Mr. Lu, the wife was the white moonlight that night

Xia Ling wanted to take this opportunity to spend more time with Mrs. Mu and strike while the iron was hot.

Not long after, Mu Sichen also came.

When she saw Xia Ling sitting next to Mrs. Mu, a look of nervousness was evident on her handsome face.

"Lingling, when did you come here?"

His eyes checked Xia Ling up and down, for fear that something would happen to Mrs. Mu and hurt her.

Mrs. Mu seemed to see Mu Sichen's thoughts, she said dissatisfiedly: "What? I can still eat her?"

Mu Sishen originally wanted to say 'that's possible', but thinking that his mother was angry with him today, he had no choice but to hold back what he wanted to say.

Seeing this, Xia Ling quickly explained: "You misunderstood Auntie, Auntie just chatted with me. Before you came, we chatted very harmoniously."

Mu Sichen looked at her suspiciously, with an expression of disbelief.

But the expression on Xia Ling's face was not at all the aggrieved and forbearing like before, nor was it bitter and bitter, it was obviously relaxed.

Moose breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that what I said to my mother this morning really worked.

But in the afternoon, he went to Haicheng Prison to meet Xia Dongtian, but he didn't get the answer he wanted.

This made him unavoidably a little irritable.

Madam Mu thought that Mu Sichen's distraught appearance was because he wanted to go back to live with Xia Ling.

She couldn't help feeling a little sad, but she didn't want to show weakness in front of the younger generation, so she said nonchalantly: "Okay, okay, you two go back quickly, don't be an eyesore to me."

Mu Si was taken aback for a moment, as if his mother's attitude towards Xia Ling was different now.

Xia Ling was afraid that Mrs. Mu would feel that she had robbed her son, so she offered: "Auntie, let Si Chen stay here with you, and I will go back by myself. In your current situation, he will not go back with confidence."

Mrs. Mu insisted, "Forget it, you don't feel sorry for my son, but I do. He has to go to work tomorrow, so how can I let him stay here all night. I don't have anything to do. There are doctors and nurses here. If you feel uncomfortable, I will ring the bell, don't worry!"

Mu Sichen didn't expect that Mrs. Mu had changed so much.

Although before, he knew that his mother was not so hypocritical, and that her mother had suffered all kinds of hardships.

But because of her hostility towards Xia Ling, her mother always found fault in various ways.

Therefore, it was beyond his expectation that Mrs. Mu offered to let them go back together just now.

Xia Ling was a little hesitant at first. After all, Madam Mu was very scary when she was ill, and she didn't know if she could leave her.

But Mu Sichen has already opened his mouth and said to Mrs. Mu: "Mom, then I will take Xia Ling back first, and I will let the nurse take care of you in the evening. The doctor also said that after another night of observation, you can be discharged from the hospital if there is nothing wrong. Tomorrow , Xia Ling and I will pick you up and leave the hospital."

"Okay, let's go back!" Madam Mu looked at them deeply, both helpless and worried, but the resentment she used to have was much less.

Just like that, Mu Sichen took Xia Ling and left the hospital.

All the way to the car, Xia Ling's face was full of smiles and joy.

Mu Si Shen paid too much attention to the changes in her expression, and was still thinking about Xia Dongtian while driving.

Therefore, his expression was a little serious.

Xia Ling peeked at his expression from the corner of his eye, and said, "Why are you unhappy? Didn't you notice it?"

Mu Sichen said absently, "What did you find?"

"Your mother..." Xia Ling couldn't help smiling, and said, "Your mother doesn't seem to be so resistant to me now. I think she is hard-spoken and soft-hearted now. Soon, I will definitely take her away." down!"

Mu Sichen's eyes fell on her gauze-wrapped hands, he frowned, and said, "Next time something like this happens, you go down and get the chopsticks, and I'll watch over my mother."

As long as he thought of how Xia Ling's hand was bitten like that today, Mu Sichen still felt very distressed.

Xia Ling felt warm in his heart, and suddenly asked thoughtfully: "By the way, are you too tired from work today? It looks like you don't look well."

Mu Sichen knew that Xia Dongtian's matter was a thorn in their hearts, and he didn't want her to get involved too much.

Therefore, he said softly, "It's okay, there are some things at work that are more troublesome."

"Ah That's good."

Xia Ling breathed a sigh of relief, leaned his head on his shoulder, and asked, "Have you noticed that everything is going in a good direction?"

