Returning to the hall again, Rong Heng still looked absent-minded. He neither participated in Huo Jinxi's conversation nor in the exchange centered on Mu Qian. He just sat quietly in the corner, thinking about something.
Every time Mu Qian saw him accidentally, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
But Rong Heng had no intention of laughing at all.
In fact, the thing Mu Qian mentioned has been stuck in his mind these days.
He has been constantly reflecting on whether he went too far that day and hurt Lu Yuan's emotions.
Admittedly, judging from his usual attitude towards Lu Yuan, he just turned around and left without saying a word that day, which was not too much at all. But for some reason, since he knew that Lu Yuan was probably the girl seven years ago, even though he
He kept saying that he wanted to let it go, but when he saw Lu Yuan again, he still had some different emotions.
That's why he thought about it for so many days, and that's why he considered whether he had gone too far.
Lu Yuan always looked calm and calm, but this time, Mu Qian said that she was actually unhappy... So how much did he go too far that day?
Thinking of this, Rong Heng couldn't help but take out his cell phone, held it in his hand, and slid it around unconsciously, making a rough draft in his mind.
If you want to apologize, where should you start after so many days?
They obviously reached a consensus and let the past things go, so they should get along like strangers. Wouldn't it seem very abrupt if he suddenly sent her a message to apologize like this?
Rong Heng thought over and over again, struggled for a long time, and finally decided to bite the bullet and call Lu Yuan to tell the truth. When he got up, he happened to see Lu Yuan push the door open and walk in.
She smiled calmly and looked at Mu Qian who was sitting among the crowd, "I'm sorry, I'm late."
Mu Qian, who kept saying that she had made a temporary excuse not to come, smiled broadly, "It's not too late, it's not dinner yet! Didn't you say you won't arrive until after seven o'clock? That's way ahead of schedule!"
When Rong Heng heard this, he couldn't help gritting his teeth and giving Mu Qian a hard look.
Mu Qian tilted her head to meet his gaze, just smiled at him, and then stepped forward to hold Lu Yuan's hand.
Rong Heng silently put his phone back into his pocket.
Everyone here is Huo Jinxi's best friend, and naturally they are all familiar with Lu Yuan. When they met, everyone was a little stunned. They looked at Lu Yuan, then at Huo Jinxi, and then at Mu Qian.
They all had a secretive expression.
"Aunt Yuanyuan, come here." As soon as Huo Qiran saw Lu Yuan, he immediately ran over and took her hand, excitedly taking Lu Yuan upstairs to see his latest learning and entertainment results.
"Qi Ran!" Mu Qian suddenly called him again, "Didn't your uncle Rong Heng give you a model airplane last time? Take him up there to see how you finished it?"
"Ah, right!" After hearing this, Huo Qiran let go of Lu Yuan's hand and asked her to wait for him at the stairs. Then he turned around, ran back and pulled Rong Heng, and walked upstairs together.
The back figures of the three people going upstairs together were so conspicuous that everyone in the hall couldn't help but focus on the three people until their figures disappeared on the stairs.
"Why do I feel something is wrong?" He Jingchen touched his chin and looked at Mu Qian, "What bad idea are you planning?"
"You are overthinking." Mu Qian leaned into Huo Jinxi's arms, glanced at him, and said, "I don't have any plans, I just want to make some people I care about happy, do you understand?"
When she said this, He Jingchen was even more confused, "Who is the person you care about?"
Mu Qian turned around and looked at Huo Jinxi, then chuckled and said, "I won't tell you."
"Huo Er." He Jingchen immediately turned to Huo Jinxi, "Your wife is so arrogant, you just let her go?"
Hearing this, Huo Jinxi looked up at him casually and said slowly: "If I can't let her go, how can I let you?"
Suddenly there was a burst of cheers and jeering sounds in the living room.
Mu Qian leaned more obediently into Huo Jinxi's arms and looked at He Jingchen with pride.
He Jingchen immediately raised his hands to admit defeat, pressed his heart and rolled to the side.
…
Upstairs, in Huo Qiran's room, Huo Qiran showed his latest album to Lu Yuan while taking down the models on the display shelf one by one for Rong Heng to take a look at.
After Rong Heng looked at a few models, he couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan sat next to him, quietly looking through Huo Qiran's picture album, and occasionally asking Huo Qiran a few words. The aunt and nephew whispered and laughed, completely treating him as transparent.
Rong Heng was beside him, and just when he felt that he couldn't bear it anymore, Mu Qian's voice suddenly came from outside calling Huo Qiran. Huo Qiran agreed, turned around and ran out in a hurry.
Suddenly, Rong Heng and Lu Yuan were the only two people left in the bedroom.
This sudden solitude caught Rong Heng off guard. Lu Yuan remained calm. After putting away Huo Qiran's picture album, he stood up and helped him tidy up his desk.
Rong Heng sat on the bed behind her, watching her every move quietly.
When Lu Yuan packed up the desk and turned around, he was still sitting there in a daze.
Until Lu Yuan spoke first: "Have you finished reading the model? If so, I will help him put it away."
