C227 The Relationship That Had Just Been Eased Became Tense Again
She stared blankly at the glittering words' Shengxiang Group 'on the top of the door. She thought of five years ago. It was the same door, the same words, but it was in B City.
Thinking of B City, Ning Qianyu felt a little bitter in her heart. She took a deep breath, shook off the messy thoughts in her mind, and then walked towards the door of Shengxiang Group.
After entering the hall, Ning Qianyu remembered to call Mu Shengchen, but she did not expect Mu Shengchen's phone to be blocked.
She frowned and had to go to the front desk in the end.
The receptionist asked politely, "Hello, can I help you?"
Ning Qianyu hesitated slightly and said, "Well... I am looking for you director."
"Looking for director?" The receptionist looked at Ning Qianyu and asked, "Do you have an appointment?"
She could only have an oral appointment with Mu Shengchen, but could that be counted as an appointment? Ning Qianyu shook her head, "No."
The receptionist retracted her gaze and said in disdain, "Miss, our Shengxiang Group is not a market. It is not something you can see just because you want to see director."
The current Ning Qianyu was no longer the Ning Qianyu of the past. She knew what the receptionist meant by her tone.
She held the phone in her hand for a long time before she remembered that there seemed to be a record of Ye Xi's call on her phone.
After searching for a long time, she found Ye Xi's number and dialed it.
"Ye Xi, can I trouble you to send the little darling downstairs? I'll wait in the hall."
After saying that, Ning Qianyu hung up the phone and walked to the door of the hall to wait for Ye Xi to send the little darling down.
After Ye Xi received Ning Qianyu's call, he hurriedly ran into Mu Shengchen's office to relay Ning Qianyu's words.
At this moment, Mu Shengchen realized that his phone was out of battery.
He frowned and asked Ye Xi to send him and the little darling downstairs.
The moment Mu Shengchen came out of the elevator, he fixed his gaze on Ning Qianyu, who was standing at the door.
Although there were many people in the hall, Ning Qianyu was always unique. She would always attract Mu Shengchen's attention at first glance.
Seeing Mu Shengchen and Ye Xi come out of the elevator, the people in the hall greeted them in unison, "Hello, director! Hello, Vice President!"
The little darling in Mu Shengchen's arms saw Ning Qianyu standing at the door and called happily, "mommy."
Mu Shengchen put her on the ground and she immediately ran towards Ning Qianyu.
Just as the little darling called Ning Qianyu, the latter also saw the little darling.
She walked towards the little darling with a smile and then squatted down to carry the little darling into her arms. Ye Xi pushed Mu Shengchen over. The family of three was so harmonious and beautiful together.
A lot of people started whispering about the identity of Ning Qianyu and the little darling. Some people said that it was director's wife and child. Some also said that they were director's relatives. For a moment, many people guessed.
As for the receptionist who looked down on Ning Qianyu, her face turned green and white. No matter who Ning Qianyu was, just director and the vice president personally came down to welcome her. This meant that Ning Qianyu was not someone she could afford to offend.
She regretted it very much, but there was no medicine for regret in this world.
Ning Qianyu raised her head and coincidentally met Mu Shengchen's gaze. She was stunned and said, "I called you but did not call."
"Yes, there is no electricity." Mu Shengchen seemed to realize that he had been staring at Ning Qianyu for too long. He turned his eyes away.
"Thank you for helping to bring the little darling today." Ning Qianyu politely thanked Mu Shengchen.
There was nothing else between them other than courtesy.
Mu Shengchen's eyes darkened. "You're welcome."
After a moment of silence, Ning Qianyu picked up the little darling and smiled at Mu Shengchen. "Then I'll go back with the little darling first."
Mu Shengchen pursed his lips and nodded. "Okay.
Ning Qianyu smiled at the little darling and said, "Little darling, quickly say goodbye to uncle."
The little darling waved at Mu Shengchen. "Goodbye, Uncle Mu."
"Goodbye, little darling!" Goodbye, Qianyu! Mu Shengchen thought to himself.
After getting into the car, Ning Qianyu asked the little darling, "Little darling, are your clothes dirty?"
"Ah?" The smile on the little darling's face instantly fell. How did mommy know? "mommy, I'm sorry."
"How did you get it dirty?" Ning Qianyu rolled her eyes. The two of them were really funny. Did they think that she would not be able to recognize them just because they had bought the exact same clothes?
After all, she had picked all the clothes herself.
"Eat the cake." The little darling stuck out his tongue.
"Oh?" Ning Qianyu tilted her head and looked at the little darling. In the end, she did not say anything.
She said that the little darling should not eat cake? Or should Mu Shengchen not bring the little darling to eat cake?
She shook her head and opened the little darling's backpack. What entered her eyes was a precious long life lock.
Ning Qianyu picked up the long life lock and asked sternly, "Little darling, where did this thing come from?"
The little darling was frightened by Ning Qianyu's appearance and started to cry, "My grandmother gave it to me."
Great-grandmother? Who? Old Madam Mu!
Mu Shengchen actually brought the little darling to see Old Madam Mu. What exactly was he thinking?
Ning Qianyu's expression instantly darkened. Without thinking, she found Ye Xi's phone and dialed.
0
Today, Mu Shengchen was very happy and disappointed.
Because through today, the relationship between him and Ning Qianyu had eased up a lot. Of course, it was only as a friend that the relationship had eased up a lot.
However, for Mu Shengchen. As long as Ning Qianyu could accept him, he was willing to be her friend.
As long as she could treat him as a friend, she was not a stranger. He is willing to pretend that he does not like her, he is willing to not pester her... he promises to withdraw everything to the bottom line of a friend.
Although this was an endless pain to him, it was much better than living like a zombie...
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Xi knocked on the door.
"Young Master Chen, Young Mistress called for you."
Mu Shengchen thought he was hallucinating.
He opened his eyes wide and was silent for a few seconds. He immediately said, "Come in."
The office door was opened with a click. Ye Xi handed the phone to Mu Shengchen with a flattering look.
"Hello?" Mu Shengchen said excitedly. He realized that his reaction seemed to be too much. He took a deep breath and said calmly, "Is something the matter?"
Ning Qianyu, who was on the other end of the phone, did not speak for a long time.
Through the phone, Mu Shengchen could not see Ning Qianyu's expression clearly, but he could keenly feel that the atmosphere was not right.
The last trace of hope in his heart disappeared in an instant. He asked lightly, "Why did you call me..."
Before Mu Shengchen could finish his words, Ning Qianyu opened her mouth, "Did you bring little baby to see Old Madam Mu?"
