Shi Wuqing seemed to have heard nothing. After she finished talking to herself, she walked into the house.
The butler came out quickly and said in surprise:
"Young man, you're back?"
Shi Wuqing subconsciously smiled, but when she thought of the conflict between her brother and her family, she retracted the corner of her mouth that was half raised.
She nodded expressionlessly.
The butler seemed to be hesitant to speak as he led him inside. Finally, in front of the restaurant, he couldn't help but say, "Young Master, please don't be angry with the master and his wife. They actually still care about you very much..."
"I understand." Shi Wuqing walked in without looking back.
Meng Xi followed behind with a gloomy expression. The housekeeper couldn't see him. Halfway through, he suddenly remembered something and changed direction, passing through Meng Xi's body.
Meng Xi's expression became even worse.
There has never been a more clear moment than now that he realized that he was dead.
Completely disappeared from this world.
Meng Xi stood outside the exhibition hall, stopped, and did not move for a while.
When Shi Wuqing went in, she found that there were not only the original owner's parents in the house, but also an unexpected person.
The man in black casual clothes was sitting at the side of the dining table, talking to Meng's father sideways.
From Shi Wuqing's perspective, he could only see his sharp and deep profile, and the slightly smiling corners of his lips.
Although the man was smiling, Shi Wuqing still felt a sense of danger and oppression as if facing the abyss in the first second she saw him. This was not something the man did intentionally, but was the temperament that came with him as he had been in a high position for a long time.
Don't deceive him, don't try to guess about him, and don't think you can get into his heart - this is the warning from the brain that everyone who sees him will receive.
As if he had noticed Shi Wuqing's gaze, the man stopped talking and turned to look over—
A pair of black, unfathomable eyes, the moment they looked into each other's eyes, a terrifying feeling as if one had been completely seen through arose spontaneously.
The male lead is Mu Jinyan.
Shi Wuqing froze there for a moment.
But after seeing that it was her, the man's smile became much more genuine: "Xi, Ken is back?"
It was actually a somewhat teasing tone.
Shi Wuqing slowly found her way back to her language. She blinked her purple eyes and asked, "Why are you here?"
Mu Jinyan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Don't you welcome me?"
"Yes, a little bit." Shi Wuqing tried to figure out how the two of them got along.
But he didn't expect that as soon as he finished speaking, Father Meng's face darkened: "How dare you talk like that, you bastard? You just came back and you're asking for a beating?"
Shi Wuqing could see that he was not really angry, but was just saying it for Mu Jinyan to see - the Meng family was also a wealthy family, but it was far inferior to the Mu family, which was all-powerful.
Not to mention, the person sitting here is Mu Jinyan, who controls most of the Mu Group’s shares and is rumored to be ruthless.
Shi Wuqing walked to the table and sat down casually: "I didn't come back to listen to you talking about this."
Meng Xi is gentle and obedient most of the time, but once it comes to his favorite acting career, he will become perverse and rebellious.
Veins popped out on Mr. Meng's forehead, and an unknown light flashed in Mu Jinyan's eyes. He just looked at him with a smile and said nothing.
"Okay, okay, your son has finally come back, so don't be angry! Xiaoyan is the same, Xiaoxi is just joking with you. When he saw you coming, he didn't say it, but he was so happy in his heart!" Meng's mother quickly spoke to ease the atmosphere.
With Meng Mu's protection, the meal was relatively peaceful.
After dinner, Shi Wuqing was assigned to see Mu Jinyan off.
The two walked out side by side.
"Where's the surprise?" Mu Jinyan suddenly asked when they were about to leave the door.
Shi Wuqing paused for a moment, not knowing what he said, but didn't show it.
She frantically pondered what this meant.
surprise?
Did Meng Xi say she was going to give him a surprise?
——Oh no, how did she know what the surprise was? Even if she knew, she didn’t prepare for it!
"Hmm?" Her silence aroused Mu Jinyan's suspicion. He tilted his head, his dark eyes falling on his friend, and his tone was inexplicably dangerous: "Have you forgotten?"
Shi Wuqing said dryly, "No."
"Then take it out." Mu Jinyan's back was to the light, his eyes hidden in the darkness, making it difficult to see clearly: "You know what the consequences of lying to me are."
“…” The fog cleared.
Suddenly I started to wonder how the original owner managed to act under Mu Jinyan's nose for so long before being exposed!
She felt like she was finished now!
I have no idea what a "surprise" is!
"Xi." The man was much taller than her. When he leaned over, he brought with him a terrifying sense of danger, like a beast with bared fangs. He looked down at her, "Speak."
silence.
Shi Wuqing's heart was beating fast. Just when she was about to say something, a dissatisfied voice suddenly came from the side: "Surprise? Didn't you see it already?"
It’s Meng Xi.
His tone was as cold as ice: "What an eyesore."
Meng Xi no longer cares about the friendship he once had with Mu Jinyan.
All he wanted now was to kick away this man who was so close to his sister and making her so nervous!
