Chapter 1597 Are you here to secretly miss me? (1)
It was almost eight o'clock when "the scourge of the world" Musijue returned to Dingya Villa.
The moment the car drove into the villa area, Musijue was somewhat in a trance.
The moment he bought this villa, he knew that one day he would live in it.
This day finally came, but it was different from what he imagined.
He thought he would bring Xu Youning to move in with him.
But now, Xu Youning is lying unconscious in the hospital, and he is the only one who has returned to this place.
Isn't this cruel to him?
Seeing that Mu Sijue had been silent, the driver turned around and reminded him: "Brother Qi, we're home."
Musijue came back to his senses——
Yes, we're home.
From now on, this is his home.
Musijue got out of the car and walked through the garden with long legs. Before he entered the door, he heard the sound of hurriedly coming from inside——
"Aunt Zhou, this is not the way to go! Why don't you call Mr. Mu?"
"Yes, ask Mr. Mu when he will be back. If that doesn't work, you can go next door to see Mrs. Lu!"
"There's no need to call, Xiao Qi will come back naturally when he's done with his work." Aunt Zhou was very calm, "If we go to Jian An... it's not impossible, but we can't think about troublesome people for everything!"
The others probably thought what Aunt Zhou said was reasonable, so they didn't say anything anymore.
Musijue frowned, walked in the door, and asked directly: "What's wrong?"
Before anyone could answer, Nian Nian's cry came first.
Aunt Zhou said helplessly: "Xiao Qi, Nian Nian has been crying for nearly half an hour."
Musijue walked straight past: "I'll come."
"Hey, okay." Aunt Li carefully handed Nian Nian to Mu Sijue.
Mu Sijue took Niannian aside, patted his shoulder gently, and coaxed him softly.
Aunt Zhou brought over a bottle of milk at the right time and said, "Nian Nian should be hungry already, but he has been refusing to drink milk just now. Please try feeding it to him."
Mu Sijue took the bottle and brought it to the little guy's lips. The little guy made two "oooh" sounds, and finally bit the pacifier obediently and fell asleep while drinking milk.
Aunt Zhou breathed a long sigh of relief and whispered: "Xiao Qi, take Niannian back to the room and let him sleep by himself. Don't disturb him."
Mu Sijue carried Niannian up to the second floor, but changed his mind temporarily - instead of carrying Niannian to the baby room, he returned to his own room.
Aunt Zhou asked in surprise: "Xiao Qi, what are you...?"
"Niannian sleep with me at night."
Musijue's voice was faint, but very sure.
Aunt Zhou thought for a while and nodded in agreement: "That's fine. You don't have much time to spend with Niannian during the day, so you can make up for it at night."
Mu Sijue carried Niannian back to the room, put the little guy on the bed, and covered him with a quilt.
The little guy woke up once in the middle of the trip, saw Mu Sijue, and closed his eyes obediently.
Aunt Zhou felt relieved when she saw that Mu Sijue took care of Nian Nian, and asked Mu Sijue to go down to eat.
Even with Aunt Zhou accompanying him, Mu Sijue still had little appetite. He ate a few hasty bites and then said he was full again.
Aunt Zhou sighed, looked at Mu Sijue and said, "Xiao Qi, you should know that it's not okay for you to be like this for a long time."
As the saying goes, people are like rice and steel.
Mu Sijue's behavior is actually no different from not eating or drinking.
Aunt Zhou was very worried that if things continued like this, there would be problems with Mu Sijue's health.
When the time comes, who will bear the burden of this family? Who will take care of Nian Nian?
Mu Sijue understood Aunt Zhou's worries and reassured Aunt Zhou, saying: "Aunt Zhou, give me a little more time."
Aunt Zhou also knew that crossing this hurdle was not an easy task for Mu Sijue.
She could only remind Mu Sijue: "Xiao Qi, you must not forget that you still have Nian Nian."
Niannian no longer has his mother by his side, and he needs Mu Sijue.
Therefore, nothing can happen to Musijue.
Mu Sijue nodded and promised: "Aunt Zhou, I will never forget."
At this time, Aunt Li came over and said, "Mr. Mu, Mr. Lu is here."
Mu Sijue raised his head and saw Lu Boyan walking in.
Lu Boyan walked up to Mu Sijue and said directly without mincing words: "I heard from Jian An that your underground wine cellar is well decorated."
Mu Sijue motioned to Lu Boyan to follow him: "Go down and have a look."
Musijue is not a drinker, but he likes to hide wine.
Wine is a very strange thing. The longer it is experienced, the more mellow its taste becomes.
Just like some people in this world.
Lu Boyan glanced at the wine rack, unceremoniously took out a bottle of expensive wine, opened it, poured two glasses, and pushed one glass in front of Mu Sijue.
Mu Sijue looked at the wine glass and smiled helplessly: "Bo Yan, you should know that getting drunk won't solve the problem."
Lu Boyan touched Mu Sijue's cup: "But it can make people forget many things temporarily." Among them, of course, pain is included.
