Chapter 54 I Will Give You A Home
But Mu Shaoting still didn't let her go, "If it's not because of losing your temper, then why do you insist on saying that you made a mistake when you called me?"

"I... I'm afraid you're busy..."

"I'm on a business trip during this time."

He told the truth that he and Leo had indeed gone to the infrastructure project area of ​​the water park for field inspection. Although it was not too far from the urban area, he had never been back.

"Oh……"

Jiang Qingqian responded in a low voice.

He said that he was on a business trip, but the simplest words made her heart burn.

It sounds like he took the initiative to explain his whereabouts to her!
"I'm not here. Except for making a mistake today, you never thought of calling me for such a long time?"

"I...you didn't call me either." When she blurted out this sentence, her heart was like a mirror, and the distance that was deliberately opened due to panic suddenly came closer.

Mu Shaoting looked at her awkward look, and chuckled lightly, "So, I did something wrong? All right! Just treat it as my fault, then do you want to forgive me?"

Jiang Qing pursed his lips slightly, acquiescing.

There is a joy in my heart, which is bursting out uncontrollably.

Her emotions were still affected by him.

After the two came out of the restaurant, Jiang Qingqian thought that he was going to take her home, but when they got in the car, they realized that it was not the direction for her to go home at all.

Looking at the not-so-familiar scenery outside the car window, before he could ask the phrase "Where are you taking me?", Mu Shaoting took the initiative and said, "Take you to a place first."

"Where to go?"

"You will know when you arrive..."

He pretended to be mysterious, but her heart was beating like thunder.

Secretly paying attention to the road conditions, wanting to see if this road can lead to the Huading apartment where he lives...

When Mu Shaoting saw her clutching her seat belt and looking extremely disturbed, he couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, I won't sell you, and I won't take you to a secluded place to rape and then kill you."

Uh……

Jiang Qing was slightly embarrassed.

She didn't even think about what he said.

What she was thinking about was what might happen between a lonely man and a widow in the middle of the night.

Obviously, she was thinking too much.

Just because he didn't take her home doesn't mean he's going to take her back to his home.

After driving for about half an hour, the car finally arrived at the destination.

City B happened to have a river flowing through the center of the city, dividing the entire urban area into north and south halves. The land along the river has long been contracted by developers, and residential buildings, commercial areas, and leisure centers have been built.

However, there is only a dead corner in the lower reaches of Jiangbei.

It faces the river in front and is surrounded by mountains in the back, so the traffic is extremely inconvenient.

However, all the inconveniences are limited to the past. In recent years, not only the mountain wall has been dug through to expand the road, but also the road around the mountain has been built. Once the traffic bottleneck is resolved, this "dead spot" will become hot.

Jiang Qingqian has also heard about it for a long time. Due to the special geographical conditions, it can protect privacy very well, so Jiangbei has been developed into a villa area for the rich with every inch of land and gold.

If you want to settle down here, besides having money, what you need more is contacts.

The landscaping here has not been done yet, and the houses have been sold out.

The entire villa area is still in the renovation stage, so once night falls, compared to the bright lights on the other side of the river, this place looks extraordinarily deserted.

Did you agree to take her to a secluded place?

After getting out of the car, he felt that the surrounding temperature was obviously a few degrees lower than the downtown area. Seeing the darkness everywhere, Jiang Qingqian subconsciously grabbed Mu Shaoting's cuff.

"Hey, here..."

He held her hand tightly in his palm, "We'll be there soon." He led her straight to one of the villas, entered his fingerprints and opened the door.

Jiang Qingqian understood now, and was more than a little surprised.

"This... is this your house?"

"Correct!"

"When did you buy it?"

"About two years ago, when this place was just being developed."

Jiang Qingqian was even more shocked, "But, weren't you still in the United States at that time?"

Mu Shaoting said: "Yes, I was in the United States, and I bought this villa with the first pot of gold I earned in my life. At that time, I knew that I would come back sooner or later. There are too many things here that I can't let go of. people and things..."

When he said 'I can't let go', I don't know whether it was intentional or not, his eyes just fell on her face.

Jiang Qingqian's heart beat out of rhythm again, and she instinctively wanted to escape, but he pulled her back to her side, leaving her nowhere to escape.

"Mu Shaoting..."

"I'll show you around, you need to write down the layout here."

This is an independent villa with a garden and a swimming pool, covering an area of ​​over [-] square meters. Under the leadership of Mu Shaoting, Jiang Qingqian went from the first floor to the third floor, and even visited every bathroom. The last one was the top floor. small attic.

The villas here are built along the river all the way to the mountainside. Mu Shaoting's building is located on a higher terrain. From this angle, you can almost have a panoramic view of most of the city.