Mu Sichen smiled unnaturally, pretended to be nonchalant, and said, "By the way, let me ask you, which companies or business partners did your father know well when he was doing business before, do you know? Or Yes, does your father have any long-term fixed partners who often go to your house?"

Xia Ling looked at him suspiciously, "Why did you suddenly think of asking this?"

"Oh, it has something to do with your father's case." Mu Sichen pinched her cheek with one hand while driving, and said, "In order to let your father come out earlier, you have eaten and slept well recently, now There is also some flesh growing on my face. I have to take care of your father's case and prepare for the court hearing."

"Really? Does that mean the case will be retried soon?"

Xia Ling's eyes lit up, and her black pupils seemed to be filled with stars. She smiled and said, "Musichen, you are so kind! Don't worry, I will definitely gain ten catties as soon as possible. I measure it every day." weight."

Mu Sichen smiled helplessly and dotingly, and said, "Then you answer my question just now? Do you still want to save your father?"

Xia Ling quickly recalled seriously, "Since I was sensible, my dad didn't seem to let me participate in her business affairs. He usually has entertainment and never takes me with him. The business partners you mentioned, I really don't know."

Mu Sichen thought that perhaps the people behind it might not necessarily have a business relationship with Xia Dongtian.

After all, they did it so covertly, if there was a business relationship, Xia Dongtian should know, and he would be able to find out soon.

Therefore, he asked again: "Does your father have any good friends? Or, do you often come to your house as a guest?"

Xia Ling thought for a long time, afraid that he might have missed something.

But in the end, she just shook her head and said: "I really can't remember. In my impression, no one I know very well has visited our house. Our family has always been just me and my dad. , or take care of my servant."

Mu Sichen was a little disappointed with such an answer, but that was the only way to go.

If you ask more, Xia Ling should be suspicious.

He didn't want to involve Xia Ling in this matter.

For the rest of the journey, they ended the topic.

……

The next day, Mu Sichen got a piece of news.

Guo Mingda's law firm has dismissed all its employees. It is not known whether there is a problem with the operation of the law firm or some other reason.

Mu Sichen had been looking for someone to keep an eye on Guo Mingda, hoping to find any clues.

But now, he couldn't sit still at all.

His intuition told him that Guo Mingda was about to run away.

From what Xia Dongtian said yesterday, it was obvious that Guo Mingda was absolutely inseparable from his father's accident back then.

Mu Sichen speeded up a bit and arrived at Guo Mingda's house all the way.

Unexpectedly, Guo Mingda and his wife had already packed their luggage and were going downstairs with the suitcase.

In the corridor, when they met, Guo Mingda was shocked.

"You...why are you here?"

He looked at Mu Sichen, his eyes hard to hide his panic.

Mu Sichen glanced at the suitcases in their hands, and asked with a half-smile: "Teacher, where are you planning to go with your wife? I heard that the office of your law firm has been registered with an agent and is ready to be rented out? Are you planning to come back?" ?”

Guo Mingda's heart was beating a little violently, and he said to his wife beside him, "Go down and wait for me in the car first. I'll have a few words with Si Chen..."

Mrs. Guo looked at them, hesitated to speak, and went downstairs to wait for her husband.

Seeing his wife walking away, Guo Mingda sighed and said, "Si Chen, if you want to say something, just say it! We still have to catch a plane, so I'm afraid we don't have so much time."

Mu Si looked at him with sharp eyes, and said word by word: "When you were 30 years old, did you really go to the university in San Francisco to study? I sent someone to investigate, and there is no one like you. Why do you fake it? What are you hiding about this work experience?"

Guo Mingda turned pale with shock. He never expected that Mu Sichen would find out what happened so many years ago, and the investigation was so detailed.

He stabilized his mind and said: "Si Chen, I advise you to stop doing these unnecessary struggles. If you ask me, I don't know anything! Since you are so powerful, then you should continue to investigate. Anyway, I am Nothing will be said."

Mu Sichen did not expect that Guo Mingda's words were exactly the same as Xia Dongtian's.

He narrowed his eyes, stared at him motionlessly, and asked, "So, the people behind you are very powerful?"

Guo Mingda sneered, and said: "You don't have to talk to me, neither me nor Xia Dongtian, you won't find any clues from us. In fact, this matter has been in the past for so long, if you continue to investigate like this, yes You have no benefit at all! You might as well just live in such a muddle-headed way!"

