After a flash marriage, the abstinent president dotes on his wife

After leaving the Yan family's gate, Mu Huaichenyi handed Lu Huaizhi and Yan Xun'an to the bodyguards guarding outside the door and sent them away from the Yan family safely.

He then quickly took Xing Nian into another car that had been prepared long ago. As the wheels rolled, the car slowly drove away from the Yan family's area.

The atmosphere in the car was a little heavy, but Xing Nian tried to break the silence.

She recalled the scene at Yan's house just now, and a playful smile appeared on her face. She said to Mu Huaichen: "Husband, you didn't see it. Yan Hao's face was twisted with anger just now. That expression was really funny." She tried to ease the tense atmosphere in the car with a relaxed tone.

However, when she turned to look at Mu Huaichen, she found that he had a stern face and a hint of displeasure between his brows.

Xing Nian's heart tightened, she knew she might have done something wrong again. She knew that Mu Huaichen was always worried about her safety and didn't like her to get involved in any danger.

Xing Nian swallowed his saliva, feeling a little guilty.

She knew that her behavior at Yan's house just now might have made Mu Huaichen worried, so she said carefully: "Husband, you came just in time today, thank you." Her voice was full of gratitude and dependence.

Mu Huaichen slowly parked the car to the side of the road, and the car fell into silence.

Xing Nian sat aside, looking a little uneasy. She thought Mu Huaichen would be angry because of her risky behavior and might even hit her.

So she nervously shrank her neck, closed her eyes, and prepared to face the possible punishment.

However, to her surprise, a warm big hand gently rested on her head, and Mu Huaichen's voice was filled with helplessness and pampering: "Do you think I want to hit you?"

Xing Nian opened her eyes carefully, and when she saw Mu Huaichen's gentle eyes, the tension in her heart immediately dissipated.

She looked at Mu Huaichen guiltily and said softly, "Sorry, husband, I'm in danger again."

Mu Huaichen sighed and said, "You are not wrong. You told me in advance that you were going to the Yan family. I know you don't like having others follow you, so why am I here?" His words were full of understanding and tolerance.

She looked up at Mu Huaichen, her eyes full of tenderness, and threw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly.

"Hubby, you're the best. Who would dare to bully me when you're protecting me?" There was a hint of coquettishness and dependence in Xing Nian's voice.

Mu Huaichen stared at Xing Nian with his deep eyes. Her well-behaved appearance stirred ripples in his heart, making him have some bad thoughts.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, forming a wicked smile.

Xing Nian noticed the change in the man's eyes, was startled, and immediately realized that something was wrong.

She quickly backed away, all the way to the car door, holding the door handle tightly with both hands, as if this could give her some sense of security.

"Honey, we're outside here, can you please control yourself a little?" There was a hint of nervousness in Xing Nian's voice. She was worried that Mu Huaichen would do something embarrassing to her in public.

When Mu Huaichen heard Xing Nian's words, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He gently held Xing Nian's hand and said softly, "Nian Nian, didn't you say before that you would never take risks again? Why are you so careless this time?"

Xing Nian pouted and whispered guiltily, "I... I have already greeted you before. Who knew that the Yan family was still in danger?" She knew that she was in the wrong, so there was a hint of coquettishness and flattery in her tone.

Xing Nian didn't dare to look directly into Mu Huaichen's captivating eyes, for she was afraid that she would fall under his gaze.

She tried to divert her gaze and looked out the window, trying to avoid Mu Huaichen's sight.

However, Mu Huaichen did not let her go.

He gently raised his hand, tapped Xing Nian's forehead, and said with a smile: "Niannian, what do you think about every day? You are so easily frightened."

Xing Nian was a little annoyed by Mu Huaichen's behavior. She simply crossed her arms and turned her head away and stopped looking at him.

She muttered, "Hmph, this stinky man is playing tricks on me again." Although there was a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, revealing a smile.

Mu Huaichen looked at Xing Nian's puffy little face and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch her cheek, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, don't be angry. Don't be so reckless in the future."

