Chapter 222: A Gentleman's Guard



He stood up from the ground, sat at the table, and started drinking again. The broken corner of his mouth touched the alcohol, and he hissed in pain instantly.

"Mu Lianshen, did you hit me on the face on purpose..."

The wind blew by, and only the aroma of wine filled the air, without any words in response.

Mu Lianshen walked out of the tavern, stood at the door and took a deep look inside before turning around and leaving.

Drove back to the compound.

The sky was dark and dotted with stars, and it was still night.

Mu Lianshen returned to the Mu family under the moonlight.

Seeing that the light was still on in the study, he frowned, walked forward and pushed open the door.

Seeing Fu Xiao still reading, he raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Fu Xiao smiled and looked back, "I'll fall asleep soon..."

But the moment I saw him, the smile on my face froze. I felt like he was in a bad mood.

He asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Mu Lianshen looked at his worried daughter, the ice in his eyes slowly melted, tinged with tenderness, "I'm fine, go to bed early."

He took the book from her hand, closed it and put it on the bookshelf, then took her hand and walked out of the study.

He walked her to the door of her room and watched her go in before turning around and walking towards his own room.

Lying in bed, thinking about the past.

When he was young, Song Ruyuan was polite, upright and loyal.

He is serious about doing things and is a straightforward person at heart.

Now, although he can still see the shadow of his past, some things are slowly changing...

Can he always be the same as before?

He really didn't want to see this friend reach a point of no return and become irreparable.

Mu Lianshen looked up and saw the moonlight coming in from the window, as white as snow.

A gentleman’s self-restraint should be like the bright moon;

Although the weather is cold and frosty, the brightness of the sky remains unchanged.

...

The next morning.

Hearing the noise outside, Fu Xiao opened his eyes, put on his clothes, opened the door and walked out.

Seeing the Mu family father and son outside, he smiled and walked up to them, "Grandpa, you got up early today."

"Boy, I had a good sleep last night," said Mr. Mu, who was standing in the yard with a happy smile on his face.

Mu Lianshen, who was boxing, waved to Fu Xiao, "An An, come..."

"Practicing boxing with dad,"

"Okay..."

Fu Xiao and Mu Lianshen practiced a set of military boxing. Old Man Mu couldn't keep up after just a few steps, so he stood aside and looked at them with a smile on his face.

Uncle Liu was busy in the kitchen. Just as they finished their activities, breakfast was ready.

I just cooked some porridge and boiled a few eggs.

After breakfast, Mu Lianshen looked at Fu Xiao and chuckled, "Dad has something else to do today, can you play by yourself?"

Fu Xiao nodded, "Okay, you go ahead and do your thing."

Mu Lianshen walked into the study and took something. He was about to go out. When he reached the door, he turned back to her who was talking to Old Man Mu and said, "I'll ask your Uncle Li to come find you later. Let him follow you today..."

Fu Xiao was about to say, "No need..." but he had already walked out of the house.

She curled her lips, turned her head and complained to Grandpa Mu: "Grandpa, isn't he a bit too much? He even needs someone to watch over me..."

"I'm not a child,"

Mr. Mu also started to talk about him: "That's right, your father is such a person, I will talk about him later."

"Hey, hello, grandpa,"

“Hahahaha…” Mr. Mu was coaxed into laughing.

The two chatted and laughed for a while, and he asked Fu Xiao: "Where do you want to go today?"

Fu Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Grandpa, I'm going out for a walk and just take a look."

"Do you want me to find some companions for you? There are many children in the compound who are idle."

Hearing what Mr. Mu said, Fu Xiao shook his head and said, "No need, I'll go out and take a look and be back soon."

Mr. Mu smiled and nodded, "Okay, then let Li Qi drive for you."

"Uh-huh,"

As they were talking, Li Qi walked in. Without interrupting the conversation, he walked over to Uncle Liu and helped him with something.

Mr. Mu looked up at the sky and said, "My dear, it's getting late. Don't be late for lunch if you go out."

"I understand, Grandpa,"

Fu Xiao went back to the room and took out a small bag, which contained a lot of money and bills he had earned in the past two days.

She said hello to Mr. Mu and went out, with Li Qi following closely behind her.

Uncle Liu poured a cup of tea for Grandpa Mu and said with a smile, "Grandpa, why don't you go for a walk with us?"

"What do you know?" Old Master Mu snorted coldly, "Children have their own ideas. Do you see any young people willing to go shopping with the elderly?"

"Besides, I am too old to walk around any more."

As he said this, he sat on a stool and said to the guard at the door, "Go, call Old Zhai over to play chess."

The guard responded and went to call someone.

Uncle Liu walked aside and started setting up the chessboard.

As for Fu Xiao, Li Qi drove her for a while.

Li Qi asked with a smile: "Where do you want to go?"

Fu Xiao pondered...

"There is an old Mexican restaurant in Beijing. Many young people want to go there. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Fu Xiao said he didn't like that place and said, "Uncle Li, take me to that teahouse..."

Of course Li Qi knew what place she was talking about, after all, Mu Lianshen also went there often.

When they arrived at the place, the car stopped outside the door, and Li Qi followed behind her, pretending to protect her...

I came in, ordered a pot of tea, and sat in a corner on the second floor.

Her original plan was to finish the tea with Uncle Li, leave the antidote to Gu Qichen and then go back.
