"Chen He...?"
Mu Tingyun was a little surprised.
He guessed that Shen He would be sad, but he didn't expect that his failure to keep his promise would make Shen He so sad that she cried.
The more a woman loves a man, the more her emotions will be magnified by his every move.
Through this incident, Mu Tingyun saw Chen He's surging love for him.
He felt strangely satisfied.
Chen He slowly raised her head, her eyes red from crying. "Mu Tingyun..."
Chen He said aggrievedly, "I got home at nine o'clock last night. As soon as I got home, I had to deal with my selfish father."
“After sending Shen Guanghui away, I didn’t even have time to feel sad, so I ran to the kitchen to make you a birthday cake.”
At this point, Shen He opened the sleeves of her dress, revealing her arms that were scalded and peeling. She felt so wronged that her voice choked with sobs: "I was burned, and you didn't even call me."
Staring at the scar on Chen He's fair arm that was obviously caused by a burn, Mu Tingyun's heart was suddenly touched.
He could have come back last night, but Qin Yinong suddenly had arrhythmia. He was worried that something might happen to Qin Yinong, so he stayed with her in the hospital all night.
It was not until dawn when Qin Yinong's condition stabilized that he rushed back to Qing City.
Mu Tingyun felt uncomfortable when he thought about how Chen He had waited for him all night last night.
For the first time, he felt guilty towards Shen He.
"Chen He, I'm sorry. I finished my work at 11 o'clock yesterday. I thought you were very busy with work recently and was worried about disturbing your rest, so I didn't call you."
"I'm sorry, I was wrong about this." Mu Tingyun walked around behind the desk and pretended to hug Chen He.
But Chen He pushed him away forcefully, accusing him with tears in her eyes: "Mu Tingyun, do you have a dog outside? If you have a new love, just tell me, and I will never bother you again."
Mu Tingyun felt a chill in his heart and a sense of crisis.
He asked Shen He: "Why do you think I have someone outside?"
Worried that Chen He might suspect him, Mu Tingyun felt nervous and told himself not to go to H City to see Qin Yinong again recently.
Even phone calls are best avoided.
Once Chen He discovered the true relationship between Qin Yinong and him and became suspicious, his plan would fail.
Chen He said angrily: "I guessed it!"
Hearing this, Mu Tingyun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Chen He, you are my only lover, I swear." Mu Tingyun raised his right hand and swore, "If I have a dog outside, then I..."
Mu Tingyun suddenly fell silent.
Shen He asked him: "So what do you do?"
Mu Tingyun smiled conceitedly and said, "Then I will be deserted by everyone and die a miserable death!"
Chen He immediately burst into laughter and murmured in a coquettish tone: "Then you better be careful."
As for me, I will definitely make sure that everyone abandons you and that you die a miserable death!
"Not angry anymore?" Mu Tingyun asked while observing Chen He's expression.
Chen He pouted, got up and went to the tea room. When she came back, she was holding a small cake in her hand.
The cake didn't look very good. There was only a thin layer of cream on the cake base, dotted with a few blueberries.
Putting the cake on the table, Shen He said, "I made three in total, and only this one is barely presentable."
After inserting the 28th birthday candle and lighting it, Chen He sang a birthday blessing song for Mu Tingyun.
"Brother Mu, happy birthday, blow out the candles."
When Chen He called him brother, his tone was a little stiff, but it made him seem more immature and childish. It was completely different from the tender and affectionate feeling when Qin Yinong called him.
Hearing the call of "Brother Mu", Mu Tingyun's lower abdomen tightened.
His Adam's apple rolled, and his eyes suddenly became deep as he looked at Chen He.
"Call again." Mu Tingyun's voice was hoarse.
Chen He shook her head and said in a proud tone, "No! You broke your promise last night, don't take advantage of me."
Mu Tingyun smiled, although he was a little disappointed, but the call of "Brother Mu" she just now was enough for him to savor for several days.
Mu Tingyun then lowered his head, blew out the candles, and ate the cake.
To be honest, the cake tasted really ordinary, but Mu Tingyun actually ate a big piece of it.
When he realized how big he was, he found it incredible.
"By the way, are you free tonight?"
Chen He thought Mu Tingyun wanted to date her. Just as she was about to make an excuse, she heard Mu Tingyun say, "My birthday is my mother's memorial day. Every year on my birthday, I accompany my uncle to visit my mother's grave and have a meal."
"I was delayed by work yesterday and couldn't get back to Qing City, so I moved the dinner to tonight."
Mu Tingyun has the closest relationship with Song Jingcheng.
He said: "As you know, my uncle has taken great care of me and has high hopes for me. He is my life mentor and my career idol."
"My uncle's health is not good, Chen He. I want you to accompany me to have a meal with him and let him see what an excellent nephew-in-law I found for him."
Mu Tingyun's words were full of respect for Song Jingcheng, and it was obvious that he really admired his uncle.
The words of refusal were on the tip of Chen He's tongue, but he did a complete about-face and said, "Of course I'm free!"
"Then I'll come pick you up in the evening."
"good."
After Mu Tingyun left, Chen He took a photo of the cake, and also took a photo of his burned arm and the Stella Lou doll.
Chen He updated her Weibo status with the caption: [This was my first time making a cake. Although I ruined several pieces and burned my hand, thankfully someone was kind enough to eat a large piece.]
Qin Yinong set special attention on Chen He.
When she saw this Weibo post, her pretty face instantly turned cold.
Yesterday morning, she also made a cake for Mu Tingyun, but Mu Tingyun only took a few symbolic bites and didn't touch it again!
But the cake made by Shen He was so ugly and hard, and he actually ate one third of it...
Qin Yinong felt a sense of crisis again.
*
As soon as four o'clock passed, Chen He skipped work and went home. After getting ready, it was already half past five.
Having dinner with Song Jingcheng is considered a family dinner, so you can't dress too formally, but you can't dress too casually either.
Chen He chose a delicate pink suit, tied up her long hair, and put on delicate smoky makeup.
Su Jin saw Chen He dressed beautifully and elegantly. She asked in surprise, "You are dressed so beautifully. Are you going on a date? Or are you going to the Mu family?"
"Mu Tingyun wants to take me to dinner with his uncle." Thinking of something, Chen He asked her grandmother, "Grandma, have you prepared the calming aromatherapy I asked you to prepare last time?"
"I made it a long time ago, but I just forgot to give it to you." Su Jin went back to the room and got a small cloth bag.
She handed the cloth bag to Chen He and told her, "This is the aromatherapy I prepared according to Mr. Song's symptoms. Let him try it for a few days. If it works, let him prepare it himself according to the recipe."
Su Jin muttered, "These herbs are not cheap."
Chen He opened the prescription, read it quickly, and said with a smile, "Okay!"
