96: C96 Cold Rice and Cold Dishes

C96 Cold Rice and Cold Dishes

Gu Zijin sent Qin Muxuan to the office. Qin Muxuan was worried that there would be reporters waiting at the office for what happened yesterday, but when the car drove to the office, there were no reporters. Qin Muxuan heaved a sigh of relief.

Gu Zijin looked at Qin Muxuan.

"Call me when you get off work."

Qin Muxuan nodded and walked into the office. She saw a champagne car parked behind the shade and was stunned. Qin Rann was answering the phone and did not enter the office. Qin Muxuan and Gu Zijin saw what they did.

Qin Muxuan's expression was slightly unnatural. After all, when Qin Rann first entered the office, she answered perfunctorily when Qin Rann asked about family relations. Although the media had exposed her relationship with Gu Zijin previously, it was somewhat awkward for Qin Rann to bump into her like this. After all, she did not want Qin Rann to look at her with tinted glasses.

Qin Rann got out of the car and greeted Qin Muxuan. Qin Muxuan nodded slightly.

"Gu Zijin and I just..."

"Yes, I only care if your design plan is wrong. If you don't want to talk about other matters, you don't have to tell me."

Qin Muxuan was slightly stunned. She looked gratefully at Qin Rann. Qin Rann and Qin Muxuan walked into the office. Qin Muxuan suddenly thought of something and opened her mouth.

"By the way, she already took away Yan Xiaoyu's information."

Qin Rann was stunned when he heard this name. He did not remember having such a customer, but the office took so many orders every day. It wasn't certain that he missed out on every name.

Deep Qin Rann did not say anything else.

Although the office was a little busy, it was good that it was very fulfilling. Qin Muxuan worked until noon and leaned on the table tiredly to sleep for a while. Qin Rann heard Qin Muxuan's phone ring and saw that Qin Muxuan was not awake yet. He walked over.

The caller ID indicated that Gu Zijin had a big devil behind him. Qin Rann could not help but smile when he saw that Qin Muxuan was a little cute. He reached out and knocked on the table. Qin Muxuan woke up from her sleep and rubbed her eyes. She subconsciously nodded.

"You have a phone."

"Oh."

She picked up the phone and said, "Hello," Gu Zijin said.

"Xiao Bai and I are going to the main family tonight. Do you want to go?"

"The main family?"

Qin Muxuan was stunned and confused. Gu Zijin patiently explained.

"Our Gu family has been extended for several generations, so we have a lot of blood relations. This time, our family wants to see Little White."

The first thing Qin Muxuan thought of when she thought of the Gu family was Old Madame Gu. Usually, it would be difficult to deal with Old Madame Gu alone. If she followed Gu Zijin to the main family to face more people, wouldn't she not be able to eat well all day long and not be able to sleep well? So Qin Muxuan decisively declined and Gu Zijin did not insist.

When she got off work, it was Uncle Chen who came to pick her up. Along the way, Uncle Chen's expression was strange. Usually, Uncle Chen would want to talk to her, but today, he did not know why he was so preoccupied.

When the car arrived at the door of the Gu residence, Qin Muxuan thanked Uncle Chen. Uncle Chen looked at Qin Muxuan worriedly.

"Miss, everyone in the Gu family is not here today. Be careful."

Everyone from the Gu family is not here? Didn't Gu Zijin say that as long as he and Qin Xiaobai were not here? But it was nothing. Uncle Chen seemed to be overly worried. She could take care of herself.

They walked into the Gu family's main gate.

Qin Muxuan reached out and turned on the lights. She saw an unfamiliar mother sitting on the sofa in the living room. She did not look like a pampered person at first glance. However, her expression revealed arrogance and indifference. The mother smiled when she saw Qin Muxuan come in.

"You are Miss Qin, right? I am taking care of Mrs. Gu, Master Gu's person. It is just that I was in the main family a few days ago and have only come back now."

Qin Muxuan subconsciously felt that this old mother was not someone to be trifled with and did not say anything. She smiled and replied a few words before turning around to enter the kitchen. The old mother frowned and directly opened her mouth to speak.

"I made the dishes for you and put them on the table. Do you think I cooked them for you? Master Gu and Mrs. Gu had never disliked it before."1

"I'm sorry. I didn't know you cooked dinner just now."

Qin Muxuan was able to say the word 'sorry' and was already very tolerant. The old mother sat there like a master. Qin Muxuan lifted the table cover and saw the two dishes and soup prepared inside. She went to get a bowl of rice to eat. She had just drunk a mouthful of soup and almost spat it out.

The taste of the soup was like chaff. Qin Muxuan frowned. The dishes beside her did not turn on the light and could not be seen clearly. Now it seemed that the dishes were a little rotten. Qin Muxuan put down her chopsticks and looked at the old mother.

"Auntie, the taste of the soup is not right. Is there something wrong with it?"

"I have been cooking for so many years. What problem can there be? Can it not fit your Miss Qin's appetite?"

Qin Muxuan could now see that this old mother was deliberately making things difficult for her. Her lips lightly pursed.

"I don't know how I have offended you. Who asked you to do this? But I am not a person who holds grudges. Taking a step back will broaden the sea and the sky. Let's pretend that nothing happened tonight."

Qin Muxuan did not intend to say anything in a peaceful manner. Just as she was about to go upstairs, the old mother spoke coldly.

"There are only the two of us in the house right now. Are you going to teach me, this old man, so much housework?"

Qin Muxuan took a light breath and turned around.

"Then you mean I can rest after I finish housework, right?"

"Yes."

Qin Muxuan calmed herself down. She had done a lot of housework in the slums before, so it was not a big deal to do it now. Gu Zijin and the others would come back tomorrow, and her mother would not stay here for long.

The old mother saw Qin Muxuan go along with the flow to do housework, and then she let out a sigh of relief. Old Madame Gu specially called her here to take care of this Miss Qin. When she was in the main family, she had heard Old Madame Gu say that this Qin Muxuan was not only very shrewd but also very shrewd. She used all of her means and even wanted to climb up the high branch of Gu Zijin. She must help Old Madame Gu take care of Qin Muxuan properly and thwart her spirit.

Qin Muxuan had been on shift for a day and her back was already aching after she finished her chores. The old mother sat on the sofa, munching on melon seeds as she watched. From time to time, she would point and point.

"What's going on? That piece of land was cleaned up? And why is it dawdling like this even after washing a bowl?"

"If you don't have the life of a rich lady, don't think about it all day long. How can our young master be someone you can climb up to?"

"Don't think that you can act so tyrannically now that you have a young master. I'm telling you that I don't like your way of doing things."
