"what?"
"Close your eyes."
Mu Ning closed it obediently.
Gu Zhiyin opened the door to the room and led her in.
"You can open it now."
Mu Ning slowly opened his eyes. The room was dark, but small shiny things were flying in the air.
Is it...a firefly?
She smelled the lily of the valley.
"Gu Zhiyin?" Mu Ning asked in surprise, "Why is it so dark here? Are you here to show me the fireflies?"
The man behind him didn't answer. He pressed it somewhere, and with a "beep" sound, all the shading cloths around him were raised.
The entire room turned into a glass sunroom!
The room is filled with her photos, and the ground is filled with lilies of the valley and her favorite baby's breath.
In the middle of the flowers, there is a human statue.
"This...isn't this me?" Mu Ning's eyes widened in surprise, and she reacted suddenly, pointing at her statue, "Gu Zhiyin, couldn't you have done this?"
"Before you came back, this place was a beautiful illusion in my dream. Only when I stepped here did I feel alive."
"Don't you think I have nothing to do every day? I just find something to do for myself."
He had never studied sculpture, and nothing looked like him at first, and everything he did well was smashed. In this way, day after day, he did better and better, and he became more and more similar to Mu Ning.
I originally wanted to finish this statue and end my life here.
Unexpectedly, Ning Ning came back to save him.
Mu Ning's eyes were hot, "Gu Zhiyin, why do you always surprise me?"
She sniffed, "Just love me if you love me. Why do you always make me so sad?"
Gu Zhiyin hugged her from behind, "Because I thought you didn't want me anymore."
After saying that, he rubbed her into his arms vigorously.
Mu Ning said no more, because at this moment, she felt the suffocating affection of this man.
…
That afternoon, they packed up the small bungalow, locked the door, and set off back to the capital.
This is their hometown. Whenever they want to relax and unwind, they can come back and stay with Xiao Yanxi for a while.
They had only been separated for a day, and Gu Zhiyin already missed her son.
Mu Ning couldn't help but complain about him, "After all, I gave birth to him in ten months of pregnancy. How come you, a grown man, are more attached to your son than me?"
"How long have you been with him? How many days have I been with him?"
He always had a reason, Mu Ning didn't bother to argue with him.
They brought Aunt He and the big white cat to the villa in the capital.
In the evening, Mu Ning sat on the swing and looked at the large and small children playing with the cats in the yard. Aunt He came out with fruits for them to eat.
There is a feeling of reunion after a long separation.
The things she had lost were coming back one by one, as if God had made up for her.
Everything in her life was perfect.
Mu Ning raised his head and looked at the birds flying away under the sunset, showing a faint smile.
Weiyuan, Zhang Ma, Xiaomi... I hope you are well in another world.
…
Three days after returning to the capital, Luther called Mu Ning.
"Nicole, are you being unreasonable? You took Simo away from me and took him to live a sweet and happy life with Gu Zhiyin. I was here alone to deal with your mess. I was so tired that I didn't sleep for days and nights. ."
Mu Ning and Gu Zhiyin had not divorced, so the divorce agreement was invalidated, and the matter of her fake marriage to Luther had already been revealed to the two major families.
Now that Mu Ning and Luther have established a foothold in their respective families and have their own power, the family elders do not dare to do anything to them.
Therefore, when this incident broke out, although the old guys were furious, Mu Ning was already in the country, and they could only vent their anger on Luther.
Luther avoided seeing them and complained to Mu Ning on the phone.
Mu Ning listened and gloated, "It's really hard on you, Mr. Luther. You are born to be an excellent leader, and you shoulder the mission of the family..."
Mu Ning flattered her before getting down to business, "After I leave, I will leave it to you to take care of the family affairs."
The Austin family has merged with the William family and been unified under Luther's management.
Why couldn't Luther see what she was thinking, "Nicole, I've helped you so much, should you give me some benefits?"
"What benefit do you want?"
"Let me be Simo's daddy?"
"ah?"
Luther coughed, "I mean, although I am not Simo's biological father, I can be his second father. Simo calls Gu Zhiyin's father, and he calls me father. Isn't it easy to distinguish? There are two Simo will be happier if his father loves him together."
Mu Ning thought for a while and said, "What you said makes sense, but I'm afraid Gu Zhiyin won't agree."
Gu Zhiyin was a stingy man. Luther had occupied his wife and children for two years and wanted to steal his son. There was no way he would agree.
"Anyway, I watched Simo be born. I have loved him as my own child. Now you have taken him away from me and you are gone, and I am alone again." Luther said in a sad tone.
From Luther's perspective, it is indeed quite pitiful.
After hanging up the phone, Mu Ning discussed with Gu Zhiyin, "Let Luther be Yanyan's godfather. He was very helpful to our mother and father..."
"There's no door!"
Before he finished speaking, Gu Zhiyin decisively interrupted, "This matter is not negotiable!"
Mu Ning sighed. Gu Zhiyin's resentment and defensiveness towards Luther were far more than she imagined.
But when it came to Luther, Mu Ning asked Gu Zhiyin, "Husband, do you still remember what you promised me? My promise has been fulfilled, when will you fulfill your promise?"
Mu Ning urged Gu Zhiyin to go to the hospital to have her hand checked, but he kept delaying her.
"Anyway, it has been useless for such a long time, so there is no rush for these two days."
Mu Ning saw that he didn't take it to heart at all, "Gu Zhiyin, are you deceiving me?"
Gu Zhiyin held her in his arms and said, "Ning Ning, you may not be able to get a good result if you go to the hospital, why bother to suffer another blow?"
"Then ask Luther to show you."
Gu Zhiyin immediately darkened his face and warned her, "You have mentioned his name several times today."
Normally when Gu Zhiyin showed such a dangerous look, Mu Ning would stop talking and not stand up to him.
She has her own way to cure him.
…
At noon the next day, Gu Zhiyin changed clothes and came downstairs to take her son to the Science and Technology Museum.
When I turned around, I found an uninvited guest at home.
Luther was sitting on the sofa at his house, holding his son!
Xiao Yan was so happy to see Luther that she subconsciously opened her mouth and called "Daddy".
Gu Zhiyin heard this, walked over with a gloomy face, and picked up Xiao Yanxi from Luther's arms with one hand.
"This is my home, what are you doing here?"
Luther looked up and saw Gu Zhiyin, chuckled, and said matter-of-factly, "Of course I came to see me..."
Gu Zhiyin didn't give him a chance to speak and scolded the servant coldly, "Who let this foreign dog in?"
"I."
Mu Ning walked out and said, "Gu Zhiyin, please be careful and don't speak so harshly in front of the child."
When Gu Zhiyin saw that Mu Ning was still speaking for Luther, his face became even darker and he asked someone to drive Luther out.
"Gu Zhiyin, he came all the way here, he is a guest after all!"
Mu Ning chased out, but accidentally slipped and fell in the yard.
"Mommy!"
"Ning Ning!"
"Nicole!"
"lady!"
Urgent cries sounded at the same time.
Several figures ran towards her quickly.
Mu Ning was lying on the ground, his face pale, "Hurry, take me to the hospital quickly..."
