Xu Youning thought for a moment and remembered that he was one of Mu Sijue's most trusted subordinates, and his status could be compared with A Guang's.
However, it seems that she has never seen him in City A.
The man thought Xu Youning didn't remember him, so he didn't mind and re-introduced himself openly: "Sister Youning, I am Ajie!"
"I remember you." Xu Youning looked at Ajie eagerly, "Have you always been in G City?"
Ajie knew why Xu Youning asked this, his eyes dimmed a bit, and then he nodded and said: "Four years ago, when Brother Qi was about to go to City A, my mother found out that there was something wrong with her body, and I couldn't follow Qi.
Brother, let’s go to City A together.”
"So that's it." Xu Youning asked politely, "How is your mother's health?"
Ajie's eyes darkened and his voice lowered: "My mother... left at the beginning of the year."
"..."
Xu Youning was stunned and moved his lips, wanting to apologize to Ajie.
Ajie smiled, shook his head and said, "Sister Youning, it's okay. I'm not sad anymore, you don't have to feel anything. And when I see you and Brother Seven, I feel like I'm seeing my family!"
Before Xu Youning could answer, Mu Sijue said: "Get in the car first."
"Okay!" Ajie hurriedly opened the door of the back seat and motioned for Mu Sijue and Xu Youning to get in the car.
Xu Youning did not ask Mu Sijue where they were going. She believed in Mu Sijue's arrangement.
Instead, she chatted with Ajie all the way.
Through chatting along the way, Xu Youning knew that in the past four years, Ajie had visited her in city A several times. Aguang called him some time ago and found out how happy he was when he found out that she was awake.
Ajie also said that this time he would go back to City A with Musijue.
Xu Youning thought it was Mu Sijue's idea, but he didn't expect that it was Ajie who suggested it.
Ajie said that in the past few years when her mother was ill, Mu Sijue helped him contact hospitals and find doctors, and also found a professional and caring caregiver for his mother, who did a better job than him, a son.
At this point, Ajie said generously: "Brother Qi, Sister Youning, you need me now, of course I will go back to City A with you to help you without saying anything!"
Xu Youning smiled and glanced at Mu Sijue secretly, somewhat surprised.
Musijue looks cold and hard on the surface, like a frozen stone. At first glance, apart from being good-looking, he has basically nothing to offer.
Xu Youning even believed for a time that Mu Sijue must be very popular!
However, the reality was very different from what she thought.
When one of his subordinates' mother got sick, Mu Sijue helped with everything from the hospital to the nursing staff, which proved that he was not a cold-hearted person, he just seemed difficult to get along with.
His subordinate, who had been away from him for four years, knew what situation he was facing and decisively chose to help him.
Musijue may not be popular, but he has won the hearts of the people.
So, what on earth was Kang Ruicheng thinking when he arranged for her to be undercover next to Mu Sijue?
Why did Kang Ruicheng think that she wouldn't be tempted by such a man?
Xu Youning thought about it, the corners of his lips raised crazily, not to mention how sweet it was in his heart.
"You Ning."
"You Ning?"
Mu Sijue called Xu Youning twice, but she didn't respond.
Ajie also tried calling: "Sister Youning?"
"..."
Xu Youning still didn't respond.
she
It was as if she was alone in a time and space, with no reaction to the outside world that had nothing to do with her.
Mu Sijue gave Ajie a look, and Ajie understood and quietly got out of the car.
In the carriage, only Mu Sijue and Xu Youning were left.
The corners of Xu Youning's lips continued to rise.
Mu Sijue's slender fingers gently touched the corners of Xu Youning's lips and asked in a low voice: "What are you thinking about?"
His voice sent out a signal of danger.
Xu Youning discovered the "dangerous situation" and reacted immediately. When she met Mu Sijue's gaze, she realized that the car had stopped and she and Mu Sijue were the only ones left in the carriage.
"Where's Ajie?" Xu Youning asked subconsciously.
"Disappeared into thin air." Musijue said.
Xu Youning didn't realize that Mu Sijue was talking nonsense, and his eyes widened: "Is it true?"
Musijue frowned and asked helplessly: "What are you thinking about?"
Xu Youning's two rows of small fan-like eyelashes fluttered twice, and finally he reacted and his eyes began to dodge.
Mu Sijue stared at Xu Youning with burning eyes——
Xu Youning knew in his heart that he couldn't hide, so he simply met Mu Sijue's gaze and said frankly: "I'm thinking of you."
"Oh?" Musijue was neither surprised nor surprised. He raised his eyebrows very calmly, "What do you want from me?"
Xu Youning feels that one should not be too candid as a person, and it is better to maintain a certain degree of mystery.
"Well..." Xu Youning smiled, "I won't tell you!" After saying that, before Mu Sijue could react, he quickly opened the door and got out of the car.
