A dozen minutes later, Mu Xiaoxi walked out of the police station dejectedly.
If a case cannot be filed in less than 48 hours, how can she find her brother?
As soon as they came out, Mu Xiaoxi sat on the curb. Luckily, there was relatively little traffic in the area, otherwise it could easily set a bad example for the children.
"Brother, I miss you so much..."
Mu Xiaoxi buried her head between her knees, exuding a dejected aura.
Actually, she still doesn't quite understand why her brother suddenly got angry with her.
Is it because you don't like being called "sister"? You didn't show it the first time you were called that.
"It must be. He knows that I consider him my boyfriend."
After much deliberation, Mu Xiaoxi concluded that this was the real answer.
Her brother is a very traditional person, and he truly treats her like a sister. Perhaps it was because he knew about her feelings for him and didn't know how to respond that he ran away.
As for the stunt double scenes like Shi Hengyu's, those have nothing to do with her.
Mu Xiaoxi met Lin Fangyi before she went to the orphanage.
At that time, Mu Xiaoxi lived on the other side of the city. When she was in kindergarten, Lin Fangyi from the neighboring primary school often came to play with her.
That's all.
Mu Liuyun does look very similar to Lin Fangyi, but she has never felt that Mu Liuyun and Lin Fangyi have anything in common.
The reason I fell in love with Mu Liuyun was simply because Mu Liuyun was too good.
Imagine someone who is beautiful and cute, gentle and considerate towards you, and obedient to your every whim, and who is not related to you by blood. It's hard not to like him, right?
Therefore, when facing her friends, Mu Xiaoxi never mentions that she has an older brother, but instead says that she has a boyfriend she has been dating for a long time.
Even in her heart, she never treated Mu Liuyun as her brother.
But that silly older brother never realized her feelings.
After sitting for a while, Mu Xiaoxi took out her phone and stared blankly at the message Mu Lixiong had just sent.
After Mu Liuyun ran away, her grandfather called her several times, asking if she was alright on her own and if she wanted him to come back and keep her company.
Mu Xiaoxi is no longer a child. After being asked so many questions, she simply said, "I like my brother." After that, Mu Lixiong stopped talking about it and even hung up the phone.
Later, I sent her a text message with only the words "Keep it up".
However, in Mu Xiaoxi's eyes, those two words carried considerable weight. In her view, Mu Lixiong's words could be interpreted as a sign of both sets of parents' consent.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoxi patted her cheeks, rallied her spirits, stood up, and clenched her little pink fists, saying, "Brother...brother, don't let me catch you..."
However, Mu Xiaoxi did not notice the hint of illness that unconsciously appeared in her eyes.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, Mu Lixiong, who was eating steak with chopsticks, looked at his phone with a complicated expression.
"Brother Mu, what's wrong?"
"Well, about twenty years ago, I think I picked up a succubus and brought her home."
"Huh? What, did you punish him?"
Mu Lixiong ignored Chu Tianxing, and just kept eating his steak while thinking.
In fact, Mu Lixiong had long suspected Mu Xiaoxi's feelings. But when he finally confirmed them, he was still somewhat surprised.
She loves her own precious granddaughter and her own precious grandson.
Although they were not related by blood, Mu Lixiong still found it hard to accept.
After a long while, he sighed and looked at Chu Tianxing seriously: "Kid Chu, I may not be able to help your daughter anymore."
Compared to Chu Yaqin, Mu Xiaoxi is more important to Mu Lixiong.
"What a succubus! I'm so envious."
...
...
"Achoo!"
Sitting at the dinner table, Mu Liuyun suddenly sneezed loudly. Sister Wang, who was next to him, quickly reached out and touched his head. She only put her hand down after finding that he was not hot.
"Whose little girl is this, talking about our Xiaoyun?"
Mu Liuyun rolled her eyes at Sister Wang: "No way, there might be a few young men."
Mu Jianghe, who was standing to the side, suddenly laughed as he looked at Mu Liuyun's expressive face: "Xiaoyun, you're still too slow-witted."
"What's the meaning?"
Mu Jianghe shook his head: "It cannot be said, it cannot be said."
Mu Jianghe was quite perceptive in matters of the heart, and he noticed early on that Mu Xiaoxi felt differently about Mu Liuyun. However, since everyone in the family except him was generally careless, he never brought it up.
"Hey, speaking of which, Brother Sun, how did you and Brother Jianghe meet?"
Mu Liuyun took a couple of bites of rice, then suddenly remembered the question that had been bothering him. So he put the half-eaten chicken leg back into his bowl and asked.
Upon hearing Mu Liuyun's words, Sun Xingmin and Mu Jianghe exchanged a glance and smiled awkwardly at each other: "It's not exactly a good story, is it?"
At that time, Sun Xingmin had just finished university in Beijing and did not intend to return to his village to develop his career, so he found a job in Beijing.
Not long after, Mu Jianghe also joined the company. However, due to his educational background, Mu Jianghe was initially a low-level temporary worker.
Then came the now-common problems of wage arrears and forced overtime.
Mu Jianghe, who had just entered the workforce, didn't know how to resolve the issue. Sun Xingmin proactively helped him find arbitration and later even hired a lawyer.
After a while, the two of them fell in love.
Later, although Mu Jianghe failed to get his hard-earned money back, he successfully turned the boss into a deadbeat.
Mu Liuyun nodded in deep agreement, after all, his company in his previous life also had such a heartless boss.
If you don't apply for arbitration, he'll keep bullying you. If you do apply for arbitration, he'll become a deadbeat and still refuse to pay.
There are far too many of these kinds of shrewd, unyielding people in the world.
Sister Wang probably had a similar experience, and she gritted her teeth as she listened: "It's good that you've all come here now, and even set up a fishpond."
Upon hearing about the fishpond, Mu Jianghe and Sun Xingmin gave a wry smile: "The fish from that fishpond aren't easy to sell. Most people in the neighborhood raise their own fish, and the factories won't buy them because they don't offer enough. They're just barely making ends meet."
Upon hearing this, Mu Liuyun couldn't help but look down and noticed that there were five dishes and three fish on the table.
It's clear that making a living from this fishpond isn't easy.
"Me too! I thought I could come back, open a small shop, and live off the rest of my life. But after a week back, I've spent almost 100,000 yuan and only made a few dozen yuan!"
After saying that, Wang Erya, Mu Jianghe, and Sun Xingmin all sighed in unison.
Seeing that everyone at the dinner table had bowed their proud heads in the face of reality, Mu Liuyun suddenly held up a finger: "Hey, I do have a solution."
