The atmosphere between the two of them in the carriage was extremely awkward and silent. Mu Jinxi was unwilling to pay attention to him, and because Murong Shaoyang was tired from a night of sleep, he was also unwilling to talk much. Mu Jinxi didn't want to speak, because she had a nagging feeling that if she did, she wouldn't be able to contain her anger. When they were almost home, Mu Jinxi finally opened her mouth and said the first sentence between the two of them, "That Avril, are you related to her in any way?"
Murong Shaoyang had already calmed down after this period of time. After hearing Mu Jinxi's question again, he could only sigh helplessly: "Why are you still hesitating over this question? Have you been holding your breath all this time?"
Mu Jinxi did not answer, but her silent attitude gave him the best answer. Murong Shaoyang said, "If I say I don't have any, would you believe me?" Mu Jinxi asked: "You really didn't do it?" Murong Shaoyang laughed helplessly: "You have doubts in your heart when I say that you don't trust me, so no matter what I say, you won't believe me. "If so, what difference does it make to you what answer I am?"
Mu Jinxi was still unwilling to give up, "I just want an answer. No matter what reason you give me, I don't like your attitude of not willing to even tell lies."
Murong Shaoyang was astonished and his temper rose, "Are you saying that you would rather I lie to you than believe me?"
Mu Jinxi shook her head: "That's not what I meant, it's just a metaphor. Forget it, I don't want to dwell on this issue anymore. Let's go home. " Saying that, she opened the car door, but Murong Shaoyang's temper caused him to pull the door open, preventing her from leaving: "No, it's already this late, if we do not resolve this problem, it will still be noisy when we go back. "Bebe is already asleep. I still have a lot of things to do tomorrow, and I have to finish them tonight."
Mu Jinxi wanted to struggle, but Murong Shaoyang had always been a tyrant, she could not struggle free, and had no choice but to return back to normal.
"Little Xi, why do you always suspect that I'm related to someone else? Do you really not believe me that much? You know my identity and nature of work, how many women are lusting after me every day, not to mention that Avril is even a person from the entertainment circle. You should have already prepared yourself for this, why are you making trouble now? "
Mu Jinxi pouted unhappily: "It's not because of how you and that Avril are, it's because of you … You are not a quiet person, and I do not feel at ease. "
"How am I not a quiet person?" Murong Shaoyang felt that Mu Jinxi's words were extremely strange, as if he had unknowingly put on a huge hat. He didn't know how to remove the sh * t bowl that was resting on his head. It didn't feel good.
Mu Jinxi puffed up her chest, and then finally caught herself on fire. "For someone like you with a past record, it's not strange for anything to happen to you."
Murong Shaoyang was speechless, and after a long while he finally said in a low voice: "I realised that I really cannot do bad things. Even if a person did a hundred good things, others would just treat him as a good person and praise him or her. But once you do a bad thing, those who have said hello will criticize you, criticize you, and will always remember a bad thing you did, and will always come up with something from time to time. Even if you were to continue doing good deeds or things that seemed like bad deeds in the future, other people would think that you would end up repeating the same mistakes from back then. As for them, they will never care about how many good things you have done. Those things that seem to be fake are things that happened a long time ago. " He sighed and said, "Little Xi, right now, I am the one who was attacked. My heart for you has never changed, even if I was not so firm, had wavered, did a lot of things that let you down. But Little Xi, the person I love the most has always been you, and has always been you. No matter how many twists and turns I take, how many grievances you have to bear, in the end, the two of us ended up together. That is fate, that is fate. I know that this bad thing I've done has caused you to feel insecure ever since, and I admit that I've been making you nervous all day because of my identity. I'm sorry. But what I want to tell you is, no matter how many people outside are waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves, no matter how many people there are, the one I love will always be you. You will always be the number one in my heart, and will never change, forever. "
Mu Jinxi had long been crying because of Murong Shaoyang's words, and it was only when he had finished that she started to sob. Actually, it wasn't that she didn't want to believe in Murong Shaoyang, but she didn't know why she had been suspicious of him recently.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that, I just …"
"Alright, I won't say anymore. I know everything." Murong Shaoyang hugged her tightly, comforted her, and said: "I should be the one apologizing instead. "Alright, be good and stop crying."
Under Murong Shaoyang's gentle consoling, Mu Jinxi gradually calmed her feelings. She wiped her tears and looked at Murong Shaoyang with a bit of embarrassment. Murong Shaoyang couldn't help but laugh at her little girl's actions, and said: "Why do I feel that your emotions have been so unstable lately, and that you're always on the verge of throwing a tantrum?"
"Of course not!" Mu Jinxi said stubbornly, "You only came back a few times, how did you find out that I have a bad temper? I don't even think I have a bad temper. "
"Mm …" Murong Shaoyang looked for words to say, afraid that she would be angered again after he had coaxed her out of it. It's just that you're a little paranoid. You see, you're going to pester me for a long time just for this one unfounded incident. If it wasn't tonight, and if you were to tell me about you, would you lose face again? "
Mu Jinxi "puchi" laughed, "What, you're not planning on taking me in after losing face?"
