Mu Zhenghong stared at the figure that gradually vanished in his sight with a bow, then he stopped his gloomy gaze on Weng Bisa.
Her pupils contracted as she said in a trembling voice, "I'm not too clear about what happened between them. I thought …"
Before Weng Bisa could explain herself, she was interrupted by Mu Zhenghong with a wave of his hand, "Forget it, you can leave now!"
Weng Bisa wanted to inform her son as soon as possible, so she did not stay any longer and hurriedly left the study.
After Weng Bisa left, Mu Zhenghong slowly opened the drawer and took out a document.
This document looked slightly dull and old. It should have been kept here for a long time.
He slowly opened the document, and on the first page of the document was written 'Resignation Letter'. Due to the sales manager, Mu Shengchen revealing the secrets of the company causing the Mu's Group to suffer a huge loss, therefore, Mu's Group unanimously decided to revoke Mu Shengchen's position as manager. At the back of the document, there were Mu Zhenghong's and Mu Shengchen's signatures. He remembered that day when Mu Shengchen regained his consciousness after the car accident, he signed his name without any expression when he received the letter. Since then, he had moved out of the Mu Family Courtyard to his own apartment.
If it was not for the old lady's request, he would not even take a step into the Mu Family courtyard.
And ever since that day, both of the father and son had become strangers.
After he returned home, he was furious, hearing the news of Mu Shengchen's marriage. He was not angry that he married Ning Qianyu, he was angry that he, as his father, was the last one to know about it.
Mu Zhenghong then took out his phone and pressed on a number…
When Ning Qianyu and Mu Shengchen returned, Ye Xi was already waiting outside the apartment.
After entering, they entered the study room and never came out. Only left Ning Qianyu sitting in the living room in a daze, forgetting to visit her mother in the morning.
Ye Xi respectfully stood in front of his desk and reported, "Young Master Chen, President Mu wants everyone to go back to Mu Family Courtyard for dinner tomorrow night."
Mu Shengchen's face sunk. It was hard to tell what he was thinking, but he immediately returned to his original calm demeanor, leaning back lazily in his leather chair.
Looking at Young Master Chen's calm face, Ye Xi was unable to guess what was Young Master Chen thinking, no matter how deep he tried to delve into his thoughts. Logically speaking, ever since President Mu had returned from M Country, he caused such a big fuss in Mu Family, he should not have been so calm, at least he should have started to make some preparations or arrangements to face the Mu Family.
After a long while, Mu Shengchen finally opened his mouth, "What did grandma say?"
When Ye Xi heard Young Master Chen's words, he suddenly came to a realization. No wonder Young Master Chen brought Miss Ning over during Old Madam's Mu birthday. It was to let Old Madam Mu knew Miss Ning's existence first and accepted her. Therefore, when President Mu came back, no matter how he opposed the marriage, the old lady would deal with him.
"The old lady told you not to worry about it," Ye Xi lowered his head and answered.
Mu Shengchen was not the least bit surprised, because he already knew that such a day would come.
"Ye Xi, you don't need to worry about Mu Family's matter. Just focus on the subsidiary company and arrange it as soon as possible."
"Yes sir!" Ye Xi opened his briefcase and took out some documents to hand to Mu Shengchen, "Young Master Chen, this is Miss Ning's enrolment letter. One week later, she will need to report to Professor Mo Yan of the Department of Neurosurgery at the Provincial Medical University."
"Mm, you may leave now," Mu Shengchen took the document and waved at Ye Xi.
He then left from the study room.
After Ye Xi left, Ning Qianyu stood up anxiously, "Assistant Ye, how's he?"
"Young Master Chen?" Ye Xi was slightly surprised as he looked at Ning Qianyu. With a sly glint in his eyes, he said hesitantly, "Miss Ning, Young Master Chen might…"
Upon hearing Ye Xi say that, Ning Qianyu immediately tensed up, "What's wrong him?"
Ye Xi looked towards the direction of the study with a troubled expression, "Miss Ning, you should take a look for yourself."
Ning Qianyu did not wait for him to finish and directly ran towards the study room. A smile appeared on Ye Xi's face, "Young Master Chen, Miss Ning really cares about you," He thought within him.
Then he left the apartment as fast as he could. He was just joking with her, if he did not leave, was he going to wait for Young Master Chen to come after him?
"Chen, what's wrong?" Ning Qianyu pushed open the study door and rushed in anxiously.
However, she found that Mu Shengchen was sitting in front of his desk and looking at her with a deadpan expression. His handsome face was as cold as usual, causing her unable to see through his thoughts. However, it was definitely not what she had expected.
What was going on?
Seeing Ning Qianyu rushed in, Mu Shengchen's ice-cold eyes revealed a hint of shock, but he quickly retracted it, "Is there anything you need?"
"Well, Assistant Ye said you might... And then I misunderstood, I don't know." Due to being too nervous, Ning Qianyu was at a loss for words.
Ye Xi said he was not well, so she ran in. She was worried about him! Mu Shengchen's heart rippled.
"I'm fine."
