Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Uncle, Aunty, I’m Mu Chengxi. Leave Wenxin to me in the future. Don’t worry,
I’ll definitely protect her. I won’t let anything happen to her.”
Wen Xin listened to Mu Chengxi’s sincere and serious words. She turned her head to look at him and curled her lips slightly. So this was what it felt like to bring her boyfriend to meet his parents.
After standing quietly for a few minutes, Wen Xin lit a stick of incense and placed it in front of her parents’ graves. She kowtowed four times respectfully before slowly standing up.
Mu Chengxi, the noble crown prince of the capital, did not even bend his knees in front of Old Madam Mu. At this moment, he did something that surprised Wen Xin.
He followed Wen Xin’s actions without hesitation, kowtowing to Wen Xin’s parents. He was also silently thanking Wen Xin’s mother for protecting Wen Xin’s life during the crisis, allowing him to get to know Wen Xin.
Wen Xin looked deeply at Mu Chengxi. Her heart was a little restless. His actions actually made her heart feel warm.
As if noticing Wen Xin’s gaze, Mu Chengxi stood up and hugged Wen Xin in his arms. He chuckled.” I’ve paid my respects to my parents-in-law in advance!”
“Shameless.” Mu Chengxi’s words washed away Wen Xin’s emotions that had just risen in her heart. She smiled helplessly at Mu Chengxi.
She broke free from Mu Chengxi’s embrace and walked to Tan Mingyao’s grave. She squatted down and lit an incense stick.
“Uncle Tan, Xingyue has fully recovered. She’s studying in Ice City now. She’s doing well, and she’ll get better in the future. I’ve also found your things. Don’t worry, everything is going well.”
The two of them stayed for a while before Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi went down the mountain.
Mu Chengxi sized up his surroundings and seemed to understand why Wen Xin had not come to pay his respects for a long time.
The two of them returned to Ice City. Mu Dong was already waiting for Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin at the airport. Gu Yanzhe accompanied Liang Luoyu to Nanqi Hospital, which Wen Xin had arranged in advance.
Mu Bei brought Wen Xin’s two pets to the pet shop to buy daily necessities for the two little babies. They had both also had a bath and looked beautiful.
“Are you going to school or the hospital?”
” Let’s go to the hospital to see Tan Xingyue. Although we need to settle the school issue, not now. I want to see how arrogant she can be and let her enjoy the joy of success.”
Wen Xin got into the car and took out her phone to play a game. She had already confirmed that this matter was related to Geng Qiu, but she was not in a hurry to get rid of Geng Qiu.
Su Li had also heard about Tan Xingyue’s injury at the hospital. She was worried that Tan Xingyue would steal Geng Qiu’s limelight, but now that Tan Xingyue was in trouble, she was very happy.
In her heart, as long as Geng Qiu could get first place in the piano competition, the Zhao family would definitely not reject the engagement between Geng Qiu and Zhao Yuzheng. That way, Geng Qiu’s image could be restored.
“Why are you so happy?
It had to be said that Zhuge Jingming’s medicine was really good. After a few days of treatment and Zhuge Jingming’s medicine, Geng Shikui’s body recovered greatly. All the equipment on his body had been removed.
Now, other than being unable to move one side of his body, he could still stand up and sit for a while. He could communicate with Su Li normally.
“I’m just happy that Qiuqiu will participate in the piano competition soon.
Shikui, you have to get well soon. I’ll bring you to watch Qiuqiu’s competition.”
Geng Shikui looked at Su Li’s happy face and then at his body that couldn’t move. He sighed helplessly. “Sigh, I’m afraid I will embarrass Qiuqiu like this!”
‘ How could that be? Everyone says that you’re blessed. I went to the office to take a look this morning. Qian Jinyu said that Geng Zewei hadn’t been to the office for two days. Did he run away after knowing that you’ve recovered?”
“I don’t know how that child became like that either. Now, the Geng Corporation has been ruined by him. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have let him come back in the first place!”
Speaking of this, Geng Shikui was very regretful. He wouldn’t have let a wolf into his house if he had not done that in a moment of impatience.
Su Li looked at Geng Shikui’s vexed expression and hesitated for a moment. She was considering whether she should keep the project that she had prepared for the Zhao family or give it away.
If the project was given to the Zhao family, they would be willing to let Geng Qiu and Zhao Yuzheng get engaged. However, if they choose to let Geng Shikui make a comeback, they can then control their destiny. She is contemplating which approach will maximize her gains.
“Su Li…What are you thinking about? Do you also think that it’s my fault? You…
Ever since Geng Shikui regained consciousness, he had become extremely cautious. He felt that he was useless now and was worried that Su Li would leave him.
‘ Don’t think too much about it. Although Geng Zewei sold the core project of the Geng Corporation, we still have other industries that won’t collapse so easily. After the rare earth is sold, the funds will be recovered. You can rest in peace. Qiuqiu, the Geng Corporation and I need you!”
Su Li hugged Geng Shikui and leaned her head on his shoulder. This was the only man she could rely on. She hoped that he could get better.
Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi approached hospital, drawing many glances. The man exuded handsomeness and composure, while the woman appeared free-spirited and unrestrained. Together, their stunning looks made it hard for people not to sneak a few extra glances.
“Elder sister Wen Xin…” At this moment, a crisp voice sounded from the corridor at the side. Ling Xu ‘Er had just finished her psychological persuasion and came out of Nan Xu’s office when she saw Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin.
Ling Xu ‘Er ran to Wen Xin and stopped a step away from her. Her eyes were filled with confidence, completely different from before.
Wen Xin raised her hand and pinched Ling Xu ‘Er’s cheek. Her lips curled into a devilish smile.” You’re in good shape, little girl.”
“I still have to thank Sister. If not for Sister, I might have lived in darkness for the rest of my life!” Ling Xu ‘Er smiled sweetly at Wen Xin.
Then she seemed to have thought of something. She turned her head to look at
Mu Chengxi and called out timidly, “Uncle Mu.”
“Did you just see me? You weren’t like this in the past. In the past, you saw me at first sight!” Mu Chengxi saw that Ling Xu ‘Er was in such a good state and could not help but tease the little girl who had grown up under his watch.
“You already said it was in the past. Now, Sister Xin is the most eye-catching in my heart!” As she spoke, Ling Xu ‘Er boldly walked to Wen Xin’s side and hugged her arm coquettishly.
Wen Xin looked at the lively and cheerful girl, feeling quite pleased. She playfully raised her eyebrows at Ling Xuer and said, “I’ll take you to see another beautiful young lady. I guarantee you’ll like her. Just like you, she’s sweet!” Wen Xin let go of Mu Chengxi’s hand and led Ling Xu ‘er to Tan Xingyue’s ward..
