Chapter 144 Will we never go back to Country F?
There was warm applause and cheers in the box, but Mu Nanyan seemed to be out of it, her heart was already in turmoil.
Illusions are illusions after all, and they can never go back...
She took a deep breath, stood up, and spoke in a calm but somewhat distant tone:
"It's getting late. I'm going back first."
Su Muyang opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just nodded:
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Mu Nanyan picked up her bag and turned to leave the box. Her back looked lonely, yet determined.
Su Muyang looked at her back, a wave of bitterness welling up in his heart. Even if we could do it all over again, would there be no possibility for the two of us...
Shangguan Jiuze watched Su Muyang let Mu Nanyan leave like that, and he was so anxious in his heart. It was true that the eunuchs were anxious even if the emperor was not.
The atmosphere was already so tense, yet Su Muyang let her go so easily. In his opinion, shouldn't he strike while the iron is hot and firmly capture Mu Nanyan's heart at this moment?
Shangguan Jiuze's face was full of doubt and dissatisfaction, and he couldn't help but ask:
"Why did you just let her go like that?"
A trace of loneliness flashed in Su Muyang's eyes, and he said slowly:
"I don't want to force her. I was indeed wrong to her back then..."
"What happened between you two in college? And from the look on her face, she didn't seem to know that you couldn't drink. Maybe she didn't know that you..."
Shangguan Jiuze was interrupted by Su Muyang before he could finish his words.
Su Muyang looked serious and said in a firm tone:
"Be careful what you say next time, and don't mention me in front of her."
Shangguan Jiuze seemed to understand something suddenly, and after thinking about it in his heart, he tactfully said nothing more. The atmosphere was silent for a while.
————
Mu Nanyan fled from the box in a panic, her heart still beating violently in her chest, as if it was about to break free.
Su Muyang's soulful singing and ardent eyes just now caused a huge uproar in her heart. Those memories that had been deliberately buried came flooding back like a tide, making her unable to bear it for a moment.
After walking out of the box, she leaned against the wall in the corridor, breathing heavily, trying to calm her racing heartbeat.
After a long time, she finally calmed herself down and walked towards the parking lot pretending to be calm.
She got into the car, started the engine and drove towards her studio. The street scenes outside the car window flashed by quickly, but did not distract her at all. Su Muyang's figure continued to appear in her mind.
When she arrived at the studio, Zhou Ruxuan and others had already arrived.
When Zhou Ruxuan saw Mu Nanyan, her eyes lit up immediately. She walked up to her like a happy little bird and hugged her tightly, her voice full of excitement:
"Long time no see, Nan Yan! I really miss you!"
"Long time no see."
Mu Nanyan also hugged her back tightly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.
At this time, other people in the studio also greeted her:
“Grace.”
Half of the people in Mu Nanyan's studio are foreigners. They are used to calling her English name on weekdays. Those kind calls are full of familiar warmth.
Looking at these familiar faces, Mu Nanyan's eyes softened and the smile on her face became more sincere:
"Everyone must have been exhausted from flying today, so let's clean up in the afternoon. I'll treat everyone to a nice dinner tonight to reward you all!"
When everyone heard this, they cheered and their faces were filled with joyful smiles.
At this time, a foreign girl named Lucy winked mischievously and said:
"Grace, then we have to choose a restaurant carefully and have a luxurious meal!"
"No problem, leave it to me!" Mu Nanyan replied with a smile.
At this time, Zhou Ruxuan took Mu Nanyan's hand and walked aside, with a hint of worry in her eyes:
"Nan Yan, why do you look so unwell? Did something happen?"
Mu Nanyan was slightly startled, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. Zhou Ruxuan was still the same as before, always able to keenly perceive the changes in her emotions.
She hesitated for a moment, then finally shook her head:
"It's okay, I'm just a little tired from the journey."
Zhou Ruxuan obviously didn't believe it, but she didn't ask any more questions. She just patted her hand gently.
"If anything happens, please tell me. Don't carry it alone."
"I know."
Mu Nanyan gave her a grateful look. Afterwards, everyone worked together to tidy up the studio.
Seeing the studio gradually becoming neat and orderly, Mu Nanyan nodded with satisfaction and turned to Zhou Ruxuan and said:
"You take everyone to the hotel first. I have to pick up Chenchen and will meet up with you later."
Zhou Ruxuan's eyes lit up and she said excitedly:
"Sure, I haven't seen that little guy Chenchen for a long time, so it's a good opportunity to bring him over to have some fun together."
Afterwards, Mu Nanyan drove to the international kindergarten. Along the way, she felt a little uneasy. Su Muyang's figure appeared in her mind from time to time, and she was secretly worried that she would run into him at the kindergarten gate again.
Fortunately, her worries were unnecessary this time. When she arrived at the kindergarten, she did not see any trace of Su Muyang.
When Chenchen got out of school, Su Xiaonuan's class had not yet ended, so Mu Nanyan successfully picked up Chenchen and drove towards the hotel.
Chenchen, a child with a very good memory, was quick to notice that the car was not heading home. He tilted his head, looked at Mu Nanyan curiously, and asked:
"Sister Yan, this road doesn't seem to be the way home. Where are we going?"
Mu Nanyan smiled gently and explained:
"Your sister Xuan is back from abroad. We are going to have dinner together tonight."
"So that's how it is. I haven't seen Sister Xuan for a long time."
Chenchen's eyes sparkled with anticipation. Mu Nanyan touched Chenchen's head and said softly:
"It's okay. You'll be able to see her more often from now on."
"But hasn't Sister Xuan been working in Country F? Why did she come back suddenly?" Chenchen asked with some confusion.
"Well, it was me who asked her to move the studio back to China." Mu Nanyan answered patiently.
"Then we won't go back to Country F in the future?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, that's it."
At this time, Mu Nanyan noticed that Chenchen seemed a little depressed, and her heart tightened slightly. She quickly asked:
"Baby, do you not like your country? Or do you want to go back to Country F?"
Chenchen quickly shook his head and said seriously:
"No, I like it here very much. My grandma, grandpa, and uncle are here with me. It's just...my godfather is still abroad."
Mu Nanyan was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the person Chenchen couldn't let go of the most in Country F was Cui Hao. A complicated emotion surged in her heart.
"It's okay. If it doesn't work out, we can go abroad to see him when you have a holiday."
