C34

On the highway, the black Mercedes-Benz sped away.

Zhou Nian'an held the steering wheel with one hand and pulled off his hair band with the other. His long hair hung loose behind him.

"Ai!" A heavy sigh sounded out within the carriage.

Zhou Nian'an smashed the steering wheel and muttered, "Zhou Nian'an, Zhou Nian'an, why didn't you hold back just now!" Having worked for so long, this was the first time Zhou Nian An had not completed his task. Thinking of the Director's chattering, Zhou Nian An's head swelled up.

However, thinking back to that man's actions, Zhou Nian An felt that giving him a slap was too light!

That man was too frivolous. Zhou Nian'an's impression of him was very poor!

In the front passenger seat, his phone was lying there quietly.

She and Sun Teng had reached the point where they were discussing marriage, but now that they found out that the other party had eaten in secret, she felt a little lucky. Luckily, she didn't discover his bad habit after marriage, which was why she felt sad for him. It was just that after so many years of emotional sacrifices, Zhou Nian'an's heart was still very sad.

Zhou Nian An's hand tightened around the steering wheel. He bit his lower lip. Damn man! I hope we'll never see each other again!

Just as he was thinking, his cell phone rang. It was the director.

A man's voice could be heard from the carriage, "Good day, I've worked hard on the way here. Just now, Director Mu called and praised you." It's getting late, you should go back and rest. " Zhou Nian An didn't even have the chance to speak before the other side started talking.

Praise me?

Zhou Nian'an raised an eyebrow. Had that man been beaten silly by him?

"Director, I understand." Zhou Nian'an replied.

Just as the call ended, an unfamiliar number rang again.

"Hello, this is Zhou Nian'an."

"Nihility …" The man's soft voice came out of the receiver. Zhou Nian'an's steering wheel slipped. The car jolted in the dark night.

Zhou Nian calmed himself down and focused on looking at the road in front of him.

"Nian'an, where did you go?" On the phone, Mu Zexi asked with a smile.

Zhou Nian An gritted his teeth and calmed himself down. He said indifferently, "Director Mu, I'm on my way back. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."

"Oh, so you're driving. It's fine, I said. Just listen." Mu Zexi replied lazily. Then, he said, "Nian'an, you …"

Looking at the completely black screen of the mobile phone, the corner of Zhou Nian'an's mouth curled up. He felt that the phone was too intimate and that the electricity had come in too promptly.

"Zhou Nian'an!" A man's exasperated voice came from the carriage.

Mu Dong listened from the beginning to the end. He had never seen Mu Zexi like this before. It was as though Mu Zexi was playing with a pet. The other party seemed to be ignoring him, but the owner was so angry that he jumped at him.

Hearing his brother's stifled laughter, Mu Zexi asked with a smile, "Is it funny?"

Mu Dongfang held back his laughter and replied, "Not bad."

"From where?" Mu Dong asked again.

"Why are you asking so much? I just thought it was a little interesting. " It had to be said that Zhou Nian An had piqued Mu Zexi's interest. He was looking forward to the day when the thorns would be pulled off her body one by one.

"Brother, I advise you not to throw yourself in." Mu Xiangdong glanced at his brother and reminded him kindly.

"Solve your own problems first." After saying that, he threw the old model phone onto the stage and complained, "What lousy phone is this!" Regarding the matter of being hung up, Young Master Xi was very angry, and the consequences were very serious!

Zhou Nian'an, who was driving, suddenly sneezed. A chill ran through his heart.

As the car entered the city, Mu Dongfang asked, "Where are you going?" Muzzlesi had his own apartment, which was basically uneventful, and he rarely went home.

"We're not going home. Let's go eat something and then go to my place." Mu Zexi said.

"Yes." Mu Dongdong replied and turned the steering wheel.

The rain gradually lessened, but the night market was still ablaze with red. Mu Dongdong pulled over to the side of the road.

After randomly choosing a stall, the two brothers sat down.

Even though it was raining, the business here was still quite good. People came and went, the boss was in charge of cooking, and the Lady Boss was in charge of greeting.

Mu Dongfang looked at the busy middle-aged couple and said, "Just like them, although it's hard, I'm happy."

Mu Zexi followed Mu Dongdong's gaze and looked over. The middle-aged woman was currently using a towel to wipe the sweat off the forehead of the man cooking.

"A dull life is something that everyone hopes for, but it is not certain that they will be able to obtain." Mu Zexi did not care much about her future marriage. The worst case scenario would be a marriage between two families in which they would choose a match. To be able to meet one's own, in their clans, that was truly an extravagant hope.

Mu Dongfang drank a mouthful of tea and remained silent for a moment. Then, he said, "How can you be proud of everything in life!" For example, in the blink of an eye, his blissful life had turned into a mirage. That person had left him forever, but he had left the best memories and memories to himself.

Mu Zexi looked at her brother and comfortingly patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Alright, mom, over there, I'll help you block them. If it really doesn't work out, then I'll just get married first!"

Mu Dongfang raised an eyebrow. "Married? You have a target? "

Mozzie curled her lips and said with a smile, "I just found an interesting person. He hasn't reached that step yet."