Murong Shaoyang pretended to be very serious and said: "About this, I will need to think about it carefully."
"Hmm?" Mu Jinxi raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a threatening gaze. Murong Shaoyang laughed "Haha" and said, "Don't worry. She spent so much effort to obtain it, yet she lost it so easily? "If anyone dares to steal it away from me, I'll show them who's boss!"
Thus, this night's commotion could be considered to have passed. Mu Jinxi and Murong Shaoyang returned to their beds and chatted for a while longer before they both fell asleep. Because Murong Shaoyang still had to wake up early tomorrow morning, he did not let Mu Jinxi call him to wake up. When it was time, he stealthily packed everything up and kissed her face as she slept before turning around and leaving the house.
Mu Jinxi had only woken up at noon. When she looked at her watch, it was already eleven o'clock in the morning, she was immediately surprised. She quickly got up and saw that Mu Beibei's little friend was playing with tablets on the sofa. Seeing that Mu Jinxi had woken up, she immediately shouted out, "Mommy, you're finally awake!
Mu Jinxi was moved by Murong Shaoyang's carefulness, and felt that she had caused a ruckus without reason. He was so busy, yet he was so concerned for the two of them, so how could she act like she owed them?
With Mu Beibei accompanying him, Mu Jinxi finished the food Murong Shaoyang had brought over, it was very rich, and nutritious. After eating his fill, Mu Jinxi hugged Mu Beibei and sat in front of the TV, "Come, darling, accompany Mommy to watch the TV."
Actually, there was nothing to look at. The current program was just a thousand chapters long. It was unknown when Mu Beibei fell asleep, but touching his small face, he changed the stage in boredom. A stage which had flashed past immediately attracted her attention, causing Mu Jinxi to stiffen his back.
This was the entertainment news that had just been released today. It was a group of photos taken by the paparazzi. Originally, there would always be this kind of secret photos taken. However, this group was full of hype and excitement. Mu Jinxi recognized him. Although the face of the man in the photo was extremely blurry, she knew that this was her husband and this was Murong Shaoyang. And the women in the pictures, were none other than the Avril he saw last night!
This group of photos were only those exposed in the entertainment reports, and the host also said that Avril's company and Murong Shaoyang's assistant did not receive a precise reply regarding this matter. The two people also did not give any official response, as this was the latest news. However, the outflow of this group of photos was very clear. If nothing really happened, then the paparazzi team wouldn't have been able to take so many ambiguous photos. Not long after, Avril's management company issued an official statement saying that they did not oppose the close personal relationship between Avril and Young Master Murong. Furthermore, they did not oppose the further relationship between the two of them. This ambiguous reply caused a lot of misunderstandings and concerns to arise, and Avril's reputation soared. And Murong Shaoyang, for some unknown reason, did not give a reply. The reporter said that he could not contact the person in charge of the Murong’s, and that Murong Shaoyang did not seem to be in the company today. He didn't know if he should go and stay with Avril.
Mu Jinxi already didn't know what kind of mood she should have to receive this news, because she didn't know whether she should believe the media or believe Murong Shaoyang's mouth. If he was telling the truth, why were there these pictures? Even if the photo was fake, why would one of the participants, Avril, make such a declaration? It was obvious that what she said last night was one set, but today, in front of public entertainment, it was another set of words. Which one of them was the real one? Mu Jinxi was very confused, she felt her entire heart tangled up, and also very frustrated.
She immediately gave Murong Shaoyang a call. It was a private number, exclusive to two people. The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. Mu Jinxi immediately asked: "Murong Shaoyang, where are you?"
However, the person on the other end of the line deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Darling, I'm talking business outside. "Don't worry, I'll definitely be going home early today."
Murong Shaoyang seemed to completely not know what was going on, and as a woman who had schemes in mind, he naturally knew when to spread this kind of news that Murong Shaoyang would definitely resist, yet Murong Shaoyang didn't know. Mu Jinxi said: "Are you going back to the company tonight?"
Murong Shaoyang thought for a moment: "I should be going back, what's wrong?"
Mu Jinxi thought that no matter what, she still could not make a final judgement on this matter. She had to confirm it right in front of him, otherwise, it would be bad if she could create an image of him as she did last night. After all, the two of them had just finished quarreling, and she did not want to ignite the flames of war again.
"Alright, I'll look for you at the company tonight."
Murong Shaoyang did not understand, but since Mu Jinxi had said it, and he still had things to do here, she agreed.
After putting down the phone, Mu Jinxi's mood became heavy, she needed to organize her thoughts, how could she let Murong Shaoyang speak the truth without harming her relationship. Mu Jinxi looked at her son's sleeping face and thought: No matter what, I can't let Mu Beibei get hurt in the slightest.
