King’s Landing: The Proud Empress

Chapter 488: Matching of Mu Key

  Chapter 488 Mu Yao's matchmaking

  Hearing this, Mu Yao was stunned, looked Junli up and down, and then said, "Could it be that sister Li is also in business?"

  Jun Li pursed his lips and chuckled, "Why, it doesn't look like it?"

   After finishing speaking, Mu Yao smiled and said, "It's really not like that. Sister Li, you look more like a high-ranking person.

  Jun Li was amused by these words, and said with a smile, "Superior person? Sister Mu means the superior person who manages some money?"

  Mu Yao was slightly stunned, and then realized that what he said just now was very inappropriate, and hurriedly said with a smile, "Sister Li said..."

   Saying that, Mu Yao greeted Jun and left the study. After tea and snacks were prepared, Mu Yao then ordered someone to let Mu Xiuzhu wait in the gazebo in the backyard.

  After the two sat down, Mu Yao said, "I wonder what kind of business Sister Li wants to discuss with Sister?"

  Hearing this, Jun Li pursed his lips and smiled lightly, with seriousness in his eyes.

  —

   When the two came out of the study, it was already an hour later. Mu Yao warmly invited Junli to have lunch in Mu's residence. Junli didn't refuse either, and agreed with a smile.

  Mu Yao led Junli all the way to the gazebo in the backyard, where Mu Xiuzhu, who was dressed in light blue clothes, was sitting quietly in a wheelchair, with cold and indifferent eyes.

  Seeing this, Mu Yao hurriedly stepped forward, and said with concern, "Has Xiuzhu been waiting for a long time?"

  Hearing this, Mu Xiuzhu's eyes fell on Junli, and he quickly retracted them, shaking his head slightly at Mu Yao.

  Mu Yao ordered people to prepare lunch, turned to Jun Li and said with a smile, "The scenery here is nice, so we can eat here, how does Sister Li think?"

  Jun Li nodded, with a smile on his lips.

  The tea was quickly served by the servants, Mu Yao pulled Jun Li and chatted with each other, while Mu Xiuzhu was arranged between the two intentionally or unintentionally, without speaking. Just occasionally pour tea for the two of them.

   After a while, Mu Yao looked up at the sky, frowned and said, "Why hasn't the food been delivered yet?"

After finishing speaking, he smiled apologetically at Jun Li, "Sister Li is laughing, my cook has always been lazy and cooks very slowly. I actually asked Sister Li to wait here, and my sister will go to the kitchen to remind me. "

   After finishing speaking, he stood up, looked at Mu Xiuzhu and said, "Xiuzhu, please stay here for my sister and accompany my sister Li, my sister goes to the kitchen to have a look."

   After finishing speaking, without waiting for the two to answer, he took all the servants around the gazebo with him, and headed towards the kitchen in a mighty manner.

  Seeing this, Junli raised his eyebrows slightly, this Mu Yao!

   To find such a flawed excuse, what kind of lazy cook? What big family cook would be lazy? Not to mention a big family, even a small rich family, the cook would not dare to be lazy and not serve food.

   What's more, where does she need to go to the kitchen in person? When he went there, he actually took all the servants away. This is Sima Zhaozhi's heart, and everyone knows it.

  Turning his head to look at Mu Xiuzhu, who was clear and cold, only to see that he was raising his eyes, looking at her with a faint and complicated look.

   "My sister has always been like this, please don't mind, Miss Mu."

  Jun Li raised his eyebrows, knowing what he meant, he couldn't help but chuckled immediately, "Sister Mu cares about you very much."

  Hearing this, a slight smile appeared on Mu Xiuzhu's cold face, "My sister has loved me since I was a child, especially after my parents passed away..." When he said this, his eyes dimmed slightly as if he had thought of something.

   Seeing this, Junli didn't want to comfort him, so he picked up a longan from the fruit plate on the table and put it in his hand, "It's very sweet, eat it."

  Hearing this, Mu Xiuzhu lowered his head slightly, looked at the round longan lying in his palm, and there was an imperceptible arc on the corner of his lips.

  Seeing him for a while, he just looked down at the longan in his hand, but didn't eat it. Junli couldn't help frowning, "Don't you like it?" As he said that, he reached out and took the longan.

  Mu Xiuzhu raised his head suddenly, quickly took the longan from Junli's hand, and then hurriedly said, "No, I like to eat..." After speaking, red appeared on the white earlobe.

  Jun Li watched him clumsily peel the longan until the shell of the longan was peeled off. The flesh of the longan was already pitted and the juice was flowing.

  Seeing this, Junli couldn't help shaking his head slightly, picked up a longan in the fruit plate, and gently peeled it open.

  Placing the white flesh in front of him, Jun Li smiled, "Here."

  Seeing this, Mu Xiuzhu was slightly stunned, and then took the pulp, a suspicious blush appeared on his cold and indifferent face.

   Really innocent!

  Jun Li raised his lips, took a few grapes and ate them gracefully. His eyes fell outside the gazebo, how could there be any figure?

  The corners of her mouth twitched, Mu Yao planned to keep the two of them here for how long...

  Seeing the passage of time, Mu Xiuzhu's expression was a little complicated.

   "Miss Mu, why don't you go back first?" Mu Xiuzhu said in a low voice, covering his eyes with drooping eyes.

  Jun Li frowned, and continued to stay here to wait, and Mu Yao didn't know if he would appear again. But it would be too rude to leave like this...

   "Let's wait a little longer, maybe something is missing in the kitchen, and Sister Mu got caught up in something."

  Although they said so, both of them were like mirrors in their hearts, knowing that Mu Yao did it on purpose. As for the reason...

  I'm afraid everyone can see it.

   Regarding this, Mu Xiuzhu didn't say anything more. Perhaps from the bottom of his heart, he still hopes that Junli will stay.

   After another cup of tea time, still no one came. Everyone seemed to have disappeared.

  Mu Xiuzhu peeled off a longan and planned to hand it to Junli, but found that the longan in his hand had become unbearable to look at directly. He retracted his hand involuntarily, and gently held the longan in his hand.

  Jun Li didn't notice this scene, but saw Mu Xiuzhu sitting there quietly with his head down, holding a longan that was already horrible to look at in his hand, giving a false sense of isolation from the world.

  The handsome man is sad, which is the most unseen thing for Junli.

  Picked up a longan and peeled it, put it in his hand, and said softly, "Eat it."

  Mu Xiuzhu stared blankly at the longan pulp in his hand, slightly pursed his lips, with a faint, almost non-existent smile on his lips.

   Bowed his head, ate the pulp, spit out the core, and then raised his head. With a calm gaze and a smile like the breeze and moon on his face, he picked up a longan, lowered his head, and peeled it seriously.

  Although the peeled pulp is still juicy, it is much better than the previous one.

  Handing the white flesh to Junli, the corners of Mu Xiuzhu's lips curled up slightly.

  Jun Li was slightly stunned, then took the pulp, and under Mu Xiuzhu's gaze, gently ate the pulp into his mouth.

   This scene was seen by Mu Yao, who was more than a hundred meters away from the gazebo. A gratified smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
