Chapter 1552 The premise is that you can't leave his side
The sky gradually darkened. Nianmu glanced at the time and saw that it was already six-thirty.
The smell of rice wafted from the kitchen, and it seemed that the nanny was almost ready for dinner.
It’s just that the weather is...
Taotao saw her looking out the window, came over and asked curiously: "Sister, what are you looking at?"
"It seems like it's going to rain." Nianmu looked at the dark sky. It didn't look like it would be dark normally, but it looked like it was going to rain.
"Oh, it really seems like it's going to rain. I'm going to see if my clothes have been packed away." Zhou Qing also glanced out the window and hurriedly walked to the balcony on the second floor.
"Aunt, let me help you." Nianmu saw this and followed him upstairs.
After arriving on the second floor, Nian Mu glanced at the room on his left, which was Lin Wenzheng's study.
The study door was open, and Mu Shaoling and Lin Wenzheng were inside, talking about things.
Nian Mu listened to a few sentences, both of which were about antiques, so she followed Zhou Qing to the balcony to collect her clothes.
The clothes hanging on the balcony belonged to Lin Wenzheng, Zhou Qing, and Lin Ning. She reminded: "Auntie, these clothes..."
Zhou Qing understood immediately and looked back. Mu Shaoling didn't come out. She quickly stuffed Lin Ning's clothes under the clothes basket, and then covered them with her own clothes and Lin Wenzheng's clothes.
After putting away the clothes, the wind on the balcony became stronger and stronger.
Zhou Qing's broken hair was messy, and she looked at Nian Mu, "Xiao Nian, let's go in, it looks like there's going to be a heavy rain..."
Nianmu glanced at the sky. The clouds were very low. If the rain really started to fall, he didn't know when it would start.
The two of them walked in quickly, just as Mu Shaoling and Lin Wenzheng walked out of the study.
"What's your hair like..." Lin Wenzheng looked at their messy hair and asked in confusion.
"The wind on the balcony is too strong, it's going to rain." Zhou Qing explained, closed the balcony door, looked at the two of them, couldn't help but become nervous, and hugged the clothes basket tightly, "I just went to put away the clothes.
Now, go put it away first, then go downstairs and get ready for dinner."
She deliberately raised her voice a little so that Lin Ning could hear her.
Lin Wenzheng nodded and said to Mu Shaoling: "Shaoling, let's go downstairs."
"Yes." Mu Shaoling nodded and looked at Nian Mu. Her hair was also messed up by the wind, "Let's go downstairs together."
"Okay." Nian Mu nodded and went downstairs with them.
Zhou Qing stood at the top of the stairs, watching them go downstairs. He quickly walked to the bedroom, picked up the phone and told Lin Ning again not to make any noise.
Lin Ning, who was lying in the bedroom, received Zhou Qing's WeChat message and rolled her eyes.
She has been hiding here silently, why is she still so verbose? Is she really worried that she will be discovered by Mu Shaoling, or is she worried that if Mu Shaoling finds out, he will blame her?
After the nanny prepared the meal, she invited them to the dining room to eat.
A long table was full of people, and the atmosphere was cheerful.
Lin Wenzheng was happy, opened a bottle of red wine, picked up the glass, and asked, "Shaoling, is Mr. Mu going to have a big birthday party this time?"
"It's going to be a big event. We've already booked a banquet at the hotel." Mu Shaoling said. The Mu family takes Mr. Mu's birthday very seriously.
Even though Mr. Mu said that there was no need to make a big deal, he and Mu Ruicheng still persisted because it was related to the image of the Mu family.
"It's time to make a big deal. By the way, will Xiao Bai come back by then?" Lin Wenzheng asked again. He liked Ruan Bai's daughter more than Lin Ning.
Listening to his question, Nianmu hesitated while picking up the food, but then he returned to his nonchalant look.
Ruan Bai will definitely not come back, but it is unreasonable for her, as his grandson's wife, not to show up on Mr. Mu's birthday.
What should Mu Shaoling do?
"Xiaobai is busy studying abroad and may not be able to come back that day." Mu Shaoling said.
"That's such a pity. I still wanted to see Xiaobai that day. How could this child go on a study tour just because she said she was going to study? It's really disturbing to abandon her husband and children like this. I didn't know she was out there.
How are you doing?" Zhou Qing looked melancholy.
She hasn't had a direct conversation with Ruan Bai for a long time. Although she usually replies to the WeChat messages she sends her to care about, she never replies in time, as if she is very busy.
"Xiaobai is chasing her dream, and I support her." Mu Shaoling's expression remained unchanged.
"Yes, it's a good thing for my mother to study. Grandma, my teacher said that learning is endless and hard... why is it hard?" Taotao interjected, but for a moment she forgot what the teacher said.
Zhan Zhan said for him: "There is no limit to learning and hard work."
"Yes, yes, brother is right, so we should all learn from mom." Taotao nodded quickly, finished speaking, and took a bite of rice.
Zhou Qing smiled softly, "That's right, but after all, I still have a family. It's because I didn't educate myself well, Shao Ling, you're in trouble."
"I'm not tired. Xiaobai is with me. You just have to do what you want." Mu Shaoling took a sip of warm water because he had to drive back later, so he didn't drink with Lin Wenzheng.
Nian Mu's hands shook. Once upon a time, Mu Shaoling did say exactly the same thing to her, but this sentence had a premise.
The premise is that you can't leave his side.
Thinking of this, her heart inevitably fluctuated. She controlled her emotions and picked up the food silently.
"Sister, can you pick up a piece of ribs for me?" Taotao tugged on her sleeve.
Nianmu came to his senses and gave him a piece of ribs.
Mu Shaoling's eyes fell on her, glanced at her, and then moved away.
"Xiaobai is so lucky to have a husband like you." Although Zhou Qing felt a little strange, she couldn't explain why.
Logically speaking, Ruan Bai should not leave her children behind and study abroad with her husband, but she has lost her memory and her feelings for her children are not that deep.
So it's not surprising that she would do this.
Zhou Qing asked again: "By the way, will Xiaobai come back during the New Year?"
"No." Mu Shaoling said.
"That's it..." There was an unspeakable loneliness on Zhou Qing's face. After all, Ruan Bai was her daughter. Even if she lost her memory, she couldn't change this fact.
Nianmu looked at the loneliness on Zhou Qing's face and secretly apologized.
She was right in front of them, but due to various reasons, they could not recognize her and could only get along with them as Nian Mu.
"Boom!" When they were about to finish eating, the brewing rain still started to fall.
The nanny came in with a fruit plate and said: "Sir, Madam, I heard that it will rain all night. Can I rest in the villa tonight?"
Because Zhou Qing was in good health, the nanny who had been working full-time at the Lin family made a request to go home at night and not stay at the Lin family home after get off work every day.
