By the time the two of them walked out of the restaurant, the unpleasant and tense atmosphere had long since dissipated.
The bodyguards could all see the injury on Huo Jinxi's lip and Mu Qian's slightly red and swollen lips, but they all quickly looked away without knowing it.
In short, if the boss is in a good mood, their working atmosphere will be relatively relaxed.
Mu Qian was wrapped in Huo Jinxi's coat and was led by Huo Jinxi into the car, leaning against each other and talking in a low voice.
Not long after, the car started and drove towards the Lu family villas.
The Lu family's guard was already familiar with Huo Jinxi and Mu Qian's car. After seeing the people sitting in the car, he quickly let them go.
The car drove directly to the entrance of Lu Yuchuan's villa, and the aunt at home greeted her, "Miss Qian, Mr. Huo."
Mu Qian got out of the car, but Huo Jinxi still sat in the car and didn't move.
"Is anyone at home?" Mu Qian asked.
"Sir is back," the aunt replied. "It seems that he was drunk and very tired. He has already fallen asleep."
Fallen asleep?
Mu Qian turned around and looked at the building opposite and said, "Since he's asleep, I won't disturb him for now."
After saying that, Mu Qian turned around and walked towards the opposite side.
"Miss Qian!" Auntie quickly called her, "Don't go over there, Third Master will be angry! After the last fire, several people were added to guard over there!"
After hearing this, Mu Qian couldn't help but laugh out loud and said: "Don't worry, those people don't have the intention to stop me now!"
After all, now that Lu Yujiang is behind bars, and those under his command are all in danger, how can they still have the energy to take care of a seemingly insignificant Lu Ran?
As expected, after arriving at the door of Lu Yujiang's house, Mu Qian walked into the villa without much effort.
Lu Ran was sitting in the small living room on the second floor reading a book. He suddenly looked up and saw her. He couldn't help being startled. He put down the book and stood up, then stepped forward and took Mu Qian's hand, "Sister Mu Qian, has something happened?
?”
Mu Qian didn't expect her to be so sharp, so she just smiled and asked, "Why do you ask that?"
"I don't know." Lu Ran said, "But my uncle didn't come back for two days, and my aunt and the others whispered to me, and they didn't guard me like before..."
Mu Qian listened, shook her hand, and then said: "Do you want to see uncle, or do you not want to see uncle?"
"I..." Lu Ran seemed to hesitate for a moment, then thought about it carefully, and then said definitely, "I think."
Mu Qian wasn't too surprised after hearing this.
After all, Lu Ran grew up in such a closed environment. Although Lu Yujiang deprived her of her freedom, he was the only person she could rely on and trust for so many years. Even though she had resentment towards Lu Yujiang, she still faced him head-on.
Emotion takes over.
"Then if you could leave here and go wherever you want, but never see your uncle again, would you be willing?" Mu Qian asked again.
Hearing this question, Lu Ran was slightly stunned.
Obviously, she had never thought about this issue.
She can go wherever she wants, this is the freedom she has fantasized about for many years;
But she would never see her uncle again? She had never thought about this problem.
Seeing Lu Ran's dazed look, Mu Qian reached out and touched her head, and said with a smile: "It's okay, think about it slowly. Have Auntie and the others told you anything?"
Lu Ran shook his head.
"Uncle may not come back in the near future." Mu Qian said, "If you want to go somewhere, call me. You can go for a walk while he is away."
"Then uncle won't be angry?" Lu Ran said quickly.
Mu Qian couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Maybe. But is it because he will be angry that you will never go out again?"
Lu Ran quickly shook his head, "I want to go out! I also want to see Huo Jinbei! I also want to see my cousin! There are many other people!"
After hearing this, Mu Qian nodded slightly and smiled, "That's right."
After chatting with Lu Ran for a while, Mu Qian didn't get up and leave until it was time for Lu Ran to go to bed.
After leaving the building and returning to Lu Yuchuan Building, Huo Jinxi was still sitting in the car talking on the phone.
Mu Qian walked to the car and listened to a few words, then said to him: "I'll go upstairs and have a look."
Huo Jinxi glanced at her and nodded.
Mu Qian turned around and entered the house in front of her. After going up to the second floor, she quickly arrived at the door of Lu Yuchuan's room.
The room was unlocked, so Mu Qian gently turned the doorknob and opened the door.
I have been in and out of this house freely several times. This is the first time Mu Qian has entered this house.
Completely different from the warm and peaceful feeling that Lu Yuchuan usually gives people, this small bedroom is full of cold and hard atmosphere, with simple to the extreme decoration, no unnecessary decoration, dark-colored furniture and sheets and bedding.
There is no trace of the temperature that a home should have.
Lu Yuchuan, on the other hand, was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and seemed to have fallen asleep.
Mu Qian adjusted the lights in the room to a suitable brightness and then walked into the room.
She first walked to the bed and looked at the sleeping Lu Yuchuan, then turned around and looked at the room again.
