Xu Youning finally knew how old Mu Sijue was this year.

He was under three years old.

She walked over and patted Mu Sijue. “Let Mumu go.”

At the sight of Xu Youning, Mumu’s grievances welled up in his heart, and he cried out immediately. “Auntie Youning…”

“Hey.” Mu Sijue let Mumu face him, saying, “It’s a competition between two men. You’re crying because you admit defeat, right?”

Mumu didn’t quite understand the meaning of the competition between two men.

However, Auntie Youning had told him that he should be a little man. No matter what happened, he could not cry easily!

Also, he actually cried in front of the bad man. What a shame!

Mumu wiped away his tears quickly, and then he bravely looked into Mu Sijue’s eyes and stubbornly held back his tears.

Mu Sijue loosened his grip with satisfaction.

Mumu didn’t immediately throw himself into Xu Youning’s arms. Instead, he looked at Mu Sijue and said firmly, “I will definitely defeat you once, humph!”

After that, he turned to Xu Youning and said in a childish voice, “Auntie Youning, I don’t dare to sleep alone. I am afraid.”

Xu Youning looked at Mu Sijue, who could teach Mumu to be a man but would never allow Mumu to sleep with her.

Xu Youning could only comfort the little boy. “Then you sleep with Granny Zhou, okay?”

“Nooo…” The little boy stamped his feet and kept shaking the hem of Xu Youning’s clothes. He was upset and asked, “Why can that bad man sleep in the same room with you?”

Xu Youning thought that if she could not find a reason to convince Mumu, the three of them could not sleep tonight.

After thinking for a while, Xu Youning finally thought of a plausible excuse. “Because… Mr. Mu has to accompany the baby…”

Mumu glanced at Mu Sijue and pursed his lips. “Is the bad man really the baby’s father?”

“…” Xu Youning nodded and said, “Yes.”

Instantly, the little boy frowned and asked, “Why is Mr. Mu’s baby in your belly?”

“Because… the baby is also mine.” Xu Youning touched Mumu’s head and changed the subject. “You want your daddy to be with you, right? So does the baby. So, you sleep with Granny Zhou, okay?”

Mumu lowered his head and gave in. “Okay…”

“Good boy.” Xu Youning kissed the little boy’s face. “You go to find Granny Zhou first.”

Mumu hung her head and walked out in dismay. When he saw Aunt Zhou, he asked politely, “Granny Zhou, may I sleep with you?”

“Of course.” Aunt Zhou was very glad to hear that. “You must be sleepy. I’ll take you to bed now.”

“Okay.” Mumu smiled and followed Aunt Zhou obediently.

Only Mu Sijue and Xu Youning were left in the children’s room.

Xu Youning could not help asking, “Mu Sijue, are you a kid?”

Mu Sijue said with a faint smile, “Don’t you know the answer best?”

“…” Xu Youning almost choked entirely. “I’m going back to our room.”

Mu Sijue didn’t go out with Xu Youning, because when she turned around, his mobile phone vibrated in his coat.

He looked at the number and answered the phone.

“Seventh Brother.” His subordinate reported, “The police have found Liang Zhong’s body. Also, Kang Ruicheng should soon start suspecting that his son is here.”

Mu Sijue said, “Well, is there anything else?”

“No,” said the subordinate. “That’s all for now.”

Mu Sijue hung up the phone, and he was about to go back to his room when his phone rang again.

Sure enough, it was Kang Ruicheng this time.

Mu Sijue answered the phone unhurriedly, and immediately, Kang Ruicheng’s sarcastic voice came through the phone. “How could Mu Sijue, who is said to be noble, kidnap others?”

Mu Sijue said with a sneer, “Kang Ruicheng, haven’t you figured out who kidnapped your son yet?”

“At first, it was Liang Zhong, but he is dead, so Mumu is in your hands now, right?” Kang Ruicheng’s voice became more and more gloomy.

Mu Sijue did not deny it. “Your son is indeed here with me.”

“What are you going to do?” Kang Ruicheng’s anger almost spread over through the mobile phone signal.

Mu Sijue said still in an unhurried tone, “I spent a lot of effort to rescue the little guy from Liang Zhong. I haven’t figured out what I’m going to do with him yet. But your call just reminds me that the little guy seems to be your only son…”

“Mu Sijue!” Kang Ruicheng roared, but his voice soon calmed down. He laughed and said, “Oh, will Mu Sijue do such a thing?”

“Don’t believe the rumors.” Mu Sijue said slowly, “In fact, I’m capable of doing anything.” The threat in his words was undeniable.

“What do you mean?” Kang Ruicheng asked angrily, “What are you going to do to Mumu?”

“Have a guess.” After that, Mu Sijue was about to hang up the phone.

Before Mu Sijue did that, Kang Ruicheng shouted, “Mu Sijue, don’t think that you can threaten me just because you took Youning away and kidnapped Mumu!”

Mu Sijue’s voice cooled down. “Kang Ruicheng, do you really want me to tell you that you are a loser? To tell you the truth, your son himself is not willing to return home.”

“Impossible!”

Kang Ruicheng firmly denied Mu Sijue’s words.

