“Quickly go back and deal with the matters of your Ji family. You don’t need to worry about the affairs of the Mu family.”
Before Mu Chengxi could get angry, Old Madam Mu hastily intervened. The only way to defuse Mu Chengxi’s anger was to drive this fool away.
“Mom… Did I say something wrong… Chengxi has always been…”
“Get out! Also, be polite to Wen Xin in the future. She is my acknowledged granddaughter-in-law. The betrothal gifts of the Mu family have already been sent out, and it won’t change in the future!”
Old Madam Mu hadn’t lost her temper in a long time. She suddenly lost her temper, scaring Mu Jinrou into silence. She quickly grabbed her handbag and left.
On her way out, Mu Jinrou looked at the butler beside her, very puzzled.
“Butler, what gift did my mom give to Wen Xin as the betrothal gift?” “Third Aunt, I’m not sure about that. If you’re curious, you can ask the old lady…”
Thinking about how she had just been kicked out, Mu Jinrou gave the butler a disdainful glance and left the Mu family in a huff. She really couldn’t understand what kind of bewitching potion Wen Xin had fed to the Mu family for them to actually side with her.
She really disliked that wild girl. She looked wild and ruffian-like, obviously someone who didn’t study or have any skills. She couldn’t understand how she had captivated Mu Chengxi.
The courtyard finally quieted down. Old Madam Mu looked at Mu Chengxi, who was playing with his phone with his head down, and raised her eyebrows slightly.
“Where’s Little Xinxin? Didn’t she come with you? That girl has good medical skills and plays the piano. I didn’t expect her studies to be so good. She’s really talented. You shouldn’t be a playboy anymore. You’ll need to have the ability to protect her in the future.”
Listening to the implications in Old Madam Mu’s words, Mu Chengxi lifted his head and smiled lightly. The coldness and fierceness in his eyes had disappeared.
“Grandma, just say what you want to ask directly. There’s no need to beat around the bush. If I really can’t understand, then it would be a waste of your effort. ”
Having her thoughts exposed by Mu Chengxi, Old Madam Mu felt a little embarrassed and waved her hand. “What bad intentions could I have? I’m just reminding you that you need to be outstanding enough to deserve Wen Xin, that little girl.”
In Old Madam Mu’s eyes, Wen Xin had never been thought of as an ordinary girl. When Wen Xin saved her, she knew at first glance that this girl was extraordinary.
Everything that had happened since confirmed her speculation even more.
“If I’m not good enough, then so be it. Anyway, she doesn’t mind, and I’ll just stick to her. I don’t mind living off a woman.”
Mu Chengxi didn’t want to discuss Wen Xin’s identity with Old Madam Mu. He felt that the fewer people knew about Wen Xin’s identity, the better. He didn’t even plan to tell his grandmother.
Seeing how tight-lipped Mu Chengxi remained, Old Madam Mu gave up on wanting to know Wen Xin’s identity. She picked up the cold tea and took a sip.
“That girl from the Jiang family has returned to the capital. Her identity is special. Although no one mentions her mother’s identity, everyone knows that her mother is from the Independent State, so her status in the capital is not low.”
“Grandma knows you’re not interested in her. Just quickly put an end to her thoughts. She came to see me today, and her implications were all about furthering your relationship. I’ve already made it clear to her. The Mu family only has Wen Xin as a granddaughter-in-law. You need to handle the rest yourself.”
“Don’t let an irrelevant person affect Wen Xin’s mood.”
“Mm, I know about this matter. She called me before, wanting to talk to me. I made it clear that there’s nothing for us to talk about.”
Mu Chengxi placed the lighter on the coffee table and took out his phone from his pocket, sending Wen Xin a WeChat message, telling her that the others had left and she could come over for dinner!
Seeing Mu Chengxi acting like a doting husband, Old Madam Mu sighed deeply. He was becoming more and more like his grandfather.
“I heard that Old Master Jiang’s surgery was very successful. At that time, everyone in the capital thought Old Master Jiang was beyond saving, and those who were itching to make a move were ready to act. Unexpectedly, he had such good luck and encountered a good doctor.”
Although Old Madam Mu wasn’t in Old Master Jiang’s circle, she was very well-informed, and she knew everything that happened in those circles.
“The one who performed the surgery was Wen Xin. It was also by chance. After Wen Xin finished her exams, she met Zhuge Jingming and was sent to the research institute…”
Mu Chengxi had only heard some of the details, and Wen Xin hadn’t told him the specifics. He hadn’t even tried to inquire from others.
“It’s Little Xinxin again. Little Xinxin’s medical skills are so amazing. She’s simply a little genius!”
Talking about Wen Xin, Old Madam Mu smiled like a flower, and her whole demeanor improved significantly.
The next morning, Wen Xin lazily stretched in Mu Chengxi’s arms. She picked up her phone and checked the time. She was somewhat speechless—she had been getting lazier and lazier recently. Every time she opened her eyes, it was already this time, and she often felt like she couldn’t wake up.
Mu Chengxi hugged Wen Xin from behind and rested his head on her shoulder, his voice hoarse as he asked, “What time is it?”
“Seven thirty. What time did you sleep last night?”
Wen Xin remembered that when she was half-asleep, Mu Chengxi got up from the bed to handle some matters. She couldn’t remember when he came back to bed.
“Around five. You go and wash up first, and I’ll take a little nap, then I’ll send you to school.” Mu Chengxi lay on Wen Xin’s shoulder, gently kissed the shoulder exposed outside of the blanket, and let go of Wen Xin, allowing her to go wash up first.
When Wen Xin got up from the bed and saw Mu Chengxi’s sleeping face, his long and thick eyelashes were incredibly beautiful. She felt a softness in her heart that couldn’t be suppressed.
By the time Wen Xin finished washing up and came out of the bathroom, Mu Chengxi had already finished showering and opened the bedroom door.
Wen Xin looked at Mu Chengxi, who had just finished showering, and thought to herself that he looked sexy. Her beautiful eyes narrowed, and she walked up to Mu Chengxi, poking her finger at his bare chest. Following the traces of water droplets sliding down, she lightly scratched.
Mu Chengxi grabbed Wen Xin’s small hand and, with a hoarse and low voice, seemed to be suppressing some emotion, said, “Behave, don’t mess around…”
Raising her beautiful eyes, Wen Xin’s gaze met Mu Chengxi’s eyes, which were filled with desire. She raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly. “Okay, I won’t mess around. Go change your clothes…”
With just a simple “I won’t mess around,” Mu Chengxi couldn’t stay calm. He grabbed Wen Xin’s waist with his big hand and lowered his head to kiss her red lips….
