Mu Shaoling's thoughts became more and more delicate. She didn't have any children, but she was preparing these packaging boxes...
It seems to be specially prepared for Ruoran.
Mu Shaoling saw through it but didn't point it out. Seeing that it was almost time, he stood up.
Nianmu picked up Taotao's schoolbag before he could speak.
"Sister?" Taotao asked confused. At the same time, Mu Shaoling also looked at her.
Being looked at by the father and son, Nian Mu felt a little embarrassed. She handed her schoolbag to the man, cleared her throat and said, "It's getting late. Mr. Mu should take the children back early."
"Sister, I want to go back after watching the cartoon." Taotao looked back at the wall clock above the TV. It was only eight o'clock, a full hour earlier than before.
Nian Mu thought for a while and persuaded: "The cake will not taste good if it is left for a long time."
When Taotao heard this, he thought that he was the only one who could eat here, and his brother and sister were both hungry. In order to let them eat the hot cake, he nodded, took the schoolbag and put it on his back, waving reluctantly.
: "Okay, let's go back."
When the child agreed to go back, Mu Shaoling didn't say anything and picked up the cake and briefcase on the coffee table.
Taotao held his sleeve obediently. When the father and son were about to leave, Nianmu saw Mu Shaoling's coat hanging on the hanger, walked over, picked it up, and handed it to him, "Mr. Mu, your coat."
Mu Shaoling took it and nodded, "Thank you."
The corners of Nianmu's mouth raised slightly. When he took it, their fingertips touched each other. The temperature buried deep in her memory was stirred up again, and she felt an electric current flowing uncontrollably through her body.
Nianmu gently rubbed his fingers, trying to hide the feeling in his heart.
After Taotao walked out of the apartment, she turned around and waved to her, "Goodbye, sister."
"Goodbye." Nianmu came back to his senses and waved.
This time she still stood by the door and watched the father and son get into the elevator before returning to the apartment and closing the door.
The living room of the apartment was empty except for the sound of the TV. At this moment, Taotao's favorite cartoon started.
Listening to the voices of the characters in the animation, Nian Mu's eyes turned red. Three years later, the child still likes this animation so much. Recalling the past, after a family of five had a meal, Mu Shaoling would sit with her if he didn't have to work overtime.
Let’s watch animations with the children together.
She really misses those times...
Nianmu picked up the remote control and turned off the TV.
It was still early, so she walked into the second bedroom and continued to study the antidote distributed by Terror Island.
Even if the police did not disclose too much, Nian Mu could guess that the real cause of death of the fake Ruan Bai was not torture as reported, but because he did not take the medicine in time.
She knew that even if Mu Shaoling cared about her, he would not take other people's lives at will. Shuo Feng and Qing Yu both came from the Terror Island. The first lesson of their training was to become familiar with the human body. If they avoid all the deadly things,
A place to torture someone.
Extracting the ingredients of the antidote is a difficult process, so Nian Mu patiently analyzed the properties of the medicine bit by bit.
The other side.
Taotao pulled Mu Shaoling's clothes and left the apartment. After getting in the car, he said seriously: "Dad, can you smile more in private in the future?"
"What?" After listening to his son's words, Mu Shaoling raised his eyebrows, started the car and rushed to the Mu family's old house.
"I think you are too serious. Other children are afraid of you, and my sister is also afraid of you. Dad, your stern face every day scares away all my friends. I almost have no friends." Taotao complained.
, after getting along with each other several times, how could he, who is so weird, not notice the clues?
"You have a lot of friends." Mu Shaoling was not fooled by his words. Even though he was too busy to take his children to and from school most of the time, he knew every move of his children in school with the teachers clearly.
Chu.
Taotao has a lively and cheerful personality, and is very popular among students and teachers at school. She is basically the king of children.
"Dad, you secretly got to know me with the teacher again, didn't you?" Taotao shook her legs with a knowing expression, "Okay, I do have many classmates and friends, but dad, every time you show up, my sister will be very unnatural.
, just like today, she doesn’t pick up food for me very much. It’s not like this usually. It must be dad who scares my sister with your stern face."
I don't know why, he can do things like picking up vegetables, but he especially wants Nian Mu to do it, so that it can show that she loves him very much.
But her abnormality today made Taotao realize that it was his father's problem.
It must be because his father often scares his sister with his stern face.
Taotao held her chin and looked at him sideways. It seemed that they rarely saw their father smile. Could he not smile?
Nor...
"Why do you think I scared her?" Mu Shaoling did not answer the child directly.
Nian Mu's behavior in front of him was indeed serious, meticulous, and careful in doing things, but his occasional movements and expressions were also very unnatural, as if he was afraid of himself.
Although eating together should be relaxing, for him, it was more important to find out Nian Mu's basics, so he couldn't relax. He was in the same state as he usually was.
"Dad, you are like an iron-faced god. Of course you scare your beautiful and kind-hearted sister." At this moment, Taotao was captured by Nianmu and he took the initiative to protect her.
"According to what you said, should I apologize?" Mu Shaoling talked to Taotao while driving.
Apologize?
Taotao didn't think much and nodded, "It would be best if dad is willing to apologize to my sister, but I haven't seen you apologize to anyone."
Mu Shaoling was speechless, he really thought about it.
He does not apologize to others easily. In his life, he has only apologized to two people.
One is Mr. Mu, and the other is Ruan Bai.
In the past, when he didn't know how to love someone, he often made Ruan Bai cry and made her feel bad, so he would take the initiative to apologize.
Thinking, they are the only people in this world who can make him apologize.
Seeing that he was silent, Taotao looked at him sideways and asked seriously: "Dad, how are you going to apologize?"
"Let's talk about it later." Mu Shaoling was a little perfunctory. When he thought about apologizing, he thought of Ruan Bai. His originally calm mood suddenly became turbulent.
Taotao turned her head and looked at the scenery outside and said, "You must be serious in your apology, otherwise my sister will not accept it."
Mu Shaoling: "..."
After he drove back to the Mu family's old house, Mr. Mu was sitting on the sofa drinking tea. Because he was getting older, he now also drank health tea and rarely came into contact with strong tea.
The smell of health-preserving tea is lighter. When the two walked into the living room, the aroma of tea that hit their faces made people feel refreshed.
