My great aunt Mu Wanzhen never got married in her life because of her personality.

Ever since they were young, the aunt has liked Mu Xiner very much, but has been indifferent to Mu Ningxi, and one could even say that she dislikes her a little.

When she was a child, Mu Xiner didn’t understand what was going on. She thought it was because she was sweet-mouthed that she could please her aunt.

With this mentality, Mu Xiner became even sweeter when facing her aunt, and only said things that the other party liked to hear.

By doing this, my aunt liked her even more and hated Mu Ningxi more and more. Sometimes, she would even hit Mu Ningxi behind my grandfather's back.

Gradually, Mu Ningxi began to be afraid to approach her aunt.

The image of her aunt left a deep mark in Mu Ningxi's young mind, and she became more and more afraid of her aunt.

As she grew older, Mu Xiner realized that a big part of the reason why her aunt didn't like Mu Ningxi was because of her parents.

What Mu Ningxi's parents did in the past brought shame to the Mu family. As a very traditional person, the aunt was unable to deal with those two people and could only transfer her hatred to Mu Ningxi.

Back then, with grandpa protecting her, my aunt didn't dare to do anything blatantly to Mu Ningxi. Now that grandpa is gone, she will definitely vent all her hatred on Mu Ningxi.

Besides, as the most senior person in the Mu family, my aunt is in charge of the Mu family ancestral hall. Her words can decide whether my grandfather's spirit tablet stays or goes away.

Given Mu Ningxi's filial piety towards his grandfather, he would definitely not want to see his grandfather's spirit tablet taken away from the ancestral hall. Doing so would be tantamount to not recognizing his grandfather's identity as a member of the Mu family.

With grandpa's spirit tablet in hand, I don't believe that Mu Ningxi will definitely obey my aunt's words.

Mu Xiner was thinking excitedly and didn't even hear what Liu Yunzhi asked her.

"Xiner, what are you thinking about?" Seeing that Mu Xiner ignored her, Liu Yunzhi asked.

Mu Xiner came back to her senses and smiled faintly, "I was thinking about my aunt. I haven't seen her for a long time. I really miss her."

"I miss her too." Liu Yunzhi echoed.

The mother and daughter smiled at each other. From each other's eyes, they could see the other's true intention towards Mu Wanzhen.

Mu Yuande and Liu Yunzhi continued to stay in the ward for a while, chatting with Mu Xiner and Meng Tianbo for a while before leaving.

"Xin'er, stay one more day and we will be discharged from the hospital. Then, your uncle and aunt will be with you all the time." Mu Xin'er became very happy when she saw Mu Yuande and others coming. Meng Tianbo thought that Mu Xin'er missed her parents and comforted her.

Mu Xiner nodded and did not deny Meng Tianbo's words, making him mistakenly believe that she was happy because of her parents' visit.

In Meng Tianbo's heart, Mu Xiner is simple and kind. She would not be so stupid as to expose her other side to Meng Tianbo.

Besides, how to deal with Mu Ningxi will have to wait until my aunt comes back and make a long-term plan. The most important thing now is to suppress the scandal on the Internet.

Thinking of the video on the Internet, the smile on Mu Xiner's face disappeared, replaced by deep hatred.

Mu Ningxi, just wait, it won't be long before you become the one making a fool of yourself.

Feeling the change in Mu Xiner's mood, Meng Tianbo became confused. No wonder people say "women's hearts are as deep as the sea". She was fine just now, how could she change suddenly?

Seeing that Mu Xiner's mood change was not caused by him, Meng Tianbo did not continue to ask. The current situation was already bad enough, and Meng Tianbo did not want to have any more estrangement with Mu Xiner because of other things.

Besides, he had to focus on how to solve the current predicament and didn't want to worry about some inexplicable things.

At Mu Ningxi's house, after eating the lunch brought by A Kun, Huo Beichen sat on the sofa and looked at his phone.

Seeing that Huo Beichen was not seriously injured, Mu Ningxi discussed with him, then walked into the study and continued the unfinished work at hand.

Last night, she was supposed to work overtime on a project, but Cheng Jingjing dragged her out to eat, which delayed her time.

Mu Ningxi planned to catch up on his progress during the weekend.

Before he knew it, two hours had passed. Mu Ningxi stood up and stretched his body, planning to rest for a few minutes before continuing.

At this moment, someone knocked on the study door from outside, and then Huo Beichen's low voice came into Mu Ningxi's ears: "Your phone call."

Phone call. My cell phone is in the study and there is no landline at home. Where did the call come from?

With a doubtful attitude, Mu Ningxi opened the study door.

"Here." The door opened and Huo Beichen handed his cell phone to Mu Ningxi.

Mu Ningxi stared at Huo Beichen and took his phone.

"Aunt Mu, neither you nor my uncle want me." Zheng Zihao's crying voice was heard on the other side of the phone.

Next to him, Huo Beichen whispered in Mu Ningxi's ear, "He called me and said he wanted to talk to you. I had no choice but to let you answer the phone."

Seeing Huo Beichen speaking calmly, Mu Ningxi took a deep breath.

Huo Beichen, did you do this on purpose?

In this case, how can I explain to Zihao why we are together?

Mu Ningxi knew that due to the early death of his parents, Zheng Zihao was much more mature than his peers. Moreover, the most crucial point was that the child was very sensitive and his fragile little heart would be hurt if he was not careful.

