In the western restaurant with an elegant environment, the waiters served the dishes they ordered one by one, and each dish was a taste that Mu Nuan liked.

"Mu Nuan, do you still remember this Western restaurant?" Qi Junxian seemed to remind him intentionally, "I know... you like the food here."

Mu Nuan's eyes flashed over each dish, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Brother Junxian, thank you for remembering these! But... nothing in a person's life is unchanging. Appearance, habits, tastes and even personality always change with some things and people." She paused, "I did like these dishes very much before, but now..." She didn't finish the rest of the words, just shook her head and looked at Qi Junxian, with obvious meaning.

Qi Junxian was also a smart person. He suddenly felt stiff when he heard Mu Nuan say this. An indescribable bitterness and sorrow spread in his heart, and the initial joy disappeared.

He was silent for a long time before sighing heavily, "Mu Nuan, I know that it was all caused by me! I don't expect to go back to the past, I just want to recall the past. And... I want to thank you! If it weren't for you, maybe I'd still be in prison now."

Mu Nuan was stunned for a moment, then understood his intention, and then said, "Brother Junxian, you don't have to thank me! You also know that in fact... I can't help you with my ability. If you want to thank me... just thank Mo Xiangyuan!"

"No!" Qi Junxian said firmly: "If it weren't for you, how could he help me? I and him were strangers at all! He helped me because of your relationship! Mu Nuan, I know that you must beg him!"

Mu Nuan didn't want to deny it, and then nodded, "Brother Junxian, I admit that it was me who begged Mo Xiangyuan. No matter what, I wouldn't watch Qi collapse, nor would I hope my uncle will be ill because of this. If I could do my best, I would definitely not stand by! This is also... the only thing I can do for you!"

"Mu Nuan..." Qi Junxian felt aroused and grabbed her hand, "I know... I know... no matter when, you will not abandon me!" He looked at her emotionally, and the next second, he grabbed his hair fiercely, "I am just a bastard, you are so good, but I don't know how to cherish it! I... I regret it so much!"

"Brother Junxian, don't do this!" Mu Nuan held him and comforted: "If we were really together, maybe I would feel guilty for not being able to help you today. This is great, at least... I can ask Mo Xiangyuan, and I feel very pleased to be able to help you in this way!"

"Mu Nuan...but I..." Qi Junxian shook his head embarrassedly, "I don't want to owe Mo Xiangyuan favors! Anyone can do it, only him!"

Mu Nuan certainly understood Qi Junxian's mentality. She sighed, "Brother Junxian, what's the difference? The fact now is that no one can help you except him! Don't always keep an eye on this matter. Reorganizing Qi is what you need to do now! Please don't let your uncle and aunt down, okay?"

"Mu Nuan, I..."

"Okay, Brother Junxian!" Mu Nuan could almost guess what he said below, so he interrupted without hesitation, "If you really want to thank me, cheer up. Qi needs you!"

***************************************

When she left the Western restaurant, Qi Junxian proposed to send Mu Nuan, but she refused.

She insisted on taking the taxi back by herself. Under Qi Junxian's lost gaze, she reached out to stop a taxi. He watched her open the door, but a second before she sat in, rushed forward, pulled her into her arms, and hugged her tightly...

Mu Nuan didn't expect Qi Junxian to do this at all. At that moment, she was completely stunned. While coming to her senses, she immediately struggled, but was hugged tighter by him. At the same time, his nervous and slightly hoarse voice sounded in her ears, "Mu Nuan, don't move, let me hug you! Just a moment!"

She was stunned, wondering if it was her illusion, but vaguely, she seemed to hear his voice with a hint of crying. At that moment, her heart suddenly softened, and the action of pushing his shoulder also gave up.

Seeing that she did not refuse again, Qi Junxian was immediately delighted. He hugged her tighter and said, "Mu Nuan, this is the last time! Let me hug you for the last time! I promise that I will not let you down and will revive Qi's family!"

After hearing his loud answer, she felt relieved, her mouth couldn't help but curl, and her tight body relaxed, "Brother Junxian, I'll be relieved if you say this!" After saying that, she stretched out her hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally patted his shoulder, "I believe you can do it!"

After seeing off Mu Nuan, Qi Junxian sat in the car and stared blankly for a long time.

He held the phone in his hand. He could no longer remember how many times he pressed the screen and turned it off. The series of mobile phone numbers were asked by his secretary to check that they existed in the phone. After the conversation just now, he felt it was necessary to call the owner of the number.

After dialing the phone, the other side quickly answered, "I am Mo Xiangyuan, who can I ask?"

