When Mu Sijue woke up, it was already broad daylight.
He opened his eyes, and the dream from last night came to his mind.
"Dad, why don't you and mom want me?"
The child's mournful cries could still be heard.
Musijue felt a stab in his heart and tried hard to recall the appearance of the child in the dream.
The sad thing is that he remembers everything but the appearance of the child.
He remembered the child's cries and complaints, but he could not remember what the child looked like.
Is this the child's punishment for him?
If it were him, he wouldn't want such an incompetent father to remember his appearance.
Mu Sijue suddenly felt that he was not only ridiculous, but also extremely sad.
A wry smile appeared on his lips, and after a moment, he got up as if nothing had happened.
No one would know that Musijue had a dream about a child, and no one would know how extremely sad he was in the dream.
After breakfast, Mu Sijue told A Guang and the driver to prepare, he was going to the company.
Before Mu Sijue went out, Aunt Zhou warned: "Xiao Qi, don't work overtime too late, come back early, I'll wait for you to have dinner."
Musijue looked at his watch and said, "I'll be back at six o'clock."
"Okay." A touch of joy appeared on Aunt Zhou's old face, and she waved her hand, "Go to work."
A Guang watched the whole process and for a time suspected that he was hallucinating.
After getting in the car, Aguang couldn't help but ask: "Brother Qi, aren't you going to work hard today?"
Mu Sijue ignored A Guang's question and asked directly: "Have you done what you were told yesterday?"
A Guang patted his thigh without any pressure and said, "Don't worry, I've done everything according to your instructions!"
Mu Sijue opened his laptop and asked, while checking his emails, "Tell me about my schedule for today."
Seeing the way Mu Sijue was doing business, A Guang felt a little dazed.
Overnight, Mu Sijue seemed to have transformed back into the Mu Qi Ge he was before he met Xu Youning. He was mysterious, powerful, calm and decisive, and did things without any extra personal feelings.
A Guang didn't know whether to be happy or worried, and sighed longly.
Mu Sijue glanced at A Guang, then quickly moved his eyes back to the computer screen, and said in a calm voice, "Is something wrong?"
"Brother Qi, before, I thought it was normal for you to be like this. But now I think it's not normal for you to be like this."
"Brother Qi, why is this?"
Aguang looked very distressed.
However, he is a smart boy and quickly figured out the reason.
He felt that the former Musijue was normal because he was used to the cold and ruthless Musijue. It seemed that Musijue was born like this and he would not have a second face.
Like an interlude, Xu Youning suddenly sounded in Mu Sijue's life, making him flesh and blood, with laughter and tears, and emotional ups and downs.
Because of Xu Youning, Mu Sijue can occasionally become a very down-to-earth ordinary person.
With Xu Youning, Mu Sijue's expression became filled with happiness.
Whether from the perspective of a brother or a work partner, Aguang would rather hope that Mu Sijue would be in the latter state.
However, overnight, Musijue changed back to his previous appearance.
Mu Sijue ignored Aguang's question and sent him an email with instructions: "Find out every recent business deal of the Su Group."
A year ago, Su Group was almost acquired by Lu Boyan. Later, Kang Ruicheng came out of the blue, secretly funded Su Group and became the CEO of Su Group.
On the surface, Su Group has weathered the storm.
However, Aguang knew very well what Kang Ruicheng had done using the Su Group.
A Guang said "Tsk", "Brother Qi, are you ready to deal with Kang Ruicheng? Let me tell you, the grandson named Kang hurt Aunt Zhou like that, how could you let him go so easily!"
Mu Sijue frowned, "Aguang, when did you become so talkative?"
Aguang blurted out, "Sister Youning used to be very talkative, so why didn't you find it objectionable? Brother Qi, you are treating me differently!"
Musijue's eyes suddenly turned cold, "Stop the car!"
A Guang suddenly realized what mistake he had made, "Seventh Brother..."
Mu Sijue has repeatedly emphasized not to mention Xu Youning in front of him for no reason again, unless Xu Youning becomes their target one day.
A Guang had already assumed that Mu Sijue and Xu Youning were a couple, but he couldn't realize for a moment that they had turned against each other, and he forgot to speak properly.
How should he apologize before Musijue will forgive him?
A Guang was just thinking when the car stopped in response to Mu Sijue's voice.
Musijue ordered Aguang, "Get out of the car."
Aguang knew that he had completely offended Mu Sijue. No matter how he tried to defend himself, it was useless, so he got out of the car in frustration.
What he found strange was that Xu Youning's influence on Mu Sijue had already reached this level?
The last time Xu Youning escaped, Mu Sijue was also very angry, but it didn't bother him to make fun of him occasionally. Why did he step on the thunder this time?
The driver was also frightened by Mu Sijue's iron-bloodedness. After getting out of the car, Aguang asked cautiously: "Brother Qi, are we... just leaving like this?"
The implication is, are you going to abandon A Guang like this?
Musijue's voice was so cold that it could drop ice shards, "Go to the company."
The meaning is obvious, leave A Guang alone.
