C75

Lin Muhan finished everything, and Mi Xue had also stayed at the old man's place for a long time.

"Snow, go back." The old man said softly.

Michelle nodded and stood up, forcing herself to smile. "Grandpa, rest well. I'll come see you later."

"Mm. Alright." The old man's eyes shone with guilt.

Mi Xue's mood was also somewhat heavy. Walking out of the room, she looked down to see that it had already scattered downstairs, but she could still faintly hear Xu Meiyu's cries. She felt even more miserable.

When she found out that she had been framed and Gu Licheng was unclear, she had thought that there would be someone who would do it on purpose, but she had guessed that the person was Meng Yuyan.

But he never thought that this person would actually be Xu Meiyu, who lived under the same roof as him.

Just like what Lin Muhan had said before, the Lin Family was a large vat of dye, and many dark things were buried underground. However, when she came into contact with them, she found it hard to believe. Was it really that difficult for a family to live in harmony?

Right now, other than Lin Muhan, she didn't dare believe anything else.

But what did Lin Muhan have that was worthy of her trust? Mi Xue stood at the bedside of the corridor, just in time to see Xu Meiyu desperately clutching at the door and shouting. She suddenly felt that she would have to face this kind of situation in the future.

Lin Muhan came up from downstairs and immediately saw Mi Xue standing there looking lonely. He turned his head to look, and his expression was extremely unnatural.

He walked up to her lightly and pulled her into his arms, asking her in a soft voice, "What's wrong?"

"Don't look, don't listen."

Mi Xue raised her head to look at Lin Muhan. Her features were strong and strong, and there was a faint imposing manner and pressure between her brows. Her tall figure carried an innate noble aura, and she could not help but turn around to look at Xu Meiyu.

Was her fate the same in the future?

His heart clenched and a chill spread throughout his body, as if every cell in his body felt cold.

"I won't let you go." Lin Muhan saw through his thoughts, and lightly comforted him. His tone of voice was soft, and it lacked a trace of coolness.

However, these words didn't sound like comfort to Michelle. It sounded more like a threat.

Her body stiffened as she slowed down. It was only after a moment of silence did she realize what he meant. She slightly nodded and the two of them headed towards the room.

Mi Xue did not ask Lin Muhan how she handled the matter. As a junior, she could not interfere in the matters of the Lin Family. Lin Muhan did not mention it either, the two of them sat in the room, Mi Xue quietly stared at her, her eyes no longer showing the light of the past.

Lin Muhan sat in front of his computer, planning to take care of the documents, but his gaze would occasionally turn to Mi Xue.

Realizing that something was wrong, Lin Muhan no longer had the mood to continue working. He walked to her side and extended his hand to grab hers.

Mi Xue was still immersed in her thoughts initially but when she felt the warmth from her palm, she naturally withdrew it. It was only when Lin Muhan gently held her palm that she realized what had happened.

His face unconsciously turned red.

Such intimacy, they really were few and far between. Lin Muhan also noticed this and frowned slightly. It seemed that he had to do this frequently in the future to get used to it.

"Scared?" Lin Muhan asked softly, his eyes showing helplessness.

Michelle shook her head and smiled faintly. "I knew you would take care of it, so I wasn't scared."

"Since there aren't any, let's take a look at this." Lin Muhan pulled her to the front of the computer and opened a file. Mi Xue roughly took a look and upon seeing the last part of the document, a look of disbelief flashed past her eyes.

"Is this the reason for your cooperation with the Meng?" Michelle asked in surprise.

"Yes!" Lin Muhan nodded his head, "I am a merchant, and am conducting business. You can rest assured now."

"..."

Michelle didn't know how to reply, but she felt a faint sense of joy. He was trying to explain things to her.

But she quickly calmed down again. Even so, the benefits she gave the Meng were still numerous, and Meng Yuyan must have contributed a lot to the process. Moreover, he was a merchant, so marrying her should be the most disadvantageous for him.

In an instant, she felt a sense of loss. According to this, she had never stepped into his heart before.

The two stayed in the room the whole time, and the food was also sent to be settled by the servants in the room. It wasn't until the morning of the next day that Rice Snow finished changing her clothes and followed Lin Muhan out of the room.

His gaze swept across her, and Michelle checked his body. "Is there a problem?"

"You should buy new clothes." Lin Muhan said lightly.

Mi Xue glanced at her waist. It was indeed a little tight. She could not help but blush. Embarrassed, she mumbled, "I have indeed gotten fatter recently."

"Mm, that's good, even more beautiful." Lin Muhan couldn't help but praise him again.

She didn't expect him to say this, and Mi Xue's face became even redder. Lin Muhan looked at his shy little wife and became even more joyous. He couldn't help but wrap his arm around her waist and walk out the door with her.

Just as the door opened and the car was about to leave, a figure flashed out and blocked their path.

Lin Muhan's eyes darkened, looking at the man in front of him, he felt like spitting fire.

"Lin Muhan, you can't kick me out! You have no rights, I want to find the old man!" Xu Meiyu reached out her hand to block the door, not letting the carriage pass.