"Zihao, I have accepted a new assignment recently. The company leader has urgent requirements. I have no choice but to work overtime and try to complete the work as soon as possible. That way, I will have more time to accompany Zihao."

Mu Ningxi hesitated for a moment, and then explained the general situation to Zheng Zihao in words that Zheng Zihao could understand.

"Aunt Mu, since you are so busy, why are you still with my uncle?" Zheng Zihao thought for a few seconds and asked the question that Mu Ningxi didn't want to answer.

I knew long ago that this child was not easy to fool.

Mu Ningxi pressed the hands-free button while thinking.

Let them solve their own family affairs.

Mu Ningxi wanted Huo Beichen to deal with Zheng Zihao.

"You are willing to accompany your uncle but not me, Aunt Mu, don't you love Zihao anymore?" Zheng Zihao said crying.

Mu Ningxi raised her eyes to glance at Huo Beichen and hooked her chin towards the phone, as if telling Huo Beichen, look, how difficult your nephew is.

Seeing Huo Beichen looking at her with amusement, Mu Ningxi understood that this man was determined to watch the fight from the sidelines and was not prepared to help.

With a sigh, Mu Ningxi denied it, "Zihao, how could Auntie not love you? You are the one Auntie loves the most. Your uncle is one of my clients. We are together to discuss business."

"Talking about business, why haven't I heard you say that before?" Zheng Zihao was skeptical about Mu Ningxi's words.

Just as Mu Ningxi was about to open her mouth to cover up her lie, she heard Zheng Zihao speak again: "Forget it, I don't understand your work matters, and you definitely won't tell me."

"However, Aunt Mu, my uncle is very scary when he gets angry. You should avoid contact with him except for work matters, otherwise he will hurt you when he loses his temper."

Zheng Zihao's words made Mu Ningxi couldn't help laughing.

Looking at Huo Beichen's livid face, Mu Ningxi smiled even more happily.

Huo Beichen, it must be unpleasant to be spoken to like this by your own nephew, right?

"Aunt Mu, you must not disbelieve what I say. Even my aunt says that he is scary. Whoever he becomes a boyfriend will be unlucky." Hearing Mu Ningxi's laughter, Zheng Zihao thought that she didn't believe what he said, and he became anxious. In his anxiety, he even betrayed Cheng Jingjing.

Hearing this, Huo Beichen's expression became even uglier.

They are really two ungrateful wolves who are impossible to tame. They are usually spoiled with good food and drink, but at the critical moment, they dare to sabotage him.

After Cheng Jingjing recovered, the two of them cleaned up together.

"I don't believe your aunt dares to say that about your uncle." Mu Ningxi stopped laughing and asked seriously.

It's not easy to see Huo Beichen being humiliated. How can I justify all my hard work last night if I don't dig up some more explosive information?

Thinking of how Huo Beichen had made things difficult for her last night, Mu Ningxi wanted to see Huo Beichen angry. The angrier he was, the happier she would be.

"Really? My aunt told me secretly and told me not to tell anyone else. Aunt Mu, I'm only telling you. You must not let my uncle know."

Zheng Zihao's tone was full of seriousness.

Hearing this, Huo Beichen wanted to speak, but Mu Ningxi covered his mouth with her hand.

"Of course, we have such a good relationship, how could I betray you." Mu Ningxi promised solemnly, in return getting a cold look from Huo Beichen.

"I definitely believe that Aunt Mu won't betray me. When Aunt Mu comes back, I will ask her to introduce you to a boyfriend. That way, when you talk to Uncle about business, there will be someone to accompany you. If Uncle loses his temper with you, your boyfriend can help you teach him a lesson."

Zheng Zihao spoke more seriously.

With his mouth covered, Huo Beichen was so angry that he had difficulty breathing.

"Zihao, didn't you want me to be your aunt before? Why did you change your mind so quickly and even want to introduce me to a boyfriend?"

Recalling what Zheng Zihao had said before, Mu Ningxi was very curious why his attitude had changed so much.

"I said that before because I wanted Aunt Mu to live in the villa so that you could accompany me every day. But I saw that you were very reluctant, so I called my aunt for advice. My aunt said that it might be because my uncle has a bad temper that you don't want to be my aunt."

"Aunt Mu, how about I be your boyfriend? That way, you can move to the villa, okay?" As he was talking, Zheng Zihao suddenly thought of an idea that he thought was good, and he told it to seek Mu Ningxi's opinion.

Mu Ningxi couldn't hold back any longer and laughed out loud once again.

"Zihao, Auntie is much older than you, we can't be boyfriend and girlfriend. Just stay home and wait for Auntie. When I'm done with my work these few days, I'll go play with you."

Seeing that the person around her was about to get angry if she continued the conversation, Mu Ningxi comforted Zheng Zihao for a few words and then quickly hung up the phone.

Mu Ningxi moved her hand away from Huo Beichen's mouth and handed the phone to him.

"How old are you? Why are you still angry with a child?" Mu Ningxi joked as she looked at someone who was very unhappy.

"Even though he knows how to be your boyfriend, he's still a child?" Huo Beichen asked back with a stern face.

Mu Ningxi was speechless for a while.

"Zihao doesn't know about the relationship between us, and he is just talking nonsense. Why do you care so much?" I really don't understand how such a shrewd person could get angry over such a groundless thing.

"In order to prevent him from talking nonsense in the future, let's just tell him about our relationship." Huo Beichen raised his eyebrows and suggested.
