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

"So what if I'm jealous? Shouldn't I be jealous seeing my wife staring at the photo of her ex in a daze?" Huo Beichen responded seriously to Mu Ningxi's joking question, and finally, he asked Mu Ningxi back.

Mu Ningxi didn't expect Huo Beichen to answer so frankly. She didn't know what to say. She just knew that she always lost when arguing with Huo Beichen.

Wait, Huo Beichen said in the first sentence that he was secretly sad, and in the second sentence that he was distraught. When have I ever behaved like this?

Mu Ningxi was about to defend herself, but Huo Beichen spoke first: "However, he is not worthy of me being jealous of someone like Meng Tianbo."

"It's good that you know it. Don't make random guesses in the future. Doing so will only lower your status." Mu Ningxi followed Huo Beichen's words and echoed.

"Besides, I wasn't feeling sad or distraught just now." Mu Ningxi finally defended herself.

"According to what you said, your bad mood is not because of Meng Tianbo?" Huo Beichen asked after hearing Mu Ningxi's words.

"Of course not. Am I sick to be angry at such a person?" Mu Ningxi strongly denied.

"How do you know I'm in a bad mood?" At this point, Mu Ningxi seemed to have thought of something and asked hurriedly.

Huo Beichen pulled Mu Ningxi into his arms and responded softly, "You only ask for sweets when you are in a bad mood. Besides, you only took a sip of the milk tea I bought for the hospital. If you are not in a bad mood, what else could it be?"

"You observe very carefully." Mu Ningxi did not deny what Huo Beichen said.

"I've said before that I'll take good care of you. I must understand your joys and sorrows." Huo Beichen replied firmly.

A man of such status would actually be so attentive to her. Mu Ningxi was deeply moved at this moment.

"Tell me, why are you in a bad mood?" Hearing that Mu Ningxi was not in a bad mood because of Meng Tianbo, Huo Beichen's mood instantly improved and he opened his mouth to ask.

"It's nothing. I just felt a little unhappy about meeting Mu Xiner in the hospital before." Mu Ningxi hesitated for a moment, but still did not tell her about her parents.

"Did she embarrass you?" Huo Beichen continued to ask.

Huo Beichen, who was good at observing people's words and expressions, had already figured out from Mu Ningxi's actions that the reason why she was in a bad mood was definitely not as simple as Mu Xiner. But seeing that Mu Ningxi was unwilling to tell the truth, Huo Beichen didn't dare to press her further.

"That's not the case. But you also know that every time Mu Xiner sees me, she will speak rudely to me. Facing her provocation, I feel very upset." Seeing Huo Beichen asking this, Mu Ningxi shifted the topic to Mu Xiner.

"You knew clearly that she just wanted to make you feel bad, so why did you fall for her trick? It's pointless to be angry at such a person." Huo Beichen expressed his opinion.

Mu Ningxi nodded gently and agreed, "I understand. I promise not to get angry at people like this again. It's really not worth it."

After a pause, Mu Ningxi asked Huo Beichen: "Why did you go home so early today?"

If Luyao came here before and Huo Beichen suddenly came back, she would definitely think that I was lying to her. Fortunately, I didn't force Luyao to come home.

As he asked, Mu Ningxi recalled his previous conversation with Wang Luyao and felt relieved in his heart.

"I know you're bored at home, so I wanted to come back early to accompany you. But from your tone, it seems that you don't want me to go home early?" Huo Beichen pinched Mu Ningxi's delicate nose and said a little unhappily.

"How is that possible? I'm just a little curious and asked casually." Hearing the dissatisfaction in Huo Beichen's words, Mu Ningxi hurriedly explained.

"I was just teasing you. I'm going to take a shower. We'll go downstairs to eat together later." After pinching Mu Ningxi's nose again, Huo Beichen let go of Mu Ningxi and said in a low voice.

After saying that, Huo Beichen turned and walked towards the bathroom.

"Huo Beichen, I have something to say to you." Looking at Huo Beichen's leaving back, Mu Ningxi shouted impulsively.

Huo Beichen turned around, stared at Mu Ningxi and asked, "What do you want to say?"

Being stared at like this, Mu Ningxi didn't know how to start talking.

Seeing her embarrassment, Huo Beichen turned around and walked in front of Mu Ningxi, saying softly: "Just say whatever you want to say. There is nothing that cannot be said between you and me."

"I, I just lied to you. Actually, I'm unhappy because of my parents' matter." Facing Huo Beichen's expectant eyes, Mu Ningxi plucked up the courage and said what she wanted to say.

Since I have decided to go on with him, there should be no deception between each other. As for what will happen in the future, no one can predict it. I hope everything will go as I wish.

Seeing that Mu Ningxi was finally willing to confide in him, Huo Beichen was very excited. He suppressed his emotions and asked softly, "Tell me slowly what happened back then."

Mu Ningxi nodded and began to narrate: "I have always suspected that the car accident my parents had was not an accident, but a man-made one. My father's right-hand man, Uncle Zhao, also holds this view."

"Uncle Zhao is the one who called me that day." At this point, Mu Ningxi explained Zhao Ming to Huo Beichen.

Huo Beichen nodded and motioned for Mu Ningxi to continue.

"When my parents died in a car accident, I was still young, so Uncle Zhao had to investigate the truth of the accident himself. Unfortunately, after so many years, Uncle Zhao has found nothing."

"After I graduated from college, Uncle Zhao contacted me and told me his suspicions. We jointly investigated the matter. Not long ago, we finally made a breakthrough. Uncle Zhao is now going to Country S to find witnesses of the car accident that year."

After listening to Mu Ningxi's story, Huo Beichen asked her: "What can I do about this matter?"

Mu Ningxi shook her head and said frankly: "I can still handle it now. I don't need you to take action for the time being. When I need you, I will naturally tell you."

Knowing that Mu Ningxi would never do anything without certainty, Huo Beichen nodded and did not force her.

"I feel like if we keep investigating, we'll probably end up with the Mu family. If that's the result, I don't know if I can accept it."

"Mu Yuande is my father's younger brother after all. I don't believe he would do such a cruel thing to his own elder brother and sister-in-law."

Mu Ningxi paused for a moment and expressed his inner guess.

"Human nature is the most vulnerable thing. No matter what the result is, you should let it go and find out the truth of that year. Don't let your parents die with regrets."

"Wife, I will always be your strongest supporter." Huo Beichen vowed as he held Mu Ningxi in his arms.
