After several days of not sleeping, Mr. Mu was worried about his physical condition, so he simply put a sofa bed in his bedroom.
Mu Shaoling turned on the light, sat up, put away the bed, and walked out of the study.
He pushed open Taotao's bedroom door and turned on a small orange lamp, illuminating the bedside.
Since Ruan Bai was kidnapped, the child who always loved to laugh and play has changed. He has become a crybaby. Apart from crying, he is silent. He used to clamor for food and watch animations, but now the animations on TV cannot attract him.
interest.
He would even wake up from his dream every night, crying and asking for Ruan Bai.
Later, Si Yao suggested lighting a small lamp next to his bed, which could soothe the child's mood. He did so, and the number of times Taotao woke up at night gradually decreased.
Mu Shaoling walked in gently, looked at the quilt Taotao kicked off, pursed his thin lips and went up to cover him with the quilt.
These are things Nguyen Bai would do in the past.
When he sleeps until midnight, Ruan Bai will always get up once or twice to see if the child has kicked the quilt.
Taotao turned around and whispered softly, "Mom..."
Mu Shaoling stiffened and looked down at the child.
Taotao didn't wake up and her eyes were still closed. It seemed that she was dreaming about Ruan Bai.
"Mom, Taotao misses you so much." Taotao muttered again, her voice still trembling with tears.
Mu Shaoling sighed and sat by the bed. He had seen Ruan Bai coaxing the child to sleep in the past. He raised his hand and gently placed it on Taotao's back, stroking it.
Sure enough, he stopped talking in his sleep, and his frown became more relaxed.
Mu Shaoling looked at Taotao's face. The crying during this period had made his chubby little face lose a lot of weight.
If Ruan Bai sees him like this when he comes back, he will definitely blame himself for not taking good care of the child.
Mu Shaoling comforted Taotao like this for about ten minutes before taking back his hand. Looking at Taotao's sleeping face, he sighed, walked out, and pushed Zhanbai and Ruanruan's room away, making sure that they did not kick the quilt.
He just returned to the study.
Sitting on the executive chair, he looked at the computer screen. He had been awake for several days. In addition to looking for Ruan Bai, he was also dealing with the official affairs of T Group.
Now, he has taken care of all the work of T Group, and there is no new news about the search for Ruan Bai. He is sitting here with nothing to do, but he can't sleep either.
After thinking for a while, Mu Shaoling picked up the phone and called Song Beixi.
At three o'clock in the morning, Song Beixi had already rested. The phone rang. He opened his eyes and waited for a while before picking it up.
Seeing that the call was from Mu Shaoling, he answered the call, thinking that the other party calling so late had good news, so he asked: "Did you find your wife?"
"No." Mu Shaoling's eyes were deep. When he mentioned Ruan Bai, he couldn't help clenching his fists. He would never let go of the person who kidnapped Ruan Bai.
"There's something wrong with you. You didn't call me in the middle of the night. Do you know what disturbing someone's sleep means?" Song Beixi opened his mouth and cursed. He glanced at the bed next to him. Li Ni was not there.
"I'm going to the Horror Island." Mu Shaoling told him his decision.
"Terror Island? It's all under the care of the Russian government now. Maybe it has become a desert island." Song Beixi got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom. As expected, he saw Li Ni sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding her feet with both hands.
Looking lonely.
He suddenly walked out, startling her, and when their eyes met, Song Beixi saw the panic and sadness in Li Ni's eyes.
"I think this was done by people from Terror Island," Mu Shaoling said.
"I haven't heard that there are any powerful characters in exile on Terror Island..." Song Beixi walked to Li Ni and sat down. He felt that his friend thought too much.
The main core figures of the Terror Island were imprisoned by the Russian government in the country's most secure prisons, and those who escaped were also arrested one by one. Now the Terror Island organization no longer exists.
Mu Shaoling didn't seem to hear what he said, but said, "Get ready."
"..." Song Beixi was speechless. It seemed that he was definitely going there, so he had no choice but to accompany him. "Okay, I'll make arrangements. We'll set off the day after tomorrow. Don't act on your own. I don't know if there are any Russian troops on the island.
Guard, I have to negotiate, otherwise I will be in trouble if I am regarded as an illegal intruder."
"Well, thank you." Mu Shaoling said thank you for the first time and ended the call.
Song Beixi was stunned. Did he hear it correctly? Mu Shaoling, who had always been cold and arrogant and didn't know what gratitude was, actually said thank you to him?
He thought the other party would only say thank you to Ruan Bai.
"Is there any news about Xiao Bai?" Li Ni listened to his call and kept wanting to ask if Ruan Bai had been found. However, knowing the man's temper, she waited until he ended the call before daring to ask.
"No." Song Beixi threw the phone aside and looked at her, "Mu Shaoling is going to Terror Island. I will set off with him the day after tomorrow."
"Yeah." Li Ni was a little disappointed that she hadn't found Ruan Bai yet...
Song Beixi looked at the disappointment in her eyes. Apart from a promise, she never said anything else. She suddenly felt dissatisfied. He said he was going to a horror island. Wouldn't she be worried if he said he was going to a horror island?
He felt awkward for a moment and said again: "Why are you sitting here?"
"Can't sleep." Li Ni felt his anger and felt even more confused.
Starting last month, Song Beixi announced that he would stay here overnight.
She wasn't used to it at first, because she was already used to that pattern. It was a bit of a space to be able to be alone when he was away, but now he comes over every day after get off work, and she feels like there is suddenly an extra person in her life. , affecting her life, her mood and everything else about her.
This feeling was not good, and Li Ni was afraid that she would get used to it, so the more Song Beixi appeared, the more depressed she became. After learning that Ruan Bai had been kidnapped, her mood became even more depressed.
Obviously, she is used to being alone.
"Worried about Ruan Bai?" Song Beixi looked at the sadness in her eyes and her tone softened unconsciously.
He knew that she and Ruan Bai had known each other for many years, and it was normal for Li Ni to be worried when something happened to the other person.
Li Ni thought for a while, was the reason she couldn't sleep because she was worried about Ruan Bai? Not entirely. Her eyes fell on Song Beixi's face. The man in front of her was very handsome. Although he was not gentle or even cold, he was rich and wealthy.
He is the dream lover of many women in the city.
But when she was by his side, she felt no happiness, as if she was imprisoned.
Li Ni thought about the reason why she couldn't sleep, but she didn't dare to say it. She just nodded and said, "Well, it's been a week."
After saying that, she felt sad again. In front of Song Beixi, she was not even qualified to tell the truth because he didn't like it.
With a personality like his, if she heard words he didn't like, she would definitely torture herself twice as much, so she didn't dare to say it.
