She Lost Memory Before the Divorce Chapter 265

Chapter 265: Chapter 0265: Do you already have someone in your heart? Chapter 265: Chapter 0265: Do you already have someone in your heart? Mu Lan glared at him, it's just a damn dreamwalk!

“Huo Tingxiao, do you think I'm an idiot? Sleepwalking?”

Huo Tingxiao blinked, his smile growing wider.

Getting up in annoyance, Mu Lan's eyes seemed like they could shoot fire.

“In the middle of the night, you were still able to carry me to the hospital bed, and now you're pretending to be weak?”

Huo Tingxiao thought to himself that he had managed to fool her completely before, so how had she become so shrewd all of a sudden?

“I didn't do anything, I'm really wronged, you really did sleepwalk.”

Mu Lan didn't want to listen to his nonsense as she attempted to get out of bed, only to be embraced from behind.

“Let go!”

“Are you angry?”

Huo Tingxiao rested his chin in the crook of her shoulder, whining like a big wolf dog.

“I don't buy this act, really think I'm a three-year-old kid? Huo Tingxiao, I think you're…”

“You weren't sleeping very well, and it made me feel bad, so I carried you up here. Last night, you kept snuggling into my arms. Lanlan, you can hit me, scold me, whatever, just don't be angry with yourself.

You still have me in your heart, I know it.”

Mu Lan was dumbfounded, not expecting him to dare to say such shameless words first thing in the morning.

“Who has you in their heart? Don't flatter yourself.”

She pried his fingers off and went to the bathroom with a cold face to wash up and brush her teeth.

Huo Tingxiao sat on the hospital bed, looking pitiful like a statue of a grieving husband.

He was genuinely sick, and exploiting it to gain some sympathy was his intent, hoping to soften her heart a bit; sleeping alone truly fucking sucked.

Heaven knows that in these days without her by his side, he was nearly going insane.

So he couldn't help but curse at himself for being heartless and not knowing how to cherish what he had. Who else could he blame? Only himself.

When Mu Lan came out of the bathroom, she saw him looking as if he had been abandoned, and with a hard heart, pretended not to see. Not long after, Auntie Li came in with breakfast.

“It's good that Mu Lan is here to take care of you, ah, I've heard the doctor say it could have been a stomach perforation. You need to take care of yourself, Young Master.”

Huo Tingxiao nodded, eating the nutritious porridge Auntie Li made.

“Auntie Li, I'm going to work. Please take care of him.”

Mu Lan was very polite, and Auntie Li couldn't help but sigh silently; ah, why couldn't the child be as chatty and adorable as before.

“Hmm.”

After breakfast, Mu Lan left the hospital and went straight to the studio.

The first sample of the newly selected fabric didn't meet her satisfaction, so she made some changes again.

As she pondered over when to launch the online store, Mu Lan's phone rang.

“Hello?”

“Why didn't you tell me about opening the studio?”

It was Mu Huaifeng.

“Brother, there's a lot going on at the company, I didn't want to distract you.”

“Not distract me? You'd rather let Huo Tingxiao worry about you? What, are you really planning on getting back together with him?”

Mu Huaifeng's words were straightforward. Mu Lan paused, with no intention of lying to Mu Huaifeng.

“It's not about getting back together, it's just taking it one step at a time. Right now, I'm not thinking too much, the studio keeps me busy enough.”

“Got time for lunch? Let's meet and eat.”

“Sure, where at?”

“Come to the company.”

“Okay, see you at noon.”

After hanging up the phone, Mu Lan's heart still hadn't relaxed. She was very clear about Mu Huaifeng's temperament; if he found out what happened in Paris, it would likely cause a huge uproar. Therefore, no matter what, she had to keep her mouth shut.

Lunchtime, Yun Xi drove Mu Lan to the Mu Group Building.

Mu Lan rarely visited the company, so even the receptionist didn't know that the woman standing before her was the young mistress of Mu Group.

“Sorry, do you have an appointment?”

“I have an appointment to see your boss Mr. Mu in his office.”

The receptionist immediately called the secretarial office, received a confirmation, and let her through without delay.

No sooner had Mu Lan gone upstairs than the receptionist began to guess who this goddess might be, knowing too well that Mu Huaifeng had always been a clean-living man with no women ever coming to see him before.

Heading straight for the CEO's private elevator, she shot up to the top floor where Mu Huaifeng was fretting over a recent case.

“Brother.”

“You're here.”

When Mu Huaifeng looked up and saw Mu Lan, his irritable mood immediately lifted quite a bit.

“You look a bit off, brother. Are things not going well with the work you have?”

Mu Huaifeng stood up to sit down on the sofa, casually leaning against the chair back, allowing himself to relax.

“It's alright. How about your studio, do you need any funds?”

Mu Lan smiled.

“No need, the stocks and funds from before are enough for me. I'll let you know if I do.”

Mu Huaifeng nodded, took out a set of keys from his pocket, and handed them to Mu Lan.

“This is the new apartment I bought for you, not far from your studio. When you don't feel like going back to Maple Forest Garden, you'll have a place to go.”

Mu Lan was stunned. Why on earth did he buy her a house all of a sudden?

“Brother, I don't need…”
“What do you not need? Haven't you said you want to put your heart and soul into your career? This apartment is yours, I know you don't want to worry mom.

I was negligent before, too trusting of you, really believed that the problem between you and Huo Tingxiao wasn't that serious.

Looking back now, I was too naive. Anyway, this apartment is yours, you can move in whenever you want, and all the furniture and decorations are ready.

Don't worry, it's all according to your tastes.

I know you can cook for yourself, but you're too busy with work to take care of yourself, so I'll have Auntie Wang go over from time to time to clean up for you.”

Mu Huaifeng really had everything prepared for her, making Mu Lan's eyes moist with warmth. Having such a brother truly made her feel blessed.

“Brother, thank you.”

“Silly girl, why thank me? I just want to see you happy.

As for that man, Huo Tingxiao… if you really like him and want to reconcile, I'll respect your decision.

But remember, no matter what, if he dares to bully you, your brother dares to fight him to the end.”

Mu Lan knew Mu Huaifeng meant every word, which was why she kept everything to herself no matter what happened, afraid of causing any conflict.

“Alright, I'm grown-up enough to take care of myself.

It's you who should be worried about. When will you find a sister-in-law for me?

Brother, could it be that you still have someone on your mind…”

Mu Huaifeng looked away, not wanting to answer the question.

“Don't you worry about me, little girl. I know what I'm doing.

It has nothing to do with past relationships. I just haven't met the right person.”

Mu Lan pouted, clearly not convinced.

“Brother, just tell me the truth. Are you staying single because you already have someone in your heart but for some reason can't be together?”

Mu Huaifeng narrowed his eyes, casting his gaze downward, not daring to look at Mu Lan.

“Don't let your imagination run wild. There's enough on my plate every day at the company to keep me busy, I don't have time to think about all that mess.”

Mu Lan sighed.

“Falling in love, how is that a mess? I'm not rushing you; I'm just afraid that if you stay single for too long, you'll really get used to it and stop looking for someone.”