The house is not big, and the decoration and furnishings are simple. In fact, it can be seen at a glance, and Mu Qian still looked at it for a long time.
She looked around here and there, looking at the TV cabinet and bedside table in Lu Yuchuan's bedroom, and then walked into the cloakroom.
What Mu Qian never saw was that when she walked into the cloakroom, Lu Yuchuan, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes and glanced in her direction.
His eyes were dark and dark.
Mu Qian walked into the cloakroom and checked it again. However, except for Lu Yuchuan's daily belongings, there was nothing of value or significance in the room.
Come to think of it, what important things would someone like Lu Yuchuan put in such an ordinary room?
His business that cannot be seen in the light? Or is it evidence of a crime?
Although Mu Qian felt that what she did was a bit redundant, she still made a full circle before stopping at the end of the bed.
On the bed, Lu Yuchuan was lying on the dark quilt, with a slightly pale face under his slightly frowning brows.
The reason why Lu Yuchuan gives people a gentle and peaceful feeling is because his appearance is really gentle and fair, like a gentle scholar, with no trace of ruthlessness at all.
At this moment, his originally fair face seemed paler than usual, either because it was set off by the dark sheets or for some other reason.
This kind of paleness reveals a hint of exhaustion and desolation. Will characters like Lu Yuchuan also have such moments?
Mu Qian stood quietly at the end of the bed and stared at him for a long time before finally turning around.
When she turned around, she didn't leave, but walked into the bathroom.
After a while, Mu Qian came out of the bathroom again, with a warm wet towel in her hand.
She walked to the bed and gently covered Lu Yuchuan's forehead with a wet towel.
After completing this action, Mu Qian did not leave. Instead, he sat down beside the bed, leaning his face against the bed and looking at Lu Yuchuan motionlessly.
Until... Lu Yuchuan slowly opened his eyes and met her gaze.
Mu Qian came to her senses, turned away suddenly, got up from the ground and prepared to leave.
This seemed to be a subconscious action, and when she realized what she was doing, she paused slightly, then sat back to her previous position, crossed her legs, straightened her waist and looked at Lu Yuchuan again.
Seeing her series of actions, Lu Yuchuan couldn't help but smile slightly, "What's wrong?"
"I thought you might not want to see me," Mu Qian said, "but on second thought, I didn't do anything wrong. There's no need to rush away."
After hearing this, Lu Yuchuan first smiled softly, then sighed slightly and said, "You..."
Mu Qian immediately looked at him, "What?"
Lu Yuchuan picked up the towel on his forehead and said, "The towel on my forehead should be warmer to make it more comfortable."
Mu Qian: "..."
Then, she snorted, took the towel, stood up and walked into the bathroom again.
"I won't do such a thing." Mu Qian said, "Huo Jinxi enjoyed this treatment many years ago, so you'd better be content!"
Her voice came out along with the sound of rushing water, and Lu Yuchuan couldn't help but smile again.
After Mu Qian put a warm towel on his forehead again, he looked at her again and said, "If you don't do this, dad will be happy too."
After hearing this, Mu Qian tilted her head slightly and looked at him, "Are you really not angry?"
Lu Yuchuan naturally knew that she was referring to Lu Yujiang's matter.
"Yeah." Lu Yuchuan replied, "I'm not angry."
After hearing this, Mu Qian looked at him for a moment, and then she seemed to have untied the knot in her heart. She turned to look at the room again and said, "Your bedroom is not very good."
"What's wrong?"
"It's too deserted." Mu Qian said, "There's no warmth at all."
Lu Yuchuan smiled again and said lightly: "I'm used to it, it doesn't matter."
Mu Qian stared at him for a moment and said, "In all these years, haven't you had a... suitable woman by your side?"
"Huh?" Lu Yuchuan seemed not to expect that she would ask this question, "What do you want to say?"
"Mom has been gone for so many years, and you and Cheng Huiru have only been married in the name of husband and wife. Don't you even have a confidante by your side?" Mu Qian said, "There should be, right?"
Lu Yuchuan listened and said slowly: "Then...should I have it or shouldn't I have it?"
Mu Qian curled her lips and said: "You know your own affairs. A life is so long, there should be many possibilities. If a woman takes care of you, you won't be as miserable as you are today."
Lu Yuchuan was silent for a moment and didn't say anything.
"Okay." Mu Qian stood up and patted the non-existent dust on his body, "I came here to see Lu Ran, and I just stopped by to see you... Now that I've finished reading, I'm leaving. You can have a good rest.
Next time...I guess you'll be busy!"
Lu Yujiang was his right-hand man. Now that something like this happened suddenly, it was a big deal for the Lu family and the Lu family.
Lu Yuchuan will definitely not have an easy time in the next period of time.
"Qian Qian."
Mu Qian had already reached the door of the room, and when she heard the sound, she turned back to look at him.
"Thank you for the towel."
Mu Qian paused, but without saying anything, she opened the door and walked out.
