From France?
Because of her own experiences, Ye Xinning had a different understanding of France, so when she heard Mu Chaochao say that she had returned from France, Ye Xinning's first reaction was surprise, "You came back from France?"
"Hmm." Mu Chaochao was also surprised by Ye Xinning's surprise. "What's wrong? Why are you so surprised by France, Attorney Ye?"
"It's nothing, my father's home is in France."
Ye Xinning said this briefly before changing the subject, "If there's anything you need me to do, just let me know. Do you need a knife? I'll go find one for you."
Mu Chaochao saw that she didn't say much or ask any questions.
Ye Xinning found the graphic designer who unpacked the packages.
He handed the knife to Mu Chaochao, saying, "Attorney Mu, here you go."
Mu Chaochao smiled and thanked her, "Thank you, Attorney Ye. I'll send it over as soon as I'm done with it."
"You're welcome, please use it. We have more here."
Mu Chaochao smiled, said nothing more, nodded and left.
Ye Xinning stood there, lost in thought, looking in the direction Mu Chaochao had left.
...
After get off work that evening, Shen Lin came to pick her up. Ye Xinning went back to Ming Mansion with him. After dinner, she sat on the sofa and watched Shen Lin sitting there talking to someone on the phone.
Ye Xinning just stared at him blankly, and even after Shen Lin hung up the phone, she still hadn't come out of her deep thoughts.
"What are you thinking about?" Shen Lin walked over and took her hand.
Ye Xinning smiled gently, "What's wrong?"
"You've been staring at me the whole time."
"Yes, you didn't see wrong, I really have been watching you the whole time." Ye Xinning didn't deny it.
Shen Lin lowered his head, completely disregarding Aunt Wen and the others who were also in the living room, and left a light kiss on her face.
Is it pretty?
Ye Xinning, "..."
She hadn't expected him to be so serious; her immediate feeling was...
I want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Whether Mr. Shen is good-looking or not is not something I can decide alone; outsiders will naturally have their own opinions. Perhaps we can change the subject now.
Shen Lin laughed, a faint laugh reaching Ye Xinning's ears. Ye Xinning even felt that this man was mocking her.
"Are you laughing at me?" she asked, feigning displeasure.
Shen Lin's hand rested on her abdomen, his voice even softer than before, "I was just thinking, Ningning seems to have become much more interesting since she got pregnant?"
"Don't you like it?"
"I love so much."
Ye Xinning nodded in satisfaction upon receiving this answer.
"Did you know? We got a new lawyer at our firm today."
"Really? That's perfect, then you can delegate some of your previous work."
Shen Lin had always been worried that she was working too hard, and now that she was pregnant, he wished she could put down all her work and go home to rest.
"Well, our new lawyer is not only very beautiful, but what surprised me the most is that she's from France."
"France?"
"Yes, that's why I was saying, is there some special connection with France? Most of the people I've been meeting lately are from there."
"Well, how did you feel about our first meeting?"
"They were very nice, very warm and polite."
"That's good. I hope you get along well with your new colleagues."
Ye Xinning liked this sentence, so she leaned forward and kissed Shen Lin's lips. "Thank you."
"By the way, who called you just now? You talked for a long time."
"It's Gu Shilin."
"Did Gu Shilin call because he has something important to tell you?"
"Next month is the anniversary of my mother's death, and Gu Shilin is asking my aunt to come over."
"Oh, I see." Ye Xinning remembered. Indeed, it was early August now, and the anniversary of Shen Lin's mother's death was in early September.
"I'm sorry, I've been so busy lately, I forgot about it."
The anniversary of Shen Lin's mother's death has always been an unhealed wound in Shen Lin's heart. Whenever it is mentioned, Shen Lin will be sad for a long time.
Chen Lin rested his chin on her head and gently rubbed it. "It's okay. With you, I've been able to heal myself from many things in the past."
From the moment he met Ye Xinning to the moment he lost his memory in a car accident, this love not only did not disappear, but became even deeper and more inseparable. Her appearance changed her a lot and also redeemed him.
"When are your aunt and uncle coming? I'll stop working and go with you to pick them up."
"Okay, I'll ask you in detail later and then tell you."
"good."
...
After chatting with Shen Lin for a while, Ye Xinning went back to her bedroom, while Shen Lin went to his study to work.
Back in her bedroom, Ye Xinning had just finished showering when she received a call from Ye Rouxin.
"Ningning, what are you busy with?"
"Nothing much, just came out of the shower. Mom, what are you busy with?"
"I didn't do anything. I just went downstairs to get some water and then I got a call from Yanzhi."
Huo Yanzhi's phone call...
Ye Xinning lowered his head and remained silent for a second before continuing what he had just said.
"Hmm, why are you calling? Is something urgent?"
"His wedding with Mu Yinjing is set for next Friday."
The wedding is next Friday? That's a bit fast, but no matter what, it has nothing to do with her right now.
"Okay, I understand." Her words were simple, just a few words in response. This attitude made Ye Rouxin hesitate about whether to continue.
The silence between the two women revealed their feelings at that moment. Finally, Ye Xinning spoke first, breaking the silence.
"Mom, we are mother and daughter. If you have anything to say to me, you can just be direct. You don't need to overthink it."
"Sigh." Ye Rouxin sighed softly before continuing, "Originally, I didn't want to talk about this kind of thing and affect your mood, but after thinking about it, I still feel that I should say a few words. Huo Qijun and I did have a relationship, and he deserved to go to jail for his mistakes. But in the past few years, Huo Yanzhi has been very good to me and has truly treated me as his sister-in-law, so I will go to his wedding."
"Okay. Mom, you can go if you want. It's your decision."
"And what about you?"
"I?"
"Yes, Yanzhi called me just now. Although he didn't say it directly on the phone, I know he wants you to go. Do you want to go?" Ye Rouxin said on the other end, asking the last question cautiously.
