Pei Yang watched Shen Muzhi's departing figure and said to Gu Chen, "Achen, don't you think Muzhi has been acting strangely lately?"
"Isn't this the same every year around this time?" Gu Chen said meaningfully.
Pei Yang's eyes darkened, and he sighed softly: "Yes, it's almost December, and it will be ten years since Su Yan left."
Gu Chen lowered his eyes slightly, and his expression was somewhat sad.
After a long silence, Pei Yang smiled, put his arm around Gu Chen's shoulder, and said casually, "Come on, I'll treat you to a drink."
Gu Chen picked up his coat, draped it over his arm, shook his head, and said, "No, I'm leaving."
“The third brother is away on a business trip, the fourth brother is acting strangely, and even you aren’t spending time with me?” Pei Yang frowned slightly, somewhat dissatisfied.
Gu Chen smiled faintly, his eyes softening, and said, "Nuan Nuan is coming back today, and I'm going to the airport to pick her up now."
Upon hearing this, Pei Yang withdrew his hand from his shoulder, pushed him out, and shouted, "Hurry up and go, hurry up and go, don't put on that lovey-dovey face in front of me."
Gu Chen smiled and strode out of the club.
When he went outside, he saw Shen Muzhi making a phone call on the stairs. It sounded like he was asking someone to go find that Manager Feng.
Ni Sitian sent him the information, and he hadn't even told Shen Muzhi yet. He didn't expect Shen Muzhi to be so efficient, figuring out who he was looking for on his own.
It seems that Shen Muzhi cares a lot about Ni Sitian's affairs.
After thinking about it this way, Gu Chen felt that things weren't going well.
He walked over to Shen Muzhi, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a faint smile, "It's rare to see you so concerned about anything."
Shen Muzhi put away her phone, turned her head to look at Gu Chen, her dark eyes reflecting the icy blue moonlight, and said in a cold voice, "What do you want to say?"
Gu Chen's smile faded, and he became somewhat serious: "Since Tingchuan isn't here, it's only right that we help Ni Sitian, but..."
"You're overthinking it. I have no interest in Ni Sitian." Shen Muzhi understood what Gu Chen was about to say and interrupted him directly.
Gu Chen was a little surprised. If he had no interest in Ni Sitian, why was he so concerned about this matter?
He knew very well that Shen Muzhi was never a warm-hearted person, so the only explanation was that it was for Ni Sitian's friend, Miss Xiang.
If that's the case, he thinks it's great.
Over the years, Shen Muzhi has lived a life more ascetic than a hermit monk. He probably wouldn't even react if a beautiful woman were naked in front of him, let alone a girlfriend.
Almost ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, but Shen Muzhi has never let go of it.
"Are you still going to the United States this year?" Gu Chen asked tentatively.
Su Yan's accident happened on a flight to New York, and she never came back.
For the past ten years, Shen Muzhi would book the same flight to the United States on the day she had the accident, and then take the return flight back, as if by doing so, Su Yan could also take the return flight back.
But everyone knew that was impossible. The plane crashed into the Pacific Ocean. Several countries dispatched search and rescue teams, but in the end, only some wreckage was found. All 128 people on board were swallowed up in that sea area, and there was no chance of them surviving.
"Isn't Fu Wenwen coming back today?" Shen Muzhi didn't answer Gu Chen's question; his expression was somewhat cold and sharp.
Gu Chen knew that this topic could only be discussed to this point, so he didn't say anything more. He patted Shen Muzhi on the shoulder and walked down the steps.
Shen Muzhi watched Gu Chen drive away, then walked to his car as well.
The driver opened the car door for him, and he sat in the back seat, rolled down the window, and said, "To the city hospital."
Without asking any further questions, the driver drove directly to the hospital.
