Falling tonight

Mu Xianshan sighed, "Tell me about you. You said you couldn't do this back then, but that person..."

"Okay," Qin Qin interrupted Mu Xianshan when he mentioned old things.

She didn't look good either, and she still felt guilty for Mu Zhou.

"It has already happened. There is no need to mention it again after fifteen years. Otherwise, the Mu family doesn't know what twists and turns they will go through, and all our hard work will be in vain. This matter... Let's cover it up as before. .”

Mu Xianshan wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything and could only sigh again.

Zhao Rou had just finished eating bird's nest porridge when she heard a sound on the door. She turned around and saw Mu Zhou walking towards her, her expression unclear.

"Have you finished talking to your father?"

"Well, we're done talking."

Mu Zhou leaned over and hugged her, placing his arms across her chest. He smelled the familiar bath fragrance on her body and relaxed a little.

"what happened?"

Zhao Rou noticed something was wrong with him, and stroked her fingers on the thick black hair on the man's head at the base of his shoulders, and followed it along.

"There may be something hidden about what happened back then, but my father didn't want to tell me."

Muzhou recalled the scene in the study just now.

There is obviously something wrong with Mu Xianshan and Qin Qin.

What other secrets did they have that he didn't know about?

What was that secret that they would rather hide from him than let him know the truth?

"what?"

Zhao Rou was surprised, "You are the victim and he is your father. Is there anything hidden that I cannot let you know?"

Mu Zhou shook his head and laughed sarcastically, "If he doesn't tell me, I can still force him to do it. I'll check it out myself."

Zhao Rou did not miss the almost undetectable disappointment on his face. She reached out and held his slender fingertips. She didn't know what to say for a moment. From her position, she was not qualified to express any opinions on Mu Zhou's parents.

The two hugged each other for a while, then Mu Zhou lowered his head and kissed Zhao Rou on the lips, "Let's go, today is the day for us to receive the certificate, we will talk about this later."

When we drove to Zhao's house, it was already noon.

When the Zhao family servant told Zhao Shijin and Zhou Yun, they couldn't believe it for a moment.

"Xiaorou? Why are you back?"

Zhao Shijin stood in front of the carved door, looking at his daughter whom he hadn't seen for some time. His lips moved. He wanted to say something but didn't say it. He looked at Mu Zhou again, with a smile on his face, "Mu Zhou is here too. .”

Mu Zhou nodded, "Uncle Zhao, Aunt Zhou."

Zhou Yun, standing beside Zhao Shijin, glanced at them with a complicated expression, then turned to look at Zhao Fangyi behind them.

The first time Zhao Fangyi saw Mu Zhou, her eyes flashed, and she couldn't hide her excitement. The next second she caught sight of the slender Zhao Rou standing next to him, her face flashed with hatred, and she turned her head and entered the house.

Zhao Rou looked very calm, distant and polite, "Dad, I'll come home to get the household registration book."

After not seeing Zhao Shijin for a long time, when Zhao Rou saw him for the first time, she couldn't help but think of the truth she just learned a few days ago, and couldn't even smile at Zhao Shijin.

After lying to her for fifteen years, what was her father's heart made of?

"What do you want the household registration book for?" Seeing the two of them standing still, Zhao Shijin shouted quickly, "Go inside and sit down, Mu Zhou hasn't been here for a long time." Zhou Yun squeezed out a smile, "Yes, Xiaorou too It’s been a long time since I’ve been back, it’s cold outside, let’s get inside quickly.”

Zhao Rou didn't want to have too many negotiations with them and refused coldly, "No, Dad, I'm in a hurry. Now I have to get my household registration book to get my marriage certificate."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Shijin and Zhou Yun were shocked.

"You, you want to get a certificate?"

Zhou Yun stuttered when speaking.

"Yes," Mu Zhou responded before Zhao Rou could do it, and nodded politely to Zhao Shijin and his wife, "Uncle Zhao, Aunt Zhou, I will visit you another day. Please take out Xiaorou's household registration book."

Zhou Yun was stunned.

Zhao Shijin took a few seconds to react and smiled happily, "Okay, okay, it's a good thing that you are getting married. When will the wedding be held?"

Zhao Rou raised her delicate eyebrows. She had not thought about the wedding yet. In her opinion, this process was dispensable.

Unexpectedly, Mu Zhou said calmly from the side, "Uncle Zhao, Xiaorou is still pregnant. We will make up for it after the baby is born. Don't worry."

Zhao Rou narrowed her eyes, why hadn't she heard him talk about the wedding?

"She's pregnant, that's great." Zhao Shijin was even more happy and glanced at her abdomen, "Wait a minute, I'll get it now."

Zhao Shijin turned around and went back into the room. Zhou Yun felt embarrassed after standing alone for a while, so she turned around and went in.

Zhao Rou hooked the fingers of the people around her and asked with a smile, "Are you going to have a wedding? I, the client, don't even know."

Mu Zhou lowered his head and looked at her lovingly, "They say girls are looking forward to weddings, but since you are pregnant, I don't want you to be too tired. I will hold the wedding after you have given birth, okay?"

Zhao Rou pretended to be thinking, "Let me think about it."

The flesh on his slender waist was gently rubbed, and Mu Zhou's tone was filled with dissatisfaction, "What are you thinking about? I have to get a marriage certificate. If you don't want to have a wedding, don't you want to give me an explanation?"

To outsiders, their whispers looked like flirting between lovers. The handsome man and beautiful woman were very eye-catching, but in the eyes of Zhao Fangyi, who had been secretly watching from behind the door, this scene was truly dazzling.

Zhao Fangyi gritted her teeth and held the door tightly with one hand. A fire of jealousy and resentment burned in her heart, and her fingertips dug a nail mark on the door.

"Fang Yi, don't be like this." Zhou Yun saw that her daughter was in a bad state and quickly grabbed her hand and moved it away from the door.

"Mom, look at Zhao Rou, she looks like a villain who has succeeded. Why, why did she take my man away without paying any price! I won't accept it!"

Zhou Yun comforted, "Fang Yi, they are getting married. Just look away. We can't afford to offend the Mu family."

Zhao Fangyi shed tears, her whole face twisted, and she looked horrifying, "Mom, why do you even speak for them? It was obviously me who was with Brother Mu first, and it was me who wanted to marry Brother Mu. You Have you forgotten? If Zhao Rou hadn’t come back, I would already be Brother Mu’s wife!”

Zhou Yun shook her head and sighed, "Fang Yi, it's all over. He will be your brother-in-law soon. Stop thinking about Mu Zhou. There are so many young masters in Yashi, how about I look for a few more for you..."

"I don't want it! No one can compare to Brother Mu!" Zhao Fangyi roared, and suddenly, a painting flashed in her mind, "By the way, those paintings! I want to show Zhao Rou's paintings to Brother Mu, he I haven’t seen it yet. If he knew that Zhao Rou was in love with someone else, would he still marry her? I’m going to show it to Brother Mu now.”

Zhao Fangyi wiped away tears, as if she had found hope, and ran up the stairs quickly to the room where Zhao Rou lived.

When Zhao Rou left Zhao's house, she once pried open her drawer, and there were still Zhao Rou's paintings of boys' backs lying inside. (End of chapter)
