"President Mu can work peacefully today, right?"

"can."

Xu Shenting breathed a sigh of relief only after receiving Mu Chaoran's affirmative answer.

"What's wrong with you?" Xu Shenting asked, "I think Su City is calm and peaceful. There's nothing worthy of you running back in the middle of the night."

"There's something wrong with Lin Xige."

"What happened to her?"

In Xu Shenting's opinion, Lin Xige is a typical "troublemaker".

"Maybe..." Mu Chaoran pursed his lips, "She knows about my meeting with Han Jingjing."

Xu Shenting was stunned: "Ah?"

"She thought I had a woman outside."

"Ouch!"

Mu Chaoran frowned: "Tell me, can I not rush back to Su City?"

"You deserve it." Xu Shenting replied, "What did I say before? I told you not to go see Han Jingjing and not to get close to this ghost, but you refused to listen. Now you know what's going on, right? Problems are starting to arise."

What Xu Shenting advocated from the beginning to the end was to take advantage of the current situation when the time was right to quickly tell the truth and bring the plan to a perfect conclusion.

All are happy.

It would be easy to explain to the Mu family, and Lin Xige could also reveal her identity.

The results of it?

Mu Chaoran refused.

He said he was afraid that Lin Xige wouldn't be able to accept it, that Lin Xige would hate him. How come, if he kept dragging it out and lying to her, Lin Xige wouldn't hate him anymore? Would she be able to accept it?

I really don't know why Mu Chaoran is usually so wise and brave, but when it comes to Lin Xige, his IQ is like that of a fool and he is completely useless.

"I'm just guessing, I haven't confirmed it yet." Mu Chaoran raised his hand and pressed his forehead, "So... I don't know what to do at the moment."

So, all he could do was wait and see and keep his troops in place.

Xu Shenting rolled his eyes and suddenly said, "Actually, this is a good thing."

"Good?" Mu Chaoran asked, "What's good about it?"

Is it necessary to say such sarcastic remarks?

"Think about it. If Lin Xige knew that you had a woman outside, but she didn't cry to you or make a fuss with you, but just threw a tantrum and became a little cold, leaving you guessing and confused, what does this mean?"

Mu Chaoran shook his head: "What does that mean?"

"She loves you." Xu Shenting replied, "If she didn't have much affection for you, she would have confronted you directly, asking you who Han Jingjing is and what your relationship is, and making a big fuss. If you can give a reasonable explanation, then you can continue living together. If you can't, then don't live with it."

"But now, her attitude is ambiguous. She doesn't show her cards or question you. She just keeps it to herself, slowly digesting and calming down. This just shows that she is afraid of losing you. She is afraid that if she asks, your relationship will be completely gone and your marriage will fall apart. She doesn't want to lose you, so she doesn't have the courage to speak. In addition, she is more willing to believe that you will not betray her."

Mu Chaoran's tightly furrowed brows suddenly frowned even more tightly.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's that expression?" Xu Shenting looked at him unhappily. "Did I analyze it wrong?"

"Correct."

"Then don't you have an expression of sudden enlightenment?"

Mu Chaoran was silent for a few seconds before answering: "I feel sorry for her."

Xu Shenting: “???”

To be honest, as a single man with little emotional experience and whose life is focused only on studies and career, Xu Shenting really cannot understand Mu Chaoran's thoughts.

Mu Chaoran didn't want to talk any more, so he turned around, walked to the desk and opened the folder.

Start working on it.

The sooner I finish, the sooner I can go home and see her.

Mu Chaoran gives Lin Xige endless love and favoritism, and is tolerant and considerate in everything, just hoping that she can truly be herself, act recklessly, express her emotions boldly and casually, and live a more indulgent life.

She should have been the apple of everyone's eye.

He doesn't want her to be sensible, he doesn't want her to be patient, and he doesn't want her to put herself in a difficult position and keep everything in her heart.

However, after being together for so long, Lin Xige is still the same Lin Xige he first met, without much change.

Maybe… he hasn’t been with her long enough.

Before that, she had lived for more than 20 years in grievance, instability and turmoil.

It doesn't matter, take your time, Mu Chaoran thought, there will always be a day in the future when Lin Xige will become what he wants to see -

Bright and free, do whatever you want.

.........

Haicheng.

Mu's old house.

"Look, old man, these flowers are blooming so beautifully," a woman's sweet voice came from the garden, "I can see that you take good care of them. You really love life and have good taste. I must learn from you."

Mr. Mu laughed: "You are such a sweet-talker, girl."

I saw Han Jingjing standing next to Grandpa Mu, with a lively and natural expression, and they were strolling slowly in the garden together.

"I'm not being sweet, I'm just telling the truth," Han Jingjing also laughed, "I also heard that the decoration and design of this house were all done by you, and I immediately admire you even more."

Mr. Mu has never closed his mouth since Han Jingjing appeared.

"Our Mu family consists of only boys. Since they were little, I have always been strict with them and never spoiled them. Because I didn't know what it was like to have a granddaughter, I thought raising a boy was almost the same as raising a girl. Now that I see you, I understand how wrong my previous thoughts were."

Old Master Mu couldn't help but sigh, "Girls are really considerate. They chat and laugh with me, and they speak from the bottom of my heart. The others... are busier than the others. Even if they meet, they don't know how to say something nice. I'm thankful that they don't make me angry."

Han Jingjing replied: "Old man, if you like me so much, I will come to accompany you whenever I have time. As long as you don't find me annoying."

“How could that be? I can’t even say welcome.” Old Master Mu looked at her, “If this goes well, you’ll marry into our Mu family. Then…hahahahaha!”

Han Jingjing looked shy and lowered her head.

After meeting Mu Chaoran, Han Jingjing realized that he was not very interested in her.

Not salty, not bland, not cold, not hot.

Han Jingjing has had a crush on Mu Chaoran for a long time, and now the Mu and Han families are trying to bring them together, so she must seize this opportunity.

Mu Chaoran can only be hers.

Since Mu Chaoran is busy and doesn't want to bother with her... It doesn't matter, she will use a roundabout tactic.

Deal with the people around Mu Chaoran first.

The first one, naturally, is to start with Grandpa Mu.

Han Jingjing has always had a way of pleasing the elders. Besides, she is a girl, so small things like acting coquettishly and cutely are easy for her to do.

Look, Mr. Mu was completely coaxed into submission by her.

"Grandpa, this, this fate hasn't even started yet." Han Jingjing bit her lower lip, her cheeks flushed, "Please don't make fun of me."
