"Is this the way this diary was when it first came into your hands?" She said in an urgent tone.
"Yes, I haven't touched it. I only read the contents inside." Gu Ci was cautious. He had no choice but to hide this from her. Now he was very afraid that she would be angry.
"That's not right." Cheng Lu pointed to the ink marks on the diary, "The dates of the last few diary entries are very close together, and they were all written within half a month. But why is the ink mark on the last entry so new?
…”
Her nimble fingers turned through the pages.
Gu Ci also noticed it: "Indeed."
"Can you take me to see Mu Cang? There are some things I want to ask him face to face."
Her big dark eyes stared at Gu Ci, full of expectation.
The man's throat tightened: "Okay."
She breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll wait for you here, and you can take me there when you're done, okay?"
"good……"
Gu Ci kissed her forehead, "Are you sure you're okay? You don't need me to stay with you here?"
She closed her eyes.
When she opened it again, her eyes were clear.
She smiled and shook her head: "I'm fine. I'll wait for you here. Go quickly."
Gu Ci reluctantly left: "I'll finish my work soon, wait for me."
Cheng Lu nodded lightly.
The office door closed again, and the surroundings returned to silence.
The smile on her face disappeared, she sat down again, and looked at the thin diary in her hand over and over again. But she never dared to turn to the last page, even if she suspected that the last chapter was fake, she
I don’t have the courage to watch it again just yet.
Tears fell one drop at a time, and she swallowed more silently.
Gu Ci returned to the conference room.
Outside the door, Mu Cang was leaning against the wall with a smirk on his face.
"Why didn't you tell her that I was in Haofeng Group?"
Gu Ci glanced coldly: "I can't tell that you not only talk a lot, but also like to listen to people in corners. This doesn't look like someone from the Mu family."
"You don't talk much, but you haven't mentioned anything that should be said, and you don't look like someone from the Gu family."
Mu Cang imitated his words and smiled playfully.
Gu Ci: "Hurry up to the meeting. After dinner, she wants to see you."
"Oh, is this an invitation to me for dinner?" Mu Cang's eyes lit up instantly.
"You think too much."
After the meeting, Gu Ci came to take Cheng Lu back.
Even though she tried hard to hide it, he could still see traces of her crying.
The two big bright eyes were slightly red and swollen, and there was still wet moisture under them.
Gu Ci felt a pain in his heart, so he had to pretend not to notice and held her little hand tightly.
"Let's go and eat first. I've already booked a nearby restaurant."
"Aren't you going home to eat?"
"Don't you still want to see Mu Cang? I've already made an appointment with him. We'll meet him in a nearby hotel conference room after dinner. Let's go back after we've finished talking."
Gu Cicai didn't want anyone to step into Chen Garden.
For him, Chenyuan is a world exclusive to him and her.
Who is Mu Cang? What qualifications does he have to enter?
He didn't want her to know about such domineering and monopolizing thoughts.
On the table are seafood carefully selected by Gu Ci.
He carefully asked the obstetrician and gynecologist about everything to make sure that the pregnant woman was fine after eating it before bringing it to Cheng Lu.
Even if she lost her appetite, she still ate a lot because Gu Ci was so attentive.
Before dinner was over, suddenly there was another person at the table.
Mu Cang whistled: "What a coincidence, you guys are eating here too, and I happen to be hungry. This guy Gu Ci invited me to dinner, but I haven't filled my stomach until now. It's not like he wants to meet me.
The attitude that a person should have.”
Gu Ci's temperament suddenly sank, and a faint chill emanated from him.
Of course Cheng Lu understood what he meant.
She held Gu Ci's big hand under the table and gently rubbed it in his palm.
"Good evening, Uncle Mu. Please sit down. If you don't mind, order some of your favorite food and we'll eat together. I just have something to ask you." She smiled politely.
When Mu Cang heard the name she addressed him, the corners of his eyes twitched unhappily.
He sat across from the two of them and casually ordered a few dishes.
The portion is not much and the price is very expensive.
Mu Cang blinked: "It's rare for Mr. Gu to treat you, so of course I want to give him a good meal."
Gu Ci glanced coldly and said nothing.
Cheng Lu was almost finished eating, and Mu Cang was just starting.
But she was very patient and did not speak eagerly. Instead, she whispered to Gu Ci while waiting for Mu Cang to finish.
Mu Cang regretted it.
He just saw the two of them being intimate together, and he was so angry that he wanted to disrupt the situation.
Unexpectedly, he became a trial user of Ace Dog Food.
The taste of sitting in the first class seat is really indescribable.
He quickly finished the food on the plate and wiped the corners of his mouth: "Tell me, what do you want from me?"
"Uncle Mu, Gu Ci asked you to find the whereabouts of my master before. Did your people only find that diary? It shouldn't be possible. There are other things there. I want to take a look."
Mu Cang raised his eyes in surprise and met her eyes as bright as the stars.
"How do you know there is? Maybe my people didn't bring anything back, but just the diary. Originally, this was the only thing with written records in that stone house. If we didn't take him, how could we take those bottles?
Bottles and cans?" he said with a smile.
"Very good, I just want to see those bottles and cans. Could you please Uncle Mu to make it easier for me?"
Mu Cang opened his mouth and was speechless.
This little woman really knows how to catch the flaws in his words.
Gu Ci on the side did not move his eyebrows, but looked at her from time to time, full of joy and pride.
"Don't try to fool my wife, Mu Cang, just tell the truth. Apart from the diary, what else did you bring back?" Gu Cipi twitched the corner of his mouth with a smile.
Mu Cang sighed: "Really not."
"Uncle Mu, you have been a genius of the Mu family since you were a child, and your behavior is different from others. You have also heard of the name of the Magical Medicine Immortal. My master's whereabouts are unknown in the Snowfield Continent. Now that he has found his temporary residence, you actually know how to do it.
Just take a diary?”
Cheng Lu raised his eyebrows slightly, "My husband doesn't understand my master, so it's understandable that he was deceived by you. But I'm different -"
At this point, she paused and said, "Please let me go and take a look. Otherwise, I will release the news about the murder of my master and make the entire pharmacist circle stand against you."
Mu Cang's heart tightened: "Hey, hey, this isn't fun."
"I'm not kidding you." She narrowed her eyes, "With my master's last words in my hand and my status, even if I can't do it thoroughly, I can still make it difficult for you to move forward in the pharmacist circle."
Mu Cang's fingertips trembled.
He put away his original cynical smile and looked at her with unruly and full of interest.
Suddenly, a more fierce and domineering aura from the side monopolized his attack.
