At the end of the dream, Xu Youning felt a tearing pain, like someone holding a knife and splitting her life apart.

"Mu Sijue!"

She called Mu Sijue's name and awoke from her nightmare, a thin layer of sweat on her palms and forehead.

Mu Sijue has always been easy to wake up, and when he heard Xu Youning's voice, he opened his eyes almost immediately and looked at Xu Youning-

Xu Youning gasped, one hand clutching his clothes tightly, like a person who accidentally fell off a cliff grabbing a tree growing near the cliff, his fawn-like eyes were full of horror, and he looked particularly empty.

Mu Sijue opened the lamp at the head of the bed with a "snap" and grabbed Xu Youning's hand: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"......" After a long while, Xu Youning reluctantly sounded, "I had a nightmare......

Mu Sijue frowned: "What did you dream of?" ”

"......" Xu Youning hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head, "I can't remember ...... clearly"

Mu Sijue didn't ask, turned sideways, and hugged Xu Youning into his arms: "It's just a dream, it's okay, sleep." ”

He couldn't help but hoop Xu Youning, his strength was almost barbaric, robbing Xu Youning of his freedom, but it also gave Xu Youning an indescribable sense of security.

Xu Youning did not struggle for the first time, snuggled up to Mu Sijue and closed his eyes, but he did not feel sleepy.

It's not that she can't remember the contents of the nightmare, on the contrary, she remembers it clearly.

She just couldn't say it herself, and let Mu Sijue suffer the same fear as her.

However, listening to the older generation, dreams and reality are often opposites.

In other words, none of the divisions and struggles she dreamed of would happen in reality. As Mu said, it was just a dream, and she could sleep.

comforting himself like this, Xu Youning finally felt a little relieved, and his breathing gradually returned to calm, and after a while, the whole person sank into the dark sweet country.

Black and white replaced, and the next day came quickly.

Xu Youning let herself sleep until she woke up naturally, and when she opened her eyes, the sunlight had already sprinkled on the carpet in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Judging by her experience, it's at least ten o'clock.

Xu Youning turned over, and saw Mu Sijue sitting on the sofa with a slim laptop on his lap, staring at the computer screen, not knowing what he was looking at.

"Shhhh

Xu Youning was so frightened that he gasped.

Hearing this, Mu Sijue raised his eyes lightly and glanced at Xu Youning: "Awake?" ”

Xu Youning grabbed the quilt and covered himself, and looked at Mu Sijue in wonder: "Why are you still at home?" ”

Mu Sijue put down the computer, got up, and walked straight to the bed with long legs: "I'm waiting for you." ”

Xu Youning's eyes lit up, and his voice revealed an unconcealable expectation: "Do you want to take me out?" ”

She's been stuffy at the top of the mountain long enough to want to go out for a walk!

Mu Sijue hooked the corners of his lips and broke Xu Youning's fantasy with four words: "You think too much." ”

"......" Xu Youning restrained his smile in disappointment, lifted the quilt and got out of bed from the other side, and asked angrily, "Then what are you waiting for me for?" ”

"Why did you have a nightmare last night?" Mu Sijue asked suddenly.

Xu Youning was stunned for a moment - Mu Sijue was still at home at this time, just for her to have nightmares?

Emma, the world is starting to be magical again......

Xu Youning turned around and looked at Mu Sijue, pondered for a moment, and still didn't understand: "The reason for the nightmare is hard to say. Everyone has nightmares, and generally there is no complicated reason, and you don't need to pay too much attention to it, anyway, you will be fine when you wake up. Haven't you had nightmares? ”

Mu Sijue's voice was cold, and he said indifferently: "I usually let others have nightmares. ”

"......" Xu Youning seemed to be suddenly stuck in his throat by a fish bone, and his voice became extremely difficult, "Don't worry, I don't have nightmares because of you." Now, I can't remember the contents of the dream, let alone be afraid. ”

Mu Sijue looked at Xu Youning—not only did she show no signs of fear, but she also returned to her usual ease, as if the person who was holding his clothes in a cold sweat last night was not this Xu Youning.

He also stopped talking about nightmares and said, "I'm not coming back tonight." ”

Xu Youning subconsciously asked, "Where are you going?" ”

Mu Sijue looked at Xu Youning, his eyes were as usual, but he didn't speak.

Xu Youning reacted at this time, there are some things that Mu Sijue still can't tell her, and she'd better not know.

She let out an "um", "I see, you can go." ”

"If you're scared at night, you can go to Jian An." Mu Sijue said, "Bo Yan will not come back." ”

Xu Youning's train of thought turned several times, but he still couldn't turn around, and looked at Mu Sijue with a blank face: "...... Why am I afraid? ”

Mu Sijue's expression suddenly became a little unnatural: "No matter why, remember my words." ”

Xu Youning let out an "oh" sound and said casually: "Okay, I remember." ”

At this time, Mu Sijue's mobile phone rang, he didn't answer, hung up the phone directly, and said, "I'm leaving." ”

Xu Youning wanted to continue to maintain an attitude of not caring much, but he unconsciously spit out a sentence on his lips: "Mu Sijue, you...... Stay safe. ”

After all, she was still worried about Mu Sijue.

