C1090 A Meat Trap
After a while.
Sheng Yan only said "oh" to indicate that she had heard Mu Qichen's words, but she didn't want to express her stance.
Sheng Yan always knew that Mu Qichen was a very smart person.
He wanted her to stay, and after she rejected him, he did not mention it again. However, he had never given up on this.
He made her choose to accept the child in her womb, and then accept the child, Dad.
When the child's weight in Sheng Yan's heart reached a certain extent, she would start to not want to leave the baby. She would think about whether the baby could grow up healthily and happily in an environment without a mother or Dad's role.
Mu Qichen was like a person who took care of things step by step. He pulled Sheng Yan bit by bit into the pit that he had dug beforehand. Even if he was already hanging at the edge of the pit, he would still very calmly ask, Are you willing to jump down?
Mu Qichen did what he said. The quality of the bird's nest on the second day was exceptionally good. The shape was complete, the arc was perfect, and it was delicate and thick.
When it was near evening, the people from the Old Residence of the Mu Family sent something over again.
It just so happened to be a bird's nest.
It was also a blood bird's nest that could only be chanced upon by luck.
There was a unique embroidery on the outside of the brocade box containing the bird's nest. Sheng Yan had a vague impression of this bird's nest. A few months ago, there was even a small disturbance in the southern circle. Many rich wives wanted it. She did not expect that this bird's nest would be in Wan Liwan's hands.
They also didn't expect Wan Liwan to give it to her.
"How did the people from the Old Residence know about this bird nest?" Sheng Yan asked the maid beside her.
Another maid who bought the bird said, "Miss Sheng, it was me who ran into the servants of Old Residence today. They saw me buying the bird's nest and probably guessed it."
The top goods of the south city were all gathered in one or two shopping malls, so it was very normal to run into them.
Sheng Yan nodded. It was not good as long as someone told Wan Liwan the news.
She really hated the appearance of spies who took advantage of others to spy on them.
"Miss Sheng, this bird's nest..." the maid asked.
"When Mu Qichen comes back, give it to him."
"Yes."
After Mu Qichen came back, he did not mention Wan Liwan's nest anymore, as if this matter did not exist at all.
The next morning.
Sheng Yan was woken up by the servants knocking on the door.
The sound was very urgent, as if something urgent had happened. Sheng Yan, who was half-awake, almost instantly woke up from her sleep. She subconsciously protected her slightly bulging abdomen.
The knocking came from the side, and it was Mu Qichen's door.
Sheng Yan opened the door and saw Mu Qichen walking out while wearing his jacket. His face was somewhat gloomy, and he was walking as fast as flying.
He immediately noticed Sheng Yan, and his expression relaxed a little. "Did I wake you?"
Sheng Yan was not polite at all and replied, "Yes."
She had just woken up and her voice still carried a hint of softness. Even her expression was somewhat dazed. Two strands of ahoge appeared on top of her head. It was soft and cute.
Mu Qichen casually rubbed her head. "It's still early. I can sleep for a while more."
Sheng Yan glanced outside the bright window. It was already dawn. Where would she come from?
Could it be that she slept too much during this period of time?
She did not have a job. A non-social creature slept until 90 o'clock every day. Was it too much?
It was not too much!
"Young Master Mu, the car is ready." Another maid came to report with an anxious look.
"What happened?" Sheng Yan asked with a frown.
"I will settle the company's matter very soon. Be good." Mu Qichen held Sheng Yan's waist and led her to the room. He advised her to go back to sleep.
Sheng Yan was a person who liked sleeping, but at this moment, she did not have the desire and mood to sleep at all.
She pulled Mu Qichen's hand away, "Mu Qichen, you lied to me."
Mu Qichen's footsteps paused.
Sheng Yan said, "If it was about the company, why didn't Yue Gui come? Why would the maids look anxious? Don't tell me you chose these maids from your secretarial department. Otherwise, how would they know about the company?"
Mu Qichen looked at Sheng Yan for a while and smiled helplessly and compromising. "Little Yan, sometimes it's not good to be too smart."
"Being smart may not be a good thing, but being stupid must be a bad thing." Sheng Yan looked up and looked at Mu Qichen seriously. "Mu Qichen, I don't want to be hidden."
If it was really something related to the company and if it had nothing to do with her, Sheng Yan believed that Mu Qichen would not avoid talking about it. Divide.
"Alright." Mu Qichen finally compromised, "It's my mother. She's sick and needs me to go back."
Sheng Yan's pupils slightly propped up as she was somewhat stunned.
Wan Liwan had even given her a bird's nest yesterday, and she was sick today?
Ten minutes later, Mu Qichen left the Drifting Water Pavilion.
The maid accompanied Sheng Yan. She originally guessed that Sheng Yan would follow him back to the Mu Family's Old Residence. After all, Sheng Yan had already taken the initiative to ask. Moreover, she could see that... Although Miss Sheng did not like Madam Mu, she did not have any ill intentions towards Madam Mu in her heart.
The servants and bodyguards discussed privately, saying that Sheng Yan was magnanimous. If it was another woman with the future of the Mu family, Young Master or the little princess, in her womb, with Mu Qichen backing her up, she would have long gone to provoke Wan Liwan. How could she obediently raise an infant in the shallow water pavilion? She would keep a low profile and not act like a demon.
"Miss Sheng, Madam Mu accidentally fell yesterday. In the evening when she was taking a walk, she accidentally fell into a small pond and had a fever at night. The family doctor had gone to see her, but the fever had not subsided. Someone from Old Residence called, saying that Madam Mu had been calling Young Master Mu's name while unconscious. " The maid took the initiative to explain.
Sheng Yan accurately grasped the key." Wrestling, misstep, and then fever. Three moves in a row. Madam Mu's luck is a little too bad. "
The maid,... "" It seemed like it was a little too much of a coincidence.
After Sheng Yan's reminder, the maid immediately realized that Wan Liwan calling Mu Qichen back this time was most likely a scheme.
Sheng Yan indeed felt that it was a scheme.
Other than being too coincidental, there was another thing. Wan Liwan had lived in Old Residence for many years. Could it be that she would still lose her footing by the small pond? It was not like she was not familiar with the road, and no one dared to push her down.
Furthermore, Wan Liwan was used to carrying maids with her. The maids did not eat for free, so why would they let her fall into the water?
It was just that Sheng Yan could not figure out Wan Liwan's motive for doing so. After all, Wan Liwan was Mu Qichen's mother. If she wanted to see Mu Qichen, she would call him back with a phone call. Why would she need to use such a method?
Mu Qichen had been gone for a day. At night, he called the Drifting Water Pavilion saying that there was no need to wait for him for dinner.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Mu Qichen still had not returned.2
Sheng Yan first went upstairs and lay on the bed. She received a call from Mu Qichen.
"Are you ready to sleep?" The man's voice came from the receiver.
Sheng Yan covered herself with the blanket and only left a pair of slender arms outside the blanket. Actually, she was already prepared to sleep but when she opened her mouth, she said, "No, I'm watching a TV Series."
"Little Yan, you should prepare to sleep." Mu Qichen connived and said helplessly. There was a trace of longing in his voice, "I won't be able to come back tonight. Be good and wake up tomorrow to play."
