The Duke's little ancestor slipped away again

The first reaction after a hangover is to wake up with a headache. Probably no one can escape it, including Shen Ye.

"...Uh...you really can't drink too much of this..."

"I've known you for so long, and this is the first time I've seen you drunk."

Mu Jinqian, with slightly messy hair and wrinkled suit, sat up from the stool at the end of the bed.

"This is the first time I've seen Mr. Mu like this."

Shen Ye nodded in surprise.

"That's such an honor, you gave me your first time."

Mu Jinqian's words were a bit ambiguous, but who was Shen Ye? The words of a second-level lawyer are not just words.

"I gave my first time to many people, and Mr. Mu is probably just one of them, so I can't be so happy."

"Ye Ye, do we have to talk like this between us?"

"I'm sure it was you, Jinqian, who started it."

Shen Ye wasn't pretentious, it was just a title. Besides, he hadn't appeared in court for many years, hadn't he?

"Okay, I said it first, I apologize."

"Why are you here?"

"I saw you were so awake just now. I thought you wouldn't ask?"

Mu Jinqian touched his nose habitually.

"I think I'm very civilized when I'm drunk. Why are you so embarrassed?"

"How are you?"

"Touch your nose. You had this habit when you were in school. You touch your nose when you don't know how to speak."

"It turns out you started paying attention to me when you were in college."

"Yes, many girls liked you at that time, including me, of course."

All day yesterday, Mu Mu had made it so obvious. She was not a child. How could she not see her purpose? She simply made everything clear to avoid embarrassment when they meet later.

"But you never said..."

"Brother, I'm a girl, okay, I don't want to lose face."

"Then why did you help other people give me gifts?"

"Then you didn't realize that among other people's gifts, I also had a share?"

"I... gave away all the gifts."

Mu Jinqian pinched his brow in annoyance. If he had known that her share was in the gift, he would never have given it away without changing hands.

"I know, so I took it away before the gift was given."

At that time, Shen Ye went to Mu Jinqian with a bunch of gifts, but she regretted it when she was about to send them out. The reason she gave herself was that "the packaging was not unique enough", but in fact she was timid.

"But when you graduated, you rejected Mu's offer."

"It was popular at that time that beauty came from distance. Rather than being an inconspicuous member of the legal team at Mu's Law Firm, I wanted to be myself."

"you did it······"

But I ruined it with my own hands...

"Later, I lost a bet with Mu Mu and changed my career to become a manager. It was not bad. I didn't have to live as rigorously as a lawyer, and my income was very good."

Chen Ye stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the slowly rising sunlight.

"sorry."

Mu Jinqian pulled the person into his arms from behind, and Shen Ye stiffened.

"There's nothing to be sorry for. Time can heal, doesn't it?"

"Then you...were you cured?"

"Ha... The part that time has not healed has now been healed by your hug, so... Jinqian, let's all start a new life."

Chen Ye spread his arms around himself and turned to look at the man behind him seriously.

Mu Jinqian didn't know how he left Splendid Garden in the end, his heart... seemed to have lost a corner, and he couldn't find it no matter how hard he looked...

"Mumu, is your brother... broken in love?"

Mu's mother pulled Mu Mu aside and asked in a low voice.

"It doesn't count. After all, it hasn't even started yet."

"It's such a shame that two children have just been missed."

"Don't worry, otherwise dad will go to the trouble of us again. Don't worry, I'll go up and ask later."

In the bedroom, Mu Jinqian sat on the sofa chair and stared at the photos in his hands in a daze.

"elder brother."

"Mumu."

"Did the conversation not go well?"

"No, a lot of things have been discussed, but...she doesn't seem to like me anymore..."

Mu Jinqian's smile was a little bitter.

"According to Ye Ye's character, even if I knew you had no choice at the time, you wouldn't forgive so easily."

"...What's the alternative?"

"...After winning the lawsuit, your photos were circulated widely. She thought you would confess your love to her after the matter was over."

"After that, didn't mom fall down and be hospitalized?"

"So, she thinks you don't like her... You haven't told her about her mother being hospitalized, right?"

Mu Mu felt that he suddenly grasped the key point.

"I·····"

"She was hit hard by that incident. She thought you would accompany her, but not only did you not confess your feelings, you also didn't show up for several days. If it were me, I would have given up. After all, who would How about guarding a fruitless love?"

"I'm going to find her now..."

"You went to find her like this? You're so dirty."

Mu Mu grabbed Mu Jinqian who was about to rush out.

"Yes, yes, I have to clean up. I can't let her see my sloppy look again."

"I wish you success."

"My sister is the best. Tell me, what reward do you want?"

"It would be great if you marry someone as soon as possible and give me a sister-in-law."

"Then I'll try my best to do it as quickly as possible."

Mu Jinqian took a shower, changed clothes, and went out in high spirits. However, when he appeared in front of Shen Ye again, there was an equally tall and handsome man standing next to Shen Ye, and the two of them were talking. laugh······

Finally, all the work on hand was finished, and the pointer on the watch successfully pointed to 3 o'clock in the morning.

"Asim, pack up and leave in ten minutes."

"Good boss."

The airport in the early morning was particularly lively because it was close to the New Year's Eve. There were young people in groups and couples in pairs. They were either talking quietly or cuddling with each other intimately.

Vaughan in the VIP room looked at the time, 3:45, thirteen hours later, around 8 pm Pingcheng time, he would be able to see his little girl, which was great.

Tomorrow is New Year's Day. Mu Mu looked at the names in the address book and lowered his raised fingers again.

"in argument?"

It has to be said that Mu Ruomu, the best friend of a daughter, could tell at a glance that her daughter was absent-minded.

"No, it's just that he doesn't care about his body. He looks a little distressed, but he can't do much to help."

"His position and his status will naturally make it harder than others. Since you have chosen to be together, you should be considerate of each other, instead of like this."

"...Mom, I'm going to make a call and I'll be with you later."

"Go, I'll have your father with me."

"The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable, please call again later, sorry..."

Vaughn's call was different. Mu Mu played Asim's call again and got the same cold voice from the robot.

"I can't get through at all? Is something wrong?"

After thinking about it carefully, Mu Mu picked up the coat on the sofa and ran out.

"Mumu, it's getting dark, where are you going?"

"Go out and be back soon!"

Mu Mu, who had just run out, saw a familiar black Rolls-Royce business car appear in his sight before he could drive.

"It's so late, where are you going?"
