Chapter 344 It's okay, I'll carry you (Mumu Xiaobai)

Sending her suspicions about Shen Li and the recording to Cong Lang, Shen Zhaoyi looked out the window, overwhelmed by a flood of emotions.

The old lady is pitiful, but that doesn't mean the past can be wiped clean.

If it weren't for her insistence on causing trouble, I could have had a relatively perfect childhood.

Shen Li wanted to use this death to make some money, but Shen Zhaoyi, after much thought, finally decided to use it back.

They file a case under the pretense of being blackmailed, and then find an opportunity to steer the fire toward the truth.

Once the biggest obstacle is resolved, the process of transferring household registration will be much simpler.

Cong Lang looked at the chat history and initially wanted to sympathize with Shen Zhaoyi's plight, but then he thought of the person's bank account and immediately felt it was unnecessary.

Let's focus on doing the work at hand.

Inside the car, although he only heard half of the conversation, Old Wang felt a deep sense of melancholy.

I've been working here for so long, and I always get the latest gossip about the boss first thing. I hope I won't be silenced one day!
He felt a chill on his back, so he turned up the air conditioner temperature a bit.

Mu Mu observed Shen Zhaoyi's expression, wondering if it would be inappropriate to offer comfort at this moment. He only made up his mind when they were almost at the entrance of the convoy.

"Sister, it's still early, why don't we go for a walk to relax?"

"Relax?"

"Hmm." Mu Mu felt that in her current state, it might not be appropriate for her to meet other people, so she mustered up her courage and gave Lao Wang an address.

Knowing that the little fox was worried because of the phone call earlier, Shen Zhaoyi really didn't care.

Neither the old lady's death nor Shen Li's attitude mattered.

Call her cold-blooded or ruthless, but everyone is selfish.

The Shen family did not treat Shen Zhaoyi well when she was a child, so now that she is grown up, there is no need for her to cater to this unnecessary family affection.

Because she is not lacking in care and concern now.

The car made a U-turn at the intersection and changed its route.

At this moment, Pei Yan was unaware that he had been outmaneuvered and was running laps around the training field, trying to relieve his tension in this way.

Following Mu Mu's instructions, Lao Wang drove the car out of the bustling city center and finally stopped at a stall in an old town area.

"Where is this?" Shen Zhaoyi looked at the unfamiliar street. She thought that taking a walk to clear her head meant going to a deserted place.

At this time, it wasn't time for the street vendors to perform yet; only the larger shops on both sides were open.

Mu Mu got out of the car, took Shen Zhaoyi's hand, and walked towards one of the houses.

The boss seemed to recognize him, greeting him with a smile: "Long time no see! This is... your girlfriend?"

"Yes, my girlfriend."

Having finally gotten some alone time, Mumu's words were full of proud boasting.

After sitting down, he answered Shen Zhaoyi's question.

No one says that relaxing must involve looking at scenery or feeling the breeze by the lake. Sometimes, a delicious meal can also be a comfort.

Moreover, this restaurant specializes in wine.

Compared to others, Mumu thinks that Shen Zhaoyi is more suited to getting drunk right now.

"After you've had a good time drinking, you can have a nice good night's sleep. When you wake up, all your worries and sadness will be gone with yesterday."

"I'll risk my life to get drunk with my sister today!"

"Let's keep this life," Shen Zhaoyi said, flipping through the menu on the table. "Otherwise, what will we do if no one pays the bill?"

Seeing that she still had the mind to joke, Mu Mu did not relax; instead, the worry in her eyes intensified.

Since there were no customers at the moment, the barbecue skewers didn't take long to arrive and were quickly served.

Along with it came the real protagonist—

Alcohol. It's suitable for any occasion, whether you're happy or unhappy.

Shen Zhaoyi wasn't really interested at first, but seeing Mu Mu getting into it, she got caught up in it and filled her glass as well.

As time goes by, alcohol gradually begins to numb the nerves, and there are many things that one can no longer think about.

Old Wang parked his car not far away and silently watched the scene in the store. Suddenly, he worried whether he could handle the two drunkards later.
The answer is no.

Shen Zhaoyi's drinking manners were alright; even when drunk, she would only talk nonsense.

But Mu Mu was different; she wanted to cling to her whole body, using both hands and feet to coil herself into a pendant.

"Sister, why aren't you hugging me?"

"Could it be that he has truly found a new love and forgotten his old one?"

"That's okay, I'll carry you!"

Finding a way out for himself, Mumu suddenly shifted positions and prepared to pick the person up.

The boss was standing nearby, wanting to help, but felt it wasn't appropriate.

If I had known, I would have advised them against it.

Drinking so much, are you going to stay in the store until you sober up?
Just as they were hoping for a savior to appear, Old Wang arrived.

He wanted to help Shen Zhaoyi into the car first, and then come over to pick up Mumu, but the latter refused to let go, shouting, "No, no one can take her from me!"

"Shen Zhaoyi, today, today belongs to me!"

These two statements asserting sovereignty seem normal at first glance.

But for Lao Wang, who knew the details, he knew what he meant.

See? He said that none of the people around the boss are easy to deal with. Who would willingly be just a mistress?

After much coaxing and cajoling, I finally managed to get them both into the car and even paid the bill on the way.

Clutching the newly printed receipt, Old Wang checked the back row one last time before turning back, feeling reassured.

As for the convoy, it has long been forgotten.

When they arrived at the villa, Shen Zhaoyi and Mu Mu were already asleep.

Old Wang saw Xu Meng running out and quickly called out, "Girl, come and lend a hand, help Miss Shen inside!"

"Zhaoyi?"

"What's up with her?"

Xu Meng asked worriedly, but after opening the car door, she smelled the strong smell of alcohol and looked at Mu Mu next to her, and instantly understood.

But why are they having a drinking party in broad daylight?
Still drinking like this?
As he grabbed the person and held them still, he glanced hesitantly into the room.

What is all this!

Just as she was complaining, the door to the main house was pushed open from the inside again, and a strong figure appeared in her and Lao Wang's line of sight.

Cheng Yubai, who was angered and left by Shen Zhaoyi last time, suddenly came back today after disappearing for a few days.

Even though I came up empty-handed, I've patiently waited since morning.

Looking at the two people who were completely drunk, he raised an eyebrow and quickly walked down the steps.

"I'll do it. You go and make some hangover soup."

After saying this, he took Shen Zhaoyi from Xu Meng's hands without any further discussion.

As for Mu Mu, he originally intended to ignore her, but Cheng Yubai seemed to suddenly remember something, paused in his steps, and finally had Lao Wang help her upstairs with him.

The two rooms, one on the left and one on the right, were just enough to separate them.