The dishes were served quickly. The two brothers stopped talking and focused on their meal.

After eating supper, Mu Dongfang sent his brother back to his apartment.

"You're not going upstairs?"

"Forget it, I'll just go back." As he spoke, he started the car.

Mu Dong parked the car. When he picked up the phone, he saw the white envelope. He picked it up and weighed it in his hand before finally taking it out of the car.

It was almost eleven when he entered the house. The house was quiet. Mu Dong quietly made his way up the stairs and was about to walk into his room when the door opened.

"Dad, you're still awake?" Mu Dongfang said.

"I came back so late." Mu Ru Guang frowned as he asked.

Mu Dongfang respected his strict father very much. His father rarely smiled at his family, and he was used to living in power for a long time, so he didn't know how to express his concern for his family.

However, Mu Dongfang did not care about the rebuke. He replied with a smile, "I will pay attention to it next time."

Mu Ru Guang nodded. "Sleep early." As he spoke, he headed towards his own room.

As he passed Mu Dongguo, he saw the sideburns of Mu Ru Guang's hair. There, it was already dazzling. Unknowingly, his father had actually aged.

Mu Dongfang's heart skipped a beat and he followed, "Let me walk you back to your room." As he spoke, he quickly walked forward.

Mu Ru Guang agreed and didn't refuse.

After seeing his father to his room, Mu Dong entered his own room and placed the white envelope along with his phone on his desk. Then he opened the closet to get his clothes and went into the bathroom.

The huge bedroom was brightly lit.

Mu Ru Guang pushed the door and entered. Jiang Lanying, who was leaning against the sofa with her eyes closed, heard the commotion and opened her eyes.

"Why am I asleep?" Jiang Lanying said.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Mu Ru Guang asked as he sat on the sofa.

"Thinking about reading a book, didn't I fall asleep?" Jiang Lanying put the book on her knees aside, stood up and walked towards the bed.

Jiang Lanying opened the drawer of the bedside table, took out the medicine bottle, twisted it open, poured out one pill, held the cup of water to test the temperature, and walked towards the man sitting on the sofa.

The man was slumped on the sofa with his left hand on the armrest to support his forehead. Looking down, he could see the white hair on top of his head.

"Here, drink the medicine." Mu Ru Guang's recently blood pressure was a bit high. The doctor prescribed antihypertensive drugs, but this person forgot to take them whenever he got busy. Jiang Lanying would personally give him the pills every day.

Mu Ru Guang took the pills and cup and put them into his mouth. He then raised his head and drank a mouthful of water. He then swallowed it and handed the cup to Jiang Lanying.

Jiang Lanying placed the cup back on the table and whispered, "It's getting late, let's go to bed early."

Mu Ru Guang leaned against the back of the sofa and replied, "Let's chat for a while."

Jiang Lanying tidied up the thin blanket and walked over. She sat down at the other end of the sofa and asked, "What happened today?"

Usually at this time, Mu Ru Guang would either work in the study room or have already gone to bed.

"How long has it been since we talked?" Mu Ru Guang asked.

Jiang Lanying was sitting on the sofa with her eyes fixed in front of her. A trace of loneliness flashed across her eyes as she said lightly, "I can't remember. Maybe it's been a long time."

For a time, the entire room was silent.

Finally, Mu Ru Guang opened his eyes and shifted his hand to where Jiang Lanying was sitting. He held her hand and said, "I feel very tired today. I can't accept this!"

Jiang Lanying was surprised for a moment as she lowered her head to look at the hand that had once held her. The back of her hand was now covered with wrinkles, and there was also a coarse callus on her palm. It was this hand that had held her back, causing her heart to beat faster, making her feel safe and reliable.

Jiang Lanying could not remember how long it had been since someone held her hand like this. Ever since she found out about this man's secret, Jiang Lanying, who loved to laugh and hope in her life, had grown up overnight. She patiently protected her family and took care of everyone else.

Jiang Lanying wanted to pull her hand away, but Mu Ru Guang held her tighter. The man's voice, filled with the vicissitudes of life, was heard. "Ying, I'm sorry."

When he was in love with this man, he had also called out to him in such a intimate manner. In the blink of an eye, 33 years had passed, and that spirited man had become more mature and charming through the years.

Jiang Lanying's eyes suddenly turned sour, and her calm face showed traces of being moved. "What happened to you today?"

Mu Ru Guang tightened his grip on Jiang Lanying as he said in a low voice, "Ying Zi, thank you for being willing to accompany me."

Mu Ru Guang knew that Jiang Lanying understood his words, and he also knew his true intentions.

Jiang Lanying quickly wiped the corner of her eyes and replied, "Alright, go to sleep early. If not, you won't be in the mood tomorrow." As he spoke, he tried to help Mu Ru Guang up.

Mu Ru Guang stood up, still holding his wife Jiang Lanying's hand. "Alright! I'll listen to you!"

In this world, you will meet all kinds of people. There are those you love and those you hate, those you love may not be able to spend your life with you, while those you hate may not be able to be your lover.

The mountains are tall and the rivers long. What we want is a plain and plain one.
