Especially, she had lost her biological daughter and had long regarded Lin Ning as her own. Now she saw the tears of grievance in her adopted daughter's eyes, as if she was still in despair, which made her extremely distressed.
She hugged Lin Ning and said gently: "Daughter, tell your mother if you have been wronged."
Lin Ning thought of Mu Shaoling's unfeeling attitude toward her, and wanted to complain to Zhou Qing.
However, she was afraid that this would cause her mother's prejudice against Mu Shaoling, so she had no choice but to swallow those words.
Her eyes flickered and she sobbed: "Mom, Shao Ling...he doesn't seem to like me, and that Ruan Bai is not an economical person at all. Today at Mu's house, she deliberately made me look embarrassed and set up a trap for me.
Trap. I relied on my little cleverness to show off my talents in front of Grandpa Mu. Now even Grandpa Mu has a biased impression of her, and he is much colder towards me... Mom, I really like Mu Shaoling.
.He is the first man I like in my life, what should I do?"
Lin Ning lay on Zhou Qing's shoulder, warm tears falling down her cheeks.
Zhou Qing saw her daughter's sad look of being hurt by love, and lovingly wiped away her tears with a tissue.
She handed Lin Ning a glass of warm water and comforted: "Ning Ning, good boy... don't cry. Since you like Mu Shaoling, mother will try her best to help you."
Lin Ning held the water glass and said pitifully: "I don't know if I did something wrong. I know that his heart is not with me, but I still love him. And this love is not due to his love for me.
Instead of being cold and disappearing, it is like hot water in a pot, boiling more and more. I feel that I am hopeless..."
Zhou Qing saw that her daughter was distracted when she mentioned Mu Shaoling. As someone who has experienced this, she naturally knew that Ning Ning was in deep trouble.
Although Zhou Qing felt distressed, she had to correct her attitude and said: "There is nothing wrong with liking someone. What's more, Mu Shaoling is not married to Ruan Bai, but if he has decided that Ruan Bai is not just for fun, then
It’s not easy for us to forcefully blend in. My daughter is so excellent, and we don’t bother to be the third party to ruin other people’s feelings..."
At first, Zhou Qing actually didn't take a small character like Ruan Bai seriously.
Because she feels that her adopted daughter is much better than Ruan Bai in terms of family background, appearance, and career. She believes that her daughter, a socialite, can easily capture the man she loves.
Unexpectedly, she underestimated Ruan Bai.
In Zhou Qing's eyes, Lin Ning was sensible, kind, and well-educated, while that Ruan Bai was unruly, stubborn, and her family background was worse than that of ordinary people. How could she really marry into the Mu family.
Lin Ning closed her eyes, covering up the complicated light in her eyes.
Mu Shaoling was the only surprise she encountered in her life, but this surprise now turned into a sharp blade, stabbing her heart to bleed and ruthlessly slaughtering her own spirit.
But despite this, she still couldn't bear to let go.
She can give up everything, but she can't give up that man!
…
In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival is approaching.
The employees of the group have been on vacation one after another, but Mu Shaoling suddenly fell ill at this time.
He was indeed too tired during this time.
He rushes to the company early every morning, and basically works overtime until late every day, and is at the company almost 24 hours a day.
In addition, in order to deal with the recent arson incident in a branch of T Group, he was extremely busy every day in order to deal with the aftermath perfectly.
Not long after the year, it was the day when the female arsonist Dong Jingjing was put on trial.
He promised Sun Anguo that Dong Jingjing would be sentenced to death.
A gentleman's words are worth a thousand dollars, and he must keep his word.
Mu Shaoling contacted some high-level officials he knew in Kyoto, and after chatting with them on the phone, he hurriedly held a shareholders' meeting in the company and dealt with some equity changes in the board of directors.
Then, he held two video conferences with foreign partners and secured two cases worth hundreds of millions.
In the afternoon, the twins suddenly had bad stomachs and turned pale with discomfort. He had no choice but to take the babies to the hospital with Ruan Bai. After their condition stabilized, he breathed a sigh of relief. It was already evening.
In the evening, Mu Shaoling's always healthy body finally couldn't hold on anymore and he had a fever.
The result of overwork.
In fact, when he got up early to work, Mu Shaoling felt a stuffy nose and a sore throat, and felt that something was wrong with him, but he thought he could handle it and didn't take it to heart. He didn't expect that it would become so serious at night.
His throat hurt as if on fire, and his body felt inexplicably cold and hot. The alternating feeling of hot and cold was really unbearable.
Especially his head, he had a headache that almost exploded, and his body felt like a thousand kilograms of concrete had been poured into it. It was so heavy that he could hardly breathe!
Ruan Bai sat on the edge of the bed, tucking Mu Shao Lingye, whose face was red with fever, and her eyes were red with distress. This man had always been strong, but she had never seen him look so weak.
He worked so hard that even a strong body could not withstand such a torment.
Ruan Bai took out the thermometer.
The high temperature above shocked her, and her voice trembled: "Thirty-nine degrees seven, the fever is so serious! You lie down first, I have already called Si Yao, he is here now
On the way here..."
"It's okay, it's just a common cold. Don't worry too much." Mu Shaoling comforted Ruan Bai in turn.
Just a fever.
It's nothing in his eyes.
Ruan Bai frowned and went to pour him a cup of hot water. Then, she went to the bathroom, soaked a cold towel, folded it, and gently applied it on his fevered forehead.
Let's cool him down physically for the time being.
Mu Shaoling was very cooperative despite being groggy. Smelling the natural and pleasant fragrance emanating from Ruan Bai's body, his physical discomfort seemed to be relieved a lot.
"Shaoling, drink some hot water first." Ruan Bai used all his strength to push Mu Shaoling's body against the head of the bed.
She used her slender body as his support and slowly fed the almost cold warm water into the man's dry and painful throat.
"Slow down, don't choke..." Ruan Bai acted very gently, treating him as if he were taking care of a child.
In the chaos, Mu Shaoling only felt that Ruan Bai's gentle voice was like the sound of nature, and her caring behavior made a warm current flow through his heart.
Ever since he was a child, no one has ever cared so much about him. He is really lucky to have such a gentle and considerate woman like Ruan Bai.
