Nian Mu originally wanted to let the children combine work and rest, so they don't have to rush to finish all their homework.
But thinking that if she did this, the children might lose their interest in doing homework and they might become lazy in the future, so she gave up and let them go upstairs to do their homework.
When the children were doing their homework, she didn't need her to stay by their side to help them, so she went into the study room and continued to do research.
She has almost finished researching the antidote. When she has some free time during the Chinese New Year, she should be able to analyze all the ingredients and then make a ratio.
The busy time passed quickly. When the alarm clock on his phone rang, Nian Mu picked it up and looked at it, only to realize that it was already 10:30 pm.
After standing up and stretching, he quickly left the study.
Nian Mu first walked to Mu Shaoling's bedroom door and took a look, but he hadn't come back yet.
It seems that he is still working overtime at T Group.
She then walked to the door of each child's bedroom, opened the door gently, and saw that they were already lying on the bed and sleeping, before returning to her own bedroom.
After washing, Nianmu opened the bedroom door again and took a look at the bedroom opposite.
Mu Shaoling hasn't come back yet.
Nian Mu sighed softly and came downstairs. He first took a look at the food in the kitchen. Even though it was kept warm, the food was a bit cold.
She didn't dare to heat it again because she didn't know when Mu Shaoling would come back.
If you heat it too often, it will affect the taste.
Nian Mu sat on the sofa, watching the midnight news reports, waiting for Mu Shaoling to come back.
After about an hour, the sound of traffic was heard from the front yard.
Nian Mu stood up, looked towards the floor-to-ceiling windows, and saw Mu Shaoling slowly walking towards the inner room.
She hurried back to the kitchen and heated the food left for him in the microwave.
Mu Shaoling walked into the living room and heard noises from the kitchen. Looking at the TV that was on and the tea cup on the coffee table, he knew that Nian Mu was waiting for him.
Walking into the kitchen, she was standing at the kitchen counter busy.
Mu Shaoling stepped forward, hugged her waist, rested his chin gently on the top of her head, and let out a light and contented sigh, "What are you busy with?"
Being held by him like this, Nian Mu couldn't help but tense up, "I'm heating up the food..."
"I've eaten." Mu Shaoling said. She didn't like working overtime hungry, so when Dong Zijun ordered a meal, he also asked for a meal.
"How about some soup?" Nian Mu said. The soup Aunt Wu made today was rich in nutrients and good for his body, which often worked overtime.
"Okay." Mu Shaoling hugged her and said.
"Mr. Mu, please put it down for a moment..." Nian Mu reminded him that it would be inconvenient for her to do things while being held like this.
When Mu Shaoling heard this, he let go of her with a smile.
Nian Mu put on his gloves, took out the soup heated in the microwave, put it on the tray, and then took out the food, "Although you have eaten, you can still eat a little. The food cooked by Aunt Wu today is quite delicious."
.”
"Okay." Mu Shaoling looked at the soup and vegetables on the tray and felt a little hungry.
Nian Mu brought the tray to the dining table, then turned back and took the bowl and chopsticks, placing them in front of Mu Shaoling.
"Thank you." Mu Shaoling picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the food. After tasting it carefully, he looked at Nian Mu with a smile.
"What's wrong?" Nian Mu was confused by what he saw.
"Is this the dish cooked by Aunt Wu? I don't think it tastes like it." Mu Shaoling said.
"You have such a sharp mouth, I did it." Nianmu had no choice but to admit.
"Thank you for leaving the food for me. I will finish it all." Mu Shaoling said. In the past, he had to work overtime at the company until very late before going home. She did the same, preparing food and soup for him.
After eating the food she cooked, he always felt that his spirit would be much better.
This may be the power of love.
Nian Mu smiled, sat aside and watched him finish eating and drinking, then stood up and prepared to clean up.
"I'll take care of it later." Mu Shaoling said, raising his hand and holding Nian Mu's hand.
She sat down and looked at him.
Mu Shaoling said: "Tomorrow is Ruicheng's mother's birthday. Then you can go to the banquet together."
Nian Mu frowned. She originally thought she had nothing to do with her, but now Mu Shaoling asked her to go to the banquet with her...
"Mr. Mu, can I not go?" She felt a little resistant.
"Why?" Mu Shaoling asked.
"I don't like lively scenes very much, and I don't know many of those people, so I'd better not go there to avoid embarrassment." Nian Mu said, and Cai Xiufen didn't like her either.
If she appears, it will really cause trouble for Cai Xiufen.
A good birthday party, Nian Mu thinks it’s better to give Cai Xiufen a little comfort...
"This is the old man's invitation." Mu Shaoling knew what she was worried about, so he moved the old man out.
Nian Mu was silent. Do you have to go? She would rather not be invited. After all, she has not experienced that kind of occasion for more than three years. She will definitely not be able to adapt to it again.
"This time Ruicheng and the others are the protagonists, and I can stay by your side." Mu Shaoling said.
Nian Mu felt like his head was heavy. He was by his side. Even if the protagonists were Cai Xiufen and Mu Ruicheng, he would unconsciously become the focus of the audience.
"The children also want you to go." Seeing that she was silent, Mu Shaoling continued.
"Mr. Mu..." Nian Mu still wanted to refuse. She didn't want to be on tomorrow's news headlines, nor did she want to be the subject of discussions among the rich after dinner.
"Also, Li Ni will also go." Mu Shaoling said.
"Why did Li Ni go?" Nian Mu was surprised. Could it be that Song Beixi was invited, so would Li Ni go with her?
But the Song family is very opposed to Li Ni being with Song Beixi. If she really shows up, won't she be made things difficult for her?
"Last time, grandpa recognized Li Ni as his goddaughter. Although it was for the Song family, he still had to act to the end. If Li Ni was not invited this time, what would the Song family think?" Mu Shaoling explained to her.
Why did Li Ni also attend Cai Xiufen's birthday party?
Nian Mu nodded, feeling that what he said made sense.
Although it is fake, Mr. Mu and Li Ni must do these superficial things well in front of others, especially the Song family.
In this way, the Song family has no reason or excuse to hurt Li Ni again.
"If you stay with Li Ni, she will feel much more at ease." Mu Shaoling said. Although Li Ni and Song Beixi would both attend Cai Xiufen's birthday party, he specifically told Mu Ruicheng not to take advantage of the position arrangement.
Li Ni and Song Beixi arranged to get together.
Although Song Beixi had a lot of trouble with the Song family, their family still had to sit together on these occasions. Li Ni would suffer if she was arranged to go there.
"Okay..." Nianmu finally agreed, because Li Ni.
She couldn't bear to see Li Ni being bullied by the Song family, and she also knew that she was just like herself. Although she had a wonderful life in the past, they didn't have much desire to make friends with those people from the upper class who they couldn't talk to.
