After she left, Ye Xi then asked, "Young Master Chen, should I address her as Young Mistress now?"
Mu Shengchen lowered his head to eat his bun and ignored him. However, he was very satisfied with the word 'Young Mistress'. Just by thinking of it, Mu Shengchen revealed a gentle smile on his face, causing Ye Xi, who sat opposite him, to have a shock of his life and almost choke to death.
Ahem Ahem, was Young Master Chen admitting it?
Ning Qianyu brought out the snow toad porridge on a tray, along with Ye Xi favorite chili sauce.
"Thank you, Young MIstress," Ye Xi took the chili sauce from her with a mischievous smile.
Hearing Ye Xi called her Young Mistress, Ning Qianyu's face instantly turned red with heat growing in her cheeks, causing her not to know how to respond. Mu Shengchen reached out and held her hand under the table. Ning Qianyu then turned her head and looked at Mu Shengchen, it just so happened to meet Mu Shengchen's eyes that were as deep as the midnight ocean.
After some time, Ning Qianyu embarrassedly shifted her eyes away and stirred the porridge awkwardly with a spoon, taking a sip, "Is the soup dumplings delicious? Would you like some porridge? There are still a lot in the microwave."
"Yes. Listen to my wife will get me fortunes," Mu Shengchen slightly parted his mouth as if he was waiting for Ning Qianyu to feed him.
Ning Qianyu choked on the porridge when she heard Mu Shengchen called her as his wife.
Mu Shengchen immediately brought her a glass of water and patted her back, "What are you so excited about?"
"N-Nothing," Ning Qianyu drank a mouthful of water while Mu Shengchen, on the other hand, gently caressed Ning Qianyu's back with his gloomy eyes.
On the opposite side, Ye Xi covered his eyes, "Tsk, tsk, stop being so lovey-dovey. Are both of you try to torture a single man like me?" Then without waiting for Mu Shengchen's gaze, he quickly got up and said, "I will go to the study room and wait for you. Both of you should continue."
Ning Qianyu's face became extremely anxious upon hearing Ye Xi's words. Mu Shengchen chuckled, cupped Ning Qianyu's face in his hands, and kissed the corner of her lips, saying gently, "We are husband and wife anyway. Why are you being shy?"
"Right." Ning Qianyu lifted her head and stared at Mu Shengchen seriously with her eyes filled with Mu Shengchen.
Mu Shengchen held Ning Qianyu tightly in his arms, adored how she looked at him, it was as if he was the only one in the world. He just loved that he was the only one in her eyes.
Seeing Mu Shengchen enter the study room, Ye Xi immediately stood up, "Young Master Chen."
"What did Grandma say to her last night?" Mu Shengchen asked coldly, completely different from the gentle Mu Shengchen in the dining room just now.
"Young Master Chen, the old lady wants Young Madam to persuade you to take up the position of Sales Manager again," Ye Xi secretly glanced at Young Master Chen, he did not know whether Young Master Chen would go into a rage or not.
Mu Shengchen was expressionless, so it was impossible for him to delved into his thoughts.
After a long while, he then said, "Go and investigate the situation within the Mu's."
Ye Xi hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Young Master Chen, ever since President Mu decided to make you the Sales Manager in the Mu's Group previously, Manager Weng and Deputy CEO Mu have frequently contact each other. It seems like their relationship is not ordinary."
Countless scenes of colliding into Weng Bisa and Mu Zhengsheng flashed through Mu Shengchen's mind. He used to find it strange but he did not really bother about it, and now that Ye Xi reminded him, he put all the pieces of memories together and finally discovered the truth.
Mu Shengchen waved towards Ye Xi, then whispered into his ears. Mu Shengchen said something in Ye Xi's ear, Ye Xi who was usually calm, had a shock of his life, "Young Master Chen, I'll immediately deal with it."
"Mm, make sure to do the job properly."
"Yes."
After Ye Xi left, Mu Shengchen and Ning Qianyu went to the hospital to visit her mother.
Just as they got out of the elevator, they heard a few young nurses in the nurse's office whispering to each other.
"How is it? Did that man came to visit Madam Ning again? How many days has it been now? "
"It's been three days already, and Madam Ning has been chasing him away every day, yet he still comes every day."
"What do you think his relationship with Madam Ning is?"
Hearing the discussion inside, Ning Qianyu frowned. Suddenly, the nurses saw Ning Qianyu standing there and immediately shut their mouths, "Miss Ning, are you here to visit Madam Ning?"
"Yes," Ning Qianyu nodded and pushed Mu Shengchen towards her mother's ward.
The moment they walked over, they heard Ning Shujun's voice coming from the ward.
"Get out of here, I don't want to see you."
"Shujun, don't be mad. I'll leave, I'll leave."
"Take your things away, I don't want anything from you."
As Ning Shujun finished her sentence, the ward was filled with noises.
After a while, a middle-aged man walked out of the ward looking distress.
When Du Zhongyu saw Ning Qianyu and Mu Shengchen standing at the door of the ward, he was slightly stunned for a moment and then quickly left.
Ning Qianyu then pushed Mu Shengchen into Ning Shujun's ward. Before she could say anything, a pillow was thrown at her face. Mu Shengchen quickly took the pillow.
Ning Qianyu looked strangely at Ning Shujun, "Mom, why are you so agitated? Didn't the doctor say that you should always remain calm after the surgery?"
When Ning Shujun saw that it was her daughter and son-in-law at the door, she felt slightly embarrassed.
"Qianyu, why didn't you inform me first before both of you came over?"
"If I had called you first, how would I be able to see such a scene?" Ning Qianyu replied snappily.
Ning Shujun did not answer because she was wrong, Mu Shengchen then put the pillow back on Ning Shujun's back.
"Qianyu," Mu Shengchen held Ning Qianyu's hand, hinting her not to be so aggressive.
She then looked at Mu Shengchen and pursed her lips, "Mom, who was that man?"
Just when Ning Shujun was relieved that her daughter and son-in-law were in a good relationship, Ning Qianyu asked her a question that she did not how to respond, causing her face stiffened, "He's probably a psychopath who went into the wrong ward."
Ning Qianyu looked at her mother and said casually, "Psycho who ran into the wrong ward every day? I've heard from the nurses that he comes here every day," Ning Qianyu bluntly exposed her mother's lies.
Having her lie exposed by Ning Qianyu, Ning Shujun nervously covered up, "The nurses are talking nonsense."
"The nurses these days are really lacking in manners, they actually spout nonsense behind my back. I should make a complaint," Just when Ning Qianyu was about to talk to the nurses, she was stopped by Ning Shujun, "He's someone I knew a long time ago."
"Oh?" Ning Qianyu blinked at Mu Shengchen and then sat on the bed with her mother in her arms, "So, he's your old friend? Then find some time to invite him for a meal…"
Without waiting for Ning Qianyu to finish her sentence, Ning Shujun interrupted her panicky, "No need, he's an unimportant person."
"Oh," Ning Qianyu looked at Mu Shengchen as if she really believed her mother's words.
Ning Shujun felt relived when Ning Qianyu did not further ask about Du Zhongyu's identity.
They had accompanied Ning Shujun the whole morning, even had lunch together at the hospital.
Since Ning Qianyu still needed to attend classes at the institute in the afternoon, Mu Shengchen first sent her to the institute before returning to his apartment.
