"When did my brother hide the medicine here? How come I didn't know about it? And what's going on outside?" Zhou Shuo reacted and asked hurriedly.
Mu Ci sat back on the sofa, pulled Zhou Shuo into his arms, and started talking from the time when Zhou Le and her daughter moved into their home. He and Uncle Liu deduced little by little that their target should be Zhou Shuo's medicine, so they urgently made a batch of bottles similar to Zhou Le's medicine bottles, filled them with fake medicine, and replaced Zhou Shuo's medicine.
Now, that batch of fake medicines has really been lost, which shows that Zhou Le and the others’ target is those medicines.
"No wonder the lady suddenly became nice to Zhou Le. It turns out she wanted this fool to steal the medicine! She is so stupid!" Zhou Shuo shook his head and sighed.
Zhou Le was so willing to be used by others.
"There must be something hateful about a pitiful person. Zhou Shuo, what if the medicine she stole today was real?" Mu Ci guided Zhou Shuo.
Being too kind, or kindness without principles, is never a good thing.
Zhou Shuo sighed softly: "I understand what my brother means, I just don't understand why people's hearts are so complicated."
Zhou Shuo couldn't help but feel annoyed when thinking of Song Nan who was always provoking others from a perspective that no one else could see.
Mu Ci kissed her forehead gently, "Zhou Shuo, remember, no matter what others do, no matter how I treat others or how others treat me, it will not affect our relationship. No matter what time, remember to trust me. Believe that I will always stand by you and always put you first."
Zhou Shuo put his arms around Mu Ci's waist, buried his face in his chest, and yawned slightly.
Mu Ci's heart was gently touched, and the haze immediately dissipated.
Forget it, for the future of him and Zhou Shuo, everything is worth it.
Zhou Shuo couldn't help but admire Song Nan; she really had some abilities.
A small party was held at home on Saturday. When Zhou Shuo woke up naturally and went downstairs, he found that everything was ready.
Xiaobai and Xiaoling came over with a nervous look on their faces.
"Madam, Miss Song Nan has been busy since early morning." Xiaobai said nervously, implying that he was blaming his own madam for getting up too late and was worried about her lack of awareness and initiative.
Zhou Shuo whispered, "Then who told you not to wake me up?"
Xiao Ling said anxiously, "How dare I? The Master said that you've finally had a day off and no one is allowed to disturb you." The implication was, do we really need to be called for something so important? Can't you just be more careful?
Zhou Shuo smiled, "It's okay. If there's anything, your young master is watching. He's not anxious, so why should we be anxious?"
Xiaobai and Xiaoling were so anxious that they stamped their feet. They really didn't understand how to make it clear to their silly young lady so that she would understand.
Miss Song Nan is now trying to usurp power and seize the throne!
Zhou Shuo smiled and put his arm around their shoulders. "Don't worry, there are people doing this kind of work, so why not let her do it?"
If Song Nan could become the young lady of the Mu family, then Zhou Shuo would have no place to go.
She has been close to the water for so many years but has never been able to get the moon. If she tries now, it may be too late.
However, Xiaobai and Xiaoling's worries are justified. Who would like to hold a bowl of noodles with a hungry ghost following behind, eyeing the noodles in your bowl?
There is only one way, let the ghost go wherever it wants, stop dreaming!
Song Nan smiled gently, "Did Zhou Shuo sleep well? I think he did, he looks healthy!"
This smile and this tone are as if a caring older sister is concerned about her lazy, greedy and good-for-nothing younger sister.
Zhou Shuo caught a glimpse of Mu Ci in the living room from the corner of his eye and understood what was going on.
She raised her hand and touched her face, and said in agreement, "I think so too."
Song Nan's smile froze.
Zhou Shuo always had an advantage without any tricks, which made her little plans fail or even backfire, which forced her to be extra careful.
Zhou Shuo looked at the menu that Song Nan had deliberately placed in a prominent position, pointed at two dishes and said, "Chen Su doesn't eat celery and coriander. She will definitely not like these two dishes."
Song Nan couldn't hide his embarrassment, "But the menu has already been prepared, it's too late to change it now."
Zhou Shuo shrugged. "What does it matter? Miss Song Nan is too nervous, isn't she? The dishes that Shen Su doesn't like might be liked by others. You can't just change it up for her alone, right? I just mentioned it casually because I know her preferences. Don't mind it."
Song Nan took a deep breath, suppressed her "I don't mind", and forced a smile, "Why don't you help me see if there is anything that can be improved."
Zhou Shuo retreated with a smile on his face. "That's not necessary, is it? With such careful preparation, how could there be any shortcomings?"
Song Nan's face darkened slightly, and his eyes turned sharp when he looked at Zhou Shuo.
This damn girl is really too arrogant.
Zhou Shuo turned around and went to find Mu Ci as if nothing had happened. Song Nan looked at her back coldly and crumpled the tablecloth in his hand.
"She is so insidious." Zhou Le saw this scene, walked up and whispered to Song Nan.
Song Nan glanced at her, threw the tablecloth on the table, and said coldly: "Wait until you dare to argue with her face to face before saying this."
Zhou Le originally wanted to please Song Nan, but she suffered this anger for no reason. However, she dared not say anything and could only digest it on her own. She made a secret resolution in her heart that one day, when she stood above everyone else, she would see how she would deal with this group of bitches!
Looking at this magnificent, warm and elegant hall, Zhou Le felt sad when he thought that all of this was prepared for Mu En's fiancée.
Chen Su is the daughter of a wealthy family that everyone admires. In comparison, she is like an ugly duckling. Duan Si and Song Nan's attitudes are very clear. They are attracted by Chen Su's family background because it can bless Mu En and help him reach a higher position.
They never took her seriously.
The reason they were able to have this brief closeness was entirely because he wanted to take advantage of her. In Duan Si's eyes, she was not even worthy of being Mu En's maid.
Zhou Le's eyes were filled with tears, and she secretly made up her mind that she must fight for herself. She would definitely be able to stand by Mu En's side and be admired by everyone!
She clenched her fists, intending to find trouble with Zhou Shuo, but when she turned around, she saw a familiar figure walking towards her from the door.
Zhou Le's heart skipped a beat. That person turned out to be Gu Ming!
She subconsciously wanted to hide, but she came to her senses in an instant.
This is the Mu family, her sister's home. Gu Ming is asking for trouble by coming here.
So she straightened her chest, prepared to face it calmly, and looked around for the Mu family. Now she was still useful to Duan Si, and he should not refuse to help her. If she didn't help, she would blame Zhou Shuo. After all, Zhou Shuo was the one who was betrothed to Gu Ming!
Her mind was turning over and over, and she had thought it through in a moment, but Gu Ming did not come towards her. He walked straight into the living room and walked towards Mu Ci, who was sitting on the sofa reading the financial report on a tablet.
Gu Ming, dressed in a well-tailored suit, saluted Mu Ci respectfully, "Mr. Mu, good morning!"
Mu Ci put down the tablet, looked at him, and said with satisfaction: "Good morning!"
Zhou Shuo was coming out of the kitchen, holding a plate of snacks. "Brother Shitou, this snack is delicious—, eh?"
When she saw Gu Ming, she was also stunned.
