"Come on, drink!" Shanmu raised his glass again, "Drink." Then he suddenly fell on the carpet.
Ouyang Yusheng shook his head and found that she had really fallen to the ground. He immediately went over and said, "Shanmu! What's wrong with you?"
Zhuo Qiang and Lu Yang were also frightened and hurried over. Seeing her standing there motionless, they asked, "Shanmu?"
"Chinese fir?"
Zhuo Qiang checked her breathing and asked, "What the hell?" She was really frightened awake and quickly got up to find the phone.
"Cough, cough, cough!" Shanmu took a deep breath and laughed loudly, "I'm suffocating to death."
Ouyang Yusheng quickly picked her up and said, "I was scared to death."
Lu Yang pushed him away: "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing?" Ouyang Yusheng pounced on him.
Zhuo, who was standing next to him, went up to stop him but was accidentally hit in the chest by his fist: "Ahem, you hit me again." The three of them started fighting again.
Shanmu took a look and felt very sleepy, so he grabbed someone's coat and covered himself with it and continued to sleep.
During the day, the wind blew through the glass. Mu Zishan turned over and felt something pressing on her body. She felt very uncomfortable. She opened her eyes and asked, "Whose legs are these?" She pushed them away with all her strength. Her dry throat made her feel very uncomfortable. "Cough, cough, cough."
The others woke up as well. Zhuo Qiang fetched some water from the kitchen and said, "Drink some water."
Ouyang Yusheng checked his phone and stood up to answer a call. Lu Yang went back to take a shower. Zhuo Qiang lay motionless on the sofa. Aunt Lin came in and said, "Mr. Ouyang, these are your clothes!"
"Well, thank you for your help."
"No trouble," Aunt Lin said, "Then I'll make breakfast for you."
"Auntie Lin, I want to drink the coffee you make." Mu Zishan said.
"OK."
The four of them sat at the table. After last night, they were finally able to sit together quietly. Ouyang Yusheng looked at Mu Zishan, wanting to say something.
Lu Yang drank the milk and poked Zhuo Qiang.
"What are you doing?" Zhuo Qiang asked. "I was just reading the messages someone sent me..." But he understood from the look in his eyes. "Look at me. I forgot to take care of the flowers in the yard. I'm going out to check."
"I'll go out and take a look too." He followed Zhuo Qiang out.
Now that they were alone, he asked, "Before we return to Europe, I want to ask you one more question." When she didn't answer, he continued, "Will you marry me? Come back with me, and when we get there, you can do whatever you want."
"No."
"What do you have to do to be with me?" He looked at her. "I'm clearly in your heart, isn't it?"
Mu Zishan also looked at him: "So what do you want?"
"Marry me and you can have everything you want."
"What do you think you can give me?" Mu Zishan asked him, "Money?"
"At least I love you."
She scoffed. "You just want to possess it, just like you possess other things, to possess something and then put it there to admire."
"You know it's not."
"Think about it from another perspective," Mu Zishan said to him, "You're just like when you were a kid, wanting to escape your current situation, but you can't, so you're just trying to drag a companion into a trapped situation like you."
He didn't like her analogy, but he had to admit that the whole family had set up a big prison for him. Seeing that his face was not very good, she asked, "Are you in trouble?"
"They forced me to marry a girl, she was European."
"The reason you left here was to meet her?"
"That's right."
She nodded. "I hope she's a woman."
"What would you do if I got married?"
"Of course I bless you."
"So, you still like Lu Yang?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Didn't you stop Lu Yang's wedding?"
"You're like a little kid."
Ouyang Yusheng looked at her deeply: "At least I can see from your eyes that you once liked me."
She dodged again: "Maybe."
"Even if you say one word, I will stay for you."
She was silent.
"Maybe I didn't understand them both before, but now I understand why you want to stay with them instead of me."
"Your cell phone is ringing!" Mu Zishan reminded.
Ouyang Yusheng looked over and saw it was a call from the housekeeper. Someone in Europe was urging him to return. He had wanted to bring her back to Europe with him last time, but she had left without saying goodbye because of Lu Yang. Now, the family's mission fell on him, and he didn't have time to wait for her. Now that he had lost his freedom, he didn't want her to be imprisoned by the entire family like him, so he chose to let her go and even conceal her existence.
He stood up and walked over to her. "I want one last kiss goodbye." He moved closer.
She slowly leaned forward, kissed his cheek, and said, "Goodbye!"
Finally satisfied, Ouyang Yusheng put on his coat and walked out of the courtyard. Outside, Zhuo Qiang and Lu Yang looked curiously at Mu Zishan behind him. She seemed a little disappointed: "Ouyang, thank you!" Although she didn't know whether she was thanking him because he never forced her to do anything, or because he told her about him, she just wanted to say thank you.
He turned around and gave a very generous smile.
Zhuo Qiang didn't understand why this guy just let go so easily. He pulled Lu Yang and asked, "What's going on?"
"How should I know?" He had no clue either.
The housekeeper outside had been waiting for a long time. Seeing him come out, he finally felt relieved: "Master!"
"Let's go."
"yes."
Seeing that the two of them hadn't recovered from their shock, Mu Zishan asked, "Are you stupid?"
"I'm talking to you!" Zhuo Qiang walked in and followed Mu Zishan like a curious baby. "Tell me, what did you guys talk about in there just now? Why did he just leave like that?"
"Want to know?"
"I want to know." He sat next to her.
"Why should I tell you?" she asked.
Lu Yang walked in, tidied up the things on the table, and listened to their conversation.
"Ouyang Yusheng, this guy always does whatever he wants. He's a big shot back home," he said, looking at her curiously. "Why doesn't he resort to trickery when he's with you?"
"Then you'll have to ask him."
"He said you knew each other when you were little. Could you be childhood sweethearts?" He thought for a moment. "That's impossible. He grew up abroad, and you lived in Chongqing, didn't you?"
"Zhuo Qiang, if you have this much time, you might as well go help Lu Yang wash the dishes."
"Do you still need me for something as trivial as washing dishes?" He checked his phone. "This Ouyang Yusheng actually went straight to the airport."
Mu Zishan rolled his eyes at him and said, "It seems like you know everything."
