There was grievance in the woman's eyes.

She looked at the meal in front of him and explained, "Mr. Mu, don't get me wrong, I didn't break in on purpose, it was you who ordered me to cook these meals..."

Mu Jingchen glanced at the meal in front of him, and suddenly remembered something.

He is a person who has long lost his sense of taste, and it is rare for him to taste the food made in the kitchen this morning.

This is the first time that other than Huangfu Liyue's meals, other people's cooking suits his taste, allowing him to taste the taste.

So, he instructed the servants, and the chef made dinner and delivered it.

Unexpectedly, these meals were made by this woman.

His eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of danger in his eyes.

"Who allowed you into the kitchen?"

The woman explained softly: "Mr. Mu, I just don't know how to repay you and Uncle Quan, so I did some subordinate work without authorization. I'm sorry, I made you unhappy again."

She looked at him with sincerity on her face, her eyes filled with apology, like a child who did something wrong.

Mu Jingchen frowned slightly, and a word was lightly spit out from his thin and cool lips.

"roll."

Although his volume was low, he carried a timid deterrent.

The woman lowered her head and said again, "I'm sorry."

Then, she turned around and walked out.

Mu Jingchen stared at the meal in front of him and shouted at the door, "Someone."

Lin Ze pushed open the door and entered.

"Mr. Mu."

"Take these meals for testing."

Lin Ze was stunned for a moment as he looked at this table of exquisite food.

"Mr. Mu, do you suspect that she poisoned you?"

Mu Jingchen was expressionless and did not answer his question.

"Have you found what I asked you to check?"

"I found it. Master Quan left country Z a few days ago and went to country E."

Mu Jingchen's eyes wandered, and finally stopped on Lin Ze.

"This woman, did he bring it from country E?"

"Yes, I have also checked the background of this woman. She is from China E, her name is Shao Qinglian, her parents are dead, and she is homeless, which is consistent with what Master Quan said."

Mu Jingchen didn't care about this.

"Why is she so similar to Li Yue?"

Lin Ze thought for a while, then shook his head.

"I don't know. According to the results of my investigation, it should be just a coincidence."

"coincide?"

Mu Jingchen raised his brows.

Is there such a coincidence in the world?

Lin Ze immediately said: "Mr. Mu, if you are worried, I will continue to have people investigate."

Mu Jingchen raised his hand.

"No need to check, just send her away."

He will not leave a hidden danger around, even if there is no problem with her identity.

Lin Ze hesitated for a moment, then said weakly: "Mr. Mu, this is not good, after all, this is a guest brought back by Master Quan, and besides she looks like Madam, she has not done anything wrong..."

As soon as these words came out, Mu Jingchen's eyes like a cold knife shot straight at him.

Lin Ze immediately stopped the words in his mouth and said quickly, "Mr. Mu, I'll do it right away!"

downstairs.

Lin Ze was about to follow Mr. Mu's instructions and rush Shao Qinglian to leave.

Going downstairs, Shao Qinglian was already holding a package and waiting for him in the hall.

"Lin Ze, this is for you."

Lin Ze dazedly took the package in her hand and raised his hand to open it.

When he saw the contents of the package, he was really stunned.

"This……"

Inside the package lay an old pair of shoes.

However, the old shoes have been washed clean, and even the cracked soles have been glued.

Lin Ze recognized at a glance that these were his shoes.

Although he is not short of money, he has no requirements for food and clothing, and he will not pay attention to a pair of leather shoes that are worn out.

The corner of Shao Qinglian's mouth raised a sweet smile.

"Lin Ze, I saw that your soles were dry and cracked, so I took care of it for you without authorization. You won't dislike it, will you?"

Lin Ze's face turned slightly red.

He is a big man, the shoes are dirty or cracked, just throw them away.

Except for his mother who did it for him when he was a child, no one else would help him pay attention to these things.

For a moment, the words he wanted to drive her away got stuck in his throat.

"Why do you want to help me wash my shoes, don't you think it's dirty?"

Shao Qinglian smiled harmlessly, her eyes curved into crescents.

"You don't think I'm stupid, and don't get me wrong, I do this just to thank you for helping me in the morning."

Only then did Lin Ze remember that when she was mopping the floor in the morning, she accidentally slipped and he happened to pass by and gave her a hand.

"You don't have to keep this in mind at all."

"I just don't want to owe favors."

Lin Ze held the shoe in his hand, looked at the sweet smile on her face, and hesitated.

Although Shao Qinglian looked a lot like his wife, he could tell at a glance that they were two people with completely different personalities.

The lady is a little cold, but Shao Qinglian is gentle as water, like a warm sun in winter, making people feel extremely comfortable.

Seeing Lin Ze hesitate to speak, Shao Qinglian blinked her eyes and asked, "Do you have something to tell me?"

Lin Ze glanced upstairs, took a deep breath, and said euphemistically, "There are more men in the Quan family. It's inconvenient for you to live here."

Shao Qinglian's warm smile stagnated on his face.

Then, she blinked her eyes, and there were tears in her eyes.

"I understand, Lin Ze, please tell Mr. Mu, thank you for his stay these days."

She bowed to Lin Ze and left the hall.

Seeing her so decisive, Lin Ze suddenly felt a sense of guilt.

ten minutes later.

Quan Zhengrong broke into Mu Jingchen's room and asked, "Jingchen, why are you rushing Qinglian to leave?"

Mu Jingchen was flipping through a collection of books without even raising his head.

"If the adoptive father wants to take her in, there are many hotels in Jiangcheng."

Quan Zhengrong walked up to him and scolded: "She is a girl, what guarantee can she have in a hotel?"

Mu Jingchen was expressionless.

"There are so many bodyguards in the Quan family, and my adopted father transfers ten or eight. I don't mind."

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Quan Zhengrong said angrily, "Jingchen, what do you mean, the adoptive father is taking in a guest now, but it depends on your face?"

Mu Jingchen stopped flipping through the books and looked up at his foster father.

"Father, there are some things, it's boring if we say it on the face."

Quan Zhengrong looked directly into his eyes.

"What do you want to say?"

Mu Jingchen threw the book in his hand on the table, got up and said, "Foster father found a woman so similar to Li Yuechang, what is his intention?"

The two looked at each other, their eyes were cold.

Quan Zhengrong looked puzzled: "What are you talking about?"

Mu Jingchen had already guessed the reaction of his adoptive father.

He took out his mobile phone, flipped through Li Yue's photo, and put it in front of his adoptive father.

"Foster father don't tell me, you don't know what Liyue looks like."

Quan Zhengrong stared at the picture of Huangfu Liyue on the screen, looking surprised.