"..."
Mu Sijue had no way to refute, so he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
He closed his eyes and carefully felt the strong smell of alcohol, whizzing past his throat like a sharp knife, and the burning sensation almost exploded in his throat.
Musijue felt that he could bear it, but his eyes turned red uncontrollably.
It turns out that it has reached its limit.
Musijue opened his eyes, smiled bitterly, and murmured: "Many things did not develop as I expected."
Lu Boyan patted Mu Sijue on the shoulder: "But it's not as bad as you imagined."
Mu Sijue never thought that Xu Youning would fall into a coma.
However, he must have thought that he would lose Xu Youning.
Compared with losing Xu Youning, at the moment, no matter what, Xu Youning is still alive and there is hope of waking up.
Therefore, things are indeed not as bad as Musijue imagined.
But Mu Sijue smiled even more bitterly: "I can only comfort myself in this way."
"This is not comfort." Lu Boyan poured another glass of wine for Mu Sijue and emphasized, "This is a fact."
Musijue said nothing and drank the wine silently.
Lu Boyan also accompanied Mu Sijue and had another drink.
After that, the two men had a tacit understanding and stopped drinking.
Lu Boyan still had things to deal with when he returned, and Mu Sijue also needed to take care of Niannian.
They have never been people who can get drunk at will.
Mu Sijue looked at the time, then looked at Lu Boyan, and said, "It's getting late, go back and take a rest. If you have anything else, we'll talk about it tomorrow."
Lu Boyan nodded: "See you tomorrow."
When he got home, the two little guys were already asleep, and only Su Jianan was still busy in the living room.
The two little guys played in the living room for a while before going to bed, and the toys were scattered everywhere.
Lu Boyan took off his coat and walked over to help Su Jianan clean up.
"I'll just come." Su Jian settled down and asked hurriedly, "By the way, how is Si Jue's condition?"
"It's painful, but he's also very sober." Lu Boyan reassured Su Jianan, "He is not a fragile person and will be fine."
"..." Su Jianan pursed her lips and asked again, "Where is Nian Nian, are you okay?"
"Nian Nian is very good. She was already asleep when I came over." Lu Boyan looked at the toys scattered on the floor and frowned, "Just find someone to clean them up. You should go to bed early."
Su Jianan spread her hands helplessly: "If I could sleep, I wouldn't find anything to do for myself."
"..." Lu Boyan stretched out his hand towards Su Jianan, "Follow me."
Su Jianan handed her hand to Lu Boyan and asked curiously: "Where are you going?"
Lu Boyan took Su Jianan straight to the parking lot and motioned for her to get in the car.
Su Jianan became even more curious. She got into the car and fastened her seat belt, but didn't ask any questions, waiting for Lu Boyan to take her to her destination.
In less than thirty minutes, Lu Boyan's car stopped in front of an old villa.
Although it has been a long time since I came here, Su Jianan will never forget this place.
This is her grandmother's house and the place where she and Lu Boyan first met.
Lu Boyan got out of the car, walked around to the passenger seat and opened the door for Su Jianan.
Su Jianan gathered her coat, got out of the car and followed Lu Boyan into the house.
Although this house has been vacant, Lu Boyan has been hiring people to take care of it. The house still looks perfect and spotless, as if it is still inhabited.
Many childhood memories came to Su Jianan's mind involuntarily.
Memory, grandma is still alive, and Su Jian'an's mother is also in good health. At that time, Su Jian'an's life was filled with only happiness.
Everything that happened in this old house were memories that Su Jianan wanted to cherish for a lifetime.
However, she didn't expect that Lu Boyan would suddenly bring her back.
Lu Boyan looked around the whole house and said, "After returning to China, I come here often."
Su Jianan knew that the "after returning to China" mentioned by Lu Boyan was referring to the period after he returned from the United States and before they got married.
What she was curious about was: "At that time... what were you doing here?"
This villa area is very old, with only some elderly people living there, and some houses have been vacant even longer than Su Jianan's grandmother's house.
Su Jianan couldn't understand, what was Lu Boyan doing here?
Lu Boyan looked at Su Jian'an and said slowly: "Jian An, this is where I met you."
"Huh?" Su Jianan asked with a smile, "So - are you here to secretly miss me?"
At that time, Lu Boyan still had many concerns about his and Su Jianan's future.
Therefore, even though he knew that Su Jianan was in City A, knew where she was and what she was doing, he still did not dare to appear in front of Su Jianan.
Su Jianan also lacked the courage to see Lu Boyan.
Therefore, she understood Lu Boyan's mood at that time.
He should... feel very uncomfortable.
Lu Boyan did not deny it and nodded: "You can say that."
"Well, let me tell you a secret -" Su Jian'an said mysteriously, "Actually, at that time... I also missed you a lot."
Lu Boyan did not doubt the authenticity of Su Jianan's words, but——
He said slowly: "Jian An, this is not the focus of today."
Su Jianan blinked in confusion: "Then you brought me here so late - what's the point?"
