During breakfast today, all three little ones noticed something strange.
Nuan Nuan quietly conveyed the news to An An and asked him in a low voice: "Do you feel that Mommy seems a little strange today?"
Not only is their mommy strange, but their daddy also seems to have something wrong.
Daddy used to have a sullen face when eating breakfast, but today he seems to be in a particularly good mood.
He Zicheng didn't know that the two brothers and sisters around him were twisting and turning.
He felt strange. Seeing that something was wrong with Mu Ning Xi's face, he couldn't help but asked with concern: "Beautiful aunt, do you have a cold? Why are your cheeks red? Do you want to take your temperature?"
With a simple sentence, Mu Ningxi instantly became the focus of the dinner table.
She now wished she could dig a hole in the ground and bury herself.
She smiled awkwardly and said gently to He Zicheng: "Auntie, it's okay, but the porridge is a bit hot. I'm in a hurry to go to work, so some food needs to be heated quickly."
Fortunately, He Zicheng didn't ask any more questions, otherwise Mu Ningxi wouldn't know how to explain.
Mu Ningxi breathed a sigh of relief, and when she raised her head, she met He Tingchen's deep eyes again.
The flush that had just subsided on his face suddenly came back again.
She quickly finished the breakfast in the bowl, and then hurriedly left the table.
Looking at her quickly leaving, He Zicheng sighed: "It's so hard for my beautiful aunt, she even has to rush to have breakfast."
When the two Mu brothers and sisters heard He Zicheng's words, they lowered their heads silently and sighed.
He Zicheng is really simple.
…
Mu Ningxi never stopped after entering the research institute, and a lot of work was waiting for her to come out.
By the time she got up to take a rest, it was already lunch time.
When Mu Ningxi came out of the office, Rong Yuxi greeted her with a smile.
"I thought you were going to wait until dawn!"
Mu Ningxi responded with a wry smile: "I'm not a god, I have to eat and drink."
After hearing her complaint, Rong Yuxi said generously: "Let's go, I'll treat you to lunch."
Mu Ningxi was not polite. We are all colleagues, and it is common for us to have lunch together: "Wait while I get off and get a mobile phone."
In order to concentrate on her work, Mu Ningxi used to throw her mobile phone into the drawer.
If there was really something urgent to come to her, Xiao Lu and the others would have a way to notify her, so she was not worried about the emergency.
After getting the phone, Mu Ningxi glanced at it and found that there were more than a dozen missed calls on it.
These calls are all from the same number.
Seeing her in a daze, Rong Yuxi took the initiative to step forward and ask about the situation.
"Why? Aren't you going to leave?"
Mu Ningxi shook her head helplessly: "You go ahead. I have a temporary situation here that needs to be dealt with urgently."
Rong Yuxi didn't force it, he now had some understanding of Mu Ningxi's temperament.
He clearly knew that Mu Ningxi was not being polite, so he took the initiative to leave.
After the others left, Mu Ningxi was about to call back, but the other party took a step forward and called directly.
Mu Ningxi opened the phone, put it to her ear.
A middle-aged woman's urgent voice came from the other end of the phone: "Girl Xi, why are you just answering the phone now? I'm almost dying of anxiety."
Mu Ningxi explained calmly, "Third Aunt, my company has regulations that you cannot answer calls during working hours, so I locked the office."
After hearing her explanation, the third aunt no longer struggled, but said in a very anxious tone: "Come back quickly, I have something to ask you."
Before Mu Ningxi could ask what was going on, the other party hung up the phone eagerly.
The third aunt once saved her grandma's life. When her grandma was sick, this aunt was always busy taking care of her.
She remembers some kindness and naturally has to repay it.
Since the third aunt asked her to go back, she would take a leave in the afternoon and go back.
