On their wedding night, she attempted to flee. The entire city was on high alert, and he cornered her in the bridal suite.
"No, don't come any closer, there's a difference between...
In short, over the past three years, Xia Bingqing has absolutely devoted herself to Guoguo, doing everything a mother should do.
Therefore, all the dozens of servants in the villa considered Xia Bingqing as the young mistress, or rather, the future young mistress. All that was missing was Mu Nanxun's nod of approval.
Even Xiao Fang, who had always disliked Xia Bingqing, gradually changed his opinion, believing that she had truly reformed.
Hearing Xiao Guoguo say this, Xiao Fang started to have doubts again. "Xiao Guoguo, do you mean... your Aunt Xia says one thing in front of us, and another behind our backs? Could it be that you saw wrong... or maybe your Aunt Xia was in a bad mood that day? If she was in a bad mood, that's understandable. Sometimes I'm in a bad mood too, and I don't want to smile."
“It’s different, it’s different.” Guoguo insisted on her opinion, “Anyway, Aunt Xia just doesn’t like Guoguo, and Guoguo doesn’t like Aunt Xia either.”
"But..." Xiao Fang thought for a long time, trying to come up with a rebuttal. But after a long time, he couldn't come up with a convincing one.
Actually, he wasn't speaking up for Xia Bingqing. The main issue was that the two of them, one big and one small, needed a woman to take care of them. They couldn't let Xia Bingqing continue living in the Mu family without any official status. Even if Xia Bingqing herself didn't say anything, the servants would start gossiping after a while.
"Boss, what do you think? I think that living together as a partner is pretty much..."
"Guoguo's thoughts are my thoughts."
After remaining silent for a long time, Mu Nanxun spoke these words. His attitude was firm and left no room for argument.
Okay, Xiao Fang shut up, knowing that his persuasion had been in vain again.
Mu Nanxun and Xia Bingqing returned to the villa one after the other.
Xia Bingqing acted as if nothing had happened, still smiling and greeting Guoguo, washing fruit from the kitchen, cutting it into pieces, and feeding it to Guoguo.
"Come on, Guoguo, it's time for us to eat fruit. What should we eat first? How about a slice of apple? It's sweet and good for your health."
"No, Guoguo wants to eat oranges."
"Eating oranges is good, good, good. Eating oranges is good too."
Xiao Fang, standing to the side, watched the two of them with a maternal smile. She even leaned closer to Mu Nanxun and said indirectly, "Boss, look how harmonious this scene is. Guoguo really needs her mother's love."
Mu Nanxun: "..."
"In my opinion, Miss Xia is truly devoted to you and the young lady. Although she did many things that were annoying in the past, I think she has changed a lot in the past few years."
"..."
“Boss, even if not for yourself, for Guoguo’s sake, you have to consider starting over. It’s been three years already, the young mistress has long since passed away, and you’re still keeping it from Guoguo. I know you’re keeping it from her for her own good, but Guoguo will grow up eventually and will find out about these things. She can’t stay without her mother to take care of her forever, it’s so pitiful.”
Xiao Fang's incessant chatter finally caught Mu Nanxun's attention.
Mu Nanxun frowned and said quietly, "I've noticed you've been talking a lot more lately. Could it be that you're going through early menopause?"
"Menopause..." Xiao Fang almost choked on her own saliva. This boss was either silent or had a speechless speech, which was utterly suffocating. Did he even want people to live?