At night, thousands of households light up their lights, which is another scene of prosperity.

Jiang Qingqian has a feeling of being too cold at a high place.

"What did you bring me here for?"

Mu Shaoting answered irrelevantly, "Did you remember every place I showed you just now?"

"Ah? Remember..." Jiang Qingqian obviously ignored his previous words. All she could think about was his intention for bringing her here, so she didn't have the mood to remember the layout of the house.

She was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

"Because the interior of the house needs renovation and I need an interior designer, I think you are the best candidate."

"Ah?" Jiang Qingqian guessed a lot, but he didn't expect that this was his purpose.

She didn't remember anything else, but she could tell with a few casual glances that the exterior of the entire villa complex had been installed, but the interior was still only rough-painted with white walls.

Such a big house, let her design it?
She hurriedly said, "How can I do it? If I mess it up, wouldn't it be a pity for such a beautiful house? If you want to decorate it, you should consult a professional designer..."

"Aren't you a professional?"

"Me?" He was ashamed to say it, and Jiang Qingqian was almost embarrassed, "I have returned almost all the things I learned in college to the teacher, and I haven't done related work for so many years."

"It's okay, I trust you."

"But……"

"It's nothing to worry about. I did you a big favor when your uncle was going to have an operation. You won't even be willing to do me such a small favor now, will you?"

He had already said so much, what else could Jiang Qingqian say.

His help to her, let alone designing a villa, it would not be an exaggeration to make her feel ashamed.

If this is considered reciprocal, maybe she can feel at ease.

"Then... I'll try it! But it's too late at night, and I can't see it clearly. I'll take another time to come and have a look. What style do you want to pretend to be?"

"It doesn't matter, it depends on your preference."

"what?"

"I said, I don't have any requirements, as long as you like it."

"..."

Jiang Qingqian was stunned for a moment, she raised her head to meet his eyes, but saw that he didn't dodge, and there was no sign of joking in his eyes at all.

He was always like this, which made her misunderstand again.

"This is your house, why should I like it, what's the use of my liking..."

"If it's useful?" He suddenly took a step in front of her and asked very seriously, "Then tell me, do you like it?"

Jiang Qingqian took half a step back, suddenly afraid of his pressing questions.

She smirked dryly, still not daring to look directly, "Who doesn't like a big villa..."

"I don't care about others, I only care about whether you like it or not."

He took another step, and their bodies were almost touching each other. Jiang Qingqian wanted to back up, but unexpectedly there was already a solid wall behind her. When she leaned back, she bumped into the switch next to the window.

After a snap, the entire attic was darkened.

Both of them were taken aback.

Mu Shaoting reached out to turn on the light, but Jiang Qingqian stopped him, "Don't turn it on!"

His hand paused, but he followed her.

When the eyes can't see, the other senses become particularly sensitive, and the breathing of the two alternates, entangled and ambiguous.

Jiang Qingqian's hands rested on his chest, she couldn't see it, but she still raised her head slightly, as if she could see through his deep and complicated eyes.

"Don't turn on the light! Mu Shaoting, I want to ask you a question."

After finishing speaking, she heard his Adam's apple rolling, "What?"

"Are you serious?"

"..."

"You know what I'm talking about...I can also see that you should have hated me when you first came back, but after all your behaviors, you said you were trying to please me, but why are you...I'm nothing anymore A little girl who doesn’t understand anymore, so I never dare to think that we can go back to the past. I have been divorced and had children, and I am not good enough for you! I know these things, and you know them too, but you still...so Tell me, are you serious about treating me like this?"

She finally asked these words that had been hovering in her heart for a long time.

"What do you think?"

He asked a question back, and threw the question back to her with all his might.

Jiang Qingqian fully demonstrated her stubbornness at this time, "I'm already in a mess, why do I think it's not important anymore, I just want to hear your answer."

"Actually, my answer is not important..."

"..."

"Most sweet words are sincere the moment they are spoken, but not all promises can become reality, otherwise there would be no five years of separation between you and me, so it really doesn't matter what you say, I don't even believe what I can say with my mouth. The answer you want is not with me, but in your heart, you have to ask yourself..."

He grabbed her hand, moved to the position of the left atrium, and pressed it heavily.

"Just ask yourself, do you believe I'm serious?"

Believe it?
Jiang Qing's breath stagnates.

But he had already turned her body, let her look out the window through the window, and said: "Do you still remember that winter when we took a walk on the riverside on the opposite bank? You said you like the night view of the riverside the most. Every night When night comes, seeing thousands of brightly lit houses makes me feel so warm, even if I can’t own it, it’s nice to imagine having a home of my own among so many lights.”

"..."

"At that time, I promise you that I will give you a home here."
