Chapter 55 The Taste of Beautiful Fruit

Mu Yuanchen picked up a peanut, looked at it thoughtfully for a long time, and asked in puzzlement, "How do you know how to cook this dish?"

"It was Assistant Gao who said you liked it."

The voice of the answer was extremely low, because he was not sure whether he was being played by Gao Yujie.

"Oh……"

Nodding meaningfully, his expression returned to his usual calmness.

Shen Jiaman didn't ask if this dish had any special meaning to him, since they couldn't be together, then don't be overly curious.

"Is it too lonely for your grandma to live alone?"

While washing the dishes, Mu Yuanchen came over and asked.

"Then what should I do? She doesn't want to leave here."

"But can she take care of herself?"

"Yes, as long as she doesn't get sick, she is no different from a normal person, and she is very good at reasoning."

"Oh? Did she tell you anything important?"

Shen Jiaman smiled: "Yes, she told me when I was very young: Manman, no matter how difficult you encounter, you must face it bravely with hope, always be grateful and don't complain, remember kindness and Integrity is the greatest wealth God has given to us poor families."

Mu Yuanchen looked at the lonely figure with admiration: "She teaches very well."

The two stayed until the evening before preparing to set off back. On the way, they talked a lot about grandma's past.

"When I graduate, I can often come to accompany her."

Shen Jiaman's unintentional words made Mu Yuanchen aware of an important question, he braked the car, and said very seriously: "Can I apply for a combined master's and doctoral degree?"

There was a moment of astonishment, but only for a moment, she read his mind from his expectant eyes.

"I don't have that much money."

She lowered her head and deliberately avoided his question, not to mention that the economy did not allow it, even if it was allowed, she would not continue to stay in Zurich.

"Can I take care of all your expenses?"

As long as two years, as long as he keeps her by his side for two years, he has the confidence to solve all problems.

"No, I don't have any plans right now."

Her head drooped even lower, and she worked hard and insisted on the principles she should uphold.

"Manman..." Mu Yuanchen was very disappointed, he pressed her shoulder: "Why are you so rational? What should I do with you?"

"I'll tell you a story."

Shen Jiaman raised her head and met his gaze.

"An angel and her companions were flying freely under the shining of the sun. She saw a beautiful vine bearing beautiful fruit. When she went up to pick it, her companions discouraged her from picking it, but she resolutely picked the fruit. , bitter and astringent, her companions all flew away, and in a blink of an eye she lost her wings, could no longer fly, could not feel the comfort of the sun, and all that awaited her was a lonely death. Finally, she understood the taste of the beautiful fruit—— —bitter."

When the story was over, she asked him, "Do you know what this story says?"

He shook his head, not because he didn't know, but because he wanted to hear what she said.

"The moral of this story, don't pick the fruit you shouldn't pick, otherwise, it will become the negative fruit of life."

After a long silence, Mu Yuanchen started the engine: "Let's go."

He is extremely patient, of course, only for Shen Jiaman.

The atmosphere was not very relaxed, but it happened that Xu Ziyao called again.

Shen Jiaman glanced at the man beside him, and resolutely connected: "Hello?"

"Man, are you still mad at me?"

"No."

"Then why didn't you reply when I texted you?"

"Not received."

It's not to say this out of anger, but in fact, she did not receive his so-called text message.

"No way, isn't the signal bad? No wonder, my place is quite remote."

"Oh."

"Are you still in Shanghai? Do you want me to take two days off to go back and be with you?"

"No, I'm going back to Zurich tomorrow."

"Going back so soon?"

"kindness."

"Okay then, be careful on the road."

"understood."

Just about to hang up the phone: "Wait a minute—"

"what happened?"

"I heard... I heard..." Xu Ziyao seemed to have something on his mind, hesitating.

"What did you hear?"

"I heard that you got close to a rich boss, didn't you?"

"What's that?" She frowned.

"I don't mean anything else. I just want to remind you that we are going to get married. When it's time to avoid suspicion, we should avoid suspicion, so as not to be talked about."

"By someone? By whom?" Besides his mother, who else?
"It doesn't matter who, anyway, there is no wind without waves."

Desperately restraining her boiling anger, she gritted her teeth and said, "If you think so, then I can't help it."

Maybe because she heard something wrong with her voice, Xu Ziyao softened his attitude: "Manman, no matter what, I absolutely believe in you unconditionally, but we should love ourselves a little bit."

Oh, it's really ridiculous. If you really believe it unconditionally, you won't feel that she doesn't love herself enough!
"Thank you, but your words are contradictory!"

Shen Jiaman resisted the urge to shed tears, how much she didn't want to quarrel with Xu Ziyao in front of Mu Yuanchen, and how much she wanted Mu Yuanchen to see her happy...

But why is it so difficult.

After hanging up the phone, she turned her gaze out of the window. Sometime later, there was light rain in the sky, just like her mood at the moment.

"Do your parents know that you are going back to Zurich tomorrow?"

Mu Yuanchen asked casually, but didn't mention anything about the phone call just now.

"know."

"Then I'll drive you back to pick up your luggage. Stay in a hotel tonight in case you can't make it tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you."

The gentleman who has never been more grateful to him than now is not because he is considerate, but because he has preserved his proud dignity for her. He knew that she had a bad relationship with her boyfriend, and he didn't take advantage of it to sprinkle salt in her heart. .

At the entrance of the hotel and got out of the car, Gao Yujie walked over with a sad face.

"Mr. Mu, I have something unfortunate to tell you..."

"what's up?"

Mu Yuanchen raised his eyebrows, his expression calm.

Gao Yujie rolled his eyes at Shen Jiaman, lowered his voice and said, "Miss Jiang is here."

Speaking of Cao Cao, when Cao Cao arrived, Jiang Shan came out of the hotel and shouted with a smile: "Chen."
