Chapter 12 The troublemaker is eating your rice!

Shen Zhi explained thoughtfully: "I am also thinking about you. It would be troublesome for you to come here to change clothes if you live in the study."

Mu Chiye gritted his teeth and said, "Then I still have to thank you, right?"

If he didn't know Shen Zhi's true thoughts, he would have believed it. He was afraid of getting himself into trouble and threw him and his clothes out of the room that originally belonged to him?

It’s really thanks to Shen Zhi that he could do this.

Even if she was betrayed by Shen Zhi, she would have to count the money for him.

Shen Zhiyi said: "Gifts given by friends should be cherished and kept properly."

Shen Zhi kept taking out Mu Chiye's clothes one by one, and the closet was almost empty.

He dragged the box to the closet, took out the things inside, looked at each one carefully before putting them away, and muttered to himself, "Especially such an expensive gift."

Mu Chiye suddenly thought of his watch that Shen Zhi had taken away, "So, you took good care of the watch I gave you?"

Mu Chiye raised his eyebrows.

Shen Zhi paused for a moment and then returned to normal, his dark eyes full of sincerity, "Of course."

A poor guy like Dou Chiyu would take great care of the famous watch that brought him honor.

Mu Chiye snorted coldly, turned around and left.

Shen Zhi muttered that Mu Chiye was like a human lie detector and was specifically targeting him.

Shen Zhi's phone finally received Pei Yufeng's message.

"I'm fine."

Shen Zhi stood up and closed the closet door, then typed a reply slowly, "Brother Pei, where are you?"

While waiting for a reply, Shen Zhi logged into his Weibo account, reposted a few trending searches, replied to a few fans, and then left.

Pei Yufeng hasn't replied yet.

Shen Zhi pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment and then called: "Brother Pei, are you free tomorrow? I have a few questions I want to ask you."

Although Shen Zhi's talent in design is not ignited, it does not prevent him from using it as an excuse to meet Pei Yufeng.

Being plagiarized means that it is another person's idea plus one's own. This is like a cuckoo occupying a cuckoo's nest, which is unbearable.

About two or three minutes later, Pei Yufeng sent Shen Zhi an address.

Shen Zhi immediately replied: "Thank you, Brother Pei, see you tomorrow, bye cat jpg."

In order to meet Pei Yufeng earlier, Shen Zhi got up early.

Running downstairs in a hurry.

Shen Zhi wore a short-sleeved white shirt and black pants. Although he was young, this simple combination made him look energetic and youthful.

It's like going on a date with someone you like, full of energy.

"You're up so early?" Mu Chiye took off her apron, saw Shen Zhi's new clothes, and said to Shen Zhi, who was a little too active.

Shen Zhi didn't care about Mu Chiye, so he walked to the door to change his shoes, and said without raising his head: "I have an appointment with Brother Pei today."

After Shen Zhi changed his shoes, his hand fell on the door handle, and he turned his head to see two bowls of delicious clear soup noodles on the dining table.

Mu Chiye smiled as Shen Zhichong sat down and prepared to eat noodles, "I won't have breakfast. Brother Pei will treat me. I'll be back later."

Without waiting for Mu Chiye's reply, Shen Zhi shrugged, thinking that Mu Chiye didn't sleep well last night and was in a bad mood when he woke up. He didn't dare to disturb him and walked out with light steps.

Mu Chiye held the chopsticks, hot steam curled up from the noodles, blurring Mu Chiye's expression, which seemed a little indifferent at this moment.

It was not until the door slammed shut that Mu Chiye began to move.

The noodles are smooth and chewy. When the freshly cooked noodles go into your stomach, all your internal organs are revitalized by the warmth.

Mu Chiye took a few bites and felt that the taste was not right. He drank some noodle soup, but the taste was still bland.

Mu Chiye added some salt to increase the saltiness, but after taking another sip it was too salty.

Mu Chiye had a big meal and was in no mood to eat breakfast.

The vibrating phone received a message from Du Shi, who asked Mu Chiye if he wanted to get together to celebrate the huge sales of the new product from G, which he had taken over.

Maki Chiye replied "OK".

Mu Chiye cleaned up the dining table, stood up and walked towards the study.

G's pilot sunglasses are very popular, especially after being reposted and recommended by several internet celebrities with millions of fans, many people have bought them.

