Chapter 8 The Mysterious Old Man Reappears

"Ah?" Lin Mu was surprised.

Seeing Lin Mu showing a slightly silly expression, Chen Mengying raised the corner of her mouth slightly and explained: "When my father was young, he was so poor that he couldn't even eat a few meals. After my mother gave birth to me, life became very different. To make matters worse, my mother couldn't bear this kind of life, so she left my father and me, who was not yet one year old, and married a rich man from out of town."

"After that, my mother never appeared again, and all the photos related to my mother were destroyed by my father. Until now, I don't even know what my mother looks like."

After saying that, Chen Mengying showed a self-deprecating smile, as if she was laughing at her bumpy and boring life.

Lin Mu never expected the situation before him. After thinking about it, he could only say "Sorry" to Chen Mengying.

The two were silent for a while. Chen Mengying saw that it would be boring to continue like this, so she said: "I have said so much, you can also talk about yourself."

After saying that, Chen Mengying leaned forward, lying on the table with one hand on her face, looking at Lin Mu expectantly.

"I?"

Lin Mu wondered: "What can I say? I am a poor kid from the mountains. I can't study well, I have no special skills, I have no money, no power, and I won't attract anyone's attention even if I am thrown into the crowd."

"Although you have nothing, don't you still have a wife?" Chen Mengying pursed her lips and smiled.

"Forehead."

Looking at Chen Mengying's smiling face, Lin Mu sighed helplessly: "Don't mention it, my wife was betrothed to me by the village chief just because I have a college degree and am a knowledgeable person in the village. Otherwise, I am now I guess he’s still a single guy that no one wants.”

After listening to Lin Mu's words, a touch of sadness appeared on Chen Mengying's face, and she replied: "That's better than me. Look at me, I'm 28 and still single. Even my first kiss was given two hours ago. you."

"No way? Was that really your first kiss?" Lin Mu looked surprised.

Chen Mengying smiled lightly and said: "I have never told a lie to you."

"Then Sister Mengying, why are you doing this to me? It seems that we just met for the first time today." Lin Mu was a little confused.

"As I said, I've fallen in love with you, so I'll volunteer to be your concubine, can't I?"

"..."

At one o'clock at noon, the two ended their chat and left the coffee shop. Chen Mengying had to go to work to deal with company matters, and Lin Mu had to go home.

Originally, Lin Mu planned to stay and get familiar with the company, but Chen Mengying said that he would not officially go to work until tomorrow, so Lin Mu had no choice but to go home.

Just like when he came here, Lin Mu did not take a car when he went home, but chose to walk. However, due to the compactness of his new suit, he could no longer run as he did when he came in the morning.

In front of the traffic light on the sidewalk, the red light turned on again blocking the progress of the forest trees. Recalling everything that happened today, I just felt like a dream. I turned around and looked at the tall building behind me. On the top of the building, four unusually eye-catching people The big characters caught Lin Mu's eyes.

Fantasy Entertainment.

This is the name of the company where Lin Mu joined.

What Lin Mu didn't know was that after he left the building, Chen Mengying returned to the cafe on the 6th floor of the building alone. She stood in front of the window and quietly looked at Lin Mu waiting at the traffic light. Her eyes flashed and she didn't know what she was thinking. something.

"You seem a little absent-minded."

Quietly, a slightly aged voice came into Chen Mengying's ears. Looking in the direction of the sound, she saw an old man in white clothes, white hair, white eyebrows and white beard standing beside her, looking at Chen Mengying with a faint smile on her face.

If Lin Mu were here, he would definitely be frightened and speechless, because the old man in front of him was the mysterious old man he met two nights ago.

The sudden appearance of the old man did not make Chen Mengying look surprised. She glanced at the old man lightly and said in a low voice: "Don't you know everything? Why are you asking me what to do?"

"Haha." The old man smiled and said, "Although I know everything, some things will change without knowing it."

"What about him?"

Chen Mengying turned her head and glanced at Lin Mu walking on the sidewalk and asked: "Did you know in advance that he would come to the company and succeed in the interview, or is everything different from what you thought?"

"He." The old man also turned to look at Lin Mu and said lightly: "I can't see through it."

"You are so powerful, how can you not see through him?" Chen Mengying was surprised.

The old man pursed his lips and smiled: "There are many things that cannot be seen through. He just happens to be one of them."

After speaking, he turned to look at Chen Mengying and said: "He is the protagonist of the story. How the story will develop is entirely up to him. If you choose the right one, he will be the rule. If you choose the wrong one, you will be doomed."

After saying that, the old man didn't give Chen Mengying a chance to speak, and disappeared directly from Chen Mengying's eyes, without knowing where to go.

"Choice?"

Looking at the place where the old man stood just now, Chen Mengying's thoughts were wandering, and she unknowingly remembered what the old man said when she met the old man two days ago: "You are destined to die, and the only one who can resolve this disaster is your destiny."

If you want to find this person, you only need to post a job fair in two days. No matter how you test yourself, there will be one person left, and this person is your destined person. When the time comes, you will be

It’s up to you to make your own choice.”

At first, Chen Mengying didn't believe what the old man said. After all, the old man was like a magic stick. But when the old man told things that would never be known to outsiders, Chen Mengying had to believe that this old man was very special.

With the mentality of giving it a try, Chen Mengying issued a recruitment announcement, and the result was that Lin Mu stayed.

Facing this boy who was younger than herself and looked very ordinary, Chen Mengying was confused. She didn't know whether she should choose this person. If this person was really her destined person as the old man said, then what should she do?

How to do it?

In the end, she made her own choice. As for the result of this choice, she can only wait for time to reveal it.



On an unknown road, Lin Mu was walking towards home under the warm sun. Because of the obstruction of his slim-fitting suit, he could not let go. He had not reached home after walking for more than three hours.

The company is in the city center, and Lin Mu's home in the city is in a slum area. The two are 20 kilometers apart. Even if Lin Mu speeds up his pace, it will still take a long time to get home.

Unknowingly, Lin Mu came to a deserted billboard. This place was exactly where he met the mysterious old man two nights ago.

Looking at the billboard in front of him, Lin Mu unconsciously thought of what happened when he met the old man. He was confused as to why the old man knew that he would succeed in interviewing at Fantasy Entertainment Company.

Could it be that this old man can predict the future?