Michelle sized up the person in front of her. In just a night's time, she seemed to have aged quite a few years.

His skin had no luster, his hair was a little messy, the green in his eyes was even darker, his clothes were still the same as yesterday, haggard to the point that it didn't resemble the arrogant and despotic Xu Meiyu in the past.

"Pull her away!" Lin Muhan's face darkened, the chill spreading.

The bodyguard immediately tried to pull Xu Meiyu away, and it was another ordeal.

"Call the police if you make any more noise!" Lin Muhan rolled down the car window and roared at the bodyguard to vent his anger.

"Call the police, report it, Lin Muhan, if you dare make a move on the Xu Family, I will definitely fight you to the death with Grandma Wang!" Xu Meiyu hooted loudly, completely not putting Lin Muhan's words in his heart.

Mi Xue was slightly taken aback. From this sentence, it could be seen that Lin Muhan had already taken action against the Xu family.

He was still calm. Mi Xue looked at Xu Meiyu outside the window and coincidentally saw Xu Meiyu's sinister gaze looking at her. Mi Xue's heart sank.

"Michelle, just you wait!" Xu Meiyu pointed fiercely at Mi Xue, her eyes fixated on her like hooks.

She felt a chill down her spine. Xu Meiyu's gaze was too scary, as if she wanted to dig out a piece of her flesh.

A trace of fear flashed in Michelle's eyes, and she quickly turned around.

Seeing her panicked appearance, Lin Muhan frowned slightly as he placed his hands on top of hers, "Don't be afraid."

"Yes." Michelle nodded guiltily.

"She can't raise any waves." Seeing that there were beads of sweat on her nose, Lin Muhan couldn't help but reach out to scratch her nose, "Don't leave my side for this period of time."

"Alright!" Michelle showed her unexpected obedience.

The corner of Lin Muhan's mouth raised slightly. He was in a good mood and quickly retracted his hand and started the car.

As the car sped through the streets of the city, Michelle was moved by the scene outside the window. Her mind drifted away.

Since this matter had been publicized to such a large extent, the company definitely knew about it. Facing them was truly a bit awkward.

"Nervous?" Lin Muhan asked softly as he looked at her.

Michelle shook her head. "I just feel a bit uncomfortable."

"Don't worry, you are the Madam President, no one would dare to say anything in front of you." Lin Muhan smiled faintly.

"Mhmm." Mi Xue casually agreed and took a deep breath. Was this how he made her learn how to use the Madam President's privilege?

Turning her head, seeing the side of Lin Muhan's face when he was driving seriously, the sunlight shining onto his face, reflecting a faint light, she was suddenly dumbstruck.

When he came back to his senses, the car had already stopped.

Lin Muhan got off the car, walked to the front passenger seat, and quickly opened the car door. Just as Michelle was about to reach out to untie her seat belt, he leaned over, and with a "bada" sound, his seat belt was released.

The two of them were very close, to the point that Michelle did not dare to breathe for fear of messing up his hair.

Her nose was filled with the faint fragrance of his body shower gel. It was just like the smell on her body, causing her to be absent-minded for a moment.

This was … Love?

"Let's go." Lin Muhan reminded his in a low voice.

Michelle came back to her senses and blushed. "I can do it myself."

Looking at the little lady in front of him, Lin Muhan smiled, "Women should learn how to use privileges."

A hint?

Mi Xue came out of the car, saw Lin Muhan's hand, and tried to hold onto it.

The faint chill he exuded made Mi Xue want to get closer to him for some reason. She held his hand, feeling more at ease.

The two of them held hands, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

At this time, it was the peak of working time, and everyone was astonished at the scene before them. Some of them even opened their mouths wide, while some who were more low-key were gathered together and were discussing quietly, it was none other than the triangular relationship between Mi Xue, Gu Licheng and the others.

"Don't be afraid." Lin Muhan squeezed Mi Xue's hand tightly.

Michelle did not respond. She was not afraid. After all, she was a legal wife and not a mistress.

Thinking of Xiao San, she couldn't help but think of Meng Yuyan, and the depths of her heart was filled with happiness. Mi Xue thought, if Meng Yuyan saw this scene, she would definitely be so angry that her lungs would explode. When she thought about how angry she looked, she felt better for no reason.

"Michelle!"

After a short while, they were interrupted by a sudden voice before they could walk into the company's entrance.

Mi Xue's body froze, she could tell that Gu Licheng had come looking for her without even turning her head around.

In that moment, she felt that all kinds of show of love was unnecessary, from the looks of the people around, she could tell that they definitely thought Gu Licheng had come looking for them.

Holding Mi Xue's hand, Lin Muhan regained his senses. He glanced at Gu Licheng, his gaze calm. "Mr. Gu, what business do you have with my wife so early in the morning?"

Her tone was light, and one could not tell her emotions, but it gave off a silent pressure.

Mi Xue also saw Gu Licheng. He looked even more haggard than before, his eyes shining brightly when he saw her.
