Chapter 357 Both husband and wife suspected that Nianbai had misspoken.

Song Chi: "..."

She subconsciously thought of Nianbai, and how he and Mu Yin, Mu's father, looked somewhat similar.

She wondered if Nianbai was really an illegitimate son of the Mu family, and was deliberately picking a fight with them because he was unhappy that the uncle had taken his place.

Well……

The plot, which had been overdone in TV dramas, suddenly happened to her, making her doubt herself, wondering if she was just overthinking things.

Her expression changed repeatedly.

Mu Yin looked worried when he saw that she was silent.

"Honey, who are you thinking about? Tell me!"

At this moment, President Mu had not yet thought of any suspicious individuals, but he was not in a hurry.

Those reporters who were stirring up trouble at the press conference just now won't be leaving the venue today.

Because he ordered his men to detain them and interrogate their backers rigorously.

After all, before this, no media reporter dared to question him or even sway the narrative at a press conference.

He knew that all of this was being manipulated behind the scenes.

"Uncle, I was just doubting Mr. Nianbai... but... I guess I was overthinking it..."

"Spoken?"

"Honey, what makes you doubt him?"

After a moment's thought, Song Chi cautiously replied.

"Uncle, I think... you, Dad, and Mr. Nianbai look a bit alike... Could he be Dad's illegitimate son?!"

"If he's an illegitimate child and wants to seize the Mu family's assets, doesn't that give him a reason to retaliate against us?"

"Thinking about it this way, it makes perfect sense that we've been getting into trouble lately, and that there's a pair of eyes watching us, trying to harm us!"

Mu Yin: "!!!"

These words were like a thunderbolt to him!

He was initially surprised, but then he realized that his parents were always showing affection for each other, so how could his father possibly have cheated on his mother and fathered an illegitimate child?

He absolutely refused to believe it!

but……

He had suspected that Nianbai had ulterior motives for contacting them, but he never doubted that he was the one manipulating this incident behind the scenes.

He recalled his father's repeated admonitions.

He warned him not to contact Nianbai. From his perspective, they had never met before, so why was he so wary of him?

Could it be that his father knows something...?

Seeing that his brows were furrowing deeper and deeper, Song Chi asked in surprise.

"Uncle, what are you thinking about?"

Mu Yin snapped out of his thoughts.

“Honey, I think you might be overthinking it. There have been many cases reported in the news where people who are not related by blood look very similar!”

"Besides, my dad loves my mom so much, he couldn't possibly have an illegitimate child!"

Song Chi had initially been a little skeptical of Nian Bai, but after he said that, she wondered if she was overthinking it!

She paused for a moment, then said.

"Uncle, this idea is a bit far-fetched. Maybe I've watched too many TV dramas. After all, Mr. Nianbai is such a friendly person, yet I've thought the worst of him!"

Mu Yin snapped out of his thoughts.

"Silly girl, don't overthink it. Why would I think that about you? Actually, I've suspected him before. He must have had ulterior motives for contacting us. Since you suspect him too, then let's have less contact with him in the future. After all, it's always good to be cautious, right?"

Song Chi paused for a moment, then nodded.

"Um!"

"Uncle, how do we catch that person hiding in the shadows, trying to harm us at every turn?"

Mu Yin smiled gently.

"Honey, don't worry, my people are already investigating! You're pregnant, you should eat well and sleep well, don't think too much, okay!"

"Uncle, if you say that, it makes me sound useless..."

Song Chi muttered to himself.

She felt a little resentful towards herself.

The older man handles everything.

Today's press conference also saw the uncle confronting reporters again.

Faced with these grand occasions, although she tried to appear strong, she was still too delicate and no match for them.

Thinking about this, she felt more and more that she had nothing left.

The more she thought about it, the lower her head went, and a look of inferiority flashed in her eyes.

Mu Yin noticed her bad mood and guessed that she was feeling inferior.

He felt a pang of heartache.

He gazed at her with doting eyes and gently stroked the top of her head.

"Silly girl, you're overthinking things again, aren't you?"

Song Chi: "..."

