Because they were too far away, and perhaps because they felt awkward seeing the scene, they didn't hear what the two were muttering.

We're all adults, and we're all very familiar with this kind of intimate situation. Generally speaking, things might escalate from there to something more.

Xu Xinning turned around quickly, and Mu Jingheng also turned around immediately as if he had been electrocuted. Then he put his arm around Xu Xinning and left quickly.

People of this era are reserved and introverted. Even though Mu Jingheng was reborn, he was still not used to such public displays of affection regardless of the occasion.

They walked quite a distance before stopping.

Xu Xinning was practically carried away by Mu Jingheng, so Mu Jingheng was panting heavily at the moment.

Xu Xinning had never seen Mu Jingheng so shy before, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud when she looked at him.

Mu Jingheng found it amusing; if they were discovered, they shouldn't be the ones embarrassed.

Then why are they running so hard?

It makes it seem like they're the ones who did the bad things.

The two of them found it funnier the more they thought about it, so they stood there and burst into laughter.

Xu Xinning: "It looks like their good news isn't far off."

Mu Jingheng didn't think so. Old Master Jiang had sent people to keep an eye on the two of them. Mu Jingheng had heard Old Master Jiang mutter many times that young people nowadays are really different from those of the past.

Mu Jingheng didn't know what it meant before, but after witnessing this scene today, he guessed that Old Jiang was referring to a romantic relationship.

When Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng returned home, Grandpa Mu was on the phone.

Grandpa Mu looked very surprised, his lips were always upturned, and his voice became louder and louder. When he saw Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng enter, he waved to them.

Grandpa Mu: "Xiao Heng and Ya Tou are back from their walk. Why don't you say a few words to them? You can also ask Ya Tou what she should pay attention to or what supplements she needs. In my opinion, you should send Yao Yao back. You're a grown man and you don't know how to take care of her. If you go on a mission, would you feel comfortable leaving Yao Yao alone at home?"

Grandpa Mu: "How ambitious! You've been a bachelor for so many years, and now you can't live without a wife?"

No one knows what was said on the other end, but Old Master Mu snorted and handed the phone to Mu Jingheng.

Mu Jingheng: "Brother!"

"Really?" Mu Jingheng exclaimed in surprise. "Congratulations, brother! How is your wife's health?"

Mu Jingheng: "Excessive sleepiness? Pregnant women are usually like this, right? Should I let Xin'er talk to you?"

Mu Jingheng then handed the microphone to Xu Xinning.

Xu Xinning: "Big brother, is sister-in-law pregnant? Congratulations!"

Xu Xinning: "It's okay, it's all normal. Everyone's pregnancy is different, so you don't need to worry too much."

Xu Xinning: "Hmm! You haven't gone to the hospital yet? Hmm! If you're worried, go to the hospital for a full check-up. If you have time, bring your sister-in-law back so I can take a look at her."

After saying a few words, Xu Xinning handed the microphone to Grandpa Mu.

Mu Jingheng poured Xu Xinning a glass of water.

Grandpa Mu spoke a few more words with Mu Jinghuai before hanging up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Grandpa Mu was still excited, but he scolded Mu Jinghuai, saying, "You can't even pay attention to your wife all day. You asked him to send her back, but he refused. He even said that there's a nice sister-in-law next door who can take care of each other often."

Grandpa Mu chuckled as he thought about it, "By this time next year, our house will be a children's paradise. We'll bring our third daughter back with us then. We can't keep leaving her at our in-laws' house. That girl is going crazy."

The elderly love a lively and bustling home, especially since the Mu family has been so quiet for far too long.

Grandpa Jiang always told Grandpa Mu that Xu Xinning was a lucky wife and a good wife, and now that Grandpa Mu thinks about it, it seems to be true.

Since Xu Xinning married into the family, her career has been booming, and everything at home has gone much more smoothly. Now she's pregnant with twins, and her eldest son's wife is also pregnant. Isn't the family becoming more and more prosperous?

The more Grandpa Mu looked at Xu Xinning, the more pleasing she became; the saying "a virtuous wife brings prosperity to three generations" was no exaggeration.

The next day, Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng ran into Yu Mei again on their way to work, but this time they didn't greet her because Yu Mei was too busy fighting with someone to greet them.

"You shameless slut! Who told you to seduce Brother Tao? Don't you know what you did last night? You're so shameless! You actually tried to seduce Brother Tao in public! Do you think he has to marry you just because you did that to him? You're just a cheap slut who's throwing yourself at him. You're nothing but a burden. Brother Tao will never look at you."

Who knows whose child this is? This little girl is using such foul language, which really surprised Xu Xinning.

Xu Xinning asked curiously, "Whose daughter is this?"

Mu Jingheng couldn't remember for a moment, so he asked Xiao Ning to stop the car and leaned out to take a good look.

My wife wants to eat melon seeds, and as a model husband, I have to satisfy her.

Unfortunately, he didn't recognize the fierce-looking girl. Just then, he saw Aunt Jiang returning from grocery shopping and called out, "Auntie, have you finished shopping?"

Auntie: "Oh! Mu Lao Er, are you going to work?"

"Yes!" Mu Jingheng pointed to the area where the fight was taking place and asked, "Whose daughter is this? She's so fierce!"

Xu Xinning looked at Mu Jingheng's back, her smile growing wider and wider.

Auntie: "You don't recognize me?"

Mu Jingheng shook his head.

The aunt continued, "One is the stepdaughter of the Yu family, and the other is the granddaughter of the Lü family."

Mu Jingheng was puzzled. Did the Lü family have such a big granddaughter? How come he didn't know?

Mu Jingheng: "The Lü family?"

The aunt seemed to understand Mu Jingheng's doubts and explained, "This is the granddaughter of Chief Lü's ex-wife. She used to live in the countryside. A few years ago, the old lady passed away, and Chief Lü probably felt guilty, so he brought all the children from the countryside to live with us. This girl is the granddaughter he brought back a few years ago."

Mu Jingheng's mouth dropped open in astonishment.

How come he's lived two lifetimes and this is the first time he's ever known that Old Master Lü has a wife in the countryside?

Seeing Mu Jingheng's surprise, the aunt perked up and continued, "The sons born to the Lü family in the past were all honest men, but for some reason, their grandchildren are quite troublesome. They've already caused quite a few laughs since they arrived."

The aunt looked around mysteriously and continued, "The Lü family is quite lively now, with chaos every day. Most of the grandchildren are unmarried, and since they came, they've set their sights on the young men and women in the compound, which has really infuriated the current husband. I wonder which girl has taken a fancy to this time; being pestered by her is no good. Speaking of which, it's strange how Chief Lü spoils these grandchildren. Even though they're causing such a ruckus at home, he hasn't been able to bring himself to scold them."

Mu Jingheng sighed.

Who is Commander Lü? He was a meritorious figure, a man who struck fear into the hearts of the enemy during the war years by carrying a large sword. I never imagined his home would be in such a state.
