It has been several days without relying on drugs to help sleep, but I have experienced so much tonight, I am afraid it will be difficult to fall asleep naturally.

Mu Xin sighed, opened the medicine box, and was about to take the medicine when there was a knock on the door.

She froze and looked towards the door: "Who is it?"

"It's me, are you asleep?"

Mu Xin breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Shen Yuan's voice when it was her cousin.

Putting another long-sleeved shirt on over the pajamas, he went to open the door and asked him with a smile, why he was not asleep yet.

Shi Shenyuan said that he met her in a hurry just now and didn't say a word, so he came to see her before going to bed.

Mu Xin welcomed him in.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and after exchanging a few pleasantries, Shi Shenyuan went straight to the topic: "When I called you, I was just about to go home. Why did you come to the manor suddenly?"

Before that, Shen Yuan called Mu Xin on the train and asked her where she was.

Mu Xin is a winemaker. When she received a call from Shi Shen Yuan, she had just returned from a wine estate abroad and arrived at Haicheng Airport. She was going home.

But when she hung up Shen Yuan's phone, her uncle called and asked her to come to the manor, because there was something wrong with the newly adopted skin-soaking brewing technology, and she hoped she would come and see what was going on.

So Mu Xin came, but she didn't expect that Fu Zichen was also there.

Uncle knew about her relationship with Fu Zichen, so he probably wouldn't intentionally let them get together, maybe it was just a coincidence, or a bad fate...

"If you told me on the phone that he was there, I would definitely not come." Mu Xin said.

Shi Shenyuan sighed, because she heard that she was going home, that's why he didn't mention meeting Fu Zichen on the train, and at that time he wasn't sure that Fu Zichen would come to the manor.

Then he looked at Mu Xin's eyes again, "So red, are you crying?"

Mu Xin smiled and said, "When I washed my hair, the shampoo got into my eyes."

Shi Shen Yuan nodded, "If he bullies you, tell me."

"He doesn't have the guts, don't worry."

At that time, Shen Yuan looked at her wrist again: "What's the matter with this injury?"

Mu Xin held her wrist, covered the bruise, and smiled helplessly: "Don't mention it, I was confused just now, and squeezed my arm when closing the door."

In fact, it was the scar from being held by Fu Zichen. That bastard was too rough today, and he really didn't have the slightest bit of sympathy for her.

For a while, she felt like she was going to die.

But she didn't want Shi Chenyuan to know what Fu Zichen did to her just now.

What's more, she didn't have the determination to push Fu Zichen away just now, she endured his aggression with a sick, self-torturing mentality.

Even though she knew that he was just unwilling and possessive, that he didn't want her anymore, and didn't want her to be with other men, she still couldn't refuse.

Like an addiction.

An addiction that she thought she had quit, but could easily flare up...

Really worthless.

But no matter what, you can't tell Cousin Shen Yuan, if he finds out, he will definitely destroy Fu Zichen.

When Fu Zichen escaped from marriage, cousin Shen Yuan took his younger brother Rong Ye and beat Fu Zichen up.

Because of this, the Fu family suppressed the Shi family in the business world, but in the end the two elders met, and for the sake of their past friendship, let it go.

Although the two did not officially open fire, there was almost no communication after that.

So Mu Xin was actually quite surprised when Uncle invited Fu Zichen to the manor today.

But she didn't bother to think about the reason, probably because of business matters.

For the common benefit, it is not impossible for the two families to turn their fighting into friendship.

"Okay, I'm going to bed, you can go quickly, your little girlfriend is not familiar with the place, you can go back to accompany her."

"Is she unfamiliar with the place?"

Shi Shenyuan laughed, saying that his family, Xiaoyu, was already familiar with the chef.There was a vegetarian grilled steak for dinner. She thought it was delicious. After the meal, she took a small notebook and went to ask someone for the recipe.

When Mu Xin heard this, she couldn't help laughing: "It means that the girl is eager to learn."

Shi Shen Yuan shook his head helplessly: "It's just a greedy cat, thinking about how to eat every day."

The two talked and walked to the door of the suite together.

Mu Xin said, "I'm fine, don't worry."

Shi Shen Yuan nodded: "As long as it's nothing, then I'll catch the greedy cat."

Mu Xin smiled and closed the door.

As soon as the door closed, her shoulders slumped, and the smile on her face slowly faded.

She went back to the bed, took out a tablet, swallowed it, and turned off the light to go to sleep.

As soon as she closed her eyes, everything in the bathroom returned to her eyes, but she immediately shook her head and told herself to take what happened just now as a dream.

The effect of the medicine began to take effect, her mind became drowsy, her consciousness became confused, and she gradually fell into sleep.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Mu Xin woke up with a cramping pain in her stomach, and looked at the time, it was one o'clock in the morning.

She sat up for a while, and felt her mouth was dry again, so she decided to go to the small kitchen on the second floor to find some hot water to drink to warm her stomach.

So he got out of bed, clutched his aching stomach, and walked out of the bedroom.

When she came to the small kitchen, uncle Shi Yuan was drinking at the bar.

"Uncle, you haven't slept yet."

Uncle looked at her and said with a smile: "Drink some wine to help you sleep, are you waking up?"

Mu Xin nodded and said that she was looking for water to drink.

Uncle helped her take out the water cup and brought her a cup of hot water.

She had an upset stomach and wanted to go back quickly, picked up the water glass and said, "Drink slowly, I'll go back to my room first."

"Mu Xin, wait a minute, I have something to ask you." Uncle beckoned to her.

So Mu Xin stood still, came to the bar, and sat on the bar chair opposite Shi Shiyuan.

"Uncle, you can ask."

"Do you still like Zichen?"

Mu Xin's heart sank, she lowered her head, and said nothing.

Shi Guangyuan took a sip of his wine and said: "Shen Yuan and his mother, before your cousin Xiao Ran died, there were some relationship problems. Later, because of my negligence, Xiao Ran's death was indirectly caused, and it became a relationship between me and his mother." The trigger for your aunt's divorce..."

He sighed, took another sip of wine, and continued: "I have been guilty and regretted all these years. If we had resolved the misunderstanding between us earlier, we would not have reached the point of divorce."

He looked at Mu Xin, "What does uncle mean by telling you this? I also watched Zichen grow up, and he is your father's student. I have never had any doubts about his character, so the outside world I have never believed those rumors. You two used to have such a good relationship, and now he is still single. Uncle just hopes that you two will have a good result, and don't wait until I am my age to regret it."

"But I'm married..."

Shi Guangyuan shook his head helplessly: "You girl, do you really think you can fool me?"

Mu Xin suddenly raised her head.

Shi Guangyuan said: "I know, your marriage is just a formality, and the two of you are already going through divorce procedures."

As soon as he finished speaking, the figure at the corner of the corridor shook slightly.