"..." Qi Junxian hesitated for a moment, but soon said in a deep voice: "I am Qi Junxian!"

There was a moment of silence on the other side of the phone, and then a chuckle came, "Ha... it turned out to be Mr. Qi, which really surprised me! I wonder... what's the price for Mr. Qi to ask me?"

"Mr. Mo, we don't have to beat around the bush! I think... you know very well why I made this phone call!" Qi Junxian deliberately made his voice not have any emotion, but in front of this man, he was three points shorter. In another sense, he was his creditor.

Mo Xiangyuan smiled more and more happily, "Mr. Qi, are you kidding? I'm so stupid. I really don't know... why you called?"

The wording that Qi Junxian had originally thought was suddenly messed up. Facing Mo Xiangyuan's understatement, he seemed to have hit his fist on the cotton, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

After a while of ease, he spoke again, "Mr. Mo, thank you for helping me! But don't worry, I will definitely return that money to you as soon as possible!"

"Oh..." Mo Xiangyuan seemed to suddenly realize his enlightenment, and his light tail sounded long, "So that's what happened! Then Mr. Qi doesn't have to thank me!"

Qi Junxian paused, "Mr. Mo means... to make me thank Mu Nuan?"

"My wife...that's even less necessary!" Qi Junxian obviously felt Mo Xiangyuan's voice colder, "The reason I helped you... is because I don't want her to worry!"

Qi Junxian was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Mo Xiangyuan to say this. He was frozen there for a while. It was not until a while that she found her voice, "Are you telling the truth?"

"What? Is there a problem?" Mo Xiangyuan asked back.

Qi Junxian was silent for a moment and said solemnly: "Mo Xiangyuan, please treat Mu Nuan well? She... is really good! It's really worth it!"

"Ha... Mr. Qi is reminding me? I just don't know what you are?" Mo Xiangyuan's tone was full of contempt.

"..." Qi Junxian was speechless. He knew that he had no identity or position in fact, but he still wanted to say that after all, Mu Nuan married Mo Xiangyuan was indirectly caused by himself. If she was not happy because of this, he would blame himself for the rest of his life.

"Mr. Mo, don't get me wrong. I don't mean anything else when I say that, I just..."

"Enough, Mr. Qi! How I want to treat my wife, there is no need for others to point fingers!" He sneered, "Mr. Qi, you have enough trouble now, I advise you... to take care of yourself!"

Qi Junxian thought of such sarcasm, but when he heard it in his ears, he still couldn't suppress his anger and rushed out, "Mo Xiangyuan, if you don't love Nuan, if you can't treat each other sincerely, then... please let her go! I once felt extremely regretful about losing her. If I still have the chance to be with her in this life, I swear that I will make her happy for the rest of my life and will never let go!"

His words came into Mo Xiangyuan's ears with deep regret. The moment he heard it, a layer of chill was quickly stained with the corners of his eyebrows and his eyes were like sharp arrows unsheathed. His half-closed eyes were so deep that they could not see the bottom. His thin lips were tightly pursed, and his face was sharp. The big hand subconsciously clenched the phone in his hand. The protruding blue veins and white joints revealed his mood at the moment. After a moment of silence, he finally spoke. The cold voice seemed to be coming from hell, and it was even more ridiculous. "Mr. Qi, don't worry! With such an opportunity... I promise you will never have it!"

"Is that true?" Qi Junxian had to admit that when he heard Mo Xiangyuan's words, he was really a little disappointed, but more of it was helpless and self-blame. Instead of hating Mo Xiangyuan, it was him who pushed Mu Nuan to others with his own hands. He was the one who lost the most important person in his life, but... who can blame all this?

There was another silence, and it took him a long time to speak again, "Mo Xiangyuan, remember what you said today! Otherwise... you will definitely regret it!"

*********************************

Hanging up the phone, Mo Xiangyuan's face was as gloomy as a storm. Yang Ning stood quietly beside him, and he knew... Mo Xiangyuan was really angry.

After a while, he asked carefully: "President, what did Qi Junxian say?"

Mo Xiangyuan touched the corner of his mouth, showing a cold and cruel smile, and a little bit of sarcasm, "Hmph, I don't know the sky is so high that I can't tell me that Mo Xiangyuan is a lesson!"

"..." Yang Ning didn't say anything, and quietly waited for Mo Xiangyuan's instructions. This was the tacit understanding he had been with for many years.

Sure enough, he spoke in a deep voice, "Notify the European branch that the plan to acquire Qi's family was officially launched."