The first batch of pre-sales has achieved good results, and Makiye is considering adding more production lines.

Maki Chiye held a brief meeting to clarify the division of tasks and announced a 20% salary increase during this period to boost employee motivation.

The meeting ended with the Mu Chi Ye Lecture.

After sitting for a long time, his lumbar spine felt numb. Mu Chiye looked at his cramped office environment and thought to himself that he was really crazy. Why couldn't he just lie down comfortably in the bedroom?

Shen Zhi is not here again.

Mu Chiye shook his sore neck and was almost dragged into the ditch by Shen Zhi.

Even if Shen Zhi was there, he could work in the bedroom, because the bedroom was his own, not Shen Zhi's.

Mu Chiye lay down on the soft mattress with a notebook in hand.

The bones made a teeth-grinding sound and Mu Chiye tightened them comfortably. He hadn't exercised for a long time and his bones felt a little crisp.

Mu Chiye pinched the muscles on his arms and found that they were indeed not as tense as before.

The faint cool fragrance from the bed spread to Mu Chiye's nose, with a hint of sweetness.

The smell is exactly the same as Shen Zhi's. This bed is almost becoming Shen Zhi's own nest.

There is not even a trace of the original owner's scent.

Mu Chiye rubbed his nose and suddenly thought of something.

Mu Chiye got out of bed and walked to the closet. He wanted to see what valuable things Pei Yufeng had given him.

Mu Chiye scanned the area critically. There were many types of items. The designs of cups, bracelets, collar clips, cufflinks, etc. were very immature and looked like early works. The most common items were sunglasses. From complex to simple, it was clear that they had their own style.

Makiye took out a mug and went downstairs to wash it and use it.

Half of the sky was dyed orange, and Mu Chiye saw that it was about time, so he set off for the dinner place.

Not only Du Shi, but also Xia Xuan.

Du Shi saw Mu Chiye was alone and asked in surprise, "Xiao Zhi didn't come with you?"

Xia Xuan also glanced behind Mu Chiye and felt empty.

Maki Chiye sat down calmly, "Children have their own social circles, why do they have to stay with a piece of bacon like you?"

You are the one with the sharp tongue.

Du Shi shut his mouth and had no intention of stepping up to provoke Mu Chiye.

What are you thinking about with left-behind children?

Xia Xuan answered Du Shi's question, "Xiao Zhi was with his colleague. I saw them at a couple's restaurant when I came here."

Xia Xuan's words seemed to say something but also seemed to say nothing.

A few days after Xia Xuan's mother passed away when he was a child, his father brought back Xia Minghao and his stepmother, who were about the same age as him.

Xia Yiran has a strong personality, and Xia Xuan lost the protection of his mother. Xia Minghao vented all the grievances he had suffered in the past on Xia Xuan. Xia Minghao's mother favored Xia Minghao, and Xia's father also had complaints about Xia Yiran's only son, but they pretended not to see it.

Mu Chiye, who had a bad temper, stood up for him and asked Grandpa Mu to take Xia Xuan to the Mu family to raise him for a while.

Xia Xuan was grateful to Mu Chiye, but also inevitably moved.

As for Bai Yueguang, whom he worshipped as a god, Xia Xuan hoped that Shen Zhi would give more.

So he didn't like Shen Zhi's close relationship with other men, and he was worried that Mu Chiye would be hurt in this relationship.

Xia Xuan met Mu Chiye's cautious gaze calmly with a calm expression.

The two people's eyes met, and neither of them spoke first.

"Oh," Du Shi said in surprise, "I didn't expect Xiaozhi to have such a strong romantic relationship."

Du Shi urged Mu Chiye, "Hey, Brother Ye, now is your chance to get rid of Xiaozhi. Xiaozhi has found someone she likes, so you don't have to be forced to take responsibility. Master Mu will have nothing to say."

Xia Xuan frowned upon hearing this and looked at Du Shi in confusion, "What... do you mean?"

He had never heard of what Du Shi said. It seemed that Mu Chiye and Shen Zhi were not who they appeared to be.

The side of Mu Chiye's face was coated with a layer of light from the dazzling incandescent light, as if covered with a thin layer of ice, freezing cold.

Mu Chiye's expression was calm, and he curled his lips, "That being said, I treat Shen Zhi as my own brother, so I have to carefully examine his character. The one Shen Zhi saw today who was so arrogant, I can't play with him."

