Li Ning thought that Shen Muzhi only read documents and various contract reports every day, but he didn't expect that he also had a hobby of collecting books.

Randomly picked up a book on the bookshelf, Li Ning took off his high heels, lay on the sofa, picked up a cookie and read it while eating.

What Li Ning was reading was a book of miscellaneous tales from ancient times, it was full of strange things, and he read it with great interest.

It's just that when she ate the second biscuit, she felt that the taste of this biscuit was a bit indescribable.

Li Ning put down the book and took a look at the half-eaten biscuit. Although it tasted like matcha tea, there was still a faint, indescribable smell.

Li Ning felt that it was not to his appetite, so he put the biscuits back on the plate, took a few sips of black tea to clear his mouth.

The banquet downstairs was in progress, the sound of dancing and music was intertwined, and it was very lively, but Li Ning, the heroine, was hiding in the study alone and reading, which was quite pleasant.

But after watching it for a while, Li Ning suddenly felt a little hot, but it was autumn right now, and the air conditioner was not turned on in the room. Before, Li Ning still felt a little cold, but it suddenly became hot for some reason.

She took the book and fanned it, but not only did she not feel cool, but the slightest movement made her even hotter, and soon fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Moreover, Li Ning felt that the breath he exhaled was hot, and his mouth was dry, as if someone had drained the moisture from his body little by little.

She took a few deep breaths, looked at the black tea on the table, took it up and drank it clean.

At the same time, downstairs, Shen Muxing and Sun Muze were discussing cooperation intentions, a waiter approached and said: "Second Young Master, Eldest Young Mistress said that you have something to do, please come over."

"Sister-in-law? What's the matter?"

"Eldest young mistress didn't say anything, she just told you to go there in person." The waiter shook his head and said.

"Where is she?" Shen Muxing asked along the way.

"The eldest young mistress is in the study on the second floor."

"Who are you with?" Shen Muxing said and stood up.

"It seems that I am alone." The waiter thought for a while and said.

Shen Muxing frowned, feeling a little weird.

Seeing that Shen Muxing was hesitant, Sun Muze said: "Our business is not urgent, maybe Dr. Li has something urgent, Mu Xing, you go and have a look first."

Shen Muxing nodded, and immediately prepared to go upstairs, but he always felt something strange in his heart.

At this moment, he turned his head and saw Shen Muzhi talking to Lu Ming, he hesitated for a moment and walked over.

"Brother, borrow one to talk." Shen Muxing whispered in Shen Muzhi's ear.

"Director Lu, I have something to deal with here, so excuse me first." Shen Muzhi nodded slightly to Lu Mingqing, then followed Shen Mu to the stairs on the second floor.

Li Ran and Liang Lili, who were standing in the corner, were staring at Shen Muzhi and Shen Muxing's movements intently.

"Shen Muzhi is really in the way!" Li Ran muttered.

"Will something go wrong? I don't think Shen Muxing intends to go upstairs." Liang Lili worriedly frowned.

Li Ran also clenched her fists because of nervousness, she bit her lips, "No, I have to find someone to hold Shen Muzhi back and let Shen Muxing go upstairs by himself."

Before Liang Lili could open her mouth, Li Ran walked to the wine counter, picked up a glass of red wine, glanced around when no one noticed her, and said in a cold voice: "Stop Shen Muzhi, and I'll give it to you when it's done." You [-], if you can't do it, you don't even want to get a penny!"

The waiter glanced at Shen Muzhi, frowned and said in a low voice: "But it was agreed at the beginning..."

"It's agreed that you will get the money if you finish the matter!" Li Ran said sadly.

The waiter hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and walked towards Shen Muzhi.

Shen Muzhi and Shen Muxing were about to go upstairs when a waiter approached and said, "Mr. Shen, there is a man over there who says he is Mrs. Shen's childhood sweetheart and wants to see you."

"Sister-in-law's friend? Then why do you want to see you?" Shen Muxing asked strangely.

"Who is it?" Shen Muzhi asked.

The waiter shook his head, "Listening to what the man said, he seemed to have a very close relationship with Mrs. Shen before."

"The relationship is very close? Why didn't I hear that my sister-in-law had any childhood sweethearts before?"

At the beginning, Shen Muxing was responsible for the investigation of Li Ning's information. Not only Li Ning's own situation, but also the personnel information around her since she was a child, had been carefully investigated, so a childhood sweetheart suddenly appeared, and Shen Muxing felt strange at first.

The waiter shook his head again, "That's what the man said. I think since he is Mrs. Shen's friend, he shouldn't be neglected, so I passed the word on my behalf."

"Why don't I go and see, brother, go and see what's going on with sister-in-law first." Shen Muxing thought for a while and said.

Shen Muzhi nodded lightly, turned around and was about to go upstairs.

"But... that man said he wanted to see Mr. Shen himself. It seems that he wanted to talk about Mrs. Shen." Seeing that the situation was not going in the direction he thought, the waiter immediately said anxiously.

Shen Muzhi paused for a while, turned his head and told Shen Muxing, "You should go upstairs with me and let Bai Xin find out who it is."

"Brother, don't worry." Shen Muxing nodded slightly, greeted Bai Xin and approached him, and followed Shen Muzhi upstairs after giving two instructions.

The waiter watched Shen Muzhi and Shen Muxing go upstairs, and his heart sank, but the matter has come to this point, and it cannot be undone.

"Let's go, where is he?" Bai Xin patted the waiter and urged.

The waiter closed his eyes and walked towards the door with Bai Xin.

Because it was an excuse to hold back Shen Muzhi, so of course there was no childhood sweetheart.

"Where is the person?" Bai Xin asked the waiter.

"He was here just now, and he asked me to send a message, saying that he was waiting here. Somehow, he disappeared." The waiter shook his head pretending to be puzzled.

"What a waste!" Li Ran angrily put the wine glass heavily on the table, the wine overflowed, and a few drops stained her dress red.

"Shen Muzhi went up with Shen Muxing, I'm afraid this matter will be lost." Liang Lili muttered depressingly.

Li Ran still had his last hope, "Not necessarily, maybe Shen Muzhi went upstairs for other things."

Liang Lili shook her head and sighed, knowing that her words were just comforting herself.

But Li Ran suddenly thought about it, "Mom, didn't you say just now that you saw two tabloid reporters sneaking in among the guests?"

"Yeah, what's the matter?" Liang Lili nodded, but she looked puzzled.

"Pass a note to those two people and tell them that there is big news upstairs. If they can take pictures of the evidence of Li Ning's embarrassment, it will be useless for Shen Muzhi to protect her by then!" Li Ran thought of these , just now there was a tricky smile on his gloomy face again.

Liang Lili also clapped her hands and smiled immediately, "Daughter, you are so smart. Even if there is no way to get rid of that damn girl Li Ning, let her get rid of her skin!"
