Although it was said that Nian Mu was studying when Chauvin was killed and his death had nothing to do with her, Mu Shaoling always felt that the matter was not that simple.
Nian Mu seemed to be tentative when listening to his words. However, the time of Chauvin's murder was not directly related to hers, so she seemed very calm. She shook her head and said, "It's not impossible for someone to eat something for everyone."
Amul listened to Mu Shaoling's probing words and remained silent without speaking.
Now that the police believe that the deaths of Chauvin and his subordinates were a result of gangsterism, there is no need for him to say anything. Anyway, they can't find him, and it won't affect Nian Mu.
"Yeah." Mu Shaoling nodded and kept paying attention to Amul from the corner of his eye. Although they were unrelated siblings, he felt that the way they got along was not similar at all.
His nose was sensitive and he smelled the smell of medicine when Amul came in.
Mu Shaoling asked again: "Mr. Amul, why did you appear in the United States this time?"
"Do something." Amul said.
Nian Mu glanced at Mu Shaoling and then at Amul. She felt that the smell of gunpowder smoke in the air was stronger. She quickly asked: "Mr. Mu, how are the police going to deal with the matter of the two college students?"
"Business matters," Mu Shaoling said, without any sympathy or pity.
Nian Mu had long known that he would say this. Except for his family and loved ones, he would not be soft-hearted towards anyone else, especially those who had hurt him.
Amul also understood the general situation, listened to his words, and said: "Those two are just college students."
Mu Shaoling raised his eyebrows. This sentence sounded like what parents often say when defending their children to others. He is just a child.
Amul continued: "But he tried to hurt my sister. This matter cannot be left alone."
Mu Shaoling nodded and said, "That's natural."
Nian Mu was suddenly speechless. This should be the first time the two of them had a consistent conversation.
The doorbell of the guest room rang again. Nian Mu stood up and said, "It should be room service."
At the same time, Mu Shaoling also stood up and said, "Well, I'm going back first."
Taotao heard this and stood up, wondering why his father left at this time, but he wanted to leave and he couldn't stay here, so he followed.
Nian Mu opened the door, and sure enough, the waiter was standing at the door with a dining station, serving her meals with a smile.
She opened the door completely, and the waiter pushed the dinner in and pushed away the dining cart with breakfast.
After the waiter left, Mu Shaoling stood at the door and warned, "Finish your dinner."
"Okay." Nian Mu nodded, her heartbeat inevitably accelerated after listening to his instructions, and she closed the door.
Amul noticed the change in her expression and felt complicated.
Perhaps she didn't even notice that her "good" words just now contained feelings of friendship, just like the tone of a pregnant girl speaking to her sweetheart. Her lingering feelings were not difficult to detect.
Nian Mu turned around, met Amul's eyes, combed his hair, and asked: "Amul, have you had dinner? If not, eat some here."
"Already eaten." Amul said, but finally couldn't help but remind her, "If you want to protect Mu Shaoling, the best way is not to get close, but to stay away."
Nian Mu's expression stiffened slightly. Of course she knew that when she became Mu Shaoling's wife, she became her ex-partner, and that was why so many things happened.
The best way to prevent Mu Shaoling and the children from being harmed is to stay away.
But there are some things that you can’t just stay away from if you want to…
Nianmu wanted to stay away before returning to City A, but now she has no way to do it. Even though there is still a certain distance between the two, she can still feel that the distance between them is getting closer and closer.
In the beginning, it was completely different.
"I know..." she said.
Amul noticed the loss in Nianmu's eyes when she said this. He understood that she loved that man and was even able to make all sacrifices for him.
But after staying on the horror island for a long time and doing more things, he felt that Nian Mu was playing with fire and burning himself.
"You can risk everything for that man, but there is still Nian Nian. She is still young and cannot live without her mother." Amul reminded, if it weren't for Nian Nian's existence, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to survive today...
Nian Mu nodded. Thinking of her little daughter, she silently clenched her fists. No matter what happened in the future, she would take her little daughter away from that terrifying island.
Amul sighed. She was kind to him. Putting aside those complicated feelings, he just wanted to stop her from risking her life for that man. He didn't want to see her die...
Amul stood up and said, "You can have dinner first, I'll go back to the guest room first."
"Okay." Nian Mu nodded. After Amul left, she opened the food on the dining car and looked at the steak on it. She had no appetite at all.
…
Taotao was led by Mu Shaoling into the elevator. He raised his head and said, "Dad, how can you let your sister be alone with that uncle?"
"They are brother and sister." Mu Shaoling swiped the room card and the elevator slowly moved up.
Taotao nodded and added: "But my sister looks nothing like him, and I think that uncle's feelings for my sister are unusual."
Mu Shaoling listened to the child's childlike words and suddenly felt speechless.
He calls Nianmu his sister, and Amul is her brother, but he calls him uncle? Don’t you think it’s weird?
Seeing that he was silent, Taotao shook his hand and said, "Dad, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing." Mu Shaoling said calmly.
"If you don't hurry up, my sister will be snatched away." Taotao muttered.
"Why did you say that?" Although the child was muttering, the surrounding environment was still quiet, and Mu Shaoling could hear it clearly.
Taotao raised her head and said, "I like my sister and want to live with her for a long time."
Living together for a long time? Mu Shaoling suddenly understood what he meant and said, "You still have a mother."
Taotao said with a distressed look on her face: "I know, it's just because of my mother that I don't dare to say that..."
"If there was no mother, would you dare?" Mu Shaoling suddenly teased him. When the elevator reached the floor, he took the child out of the elevator.
"I dare you. If I didn't have a mother, I would definitely ask my father to marry my sister to be my mother, and..." Taotao paused.
Mu Shaoling walked to the door of the guest room and swiped the key card, "And what?"
"Furthermore, Dad, you don't love Mom at all. You haven't loved Mom since she lost her memory." Although Taotao is young, she can see many things clearly.
