Highly toxic

After seven o'clock in the evening, Geng Yan hung up the phone to report to his subordinates, and the whole person suddenly relaxed so slightly.

Jiang Mu's injury was not serious, and he could recover after a short rest for two days.

But even so, Geng Yan was still very anxious in his heart. He knew that Jiang Mu needed someone to take care of him the most, and that Tang Qingran was guarding Jiang Mu closely. He was afraid that Jiang Mu would really fall in love with Tang Qingran.

If Jiang Mu really empathized with him, what's the point of all his forbearance and hard work.

Everything has to be sped up.

"Brother Yan, have you tidied up yet?"

Outside the bedroom, Tang Yuan was knocking on the door, and he promised Tang Yuan that he would go to the restaurant for dinner together later.

Geng Yan picked up the coat at hand and left the bedroom. On the way to the restaurant, Geng Yan told Tang Yuan that he needed to go back to Country M for a while to handle some business.

Geng Yan's career focus has already been fully shifted to Zhong'an City, and he suddenly plans to return to country M to handle the so-called official duties. Tang Yuan can more or less guess what it is.

"I'll go with Brother Yan." Tang Yuan hugged Geng Yan's waist, and arched his head affectionately under Geng Yan's neck, "I won't disturb Brother Yan's work, I will accompany Brother Yan and give Brother Yan Get rid of the boredom."

Geng Yan smiled slightly, "Okay, I was planning to bring you with me."

Transfer the venue of open and covert fighting to M country, then it will be safe here.

After this day of tossing, he believed that Yan Fuqing should have given up working on Jiang Mu.

Two days later, Geng Yan took Tang Yuan to country M, and before leaving, he made a special trip to Zhuang Xi's place.

In fact, even without the address provided by Geng Yan, Zhuang Xi still got in touch with Jiang Mu.

After Geng Yan and Tang Yuan approached him, Jiang Mu didn't feel that his current address needed to be kept secret, so he took the initiative to contact Zhuang Xi.

Jiang Mu didn't tell Zhuang Xi about his injury, but Zhuang Xi had actually heard about it from Geng Yan.

Jiang Mu told Zhuang Xi that he was busy with work and asked him to come back in half a month. Zhuang Xi agreed, but came to find him the next afternoon.

After staying in the hospital for a day, Jiang Mu returned to the apartment. The gangsters who beat him were all arrested, but they all confessed that they had admitted to the wrong person. Ruthless.

It seems that it is a simple civil case. If you close it for a few days and pay some money, the matter will be settled.

Jiang Mu always felt that things were not that simple. When these thugs came to him, they were clearly targeting him.

Tang Qingran took care of Jiang Mu in the hospital for a day, Jiang Mu didn't want to trouble Tang Qingran too much, and was discharged the next day.

Jiang Mu took two days off from the company, and the supervisor readily approved it.

Jiang Mu planned to return to Zhong'an City after a while to sell that apartment, and then buy a high-rise apartment building in a high-end community here.

At least security can be adequately guaranteed.

After seeing Jiang Mu, Zhuang Xi saw that one of Jiang Mu's eyes was black and blue, and there were still bruises on the corners of his brows and mouth.

Zhuang Xi didn't expect Jiang Mu to be injured so badly.

"Leaving Zhong'an City, it's not as safe as before." Zhuang Xi said unforgivingly, but her eyes were full of worry, "Is your body hurt enough?"

Jiang Mu was caught off guard by Zhuang Xi's appearance, so he lied and said, "I accidentally fell and fell... and it hurt like this."

"Did you fall? What? Did you roll down the stairs?"

Jiang Mu nodded vigorously.

Zhuang Xi couldn't laugh or cry, but he didn't open his mouth to expose it. He walked into Jiang Mu's small apartment, looked around first, and sighed, "Although it's a little small, it's well taken care of."

"It's also due to the previous tenant." Jiang Mu said, looking at the small luggage bag that Zhuang Xi threw on the sofa, and said in confusion, "By the way, Zhuang Xi, you brought this bag... because you plan to play more here. How many days?"

Zhuang Xi walked to the dumpling's nest and hugged the dumpling in her arms, "Well, but I don't plan to stay in a hotel, it's too boring to be alone, don't mind if I stay with you for a few days."

"My place?" Jiang Mu was a little embarrassed, "But I only have one room here."

Zhuang Xi came to the door of the bedroom, saw the 1.8-meter bed inside, and nodded contentedly, "Isn't the bed quite big, it's no problem to sleep two people, what's the matter, Xiao Jiang, are you afraid that I will take advantage of you at night? Let me tell you, a little beauty like me is the one who gets taken advantage of everywhere."

Jiang Mu was amused, "I won't take advantage of you."

"Then it's settled."

At this time, Jiang Mu's cell phone rang.

After looking at the caller ID, Jiang Mu immediately said to Zhuang Xi, "I'm taking a call from a friend."

Jiang Mu turned around and went to the balcony to connect.

Zhuang Xi approached quietly, pricked up his ears to listen, and could tell from the intermittent words that someone asked Jiang Mu to have dinner together at night, but Jiang Mu refused because he had friends at home.

Before Zhuang Xi came here, Geng Yan told him that there was a man surnamed Tang in Tanghai City who was pursuing Jiang Mu, and he was also Geng Yan's most threatening rival in love at the moment. Take his place in Jiang Mu's heart.

Jiang Mu came in from the balcony, and Zhuang Xi immediately suggested, "Xiao Jiang, I'm going to travel to **, come with me, and I'll cover the whole expenses."

