The husband I got is actually the heir to a wealthy family

Mu Ningxi turned her head and looked at Huo Beichen gratefully: "Huo Beichen, even though you don't like me to say thank you in front of you, at this time, I still want to say 'thank you' to you."

"Thank you for coming to the police station to take me away. Thank you for standing firmly behind me and protecting me from the storm."

Mu Ningxi has never been a pretentious person, but facing Huo Beichen's help again and again, she suddenly became pretentious. If she didn't say what was in her heart, Mu Ningxi felt that she would not be able to sleep tonight.

"Silly girl, you are my wife. If I don't protect you, who will? I should treat you well. Don't feel any burden."

Reaching out and holding Mu Ningxi in his arms, Huo Beichen said affectionately.

Nestled in Huo Beichen's arms, Mu Ningxi said softly: "You know, when I called you before, I was so afraid that you wouldn't come."

If there was no other way, Mu Ningxi really didn't want to make that call to Huo Beichen before.

Ever since they got their marriage certificate, Huo Beichen has been helping her clean up the mess from time to time. Mu Ningxi is worried that Huo Beichen will think that she is an unlucky person because of this.

Don’t all these big guys believe in Feng Shui and fate? If Huo Beichen really thinks so, Mu Ningxi can understand it.

Back then, in order to deal with his mother, Liu Yunzhi complained to Mu Wanzhen that his mother was born at a bad time and would bring disaster to the Mu family.

Mu Wanzhen believed Liu Yunzhi's words and began to dislike her mother, which led to what happened later.

Thinking of her parents, Mu Ningxi's mood became even worse.

Huo Beichen, who was standing by, did not feel the change in Mu Ningxi's mood. After listening to Mu Ningxi's words, Huo Beichen asked unhappily, "Why, in your mind, am I so untrustworthy?"

"Of course not. I'm just worried that you think if I go to the police station, it will bring shame to you and you might stop caring about me." Mu Ningxi suppressed his emotions and began to explain.

"Idiot, you're not the one who did anything wrong, and you didn't want to go to the police station. Why should I blame you?" After hearing Mu Ningxi's reasons, a faint smile returned to Huo Beichen's face.

After a pause, Huo Beichen continued, "Besides, even if you deliberately provoked those people this time, I wouldn't say anything and would still go to the police station to take you out."

"Those scumbags really need to be taught a lesson."

When saying the last sentence, Huo Beichen emphasized his tone.

"Yes, we should teach them a lesson. This is not the first time they have used such tactics." Recalling how Mu Yuande and Liu Yunzhi had framed their parents and sent them to jail, Mu Ningxi agreed in a deep voice.

That time, if grandpa hadn’t stepped in, I don’t know how long mom and dad would have been locked up.

Unexpectedly, in the end, Mom and Dad couldn't escape the tragic fate.

Thinking of the unjust death of his parents, Mu Ningxi sighed softly in his heart.

"Ning Xi, if you have any troubles, you can tell me. I believe that with my ability, I can definitely help you resolve them."

At this time, Huo Beichen finally noticed the change in Mu Ningxi's mood. Remembering what Zhao Yu had said before, Huo Beichen tentatively spoke to Mu Ningxi.

If Mu Ningxi didn't want to talk about her parents, Huo Beichen didn't intend to ask.

After listening to Huo Beichen's words, Mu Ningxi nodded thoughtfully and responded: "Okay, if I really encounter troubles, I won't be polite with you."

Huo Beichen, can I really trust you unconditionally?

Mu Ningxi thought to herself.

Ning Xi, it seems that you are still unwilling to open your heart to me. Am I really that untrustworthy in your heart?

Hearing Mu Ningxi say that, Huo Beichen nodded slightly and thought to himself.

Well, we haven't been together for long, so it's understandable that she doesn't trust me completely. There is still a long way to go, and I believe that one day, she will trust me completely.

Huo Beichen comforted himself in his heart.

While the two were talking, the car had already entered the Liyuan.

"Master, Madam, you are finally back." As soon as she saw Huo Beichen and the others get off the car, Aunt Qin, who had been waiting at the gate, immediately went to greet them with a worried look on her face.

Aunt Qin said as she put the coat in her hand on Mu Ningxi: "Madam, the temperature is low in Liyuan at night, don't catch a cold."

At 9 o'clock in the evening, a cold wind blew, and Mu Ningxi, who had just got off the car, did feel a chill.

"Thank you, Aunt Qin." Mu Ningxi said to Aunt Qin with a smile as she pulled her clothes closer to her body.

The three of them walked into the house together.

As soon as he entered the hall, Huo Beichen hurried upstairs.

Staring at Huo Beichen's back, Mu Ningxi was a little puzzled. What could have happened that could make Huo Beichen, who was usually calm, become so impatient?

Before Mu Ningxi could think about it, Aunt Qin had already ordered the servant to bring a bowl of ginger soup: "Madam, this is what the young master asked me to prepare."

I didn't expect Huo Beichen to be so considerate. But, how come I didn't know when he asked Aunt Qin to make ginger soup?

Mu Ningxi was thinking while drinking ginger soup.

"Madam, the young master said that you haven't had dinner yet. Do you want to eat now or wait a little longer?" Aunt Qin continued to ask after Mu Ningxi finished drinking the ginger soup.

"Aunt Qin, tell the kitchen to prepare now. I'll go upstairs to call Huo Beichen. He probably hasn't had dinner yet." Based on the time she called Huo Beichen, Mu Ningxi estimated that Huo Beichen probably hadn't had dinner either.

Aunt Qin nodded and turned to walk towards the kitchen.

Walking into their bedroom, Mu Ningxi heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom, and suddenly realized why Huo Beichen had hurried upstairs just now.

I thought he had something important to do, but it turned out he was going upstairs to take a shower.

Mu Ningxi realized belatedly that Huo Beichen might have been attacked by those rotten eggs in order to protect her. Even if not, Huo Beichen's clothes should have been stained with the stench.

How could I be so careless, only caring about myself and not considering his feelings at all?

Thinking of Huo Beichen's mild mysophobia, Mu Ningxi stood outside the bathroom and blamed herself.

She was just hesitating whether she should ask Huo Beichen to come downstairs for dinner when the bathroom door suddenly opened and Huo Beichen, wrapped only in a bath towel, walked out.

After glancing at Huo Beichen's muscular chest muscles, Mu Ningxi lowered her head shyly.

"Am I a monster? Are you so afraid of seeing me?" Looking at Mu Ningxi's expression, Huo Beichen said half-jokingly.

Mu Ningxi lowered her head and when she heard Huo Beichen say this, she quickly shook her head and denied it: "Of course not, it's just..."

How embarrassing! Am I being seduced by her beauty and worried that I might make a mistake if I continue watching?

Thinking of Huo Beichen's nearly perfect figure in her mind, Mu Ningxi's face suddenly turned red.

"I'm your husband, you can look if you want, there's nothing to be embarrassed about." Mu Ningxi's blushing made Huo Beichen more certain of his previous thoughts, and he said it bluntly.

Mu Ningxi's face turned even redder when she heard Huo Beichen speak out her thoughts.

Mu Ningxi didn't even dare to raise her head.

"Just now in the car, didn't you say you wanted to thank me? Now, take some practical action." Mu Ningxi's feminine look in front of him made Huo Beichen in a good mood, and he joked.

Hearing this, Mu Ningxi suddenly raised her head, but before she could ask what Huo Beichen meant by his words, her lips were blocked by Huo Beichen.
