She got up and saw Mu Nanxun sitting on the edge of the bed with a cold expression, his eyes wide with anger. The previous confusion had completely disappeared, replaced by a furious rage that seemed to want to burn her to ashes.
Xia Bingqing's heart skipped a beat. How could he have woken up so quickly? She stammered, "..."
"W-what's wrong?"
She still held a sliver of hope, wishing that he hadn't recognized her as Yi Yi.
He's drunk so much, he definitely won't recognize her.
However, Mu Nanxun's next words completely extinguished her illusions.
"You're not Yi Yi, who are you?"
"No, I am Yi Yi~ Nanxun, it's been three years. I've been away from you for three years. Have you forgotten me?"
Xia Bingqing anxiously tried to grab Mu Nanxun's hand, but he ruthlessly shook her off. He stumbled towards the door, accidentally bumping into the doorknob.
"You're not Yi Yi, you're not... My Yi Yi has never called me that, you're not... who are you...?"
He was like a raging lion, exuding a dangerous, bloodthirsty aura.
Xia Bingqing only realized now that he had such a terrifying side.
"I don't know, I don't know what you're talking about..."
She shook her head frantically, worried about his further questioning, then quickly opened the door and ran out.
After this incident, Xia Bingqing was unusually well-behaved for a few days, only offering a greeting to Mu Nanxun when she saw him. She was worried he would ask about what happened that night. Mu Nanxun also acted as if nothing had happened; at home, apart from Guoguo, he rarely spoke to anyone else.
Guoguo is usually obedient and sensible, but occasionally Mu Nanxun can't do anything about her.
Especially when it comes to Guoguo eating vegetables.
Early in the morning, the two, one big and one small, started arguing.
The poor little thing, sobbing, jumped off the stool and went upstairs.
"Guoguo, where are you going? Come and eat breakfast."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Guoguo turned around, puffed out her cheeks, put her hands on her hips, and revealed her round little belly.
"No, the vegetables don't taste good. Daddy bullies me, I don't want to stay in this house anymore, I'm running away to find Mommy so she can protect me. Humph!"
"..."
Uh, ran away from home? And now he's looking for his mommy. Are all kids these days so clever?!
"Guoguo, Mommy isn't here, but Aunt Xia is."
Xia Bingqing came downstairs, her makeup exquisite, and joined their conversation with a smile. "Besides, if Guoguo is willing, she can call me Mommy, and I will love her just like my own daughter."
"No, baby has a mommy, why should he call someone else's mommy?"
Little Guoguo pouted. She didn't like this Aunt Xia; she was always bothering her dad.
Although Aunt Xia seemed to treat her well, always speaking gently, and Grandma Li from her family had told her that Aunt Xia had even saved her when she was little, she was still grateful to Aunt Xia because children should know how to repay kindness. However, she simply didn't like her, and she didn't know why.
Xiao Guoguo's unintentional remark made Xia Bingqing's expression change. She walked to Mu Nanxun's side, moved her chair aside, sat down, and forced a smile, "Yes...yes, Guoguo is right."
Mu Nanxun remained silent. Little Guoguo, with her tummy sticking out, blinked her dark, grape-like eyes and said, "Daddy, baby really ran away from home!"
"Go ahead~" Mu Nanxun leaned back lazily. "Don't rush back once you're out. You won't eat properly anyway when you come back."