"I have a job now, how can I just leave."

"Then resign. How much salary do you get in that small company in January? It must not even be half of your manuscript salary."

Jiang Mu said softly, "I like the current pace of life, it makes me feel that everything is on the right track, and next month my boss is going on a business trip abroad, and my supervisor told me that he is going to bring me along to study along the way. This is an improvement. Great opportunity for myself."

Zhuang Xi frowned, "How long have you been here, you are still in the internship period, your boss will take you with you on business trips? Why is the company so lax."

"I was just as surprised as you at the beginning." Jiang Mu said with a smile, "But my supervisor said that I am serious and progressive in my work and should focus on training me, and our company is not too small, in..."

"Stop it first, I don't understand your work, so I won't ask, but..." Zhuang Xi said solemnly, "Since you want to choose to work hard, you can't be full of love."

"Love?" Jiang Mu smiled bitterly, "I have never thought about it, and I will never think about it."

"Then..." Zhuang Xi asked tentatively, "What if someone chases you?"

"Who?"

"Whoever treats you sincerely will be chasing you."

Jiang Mu laughed, "According to your calculations, can people communicate with each other normally? Do I have to suspect that you have a crush on me?"

Zhuang Xi couldn't help laughing, "Xiao Jiang, you are much more talkative now than before."

Zhuang Xi lived in Jiang Mu's place for more than ten days in a row. When Jiang Mu went to work during the day, Zhuang Xi would either be bored in the apartment alone playing with dumpling briquettes, or go shopping in the mall for beauty treatment.

Once Jiang Mu got off work, Zhuang Xi followed Jiang Mu almost every step of the way. He either waited for Jiang Mu to return to the apartment to prepare dinner together, or took Jiang Mu out to eat out. Anyway, he didn't give Jiang Mu a chance to date with others.

Soon it was time for Jiang Mu to accompany his boss on a business trip. Zhuang Xi specially accompanied Jiang Mu to the mall to buy two business suits for business trips.

"I have to go on a business trip for half a month. This is too fucking exaggerated. Is there no one in your company? You, an intern, must go with you." Zhuang Xi looked at Jiang Mu, who was packing his luggage, with an unhappy expression on his face. "Then I'm going to be left hanging here for more than ten days."

"I can become a regular when I come back this trip, and I suggest you go back to Zhong'an City, at least there are friends you know."

"Why don't I go with you?"

"I'm going to work, and country Y is so far away, it takes about ten hours on the plane alone, so you don't have to worry about it." Jiang Mu said, "I still expect you to help me take care of the dumpling briquettes. If you go back to Zhong'an City , send them to a nearby pet store for half a month.”

"By the way, you really plan to settle here in Tanghai City, so you won't go back to Zhong'an City?"

"Will go back, have to find time to sell the apartment over there."

"and then?"

"What else? Then, everything is fine here, and it will be even better in the future."

Zhuang Xi sat by the bed, and asked Jiang Mu meaningfully, "Xiao Jiang, if Geng Yan came back to look for you, would you still..."

"Zhuang Xi." Jiang Mu interrupted Zhuang Xi, and said in a deep voice, "It's been so long, why do you still mention him?"

"It's been such a long time since then, why do you still react so strongly when you mention him?"

"I……"

"You haven't forgotten him?"

Jiang Mu zipped up the luggage bag heavily, and said coldly, "Maybe I hate it too much."

"That's right, after all he hurt you so deeply." Zhuang Xi smiled, "Then wait for him to come back and ask him to kneel down and apologize to you, well, I think it will be soon."

Jiang Mu was slightly startled, and turned to look at Zhuang Xi in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"You'll find out in a few days."

The next morning, Jiang Mu packed up everything and prepared to leave with his luggage on his shoulders. He went to the bedroom to say goodbye to Zhuang Xi who was lying sprawled on the bed.

"Go, go..." Zhuang Xi said vaguely without opening her eyes, "Be careful."

Jiang Mu took a taxi and headed to the airport excitedly. He was full of expectations for this journey, and he was also relieved that the company recognized and valued him. This at least shows that he is very suitable for this job.

When approaching the airport, Jiang Mu received a call from a stranger.

After answering the phone, Jiang Mu realized that the other party was actually He Qianyan.

"Xiao Jiang, there are some things I want to tell you before we meet." He Qianyan's voice was slow and gentle, with a trace of strange coolness in it.

Jiang Mu's voice was very polite, "What does Mr. He want to say?"

After hearing about He Qianyan's hidden illness from Geng Yan, Jiang Mu felt a little bit of sympathy for He Qianyan in addition to hating him. He knew how self-respecting and strong He Qianyan was. It brought great trauma to his body and mind.

But sometimes Jiang Mu couldn't help thinking that this might be retribution.

"I really, really hate you..." He Qianyan said in a very soft voice, "But I also need you, Xiao Jiang, when we meet again, as long as you apologize to me, I will..."

He Qianyan paused for two seconds, then chuckled and said, "No, it's useless to apologize, and even an apology won't wash away the filth on your body."

"Did Mr. He just wake up? His consciousness doesn't seem to be sober." Jiang Mu said indifferently, "If it's possible, I'd better not meet each other. We're not happy with each other. Why bother?"

He Qianyan laughed, "Xiaojiang, I'll wait for you..."

After He Qianyan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Jiang Mu was a little baffled. After putting away the phone, his right eyelid twitched suddenly.

Jiang Mu rubbed his eyes subconsciously.
