"Putting everything else aside, since you're already here, why not have a simple meal at home? And tell us about all the strange and wonderful things you've encountered over the years. If you're so inclined, teach my brother, whose emotional intelligence is pitifully low, how to make a girl happy." With that, Mu Wenya turned her head and rushed to Li Ma, who was standing with her hands at her sides, and instructed, "Li Ma, go to the kitchen and make some dishes that Young Master Ouyang likes, and also get a bottle of red wine from the winery. Don't be impolite."
“Yes, Miss.” Aunt Li nodded and turned to walk towards the kitchen.
Ouyang originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Mu Wenya's smiling face, he couldn't bring himself to say it. He smiled and said, "Since Sister Wenya is so kind, I won't pretend to be polite." But it's really too much for me to ask Mu Nanxun to teach her how to make girls happy.
Ouyang didn't say the last sentence.
Seeing that the two had been talking in the courtyard for a long time, Mu Nanxun said, "Since you're going to eat here, come inside. What kind of behavior is it to stand outside?"
As he spoke, Mu Nanxun pushed Mu Wenya's wheelchair toward the restaurant, with Ouyang following behind.
“Brother Xun…”
Xia Bingqing spoke with some frustration. She had come out with Mu Wenya and had been standing there for quite some time, but Brother Xun hadn't given her a single glance the entire time. Now that they were going inside, no one noticed her, as if she didn't exist at all. Was she really that insignificant in Brother Xun's eyes?
That cry of "Brother Xun" successfully drew everyone's attention. Mu Nanxun stopped, frowned, and asked,
"Didn't I tell you to rest in your room for a while? If you feel unwell anywhere, I'll have Xiao Fang call a doctor."
"No need, Brother Xun, I'm much better now. I'm just scared when I'm alone. I always feel like another assassin might pop out from somewhere, just like that night."
As she spoke, tears welled up in Xia Bingqing's eyes, and her pitiful appearance was heartbreaking.
When the topic of that night came up, Mu Nanxun felt a pang of guilt. Although Xia Bingqing wasn't seriously injured, she had risked her life to take a bullet for him. Counting the time she saved him in the jungle, this was the second time she had saved him.
"No, I won't let that happen again. Xiao Fang has already increased the number of men in black guarding the area, so no one will break in again. You should focus on recovering and not overthink things."
"Yes, as long as Brother Xun doesn't leave me, I'll be good and heal my injuries."
Xia Bingqing suddenly leaned gently against Mu Nanxun's chest, reluctant to let go.
"Ahem, Mu Nanxun, you're a real iron tree—you don't bloom until you do, and when you do, it's astonishing! Tell me quickly, what was that about just now, and what's this about this one?"
Ouyang resumed his nonchalant smile and teased. But then he saw Mu Nanxun frown, her gaze passing over him and looking behind him. He followed her gaze and saw Yi Yi's resolute back as she turned away.
"Is that Little Confused? I'm not mistaken, it's her. Oh no, she thinks she saw you two hugging." Ouyang shouted fearlessly.
Mu Nanxun, of course, also saw Yi Yi. He knew she must have misunderstood something and was about to explain to her when she ran off before he could even speak. At this moment, Ouyang, oblivious to the danger, made sarcastic remarks. If looks could kill, Ouyang would have been dead long ago.
