Falling tonight

Chapter 115

"Mu Zhou, long time no see." Xiao Xinyun's voice was thin and weak, as weak as she was.

She raised her head and looked at the man in front of her affectionately.

His face was as handsome as ever.

Now the facial contour is stronger and deeper, with dark eyebrows, as noble as jade.

More mature and stylish.

Mu Zhou lowered his eyes, and the gaze that fell on Xiao Xinyun was as sharp as a deep pool, making it impossible to figure out what he was thinking.

There was a long silence in the air.

After a long time, he spoke, and his voice seemed to come from deep in his throat, thick and hoarse, "When did you come back?"

Xiao Xinyun smiled lightly and said, "I just arrived today. The first thing I want to do when I come back is to come find you."

Hearing this, Mu Zhou remained silent for another minute.

Zhao Rou sat next to him and watched the two people in front of her.

Although they were so close, she felt like an outsider at the moment, unable to fit into their world.

Xiao Xinyun finished her words and did not wait for Mu Zhou's response.

Her expression remained unchanged, she smiled lightly, raised her hand and placed it naturally on Mu Zhou's knee, "I wanted to see if you were still waiting for me. Just now, I got here and saw 'Blue Blood', Only then did I realize that I didn’t let you down.”

The white and slender hands were covering the black trousers, one black and one white, with a strong color difference.

The picture caused Zhao Rou to feel depressed.

"What do you mean?" Mu Zhou pointed at the square box in Xiao Xinyun's hand and asked with a frown.

Xiao Xinyun took back her hand and opened the square box in her hand.

Inside is the heavy gemstone worn by the model just now - 'Blue Blood'.

Mu Zhou's eyes were locked on the gem that emitted quiet blue light, his thick black eyebrows were furrowed, his lips were slightly open, and he was considering speaking.

"This is what I want..."

"You still remember, right?" Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Xinyun looked a little excited before answering.

A hint of shyness appeared on her fair face, and her eyes were filled with joy. "I knew it the first time I saw it. You haven't forgotten it. I'm really happy. You promised me that you would give me the most unique thing in the world." , the rarest sapphire.”

Mu Zhou was stunned for a second.

Has he said this before?
After hearing this, Zhao Rou understood the situation.

This woman named Xiao Xinyun is indeed inextricably related to the former Mu Zhou.

Zhao Rou moved her eyes towards Mu Zhou. His expression was as stern as usual, but she was sensitive to the fact that his body was tense.

What's the situation now?
The two of them won't soon have a hug scene after a long separation, right?
Then she would be embarrassed...

want to escape.

A cold chuckle came from behind, "Xin Yun, you need to have your eyes treated. Did you see the one next to Mu Zhou? She is Zhao Rou."

Jiang Yinyin crossed her hands on her chest, lowered her head and looked coldly at Xiao Xinyun, who was lying at Mu Zhou's feet looking delicate and frail as a little woman, with a contemptuous smile on her lips.

"By saying such misleading words, do you want Mu Zhou and Zhao Rou to quarrel because of you?"

I don’t know why, but Jiang Yinyin has always been dissatisfied with Xiao Xinyun’s face.
She looks innocent and good-looking, but I just can't like her in my heart.

After so many years of not seeing each other, Xiao Xinyun still looks like a little white flower. The man may feel soft after seeing her, but she can't bear Xiao Xinyun's appearance.

Xiao Xinyun seemed to be shocked by her words, and her face suddenly turned pale.

The hands holding the 'Blue Blood' box were shaking.

She looked next to Mu Zhou, her almond-shaped eyes widened and her face full of astonishment.

"Mu Zhou, is she your girlfriend?"

Xiao Xinyun looked at Zhao Rou, but it was Mu Zhou who asked.

Her expression was full of disbelief and hurt, and a thin layer of mist gathered in her eyes, as if she was about to cry at any moment.Mu Zhou turned his head to meet Zhao Rou's gaze, pursed his lips, and did not respond to Xiao Xinyun.

His deep eyes were like the deep sapphire in the box, quiet and mysterious, but also like the unfathomable sea, calm and surrounded by waves, and Zhao was indulged in it.

He took a long time to answer the question.

Zhao Rou suddenly felt that this moment was like Ling Chi, tormenting and uncomfortable.

At this time, the lounge was extremely quiet.

After a while, Mu Zhou finally turned his head and spoke to Xiao Xinyun in a low and steady voice, "Xinyun, your health is not good, please go back first."

Zhao Rou's heart that had been hanging around suddenly tightened, contracting so sharply that she seemed to feel the slightest bit of pain.

See, he still hasn't acknowledged her status as his "girlfriend".

What are you looking forward to?

Xiao Xinyun glanced at Mu Zhou and Zhao Rou, shook her head, and said in a thin voice with determination, "Mu Zhou, my health has improved a lot. You see, I can't even breathe when I talk now."

"I just want to see you when I get back, so don't drive me away, okay?"

As she spoke, the mist in Xiao Xinyun's apricot eyes was about to drip, and her tone was filled with tiny whimpering, which made people feel distressed just looking at it.

Mu Zhou's breathing became heavier.

He frowned tightly, looked at the box in Xiao Xinyun's hand, moved his lips, but still did not say those words.

Zhao Rou remained silent, and now it seemed that they were going to have an affectionate scene.

Why are you still here? You are a fool if you stay here and don't leave.

Zhao Rou didn't want to be used as a source of conversation after dinner.

Zhao Rou stood up from the sofa, looked straight ahead, and said to Mu Zhou, "You guys talk first, I'll leave first.

"Xiaorou,"

Mu Zhou's deep voice sounded behind her, and her right wrist was pulled, stopping her from moving forward.

Zhao Rou did not look back.

Mu Zhou looked at her thin back, then looked down at the jewelry in Xiao Xinyun's hand.

After what Xiao Xinyun said just now, Zhao Rou would definitely not want this set of jewelry.

How could she know that this was what he had prepared for her from the beginning.

Mu Zhou stood up, gently pulled Zhao Rou back with his hand, and asked quietly, "Where are you going?"

She left without saying a few words. Is she unhappy?
Because the 'blue blood' wasn't given to her?
Zhao Rou was pulled by him and forced to be close to him, her skin touching the fabric of his arm and suit through the thin fabric of the dress.

She lowered her eyes and looked at the part where their bodies were touching.

Just a moment ago, another woman's hand was covering his knee.

Do they also transfer each other's warmth like this?

Zhao Rou suddenly felt disgusted, pushed him away, and looked over calmly, "Li Sijin wants to see me if you have something else to do. I'll come over for a while. Just in time, you can catch up on old times."

After hearing this, Xiao Xinyun stood up slowly from the ground, her eyes falling faintly on Mu Zhou.

It was like looking at a heartless man with sad eyes.

"Don't go."

Mu Zhou was suddenly unhappy and grabbed Zhao Rou's wrist to prevent her from leaving.

Zhao Rou turned around in surprise, and suddenly became a little annoyed. Didn't he deny that they were a couple?

Then in what capacity did he ask her to listen to him.

"Mr. Mu," Zhao Rou opened his fingers one by one, "You asked me to come with you, and I came too. It seems that I don't have anything to do now. You just have old friends to catch up with, so you don't need to worry about me. Are you going to stay?"

She tried to speak in a consultative tone.