It has to be said, her husband really knows her inside and out.

Song Chi nodded.

"Uncle, am I stupid? I can't even yell in this dangerous situation, I can't help you at all. I'm not a good Mrs. Mu!"

In the past, she thought they were ordinary people living simple, uneventful lives, and that she didn't need to be too powerful.

However, now that her husband is a powerful CEO, how can she, as his wife, always be outmatched by others?

I've heard that wealthy families are often embroiled in scandals...

Sigh, I'm afraid I won't have a good life in a wealthy family from now on!

Upon hearing this, Mu Yin's face turned serious!

"Sweetie, you're not allowed to say that!"

Mu Yin held her hand and stroked the back of it, offering her comfort.

He was very patient, as if he were teaching a little baby.

"Honey, you're still young. This is the first time you've faced a situation like this, and you weren't trembling with fear. You even managed to say a few words back to them. That's really impressive!"

"I remember it clearly. When so many people attacked me, you weren't afraid at all and protected me. I was so touched!"

As Mu Yin spoke, Song Chi's emotions were stirred.

"Honey, as time goes by, you'll gain more insight and experience. In the future, when you face similar situations, even without me around, you'll still be the queen who commands the entire room!"

"By then, I'm afraid I won't even be as good as you!"

President Mu is good at praising people.

Hearing this, Song Chi felt incredibly warm inside, and the slight inferiority he had felt earlier gradually disappeared under the praise.

However, she paused for a moment when she heard the last sentence.

She muttered, "Once isn't enough? There's going to be a later?"

"Pfft! That's all. I don't want it to happen again. These past two days, they haven't given us a moment's peace. Life hasn't been easy!"

"That's more like it..."

The two looked at each other and smiled, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

Little did they know that their casual conversation would one day become a reality!

After all that fuss, Song Chi was so sleepy he kept yawning.

Seeing that she was sleepy, Mu Yin quickly said.

"Honey, I'll take you back to the hotel. You can sleep for a while, and I'll wake you up when it's time for lunch."

Song Chi nodded: "Okay."

As the two walked out, Mu Yin subconsciously took her hand.

"Honey, we've already bought a new house, and it's not appropriate to keep living in a hotel. Let's pick an auspicious day and move into our new home!"

Song Chi had no objection and nodded.

"good."

As they talked, the two got into the luxury car.

Song Chi is currently in her second trimester and is facing such a huge crisis; it's impossible for her not to be exhausted!

As soon as she got in the car, she became so sleepy that she couldn't keep her eyes open.

Mu Yin felt a pang of heartache and held her close, letting her sleep in his arms.

The car steadily drove towards the hotel.

A moment later, Mu Yin heard Song Chi's even breathing, and the corners of his mouth turned up, his eyes full of doting affection and tenderness.

His darling wife seems less resistant to his domineering CEO persona now...

Has she completely forgiven him?

Thinking of this, President Mu grinned foolishly.

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Afraid of disturbing her sleep, Mu Yin quickly muted his phone, answered the call, and lowered his voice.

"Hello."

"Mr. Mu, before we begin the first phase of our cooperation with Anlison, we need to conduct an on-site inspection."

Anlison just contacted us and wants you to go to the US with him for an inspection. Is your schedule convenient for you?

Mu Yin frowned.

Did Anlison require him to conduct on-site investigations?

Is he really that free to be a domineering CEO?

He had long suspected that there was something wrong with him, and the contract he signed with him was revised by the legal department repeatedly. This foreigner couldn't outmaneuver them when it came to playing word games!

Mu Yin recalled Song Chi's words.

She said she doubted the recitation.

His father also warned him to be careful with his recitations.

He always felt that Anlison's initiative to seek cooperation with him seemed to be at someone's behest.

He considered everyone around him who was most likely to be there, and finally settled on Nianbai...

Could it be...?

Mu Yin had thought of something, but lacking evidence, he dared not draw any conclusions.

So why not just agree and go to the US to see what tricks they have up their sleeves!

Mu Yin said, "Tell Anlison to set a time; I'll go to the US with him..."