The driver glanced at A Guang through the rearview mirror. Although he sympathized with him, he didn't dare to say anything. He quickly started the car and drove to the company.
Aguang scratched his hair and regretted it so much that he could only make a phone call and ask someone to pick him up.
In the afternoon, Mu Sijue returned to his old house on time to have dinner with Aunt Zhou. When Aunt Zhou asked about A Guang, he responded with a few words, obviously not mentioning A Guang too much.
Aunt Zhou noticed something unusual and called Mu Sijue's driver to ask what was going on.
The driver said that when he went to the company in the morning, Aguang mentioned Sister Youning to Brother Qi, but Brother Qi kicked him out of the car.
Aunt Zhou slowly understood what was going on and explained: "Tell the others that in the future, try not to mention You Ning in front of Si Jue."
Aunt Zhou used to call Mu Sijue "Xiaoqi".
However, except for people who were close to Mu Sijue, such as Aguang and Lu Boyan, she called Mu Sijue by his name in front of other outsiders and subordinates.
Xu Youning once again became a taboo for Mu Sijue, and this topic quickly spread among his subordinates.
"Xu Youning", these three words just disappeared from Mu Sijue's life.
Musijue's life became very regular.
He got up very early, did morning exercises for two hours, had breakfast with Aunt Zhou, and then went to the company.
After dealing with the company's affairs, then deal with other matters. If there is no social interaction, go home and have dinner with Aunt Zhou.
It seemed that Xu Youning's second betrayal had no impact on Mu Sijue at all.
Some people ridiculed that Qi Ge has become a habit.
Only Mu Sijue knew that Xu Youning's injury to him this time was fatal.
As long as he closes his eyes, the child's questions will ring in his ears——
"Dad, why don't you and mom want me?"
"Dad, it hurts so much."
He wanted to explain and keep the child.
The reality cruelly told him that he would never have a chance again.
The long night was long, and Musijue could only rely on sleeping pills to fall asleep.
Before going to bed, he always wondered whether the child would come to him in his dream tonight, or even question him.
The fact is, it never happened again. He spent a boring and lonely night.
When he woke up in the morning, Musijue felt completely empty, and a deathly silence enveloped the entire room, making him suspicious - was he the only one left in the world?
But soon, the world will be noisy again.
Mu Sijue suddenly understood that the earth was still moving, but the child would not forgive him and would not come to his dream again.
After three days, Mu Sijue was finally willing to see Aguang. This time Aguang was smarter and would rather talk nonsense to Mu Sijue than never mention Xu Youning.
In the evening, Su Jianan contacted A Guang.
A Guang was shocked. Su Jian'an was a goddess-level existence. Why would she pay attention to him?
Facts have proved that Aguang was overthinking, and the target of Su Jianan's call was Mu Sijue.
"Aguang, how is Si Jue doing after you return?"
Su Jianan asked very directly.
Aguangna Musijue told Su Jianan about his current situation, and finally concluded, "On the surface, Seventh Brother can't find anything wrong with him, but based on my understanding of Seventh Brother, this is the biggest problem! However, Mrs. Lu,
Don't tell Brother Qi, or he will be angry with me again."
"Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you." Su Jianan smiled and said, "I have no other questions. Thank you. Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Su Jianan flicked a report in her hand and sighed.
Lu Boyan looked away from the computer screen and glanced at Su Jianan, "What's wrong? It's not going well?"
"Well, things are not going well with Si Jue. I made an appointment with Aunt Zhou to keep in touch, but Si Jue is unwilling to tell Aunt Zhou anything, and A Guang doesn't dare to offend Si Jue."
"Fortunately, there is progress on my side!"
At the end of the sentence, Su Jianan's tone became energetic again, and she shook the report on her hand.
This is the recent attendance sheet of all the doctors and nurses in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of the Eighth People's Hospital that she asked someone to investigate.
Lu Boyan didn't quite understand, "Jian An, why did you start the investigation from the attendance of doctors and nurses?"
Su Jianan smiled mysteriously, and then slowly elaborated: "I speculate that if You Ning really found out that she was pregnant at the Eighth People's Hospital, Kang Ruicheng would definitely not let Si Jue find out about the test results, because during that time
Si Jue is trying to find ways to bring You Ning back, and Kang Ruicheng knows that Si Jue also wants You Ning."
"So?" Lu Boyan gestured to Su Jianan to continue.
"According to Kang Ruicheng's style, he will definitely hide the doctors and nurses who helped You Ning to do the examination." Su Jian'an analyzed clearly, "So, during the time You Ning stayed with us, if a doctor happened to ask for leave?
At work, there must be something wrong with this doctor!"
Lu Boyan's interest was aroused, he left his office seat, walked to Su Jianan and sat down, "You have got the attendance sheets of doctors and nurses, have you found anything?"
"Of course!" Su Jianan circled the three words "Liu Mingfang" on the attendance sheet with a red pen, and said firmly, "This doctor is very suspicious!"
Lu Boyan looked at Dr. Liu Mingfang's attendance time and quickly understood why Su Jianan suspected this doctor.
It's not that Su Jian'an is too smart, but that this doctor's attendance time is too... a coincidence.
