âAuntie Yunin, are you leaving?â
In the last second, Xu Yuning was still teasing Mu Mu and having a good time.
The moment Mu Muâs question passed through her eardrums, she was completely unable to react and could only stare blankly at Mu Mu.
After freezing for a long time, Xu Yuning suddenly realized that it was her earlier sentence âI will tell Auntie Jiananâ that made the little one think that she was leaving.
How can she explain this â¦â¦?
Mu Mu looked at Xu Yuning, his childish face had an indescribable downturn, his ebony eyes seemed like they could overflow with tears at any time.
He knew that Xu Yuning would leave one day, and also knew that once Xu Yuning left this time, they might never be able to meet again.
So, the matter of Xu Yuningâs going away has always been a sensitive | topic in Mu Muâs heart.
However, even if the topic is sensitive, when it needs to be faced, it still needs to be faced.
Xu Yuning held Mu Muâs hand and looked at him with a soft gaze, âI mean, in a couple of days, I might meet Auntie Jianan.â
Mu blinked curiously, âWhy?â
âThe reception â did you know?â Xu Yuning patiently explained to the little one, âThereâs a man who organized a reception, and he invited not only your daddy, but also Uncle Lu. If your daddy and I attend together, we can meet Auntie Jianan at the reception.â
Xu Yuning tried to tell the little one that she wasnât leaving here to meet Su Jianan, she would just meet Su Jianan on some occasion.
But, once she goes, thereâs a good chance she wonât be coming back.
So, in one way, Mu s worries â¦â¦ are not entirely unnecessary.
What should she tell Mu Mu about this?
Xu Yuning didnât expect that Mu Mu was more sensitive than she knew.
Her explanation didnât settle Muâs mind-
Mu Mu looked at Xu Yuning, lowered his voice, and somewhat cautiously asked after her, âAuntie Yuning, will you still come back after seeing Uncle Lu and Auntie Jianan?â
ââ¦â¦â
In an instant, Xu Yuning was as if he had been struck by something in his soul, unable to say a single word.
Mu pursed the corners of her lips and asked herself, âAuntie Yuning, I want you to come back, but I also hope that you wonât come back.â
Xu Yuningâs eyes burned, and she could only raise the corners of her lips to hide the tears in the bottom of her eyes, and tried her best to ask in a normal tone of voice, âWhy?â
âI canât let you go!â Mu looked at Xu Yuning with a smile, but he still couldnât hide his low spirits, âBut youâll be safe if you leave here.â
In the final analysis, Mu Mu was still looking out for Xu Yuning.
Xu Yuningâs tearfulness, which he had managed to suppress, surged out again, and the tears almost came out of his eyes.
Muâs eyes were also covered in a layer of mist, and she looked like she was on the verge of crying as well.
Mu Mu, after all, was still young and couldnât control his emotions very well, plus Xu Yuningâs eyes were already foggy as well, he eventually couldnât control himself and said in a sobbing voice, âAuntie Yuning, youâd better go.â
He couldnât bear to part with it, but he knew very well in his heart that only by leaving here could Auntie Yuning be cured of her illness and the little baby in her belly be safe and sound.
Mu Mu, who was only five years old, overcame his emotions with reason and decided to let Xu Yuning go.
Xu Yuning reached out and embraced the little one into his arms, his voice trembling uncontrollably, âMu Mu, you â¦â¦â
She wanted to ask if Mu would like to go with her if she had the chance.
However, before she could finish her sentence, Mu shook her head.
Xu Yuning let go of Mu Mu and looked at him in confusion, âWhy?â
Mu blinked her eyes, calmly looking like an adult, with a reasonable look, âAuntie Yuning, I canât go with you because Iâm too slow to run, Iâll hold you back!â
âPfftâ¦â
Xu Yuning broke into tears all of a sudden.
She thought Mu Mu would give her a barred answer, and she didn t expect that the little guy s reason was actually so â¦â¦ real.
Seeing Xu Yuning laughing, Mu Mu laughed out along with her, then said in a serious manner, âAuntie Yuning, if I go away with you, daddy will be even more angry. In case you donât walk away, I will also be punished by daddy, so there will be no one to protect you.â
ââ¦â¦â
It was only then that Xu Yuning suddenly reacted to the fact that Mu Mu didnât not want to go, but had her own considerations. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The little one knew that the chances of her escape being successful were not great, and that there was a high probability that she would be recaptured by Kang Rui Cheng.
If he hadnât followed her along, he would have been able to protect her a bit with his tears when she was recaptured.
But if he was also captured and returned, if he was also to be punished by Conrad City, there would be no one to help her.
Sometimes, Xu Yuning couldnât help but wonder if Mu Mu was more than 5 years old.
If Mu was really just a 5 year old, how could he have thought things through so thoroughly?
Or is the kid a little genius?
Seeing Xu Yuningâs delayed response, Mu Mu reached out her hand and shook it in front of her eyes, âAuntie Yuning?!â
Xu Yuning barely came back to his senses and looked at the little one, âHuh?â
Mu didnât know when he had stopped crying, and his signature smile returned to his face, winking and grinning as he asked, âDo you want to take me out of here with you?â
Xu Yuning nodded without hesitation, âIf you are willing, of course I want to.â Although Mu Mu was Kang Ruichengâs son, she simply had no position to do so.
