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

Chapter 57 This is a gift from my cousin

"This matter is not over yet. Let those two people protect her well and don't let her get into any mishap again." Ignoring A Kun's words, Huo Beichen gave the order.

A Kun nodded and left the study.

The next day was calm.

Mu Ningxi called Huo Beichen and asked him to withdraw his people, but was sternly rejected.

Although she was depressed, Mu Ningxi had to accept the reality and let the two people stay with her to protect her safety.

On Friday morning, Mu Ningxi had just arrived at the company when she received a call from Wang Luyao: "Ningxi, tomorrow is the weekend. Let's have dinner together tonight. I have something to tell you."

"Not tomorrow, I already have an appointment." Thinking of her date with Cheng Jingjing, Mu Ningxi refused outright.

"Dating the one from your family?" When Wang Luyao heard that Mu Ningxi had a date, the flame of gossip in her heart burned fiercely.

"You know our true relationship, so why would I date him?" Mu Ningxi quickly retorted.

Mu Ningxi's mind suddenly flashed with Huo Beichen's face. She shook her head to get rid of the image from her mind.

"The world is unpredictable, Ning Xi, don't be so confident." Wang Luyao joked on the phone.

"You have something to say? What is it?" Mu Ningxi was unwilling to continue discussing the relationship between herself and Huo Beichen, so she changed the subject.

Hearing her ask this, Wang Luyao's tone became serious: "I saw Zhiling and Mu Xiner shopping together yesterday. Judging from their situation, they have a good relationship."

"They work in the same company, so it's normal for them to have a good relationship." Mu Ningxi disagreed with Wang Luyao's words.

When they were in college, Mu Ningxi, Wang Luyao, Gong Zhiling and Zhou Ping lived in the same dormitory, and the four of them got along pretty well.

After graduation, Gong Zhiling entered the entertainment industry and gradually became estranged from Mu Ningxi and the others.

"I heard before that because of you, Mu Xin'er targeted Zhi Ling everywhere, and their relationship was once incompatible. How come they are so harmonious now? I feel like there must be something fishy going on."

Wang Luyao did not agree with Mu Ningxi's words.

"Luyao, do you have paranoid delusions? Even if Mu Xin'er wanted to deal with me, she wouldn't have to go to such lengths. Besides, Zhi Ling didn't have any leverage over me back then, so I have nothing to worry about."

Mu Ningxi realized what Wang Luyao was worried about and comforted her.

"That's what I said, but sometimes you can find a pretext to accuse someone of something. Anyway, I always feel that Mu Xin'er approaching Zhi Ling at this time is not that simple. You also know that Zhi Ling is no match for Mu Xin'er in terms of scheming. Otherwise, how could she be bullied so badly by Mu Xin'er before? Anyway, you have to be more careful about this matter and don't let others take advantage of her."

Wang Luyao still disagreed with Mu Ningxi's statement and began to refute it.

"Okay, okay, I know you are doing this for my own good. I will be careful and won't give anyone an opportunity to take advantage of me." Knowing that Wang Luyao was worried about her, Mu Ningxi quickly expressed her opinion.

Considering Wang Luyao's current condition, Mu Ningxi did not tell her about the attack that night.

Telling Wang Luyao would do nothing except add to her worries.

"Ning Xi, luckily you held back and didn't tell Zhi Ling and A Ping that you were Ai Sha. Otherwise, Mu Xin'er would have gotten your hidden identity from Zhi Ling by now."

Recalling Mu Ningxi's previous concealment from Gong Zhiling and Zhou Ping, Wang Luyao sighed sincerely.

Hearing Wang Luyao say this, Mu Ningxi sighed helplessly.

Back then, she had concealed that identity from herself and felt apologetic towards Gong Zhiling and Zhou Ping, thinking that they were so sincere to her, yet she had hidden something from them. Now it seems that what she did before was completely correct.

"Ning Xi, don't think too much. Maybe things are not what I think. I am just worrying about nothing."

Hearing Mu Ningxi's sigh, Wang Luyao realized that her behavior was a bit reckless. Telling Mu Ningxi all this without any real evidence only added to her troubles.

"Luyao, thank you." As friends for many years, how could Mu Ningxi not understand Wang Luyao's thoughts? She sincerely expressed her gratitude to her.

After hanging up the phone, Mu Ningxi calmed down for a moment and focused on his work.

What is coming will come, so why think so much?

Just after dinner when she got home in the evening, Cheng Jingjing came to Mu Ningxi, and with her came 9 pots of blooming yellow roses.

After directing the people to put the flower pots away, Cheng Jingjing told Mu Ningxi: "Ningxi, my cousin knows that you like yellow roses, so he asked me to send them over."

Yellow roses, why does Huo Beichen think I like yellow roses?

Mu Ningxi was about to speak, but when she saw the yellow roses in her vase, she held back her words.

It turned out to be the case.

She just happened to buy these yellow roses, but she didn't expect him to misunderstand her. Huo Beichen was really self-righteous.

"Ning Xi, you don't like it?" Not seeing the expected surprise expression on Mu Ningxi's face, Cheng Jingjing frowned and asked.

"No, I like it very much. Thank you, Mr. Huo." Mu Ningxi quickly shook her head and denied it.

No matter what, this is someone else's thoughtful gesture, how could she say she doesn't like it.

Hearing Mu Ningxi say this, Cheng Jingjing's frown relaxed.

It seems that Ning Xi, like her cousin, is a person who never shows her emotions. It's really worrying to see them acting so awkwardly.

On several occasions, Cheng Jingjing wanted to expose the relationship between Mu Ningxi and Huo Beichen, but she didn't dare to do so because she was afraid of being punished by Huo Beichen.

Although Cheng Jingjing usually acted fearless when facing Huo Beichen, she knew in her heart that she did not make Huo Beichen angry.

If she really annoys Huo Beichen, she will suffer the consequences.

"Ningxi, see you tomorrow." After chatting with Mu Ningxi for a few words, Cheng Jingjing said goodbye.

After Cheng Jingjing left, Mu Ningxi sent a WeChat message to Huo Beichen: "Mr. Huo, thank you for the yellow roses."

Jingjing is a very capable girl and she got it done so quickly.

Looking at Mu Ningxi's WeChat, Huo Beichen praised Cheng Jingjing's efficiency and replied, "It's just a bouquet of flowers, no big deal."
