Xiao Chuhe stood up: "I'll ask the servant to prepare the meal."
Mu Wanqi didn't even look at her, and Mu Liyan just nodded towards her.
Xiao Chuhe's face became a little ugly, but he didn't say much.
When passing by Mu Nuannuan, she stopped and said quietly but seriously: "Come out."
Mu Liyan and Mu Wanqi were already sitting together, talking quietly about something.
She glanced at them and followed Xiao Chuhe out.
Xiao Chuhe pulled her into her old bedroom. As soon as he closed the door, he looked at her seriously: "Did you let someone shoot the video?"
Mu Nuannuan was slightly startled. She didn't expect that Mu Liyan believed her, but Xiao Chuhe didn't believe her.
In her impression, Xiao Chuhe was a woman who was completely dependent on men, placing all her hopes on Mu Liyan, weak and without any opinion.
"No..." Mu Nuannuan shook her head like a rattle, her eyes clear and bright.
Xiao Chuhe is indeed a woman with no independent opinions, but she is Mu Nuannuan's biological mother, and mother and daughter are connected. She always feels that this matter is not that simple.
"Your father and your sister both trust you, don't lie to them." Xiao Chuhe frowned and spoke in a serious tone.
Xiao Chuhe's family background was not good when she was young, but she was a beauty and good at taking care of others, so Mu Liyan married her.
She didn't understand anything when she was a child, but when she grew up, she understood that Mu Liyan would marry Xiao Chuhe just because he wanted a woman to help him properly take care of the two children left by his deceased wife.
To put it mildly, she is just a bed-warming nanny.
She couldn't understand what kind of magic power Mu Liyan had that could make Xiao Chuhe so determined.
"I'm a little hungry." Mu Nuannuan lowered her head and looked at Xiao Chuhe again. She was not sure what she would say.
After Xiao Chuhe forced her to marry into the Mu family, her tolerance for Xiao Chuhe became increasingly low.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Chuhe felt that he had gone too far.
She looked at Mu Nuannuan and softened her tone: "Go down."
As soon as Mu Nuannuan left the room, the timid and aggrieved expression on her face completely disappeared.
After she married into the Mu family, she originally didn't want to be involved with the Mu family anymore and just wanted to live a quiet life.
However, the Mu family refused to let her go.
In that case, let's wait and see.
…
When she passed the study, she found that the study door was ajar and there was no one in the room.
Then the father and daughter also went downstairs
When Mu Nuannuan reached the stairs, she vaguely heard someone talking downstairs. In addition to the voices of Mu Wanqi and her daughter, there seemed to be other men's voices.
Who else will come to Mu's house at this time
She walked down the stairs curiously, and when she finally saw the man's face clearly, she was stunned.
Mu Liyan had already seen her, and he waved to her, his tone uncharacteristically gentle: "Nuan Nuan, come here quickly, Ting Xiao has asked his cousin to pick you up."
Mu Nuannuan did not expect to see "Mu Jiachen" at Mu's house, and there was no time to hide the surprise on her face.
He wore a very crisp suit today. The three-dimensional cut looked very expensive at first glance. There was a faint smile on his handsome face. He sat there with a casual posture, but exuded a strong aura.
Probably because he felt her gaze, he also raised his eyes to look at her: "Cousin, cousin asked me to pick you up."
When he spoke, the smile on his lips deepened a bit, and his voice, so low and emotionless, sounded inexplicably ambiguous.
Mu Nuannuan opened her mouth and said with great difficulty: "Oh."
But Mu Wanqi, as if she suddenly remembered something, came close to Mu Liyan and whispered something, while looking at Mu Nuannuan a few times.
Without listening, she could guess that Mu Wanqi definitely didn't mean anything good.
Mu Tingxiao took advantage of this opportunity to look at Mu Nuannuan. When his eyes swept over her red and swollen face, a hint of evil quickly flashed in his dark eyes, and his hand on the armrest of the sofa tightened unconsciously. A few points.
No matter how ugly or useless she is, Mu Nuannuan is still his woman!
He himself had never laid a hand on her, yet these people dared to lay a hand on her.
Mu Tingxiao glanced at Mu Liyan and Mu Wanqi sitting over there, turned to look at Mu Nuannuan, and said in a low voice: "Come and sit."
Mu Nuannuan didn't really want to sit there, but "Mu Jiachen's" unscrupulous behavior made her a little wary. She didn't know what he was doing at Mu's house today, so she decided to follow him first.
She didn't believe that Mu Tingxiao would ask "Mu Jiachen" to pick her up.
She just sat down next to "Mu Jiachen" when she saw him turning to look at her with a faint tone: "My cousin, your face is so swollen that I almost didn't recognize you."
Only then did Mu Nuannuan remember that she had been slapped by Mu Wanqi before, and her face had already become swollen. Mu Wanqi's slap was so hard that she was numb from the pain, and she forgot about it for a moment.
When Mu Tingxiao spoke, he glanced in the direction of Mu Wanqi and Mu Liyan intentionally or unintentionally.
Mu Wanqi was originally a little scared because of the strong aura exuding from Mu Tingxiao, but now she saw his face asking about Mu Nuannuan, her heart trembled, and she cast a threatening look at Mu Nuannuan.
Mu Nuannuan's eyebrows moved, showing fear. She pursed her lips and explained to "Mu Jiachen": "I accidentally... fell."
Such a clumsy lie can be broken without any scrutiny.
Mu Tingxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned forward and approached Mu Nuannuan, and said with unclear meaning: "Really?"
Mu Nuannuan didn't dare to look at him, and lowered her head guiltily: "...Yes."
Mu Tingxiao chuckled and stopped talking.
Mu Nuannuan deciphered four words from his laughter: not knowing what is good and what is evil.
"Mu Jiachen" came in the name of picking her up. From another aspect, it also showed that Mu Tingxiao valued Mu Nuannuan.
No matter whether he was sent by Mu Tingxiao or not, Mu Nuannuan knew that if she told "Mu Jiachen" that her swollen face was beaten by Mu Wanqi, he would definitely stand up for her.
Mu Nuannuan felt that she could handle the Mu family's affairs well. On the other hand, it was because "Mu Jiachen" was too dangerous and she didn't want to get too involved with him.
Mu Liyan was very satisfied with Mu Nuannuan's answer, and his tone became gentler: "Master Mu came to Mu's house specially, let's have dinner together before leaving."
Mu Tingxiao leaned on the sofa and said casually: "Okay."
This was indeed an unexpected surprise for Mu Liyan.
Although "Mu Jiachen" is just a young master from a branch of the Mu family, there is nothing wrong with trying to please him.
The servant took Mu Liyan's cell phone and came over to tell him that there was a call for him to answer. Mu Liyan got up and went out to answer the phone. Mu Wanqi felt uneasy and found an excuse to leave.
For a moment, the only words left in the hall were Mu Nuannuan and Mu Tingxiao.
Mu Nuannuan looked around, frowned and asked him in a low voice: "What are you doing here?"
