sulking because of his wild imagination?"

She didn't answer and just lay there spasmodically.

"Then I'll get Dai Rou to explain it to you personally." His voice was low and cold.

Feeling his anger, she looked up at him, and he carried her to the bathroom, where he carefully undressed her, put her in the bath, and gently cleaned her, lest he should touch the wounds on her hands, then wrap her in a towel and carry her out, dry her hair, put her on the bed and cover her with the quilt, then turned to take a bath himself, washed himself, hugged her from behind, kissed her hair, and said, "Good night."

The two of them slept in each other's embrace.

When Mu Jingyan went to work, she met Dai Rou at the elevator. She turned around and went to another elevator.

Xu Zhouliang entered the office and glanced at Mu Jingyan. She was sitting listlessly with his eyes red, and when Mu Jingyan saw her, he immediately lowered his head and wiped his eyes.

She was in a very low mood, Xu Zhouliang did not ask and directly sat down at his desk, after a while, he suddenly got up and left.

Mu Jingyan was not in the mood to work, seeing him leave, she immediately laid on the table and sighed.

This was because Li Shengrui did not speak to his in the morning, causing her to feel very dejected.

When she was quiet, she would think a lot and feel sad for a long time.

She looked at her cell phone. She thought they had been sweet as butter, but she didn't expect them to be cold.

This feeling of unease would cause one's nerves to weaken.

After thinking about it, his mood became worse and worse. Unexpectedly, Xu Zhouliang suddenly came back with a delicate cake that was wrapped in a package. Pa, it was placed in front of her.

She looked at him with surprise, "Boss Xu... "You …"

"For you." The corner of his lips curled up slightly, creating a beautiful curve. "Didn't you say that eating something when you're in a bad mood would make you very happy? "That's why I bought it for you!"

Mu Jingyan was startled, how could he still remember?

Mu Jingyan warned softly, "Boss Xu, the company says that office romance is not allowed?"

Hearing this, he laughed out loud, revealing a row of white teeth. His eyebrows were beaming brightly. "I already have someone I like."

Ah?

"Then she won't understand." "Then why did you buy me food?"

In front of delicious food, I am unable to control my heart of a glutton, I will misunderstand your interest in me.

Xu Zhenliang went back and sat down, looking at her with interest, "Maybe it's because you look more like someone who eats..." Like a pet that likes to eat and is obedient. "

She was as surprised as if thunder had exploded above her head. What? Think of me as a pet!

Xu Zhaoliang saw her surprise and quickly explained, "No, I mean I prefer small pets, like kittens and puppies, but I'm allergic to fur, so …" "Anyway, I'm just praising your good looks."

Is there a mistake?! Do you take me for an idiot! She was so pretty to the kittens and puppies!

How infuriating! The good impression of him that he had built up with great difficulty vanished in an instant. Mu Jingyan huffed and puffed as she stacked up the documents, blocking his sight.

She lay sullenly on the table. She had wanted to memorize the information, but she was too annoyed to read anything. He looked at his phone every few minutes and clicked it off.

There was no phone, no text message, no WeChat.

No matter how much he had quarreled in the past, he would always contact her on his own initiative, even if it was just sending an "En".

But after a few hours, he didn't even have a punctuation mark.

She took out her cell phone, opened WeChat, and thought for a moment before pressing it. "Hubby, what are you doing?" She felt that it wasn't appropriate and deleted her husband. She felt that it wasn't good and changed it to "Are you there?" In the end, he deleted all of them and pressed down on his phone.

She didn't know what to do, so she contacted Xia Sisi.

The two of them agreed to have lunch together.

When they met in the afternoon, Xia Sisi seemed to have gotten really sick, and her entire person looked dispirited and depressed.

"Xia Sisi, you got the upper hand?"

She sighed and laid down on the table.

"Mu Jingyan." She pulled at her hair impatiently. "I …" I think I saw him last night. "

Him?

