Mu Jingxian had already started the car. When he heard the girl's question, he knew what she was worried about, so he picked up the portable coffee thermos cup that had been prepared in the car for a long time, shook it and said, "I've already drunk it. I feel energetic now."

Lin Sisi looked at the coffee thermos and frowned, as if she had thought of something.

“Is this the extra bitter coffee?”

"Ah."

"...Uh, you seem to like this brand very much."

"Well, because it has a significant refreshing effect."

"But I still want to advise you to stay up less late and drink less coffee. Drinking too much is bad for your health."

"understood."

"I know you wouldn't listen even if you knew. After all, the company is more important to you."

Lin Sisi muttered this sentence, and only realized something was wrong after she finished speaking, and explained in a panic.

"Ah, I'm not worried about you. I just said what I wanted to say. Of course, this is just a suggestion. You can listen to it or not."

She said hurriedly and turned her head away. Even though the heater was on in the car, she could feel her cheeks getting hot.

Lin Sisi herself didn't know why she couldn't help but want to care about his health.

Maybe it’s because... it’s because Mu Jingxian helped her a lot.

That's right!

That's it!

Lin Sisi panicked and found an excuse for herself, and only then did she feel a little relieved.

Then I heard Mu Jingxian's voice.

"I'll listen to your advice."

There was a cool and gentle feeling in his words. Lin Sisi's heart began to pound. She bit her lip and didn't dare to look forward at all. No matter where she looked, she felt it was strange.

The car was silent for a few minutes. Lin Sisi felt that it was too quiet. She rubbed her fingers, feeling that she should do something so as not to appear helpless.

I want to take out my phone to watch something, but I don’t know what to watch.

After secretly glancing at the back of Mu Jingxian who was driving quietly, Lin Sisi finally chose to say something to him.

"Mu Jingxian, I'm curious, are you really not sleepy now?"

"not sleepy."

A cold and clear voice floated over, and Lin Sisi curled her lips and said "oh".

But Mu Jingxian asked her if she was sleepy.

Lin Sisi turned her eyes to the window and muttered, "How could I be sleepy? I slept last night. You didn't sleep all night."

She looked at the unfamiliar streets outside that were constantly receding and asked curiously, "By the way, where are you taking me this time?"

Moreover, Mu Jingxian has been driving for such a long time and has not reached the destination yet. Is this place very far away?

He said he wanted to understand the relationship between Qin Yin's men and Song Xiaoqian's ex-father, and it was investigated by Long Tianyi. Did he have to go to... the police station?

When she thought of this, Lin Sisi felt sick all over.

If she were to come face to face with Long Tianyi at that time, wouldn't she be extremely embarrassed?

But she was not sure, so Lin Sisi asked, "Are we going to the police station?"

Mu Jingxian hummed.

Hearing his admission, Lin Sisi felt her eyelids twitching violently and couldn't stop. She always felt that something big was going to happen next.

She was very panicked. Even though Mu Jingxian had told her many times that he had already dealt with Long Tianyi's issues concerning her, she was still panicked.

"Do we really have to go meet that fellow Long Tianyi?"

Lin Sisi found that her lips trembled a little when she said this.

And now I have an urge to jump out of the car.

Mu Jingxian said: "It's okay, I'm here, you don't have to be afraid of him."

Lin Sisi said with a twitching mouth: "I'm not afraid of him, I just feel... it's a little inappropriate to meet him now, you know? And if I had known that you would drag me to the police station to meet him, I would not have taken this black car."

She muttered the last sentence in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

But there were only two of them in the car, and Mu Jingxian heard it clearly.

Somehow, Lin Sisi's muttering seemed to hit his funny bone, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

After hearing this, Lin Sisi frowned in dissatisfaction and asked: "Mu Jingxian, are you making fun of me?!"

As he spoke, he clenched his fists.

Mu Jingxian looked at the girl's playful appearance reflected in the rearview mirror, and the smile on his lips deepened.

"No, I just think you're cute."

When these words came out of Mu Jingxian's mouth, it seemed very strange no matter how you listened to them.

But Lin Sisi's old face couldn't help but turn red.

"You, what are you talking about? I'm already an adult, and the word you used to describe me is really a bit inappropriate, isn't it?"

She hid in the corner because she was too shy, lowered her head, and patted her cheeks repeatedly with her hands, hoping that the heat would dissipate quickly.

At the same time, because of this sentence, my heart beat especially fast.

She didn't understand why Mu Jingxian said that. After all, she had never heard him say such things before. Now it sounded too ambiguous.

Lin Sisi's words made the smile on Mu Jingxian's face disappear.

He seemed to have thought of something, and finally hummed and said, "You're right, I won't say that again in the future."

The owner of this body is named Song Xiaoqian, not Lin Sisi. Even though she is using someone else's body, her identity in the outside world is still Song Xiaoqian. The real Lin Sisi only ever wears that uncoordinated suit and works desperately. There is no way these two people can be connected together.

Thinking of this, Mu Jingxian took a deep breath.

Suddenly, he asked the question he had always wanted to ask.

"Lin Sisi, when you inherited your family's company, you also worked day and night, right?"

The heat on Lin Sisi's face finally subsided. After hearing what Mu Jingxian said, she was a little puzzled as to why he mentioned this out of the blue.

But he still hummed and said, "That can't be helped. If I don't work hard, the company might really go bankrupt in my hands. After all, it was handed over to me by my father, and I must make some achievements. But who knew that such an outrageous thing would happen later, that I would lose my life, the company, and my family would be destroyed. Ugh!"

Lin Sisi seemed particularly relaxed when she said these words, as if she didn't care about these things at all, but only she herself knew how many nights she had spent in collapse after these things happened.

Mu Jingxian said: "The same principle applies to me. Although I think differently from you, I have been working hard to run the company for my deceased family members and my sister, and that is why I have persisted until now."
