When Mu Nuannuan was distracted, Mu Mu thought Mu Nuannuan didn't hear her, so she kept repeating: "Mom, I saw dad, it's dad!"
"It's dad, I know." Mu Nuannuan put her down: "You come down first, my hands are a little sore."
She found that Mu Tingxiao was right. Mu Mu had gained some weight recently, and her hands became sore after holding him for a while.
Mu Nuannuan put Mu Mu on the ground, and Mu Mu took her hand to walk to the door of the villa, still muttering: "Dad, dad..."
Mu Nuannuan led Mu Mu over.
Just now, the two of them were standing on the flower bed. With their positional advantage, they could easily see Mu Tingxiao. But now that the two of them were standing on the ground, with a group of tall men in front of them, they basically couldn't see Mu Mu.
Mu Mu pulled Mu Nuannuan to squeeze through the crowd to find Mu Tingxiao. Mu Nuannuan pulled Mu Mu back, squatted down and whispered to Mu Mu: "Mu Mu, don't squeeze, dad will come in soon. Yes, we are waiting in the room."
If Mu Tingxiao could come to the door, he could naturally enter the room. It was useless for them to squeeze here.
Mu Mu pouted, a little disappointed, but still said obediently: "Okay."
Mu Nuannuan took her back. After walking a few steps, she looked back again before entering the room.
Not long after the two entered the room, Mu Tingxiao and Li Jiuheng came in together.
As soon as Mu Tingxiao entered the door, he saw Mu Nuannuan and Mu Mu.
A subtle smile flashed in his originally emotionless eyes.
Mu Nuannuan understood the meaning in his eyes, and seemed to be saying: "I told you that I would come to see you."
She looked away, looked away, and couldn't help laughing.
Mu Mu acted more directly. She happily ran directly to Mu Tingxiao: "Dad!"
Mu Mu was small, so she could only hug her legs and ask for a hug when she ran over.
Mu Tingxiao bent down and picked her up, sat down on the sofa aside, stretched out his hand and tapped her forehead: "Dad, there is something else."
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Li Jiuheng: "Mr. Li's way of hospitality is to let me stand here?"
Li Jiuheng just glanced at Mu Nuannuan and didn't say much. The men behind him moved forward and made an inviting gesture toward the stairs: "This way, please."
The situation is a bit delicate. Mu Tingxiao and Li Jiuheng are obviously incompatible people, but when Mu Tingxiao comes to the door, Li Jiuheng still wants to treat him politely.
Logically speaking, these two people should be facing each other.
It would be best if everything could be resolved peacefully, but the two parties involved now are Mu Tingxiao and Li Jiuheng, so it is quite delicate.
Mu Tingxiao turned around and went directly upstairs, followed Li Jiuheng to the study.
Mu Nuannuan stood there, a little confused.
Until Mu Mu, who was sitting on the sofa, patted the seat next to her and shouted to Mu Nuannuan: "Mom, come sit down."
Mu Nuannuan walked over and sat down next to Mu Mu.
Mu Mu held Mu Nuannuan's hand with a look of anticipation on her face: "Let's wait for dad together."
Mu Nuannuan touched her face and said nothing.
…
study.
As soon as Mu Tingxiao entered the door, he didn't regard himself as a guest at all. He sat down on the sofa without waiting for Li Jiuheng to speak. Then he raised his eyes and looked at Li Jiuheng: "Coffee, no sugar."
"Do you think this is a restaurant?" Li Jiuheng laughed angrily. He didn't expect that Mu Tingxiao would dare to come to him in such a big way.
Mu Tingxiao was sure that he would not hurt Mu Nuannuan, so he was so confident!
"Mr. Li has lived abroad since he was a child. He may not know much about the hospitality of our Chinese people. Chinese people are very hospitable and will treat guests with delicious food and drinks when they come to their door."
Mu Tingxiao sat on the sofa, his tone was casual, and he looked at Li Jiuheng with a half-smile, looking extra calm.
Li Jiuheng stared at Mu Tingxiao for half a second, then called the servant: "Give Mr. Mu a cup of coffee without sugar."
He emphasized the words "no sugar added".
in the hall.
Mu Nuannuan was very surprised when she saw the servant coming downstairs to bring coffee.
Li Jiuheng was so polite to Mu Tingxiao
After the servant delivered the coffee to Li Jiuheng's study, he left.
There were still only two people left in the room, Mu Tingxiao and Li Jiuheng.
Aluo came back from doing errands outside and hurried in with a cold air.
When she entered the door and saw Mu Nuannuan and Mu Mu, she strode towards her and asked directly: "Mu Tingxiao is here?"
Mu Nuannuan raised her head and glanced upstairs: "In the study."
Aluo turned around to go upstairs, then suddenly turned back to look at Mu Nuannuan: "You don't seem worried about Mu Tingxiao at all. This is not a place where they Mu Tingxiao's family is. Are you really not worried at all?"
"What do I need to worry about?" Mu Nuannuan turned around and asked.
Aluo didn't know what Mu Nuannuan's words meant, so he didn't speak immediately.
Mu Nuannuan walked to A Luo and stopped only half a step away from A Luo.
She stared at A Luo, lowered her voice, and said calmly: "Are you worried about the car accident that Li Jiuheng caused before, or are you worried about the poison in the coffee that the servant just served?"
Aluo snorted coldly and went upstairs.
As soon as A Luo stepped forward, Mu Nuannuan heard Mu Mu say: "Are you guys arguing?"
"No, Aunt Luo is chatting with me." Seeing Mu Mu's unbelieving look, Mu Nuannuan explained: "She has always been serious, it's okay."
Mu Mu blinked his eyes and nodded confusedly.
Although A Luo seemed indifferent, he really had no ill intentions toward Mu Mu. He would even ask the servants to bring delicious snacks and fun things to Mu Mu.
Mu Mu is smart and knows that A Luo has no ill intentions towards her, so she also has a good impression of A Luo.
Ah Luo came down within ten minutes of going up.
Mu Nuannuan immediately understood that Li Jiuheng and Mu Tingxiao were talking alone in the study.
What could these two men talk about together
Mu Nuannuan felt that it was becoming a bit torturous every minute.
But fortunately, it didn't take long for Mu Tingxiao to come down from upstairs. He came out alone. Li Jiuheng did not come out.
As soon as Ah Luo saw Mu Tingxiao coming out, he hurried upstairs to see Li Jiuheng with a worried look on his face.
Mu Nuannuan walked towards Mu Tingxiao, looked at him with her eyes, and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Mu Tingxiao lowered his eyes slightly and smiled at her.
"What did you and Li Jiuheng say?" Mu Nuannuan was really curious about what they said now.
Mu Tingxiao paused for a moment, then said seriously: "I told him that I was very grateful to him for helping me take care of my wife and daughter."
“…”
Mu Nuannuan looked at Mu Tingxiao in astonishment: "Do you think I will believe it?"
"I did say that." Mu Tingxiao smiled again, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
