At this time, although he was talking with Lin Wenzheng, Mu Shaoling, who still paid attention to Ruan Bai's movement from time to time, noticed that she was not looking right, so he hurriedly ended the conversation there, and strode over to this side.

The man was wearing a slim handmade suit, his figure was so tall and slender that he was incomparably tall.

When Lin Ning saw him walking over, she was so addicted that she couldn't extricate herself. She had never seen a man who could wear a suit so nicely like him.

Mu Shaoling hugged Ruan Bai's waist, kissed her plump forehead, and asked gently and concerned: "What's wrong?"

At this moment, Ruan Bai was like a drowning person, suddenly grabbed a piece of driftwood, and immediately felt at ease.

Ruan Bai told the truth: "I'm not feeling well. Ms. Lin said that she has stomach medicine here and wants me to take some medicine to relieve it, but I don't want to take medicine..."

Ruan Bai forcibly forced Lin Ning, saying it very tactfully, after all, they are now in the Lin family, and they can't fight at will because of a trivial matter.

From the perspective of a businessman, peace is the most important thing.

Hearing Ruan Bai's words, when Mu Shaoling looked at Lin Ning with his seemingly casual gaze, it was extremely sharp and cold.

He accuses in a cold voice unceremoniously: "Miss Lin, you can talk nonsense, but can you take medicine indiscriminately? If there is a problem with taking it, can you be responsible?"

The man's eyes were so sharp that Lin Ning didn't even have the courage to look directly at him.

She faltered and said, "I...I was too worried about Miss Ruan, so I...sorry, I didn't figure it out, I was too reckless."

Lin Ning's seemingly apologetic eyes made people feel that it was Ruan Bai and Mu Shaoling's fault to pursue further.

Ruan Bai knew that Lin Ning had always loved acting, so she could only say to Mu Shaoling: "Forget it, Miss Lin has no other malicious intentions, she may be really worried about my physical condition, it's fine."

Mu Shaoling didn't speak, but just had a cold handsome face, without even looking at Lin Ning, he walked to the other side of the banquet hall.

Lin Ning froze in place in embarrassment, unable to recover for a long time.

At this moment, Mu Shaoling was not in the mood to talk to other guests, so he put his arms around Ruan Bai and bid farewell to Lin Wenzheng and his wife: "Secretary Lin, tonight is New Year's Eve, and my old man asked us to go back for the New Year's Eve dinner, so we must leave first." gone."

"Well, let's go back earlier, the elderly like to have a happy New Year reunion." Lin Wenzheng said.

He was a little disappointed. Originally, he wanted to make Mu Shaoling his son-in-law, but today he brought other women over at Ning Ning's birthday party. It seems that he really has no feelings for his daughter. , and even disdain to pretend.

"Xiaobai, your architectural design is very good. My father-in-law is still talking about meeting you in real life. Come to Lin's house as a guest when you have time!" Zhou Qing said warmly, holding Ruan Bai's hand.

A banquet narrowed the distance between Zhou Qing and Ruan Bai, and she even felt a little bit reluctant to leave Ruan Bai.

Ruan Bai smiled generously: "Okay, Mrs. Lin. I have left my phone number and WeChat. If there is anything you don't understand, or if you have suggestions for improvement, you can contact me in time to communicate. I will try my best to do it." Let Mr. Lin be satisfied."

Until the pair of outstanding handsome men and beautiful women left the banquet hall, Zhou Qing still did not look back.

She muttered to Lin Wenzheng: "Wenzheng, if our child is still alive, it should be as big as Ruan Bai..."

Lin Wenzheng embraced her shoulders, looked at Lin Ning who was surrounded by young talents, and comforted him: "Don't think too much about the past, our biological child will never come back, now that Ning Ning is here, That's enough."

Zhou Qing was silent.

Although Lin Ning is well-behaved, sensible, and considerate, she also treats her as her own, but for some reason, she always feels that there is an inexplicable gap between her daughter and herself, maybe it is her own illusion?

...

Mu Shaoling started the engine of the car and fastened the seat belt for Ruan Bai in the passenger seat. The low-key and luxurious luxury car shuttled through the night like a sharp arrow, crossed the row upon row of high-rise buildings in City A, and soon arrived at Mu's old house.

According to the rules of the Mu family, there must be a reunion dinner on New Year's Eve.

After Ruan Bai and a group of Mu's family had a dull New Year's Eve dinner, they drove back to the villa area where they lived alone with Mu Shaoling and a pair of twins.

Fortunately, the place where they lived was only 40 minutes away from the Mu family's old house.

Along the way, the usually bustling and lively streets are a bit cold, and the crowded and chaotic crowds seem to have disappeared out of thin air.

Most of the shops are closed, and only a few vehicles drive alone on the street.

Occasionally, there are a few huge fireworks, floating in the night sky of the city, and there are dots of firecrackers...

Because city A is an international metropolis, in order to protect the city's environment, maintain the image of city A as an international metropolis, and worry about the safety of citizens, the government of city A prohibits setting off firecrackers or fireworks during the New Year. The smell has diminished a lot over the years.

At this time, Mu Shaoling, who was driving, was carrying Ruan Bai, and their pair of babies who were laughing happily in the back seat, his mood changed a lot.

Although he was tired after a busy day, he felt extremely satisfied and warm.

In the past, he hated the New Year, because every New Year, he was abandoned in the corner during the lively and joyous reunion nights of others. It was a kind of spiritual loneliness and loneliness. People who have never experienced it would not understand it.

When they returned to their warm little home, it was past eleven o'clock at night, and the two children were clamoring for supper.

Ruan Bai rolled up his sleeves and got busy in the kitchen again.

In the huge villa, each room is lit with a lamp, illuminating the dark world extremely brightly.

Ruan Bai cooked a few simple dishes, and soon the air in the kitchen was filled with the sweet aroma of nourishing porridge...

This is a warm and bright love nest.

Ruan Bai was stirring the porridge in the kitchen, while Mu Shaoling embraced Xiang Xiang's body behind her, whispering affectionately in her ear: "I think today is the happiest New Year's Eve I've ever had in so many years. Thank you, baby."

The light stretched their shadows very long, vaguely, almost occupying half of the wall.

In the past, under the light, he was always alone, facing the light safely, embracing a shadow without sleep. But shadows and lamps are always the most inspiring. The lonely figure in the past has now become a pair of shadows. At this time, Mu Shaoling is not usually satisfied.

Ruan Bai turned around, stood on tiptoe, kissed his thin lips tenderly, and said, "I assure you, every new year's Eve in the future, you will be so happy..."
