Chapter 66
Mu Qingxuan's fingers turned white as she clutched the corner of her clothes. She stepped forward with a hint of embarrassment in her voice.
"Grandma, they... they are my biological parents."
As soon as these words were spoken, the living room fell into an eerie silence.
Old Mrs. Huo's chin, which was originally raised high, froze in mid-air, and her hands were shaking as she pointed at Mu Dashan and his wife.
She glared at Mu Qingxuan fiercely, and the anger in her chest seemed to be suppressed, and she snorted coldly.
"Good, very good!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked away, picking up the cat, his heels slamming heavily on the floor, venting his dissatisfaction with every step.
When the carved door slammed shut, shaking the Western oil paintings on the wall, Mu Qingxuan's face instantly turned cold.
She looked at Mu Dashan who was still drooling at the chandelier and Sun Qiumei who was rummaging through the drawers of the coffee table, her tone cold.
"This is not a rural area. There are no spittoons for spitting and no earthen beds for sitting anywhere."
"You better keep quiet."
Mu Qianqian twisted her waist and came closer, with a hypocritical look of grievance on her face.
"But sister, it's not easy for parents to come here, are we going to let them suffer?"
"You are the daughter-in-law of the Huo family. They should give face to the Buddha instead of the monk."
Mu Qingxuan raised her eyes and looked at her, her gaze seemed to be frozen.
"Qianqian, have you forgotten that you repeatedly framed me and made me lose face in front of Grandma Huo?"
When Sun Qiumei heard this, she shuddered.
She glanced at the two sisters suspiciously and asked, "What's going on?"
Mu Qingxuan spoke first: "Qianqian had been acting like a demon before, which was embarrassing and shameful. Grandma Huo was mad at me for a long time because of this."
"I am just the daughter-in-law of the Huo family, and my status is very low."
She paused, and glanced at Mu Dashan and Sun Qiumei: "Dad, Mom, if you continue to make trouble like this and make the Huo family unhappy, and drive me out with you, what should I do?"
"By then, no matter what you want to do, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it."
Mu Dashan was just about to lie down on the leather sofa, but when he heard this, he froze in place.
The imported lighter that Sun Qiumei had just touched fell to the ground with a "click". The two looked at each other and withdrew their hands and feet awkwardly.
Mu Qianqian bit her lip, a hint of unwillingness flashed in her eyes, but she didn't dare to speak again.
Aunt Wang, who was hiding at the kitchen door, almost laughed out loud. She secretly glanced at Mu Qingxuan's straight back.
In the entire Huo family, Mu Qingxuan has the highest status now!
Cui Lirong treated Mu Qingxuan as her own daughter.
But seeing Mu Qingxuan's serious look of scaring people, Wang Ma couldn't help but admire her.
It turns out that Mu Qingxuan, who is usually very serious, can act better than the stars on TV.
Soon, Cui Lirong and others also got off work.
After being reminded by Mu Qingxuan, Mu Dashan and Sun Qiumei dared not act up anymore. They greeted Huo Jianye and Cui Lirong politely and sat on the sofa obediently.
Mu Qingxuan pulled Huo Changfeng back to the room.
"Those are my parents. They came to the capital specially this time. They must have something to do."
Huo Changfeng raised his eyebrows: "They are your parents. If they really need help, then..."
"no."
Before Huo Changfeng could finish his words, he was interrupted by Mu Qingxuan.
"Based on my understanding of them, they are most likely here for my disappointing brother."
A hint of coldness flashed across Mu Qingxuan's eyes.
Mu Dashan and Sun Qiumei waited long and hard, and finally gave birth to a son.
Mu Dongjie was spoiled by the two of them and grew up with a fearless character, like a devil.
Mu Qingxuan still remembers that when Mu Dongjie was less than ten years old, he could already crawl under girls' skirts.
He was caught by the girl's parents and was almost beaten to death.
It was her grandfather who swallowed his pride and begged for mercy.
The man let Mu Dongjie go for the sake of Mu Qingxuan's grandfather.
Moreover, every time Mu Dongjie got into trouble, he would put the blame on Mu Qingxuan, causing Mu Qingxuan to be beaten up by Mu Dashan.
If Mu Qingxuan still has a little gratitude for Mu Dashan and Sun Qiumei's upbringing in her heart.
Then she would only feel disgust towards Mu Dongjie.
"No matter what they ask for, don't agree to it."
Mu Qingxuan rubbed against Huo Changfeng like a kitten.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and rested her cheek on his warm shoulder, her hair brushing across his chin.
"Hubby, if possible, you'd better behave a little bit worse to me at the dinner table later."
Mu Qingxuan looked straight into Huo Changfeng's eyes: "It's better to let them all know that my life in the Huo family is very difficult, so that they may restrain themselves a little."
Huo Changfeng held her in his arms and said in surprise: "This..."
He smiled bitterly: "This may be a bit difficult."
Mu Qingxuan raised her head and blinked her big watery eyes. Her eyelashes cast tiny shadows under the light.
Her fingers unconsciously stroked the buttons of Huo Changfeng's shirt: "If we don't do this, they will definitely push their limits."
Huo Changfeng frowned and his Adam's apple rolled.
"no."
He tightened his arms and held Mu Qingxuan tightly in his arms: "I can't bear to see you being wronged."
Huo Changfeng's nose rubbed against the top of her head, and his breath was filled with the faint herbal scent emanating from Mu Qingxuan's body.
"If there's anything, I'll take care of it."
"But......"
Mu Qingxuan raised her face, slightly parted her red lips, and the hot air she exhaled brushed across Huo Changfeng's neck.
"Just this once, okay?"
Her fingertips gently brushed across Huo Changfeng's chest, feeling his violent heartbeat: "I promise, I'm just pretending."
"If mom blames you, I will definitely speak up for you."
This mother, of course, refers to Cui Lirong.
Mu Qingxuan said, pressing her cheek against his chest, and said in a soft voice: "My Director Huo is so smart, he will definitely be able to act like one."
Huo Changfeng looked down at the person who was acting coquettishly in his arms and felt his heart burning.
He stroked Mu Qingxuan's red earlobe with his thumb and sighed deeply.
His voice was low and hoarse: "You know, I can never refuse you."
He leaned over, his warm lips brushing her ear: "But this won't happen again."
Mu Qingxuan's eyebrows curved, like a little fox who had successfully stolen something, and she kissed him lightly on the chin.
"I knew you were the best!"
She struggled to break free from Huo Changfeng's arms, but was grabbed by the wrist.
Huo Changfeng pulled her hard, brought her back into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her lips hard.
Mu Qingxuan's cheeks flushed and she punched his chest.
She straightened her hair and clothes: "It's a deal then, don't be soft-hearted later."
Huo Changfeng looked at her charming appearance, a smile spreading in his eyes, "Got it, I'll do as you say."
