Quite awkward

Chapter 139: Visiting the New Home

The next morning.

Yungui.

After class, Mu Yanqing returned to the office and took out the mobile phone that was stuck in the book to take a look. He noticed that there was a missed call record from Linjiang. He didn't pay much attention to it. When he was about to put down the phone, it suddenly vibrated again, so he answered the call.

"Hello, are you Mr. Mu, the owner of Unit C, 17th floor?"

"I am."

"I'm working at Tangwan Yijing Property Management. Yesterday you said you wanted to buy a parking space, right? Could you please come over when you're free?"

Mu Yanqing became confused.

"You must be mistaken. I wasn't in Linjiang yesterday."

When he bought the house, he considered buying a parking space, but Qi Yu did not know how to drive, and when he learned that there were temporary paid parking spaces in the community, he gave up the idea.

The property manager paused and said, "Yesterday you and your sister came to our property management office to get access cards. Afterwards, you said you wanted to buy a parking space, but you were busy at the time, so you asked a few questions and left."

Mu Yanqing only dealt with the agent when buying the house, and all subsequent matters were handed over to his assistant. The property management may have known that the house was for the owner's sister, and saw a man appear next to Qi Yu, so they mistakenly thought that the man was him.

"That person yesterday wasn't me. Could his last name also be Mu?"

"I didn't ask that, but your sister calls him brother."

"Okay, I understand. I'm not considering buying a parking space for the time being. Thank you for your hard work."

After hanging up the phone, Mu Yanqing lowered his eyes, tapped his fingers on the table, thought for a long time, drank a sip of warm tea, and sent a message to Qi Yu.

Mu Yanqing: [Ayu, did Chen An help you move yesterday?]

Around ten o'clock last night, he spoke to Qi Yu on the phone for more than a minute. He only knew that she had moved into her new home, but he didn't know that anyone had helped her during the move.

……

Linjiang.

After getting up at eight o'clock, Qi Yu started packing the luggage she had moved in yesterday. She rolled up her sleeves and mopped the floor of the whole house. She was so tired that her back and waist ached and she lay on the sofa to rest. After reading the message from her eldest brother on her mobile phone, she couldn't help but feel nervous.

After thinking about it, she decided to be honest about the situation.

Qi Yu: [Yes, my second brother took the initiative to hire some movers to help me move, and we even had a meal together.]

After dinner yesterday, Mu Chenan sent Qi Yu downstairs of the community and then left.

Mu Yanqing: [He didn’t say anything to you, did he?]

Qi Yu wanted to hide something this time and didn't tell the truth.

Qi Yu: [No.]

It took at least a few minutes for the other party to respond.

Mu Yanqing: [I have to go back to Linjiang this weekend for something. I'll come visit your new home then.]

Qi Yu: [Okay, welcome to our meeting, big brother.]

After finishing the chat, Qi Yu glanced at the time on his phone screen. There were still four days until the weekend.

-

Qi Yu hired a professional cleaner to help her clean the apartment she had lived in before, and asked Xu Yan to check out, and the two had a brief reunion.

After that, she stayed at home for two days, and suddenly received a magazine shooting job, which included four sets of looks and took two full days to complete.

Saturday came in a flash. Qi Yu slept until she woke up naturally. She turned over and checked her phone. She received a message from her elder brother that he had landed in Linjiang. He said he had to go to the company first and would come to see her later.

Mushi Group.

Mu Chenan walked out of the meeting room. After Chen Yang finished talking about work, he mentioned that another President Mu had returned to the company and was now inspecting work in the Finance Department.

His eyebrows moved slightly, and he nodded to indicate that he understood. Then he walked straight into his office. After a while, he took his coat and went out again to attend the business entertainment at noon.

Mu Yanqing sat in the office of the head of the finance department, read the report, pointed out many problems, and carefully told the other party reasonable solutions. He was busy until the end of the working time before leaving.

The two brothers did not meet in the company that day.

……

Qi Yu ran downstairs to meet Mu Yanqing. The two decided to cook for the first time in their new home, so they made an appointment in advance to meet outside the community, and then went to the supermarket together to buy ingredients.

Mu Chenan had just parked his car opposite the Tangwan Yijing residential complex when he saw two familiar figures walking towards him side by side.

Qi Yu was wearing a mask, and her beautiful eyes were curved into crescent shapes, while Mu Yanqing had a gentle smile on his face. He listened to her patiently and occasionally interjected a few words in response.

A line of sight followed closely until they saw Qi Yu and Mu Yanqing crossing the road side by side and walking down the stairs leading to the supermarket on the underground first floor.

Muchen sat quietly in the car, but his mind could clearly picture the scene of them shopping together in the supermarket, and he suddenly felt a little upset.

Ever since that dinner, he hadn't taken the initiative to look for Qi Yu again. It wasn't just because he was busy with work, but more because he never got the response he wanted from her, and he felt powerless, so he didn't take the next step.

His elder brother's unexpected return to Linjiang aroused his vigilance, so he decided to drive to the community where Qi Yu lived to take a look. Unexpectedly, he ran into the two of them going out together.

The initial unhappiness quickly turned into irritability. Mu Chenan was now alone in the car, and his mood became worse. A pair of dark eyes on his handsome face flashed with a gloomy dark color.

A few minutes later, he got out of the car with a cigarette and a lighter, walked to a street light, lit it, and looked sideways in the direction of the supermarket exit.

Night falls and a cold wind blows.

The entrance of the underground supermarket is still bustling, with a row of stalls trying to attract passers-by in their own way to sell their products.

Mu Chenan squinted and saw a guy in Santa Claus costume selling condoms.

The cigarette at his fingertips burned slowly. He didn't want to smoke anymore, so he turned around, put it out, and threw it into the trash can beside him.

I originally wanted to go back to the car, but I unconsciously glanced towards the supermarket entrance. My eyes were fixed and I couldn't move my feet.

Mu Yanqing appeared alone, holding shopping bags full of things in both hands, as if he had stopped to communicate with the Santa Claus salesman.

Although Mu Chenan couldn't see the expressions on the two people's faces, they seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation.

The salesman showed the product to Mu Yanqing, said something with a smile, and finally stuffed it into his shopping bag enthusiastically, as if it was a gift.

At this time, Qi Yu came over holding an ice cream. Mu Yanqing nodded goodbye to the salesman, and the two walked together tacitly and prepared to go home.
