Mu Nianwan nodded and glanced at the open room, but felt very empty inside.

Uncle Ning obviously didn't want to communicate with her anymore after explaining what he had to explain. He nodded, took a step back and closed the door.

Mu Nianwan felt a little more at ease as she was the only one in the huge space.

She had just sat down when the phone rang.

It was Huo Jinshen calling.

Mu Nianwan answered the call.

His tone was natural and soft, "Why are you calling at this time?"

It should be late at night in Sijiu City at this time.

Hearing her soft tone, the anger that had been accumulated due to worry felt like it was being suppressed by a soft hand, unable to be vented.

"You finally answered the phone? Why can't you get through the phone all day today?"

No reply after sending messages.

Mu Nianwan found an excuse: "I don't know how my phone changed the flight mode. I just found out."

Even if he didn't face her, lying still made Mu Nianwan a little uneasy.

Fortunately, Huo Jinshen was now focused on her safety and didn't notice anything.

"Why are you still up so late?" Huo Jinshen thought she was still in Sijiu City. He glanced at the night and asked softly.

Once you tell a lie, you need to tell countless lies to cover it up.

Mu Nianwan also looked at the sky.

The sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly, but nothing could warm her heart as much as the man's voice of concern on the other end of the phone.

"We were just talking about a job." Mu Nianwan replied softly.

Huo Jin raised his eyebrows: "Talk about work so late? With Nuan Yan?"

Huo Jinshen never interfered too much in her work matters, but the two of them seemed to have never seen her talking about work late into the night for so long, so they were a little curious.

"No. With a foreign film and television company." Mu Nianwan replied in a low voice, leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window.

This is the reason discussed with Nuan Yan early in the morning.

Six months ago, a foreign film and television company actually took a fancy to one of her works and was interested in signing the copyright.

But after all, there are differences between shooting abroad and in China.

They are completely different in terms of aesthetics and other aspects, and story adaptations are sometimes very taboo about magical changes.

Mu Nianwan was very worried that signing with this company would affect her work, so she had been considering it.

But this foreign film and television company seems to like her work very much, and has been keeping it for half a year. Even a month ago, their boss came directly to Sijiu City, just to meet with Mu Nianwan to discuss the matter.

Mu Nianwan met with him once, and the other party promised and guaranteed that he would adapt it on the basis of respecting the original work.

If she is still worried, you can even let her participate in the adaptation.

If her works can be exported abroad, she will naturally be happy.

What's more, at this time, it also gave her a perfect reason to leave Sijiu City if Huo Jinshen found out.

Of course, she hoped that she would have settled the matter with Yaoyao and returned to him before Huo Jinshen noticed.

If not...

"What film and television company? You have a good taste." Huo Jin's thin lips curled up slightly, and his generous praise made Mu Nianwan's slightly depressed mood brighten a lot.

He was not praising the film and television company, he was clearly praising her.

She smiled softly: "I think so too, so because the other party is so discerning, I specially set aside time to negotiate with him late at night."

The low laughter reached the bottom of his ears through the radio, making Mu Nianwan's heart tingle.

"Then what's the result?"

Mu Nianwan pretended to be mysterious and pondered for a moment, then said: "We are still negotiating. If nothing happens, we should sign a contract."

Hearing what she said, Huo Jinshen knew that the conditions proposed by the other party should be good.

He didn't interfere with anyone, he just said: "As for the contract, you can contact Chengjun."

"Is it possible that he is overqualified and underqualified?" Mu Nianwan teased.

If Qi Chengjun knew that someone asked him to handle a copyright contract with such a dignified attitude, he would probably vomit blood.

"It would be an honor for him to help the famous Dejialan handle the contract."

Mu Nianwan chuckled, and all the uneasiness that came here seemed to gradually dissipate as she chatted with the man.

She relaxed and leaned against the fence, bent her eyes, and whispered: "Huo Jinshen, I miss you."

Huo Jin's brows were deeply focused, even in the dark night. He was silent for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "I'll go find you now."

Then Mu Nianwan heard footsteps.

"No." She stopped him urgently.

Huo Jin seemed to have stopped walking, and only the man's deep breathing could be heard in his ears.

Mu Nianwan pursed her lips, knowing that her attitude had been too strong. She explained softly: "It's too late. What if Dingdang wakes up in the middle of the night and can't find you?"

"And I'm going to have a rest soon."

Huo Jinshen was just impulsive and calmed down after being persuaded by her.

He held the cigarette in his hand, still a little irritable inside, but his tone was gentle, "Then you go to bed early and don't work too late. If you need anything, you can come to me."

"Okay." Mu Nianwan responded obediently.

There was silence for a moment, but both of them were reluctant to end the phone call. But after all, it was too late, and Huo Jin Shenrao could only take the initiative to mention it no matter how reluctant he was.

"Go and rest." Huo Jinshen said quietly.

"Yeah." Mu Nianwan said softly, "You should go and rest quickly."

"good."

With the phone placed to his ear, Huo Jinshen was not in a hurry to put it down, waiting for her to finish first.

Mu Nianwan seemed to understand his thoughts.

With his eyebrows lowered, he touched the car slowly driving in from the gate of the manor.

She pursed her lips and said, "Husband, I love you."

At this moment, some words just blurted out.

Before Huo Jinshen could react, Mu Nianwan decisively cut off the call.

That "I love you" sound was like a bomb suddenly dropped on Huo Jin's peaceful heart.

She rarely said such words.

Even when her relationship was at its best, she never did.

Not to mention everything that happened later.

When he came to his senses and wanted to say something, there was only a beep in his ear.

Huo Jinshen impulsively wanted to call it over again, but in the end he was defeated by reason.

He threw the phone aside and pinched his brows, but his thin lips couldn't stop rising.

She really held him in check, but he didn't hate her, and even enjoyed it.

Huo Jinshen looked up at the night sky and shook his head with a silent chuckle.

He must have been poisoned by her.

After ending the call, Mu Nianwan turned around and left the room.

When I was going downstairs, I happened to see Ji Yichen coming in from outside.

He was talking to someone on the phone, and his tone was relaxed and casual.

He spoke English, but he didn't speak much. She could only hear the words technology and intelligence.

However, it can be seen from Ji Yichen's expression that the two of them had a pleasant conversation.

Mu Nianwan stared slightly, and she walked over slowly.