Mu Jingyan was startled, "It can't be? Are you sure you saw him? "

"I'm just not sure, that's why I'm so mad!" She grabbed Mu Jingyan's hand as if she was crazy, "He shouldn't return it right? He hasn't appeared for so long? Am I seeing things wrong? How could he possibly return it? "

She was afraid to see him, and she was looking forward to meeting him.

"Xia Xia, if he really came back, what are you going to do?" Mu Jingyan pulled out her tightly held hand and patted her.

"It's really him?" Xia Sisi suddenly sat up, her eyes red, "I want him to split ten durian flowers with his bare hands! Otherwise, my name Xia Sisi will be written upside down! "

Mu Jingyan curled her lips, "He hacked at durian with his hand?"

In this world, there was no one that was not a rare weirdo. He could chop durian into flowers.

With Xia Sisi's little trick, I'm afraid that she will be the one to chop off Durian!

"Mu Mu." Xia Sisi looked at her seriously, "Have you two ever contacted each other in private?"

Mu Jingyan had a helpless face, she knocked on her head, "I really want to kill you first, a man who sleeps with you, do I need to contact him?"

"But he did like you, after all." Xia Sisi muttered and secretly glanced at Mu Jingyan.

"I …" Mu Jingyan was speechless towards this woman whose IQ was currently negative, "Is there a truth in his mouth? Do you believe that? Are you stupid? "

What a brainless fellow. I just glanced at him from afar, but didn't manage to catch even a glimpse of his fat body. Other than knowing that he was a man, I didn't know anything else.

"I don't care." Xia Sisi pouted, supporting her chin, "In any case, if he contacts you, you must immediately inform me."

Mu Jingyan shook his head, "You're hopeless!"

This was simply impossible!

Xia Sisi waved her hands, she did not want to continue chatting with this man, "What are you looking for me for?"

She had almost forgotten what was important, it was her turn to be listless. She drooped her head, "Sigh, Li Shengrui and I … "They quarreled."

"Oh."

Xia Sisi disagreed, didn't you guys make a lot of noise?

Every few hours, they would make up with each other and feed each other dog food.

"Xia Xia." Mu Jingyan rubbed her hands together nervously, "You said that he was always unwilling to have children with me. He doesn't want to? "

Xia Sisi was startled, she rolled her eyes at her, "What are you daydreaming about!"

The waitress broke the coffee, stirred uneasily, and continued to mutter, "Then why are you so slow to ask me for a child? "He's been married for a year. He said he didn't like children, but …"

But he kept saying that he was a small child. Did he not like her?

Xia Sisi slapped her head hard, she did not allow her to continue thinking so much, "I really submit to you, if he did not have you in his heart, why would she marry you?"

However …

She still didn't understand …

When she got off work at night and was packing up, Li Shengrui sent her a message, "Go to Meng Junxi's bar tonight."

The gloomy mood of the day finally let a trace of sunlight in.

After getting off work, he took a taxi to the bar.

He found a room and went in immediately. Meng Junxi was singing with a golden-haired girl in his arms. The singing went from low to high, it was heart-tearing and lung-splitting.

Seeing Mu Jingyan come in, she immediately threw away the microphone and walked over, "Xiao Mengmeng, do you miss me?!" She was about to give her a hug, but she pushed him away.

"I missed you so much!"

Mu Jingyan hit him hard on the head, and all the beautiful scenes that he had imagined immediately shattered into pieces. Mu Jingyan secretly glanced at the corner. Li Shengrui was sitting in the corner and had extinguished his cigarette after seeing her come in, but he did not look at her.

Instantly, his mood lost all its beauty.

Meng Junxi still shamelessly came over and said, "Come, let's sing a song." Ye Zichen naturally put his arm on her shoulder.

"Meng Junxi, I'll say it one last time, move your arm away!"

She was already in a bad mood, and this fellow was even deliberately hindering her growth.

Meng Junxi pretended to be angry, "Women are truly fickle, they can't recognize each other even if they have no hearts and lungs.