He always thought that Mumu was his son, and it was impossible for him to be unwilling to go home.

Mu Sijue threw another bomb at Kang Ruicheng. “Also, Xu Youning will never go back.”

“Do you mean that you won’t let A Ning go?” Kang Ruicheng laughed. “Mu Sijue, you’re too naive. Do you think I’ll let it go? Do you think A Ning will stay with you obediently?”

“She will.” Mu Sijue said calmly and firmly, “Xu Youning will give birth to our child, and she will never have anything to do with you again.”

Kang Ruicheng was stunned. “You actually know it?”

“Yes, I know everything.” Mu Sijue exposed Kang Ruicheng’s idea. “I even know that you want to lie that Xu Youning is pregnant with your child. Unfortunately, I won’t be fooled by you.”

“A Ning told you that?” Kang Ruicheng’s voice was full of hatred.

“I don’t need her to tell me.” Mu Sijue said word by word, “Kang Ruicheng, I know Xu Youning better than you. The child in her belly can’t be yours.”

Kang Ruicheng said unwillingly, “Why are you so sure?”

“Because you are the murderer who killed her grandmother.” Mu Sijue revealed Kang Ruicheng’s crime. “You are her real enemy. She could not allow herself to be pregnant with her enemy’s child.”

“You told Youning that I am her real enemy?” Kang Ruicheng laughed. “Do you think Youning will buy your story?”

Mu Sijue also laughed. “You will know the answer by seeing if she’s willing to go back to the Kang family.”

After that, Mu Sijue hung up the phone without hesitation and returned to his room.

He could confidently tell Kang Ruicheng that Xu Youning would not go back, but in fact, he was not sure.

Xu Youning finished taking a shower, opened the bathroom door, and found Mu Sijue outside. Before she could say anything, Mu Sijue suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist and lowered his head to kiss her lips.

He was extremely anxious and exerted more strength than before, as if he wanted to melt Xu Youning by his passionate kiss.

“Mu Sijue …”

Xu Youning pushed Mu Sijue and wanted to say something, but the rest of her sentence was blocked by Mu Sijue’s tongue and lips.

Mu Sijue pushed Xu Youning a step back, pressed her against the bathroom door, and gazed at her.

His eyes were gleaming, and there seemed to be two clusters of fire burning in his eyes. However, the fire did not illuminate the darkness and mystery around his body but only reflected his strong power.

Xu Youning looked into Mu Sijue’s eyes. Perhaps because they were too close, she felt as if she had been suppressed by Mu Sijue and could not make a sound.

Sometimes, Mu Sijue had such an aura.

Mu Sijue kissed Xu Youning’s lips again. This time, he was much gentler. His warm breath sprayed on Xu Youning’s skin like a furry little hand stroking her.

He held Xu Youning’s face and murmured, “Youning…”

The hot and aggressive kiss still occupied Xu Youning’s senses. She thought that she might have misheard him. After a long while, she realized that Mu Sijue was really calling her name.

What was he going to say?

“Stay with me.” Mu Sijue’s voice and kiss were full of affection. “Don’t go back to the Kang family again. I won’t allow you to go back again!”

From the first day when Mu Sijue had brought her back, Xu Youning tried her best to avoid this topic. Later, Mu Sijue did not mention it.

Why did he suddenly mention it again now?

“Mu Sijue,” Xu Youning looked into Mu Sijue’s eyes. “What’s wrong with you?”

Mu Sijue did not answer. He stared at Xu Youning stubbornly and said, “Promise me.”

Xu Youning didn’t know if it was her illusion, but there was a trace of fear in Mu Sijue’s eyes.

Was he still afraid that she would leave?

Could it be that… Mumu had provoked Mu Sijue?

However, Mumu was only four years old. He was just a child who did not pose any threat at all.

But it did not seem difficult to understand. After all, Mu Sijue was three years old…

Many complicated emotions flashed through Xu Youning’s mind, and in the end, there was only disbelief left.

She almost agreed on the spur of the moment.

In order to resist her impulse, Xu Youning took the initiative to kiss Mu Sijue.

She was a woman of an unbending character, but her lips were unexpectedly soft, like fresh jelly, moist and full, tempting people to taste them.

Mu Sijue pushed Xu Youning into the bathroom and slammed the door shut. He quickly took off Xu Youning’s pajamas she had just put on.

Xu Youning was also unwilling to fall behind. She ripped off Mu Sijue’s clothes and wantonly explored his body with her soft lips.

Mu Sijue felt Xu Youning’s kiss, and his breathing became heavier and heavier. He held Xu Youning tighter.

At this moment, not only did he want to feel Xu Youning’s skin, but he also wanted to rub her into his body so that she could stay with him forever.

He used to think that no one in the world could disturb his mind.

But that person had actually appeared a long time ago.

It was Xu Youning, Xu Youning…

Mu Sijue turned around with Xu Youning in his arms and pressed her against the warm wall. “From now on, don’t call that little guy Mumu again!”

Xu Youning looked at Mu Sijue in a daze. She wondered why he mentioned Mumu at such a time.