Mu Mu was happy to hear this answer and pursed her small red | lips and smiled, âAuntie Yuning, Iâm very happy, but Iâve still decided to stay.â
Xu Yuning thought for a moment and suddenly reacted to something, looking at Mu Mu not quite sure, he asked, âYouâre doing this for your daddy, right?â
ââ¦â¦ âMu did not expect to be guessed by Xu Yuning, unexpectedly cocked her head, and then nodded after a moment, âUh-huh.â
ââ¦â¦â Xu Yuning knew he had guessed, and his heart inexplicably softened.
Mu Mu explained seriously, âAuntie Yuning, after youâre gone, daddy will definitely be very upset and might even try to find a way to get you back. I want to stay with daddy and convince him to give you up, so youâll be completely safe!â
ââ¦â¦â
Xu Yuning clearly should have laughed, but tears came out first.
At this moment, she immensely wished that Mu Mu was not Kang Ruichengâs son, so that she could take him with her without hesitation.
âAuntie Yuning,â Mu gently hugged Xu Yuning, âYou have to be good from now on.â
Xu Yuning nodded with tears in her eyes, âI will.â
A big one and a small one, both of them crying with red eyes, not able to go downstairs at all.
Mu Mu thought about it and made what she thought was a good suggestion, âAuntie Yuning, letâs play a game!â
Xu Yuning wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes and nodded, âYes.â
The two worked seamlessly together in the world of the game and went on a killing spree that lasted until sundown, when they went downstairs as if nothing had happened.
Today, Kang Ruicheng didnât go out after he came back, and as soon as Xu Yuning came downstairs, she saw him sitting on the sofa in the living room, and Dongzi was there as well.
Dongzi knows that Kang Ruicheng and Xu Yuning have quarreled, and after thinking about it, he decides to start with Mu Mu to ease the relationship between Kang Ruicheng and Xu Yuning.
âMu Mu,â Dongzi called Mu Mu from a distance and asked, âHow was your day, did you have fun?â
âUh-huh.â Mu nodded absently, âIt was fun.â
Dongzi then asked, âSo did you tell Auntie Yunin?â
ââ¦â¦â Mu blinked her eyes, not quite understanding, âWhat am I going to tell Auntie Yuning oh?â
Dongzi was secretly anxious.
He couldnât figure it out, Mu Mu was usually such a smart kid, when it came to the critical moment, how come he couldnât understand his hints?
He wanted him to tell Xu Yuning â how much fun he had today, so he could clear Xu Yuningâs misunderstanding of Kang Ruicheng ah!
âMu Mu, you can tell Auntie Yuning â¦â¦â
Dongzi was unwilling to give up and tried to guide Mu Mu, but halfway through his words, Xu Yuning interrupted him with a voice: âIs dinner ready?â
âMmm!â Mu cooperated and touched her little stomach, âIâm so hungry.â
Dongzi could only put a hard brake on it and turned to say, âDinner is ready, just waiting for you guys to come downstairs and start.â
âOh-!â Mu cheered, pulling Xu Yuning towards the dining room, âLetâs eat!â
Xu Yuning and Mu Muâs silhouettes disappeared from the living room in an instant and darted toward the dining room.
Dongzi looked at Kang Ruicheng with a difficult face, âBrother Cheng, Miss Xu she â¦â¦â
Kang Ruicheng knew that Dongzi wanted to help him and raised his hand, âForget it.â
The conflict between him and Xu Yuning could not be solved by any outsider, only he could think of a solution himself.
Dongzi said helplessly, âThen â¦â¦ I will go back first.â
Kang Ruicheng âhmmâ, got up and walked towards the dining room.
Xu Yuning and Mu Mu were already preparing for dinner, and when they saw Kang Ruicheng, Mu Mu took the initiative to open his mouth to greet him, âDaddy!â
Xu Yuning right as if Kang Ruicheng did not exist, did not even look at him, and went ahead to give Mu Mu dishes, urging the little guy not to be picky about his food, and to eat more green vegetables.
Kang Ruicheng eventually couldnât stand it anymore, slapped down his chopsticks and warned, âAh Ning, there is a limit to my patience, what do you want?â
Xu Yuning pondered for a while and felt that at such a time, it would be better for her not to mess with Kang Ruicheng than to do so.
If she pissed off Kang Ruicheng, he would most likely not bring her to the reception the day after tomorrow.
If she couldnât leave the mansion, she had no chance of escaping it.
Xu Yuning sheng a bowl of soup and handed it to Kang Ruicheng: âMu Mu came back and already told me, he had a great time today.â
The implication was that she had no more misunderstandings about Kang Ruicheng.
Xu Yuningâs attitude changed three hundred and sixty degrees, and Kang Ruicheng reacted after a while, glancing at Mu Mu-
He thought that Mu Mu helped him explain to Xu Yuning.
Mu knew that Kang Ruicheng had misunderstood.
But what a wonderful misunderstanding.
He allowed this misunderstanding to happen!
Mu Mu didnât say anything and made a âVâ sign at Kang Ruicheng.
Kang Ruicheng laughed a little and took a sip of soup, his every move revealing great satisfaction.
He took Mu Mu out for a trip, and it really did work.
