Finally, he closed the document: "Okay, Lawyer Mo, I understand everything you need to know. You can go down first..."
"yes".
"Wait..." He stopped him hesitantly: "What are our chances of winning this lawsuit?"
"Back to Mr. Mu, judging from the evidence we have so far, the probability is over 90%, so Mr. Mu doesn't need to worry too much."
Qin Mujue rubbed his temples tiredly: "Okay, I understand, you can go down first."
***** *****
When the office was empty, Qin Muzhen suddenly felt a little irritable. A sense of depression surged from his chest. He clenched his fists and suddenly slammed the table hard.
Is that woman stupid or crazy?
Since she knew that she was sick and unemployed, why didn't she surrender to him? Is it so painful to marry him? It was so painful that she was willing to do everything she could to fight him in court, fighting to the death.
Sensing something strange in the office, Nie Sheng opened the door: "Master Mu, what's wrong with you?"
Qin Muzhen stood up, his face still tense: "It's okay." He took the suit on the sofa, put it on, and walked out.
Nie Sheng followed up: "Is Mr. Mu going home directly?"
In front of the elevator, he stopped: "No, take me to Zijing Apartment."
Nie Sheng was stunned for a moment. That was where Miss Xia Tong lived: "Now?"
"Yeah." Qin Mucai nodded, stepped into the elevator, thought for a moment, and then said, "Before going there, go to the Lord's Kindergarten first and pick up Guaiguai."
***** *****
Without Guaiguai at home, Xia Tong was too lazy to make dinner. He had lost his appetite all day long, and at night he thought he should eat something. He wanted to cook some light porridge and drink it. Unexpectedly, the cupboard where rice was usually stored was now in the cupboard.
There was not a grain of rice left. Xia Tong held her stomach and couldn't help but lament.
It was so late, and she was too lazy to buy rice. As soon as her eyes turned, she fell on a box of instant noodles that had been lying around for a long time. After a moment of hesitation, she took it out and decided to make do with it tonight.
Tear open the packaging bag, put the ingredients, pour hot water...
After waiting for a few minutes, it was almost ready. Xia Tong picked up a fork and was about to eat when the doorbell suddenly rang.
Looking at the hot instant noodles, she clenched her fists nervously, and then reluctantly stood up. When she walked to the door, she kept a careful eye and looked out through the peephole.
Just one glance made her whole body tense into a line from head to toe.
The person who came turned out to be——Qin Mujue?
He was standing outside the door wearing a crisp suit. He tapped the door with his slender fingers a few times and frowned. He was obviously a little impatient with her slow speed of opening the door. Suddenly, he seemed to notice something.
, raised his head, his eyelids seemed to become sharp again at that moment.
Xia Tong was startled, and looked away with a guilty conscience. But she couldn't help but laugh in her heart. She knew clearly that there was no way he could see her, why should she panic? Besides, this is her home, he should be the one who should be embarrassed, right?!
Thinking of this, Xia Tong adjusted his expression and opened the door with his usual indifferent expression: "Why are you here?"
He didn't answer her words and walked straight in, "Come to see you..."
Just when his eyes touched the uneaten bowl of instant noodles on the table in the living room, he suddenly froze. Xia Tong lowered his head and closed the door. When he turned around, he saw him looking back at her, with a hint of sullenness in his sharp eyes.
She couldn't help but feel terrified.
He looked away and threw the instant noodles into the trash can with an expressionless expression.
Xia Tong watched his series of actions with helpless eyes, and it took him a long time to react.
"Hey!" She was very angry: "Qin Mujie, can you be a little bit polite as a guest? This is my home, how can you be so overbearing?"
The only supper was gone, and she felt very distressed, so distressed that she didn't want to pay attention to him.
"That thing has no nutrition..." He said lazily, sitting on the sofa very naturally, closing his eyes and resting.
I don’t have anything to eat, so what can I do to fill my stomach? Is it nutritious?
Xia Tong walked up to him angrily and kicked him angrily. He was so angry that he wanted to scream, but after a while he held back four extremely resentful words: "But I'm hungry..."
He finally opened his eyes, his dark blue eyes emotionless and looked at her: "You haven't cooked yet?"
Xia Tong said angrily: "You have already taken Guaiguai away, who am I going to cook for?"
The dissatisfaction that the man had been suppressing since the office was finally on the verge of breaking out: "Xia Tong..." He frowned: "Can you stop being so fussy, be a bit more womanly sometimes, and learn to take care of yourself? If you're not there, you
Are you prepared to starve yourself to death?"
Hearing this, Xia Tong smiled instead of getting angry and said: "Yes, I'm not a woman enough and I don't know how to take care of myself, but what does that have to do with you? Qin Mujue, don't you think you are very conflicted now? It's late at night
Don’t you think you’re boring if you don’t go to your old and new loves to linger over, but instead come to my house, which is not a woman at all, and interfere in my business of eating instant noodles?”
The man stood up suddenly, a little angry.
Xia Tong thought for a moment and smiled again: "Oh... I see, you must know that you can't win the lawsuit tomorrow. So you came to me at night and wanted to negotiate with me so that you could let me go.
Qin Mujie laughed, his eyes cold, "Xia Tong, are you a dog? Do you bite anyone you see?"
"I'm sorry, I'm a dog, and I only bite you, a stinky guy like you who looks like a naughty guy but is full of bad stuff!"
Hearing this, the man suddenly wanted to laugh. He stretched out his arm in front of her: "Bite it."
"What?!" Xia Tong didn't understand.
He said expressionlessly: "Aren't you the one who specializes in biting buns like mine?"
Xia Tong blushed and pushed him away, slightly embarrassed: "Go to hell."
The atmosphere was tense just now, but in an instant, it became much warmer. Qin Mu sat on the sofa again and asked casually: "I heard that you have been sick recently?"
Xia Tong's heart was suddenly startled, how could he know...?
"Do you want to take care of it?!" She sat on the sofa farthest from him, turned on the TV, and turned the volume to the maximum to cover up her panic at the moment.
He walked to the TV, unplugged the power, crossed his arms, and looked seriously: "What disease is it?"
"Nothing wrong..." Xia Tong turned away and spoke vaguely.
"Is there any disease that warrants me going to the hospital twice a week? Or even being sent home by my supervisor to recuperate? Xia Tong——." His tone became calmer: "Don't test my patience."
He actually... knew...
Xia Tong slowly closed her hand holding the sofa cushion, feeling even more uneasy. She didn't know how much he had already investigated? Could it be that she was pregnant...
