Enduring the pain, Mu Tianye pulled the quilt over and gently covered the little girl beside him, carefully tucking the corners of the quilt for her.
"I won't argue with you this time. I'll take care of you after I recover from my injuries!"
His voice sounded like a threat, but his eyes were filled with affection.
Mu Tianye still clearly remembers what happened that night.
When he turned the car to protect her, the little girl called his name in panic and rushed to hug him - she was obviously extremely scared, but she still wanted to use her meager strength to protect him.
This little thing, this little fool...
She loved him purely, without any utilitarian intentions. This alone was worth cherishing for the rest of his life.
Looking sideways, staring at the little face sleeping peacefully in his arms, Mu Tianye slowly raised his lips.
Folding his right arm, he gently hugged Ning Xiaofei, like a giant eagle covering its own eggs with its wings, cautiously but without reservation.
There was a gentle knock on the door. Mu Tianye frowned unhappily and whispered "come in".
Zhou Tao opened the door and came in with a stack of documents. Just as he was about to open his mouth, he was glared at by his boss.
His eyes fell on the man's fingers raised to his lips, and out of the corner of his eye he noticed Ning Xiaofei, who was huddled in his arms and covered with a quilt, with only her head exposed. Zhou Tao understood and hurriedly moved lightly.
Putting the documents in his hand on the table, he carefully took the top document and turned to the last page. He held it in front of Mu Tianye and handed him the signature pen in a low voice.
"This document is urgently needed. You can read the rest later."
Taking the pen with his left hand stuck with the needle, Mu Tianye raised his hand to sign his name.
Because it is the left hand that is not commonly used, and it is inconvenient to have a needle on the back of the hand, the signature is naturally written well and cannot be seen.
Zhou Tao looked at the slightly crooked signature on the document and didn't dare to find fault.
Throwing the pen to him, Mu Tianye hooked his fingers. Zhou Tao hurriedly bent down and put his ear to it. The man whispered in his ear, asking him to order another ring for Ning Xiaofei according to the previous size.
Zhou Tao laughed as soon as he heard this. When he saw the man staring at him in displeasure, he hurriedly reached out and took out a small black box from his pocket, holding it in his hand and bringing it over.
Recognizing it at a glance as a brocade box containing rings, Mu Tianye took it doubtfully, and Zhou Tao stretched out his fingers to help him open the lid of the box.
In the box, the valuable wedding ring immediately flashed with colorful light.
"Where did you find it?"
Mu Tianye was naturally surprised when the ring was lost and found.
"The cleaning lady found it in the trash can. When I went back to the apartment to help you and the young lady pick up things, I saw the lost and found one and guessed it might be the one you bought. I got the invoice from Mrs. Liu and brought it back." Zhou Tao smiled slyly, "I guess you need it, so... I'll take it together."
Mu Tianye gave him a "You're smart" look. When he heard the footsteps outside the door, he folded his fingers and put the ring under his pillow.
"Mr. Mu, this way!"
The driver's voice came from the corridor, and Zhou Tao hurriedly greeted him.
"Young lady is resting, please keep your voice down."
He was glared at before he could speak. If the driver kept making such a loud voice, he would be pissed off.
The driver hurriedly covered his mouth and took a step back to make way for Mr. Mu who was following behind.
"Mr. Mu, you go in first, and I'll go to the bathroom."
He didn't want to go in and be scolded, so it was better to avoid the limelight.
