Naturally, Xi Xiaye did not dare to continue the rest of her sentence. She just shrugged.
“Are you angry?”
Seeing that he did not look good, Xi Xiaye could only lower her voice and ask.
Mu Yuchen glanced at her and ignored her.
“I misspoke, Mr. Mu. Please forgive me.”
Xi Xiaye coughed lightly and said this. She lowered her head and looked up at him. She reached out to lift his chin as she said, “Let me see if you’re really angry..”
“Xi Xiaye! You’re really getting more and more…”
Mu Yuchen felt helpless. He quickly reached out to grab her little hand that was causing trouble as he said, “Do you think I’ve been too easy on you recently?”
“I didn’t say that. You’ve always been very harsh to me,” Xi Xiaye replied.
“You’re talking nonsense with a straight face. Everyone in this family knows that you have the highest status. Even I have to obey your every word.”
“I’ll always remember to protect your dignity, Mr. Mu. I was wrong, Prince Charming. Please forgive me.”
Xi Xiaye held back her laughter as she clasped her hands together and confessed to him.
“Hypocrite,” Mu Yuchen answered her snappily.
“Father!”
Xi Xiaye was about to say something when her daughter Mu Zishu’s voice suddenly came from outside the door. Xi Xiaye was so frightened that she quickly slid down from Mu Yuchen’s lap. She quickly stood up and fixed her slightly wrinkled clothes.
“How dare you!”
Mu Yuchen glanced at her and could not help but berate her softly, “We’ve done so many inappropriate things. What are you worried about?”
Xi Xiaye glared at him. “I’m not in the mood to show off my love to you in front of the child.”
“It’s not like she hasn’t seen it before.”
Mu Yuchen could not help but chuckle when he saw that her face was a little red.
He was not lying. When Mu Zishu was just over a year old, she still slept with them. The little girl’s ears were very sharp. At night, when the couple wanted to get it going, the little girl would immediately wake up, even though they were already very careful, they were still caught by the child a few times. Fortunately, the little girl was still young and they did not know what they were doing. Otherwise…
Xi Xiaye felt embarrassed just thinking about it. When Mu Zishu was one and a half years old, Mu Yuchen had let her sleep in the baby’s room and let sister-in-law take care of her. After that, he could be considered to have become more impudent.
Of course, he did not care whether Xi Xiaye was willing or not. In the first few nights, Xi Xiaye was still worried about going to the baby’s room to sleep with Mu Zishu every night. However, every morning when she woke up, she would always find herself sleeping on the large bed in her bedroom!
She did not even need to think to know what was going on!
Before XI Xiaye could say anything, her daughter had already pushed the door open and walked in.
“Father, Mother, we can set off now!”
Mu Zishu was dressed in a small, grayish-black casual outfit. Her long hair was tied into a simple ponytail.
The little one was not like Qi Wei’er who liked girls’ attire. Mu Zishu seemed to be following her brother’s style. She was influenced by Mu Zicheng, and even her attire was a little like Mu Zicheng’s. However, this little appearance was just, it gave off a faint heroic feeling.
“Come over, let Mother tie your hair up, it’s too long. Why don’t I get Teacher Yang to come over tomorrow and trim it for you?”
Xi Xiaye reached out to her daughter as she said this.
“No, it’s not like my hair is malnourished.”
Mu Zishu replied, then she turned to look at Mu Yuchen. “Father, I’m not cutting it?”
“It’s too long. Cut a little. Unless you learn how to tidy your hair yourself.”
Mu Yuchen also agreed with Xi Xiaye’s point of view. Every morning, when his daughter woke up, he and Xi Xiaye would help her comb her hair.
Mu Zishu pouted. “Then, just a little?”
“Listen to the stylist. Sometimes, you have to try to accept other people’s opinions. You’ll get unexpected results.”
As Mu Yuchen said this, he raised his hand to pat his daughter’s head.
Mu Zishu then shrugged and turned her little head to look at Xi Xiaye. Xi Xiaye nodded in agreement as well. This time, she replied, “Alright then, I’ll let Teacher Yang decide what to do tomorrow.”
“Alright, let’s go.”
Xi Xiaye took her handbag too. Mu Yuchen tacitly got up and handed her the phone. Xi Xiaye took it and put it into her handbag, then the whole family went downstairs.
It was already a little cold outside. Today was Chinese Valentine’s Day, so Mu Yuchen and his buddies agreed to go over to Qi Lei’s place for a gathering. Mu Zicheng and the others had to catch up on their lessons, so they naturally could not come back. Qi Wei’er had already gone back, so Su Chen and Ji Zitong should be there too, there were also Zhou Zimo, Qin Su, and the others. Dongfang Liuyun even called Lan Xiu and Leng Xinran over.
Qi Lei planned to hold a small banquet at home to celebrate Chinese Valentine’s Day.
The children gradually grew up. Mu Zicheng and the others stayed in school, but Dongfang Ye and Qi Lan were still on vacation, so the siblings were having a good time with Mu Zishu.
When Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye went over, everyone had already arrived. The backyard of the Grand Lake Villa area had already set up a barbecue. Mu Zishu had just walked to the backyard entrance when she saw a bunch of people already busy working.
“Xiao Shu, you’re here!”
Qi Lan quickly saw Mu Zishu poking her head in.
“Ah Lan!”
“That’s great! Let’s go and torture my brother and Gu Liufeng! When will those two scumbags be able to outplay us? Oh right, your brother shouldn’t be coming over today, right?”
As Qi Lan said this, he looked around and did not see Mu Zicheng’s figure, only then did he feel slightly relieved.
As long as Mu Zicheng was around, those who played games like them would instantly be reduced to ashes by him. Qi Lan did not like playing with Mu Zicheng at all, that little cunning one who pretended to be profound!
“My brother is still tutoring in school. Let’s go, I’ll teach Gu Liufeng a lesson today and let him trick me into hatching eggs last time. This witch even tricked my brother into giving him a set of equipment. My brother did not even give it to me. I want to kill him!”
“Yes, witch, kill him! Sigh, no, today’s dungeon is a team battle. We’ll die quickly even if we kill him.”
Qi Lan suddenly thought of something and said regretfully.
“Ah Lan, why don’t you help me ask Brother Ye to give me that set of flowing light dance that can be armour?”
“Why don’t you ask him yourself?”
Qi Lan curled his lips.
“I’m sorry. My brother will look down on me if he finds out. I’ve been fighting for a long time, but I still can’t get that set of equipment.”
“Your brother also told you not to play games, but you did.”
“Anyway, he’s not here right now. When Brother Rui comes back, I’ll ask him to take us riding horses, okay?”
Mu Zishu said with her brows furrowed.
“If Mother and Father find out…”
“Don’t worry, I’m the one behind everything. I was the one who dragged you there. It has nothing to do with you. Uncle Qi Lei won’t do anything to me.”
Mu Zishu immediately patted her chest to make sure.