Only then did she realize that they had arrived at their first destination today.
It was her former home that Niannian didn't find on the map.
The old house located in the ancient village, although the door is closed, there is no sign that it has been uninhabited for many years. Even the mint and lemons that grandma planted before are well taken care of.
This must be Musijue's masterpiece.
Xu Youning looked at Mu Sijue——
"I hired someone to come over regularly to clean and water the plants." Musijue said, "I think you should want to keep this place as it is."
Xu Youning smiled: "Thank you."
Mu Sijue was not polite to Xu Youning: "Go in and take a look?"
"good."
Xu Youning took Mu Sijue's hand and pushed open the door of the old house.
The plants in the yard are growing very well, and everything in the living room is as clean, simple, neat and orderly as it was when grandma was alive.
Mu Sijue looked around and said, "If grandma was still here, this place would be like this."
That's right, that's right.
Xu Youning could only answer Mu Sijue in his heart.
Her eyes began to heat up and she almost cried, but luckily she was restrained by reason.
For a long time in the past, she blamed herself and felt that she had killed her grandmother.
Everyone told her that grandma would rather she live happily, just like before. Only if she is happy can grandma in heaven be at ease.
However, it was not until this moment that Xu Youning actually decided to do what everyone suggested.
He will keep the memories related to his grandmother in his mind throughout his life, and at the same time let himself go, and will no longer struggle with what has happened and cannot be reversed.
Xu Youning touched the recliner that his grandmother loved most during her lifetime and said, "Si Jue, let's go see grandma."
Mu Sijue looked at the time: "It's noon. Let's go after dinner."
Xu Youning shook her head and wanted to say that she was not hungry, but Mu Sijue seemed to have guessed her lines and said first: "You have to eat even if you are not hungry."
Thinking that Mu Sijue had made arrangements for the next half day, Xu Youning had no choice but to compromise and said, "Okay. Where should we go to eat?"
"Follow me."
Mu Sijue took Xu Youning's hand and took her to the next door to the old house.
This direction...
Xu Youning was a little excited, but also a little unbelievable.
In the past, my grandmother opened a small restaurant and cooked some home-cooked dishes. It was quite famous in the ancient village. Most of the diners were tourists who came to the ancient village to hang out or neighbors who didn't want to cook.
Not long after Lu Boyan and Su Jianan got married, they came to G City, and Su Jianan specially brought Lu Boyan to taste her grandmother's cooking.
Su Jianan said that for someone as picky as Lu Boyan, that meal was delicious.
After his grandmother passed away, Xu Youning ate a lot of delicious food, but what he missed most was still the home-cooked food made by his grandmother.
Musijue took her in the direction of her grandmother's small restaurant.
Finally, as expected, their footsteps stopped in front of the restaurant.
The restaurant has been renovated. Compared with the simplicity when my grandma ran it, it has more Japanese elements. A large floor-to-ceiling glass window has replaced the original red brick wall. You can see the inside of the restaurant from the outside.
The lights were on inside, but a sign saying "The store is closed today" was hanging at the door.
Xu Youning said helplessly: "They are closed today." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Mu Sijue held Xu Youning's hand to prevent him from leaving, and motioned for her to look.
Xu Youning turned around and saw someone pushing open the door from the inside. It was a young girl wearing a linen apron. He smiled at her and Mu Sijue: "Are they Mr. Mu and Mrs. Mu?"
"Yes." Musijue said.
"Come in." The girl's smile became more friendly, "We have been waiting for you all morning."
Xu Youning almost understood what was going on.
Mu Sijue made an impromptu decision to come yesterday. She contacted the current owner of the store and put up a sign saying "the store is closed today" and only entertained her and Mu Sijue.
Yes, this is very Musik!
After re-decoration, all the tables and chairs that used to have a sense of age have been replaced and replaced by simple wood-colored matching tables and chairs. In this way, the store looks much larger, has ample lighting, and looks warm and bright.
Except for the address, which remains the same as before, everything else has changed...
However, it is already very good that the old house can be kept as it was before.
Xu Youning quickly thought about it, concealed his disappointment well, and sat down.
Mu Sijue pretended not to notice anything and pushed a pamphlet in front of Xu Youning: "Look at this."
It's obviously the menu.
All the dishes must have changed too, right?
The smell of grandma...not to mention.
However, this is inevitable and she can accept the fact.
Xu Youning opened the menu without any expectations, but he didn't expect to see familiar dish names coming into view...
The name has changed and the environment has changed, but the names of the dishes on the menu are exactly the same as in her memory.
The new restaurant operator has continued all the dishes that grandma is good at and that old diners like, and even the categories are the same as grandma's.
Xu Youning's eyes heated up and he looked at Mu Sijue——
She suspected that this was also arranged by Musijue.
Mu Sijue understood Xu Youning's eyes and said, "This is really none of my business."