Mu Jingyan looked indifferent, but intentionally or unintentionally, she looked at Li Shengrui, "You should just become a eunuch!"

Concussive!

Meng Xiaoxi continued to nag and nag about the difference between a monk and a eunuch. As for Mu Jingyan, she was upset by his nagging, so she turned her head and shouted, "Just say one more word to me, do you believe that I'll let you experience being a eunuch now!

Meng Junxi was so angry that he jumped up and down, but suddenly was pushed away by a huge force. Luckily there was a sofa behind him, otherwise he would have kissed the ground again.

Li Shengrui glared at Meng Junxi who was sprawled on the sofa and hugged Mu Jingyan tightly to her chest, bringing her to and fro.

Music revolved around the entire room, Mu Jingyan was controlled to the extent that he could not feel anything, and Mu Jingyan seemed to be able to smell the faint scent of tobacco on his body.

He said softly, "Let Dai Rou explain later."

Mu Jingyan was startled, Dai Rou was coming?

Was he here to explain how the money had come to be?

She immediately stood up, wanting to escape, but Li Shengrui forced her back onto the sofa, making her unable to move.

His face was ashen. "You're not allowed to leave!"

"I …"

She wanted to say that she didn't want to hear it, that she was afraid to hear the answer that would break her heart. She was about to open her mouth when the door rang.

Dai Rou came.

Li Shengrui waved his hand, and the music suddenly stopped, and the private room immediately became quiet.

Meng Junxi let the others go out, and slowly walked to Li Shengrui, "Please give me your instructions."

"F * ck off."

Meng Junxi rolled his eyes and walked out. As he passed by Dai Rou, he sized him up and down with ill intentions and sneered before walking out.

At this moment, there were only the three of them in the room.

Dai Rou was obviously a little unsettled, "Senior, what did you call me for?"

She was a little surprised to see Mu Jingyan sitting beside Li Shengrui, and her gaze paused for a moment.

She was a smart woman, and upon seeing Mu Jingyan present, she immediately guessed Li Shengrui's intention in making her come here.

She felt like an awkward joke, her pride shattered.

Li Shengrui lit up another cigarette, held it between his slender fingers, and slowly brought it to his lips. He took a light drag of it, and after being bored for a long time, he finally exhaled, "You should explain the misunderstanding to her."

Her heart ached. She pursed her lips, not wanting to say anything.

She seemed to be muttering to herself, "Senior, what I said was the truth. I've liked you for a long time, I …"

Halfway through her words, she felt Li Shengrui's sharp eyes filled with warning, so she forcefully swallowed the words from her mouth.

She felt particularly wronged and heartbroken. She put her bangs behind her ears and said indifferently, "What do you want me to explain?"

Li Shengrui squinted his eyes, seeing the white mist around him, afraid that the smoke would suffocate him, he stood up.

She walked towards her with her slender legs. Everything about him looked so beautiful, so wild and sexy, at this moment, Dai Rou felt that her love for him had made her willingly become a lowly dog, and she was willing to use the entire world to exchange for his sincerity. But Dai Rou was clear that in her eyes, this world, his own sincerity was not even worth a penny.

"Explain everything clearly!" It was so cold that it didn't even contain any feelings.

Dai Rou laughed at herself and held back her tears. She had long since understood that other than Li Shengrui, he was also heartless and heartless to everyone else. She followed his steps, listened to his instructions, and liked him only for his smile.

However, when had he ever seriously looked at himself? Not even once.

The door to the room was slammed shut by him.

Grief overwhelmed him.

In that moment, she understood that there was a sun, moon, and a star between them.

At this moment, there were only the two of them in the room.

Mu Jingyan did not expect Dai Rou to return, so she anxiously sat there. Ever since she was provoked by Dai Rou, she realized that she was slightly afraid of him.

"Mu Jingyan." Dai Rou coldly called out her name.

Dai Rou lightly walked towards her, and stopped two steps away from her as she coldly looked at her.

Mu Jingyan felt as if she had never met or truly understood her and everything that had happened in the past were just an illusion.

