CHAPTER 1116: 317 HOW ABOUT WE GO NEXT DOOR_5

But that kind of draft, no one would write it themselves, right?

Qin Mu couldn’t figure it out, and without evidence, she didn’t dare to say anything reckless. She could only put the matter aside for now and sat back at her desk to work.

At noon, snowflakes suddenly blew in from outside. It was like the snow was being swept over from the west and not falling from the sky, very fierce and intense!

It was like snow that didn’t belong to this time of year, making even those who loved snow unable to smile.

Mu Yichen called Qin Mu in the afternoon: "I’ll pick you up tonight!"

"Okay! What are you doing right now?"

"In a meeting!"

Mu Yichen said, then lifted his eyes to the conference room. It was empty except for him.

"See you later then!"

Qin Mu really thought he was still in a meeting, imagining a room full of people around him, very serious.

With Mu Yichen’s personality, he might indeed call her about trivial things during a meeting.

After Qin Mu put down her phone, she continued drawing, but soon someone came to see her, it was Li Man.

"Did I disturb your work?"

Li Man saw she interrupted Qin Mu’s drawing and couldn’t help but ask apologetically.

"It’s okay! Come in!"

Qin Mu thought about Jiang Zhiyuan’s matter, guessing she might be here because of that.

Li Man walked in, a bit apologetic: "I didn’t realize I had come here until I was already at the side, it’s very abrupt, sorry, and I didn’t bring a gift either."

"No problem! Have a seat!"

Qin Mu smiled slightly, letting her sit on the chair opposite.

Li Man moved the chair and sat down, then faced Qin Mu: "Seeing you so busy, I won’t beat around the bush, I actually came this afternoon because there’s something I want to consult with you."

After Li Man finished speaking, she awkwardly smiled. She had been thinking about that matter for a while, feeling very guilty. Because of her own impulsiveness, the person who helped her had to face trouble.

"Jiang Zhiyuan, right?"

Qin Mu was also very straightforward.

Li Man heard her mention Jiang Zhiyuan’s name and knew she surely knew about it, immediately nodded: "Yes! That Mr. Jiang helped me stop that man’s harassment that night because of you, and he sent me home after knowing that man had people outside to teach me a lesson. I didn’t expect his girlfriend to misunderstand, of course, he probably didn’t expect it either."

Li Man looked up talking for a while, then awkwardly lowered her head, she was genuinely extremely sorry.

"Jiang Zhiyuan has already told me about what happened that night, and his girlfriend now understands everything. You don’t need to worry about it anymore."

"Really? But yesterday when I was out on a shoot, I saw the two of them leaving unhappily from that little square, was it because of something else?"

Li Man was a bit excited but then thought it might be something else.

"What’s between them is not quite what you think; I can only tell you, they are not arguing because of you, Li Man. It could be anyone, but if someone was rescued by Jiang Zhiyuan that night, they would be the scapegoat. His girlfriend is worried about his character, not whether he has an improper relationship with another woman."

Qin Mu thought while speaking, but didn’t dare to say too much, as she was just an observer after all.

"So, do you think I need to clear things up personally with his girlfriend? It’s not because of anything else, I just don’t want to be the homewrecker of their relationship, besides, you know best who I truly like."

"If I were you, I wouldn’t go! But your actions are for you to decide."

Qin Mu pondered a bit, then honestly replied in a soft voice.

"You don’t know, when I told Li Yu I had fallen for a young man, he actually told me to get along with him, Qin Mu, how can there be such a ruthless man in this world?"

Li Man thought for a long time after hearing her words and expressed her sadness to her before crying.

Qin Mu listened, but she didn’t know what to say. In this world, love comes in so many forms, and every couple’s journey is different.

"Sometimes I really want to find someone to pretend in front of him, to see if he really is that heartless, but I love him so much I don’t want him to see me pretending."

Li Man spoke, turning her head else where, fiercely wiping the tears off her face with her hand, and blowing her nose hard.

Qin Mu didn’t understand why so many people liked to confide in her, but what could she really help them with?

"Were you and Mu always like that too? Before knowing you loved each other."

Indeed! That seemed to be the easiest way to make someone anxious, to appear in front of them with another good-looking person.

Qin Mu suddenly thought of Jing Qing and then smiled helplessly: "Maybe!"

Perhaps saying this would make Li Man feel better?

Seeing her so composed, Li Man suddenly smiled, wiping away her tears: "Look at me, not serious at all!"

Qin Mu’s serious demeanor made her seem distant. Li Man suddenly felt she was rash, having taken advantage of Qin Mu several times now finding her to talk about these things.

"Then I won’t interrupt your work! It snowed for half an hour, maybe it was too fast, the grass even turned a bit white, I’m leaving, going to see it before it melts!"

Qin Mu stood up to see her off.

After work, Qin Mu waited upstairs for Mu Yichen’s car. As usual, Zhao Huai’s car came first, and lately, Xiaomei hasn’t been using her small car much because Zhao Huai always came to pick her up, even though no one knew where they’d go.

Mu Yichen’s car arrived a few minutes later, parked downstairs of the studio.

Qin Mu didn’t hurry downstairs, suddenly feeling the quietness here and wanting to wait for him to come up.

So when Mu Yichen came up, he saw her hunched on the sofa, flipping through her phone, when just before, she was standing by the window.

Mu Yichen walked over, sat opposite her, leaning forward like she was, his dark eyes quietly watching her for a while.

"Don’t want to go back?"

Mu Yichen finally broke the silence in the office.

"No! Just waiting for you to come up and get me!"

Qin Mu smiled, a little mischievous.

Mu Yichen squinted his eyes in resignation, appearing as if he had no way to handle her.

"You enjoy messing with me more and more, huh?"

"Yes! Who told you to be later than Zhao Huai again!"

Qin Mu lifted her eyebrows, a bit willful, then got up and went around to his side. As Mu Yichen straightened up, she just sat on his lap, lazily hanging one hand on his shoulder.

"Zhao Huai admitted to dating Xiaomei!"

Qin Mu said with a cheeky smile.

Mu Yichen also let out a helpless laugh, sighing: "Should have known sooner."

He slowly leaned back into the sofa, squinting at her: "But why are you so happy about them being together?"

"Of course, I’m happy! Our Xiaomei finally found her perfect match!"

Qin Mu said happily and was about to get up from him but was easily held by his hand on her waist, making her unable to move. Qin Mu lowered her eyes to look briefly, then hugged him, determined to stay on his lap.

"Last night you didn’t do that thing, how about we go to the bedroom next door?"
