Bai Yueguang she was reborn

Chapter 266 Is this the life you want?

With crisp ears, Ruan Yuebai hid in his arms for a while.

"I'm going upstairs."

"Accompany me."

Mu Xiao didn't give her a chance to dodge at all, and sat at the table while grabbing her hand.

As soon as his butt touched the stool, Ruan Yuebai got up and wanted to leave, but Mu Xiao was so strong that he simply pressed her on his lap and held her tightly in his arms.

"You're such an old man, do you still need someone to accompany you when you eat?" Ruan Yuebai pursed her lips, struggling to stand up, but before she could even move a few times, she felt the man's breathing suddenly became heavy.

"Don't move around." Mu Xiao's voice became even hoarse, "Finish lunch with me."

The different touch made Ruan Yuebai's cheeks turn red instantly.

Seeing her suddenly freeze, Xiao Lin looked at her with some doubts, but before he could see the expression on her face, Mu Xiao's cold eyes fell.

His body shivered involuntarily, and Xiao Lin immediately turned his eyes away, "I, I'll go to the kitchen first and urge them to hurry up."

After speaking, she left the restaurant as if fleeing.

The huge restaurant fell silent, Ruan Yuebai fiddled with the napkins and wine glasses on the table, pretending not to feel the cold breath of the man behind him.

The clock not far away turned the second hand, making a ticking sound, and Ruan Yuebai's heartbeat unconsciously overlapped with the frequency of the second hand.

Seeing her intentionally ignoring him, Mu Xiao's lips pursed into a line.

Raising his left hand with a slight force, the small face as big as a palm had to turn to face him.

"What have you been up to these days?"

The black eyes tightly caught her dodging gaze, and the man frowned in displeasure.

Hearing his question, Ruan Yuebai suddenly felt a little wronged.

"Is it me who is awkward or you who are awkward?"

She used all her strength to break free from Mu Xiao's arms, "Since you don't regard me as the closest person, then I will keep a distance from you."

Biting her lip and looking at him, Ruan Yuebai saw that his gaze suddenly became gloomy.

"Ruan Ruan, I don't want you to get involved in this matter."

"But I'm your wife, and I've been involved since the day I moved into Tanyuan."

Ruan Yuebai insisted: "You say you are protecting me, that proves that your illness is man-made, right?"

Hearing her speculation, Mu Xiao didn't answer, but looked at her silently.

But Ruan Yuebai knew that she was right.

"Mu Xiao, someone is hurting you, but I don't know anything, how can you let me accept you calmly from now on?

From now on, every morning when I open my eyes, I will think, will someone hurt you secretly today; every night before I go to bed, I will think, today you have worked hard to protect me for a day, and I just eat and drink every day, like a caged animal. Get up and enjoy everything you have to offer me like a pet.

Is this the life you want? "

Listening to her confiding in every word, Mu Xiao's lips were drawn into a line.

Undercurrents surged in the depths of the black eyes, and the ferocious beast that had finally fallen asleep in the depths of his heart faintly showed signs of recovery.

"Ruan Ruan, I never treated you as a pet."

"Then tell me what kind of disease you have and who made you like this."

Ruan Yuebai said earnestly, "Honey, maybe I can help you?"

The undercurrent in the black eyes gradually turned into turbulent waves, and the eyes that were a little soft just now were frozen to the point of cold.

Seeing his silent appearance, Ruan Yuebai sighed in frustration.

Just as he was about to turn around and go upstairs, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

Looking at the name on the caller ID, Ruan Yuebai was taken aback for a moment, then answered the phone in front of Mu Xiao.

"Miss Qingshuang."

"Are you free this afternoon?"

Upon hearing Ruan Yuebai's voice, Lu Qingshuang asked briskly, "I ordered two overcoats, and I'm going to see the progress today, do you want to accompany me?"

Hearing that Lu Qingshuang invited her to go shopping together, Ruan Yuebai glanced at Mu Xiao, then nodded immediately, "Of course I'm free!"

"In that case, I'll pick you up in the past, and I'll be there in about 15 minutes."

After hanging up the phone, Ruan Yuebai glanced at Mu Xiao, parted her lips, and finally swallowed back what she wanted to say, then turned and went upstairs to change clothes.

The restaurant fell silent again, and Xiao Lin brought the lunch silently, but before the plate touched the table, Mu Xiao suddenly stood up and left the restaurant straight away.

Zhong Xu hastily finished his meal in the side hall, and as soon as he stood up, he saw Mu Xiao striding towards the study.

He hurriedly followed, and when he passed by the door of the restaurant, he happened to see Xiao Lin bringing out a completely untouched meal.

Seeing Zhong Xu, Xiao Lin immediately stopped him in a low voice: "Secretary Zhong, it seems that Master and Madam have had a quarrel again."

"Arguing again?"

Unexpectedly, the two finally met at noon, and they quarreled again after a few words, Zhong Xu frowned slightly.

"Secretary Zhong, although we shouldn't ask about my master's affairs, my wife is different. My wife has been really sad these two days. If it's convenient for you, please persuade me."

Zhong Xu nodded upon hearing this.

Although he and Shi Zhengqing had talked about it in private, Mu Xiao's attitude was very firm, and Ruan Yuebai didn't notice any problem, so they kept it a secret until now.

But now that Ruan Yuebai has already guessed that his illness is man-made, if she continues to hide it like this, it is inevitable that she will think too much.

Gently knocked on the door of the study, and heard the sound of the door lock being opened, Zhong Xu pushed the door and walked in.

"Master, the documents that need to be processed this afternoon have been sent to your mailbox."

Mu Xiao sat behind the desk, looking at the computer screen in front of him with indifferent eyes.

The white fluorescence made his face a little pale. Zhong Xu took a deep breath anxiously, and then took out a document from his briefcase.

"The Lu family's investigation results have come out."

Hearing this, Mu Xiao raised his head and glanced at him casually, and Zhong Xu immediately handed over the document.

"The air, food, and water samples were all tested, and no decaying substances related to CM-3 were found."

While looking at the document, Mu Xiao listened to Zhong Xu briefly describe the content of the document.

"Miss Qian Si had a private contact with Lu Zhiying before, although I don't know the specific content of the contact, but according to her behavior of paying attention to you that day, she followed you to the lounge with premeditation.

In addition, Madam seemed to be uncomfortable with her shoes, so she went to the bedroom on the top floor with Miss Lu Liu, and had no contact with other people during the period. "

Listening to Zhong Xu's report, Mu Xiao gently stroked the corner of the table with his fingers.
