Shen Muzhi went downstairs, glanced at the two servants carrying shopping bags, and said with a light smile: "It seems that you are in a good mood?"

"Sophia wants to buy some souvenirs and go back to France, and Sisi and I will just accompany her for a casual stroll."

Li Ning said, walked directly to the sofa, sat down and sighed comfortably.

Shen Muzhi also sat next to Li Ning, and when he saw her take off her high heels and rub her ankles, he ordered the maid, "Bring a pair of slippers." ”

"You've been away from home for the past two days, but you've all known the rumors on the Internet, right?" Li Ning changed his slippers and asked Shen Muzhi.

"Hmm." Shen Muzhi replied with a shallow chin.

Li Ning sat up slightly straighter, and explained to Shen Muzhi quite seriously.

"The first time I met Sun Muze was to inquire about Wang Lulu, and the second time was because he introduced me to Dr. Leung Chun Yan, and Dr. Leung also had dinner with us that day, but he made an appointment to go first. As for the seemingly ambiguous actions in the photos, they were all taken by borrowing, and Sun Muze and I were just ordinary friends. ”

Shen Muzhi didn't interrupt her words, and he didn't react when he listened, but when Li Ning's words fell, he replied with a shallow bow: "I know." ”

Seeing Shen Muzhi's expression, Li Ning was noncommittal to her words, and didn't even want to ask more.

"You... I'm not going to ask anything? Li Ning asked tentatively.

"You don't need to explain rumors that come out of nowhere. As for the rest, there's not much to ask. Shen Muzhi said disapprerovingly.

Li Ning didn't expect him to have such a calm attitude. After all, the rumor was spread everywhere, and the most embarrassing person was not Li Ning, but Shen Muzhi.

Therefore, Li Ning has also thought about whether Shen Muzhi will be angry, whether he will question her, or have some other bad but reasonable reactions.

"Okay." Li Ning nodded, not knowing what to say for a while. But in his selfish heart, he felt a little heartwarming for Shen Muzhi's trust.

Shen Muzhi looked at his phone, and suddenly raised his eyes and said to Li Ning: "Tomorrow Mu Xing has made an appointment with Sun Muze, and the four of us will have dinner together." ”

Li Ning was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and asked puzzledly, "Why?" ”

"In order to talk about cooperation, but also to dispel rumors." Shen Muzhi replied simply.

Li Ning stared at it for a moment, then understood Shen Muzhi's intentions, and immediately agreed, "Okay, listen to you." ”

Since Shen Muzhi didn't mind the rumors, Li Ning didn't think much about it, and asked him tentatively: "I couldn't get through to call you before, but then Dr. Su answered it." ”

Shen Muzhi bowed," he said. ”

Hearing his answer so brief, Li Ning frowned, and asked tentatively: "I heard Uncle Zheng say that you went on a business trip, why are you with Dr. Su?" ”

Originally, Shen Muzhi was checking his mobile phone email, and when he heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at Li Ning, his eyes were faint and there was no wave, but Li Ning was nervous in his heart, and felt that the intention of her words was seen through by Shen Muzhi at a glance.

Li Ning subconsciously looked away, and said perfunctorily with an excuse: "That... I'm just curious and ask. I thought I hadn't seen Dr. Su for a long time, so I could invite him to my home for a light meal or something another day. ”

"Okay, I'll tell him when I'm free." Shen Muzhi bowed his head lightly, and at the same time his gaze fell back on his mobile phone.

Li Ning pressed the corners of his mouth a little depressed, feeling that it was more difficult to get words from Shen Muzhi's mouth than to extract teeth from the tiger's mouth.

Looking at Shen Muzhi in front of him, Li Ning sighed secretly without what he could do.

After thinking about it again, she originally thought that Shen Muzhi was angry or because she was unwell, so she would say goodbye and not answer the phone.

But now that she saw him, not only was she not displeased, but her physical condition also seemed to be very good, and the things she was worried about before had not happened, so there was no need to ask him where he was.

After all, everyone has things they don't want to say, even to their relatives' wives.

What's more, the relationship between the two of them is not the kind of loving couple who talk about everything.

"That's fine, I'll go back to my room and change my clothes first." Li Ning got up as he spoke, and didn't say anything more.

Shen Muzhi bowed his head.

Because he was a little tired, after dinner and taking a shower, Li Ning went to bed early, while Shen Muzhi was still working in the study.

In the second half of the night, Li Ning woke up, but found that the position around him was still empty, and it seemed that no one had moved. I looked at the time again, and it was already past two o'clock in the morning.

Li Ning felt a little strange, and said in her heart, Could it be so late that Shen Muzhi is still working? I got up and put on my coat and went to the study.

The door to the study was closed, and Li Ning knocked lightly outside, then pushed the door inside.

The room was quiet, with only a dimmed floor lamp and no one behind the desk. And Li Ning turned his eyes and saw Shen Muzhi sleeping on the single bed in the study cubicle.

Li Ning saw that Shen Muzhi had a complete pillow and was wearing pajamas, obviously not a temporary rest due to work, but ready to sleep here.

Li Ning frowned, but didn't wake him up, just pulled the quilt for him, and then left the study lightly.

Back in the room, Li Ning sat on the bed for a while, and the various small details of the past few days added up, and he felt that Shen Muzhi was a little strange.

If he was displeased because of something, so he deliberately avoided her, but his attitude was not like it at all, so Li Ning was completely confused.

Thinking about it and having no clue, Li Ningwu pinched his eyebrows, didn't bother to think about it anymore, and fell asleep again in a daze holding the quilt.

In the morning, Li Ning washed up and went downstairs to see Shen Muzhi and Shen Muxing both having breakfast in the restaurant.

"Early." Li Ning entered the restaurant and greeted him.

"Sister-in-law early." Shen Muxing raised his eyes and smiled at Li Ning.

Li Ning sat down and drank a sip of milk, then ate a bite of the omelette, and said to Shen Muzhi as if unintentionally, "I saw you didn't go back to the room to rest last night. ”

"Well, I slept in the study." Shen Muxing flipped through a page of the newspaper and replied in a light tone.

Li Ning hesitated for a few seconds, and still couldn't ask the three words "why".

just glanced at Shen Muzhi again, and then lowered his eyes and ate breakfast.

Shen Muxing sat on the side, feeling that the atmosphere at the moment was a little strange, but after looking at Shen Muzhi and then at Li Ning, he saw that both of them were expressionless, and they couldn't see any joy or anger at all.

"That's... By the way, sister-in-law, the person who took the photo was found. Shen Muxing changed the topic, wanting to ease the current atmosphere.

Li Ning immediately asked, "Who did it?" ”

"It's a paparazzi who specializes in gossiping. Someone paid a high price to buy these photos from him, but the money went to an overseas account, and it changed hands several times, and it will take a little time to track it down. Shen Muxing replied.
