Lu Qiong chased Mu Xiaoqiao out of the door, and didn't catch up until they reached the gate of the Royal Garden. She said breathlessly, "Xiaoqiao, don't walk so fast."

"Go and have fun, don't worry about me." Mu Xiaoqiao knew that Lu Qiong loved to play, and she didn't want to spoil her fun on such a rare opportunity tonight.

"What are you still playing?" Lu Qiong pouted. "Didn't you see the look in Yu Zihan's eyes? Are there any conflicts between you two?"

Mu Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "You think too much. She is the queen of the screen. I am a newcomer. How can there be any conflict between me and her? I am not qualified enough."

Lu Qiong nodded thoughtfully, "That's true, but why do I feel that she is hostile to you?"

"Maybe I made her feel a sense of crisis." Mu Xiaoqiao was half joking. She didn't want Lu Qiong to get involved in these things.

"Xiao Qiao, when did you become so narcissistic?" Lu Qiong was amused by her and no longer bothered about this issue.

The two were talking and laughing at the gate of the Royal Garden, and neither of them noticed that a pair of eyes were staring at them not far away.

"Brother Rui, Yu Zihan asked me to keep an eye on a woman named Mu Xiaoqiao tonight. I don't know what his purpose is." In the shadows, Sister Ling's men were making a phone call. Sister Ling instructed that all matters concerning Yu Zihan should be reported directly to Chen Taorui.

"Mu Xiaoqiao?" Chen Taorui rolled the name on his tongue. He hadn't heard it for a long time. When he heard it suddenly, his heart still beat fast.

"Yes, do you want to keep watching?"

"Things are getting more and more interesting. Listen to Miss Yu and keep watching."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Taorui imagined Mu Xiaoqiao's appearance in his mind. It had been so long since they last met. It was time to explore the secret of the Dragon Map again.

After separating from Lu Qiong, Mu Xiaoqiao asked Xiao Wei to send her back to the villa. The drama had been filmed, and neither Ruan Haoyu nor she had any work arranged for this year. After the Lantern Festival at the beginning of the new year, Mu Xiaoqiao would immediately join the crew. This time it was Xingcheng Entertainment's opening drama of the year, the fairy tale drama "Phoenix Dances the World" adapted from a big IP, and Mu Xiaoqiao was the designated female lead.

Mu Xiaoqiao knew that this was a role that Ruan Haoyu had tailored specifically for her. Ruan Haoyu had already started preparing for it since the first day she joined the company.

Ruan Haoyu really devoted all his energy to her.

As I stepped into the room, I saw Ruan Haoyu sitting on the large sofa, holding a glass of red wine, lost in thought.

Mu Xiaoqiao took off her coat and high heels and gave them to her aunt to put away. She walked over to sit next to Ruan Haoyu and waved her hand in front of him. "What are you thinking about? You look so serious."

Ruan Haoyu grabbed her hand that she waved in front of him, stared into Mu Xiaoqiao's eyes and said, "Amu, let's make our marriage public."

Mu Xiaoqiao's heart skipped a beat and she frowned, "Why?"

"Instead of letting others dig it up and expose it, why don't we admit it publicly? I want to... protect you openly."

A warm current flowed through Mu Xiaoqiao's heart. She held Ruan Haoyu's hand and said softly, "Ayu, I understand your thoughts, and I am very grateful for your protection of me. However, there are still many things I haven't figured out. I can't feel at ease to assume that I am Mrs. Ruan, and..."

She took a deep breath and said, "I hope that when I can be as tall as you, I can stand beside you as an equal and receive everyone's blessings."

Ruan Haoyu understood that she didn't want others to say that she was trying to climb the social ladder. If she announced it now, even if her career became successful in the future, she would never be able to get rid of the label that she relied on Ruan Haoyu to get to the top.

She wants to reach the top on her own.

However, Ruan Haoyu also grasped the key point, "Amu, so, you are willing to be with me, right?"

Mu Xiaoqiao's face turned red. In fact, although the two of them had not been together for a long time in this life, she had seen too much that Ruan Haoyu had done for her. Whether in her dreams or in her past life, it told her that this man was her destined one, and she had already accepted him deep in her heart.

Ruan Haoyu looked at her expectantly, feeling a little nervous. When Murong Xue confessed her love tonight, he saw that she didn't care at all, and felt very upset, thinking that she didn't care about him at all.

Mu Xiaoqiao nodded barely perceptibly, but Ruan Haoyu was overjoyed. He hugged Mu Xiaoqiao in his arms and said excitedly: "Amu, that's great, you finally accepted me."

Mu Xiaoqiao felt his joy, felt that he was hugging her with all his strength, wanting to rub her into his body, and felt happy in her heart. She coughed lightly and said, "If you hold me so tight again, your wife will suffocate to death."

Ruan Haoyu quickly let her go, scratched his head embarrassedly, and said with a smile: "I'm so happy, Amu, I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

Mu Xiaoqiao looked at him with smiling eyes and said softly, "I know, Ayu, thank you."

She knew that he had been waiting for a thousand years, and that they had a deep love in their previous life but a shallow fate. If it was really a bad fate, then in this life, she could not waste any precious second of her time.

Ruan Haoyu looked at the smiling face in front of him and could no longer restrain himself, so he bent down and kissed her.

He kissed her deeply and forcefully, and soon, he had robbed Mu Xiaoqiao of all the oxygen in her chest, causing her body to go limp. If he hadn't held the back of her head with one hand, she would have been unable to sit still.

Feeling the person in his arms' disordered breathing and difficulty breathing, Ruan Haoyu relaxed a little, but it only allowed her to catch her breath before the kiss came again like a tide. At the same time, he picked her up sideways and went upstairs, lowering his head and being reluctant to let go of her lips.

Mu Xiaoqiao hugged Ruan Haoyu's neck tightly with both hands, like a fish out of water, greedily absorbing the sweet spring water from his mouth. When she came to her senses, she found that she had arrived at his bedroom without knowing when and had a frank meeting with him.

"Amu, it's not too late for you to regret now." Ruan Haoyu held back at the last moment, forcing himself to retain a bit of clarity and asking for her opinion again. He didn't want her to suffer any harm, even if it was caused by himself.

Mu Xiaoqiao shook her head. Since she had decided to accept him, she did not leave herself any room for regret. She hooked her arms around his neck, pulled him down, and offered her red lips.

Ruan Haoyu no longer hesitated. After decades of days and nights in past and present lives, he had finally waited for this day when he could possess her completely.

They made love several times, ups and downs, until dawn, when Mu Xiaoqiao finally fell asleep due to exhaustion. However, Ruan Haoyu was not sleepy at all. In the dim morning light, he looked down at his darling wife in his arms. Her face was slightly flushed from the night's love, making her look even more charming. Her rosy lips were swollen, and her glowing white body was covered with red marks. He held her tighter in his arms with pity. He really wanted her so much. He had been enduring for so long, and now he let go so suddenly that he could hardly control himself.