Xing Nian felt a little embarrassed by Mu Huaichen's behavior. She gently slapped his hand away and said angrily, "Who is angry? I'm not angry." Although she said this, her face was already flushed.

Mu Huaichen looked at Xing Nian's shy appearance and liked her even more.

He knew Xing Nian was shy outside, so he didn't tease her anymore. He gently held her hand and said softly, "Okay, it's getting late. Let's go home."

Xing Nian nodded. The car started slowly and sped away on the road.

The night was getting darker, but a warm atmosphere filled the carriage.

Shen family.

Shen Xiaoyue sat quietly in the empty living room. It was so quiet that the only sound she could hear was her own breathing. The empty villa seemed to have swallowed up all life; even the air seemed so heavy.

From a wealthy lady to a penniless person today, Shen Xiaoyue's state of mind has undergone a drastic change.

In the first few days, she couldn't accept this reality and cried hysterically, trying to vent her inner pain and despair. However, as time went by, she gradually realized that crying wouldn't change anything, so she began to face it all quietly.

During these few days, Shen Xiaoyue learned from the bodyguard everything her grandmother had done for her. She learned the truth about the bankruptcy of the Shen Group and the efforts her grandmother had made to save the Shen family's old house.

Grandma knew that once the Shen Group went bankrupt, her two sons and those greedy relatives would definitely harm Shen Xiaoyue. They would try every means to drive her out of the old house and divide up the last bit of family property.

In order to protect Shen Xiaoyue, grandma made arrangements in advance. She told the bodyguard that if such a day really came, Shen Xiaoyue could go to the Helan family in Country Y to seek asylum.

The deceased old lady of the Helan family was a sister to grandma, and the current head of the Helan family is Shen Xiaoyue’s uncle.

For grandma's sake, the Helan family will at least take Shen Xiaoyue in and give her a place to live.

However, Shen Xiaoyue refused her grandmother's arrangement. She was proud and could not accept this kind of life under someone else's roof.

For so many years, she has been a rich lady, enjoying endless wealth and respect from others.

Today, although her family has fallen into poverty, she still maintains her pride and self-esteem. She is unwilling to ask for help from others, and even more unwilling to live at the mercy of others.

A few days later, after learning that the Shen family still had an old house, the relatives of the Shen family broke into the house and wanted to drive Shen Xiaoyue out of the house.

There was a gleam of greed in their eyes, as if they had already seen the wealth that was about to be obtained.

Shen Xiaoyue stood in front of them, trying to use the aura of the eldest daughter of the Shen family to tell them to leave. But in their eyes, Shen Xiaoyue, who had lost the protection of Old Lady Shen, was just a helpless and incompetent daughter, not worthy of their attention at all.

They roughly pushed Shen Xiaoyue to the ground, and then began to plunder the property in the old house unscrupulously. Whether it was antiques, calligraphy and paintings, or gold, silver and jewelry, as long as they could take it away, they would not let go.

What's even more outrageous is that several relatives who were old enough to be Shen Xiaoyue's father actually had evil thoughts after seeing Shen Xiaoyue's beautiful face.

They surrounded Shen Xiaoyue, looked her up and down with obscene eyes, and said some unbearable words.

"Niece Xiaoyue, you are a rich lady and you are so beautiful. Even if you are down and out, your face is still worth a lot of money." One of them said with a grin.

Shen Xiaoyue felt sick when she heard these words. She struggled to stand up, but was pinned to the ground by these people.

She shouted angrily: "Get out! I am the eldest daughter of the Shen family. If you dare to do this to me, you must not want to live!"

However, her struggle and cry did not arouse the sympathy of the people around her. Those relatives just looked at her indifferently, as if they were watching an insignificant farce.

One of the men even reached out to grab Shen Xiaoyue, saying, "Bah! What eldest daughter of the Shen family? The Shen family is bankrupt. My dear niece, if you behave yourself, your uncle can find a good place for you. Otherwise, I will sell you, and you should be worth a lot of money."

Shen Xiaoyue struggled desperately, but her strength seemed so insignificant in front of these men.

She could only watch them taking advantage of her, her heart filled with despair and anger.
