After a night's time, Mu Yanyu's feet had clearly recovered a lot. Thinking about leaving this place today, her heart immediately felt a surge of reluctance. Although she didn't stay here for long, she clearly felt the warmth of home during this short period of time.

When the Mu clan went bankrupt, those who had been on good terms with the Mu clan immediately retreated three feet. If it wasn't for her uncle's presence, she and her brother would have been completely at a loss as to how to handle her parents' affairs.

Later on, her brother got sick, so she decided to live here.

His feet still hurt.

Step by step, she slowly walked down the stairs.

When Aunt Cheng saw this, she hastily went to help her up. "Miss Mu, why did you come down? I thought you hadn't woken up yet, so I didn't bring you breakfast." Her tone was obviously apologetic.

Mu Yanyu smiled at her, "It's alright, I also want to come down and take a walk."

"When Young Master left, you specifically reminded me to take good care of you." Madam Cheng had a gentle expression as she said, "Miss Mu, I feel that young master treats you very well."

Mu Yanyi nodded. Sometimes she also felt that Chi Chengxuan really treated her very well, but sometimes he treated her very badly. In short, he had an unpredictable personality, causing her to be unable to understand his true emotions.

He didn't know what kind of attitude he had towards her. Was he still brooding over the past matters, or was he simply looking for someone to resolve his physiological needs?

Regardless of the reason, she only needed to endure her fate.

After breakfast, Mu Yanfei received a threatening call from Su Manlin.

"Mu Yanyu, do you take my words as nothing?"

"Isn't he still here today?"

Just as Mu Yanyu finished her sentence, her phone was suddenly snatched away by someone. When she looked up and saw that it was Chi Chengxuan, she couldn't help but be startled.

"Is the life of your uncle and brother not important to you at all? "Do you believe that I will let someone else chop your brother into pieces right now?!" Su Manlin threatened ferociously. She couldn't care so much in order to drive her away from Chi Chengxuan.

Chi Chengxuan's expression turned darker and darker. If he hadn't heard these words himself, he truly wouldn't have imagined that the gentle and generous her would be such a ruthless woman.

"Mu Yanyu, you're mute!" I can do it! "

"I am Chi Chengxuan."

"…" Hearing his indifferent tone, Su Manlin suddenly panicked. It was obviously Mu Yanyu who was on the phone just now, so how did she turn into Chi Chengxuan?

"She won't leave my side!"

He hung up the phone after answering Su Manlin's question for her, and left his phone on the sofa, looking at the confused Mu Yanfei with an indifferent expression.

Mu Yufei didn't dare raise her head to look at him, afraid of being scolded by him.

But, didn't he go to the company?

Why did he suddenly return?

"Stay here with your peace of mind, your brother and uncle. I will settle down."

Mu Yanyi suddenly raised her head to look at him with a confused expression. Why was his reaction totally different from what she imagined?

She couldn't be dreaming right now, right?

It felt so unreal.

She pinched the flesh on her thigh, causing her to frown in pain. Since it hurt, then it definitely wasn't a dream.

Her reaction made him feel a little helpless.

"Do you understand me?" he asked coldly, staring at her.

She nodded her head, indicating that she understood.

He sat down beside her. If he hadn't returned just because he was worried about her, would she have listened to Su Manlin's words and left?

She had dared to use him as a shield at her cousin's engagement party, so how could she bear with his threats against her? Did she not have the ability to protect her and her family?

"If something like that happens again in the future, you must tell me."

Originally, he wanted to ruthlessly scold her a few times, but after thinking about it, he decided to give up. This way, her weak little heart wouldn't be able to bear such additional grievances.

"But …" Wouldn't it be troublesome if he were to tell him everything?

Su Manlin was also very important to him. How could she say that his benefactor was wrong in front of him?

She'll try to avoid those people, especially Summerlee.

There was also the scumbag girls Qi Xinghuan and Mu Zhiqing.

"Do you think Su Manlin is the woman I love?" Chi Chengxuan felt that she must still be thinking like this. Last time, he had clearly told her that he wasn't related to Su Manlin like that, so why couldn't she understand him?

"Looks like it." She still answered his question honestly.

Why did he feel it was difficult to communicate with her? Was this the so-called generation gap?

However, he was still only nine years older than her. It wasn't as if he were twenty or thirty years older, so there was already a generation gap between them. This truly gave people a headache.

"I think there's something wrong with your eyes. You have to cure it!" He threw down these words irritably and got up to go upstairs.

Mu Yan Fei closed her eyes for a while before opening them again. She could clearly see everything in the room. There was nothing wrong with her eyes, why did he suddenly scold her like that? It was really strange.

There was something wrong with his eyes. He needed treatment!

Although Chi Chengxuan had said that he would settle her brother and uncle, she was still worried. Thus, she gave Mu Jinghao a call.

"Sis, are you coming to the hospital today?"

Hearing Mu Jinghao's clear voice, Mu Yanyu felt a lot more at ease, "Jing Hao, I'll have to trouble you to take care of uncle for the time being. I accidentally twisted my ankle yesterday."

"Is it serious?" Mu Jinghao nervously asked, "Why don't I go over to see you now?"

"No need, my feet are already much better. Don't worry, you just need to take good care of uncle."

"Alright then, you have to take care of yourself."

"Yes."

"Boom …"

"Jing Hao, what's wrong?" Mu Yanyu nervously asked when she heard a strange sound.

"I'm fine, it was a nurse who dropped a few drops on the floor." Mu Jinghao explained to her.

Mu Yanyu let out a sigh of relief, but she was still worried. She was really afraid that Su Manlin would suddenly do something crazy.

After ending the call with Mu Jinghao, she stood up and went upstairs. She first returned to her room and did not see Chi Chengxuan. Thinking that it was very possible that he was in the study, she limped her way to the study.

The door to the study wasn't closed. She gently opened the door and peeked half a head in to see if Chi Chengxuan was inside.

"What's inside?"
