Nangong Si looked around and knocked on the door. The dust on the door fell swishingly, and his palms were also stained with a layer of dust.
"It seems there is no one." He shook his hand. He didn't know how long the dust had been sitting on it. It was so thick that even a germaphobe like him was unwilling to touch it.
Mu Shaoling glanced around the dilapidated house, turned around, and said, "You ask around, I'll go to the police station."
"Leave this to me." Nangong Si made an OK gesture and promised to complete the task. As for Aqiang's information, he would leave it to him, a "local snake", to investigate.
…
At ten o'clock in the evening, after Ruan Bai coaxed Taotao to sleep, he walked to the living room and made a cup of tea.
After leaving the amusement park, she never heard from Mu Shaoling.
Knowing that he was investigating something, she didn't bother him.
Holding tea, Ruan Bai sat on the soft cushion and turned on his laptop to draw designs.
At eleven o'clock, the sound of parking was heard outside, and Ruan Bai stood up. Her feet were numb from sitting on her knees for too long, so she had to hold on to the sofa and stand still to wait for the blood to circulate.
Mu Shaoling walked in and saw her standing bent next to the sofa. He strode over and said with obvious concern in his tone, "Honey, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ruan Bai looked at him and smiled helplessly, "I'm just numb."
Mu Shaoling glanced at the computer on the coffee table and knew that she was working in the living room. With a hint of reproach in his tone, he said, "I'll go to the study next time I work."
Ruan Bai held his arm tightly, "I wanted to wait for you to come back, but I was so absorbed in work that I didn't pay attention to my sitting posture..."
"Sit down and let me rub it for you." Mu Shaoling led her to sit on the sofa.
Ruan Bai followed his movements and put her legs on the sofa. His warm palms pressed down and placed her legs on his thighs, helping to clear her blood vessels step by step.
The fair and soft skin slid across her palms, and Mu Shaoling took even more care of her.
His movements were gentle and with just the right amount of force. The numbness in her legs subsided little by little, and she felt so comfortable that she couldn't help but say "hmm" softly.
Mu Shaoling looked at her face, he couldn't resist her charming voice.
"I didn't mean it." Ruan Bai realized that the sound he just made was a bit ambiguous and covered his face.
Mu Shaoling shook his head and pressed her legs in turn.
After a while, Ruan Bai felt his legs were numb, so he held down his hand and said, "I'm not numb anymore. Are you hungry? I've prepared a midnight snack for you."
Mu Shaoling stayed at the police station all afternoon to find this man named Aqiang.
But Aqiang's name was too common. Usually, there were only a few names recorded at the police station. He waited for an entire afternoon to check them one by one.
"Hungry." Mu Shaoling kissed her lips and kept investigating. He hadn't eaten yet.
"I'll heat it up and we'll eat it right away." Ruan Bai immediately put on his slippers and walked to the kitchen.
Mu Shaoling leaned on the sofa and looked at the design drawings on her computer. There were a few things that were not done yet, so he simply brought the computer over to help her modify it.
Ruan Bai walked out with midnight snacks and saw him using his computer, "What are you doing?"
"There are some data problems in the design drawing. Let me correct it for you." Mu Shaoling did not look up, but calculated the data.
Ruan Bai put the supper on the coffee table and said, "It's very late. Eat a little and don't be too full, otherwise you won't feel comfortable going to bed later."
"Yeah." Enjoying her thoughtfulness, Mu Shaoling corrected the last data and put down the computer. The hot late-night snack on the coffee table aroused his appetite. He picked it up and took a sip of the soup.
Ruan Bai sat next to him, picked up the computer and took a look. All the problematic data had been corrected.
She saved the design drawing, closed the computer, and looked at him. The light in her eyes was all because of him.
After Mu Shaoling finished his midnight snack, Ruan Bai did not rush to clean up, but asked with concern: "Are you tired?"
"Not tired." He shook his head and told her everything about today's investigation.
After Ruan Bai heard this, he sighed. The more he investigated, the more it proved that Zhang Yali was suspicious.
She stood up and put away the dishes. She turned around and Mu Shaoling pressed her against the kitchen counter. His hot breath sprayed down, a bit ambiguous.
Ruan Bai raised her head, and the incandescent light in the kitchen was bright, shining in her eyes, "It's very late, you go wash up and rest."
"Honey, I have neglected you during this time. I will accompany you tonight." Mu Shaoling put his arms around her waist. When he massaged her just now, his heart was full of warmth. He wanted to get closer to her.
Ruan Bai gently pressed his hands against his chest, shook his head and said, "No, I have something to do tomorrow."
Mu Shaoling kept rubbing her waist, as if massaging her. The slight intensity aroused the sensitivity between her cells, "What's the matter?"
"Ning Ning asked me to help her choose a wedding dress." Ruan Bai said helplessly.
"Don't go." When Mu Shaoling heard the name Lin Ning, he told her not to go without thinking.
Lin Ning is a person who has a lot of troubles and nothing good happens to him.
Ruan Bai looked at him with both eyes, "I can't put it down. I plan to go there for a while and then find a reason to leave."
She and Lin Ning are both Zhou Qing's daughters. If you ignore them directly, you will be said to have no regard for sisterhood. This label is put on her head, which is very ugly.
"Troublesome woman." Mu Shaoling scolded directly. When Ruan Bai didn't recognize Zhou Qing, he should have been ruthless and let her disappear directly from the country.
The initial mercy made it more troublesome now.
Ruan Bai laughed playfully, "Don't worry, what can happen if you look at the wedding dress?"
Mu Shaoling picked her up, Ruan Bai exclaimed, and immediately put her hands around his neck. She also hugged him tightly because of the need for security.
"I'm not worried. Bring some bodyguards." He said as he walked towards the stairs.
"You don't have to be so grand..." Ruan Bai frowned slightly and looked into his deep eyes. Lin Ning tried her best to marry He Boying. Naturally, she would not cause anything to affect the progress of the wedding.
"That woman is full of evil." Mu Shaoling stepped up the stairs, his words filled with disgust for Lin Ning.
"I'll let Zhang Jingxuan follow, okay?" Ruan Bai felt that it was a bit exaggerated to take a few bodyguards out at every turn, so he discussed it with him.
Mu Shaoling knew what she was thinking and raised the corners of his mouth wantonly, "Then it depends on your performance tonight."
"Well, I really have to go out." Ruan Bai lay on his neck begging for mercy and discussing, "How about tomorrow night?"
"I'm in the mood." Mu Shaoling kicked open the bedroom door, kicked it shut, put her on the bed, leaned against it, and looked down at her, "Honey, it's not you trying on the wedding dress tomorrow, it's okay."
Ruan Bai's red lips opened slightly, but he stopped talking.
Mu Shaoling said again: "You won't reject me, right?"
"It's very late..." Ruan Bai was about to cry but had no tears. If she had known that the massage would be so irritating, she would have stood still without him touching her.
Mu Shaoling stretched out his hand to press the lamp on the bedside table and held her in his arms, "It's very late, let's rest."
