After a few words, the father and son seemed to start arguing again, and Mu Lingyun noticed that Xiaomei looked a little depressed.

He didn't want to argue with the old man anymore and kept nodding.

"Then I'll come back this afternoon, okay?"

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be relentless, and Mu Lingyun felt helpless.

"Okay, okay, I'll try to get back for lunch."

After hanging up the phone, Wen Xiaomei said softly: "Is your family worried about you? Then you should go back first. They must be waiting anxiously."

She thought Mu Lingyun had returned and gone home.

Unexpectedly, I didn't even go home, but kept accompanying her to walk around the pedestrian street and eat at roadside stalls.

I have to go out with her today.

She is a very sensible woman, this definitely won't work.

After sorting out her mood, Wen Xiaomei took the initiative to speak: "Brother Mu, you should go back first. Don't let your family worry. I want to walk alone."

The car has already reached the viaduct and will soon reach the Qiuyun Lake Scenic Area.

Through the car window, you can see several ferries on Qiuyun Lake in the distance, floating in the middle of the lake.

I took a ride on it last time. The feeling of the sea and sky being one and the blue water stretching to the horizon made me feel very relaxed.

I don’t know what’s wrong with this old man. Can’t he wait until night?

Why are you in such a hurry to call him back?

"Xiao Mei, I'll walk with you for a while. We'll be there soon. I'll go back at noon. There's nothing going on at home. They probably think I just came back from abroad and they missed me after not seeing each other for so long."

His light-hearted words did not make Wen Xiaomei feel at ease at all.

This feeling of oppression from a wealthy family finally made her understand why Shen Mengxue had been struggling for so long.

It's not being pretentious, it's a natural sense of humility.

It was like suddenly facing a high-ranking official, feeling helpless and without any sense of security.

Mu Lingyun stretched out his hand, held her, and gave her warm strength.

"Why don't you come back with me? I was planning to discuss this with you this afternoon. Let's go home and have dinner together in the evening."

The car went down the overpass and parked by the side of the road.

Mu Lingyun turned his gentle eyes to look at her and said carefully:

"Are you worried? My parents are easy to get along with. Don't be fooled by the old man's serious appearance. He actually loves me very much in his heart."

He smiled and said, "You see, if they were really that serious, I wouldn't be able to work outside alone. They would have controlled my sleep."

He tried to relax the atmosphere.

I picked a piece of music with a cheerful melody, [Starlight] by STR.

Wen Xiaomei lowered her head, raised her eyes after a few seconds, and said firmly: "Put me down in front, go back quickly."

Wen Xiaomei was obviously not mentally prepared to be taken back with him.

Mu Lingyun wanted to say something else, but when he met Wen Xiaomei's firm and resolute gaze, he agreed.

He would never force Xiaomei to do anything she didn't want to do.

He repeatedly reminded her that he would come and accompany her in the afternoon before driving away.

Wen Xiaomei walked alone along the green lakeside. The morning breeze, carrying the moist scent of the lake water, made people feel relaxed and happy.

Such a gentle breeze could not blow away the sadness between her thin brows.

Walking and stopping, sitting on the observation deck by the lake, every little detail of my acquaintance with Mu Lingyun kept emerging in my mind.

He came into her life like a warrior and saved her from the vortex of divorce.

She was grateful to have him in her life.

It's a pity that she was still not brave enough and didn't have the courage to accompany him.

The old house of the Mu family is also a villa estate of more than 3,000 square meters. As soon as Mu Lingyun's car appeared, his sister Mu Wushuang flashed out.

"Sister? Why did you come out alone? Where are they?"

Mu Lingyun knew that the last time he went to Los Angeles, his grandfather and grandpa did not agree.

You must be very angry now.

"You said that grandpa asked dad to call you, but you showed up just now. Come in with me and be nicer later."

Mu Wushuang pulled his brother inside.

The hesitant expression caught Mu Lingyun's eyes.

"Sister, are you hiding something else from me?"

Mu Wushuang stopped and looked back at him, "Little brother, listen to me and go in later. No matter what grandpa says, you can't make him angry, understand?"

"Ok?"

Mu Lingyun keenly noticed that things seemed very complicated.

It's not just that I want to see him and make sure he is safe.

"Sister, you must know, tell me quickly!"

Crossing the courtyard, Mr. Mu was standing at the door waiting for him, with a beautiful woman in Givenchy haute couture dress beside him, supporting him obediently.

My parents are there too.

Mu Lingyun frowned slightly, no wonder.

"You still know how to come back?"

The Mu family has a very good family tradition and they pay great attention to family affection and filial piety in the education of the younger generation.

"Grandpa, you are not feeling well, please come in quickly!"

Last time I ran out to find him and made him worry for a long time.

"I know my own body. I don't need you to teach me what to do."

His eyes fell on the younger generation beside him, and he became kind and gentle, "Xiaoyan, help me into the house."

Mu Lingyun looked at his mother and asked what was going on.

It can be seen that it is probably another blind date.

My sister finally said, "Miss Jiang is from Beijing. She is the granddaughter of Grandpa's good friend. Grandpa sent your photo to Miss Jiang a few days ago. I thought it was a joke, but Miss Jiang actually came to Haicheng a few days ago. Grandpa liked her very much when he saw her."

Director Mu took over the conversation: "You are already an adult, and you stay in Dongyu Group all day. Take this opportunity to come back and take over the Mu Group and get married at the same time."

"No, you called me back in a hurry, is that why?"

Madam Mu felt sorry for her son and couldn't bear it. "Old Mu, our son is grown up now. We should stop interfering in his affairs..."

Director Mu glanced sideways in the direction of the living room.

"You know Dad's health. I can't make the decision on this matter."

Mu Lingyun followed behind with his head down.

"Yun'er, come here quickly. Grandpa will introduce you to this. This is my old comrade's granddaughter, Jiang Yan. You young people should get to know her better."

The implication is very clear.

"Grandpa, shouldn't I handle my own affairs?"

Mr. Mu looked slightly angry, "Can you handle it? A single guy who has been single for thirty-one years?"

Jiang Yan, who was sitting nearby, almost laughed out loud. Grandpa's words were so interesting.

Considering the presence of guests, Mr. Mu controlled his emotions.

This eldest grandson has never given him peace of mind.

Although he looks gentle on the outside, he has been stubborn since childhood.

He himself didn't know that all the men in the Mu family were cut from the same cloth, and their stubbornness was also inherited from their genes.

On the other side, Wen Xiaomei sat for a while and prepared to get up and go back.

A beautiful woman with elegant temperament, intellectuality and gentleness walked towards me.

She was dressed luxuriously, and exuded the aura of a wealthy lady.

There were two bodyguards in black following behind him.

"Is it Miss Wen?"

Wen Xiaomei was puzzled. She didn't seem to know such an elegant and noble rich lady.

"I am. Are you looking for me?"

"Well, I have something personal I want to talk to you about. Do you want to have lunch sometime? Don't worry, I'm not a bad person."

Regardless of whether she agreed or not, Mrs. Fu motioned for her to get in the car.
