The Duke's little ancestor slipped away again

"...You scared me to death..."

Seeing the familiar figure in front of him, Mu Mu rushed forward and hugged him tightly.

"I scared you. I wanted to give you a surprise."

Vaughn thought he had startled her by his sudden appearance, but it wasn't until he felt the little girl's body trembling slightly in his arms that he suddenly realized that he was wrong.

"Don't cry. I'm here. Tell me what happened?"

"...You and Asim can't get through on the phone. I thought something happened to you..."

Mu Mu looked up at Vaughn with tears in her eyes. The latter's heart tightened upon hearing this, and he couldn't help but bow down and kiss her cold lips.

"It was probably on the plane. It won't happen again. No matter what time it is, I will keep it on 24 hours a day so that you won't worry and won't cry, okay?"

"I am a little scared……"

In just that moment, Mu Mu had already thought of countless possibilities in her mind, each of which was enough to make her collapse.

"It's cold outside. Don't catch a cold. Can I carry you in?"

Vaughn patiently coaxed the little girl in his arms. This was the first time someone cried because she couldn't get through his phone. This was also the second time she cried so sadly in front of him. The last time was because of her lost first love. This time...it's because of myself...

"Mu Mu, I am Vaughan. I will never give up on you or leave you. Nothing in this world is more important than you..."

Mu Mu, who was still crying, suddenly smiled after hearing his words, not because of his sweet words or his promise, but because this man really understood her.

"Is there anything delicious at home? I'm hungry."

"Mom has given all the servants a day off today, but you can try my handiwork."

"My pleasure."

Vaughan bent down and picked him up. Before he reached the door, he met Mu's father who was wearing a coat and came out to look for his daughter.

"Uncle, why did you come out?"

"Mumu... ok, we found the person, let's go back."

Mu's father was about to go find his daughter when he looked up and saw Mu Mu being held safely.

"You put me down."

Suddenly being bumped into by his father like this, Mu Mu felt very shy.

"Uncle is someone who has been through this before. He will only be happy that we have a good relationship."

Vaughn smiled and carried the person directly to the entrance hall.

"...Vaughn? Why are you here at this time? Have you just gotten off the plane? Have you eaten?"

Mu's mother's series of cares made Vaughn feel warm in his heart. Perhaps only such a loving family can cultivate a baby like this little girl.

"I'm thinking about the little girl, and I also want to come over to see you and uncle, and have a New Year's Eve dinner here."

"Okay, the New Year's Eve dinner will be a little later. I'll cook you some noodles first. Don't go hungry. Mu Mu isn't used to eating the food on the plane, and I guess you won't be used to it either."

"Mom, just rest and I'll cook the noodles."

"I heard that someone wants to cook noodles. I wonder if I can help?"

Mu Jinqian's happy voice came from behind.

"You want to cook it yourself... Ye Ye? How do you... tell me, I'll be lenient if I confess, and strict if I resist."

Mu Mu turned around and saw Shen Ye standing next to his brother. He was stunned for a moment, then looked down and saw the hands held by the two of them, and everything became clear to him.

"Dad, Mom, Mu Mu, Vaughn, let me introduce you formally. This is my girlfriend - Shen Ye."

"You kid, Xiaoye, come here quickly and come to Auntie's side."

The daughter-in-law she had longed for was finally in her possession, and Mu’s mother was extremely happy.

"Vaughn, you seem to have fallen out of favor."

"Shen Ye will accompany your aunt on your behalf from now on, it's only because of me that I earned it."

"I'll cook some noodles for you."

"Then I'll stay with you."

Looking at the two people walking towards the kitchen, Mu's mother and Mu's father smiled at each other. Their small family did not become mutually exclusive because of one more person or one less person to speak. This was probably the most gratifying thing for them, and it was also the reason for them. The most successful thing in this life.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

On the balcony, Mu Mu took Shen Ye and drank wine and chatted.

"Your brother went to see me during the day."

"Well, I know about this. I was the one who encouraged him to go."

"When he went, Zhao Lin was also there. Your brother thought Zhao Lin was my suitor, and the two of them almost fought."

Chen Ye found it funny just thinking about it. Zhao Lin looked much younger than her at first glance, but Mu Jinqian could think of it.

……

"Sir, please speak politely. You are flirting with my girlfriend like this. Have you asked me for my opinion?"

"Boyfriend? Why haven't I heard her mention this?"

"Then you know now?"

"So what if I know? Aren't you not married yet? If a man is unmarried and a woman is unmarried, she has the right to choose who to be with and who not to be with."

"I think you are deliberately looking for trouble, right?"

"You just saw it."

"I……"

Mu Jinqian directly raised his fist and swung it over.

"Zhao Lin, have you had enough trouble?"

Shen Ye couldn't stand it anymore, so he could only interrupt the two childish people.

"Sister, he hit me first."

"Wait a minute, sister?"

……

"I never expected that my brother can actually fight. It's such a long time to see him."

Mu Mu silently praised his brother in his heart. He was really shameless for his girlfriend. He had obviously seen Zhao Lin before.

"It's just a show. Do you really think I can't see it? Don't forget, I'm from a major. If I can't even see it, how can I file a lawsuit?"

"So, actually you are just waiting for such an opportunity."

"Absolutely. Life is so short. I don't want to miss someone I like when I have the ability to love. Moreover, this person also likes me now."

"A good friend eventually became a sister-in-law. Although the title has changed, the relationship can only get better. You can't just care about my brother and ignore me."

"Don't worry, I will only bully him with you."

Shen Ye glanced at the joking man in the living room and clinked glasses with Mu Mu with a smile.

"Do you still find the dishes for the pepper and sesame feast troublesome?"

Vaughan poured a cup of tea for Mu Jinqian.

"I think so, but I have a strong ability to accept it."

Mu Jinqian turned to look at the balcony. There were two girls joking, one was his favorite sister, and the other was his favorite woman.

"Come on, Mr. Mu."

"Shouldn't you call me brother?"

"I haven't proposed to the little girl yet."

In Vaughan's heart, Mu Mu's feelings always come first.

"Come here this time, how long do you plan to stay?"

"I'll go back tomorrow afternoon. There's a meeting I can't miss."

"Mumu doesn't know?"

"Well, I haven't had time to tell her yet."

The look of the little girl crying just now still lingers in her mind.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me all the time?"
