Chapter 438: Mu Yuting fell asleep on his lap

The car slowly left the village. Xiao Nuan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around and watched her parents and brother disappear from her sight. She felt sad.

She fears separation the most.

I was afraid that my parents would be sad, so I kept pretending to be strong.

At this moment, she couldn't bear it anymore, turned her head to the window, and tears quietly rolled down her cheeks.

Mu Yuting knew that she must be feeling upset.

He parked the car on the side of the road, wanting to make her happy, wanting to hold her in his arms, kiss her, and then tease her by scratching the tip of his nose.

"Little fool, you're still crying even though you're old. If you make me look ugly while crying, I won't want you anymore."

But the hand that was stretched out was raised in the air, and then subconsciously retracted.

Can't……

He took out a tissue and handed it to Xiao Nuan, gently rubbed her head, and continued driving without saying anything.

Xiao Nuan wiped away her tears and looked at Mu Yuting, "Oh, by the way, honey, grandma just called me on video, but I was packing and didn't answer. I have to call her back."

Husband, this was a name Mu Yuting liked very much.

But now when I hear it, my heart is filled with sadness, self-blame, and guilt...

He shouldn't have married Xiao Nuan.

Even when Mu Yuting thought about his previous close behavior with Xiao Nuan, he felt disgusted with himself.

He didn't dare think about it anymore.

Just like Xiao Nuan’s mother said, being together was a mistake. Now that they know it, they can’t let the mistake continue.

Xiao Nuan had already started video chatting with her grandmother, who couldn't wait to ask, "Granddaughter-in-law, how is my son Maodan doing? Are your parents satisfied with him?"

When Xiao Nuan heard the name Maodan, she wanted to laugh and came out of the sadness of parting.

"Grandma, don't worry, your Maodan is doing very well. My parents are very satisfied with your Maodan, and my brother likes your Maodan very much too. He calls him brother-in-law and brother-in-law so sweetly, even more affectionate than calling me sister."

Grandma was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. "Okay, that's great. I was always worried that your parents wouldn't like Maodan's cold and dull personality."

"Grandma, you guessed wrong this time. Maodan is very obedient and sweet-mouthed. All our neighbors praise him..."

Xiao Nuan enthusiastically told her grandmother about the interesting things that happened in the past few days, making her grandmother laugh.

If Mu Yuting had heard Xiao Nuan calling her "Maodan" normally, he would have punished her gently long ago.

But today, she wanted to let her say enough, because there might not be such an opportunity in the future.

Mu Yuting listened to their conversation quietly.

Xiao Nuan told her grandmother that if the highway was not congested, they would arrive at the villa at about one o'clock. Her grandmother said that they would wait for her to have dinner together. She cooked for Xiao Nuan herself and made her favorite sweet and sour pork ribs.

…

When we arrived in town, Mu Yuan and A Long were already waiting there.

These days, they did not return to Jiangcheng and have been staying in the town.

It was Ye Chen who didn't let them go back and asked them to wait for Mu Yuting to come back together.

Mu Yuan took over the Mercedes-Benz driven by Mu Shao, and A Long drove the Land Rover.

The two cars drove onto the highway one after the other.

Mu Yuting and Xiao Nuan sat side by side in the back row. In order to divert his attention, he picked up his tablet and started handling company affairs.

Xiao Nuan thought that Mu Yuting must have delayed a lot of work during these days when he was back home. Xiao Nuan did not disturb him and drew the design draft on her mobile phone.

In the past few days, the online store has not made any progress on its commissioned works, and has been urged several times.

An hour later, Xiao Nuan's eyelids began to droop, her phone slipped from her hand onto the seat, her body tilted, and she habitually fell asleep with her head resting on Mu Yuting's legs.

Whenever they go on a long journey, Xiao Nuan likes to sleep as soon as she gets in the car, and she likes to sleep with her head resting on Mu Yuting's legs the most.

Mu Yuting knew that from now on, this would no longer be possible...

But, today, let her rest her head on my pillow for the last time.

Mu Yuting took off his coat and gently covered Xiao Nuan with it.

She looked so peaceful and calm while sleeping, as beautiful as an angel.

Mu Yuting didn't dare to look at Xiao Nuan anymore. He looked away and happened to see Xiao Nuan's scattered cell phone.

At this moment, he suddenly wanted to see what notes Xiao Nuan had given him.

Open.

The phone note is: nouveau riche.

The WeChat note is: Bad uncle.

Mu Yuting curled his lips and smiled bitterly, if...

How nice it would be if I were just your upstart, just your bad uncle...

Mu Yuting glanced down at the sleeping Xiao Nuan, then looked out the window, his eyes covered with a layer of white mist...

If possible, he would be willing to use up all his wealth and worth to be with Xiao Nuan...

But there aren’t so many ifs.

No matter how much money you have or how high your social status is, it is so pale and powerless at this moment.

Mu Yuan saw this scene through the rearview mirror, and he vaguely felt that Mu Shao today was different from before.

Although he couldn't put it into words, he could feel it after following Mr. Mu for so many years.

Mr. Mu is worried.

…

After more than four hours' drive, we finally returned to the Mu family villa.