"About that, I'll go out first," Ning Qianyu pointed outside awkwardly.
"Wait," Mu Shengchen stopped her.
Ning Qianyu looked at Mu Shengchen doubtfully, then Mu Shengchen passed the enrolment letter of the provincial hospital sent by Ye Xi to Ning Qianyu from the desk, "Your application has been approved."
"Really?" Ning Qianyu took the enrolment letter from Mu Shengchen with excitement on her face.
"Yes," Seeing her so happy, cheered Mu Shengchen's up too.
Suddenly, Ning Qianyu's face turned pale and her body went limp.
A sharp pain gushed out from her lower abdomen.
Very soon, the jeans were stained with a shocking blood-red!
"Ugh!" Ning Qianyu cried out in pain as she bent over.
"What's the matter?" Mu Shengchen's expression changed drastically when he noticed the bloodstains on Ning Qianyu's jeans, not noticing his starry eyes were emitting a cold and sinister aura, immediately maneuvered his wheelchair next to Ning Qianyu.
Ning Qianyu crouched down and replied anxiously, "It's nothing, I want to go back… to my room."
"What's going on? Why is there blood?" Mu Shengchen's voice was low and his dark gaze was filled with worries.
"Don't worry about that, I'm fine," Enduring the tearing pain, tears of grievance welled up in Ning Qianyu's eyes.
Why did it have to be my menstruation today? It was okay to have period today but, why did it have to hurt so much?
"How can I not worry?" Mu Shengchen squinted his black coal eyes with a hint of threat within.
"Come here!" He stretched out his hand and ordered in a low voice, with an domineering aura.
"No, it's my 'that'... I'll go back to my room," Ning Qianyu's face turned paler and her body became colder. Her hands holding onto the desk turned paler too.
She steadied herself and moved weakly out of the study room. Mu Shengchen noticed her pale face blushed slightly, probably because she was feeling embarrassed.
Mu Shengchen, who was following behind Ning Qianyu, locked his gazes onto Ning Qianyu's jeans. His gazes darkened as her jeans were gradually dyed with the red bloodstain. In the end, he pulled Ning Qianyu into his embrace.
"Put me down quickly, I'll dirty your clothes," Ning Qianyu struggled.
Mu Shengchen had his hands around Ning Qianyu's waist. However, he did bother her struggling, just directly sent her to the bed.
Ning Qianyu blushed as she whispered, "I need to buy some sanitary pads."
"Got it," Mu Shengchen controlled his wheelchair and left with a cold face. On the outside, he did not seem awkward at all, but the redness on his ears betrayed him.
"Thank you," Ning Qianyu hid her face in the blanket embarrassingly.
After Mu Shengchen left, she got off the bed, opened the cabinet to get some clean clothes and went into the bathroom.
After changing into clean clothes, Ning Qianyu lay back down on the bed. The fatigue and coldness causing her to fall into a deep sleep.
About half an hour later, Mu Shengchen returned with a bag in his hand.
His gaze swept over Ning Qianyu's slightly pale face. He then opened the bag, took out a bag of sanitary pads, and looked at them. Soft? Day? Night? Longer? Cushion?
He rubbed the pain between his eyebrows and went to the bedside to wake Ning Qianyu up.
"I bought it, but I don't know how to use it. Could you do it yourself?" When he said that, Mu Shengchen's handsome face was looking slightly awkward.
"You should go out first, I'll do it myself," Ning Qianyu whispered as her face sullen.
Mu Shengchen left the room without saying anything.
Ning Qianyu took out a packet of sanitary pad from the big bag and hurried into the bathroom.
On the other side, Mu Shengchen was very seriously searching on the internet about the do's and don'ts during period.
"Menstrual pain? No wonder her face was so pale. Lower abdomen pain? No wonder she was in so much pain just now. Drinking brown sugar water during a woman's menstruation is beneficial to alleviate the pain, and requires a light diet…" Mu Shengchen muttered and finally made a call to Ye Xi.
"Ye Xi, order some brown sugar water and bland porridge. Hurry," After the call, Mu Shengchen returned to Ning Qianyu's room.
Ning Qianyu frowned slightly and curled up on the bed like the shape of a prawn.
In the early winter, the room was already somewhat chilly.
Mu Shengchen pursed his lips and turned on the heat air-conditioning in the room. Then he maneuvered the wheelchair to the bedside, moved his body to the bed, and lay down beside Ning Qianyu, embracing her into his arms.
Ning Qianyu shrank into his embrace in a daze making her unwanted to leave such a warm embrace.
Mu Shengchen slightly lifted the corner of his lips as he gazed at the face in his embrace, looking like a sleeping child.
Just like that, Mu Shengchen served as Ning Qianyu's warmth bag throughout the night.
To Ning Qianyu, this was definitely the best warmth bag in her life.
After realizing she woke up in someone's warm embrace and there was a warm hand placing on her lower abdomen, she let out a sigh of relief.
"Mom, how did you know I'm having period?"
However, when she found out that her 'mother' had turned out to be Mu Shengchen, all the flashbacks vanished, leaving her mind black and instantly blushed.
