The man looked to be in his early thirties. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his face, making him look especially refined. The most eye-catching thing was that his nose was especially straight, and his eyes were sharp and spirited.
He sat down across from her, and for a long time he didn't say anything, just watched her as she drank alone.
After a long time, Mu Lele realized that there was a person sitting across from her.
At this moment, she had drunk more than half of the bottle of wine. Her red face was a little blurred. It took her a lot of effort to see the man sitting in front of her.
Mu Lele rubbed her eyes as she said in a somewhat lackadaisical manner, "This …" Old Handsome... What can I do for you? "
"At this point in time... There aren't many people in the coffee shop, so you don't need to put the tables together... Why don't you sit somewhere else? "
As he spoke, he sized up the man with a pair of intoxicated eyes.
"He looks pretty good, but he's pretty old …" Mu Lele dragged her chin as she muttered in a low voice.
She spoke in the smallest voice she could think of, unaware that every word she said was in the ears of the man opposite her.
When the man in the white suit heard her evaluation, his mouth twitched, and then he raised a kind smile and said: "Little girl, do you have any unhappy matters that you need to use to drink to ease your worries? It's not fun to drink alone. How about I accompany you for a drink? "
With one hand holding his chin and the other holding his wine cup, Mu Lele said, "Old man, you're already so old, and you're still thinking that it's not good for the old cow to eat tender grass!"
She said seriously, "Although tender grass is easy to digest, I'm still a tender grass with a background. Uncle, don't think of trying to seduce me, or else my husband will definitely teach you a lesson!"
Being called 'Old Uncle', the man was not angry at all. Instead, he asked with great interest, "So, your husband treats you very well?"
While he was talking with Mu Lele, he had the waiter serve another bottle of wine.
Although Mu Lele's mind was in a mess, when she heard him mention her husband, she immediately said proudly, "Of course, my husband is amazing!"
She happily said, "My husband is the person who treats me the best in this world. Oh right, he is still very powerful. You don't know that a while ago …" At the frontline, there was a lunatic that kidnapped me to an island overseas. My husband used a fighter jet to rescue me! "
"My husband... In my heart, I am an invincible great hero! "
As he said that, a silly smile appeared on Mu Lele's face.
The man elegantly opened the wine cup and poured half a cup for himself. When he was drinking, his eyelids slightly closed, so Mu Lele didn't notice the man's gratified expression.
Mu Lele did not feel any sense of danger from this man. In addition to the fact that this old man was rather handsome, she started to chat with him.
"Uncle, I'll tell you in secret. Ah Xiao's family doesn't like me, but he's able to take me as his wife despite the public's opinion. Say, is he especially good to me?"
The man nodded and said with a smile, "That's pretty good."
"Come, little girl, let's have a drink! Celebrating that you have a good husband! "
Mu Lele made an 'OK' gesture with her hand. Without any hesitation, she lifted up her wine cup and clinked it against the person in front of her, gulping it down in one gulp.
Under the influence of the alcohol, Mu Lele's face was as red as a blazing sun. With her hands behind her face and a smile on her face, she appeared exceptionally obedient.
The man only felt his heart go soft when he saw her doll-like exquisite facial features. The light in his eyes became gentler as he looked at her.
"Le Le, since you have married a good husband, why are you drinking alone here? Do you have any unhappy matters?"
Hearing the man call his name, his originally drunk eyes instantly became alert. "How did you know my name was Le Le?"
She slammed the table and said angrily: "Speak, who are you? I'm telling you, even if you have a conspiracy, I'm not afraid of you! This was a shopping mall … People... There were a lot of people! I'm not afraid of you! "
The man looked at her almond-shaped eyes that were slightly wide open, just like a cat that found her even cuter. He smiled and comforted her, "Not only do I know your name is Le Le, I also know a lot of things about you …"
Seeing that she was about to get excited again, he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I have no ill intentions. I just want to talk to you. You can treat me as a friend."
Mu Lele immediately said disdainfully, "Uncle, are you at your age suitable to be friends with a beautiful girl like me?"
"Don't you know that there is a relationship called 'forget your old friend'? Le Le, if you don't mind, you can call me by my name.
Horn looked at her almost dotingly, as if she were a close junior.
"Uncle Huo, your name is so strange. But forget it, I don't think you're a bad person either. Let's drink another one! "
As he spoke, Mu Lele straightforwardly lifted up her wine cup and gulped down a mouthful.
"We've met officially. Can you tell me what is bothering you?"
Mu Lele was lying on the table, her head resting on her arm as she mentioned this unhappy matter. She had a slightly sad expression on her face.
"It's nothing. I just suddenly realized that time is passing by, but there are some things that have changed a lot. When I looked at something familiar in the past, I now feel a sense of unfamiliarity."