Rong Heng finally came to his senses and stood up in a daze, revealing the pile of models behind him.
Lu Yuan then stepped forward and started to pack up the model. After all, Rong Heng stood aside, lowering his head and silently helping her pack it away.
The last cruise ship model was placed on the highest shelf. Lu Yuan stood on tiptoe and tried it, but couldn't reach it.
Rong Heng was behind her, his eyes lingering for a moment on the waistline that was inadvertently exposed when she stepped on her feet. When he suddenly came back to his senses, he couldn't help but feel a little hot in his face. He quickly stepped forward to take the things in her hands and put them down easily for her.
On the highest shelf.
"Thank you." Lu Yuan said.
Rong Heng's voice was hoarse for a moment, and he paused for a moment before finally speaking: "I'm sorry."
After Lu Yuan heard this, he glanced at him inexplicably, "What?"
"That day, in the hospital." Now that he had started, Rong Heng stopped being coy and said, "I didn't mean to look down on you, nor was I targeting you."
After Lu Yuan listened, he seemed stunned for a moment, and then said: "Did you look at me that day?"
Rong Heng: "..."
"I have no impression of this." Lu Yuan said, "So, it doesn't matter."
This originally meant that the matter was resolved, but for some reason, Rong Heng only felt that his heart was even more blocked.
…
It wasn't until the end of dinner that Mu Qian found a chance to talk to Lu Yuan alone in the kitchen.
"How was it?" Mu Qian asked, "Did you two say anything upstairs?"
Lu Yuan glanced at her and said helplessly: "So it was you? I just said it was inexplicable why he suddenly said sorry to me."
"He made a mistake, shouldn't he say sorry?" Mu Qian said.
Lu Yuan shrugged and said, "You clearly know his attitude towards the Lu family and me, so why bother him?"
"I don't care what he does." Mu Qian said, "As long as you don't be unhappy."
Hearing this, Lu Yuan said slowly: "I'm not unhappy."
After hearing this, Mu Qian chuckled and said, "That's fine."
The two of them came out of the kitchen together. He Jingchen and others had already started playing cards, and it was bustling outside.
Lu Yuan still has pictures to draw, so he needs to leave first.
On this side, she was about to leave. On the other side, Rong Heng just walked out of the bathroom and said to the people in the card game: "You guys can play, I'll leave first."
Several people were already very familiar with each other, so everyone in the card game just responded and let him go first.
Rong Heng turned around and saw Lu Yuan who was also about to leave. He couldn't help being slightly startled, "Are you leaving too?"
"Yeah." Lu Yuan nodded.
"That……"
Before Rong Heng could finish the rest of his words, Mu Qian interrupted him directly, "You don't need to send her. I have arranged a driver and will send Yuanyuan back."
"Oh." Rong Heng responded, paused and then said, "Then I'll leave first."
He put on his coat, went out and got into the car, started the car, and happened to see Mu Qian walking Lu Yuan into the car in the rearview mirror.
That car started before his car, so Lu Yuan quickly drove away from Huo's house after getting in the car.
Rong Heng watched the car disappear from sight, and was about to leave when someone suddenly knocked on his car window.
Rong Heng turned his head and saw the smiling Mu Qian.
For some reason, Rong Heng just felt that Mu Qian's face was not so scary when she looked down, but when she smiled, it was really hard to figure out what she was thinking.
Rong Heng lowered the car window and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Nothing, I'm sending you out and saying goodbye." Mu Qian looked at him in surprise, "What do you think I want to do?"
Rong Heng had a cold face, silently raised the window again, stepped on the accelerator, and left without looking back.
Mu Qian stood at the door of the main building, smiling and waving to him, "Bye!"
…
Back inside, Huo Jinxi was playing cards with the remaining people. Mu Qian sat beside him and watched for a while, then turned and went upstairs.
She had gotten up early on this day, and after experiencing such excitement in the evening, she helped Huo Qiran go to bed, and then returned to the bedroom.
She had no intention of sleeping at first, she just wanted to take a rest and then go downstairs to see He Jingchen and others off.
Unexpectedly, I lay on the bed, flipped through a few pages of the book, and fell asleep unconsciously.
When she regained consciousness, someone was kissing her.
Mu Qian opened her eyes in a daze, and met Huo Jinxi's deep and dark eyes.
"Well..." Mu Qian was a little confused for a moment. She avoided his lips slightly before speaking, "Have they all left?"
"gone."
Huo Jinxi replied in a low voice and sealed her lips again.
Mu Qian gradually woke up and suddenly noticed something.
"Hey, don't act recklessly..." Mu Qian said, "The injury is not completely healed yet..."
After hearing this, Huo Jinxi just whispered: "Okay."
Mu Qian suddenly glared at him.
Although he seems to be fine now, in fact, due to the excessive trauma, he had not fully recovered when he went for a checkup last time. Therefore, Mu Qian has not let him mess around for so long.
But today, this man seemed to be extraordinarily strong.
Mu Qian vaguely felt that she might not be able to escape.