"Fine, I'll explain. I'll explain it well!" Dai Rou laughed weakly.

She stared at her with emotionless eyes, "Mu Jingyan, do you think that you are the only one who has waited for him for seven years? As for me, I was also waiting for him day and night. Even though I knew that I couldn't wait for him, I still foolishly waited for him. I fell in love with him the first time I saw him. In order to be compatible with him, I did my best to make myself outstanding so that he could see a little of me. As for you, besides being shameless and causing trouble for him, what else have you done? Apart from me not risking my life for him like you did, how could I be inferior to you? I have waited with you for seven years, seven years in exchange for you and his wings, seven years in exchange for what? "Apart from his indifference and the series of cold numbers in the bank card, tell me, what did I get?"

Mu Jingyan was dumbstruck. She never knew that Dai Rou actually liked Li Shengrui, and had liked him for such a long time!

Was it because she was too dumb that she couldn't see it, or was it because Dai Rou was too good at disguising herself?

"Satisfied? Was he surprised? Am I not fit to like him? That string of numbers is the humiliation you gave me, the cost of my youth and love being buried together! " Dai Rou was close to going crazy, tears flowing from the corners of her eyes. She casually wiped them away, "Speak, what else do you have that I can tell you!"

Mu Jingyan wanted to pull Dai Rou's hand, but she withdrew it back, "So, the deal between you and her, was it just because Li Shengrui asked you to protect me?"

"Otherwise?" Dai Rou glanced at her sarcastically.

"So you have no other relationship?"

She looked at Dai Rou with an expectant gaze. Dai Rou paused for a moment, then looked at her with a cold smile. Nothing happened. "

Nothing had happened, and the floating heart had finally landed.

Mu Jingyan bit her lower lip, "Then why are you friends with me, also because of him?"

Dai Rou was startled, she did not expect her to ask that, "What? Do you think someone like you is worth it for me to socialize with? You think that I would be willing to be your and Xia Sisi's friend, but I didn't do that … "Despicable!"

"Dai Rou!" After Mu Jingyan heard her say that, she suddenly flew into a rage, "You better keep your mouth shut! Was Xia Sisi and I not good to you? Must you say that? "

"Alright." Dai Rou still ridiculed herself, "That's right, we were once friends that could speak anything. I have also been sincere to you guys, but what about you guys? You and Xia Sisi will always be the best and most intimate, you guys will only have trouble remembering me and complaining to me. Am I a trash can? Every time I hear you talk about your stupid stuff, I get so disgusted! "

Dai Rou's body was trembling from excitement. Her eyes were scarlet as she clenched her fists tightly.

Seeing that she despised their friendship so much, Mu Jingyan also didn't want to say anything more to her, "Fine, everything is fine now. Since this is your choice, I won't urge you to stay."

Before, no matter how unpleasant her words were, even if she had betrayed him, even if … Even if she could forgive her for whatever had happened between her and Li Shengrui, she had never given up on her.

After all, she truly regarded her as a friend, whether she believed it or not.

She had tried to talk her out of it, if not from her heart.

She once foolishly thought that even if Li Shengrui left her side one day, she and Xia Sisi would still be together with her for the rest of her life.

His life had been so long and so short, but when his friends said they would leave, they left.

Mu Jingyan picked up her bag, walked to her side, and paused for a while. "Dai Rou, did you know, I once said to Xia Xia that if there was someone who bullied you one day, the two of us would definitely go through fire and water for you, and we would definitely avenge you at the ends of the earth."

Dai Rou's body fiercely twitched as she let out suppressed and painful sighs.

What's the use of saying all these? Who hasn't paid with their heart. She tried her best to suppress her tears, but in the end, she couldn't hold them back. She cried out in a loud, heart-wrenching voice. The sound echoed in the dark room.

"Mu Jingyan, do you know why senior didn't want a child from you?" Just as she was about to open the door and leave, Mu Jingyan turned her head and looked at her in shock.