Mu Sijue glanced at Xu Youning, his outline suddenly softened a little, "um", and told Xu Youning: "Wait for me to come back." ”

Xu Youning nodded bewildermently, and watched Mu Sijue leave the room before entering the bathroom.

She washed up and went downstairs, and saw Aunt Zhou standing in the living room with a frown, looking outside.

"Aunt Zhou," Xu Youning couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" ”

"This Xiao Qi," Aunt Zhou sighed, "I asked him to have breakfast earlier, and he said to wait for you." You finally woke up, but he left in a hurry, and he didn't have time to take a sip of porridge. If you go on like this, your stomach will be bad! ”

"......" Xu Youning suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and comforted Aunt Zhou: "He will eat on the road, don't worry about him." ”

Aunt Zhou nodded, as if she suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Tomorrow is Mu Mu's birthday, right?" ”

"Yes." Xu Youning nodded and said, "Jian An and I plan to help him celebrate." He doesn't know anything yet, though – we want to surprise him. ”

"It's okay for him to leave a happy memory of his last few days here." Aunt Zhou thought for a while, "I'll go shopping for vegetables tomorrow and prepare a little more delicious food." ”

After coming here, Aunt Zhou would personally go to the vegetable market in the city every other day to buy some vegetables or meat.

The old man said that although the organic vegetables served by the club are good, she is still used to picking them herself, cooking them by herself, and doing them herself from beginning to end, so that the dishes taste different.

Xu Youning was accustomed to Aunt Zhou's habits, and nodded: "Let the driver send you down tomorrow." ”

After breakfast, Xu Youning went to find Su Jian'an, and happened to meet Luo Xiaoxi at the door of Su Jian'an's house.

Luo Xiaoxi raised her hand to greet Xu Youning, and opened her mouth to say, "Mrs. Mu!" ”

Xu Youning was stunned, and his tongue was inflexible: "Xiaoxi, you, how are you...... Aware? ”

She only agreed to Mu Sijue's marriage proposal yesterday, and Luo Xiaoxi will call her Mrs. Mu today.

This feeling, a little strange, but more so, is a subtle happiness.

Luo Xiaoxi smiled: "As long as your boss Mu is happy, don't talk about me, he can let the whole world know that you agreed to marry him!" ”

"......" Xu Youning suddenly wondered, when did Mu Sijue become so "high-profile"?

Luo Xiaoxi clasped Xu Youning's hand: "Okay, Mrs. Mu, let's go in." ”

Su Jian'an had just finished feeding the two little guys and drinking milk, and when she saw Xu Youning and Luo Xiaoxi coming in, she smiled: "You guys came just in time." ”

The three of them began to be busy planning Yun Yun and Yue Chuan's wedding, implementing it step by step, and they were busy all day.

After dinner, Su Jian'an said: "Youning, tomorrow you find an excuse to send Mu Mu to Yun Yun, let Yun Yun send him back at night, and we will start to help him celebrate his birthday, Yun Yun has already explained to her, you can lie to Mu Mu." ”

Xu Youning said: "Mu Mu likes Yun Yun very much, let him stay with Yun Yun for a day, he will be very willing, and he doesn't need to make any excuses." ”

"It's better that way." Su Jian'an turned off the computer and said, "Let's do this today, you go back early to rest." ”

After Xu Youning and Luo Xiaoxi left, Su Jian'an and Aunt Liu bathed the two little ones together, changed them into clean new clothes, and fed them milk, and it didn't take long for the two little ones to fall asleep.

Aunt Liu looked at the time: "It's more than eight o'clock, madam, why hasn't Mr. Lu come back yet?" Since marrying Su Jian'an, Lu Boyan has rarely returned home more than seven o'clock.

"He's something, he's not coming back tonight." Su Jian'an said, "Let's rest early." ”

As soon as Su Jian'an's voice fell, the mobile phone rang.

Aunt Liu smiled: "It must be Mr. Lu." ”

Su Jianan walked out with her mobile phone and answered the phone, instead of calling "husband" as soon as she opened her mouth as before, because an unfamiliar number with no notes was displayed on the screen.

She just "Hello? After a while, he didn't say anything more, waiting for the other party to speak.

"Jian An, it's me."

A familiar male voice came from the phone, low and revealing a dangerous but seductive magnetism.

Su Jian'an was stunned, looked at her phone several times, and still felt incredulous: "...... Sijue? ”

Mu Sijue said "um", and his tone was a little hesitant: "Jian An, can you do me a favor." ”

"As long as I can do it, I will help you, what do you need me to do?"

Su Jian'an pinched herself and told herself that this was not a dream, Mu Sijue was really asking her for help!

"I want you, go see Youning."

Speaking of this, Mu Sijue didn't say any more, but Su Jian'an knew his subtext, and then asked with his words: "You don't worry about Youning?" ”

"A little," said Mu Sijue. ”

"Why?" Su Jian'an was a little surprised, "Youning has already agreed to marry you, why are you still not at ease?" ”

Su Jian'an thought that Mu Sijue was still worried that Xu Youning would escape.

She also naively thought that it must be because Mu Sijue was too insecure.

However, Mu Sijue's next words made her suspect that when she got up early this morning, Mu Sijue did not open herself in the right way at all......
