Chapter 65 Protecting Her

lounge.

Mu Yichen pulled Nan Xu in.

Closing the door, Mu Yichen lowered his voice and said, "That matter cannot be discussed."

Nan Xu sat down and said, "To be honest, I regret helping you lie and conspiring with you to frame my sister. What if she finds out and ignores me?"

"She won't know." Mu Yichen said.

When he first learned that she was divorced, he immediately found Nan Xu and put on a show.

In the hope that she would marry him.

Nan Xi is stubborn and once she is hurt in marriage, she will never trust men again.

So, he could only take the risk.

Fortunately, everything went better than he expected.

And the relationship between him and Nan Xi is getting better and better.

As time went by, he had forgotten that marrying Nan Xi was a premeditated deception.

Nan Xu shook his head and glanced at Mu Yichen worriedly. "My sister hates being deceived the most. If she knew that we teamed up to deceive her, she would be so angry."

Nan Xu originally only thought about his sister's sadness and pain after the divorce.

So, after knowing Mu Yichen's idea, he did not object and even cooperated with him in acting out a play.

Of course, he trusted Mu Yichen, and he would not let her sister suffer any loss in terms of either ability or character.

However, so much time has passed since the incident, and Nan Xu is feeling more and more uneasy.

If his sister found out, she would definitely be angry and blame him for colluding with Mu Yichen to deceive her.

Thinking of this possibility, Nan Xu couldn't help but worry.

He almost let the cat out of the bag just now. He even had the urge to tell everything so that he wouldn't be so worried.

Mu Yichen was silent for a long time, "I'll think about it."

The two stayed in the lounge for a long time. When they came out, Nan Xi was greeting the guests who came to the art exhibition.

"Mrs. Mu is so lucky. Her brother is talented and her husband is also excellent."

Someone came up and praised with a smile.

When someone praises, there will naturally be someone else who criticizes.

Of course, it wasn't in front of Nan Xi, but the voice was loud enough for everyone present to hear it.

"What's so great about it? A woman who's been married twice. If Mu Yichen didn't rely on her family's wealth and her brother's ability, would he marry her?"

"I heard that Mr. Mu still refuses to acknowledge her as his granddaughter-in-law. What is the status of the Mu family? Why would they marry someone who no one else wants? I wonder what Mr. Mu thinks."

"What else can I think? It's all about cooperation and the scene."

The sound of discussion entered Nan Xi's ears.

After hearing the last part, she didn't want to endure it any longer.

She sneered and walked forward to the people who were talking about her. "You are right. Mu Yichen only likes me because my family is rich and my brother is capable. If you have the ability, you can also find a rich father or a rich brother. If you don't have it, please shut up and stop talking behind my back."

After Nan Xi finished speaking, the person in front of her looked grim.

Someone brave enough stood up and said, "Miss Nan, you don't even have the decency to do this. We were just joking, but you took it so seriously."

Nan Xi's eyes fell on the water glass beside her.

He picked up a glass of water and poured it on the head of the person in front of him.

After the other party screamed, Nan Xi said calmly, "I was just joking, why did you take it so seriously? It's not that serious."

"you……"

Before the other party could say anything unpleasant, Mu Yichen had already come to Nan Xi and said, "My wife is right. If you can't take a joke, don't make jokes about others casually. It makes you look very uncultured."

Mu Yichen protected him like this, and those who were gossiping just now shut up.

The Mu family is snobbish in all walks of life, and no one wants to offend the Mu family because of a small matter.

Just now, everyone just said it casually, and thought that Mu Yichen would not care about this second-married wife at all, but they did not expect that he would actually stand up and speak for her.

Nan Xu stood aside for a long time. After everyone shut up, he called the security guards, "Kick them out! From now on, these people are not allowed to enter my place again."

How dare you bully his sister?

Several people who were talking behind the back were kicked out.

Before leaving, several people shouted that they were wrong, apologized to Nan Xi, and begged her to give them a chance, saying that they did not mean it.

Nan Xi watched them struggle and ignored them.

They clearly did it on purpose.

If a person can't even control his own mouth, what else can he do?

Without the gossip behind people's backs, the exhibition became much quieter.

After it was over, Mu Yichen took Nan Xi away.

Sitting in the car, Nan Xi didn't care about what had just happened. She said to Mu Yichen, "You helped my brother organize this art exhibition, right?"

She knew Mu Yichen's abilities, so this wasn't too difficult for him.

Moreover, Nan Xi could tell that some of the works in it were definitely not ordinary pieces. Such works must have been found with the help of Mu Yichen.

She was grateful that he could support her brother's career.

"Thank you." Nan Xi said with a smile.

"How can I thank you?" Mu Yichen looked at Nan Xi, put his arm around her waist, and brought her into his arms.

Nan Xi was pulled suddenly and fell into his arms. Guessing what he meant, her face immediately turned red. She leaned over and kissed him on the lips lightly.

This was the first time Nan Xi took the initiative to kiss him.

Mu Yichen's whole body stiffened, as if an electric shock spread to every part of his limbs and bones.

When she let go of his hand and tried to escape, he pressed the back of her head and deepened the kiss.

The moment they parted, Nan Xi leaned on Mu Yichen's shoulder, recalling his care for her and the scene of him standing up for her today. The corners of her mouth slowly curled up, and her heart couldn't help but feel warm.

"Mu Yichen, why do you like me?" Nan Xi asked.

In fact, what those people said was right. With Mu Yichen's identity and status, many ladies from famous families flocked to him.

But he chose her.

If she hadn't married Qin Xiaoze, perhaps they would have been a good match.

But for the Mu family, her status as a second marriage did not make her worthy of Mu Yichen.

But after being with Mu Yichen for so long, Nan Xi could feel that his attitude towards her was very sincere, and he treated her sincerely.

Nan Xi finished speaking without waiting for Mu Yichen's reply.

He turned around and looked over in surprise.

I saw Mu Yichen looking out the window, as if he was distracted, and I didn't know what he was thinking about.

"Mu Yichen." Nan Xi shook his arm.

Mu Yichen finally came back to his senses and looked at Nan Xi, "What's wrong?"

Nan Xi couldn't bear to ask again, so she shook her head and said, "Nothing."

Mu Yichen had something on his mind. For some reason, what Nan Xu said in the lounge kept coming to his mind.

He said that if Nan Xi knew that they had lied to her, she would definitely be angry.

Will she leave him because of anger?

The more Mu Yichen thought about it, the more worried he became.

He took Nan Xi's hand, held it tightly, and asked nervously, "If, I mean if, if you found out that someone had cheated on you, what would you do?"
