Mumu was extremely frustrated.

He had already used his final trick, but why was the baby still crying?

Moreover, why did the baby’s face pucker when she was crying? It wouldn’t make her look pretty…

Upon hearing her daughter’s crying, Su Jian’an came over to pick up the little girl and slowly comforted her. It took her a lot of effort to calm the little girl down.

Mumu approached her and asked, “Auntie, why is the baby crying?”

Su Jian’an thought for a moment and said, “Because the baby wants me to hold her.”

Mumu was even more confused. “Why does the baby want you to hold her? Doesn’t she want me?”

Su Jian’an smiled and answered Mumu’s question patiently. “Because I am the baby’s mom.”

Mumu tilted his head and said, “I understand.”

Xiangyi moved in her mother’s arms. After a short while, she looked at Mumu.

Mumu climbed onto the sofa and made a cute face at Xiangyi.

Probably because she was in her mother’s arms, Xiangyi was in a good mood. She was amused by Mumu and slightly raised the corner of her mouth. Then, small dimples faintly appeared on her delicate and tender cheeks.

“Eh?” Xiao Yunyun approached them and asked, “Cousin, does Xiangyi have dimples?”

Su Jian’an also saw it, and she was stunned. “I didn’t find it before…”

“Mumu.” Xiao Yunyun could not wait to call Mumu. “You make her smile again.”

Mumu made a face at Xiangyi again. This time, Xiangyi was even happier. She laughed out loud, and the dimples on her face became even more obvious.

Xiao Yunyun felt that her heart was going to melt. “Our little Xiangyi has always been good-looking, and now the dimples. She will have fans around the universe when she grows up!”

Mumu asked in confusion, “Sister Yunyun, what do you mean by the saying ‘having fans around the universe’?”

Xiao Yunyun thought for a moment and asked, “Have you ever heard of ‘having fans around the world’? It can be used to describe someone who is very charming. I think that Xiangyi can charm the living beings around the whole universe, so she has fans around the universe!”

Mumu blinked his eyes and replied with an “Oh”, but he didn’t really understand.

Xiao Yunyun felt that she should make it easier to understand, so she asked Mumu, “Do you think the baby is beautiful?”

Mumu nodded without hesitation. “Yes!”

Xiao Yunyun then asked with satisfaction, “Do you like the baby?”

Without hesitation, Mumu continued to nod. “Yes, I like her just as I like Auntie Youning!”

“Look!” Xiao Yunyun snapped her fingers loudly. “You’ve been charmed by Xiangyi!”

Mumu had a dazed expression on his face, and he looked at Xiangyi, only to find that she had fallen asleep in her mother’s arms.

He tilted his head and lightly closed his mouth, and in the end, he didn’t refute Xiao Yunyun’s words.

Before long, Mu Sijue and Lu Boyan came out of the ward.

Mu Sijue said, “Let’s go.”

Mumu got up obediently and held Xu Youning’s hand.

Lu Boyan looked at Su Jian’an. “Let’s go back too.”

Su Jian’an nodded and put Xiangyi in the stroller. She pulled down the dust-proof cover and suddenly remembered something. She looked at Xu Youning and asked, “Youning, have you done a pregnancy test yet?”

Xu Youning was so scared that she almost broke out in a cold sweat. It took her a lot of effort to look normal. “Not yet…”

Mu Sijue frowned. “Pregnancy test?”

“It’s a routine checkup during pregnancy,” said Su Jian’an. “Remember to take Youning to do it once, and then listen to the doctor’s arrangements about subsequent regular checkups. Hey, since you are already here, why don’t you do it now?”

A burst of bone-chilling coldness was poured on Xu Youning’s heart, spreading to her whole body along with the flow of the blood.

If she hadn’t received special training, she would be uncontrollably trembling all over.

How could she avoid this checkup?

Mu Sijue checked the time and said, “Not today. I’ll arrange for her to do it later.”

They had been out for so long. If Kang Ruicheng got the news, he would not miss this opportunity.

He had to take Xu Youning and the little guy back to the villa on the top of the mountain as soon as possible.

Xu Youning secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and her body gradually warmed up. She followed Mu Sijue downstairs.

Lu Boyan and Su Jian’an were walking in front of them.

Lu Boyan was wearing a long black coat, while Su Jian’an was wearing a beige coat. Their clothes were a collection in the same series of the same brand, showing a kind of sweet tacit understanding.

Each of them was pushing a stroller, and they walked side by side. It could be shown even from their backs that they were a perfect couple.

Xu Youning thought that she could only envy such a scene from afar.

Uncle Qian had already driven the car downstairs before the inpatient building. When he saw Lu Boyan and Su Jian’an pushing the two little guys out, he immediately got off the car and opened the door. Several bodyguards quickly surrounded them and helped them get in the car.

After she settled the two little guys inside the car, Su Jian’an rolled down the window and waved at the people outside the car. “Goodbye.”

Mumu replied politely, “Goodbye, Uncle and Auntie.”

Lu Boyan looked out of the window and happened to glance into Mumu’s eyes.

Different from Kang Ruicheng who was gloomy and malicious, this child had very pure eyes.

In the end, Lu Boyan nodded at the little boy and then asked Uncle Qian to drive.

Mumu watched the car driving farther and farther ahead and did not look away for a long time.

“What are you looking at?” Xu Youning held Mumu’s hand. “We’re going back too.”

Mumu followed Xu Youning and asked, “Is that gentleman the father of the babies?”

“Yeah.” Xu Youning was curious. “What’s the matter?”

