He picked it up, as if he couldn't believe his eyes, and stared at it for a long time. Until Nie Sheng beside him seemed to feel something was wrong, and couldn't help but ask: "Master Mu, what's wrong?"
"……."
It took a long time before Qin Mujie came back to his senses and said, "Oh, it's nothing." He put the test sheet in and when he looked up again, the surprise on his face had disappeared.
He lowered his head and looked at his watch: "It's already six o'clock, let's get off work."

During dinner, Qin Mujie was a little absent-minded. Xia Tong called him several times, but it took him a long time to react. He looked thoughtful, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After dinner, Qin Mujie went back to the study on the second floor to work. Xia Tong received a call from Xia Wanlin: "Hey, sister, what's wrong?"
"Tongtong..." Xia Wanlin's voice was a little excited: "I'm calling to tell you that I found out the detective who took the photo of Qin Mucheng yesterday, and I'm going to ask him out to meet and talk about that.
The source of the photo….”
"Really?" Xia Tong sat up and asked, "When will you meet?"
"Just for these few days, do you want to come too?"
"Of course!" Xia Tong said. After a pause, she suddenly wanted to tell Xia Wanlin the news that Lin Manru might not be dead, so as to save her from having to worry about something.
Xia Tong opened her mouth and was about to speak, but she saw Qin Muzhao walking down the stairs. She thought about it and felt that she couldn't explain it clearly on the phone right now, so she might as well wait until the next meeting to discuss it.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Muzhen walked up to her, hugged her and sat on the sofa: "Whose phone number is it?"
Xia Tong nestled into his arms, not wanting to hide anything from him, so she told the truth: "Sister..." After a pause, he asked again: "Have you finished your work?"
He nodded and touched her round belly through her pajamas. Because he usually liked to do such intimate gestures, Xia Tong did not push him away.
Who would have thought that today he seemed a little...er, dishonest...
Before she agreed, he stretched his rough palms from the hem of her pajamas and pressed them against her soft belly. He still touched and touched there...
Xia Tong was immediately embarrassed and her face started to burn. She grabbed his hand and said, "It's so itchy, don't touch it there..."
He laughed: "Why are you still so sensitive?"
"..." Xia Tong cursed: Do you think everyone has experienced hundreds of battles like you?
He didn't continue to tease her. He took his hand out of his clothes, hugged her immediately and said, "I have something to tell you..."
"Huh?" Xia Tong fiddled with the remote control in his hand.
"I asked Nie Sheng to investigate Su Ruo's matter before, and the results have already come..."
Xia Tong's fingertips trembled, but his face was still calm: "What is it?"
"Same as the story you told, Su Ruo is indeed Lin Manru."
"Well..." Xia Tong didn't know what expression to give him at this moment. She opened her mouth and finally asked: "What are you going to do?"
"I want to go to the hospital tomorrow..." He glanced at her and saw that she seemed a little depressed, and explained: "Don't worry, I just want to find out something. After all, I had a relationship with her back then.
There are some things I have to ask clearly about my feelings. I can only try my best to make up for the things that should be compensated..."
"Is there anything else you want to compensate for?" Xia Tong asked in amusement: "You won't end up having to commit yourself to compensate for it, right?"
"..." Qin Mujue: "Isn't my body under your control now? How can I promise it to her?"
Okay, Xia Tong is a little sweet.
"If you are worried, come with me tomorrow. Look at me and you won't have to worry..."
"What did you say?" Xia Tong raised his eyebrows: "You are not allowed to go back on your word..."

Early the next morning, the two of them came to the hospital. Xia Tong even brought the bone soup that Ran Ran had cooked last night. Although she had a really bad impression of Su Ruo, for the sake of Qin Mu, she treated her with superficial courtesy.
We still need to do our best. I also hope that after today, he and Su Ruo can really talk clearly and have a clean break.
After taking the elevator to the fourth floor, the two walked hand in hand to the front of the ward.
He stopped and said, "I'll go in first..." Xia Tong nodded.
In the ward, Su Ruo, who was wearing a hospital gown, had just woken up. After resting in the hospital for more than half a month, her initial injuries had improved a lot, and now she could barely take care of herself...
At this time, she was supporting the bed board with one elbow and trying to sit up. The door to the ward was suddenly pushed open, and a tall figure walked in. She raised her head, and when she saw the person, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.
, just about to call him, his eyes cooled down slightly when he touched the person who was following him behind him.
"Mr. Qin, Miss Xia..." She raised her chin as a greeting.
Xia Tong put the bone soup on the table next to her: "Your body is injured, you should eat something nutritious to replenish it. I specially asked someone to make this soup last night. Drink some later, right?"
It’s good for your body…”
Su Ruo nodded, "Yes."
For a moment, the three of them were a little embarrassed, and no one spoke. Xia Tong understood that she was stuck here, and Qin Muzhen probably didn't know how to explain it clearly, so she turned to him and said: "I just saw someone outside the hospital door.
I'm selling fruit in my car, it looks quite fresh, I want to buy some..."
He naturally understood the meaning of her words and said, "Okay, go ahead, be careful."
Xia Tong looked at the two people again before walking out of the door.
The moment the door closed, Su Ruo looked straight at him, and for some reason, her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, blurry.
Qin Muzhen stood for a while, then folded his legs and sat on a chair next to the bed, and said in a deep voice: "Manru..."
As soon as the name was spoken, Su Ruo was stunned: "You..."
"I've found out everything." Qin Muzhen looked at her: "You are actually Manru, right?"
She lowered her head, bit her lip, and said nothing.
Qin Muzhen said: "Manru, I am really sorry for what happened back then. You were by my side, but I failed to protect you and made you suffer so much..."
"I don't need your apology." Su Ruo shook her head, bit her lip as if she had made up her mind, and her tone was different from the soft and timid tone before: "Mu Jue, I have never blamed you, as long as you are willing to come back and be with me now.
Together, I can treat everything in the past as if it never happened and I don’t care..."