Mu Chiye's considerate look made Xia Xuan look at him twice, but he didn't say anything in the end.

Du Shi thought about it and it was true. Shen Zhi was indeed too noisy and was not suitable for him because of his age.

Du Shi couldn't help but look sideways. The one who was saved by Shen Zhi was Mu Chiye. If it were someone else, they would have given Shen Zhi some money and run away when Shen Zhi asked them to marry them.

It all came down to Mu Chiye. Despite Shen Zhi's outrageous demands, Mu Chiye was able to endure them and consider Shen Zhi so much.

Du Shi patted Xia Xuan on the shoulder and said, "Brother Ye can't be with Xiao Zhi. How can I sacrifice myself to repay a favor? That's too stupid. If Xiao Zhi hadn't saved Brother Ye, Brother Ye wouldn't have had the energy to play with him."

Du Shi's words overturned all of Xia Xuan's previous assumptions about Shen Zhi.

These were apparently normal words, but when Xia Xuan heard them, they sounded chilling for no reason.

He thought Mu Chiye and Shen Zhi were a couple. In order to protect Mu Chiye, he was always on guard against Shen Zhi's inappropriate behavior.

Now it is quite the opposite.

It turns out that Shen Zhi was the one who was willing to do it. Mu Chiye was planning to get rid of Shen Zhi, and the people around Mu Chiye kept it a secret.

Young Shen Zhi dived into an ocean called Muchiye. He floated up and down but couldn't see the end, not to mention the man-made reefs inside.

Xia Xuan's breathing became indescribably heavy.

One could even say that Shen Zhi was the victim of this precarious relationship.

Xia Xuan sat silently in his seat, moving his eyes slowly.

"You only regard Shen Zhi as your younger brother?" Xia Xuan repeated, as if he had refreshed his understanding of Mu Chiye again.

Makiye did not change for anyone, still doing his own thing and making every decision calmly.

Xia Xuan still remembered that when Shen Zhi left, she told him with a smile that she liked Mu Chiye the most.

But the people Shen Zhi likes only see him as a burden.

Xia Xuan pinched his finger bones, and there was a muffled sound, just like oiling an old machine.

Mu Chiye's facial features are three-dimensional and his outline is strong. When he doesn't smile, he looks like frozen ice, which makes people feel frightened for no reason.

“I just treat him as a younger brother.”

Every word sounded inexplicably solemn.

The door opened at an inopportune time, and Shen Zhi, who rushed over with hot cheeks, looked at Mu Chiye at a loss.

The private room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at the uninvited guest with different eyes.

Mu Chiye met Shen Zhi's clear eyes, his lips trembled, then he looked away and took a sip of black coffee.

Not very tasty.

Du Shi swallowed, broke the awkward atmosphere with two dry laughs, and greeted Shen Zhi.

"Xiao Zhi, here I bring the bag I promised to buy for you. See if you like it," Du Shi handed the platinum bag he had prepared in advance to Shen Zhi.

Shen Zhi took it with both hands and held it in his arms, "Thank you, Brother Du, I like it very much."

Du Shi saw Shen Zhiqiang smiling happily and shook his head guiltily, "As long as you like it, that's good. As long as you like it, that's good."

Shen Zhi's eyes were filled with tears that were about to fall. The crystal clear tears soaked his black stone eyes, making people's hearts writhe.

Xia Xuan stood up and looked at Shen Zhi worriedly. Shen Zhi must have heard what Mu Chiye said.

Although Xia Xuan cared about Mu Chiye, he also felt subtly dissatisfied with him at this moment.

Shen Zhi sensed the overly weird atmosphere and didn't want to stay any longer. "If nothing else, I'll leave first. My colleagues are waiting for me outside."

Shen Zhi took two steps back, turned around and opened the door.

"Xiao Zhi," Xia Xuan couldn't help but call out and took two steps forward.

Mu Chiye sat steadily in his seat and said indifferently, "Don't worry about him."

Shen Zhi will know it sooner or later. He did not hide it on purpose. It is just a matter of time before Shen Zhi can accept it.

It would be good for both Shen Zhi and him to make it clear.

Shen Zhi paused slightly, then quickened his pace after hearing Mu Chiye's words.
