Uncle Zhang, who had been left standing aside for a long time, stepped forward respectfully and bowed to answer, "Miss Xia, her name is Yi Yi. She was recently hired to take care of the young lady."
"Brother Xun agreed?"
Xia Bingqing knew that Mu Nanxun had a good relationship with the eldest daughter of the Mu family, so the person he found to take care of her must be the person he trusted most.
"Young Master was initially reluctant, but Miss seems to like her quite a bit, so he let her stay for the time being. Oh, and there's another one named Liang Xiaoru. They both have a one-month trial period, and after a month, we'll decide who will ultimately stay."
So that's how it is.
If Yi Yi is the one who stays in the end, then she'll be spending all her time with Mu Nanxun, and there's no guarantee that nothing bad will happen to her. It seems the only option is…
"Uncle Zhang, we must carefully vet the person taking care of Sister Wanling; we can't afford any mistakes. Oh, by the way, you just mentioned someone named Liang Xiaoru, she..."
"What are you all doing standing at the door?"
It was Mu Nanxun's voice.
Xia Bingqing didn't care about Uncle Zhang anymore. She ran up to Mu Nanxun and reached out to take the suit jacket from his hand.
"Nanxun, you're back. I've been waiting for you for so long."
Upon seeing Xia Bingqing and Xia An, Mu Nanxun frowned slightly, casually passing the coat he was holding past Xia Bingqing and handing it to Uncle Zhang.
"Why are you here?"
"Ah, I...we, we are...it's my dad. He said I should come over more often to deepen our relationship." Xia Bingqing's hand froze in the air for a moment before she awkwardly lowered it.
Xiao Fang chimed in from the side, "Boss, I told you this morning that the young master and young lady of the Xia family were coming to visit. You haven't forgotten so quickly, have you?"
"Hmm." He hadn't forgotten anything; he'd never remembered it at all.
Mu Nanxun's gaze pierced Xia An coldly. "And what about you? What are you doing here?"
Xia An felt a chill run down her spine under his gaze. Could it be that Mu Nanxun was still unhappy with him because of what happened at the club last time?
"Yes, brother-in-law, there was a misunderstanding at the club last time, so I came with my sister to apologize to you."
Mu Nanxun didn't reply, but walked into the hall with her lips tightly pressed together. The others followed cautiously.
Everyone could see that Mu Nanxun was unhappy, but no one knew why he was unhappy.
As the group arrived at the restaurant, Yi Yi hopped out, carrying a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs that Li Ma had just made, humming a tune. This contrasted sharply with the oppressive atmosphere around them.
"Hey, you're back!"
When Yi saw Mu Nanxun, her eyes lit up, and the corners of her mouth turned up, naturally revealing eight snow-white teeth.
Mu Nanxun's heart skipped a beat, and her tightly pursed lips unconsciously relaxed. Her expression remained serious, but a smile had already appeared in her dark eyes.
What's wrong with this girl today? She usually looks so bitter and resentful when she sees him, but today she's so happy.
Perhaps because he was in a good mood, Mu Nanxun was about to open his mouth to reply. But what Yi Yi said next made the corner of his mouth twitch involuntarily.
"Can we eat now?!" Yi Yi's voice was filled with undisguised excitement.
Oh, well, I thought she was excited because she saw him, but it turns out she's happy because dinner is ready.
That's honest enough!
That wasn't enough, Yi Yi added, feeling wronged, "Aunt Li said we can't eat until you come back, but I'm starving."
