Chapter 585: Continuous Flow
Xiao Muzhen glanced at Xun Zi meaningfully, then smiled and said, "Mom, do you want me to call the family doctor to come over and take a look?"
"No, no, your dad and I have something to do. Please sit with Mr. Shi for a while."
After saying that, Xun Zi directly pulled Xiao Tuo away.
The living room fell into silence, and the atmosphere between the two became a little awkward.
Shi Yiheng looked at her and said with a smile: "Long time no see, what have you been busy with recently?"
"I'm not busy. I've been unemployed recently and stay at home all day." Xiao Muzhen walked over and sat down opposite Shi Yiheng, looking at him and said.
"Are you interested in working for Shi's?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Xiao Muzhen's eyes, and then he shook his head and said, "No, I want to rest for a while."
Shi Yiheng's eyes flashed with disappointment, and he lowered his eyes and said, "You still haven't gotten over your last relationship?"
Xiao Muzhen was stunned for a moment, then realized that he had misunderstood. He shook his head and said, "No, I have other plans."
"All right."
The two of them fell silent. After a while, Shi Yiheng finally couldn't help but say, "Mu Zhen, I still say the same thing. If you plan to start a new relationship, I hope you can consider me first."
Meeting his serious eyes, Xiao Muzhen's hands hanging by her side tightened unconsciously.
"Shi Yiheng, I don't deserve this from you. You deserve someone better."
He used to be a movie star, and now he is the head of the Shi family. As long as he wants, there are many outstanding women who want to be with him.
"Mu Zhen, I hope you won't say such things again. You can refuse my feelings, but you must not let me be with anyone else. Don't you understand? To me, other women are no different except you."
He has persisted for so many years. Even if Xiao Muzhen is unwilling to be with him now, he can wait. He can afford to wait.
From the moment Xiao Muzhen extended a helping hand to him, he knew that he would only love her in this life and would never fall in love with anyone else.
Seeing the hurt in his eyes, Xiao Muzhen pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry for hurting you."
Shi Yiheng raised a smile and said seriously, "I'm not angry, I just hope you can understand my feelings."
"Yeah, I understand."
The two did not continue this topic and chatted about something else.
In the garden, Xun Zi saw through the window that the two of them were talking happily, and there was satisfaction in his eyes.
Xiao Tuo, who was standing aside, had a dark face. "Azi, Zhenzhen will be angry if you do this. She's grown up and can make her own decisions about her feelings."
Xun Zi rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily, "Let her make her own decision. We respected her idea of getting back together with Huo Yunting before, but in the end, Huo Yunting married another woman while she was unconscious."
Xiao Tuo: “…”
He also didn't expect that Huo Yunting was such a two-faced man. If he had known this, he would never have agreed to let Xiao Muzhen get back together with him.
"But I still think you shouldn't interfere in Zhenzhen's relationship."
"If I don't intervene, she doesn't know how long it will take to get over her last relationship. And you know Shi Yiheng, he has a good personality. At least if Zhenzhen marries him, he won't bully her."
Xiao Tuo frowned, "He does have a good character, but the most important thing is whether Zhenzhen likes him or not."
"Relationships can be cultivated. Just create more opportunities for them to spend time together. Look how well they get along now."
"Okay, don't worry about what young people are doing together. We finally have the chance to take a walk together, so don't worry so much."
Having said that, Xiao Tuo directly pulled Xun Zi away.
It was not until dinner time that Xun Zi and Xiao Tuo came back.
Seeing Xun Zi holding a bouquet of roses, Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but smile teasingly, "Mom, I didn't expect Dad to be quite romantic."
Xun Zi's eyes were filled with smiles. "I'm so envious. Find a boyfriend now and ask him to buy it for you."
As she spoke, her eyes kept glancing at Shi Yiheng's face, and her purpose was self-evident.
Xiao Muzhen was somewhat helpless, "Mom, if you continue like this, I won't come back for dinner next time."
Xun Zi curled her lips and said, "Alright, I'll go up and put the flowers in there first. The food in the kitchen is almost done, you guys go eat first."
After they sat down, Xiao Tuo said with a smile, "Boss Shi, I'll have someone bring two bottles of good wine over so we can have a drink."
"Mr. Xiao, just call me Yiheng. Zhenzhen and I are friends. According to seniority, I have to call you Uncle Xiao."
A hint of satisfaction flashed in Xiao Tuo's eyes, and he smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll call you Yiheng, and you can call me Uncle Xiao."
After three rounds of drinks, the two began to talk about work. After Xiao Muzhen finished eating, he stood up and looked at Xiao Tuo and said, "Dad, I have something to do later, so I'll go back first."
Xiao Tuo nodded, "Okay, go back and be careful."
"Um."
Just as Xiao Muzhen was about to say goodbye to Shi Yiheng, Xun Zi, who was standing opposite him, hurriedly said, "Zhenzhen, it's getting late now. We can't keep Mr. Shi here any longer. Mr. Shi has been drinking and can't drive. Why don't you take him home?"
Xiao Tuo frowned and was about to speak when Xun Zi glared at him and he immediately shut up.
After all, if he offended his wife, he might have to sleep in the study tonight.
Xiao Muzhen looked at Shi Yiheng, and met his gaze, and pursed her lips unconsciously.
"Boss Shi, should I take you home, or should I ask the Xiao family's driver to take you home later?"
Shi Yiheng stood up, his eyes already showing a hint of drunkenness.
"If it's convenient, please excuse me, Miss Xiao."
Xiao Muzhen nodded, "Okay."
Xun Zi and Xiao Tuo sent the person to the door. After seeing Xiao Muzhen's car leave, Xun Zi turned around and walked back with satisfaction.
Xiao Tuo looked at her and couldn't help but said, "Azi, you should stop making decisions about Zhenzhen's affairs in the future. If Zhenzhen really wanted to send Shi Yiheng away, she wouldn't have left early. What if you said that in public and made both Zhenzhen and Shi Yiheng embarrassed?"
"I see. Am I not anxious?"
"Don't rush into a matchmaking. I don't think Zhenzhen has any romantic feelings for Shi Yiheng at all. She has to be willing to do something about it."
Xun Zi snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter who it is, as long as it's not Huo Yunting. I will act according to the circumstances later. You just need to take care of your company."
After saying that, Xun Zi left proudly.
Xiao Tuo looked at her back and couldn't help but sigh.
On the way back, Shi Yiheng sat in the back seat with his eyes a little hazy. He looked at Xiao Muzhen with a bit of aggression, and his emotions were obvious.
"Zhenzhen, I'm sorry. I know I was selfish tonight. I wanted to be alone with you, so I asked you to take me home. If you're busy, you can just drop me off at an intersection where you can get a taxi."