Mumu stuck out his tongue and said, “I think he is too serious.”

“…” Xu Youning touched Mumu’s head and said, “That gentleman is an adult. He has a lot of things to consider, so he is serious. He is not against you.”

“I got it!” Mumu held Xu Youning’s hand and hopped toward the parking lot.

As soon as they arrived at the villa, Aunt Zhou immediately came over and asked, “How is Mumu’s hand?”

“It’s just a minor sprain. It’s okay.” Xu Youning asked Aunt Zhou to rest assured. “As long as we change the dressing on time, it will be better in a few days.”

“Good.” Aunt Zhou took Mumu’s hand with concern and asked, “Little guy, still hurts?”

Mumu shook his hand and said, “The nurse helped me apply the medicine. It doesn’t hurt anymore!”

Aunt Zhou blew on Mumu’s wound. “I’ll make bone soup later. You need a nutritional supplement so that the wound would heal faster!”

“Hehe!” Mumu nodded hard. “Okay!”

After dinner, while Aunt Zhou was helping Mumu change the dressing, Mu Sijue’s mobile phone on the tea table suddenly rang. He answered the phone and frowned upon hearing something, and asked in a low voice, “Are they Kang Ruicheng’s people?”

“Yes,” said his subordinate. “Seventh Brother, we may need you to come here.”

“I’ll be there right away.”

Mu Sijue hung up the phone and put on the coat handed over by Aunt Zhou. He glanced at Mumu and told Xu Youning, “Watch this little guy.”

He took big strides and left the villa in the blink of an eye.

Mumu looked at Xu Youning and said, “Auntie Youning, I heard Mr. Mu say Daddy’s name…”

Xu Youning did not know what had happened, but according to Mu Sijue’s tone, the matter should be very serious.

She held Mumu in her arms. “It’s okay. Don’t be afraid.”

Mumu nodded, but still looked out uneasily.

Thinking of something, Xu Youning called Aunt Zhou and said, “Aunt Zhou, I want to borrow your mobile phone.”

She also had a mobile phone but considering Mu Sijue’s setting, she could not call Kang Ruicheng with it.

Aunt Zhou took out her mobile phone from her pocket and handed it to Xu Youning.

Xu Youning unlocked the phone screen and asked Mumu, “Do you remember your daddy’s number?”

Mumu nodded. “Yes.”

Xu Youning handed the phone to Mumu. “Call your daddy.”

Mumu replied with an “oh” and quickly dialed Kang Ruicheng’s number.

The phone was quickly answered, and Kang Ruicheng’s unfriendly voice sounded. “Who is it?”

Mumu said timidly, “Daddy, it’s me.”

“Mumu?” Kang Ruicheng’s voice suddenly became nervous. “Did Mu Sijue do anything harmful to you? Are you hurt?”

“No.” Mumu didn’t understand at all. “Daddy, why do you ask that? Mr. Mu even played games with me.”

“Mumu, don’t trust him.” Kang Ruicheng warned. “He is my enemy. He can’t be good to you.”

“But…”

Mumu really wanted to defend Mu Sijue.

Although Mu Sijue wanted to take Auntie Youning away from him, he didn’t want his father to misunderstand that Mr. Mu was a bad guy because Mr. Mu was really not.

Kang Ruicheng didn’t want to hear Mumu talk about that at all, so he interrupted and asked, “Where are you?”

“We…” Just as Mumu was about to say that they were on the mountain, he saw Xu Youning make an eye gesture and ask him not to say it. He naturally continued, “Well, I don’t know where we are.”

“It doesn’t matter.” Kang Ruicheng said, “I will find you and bring you and Auntie Youning back.”

Mumu plucked up his courage and said, “I want to stay here a little longer…”

“No!” Kang Ruicheng firmly refused Mumu. “I don’t have time to talk to you now. Wait for me to bring you and Auntie Youning back.”

Mumu still wanted to say something else, but the call was over. He returned the phone to Xu Youning and said, “Daddy hung up.”

“It’s okay.” Xu Youning touched Mumu’s head. “It’s enough to let your daddy know that you’re safe now. You should go to bed. Let’s go back to your room, okay?”

Mumu nodded obediently and followed Xu Youning upstairs. After taking a shower, he lay down on the bed.

Xu Youning tucked him in and said, “Sleep. I’ll stay here with you until you fall asleep.”

Mumu closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.

Xu Youning quietly left his room and wanted to call Mu Sijue. She entered his number but finally didn’t make the call.

She didn’t know what trouble Kang Ruicheng had made for Mu Sijue, but since Mu Sijue hadn’t come back yet, he should still be dealing with the problem. She’d better not bother him now.

The only thing she could do for Mu Sijue was to let Kang Ruicheng know that Mumu was very safe here and that Mu Sijue would not hurt a child.

Xu Youning went back to her room and lay on the bed, but she could not fall asleep at all.

She was worried about Mu Sijue, or in other words, she was waiting for him to come back, just like a wife waiting for her husband to come back late from work.

Speaking of husband and wife, she suddenly remembered that Mu Sijue had told her about their marriage after lunch today.

After she decided to follow Kang Ruicheng, she was no longer hopeful about marriage and the so-called “simple and fulfilling life”. She was even ready to die at any time.

It turned out that it was very useful for her to be ready in advance. She did not know how much time she had left.

Such people as her and Mu Sijue could never live a peaceful, warm and ordinary life.

If they wanted to achieve simple happiness, they often had to pay a higher price than ordinary people.

She did not know what would happen tomorrow, nor did she know if she could pay the price…