Mu Lele suddenly raised her head and looked seriously at the man in front of her. "Do you know, Uncle Horn? One person I used to think was a flawless gem, but when I observed her through a magnifying glass, she turned out to be an inferior, broken stone. Not only that, this broken stone still wants to hit me! "
She held the cup with a bit of strength. "What's most annoying is that I even felt sad for this broken stone! "Uncle Horn, don't you think this is a bit of a mystery?"
Without a doubt, the 'broken stone' that Mu Lele was referring to right now was the 'Ou Mingyue'.
Horn pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose and said slowly, "Le Le, the broken rock will continue to fall on you. Have you thought about what to do next?"
Mu Lele was a little dispirited. "I don't know …"
"Forget it, let's not talk about these bad thoughts. Let's continue drinking until we're drunk!"
Horn's eyes darkened as he looked at the girl who was drinking. He rubbed the space between his eyebrows, then continued to drink with her.
After drinking an entire bottle of wine, Mu Lele was completely unconscious on the table.
Horn slowly finished the last of the liquid, sighed, stood up, walked over to her, and helped her to her feet.
When the passing attendant saw this scene, he hurriedly stopped her, "Sir, this young miss just said that if she drinks too much, she should be allowed to rest there. If someone wants to take her away, we should help them report to the police!"
Horn froze and looked at the unconscious girl with a funny look on his face.
This silly girl had actually placed her safety in the hands of a waiter. Even though she was vigilant, she was still not that good …
"I'm her uncle. Does she want to drink with me if she doesn't know me?"
The waiter looked him up and down, uncertain.
Horn continued, "I'm her uncle by blood. If you don't believe me, look at how similar we look!"
"I won't hurt her. Why don't I leave you a number?"
The waiter stared at their faces for a long time. Only then did he realize that the two of them had very similar facial features.
"Then mister, you have to take good care of this lady …"
Horn nodded and supported Mu Lele outside.
The waiter muttered, "Why does this uncle and niece look so similar? Their facial features should be that of a father and daughter …"
The sun was setting in the west as night fell.
Li Xiao had waited at home for a whole day and did not see Mu Lele return home. Finally, he could no longer endure and dialed Mu Lele's phone number. Even if she had reestablished their relationship as a mother and daughter, it wouldn't have taken that long to chat with her.2
"Sorry, the number you dialed was turned off …"
When the already anxious Li Xiao heard the voice coming from the other side of the phone, he couldn't sit still any longer.
Was it really like what Kong Ci had said, that Mo Le Le wanted to leave with Ouyang Mingyue?
No, he couldn't bear to part with his happiness. Even if he had to leave, he would definitely negotiate with her!
Could it be that Ouyang Mingyue had his wife locked in the hotel and was not allowed to come back?
Thinking of this, Li Xiao hastily put on his clothes, picked up his car keys and left the house.
This was B City, a place that she was unfamiliar with. What if O'Brien was threatening her, then what should she do?
Li Xiao arrived at the hotel where Ouyang Mingyue was staying as fast as he could, and then rang the doorbell with a vicious aura.
Hearing the doorbell, Ouyang Mingyue frowned for a moment, but she soon let go. The person looking for her at this time must be Le Le.
A smile involuntarily appeared on her face. When she opened the door, she saw who it was and her expression immediately turned cold.
"What are you doing here?"
Li Xiao strode forward and stood at the door, using his sharp eyes to quickly observe the room.
Ouyang Ziyun hurriedly blocked his view, and angrily said, "Officer Li, I do not welcome you here. Please leave, I need to rest!"
After saying that, she wanted to close the door. Li Xiao quickly pulled on the door handle and coldly said, "Where's Le Le Le? Were you detained here? "
"Pleasure?"
Chou Mingyue was stunned for a moment before frowning, "She's not here. I just met her in the morning, what's wrong? Can't you find any more fun? "
She looked at the man in front of her with an extremely dangerous gaze.
Mu Lele was now the biggest bargaining chip in the Norman family's inheritance. If anything happened to this man, she would definitely kill him!
Li Xiao coldly asked, "Is she really not here?"
Ouyang Yue laughed. "Li Xiao, are you even a man? You don't even have the nerve to ask me for someone when you can't even protect your own wife? "
"I advise you to leave Leisure as soon as possible! "Why don't I show you!"
After Li Xiao confirmed that Mu Lele was really not here, he apologized in a low voice and left in large strides.
He quickly called the people close to him to help him search for her. Her identity was very sensitive right now, and she wasn't suitable for a large scale search. She could only do it in secret.
What he did not expect was that they had not found Mu Lele's whereabouts until the early hours of the morning.