In the next second, Mu Sichen grabbed his collar.

Guo Mingda was taken aback. Seeing the murderous look in Mu Sichen's eyes, he said nervously, "Don't forget, I'm your teacher!"

"Are you worthy?"

Mu Sichen gritted his teeth, his slender and tall body trembling slightly.

Over the years, his emotions have always been stable, and his experience in the workplace has long allowed him to be able to hide his emotions and anger.

But now, it is the truth about his father's death that year.

He clearly knew that he had something to do with Guo Mingda, but this person didn't show any remorse, and instead let him live in a daze.

How can he bear this?Mu Sichen tried his best to restrain his urge to punch him, threw him aside, and said, "I tell you, no matter where you go, I will send someone to watch you! Guo Mingda, unless you give me Hide your lies. If I knew, you were responsible for killing my father back then, and you will only be worse than Xia Dongtian!"

He left Guo Mingda's house angrily, leaving behind a single sentence.

After leaving the old campus, a call came from his mobile phone, which was to take care of Mrs. Mu's nurse.

"Mr. Mu, the doctor has already discharged the wife from the hospital just now. You said that you will pick up your wife at ten o'clock in the morning. Now...it's almost noon."

It was only then that Mu Sichen remembered that his mother had been discharged from the hospital.

These two days, his mind was completely occupied by Guo Mingda and Xia Dongtian, so he ignored the family affairs.

Therefore, he hurriedly called Mrs. Mu, hoping that his mother would not be in a hurry and would go there immediately.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Mu said: "You are becoming more and more unreliable now, not as reliable as Xia Ling. If you are busy, go ahead and do it. She has already arrived and is about to pick me up home."

"I'm busy here too." Mu Sishen said: "You are waiting for me in the hospital now, we will eat outside at noon. Anyway, it's been a long time since I had a good meal, and I'll be there in about half an hour. "

……

in the hospital.

Madam Mu hung up the phone helplessly, and said, "Really, what is Si Chen busy with recently? I always feel that he is absent-minded."

Xia Ling peeled an apple for her, and comforted her: "Isn't he always busy at work? Don't worry, since he asked us to wait, let's wait for him."

"It's not a question of being in a hurry. The smell of disinfectant is everywhere in this hospital. What's there to stay for?"

Mrs. Mu felt bored as soon as she was hospitalized. She didn't know how to play with her mobile phone very much, and no one talked.

The nurses always flattered her and couldn't tell the truth, so Mrs. Mu disliked being hospitalized the most.

Xia Ling handed her the peeled apple, and said, "How about this, let's watch TV for a while, Si Chen might come soon!"

Just like that, she turned on the TV and tuned to the TV station in Haicheng.

When she was at home, Xia Ling noticed that Mrs. Mu liked to watch the news programs of the local TV station in Haicheng.

Madam Mu glanced at Xia Ling from the corner of her eye, and her heart gradually softened.

These days, she has seen Xia Ling's kindness, care and warmth.

She secretly thought, if Xia Ling wasn't Xia Dongtian's daughter, how wonderful it would be!

Madam Mu didn't say anything, and ate the apple Xia Ling had just peeled.

At this time, a news came from the TV.

"At 11:30 local time, a major car accident occurred in the southern suburbs of Haicheng. Both of the two people in the car died. It is reported that the identity of the deceased was Guo Mingda, a professor at the Law School of Haicheng University, and the other was his wife. The specific cause of the accident is still under investigation. Follow up report."

Hearing this news, Xia Ling and Mrs. Mu were shocked at the same time.

Madam Mu was because last time Mu Sichen mentioned that this person was related to her husband's death that year, but now he suddenly died in a car accident, is this too coincidental?Could it be that his son did it?

God, this is murder!

And Xia Ling was because of Guo Zhi. At that time, Guo Mingda, as Guo Zhi's father, misunderstood her a lot, although she was very angry.

But now that everything is over, Xia Ling still feels a little bit embarrassed when he suddenly receives such bad news.

The air in the room was inexplicably quiet. Mrs. Mu and Xia Ling were thinking about each other, but neither noticed the slight change in the other's expression.

Because the car accident just happened and there is no more news, this news will be over soon, and other news will pass.

Mrs. Mu was worried for Mu Sichen, wondering if he did it?
