The origin of the name âWest Encounterâ is quite simple.
Back then, when Lu Bo Yan and Tang Yulan were being tracked down by Kang Ruicheng, they borrowed Su Jiananâs grandmotherâs house.
When Su Jiananâs grandmother was young, she was a famous celebrity in the city of A. She lived an elegant life and named her small house âWest Windowâ.
Lu Boyan and Su Jianan met in the house called âWest Windowâ.
Thatâs where the name West Encounter comes from.
In the end, Mu Sijiu eloquently summarized, âCalling it âWindow Encounterâ was too hard to hear, so Bo Yan took âWest Encounterâ.â
ââ¦â¦ âXu Yuning was speechless for a while, âYou mean, because âWindow Encounterâ is inappropriate, thatâs why West Encounter is called âWest Encounterâ?â
Musashi nodded, âYou could say the same thing.â
ââ¦â¦â
Xu Yuning silently thought that Xiyou would want to hit someone when he heard this when he grew up.
Mu Sijiu sat down, looked at Xu Yuning, and asked in a seemingly casual manner, âHow come you and Yun Yun talked about the name of Xiyou?â
Xu Yuning caressed her belly, a light smile on her lips, âBecause Yun Yun asked me if weâve helped name this little one?â
When she finished, she looked at Musashi if she had a point.
Of course Mu Sijiu understood what Xu Yuning meant.
He poked Xu Yuningâs forehead and shrugged it off, âA good name needs to come with the territory.â
The implication is that they donât have to rush.
Karma was there and they were able to help the little one get a good name naturally.
Xu Yuning looked at Mu Sijue with suspicion, âAre you sure youâre not looking for an excuse?â
âDo you think Iâm someone who will make excuses to escape?â Mu Sijiu changed the topic in a raw manner, âAre you hungry? Iâll ask someone to bring up dinner.â
Xu Yuning shook her head, âIâm not hungry yet, and besides, Jianan said that sheâd go home to help me prepare dinner and have Uncle Qian send it over later.â
âGood thing too.â Mu Sijiu said, âI still have a few points of paperwork to deal with, so Iâll go to the study for a bit.â
It was only when he entered the study that Musashi breathed a sigh of relief.
Itâs not for nothing that heâs delaying naming the baby.
The first is because he doesnât have a clue.
The name will be something that will stay with the child for the rest of his life, and the more he tries to give the child a good name, the more clueless he gets.
He had also secretly asked Lu Bo Yan in private, and Lu Bo Yan said the origin of the name Xiyou, and then only said two words, âLet it be.â
When facing Xu Yuning, he used Lu Bo Yanâs words to perfume Xu Yuning as usual.
The most important reason was because he was afraid.
He was afraid that in the end, all the child would leave in the world would be a name he didnât get to call.
If thatâs the case, then heâd rather have never named the child.
Mu Sijun didnât know how long he stayed in the study until he heard movement coming from the ward before he got up and left.
As soon as he pushed open the door of the study, a fragrance of rich chicken soup came to his nose, and Xu Yuning and Mina gathered around the meal on the dining table with an intoxicated look on their faces.
âGosh â¦â¦,â Mina took a hard, deep breath, âIâll take Jane-Annâs cooking over water!â
Xu Yuning knew nothing about cooking, but looking at the complex dishes and exquisite plating on the table, he nodded with deep empathy: âWithout a deep foundation, you really canât make a meal like this.â
Mina was dumbfounded, âI wonder if I start practicing my cooking skills now, can I reach Janeaneâs level in a few years?â
âItâs a bit hard â¦â¦ right?â Although Xu Yuning said this, his eyes always stayed on the rice, âI heard from Jianan that she started cooking in high school.â
âHigh school?â Mina felt surprised, âIsnât Jane-Ann the eldest Miss of the Su family? How come sheâs been cooking since high school?â
âHer mother died when she was still in her first year of high school, and not long after that, her father married her stepmother into the family, and at that time, when Brother Yicheng wasnât by her side, she hadnât suffered much, and learning how to cook, she should have been forced to do it.â Xu Yuning paused, smiled, and continued, âBut now, her face completely shows no traces of being treated poorly by life.â
âThatâs because she married love!â Mina said with certainty, âBeing married to a man as good as Mr. Lu can completely make up for all the injuries she suffered during her teenage years.â
ââ¦â¦ âXu Yuning thought about it and felt it made sense, so he nodded.
Mina thought of something and added, âThen again, Sevenâs a good guy too, and heâs a little out of my league!â
Xu Yuning was more interested in this topic.
She looked at Mina curiously, âWhat do you mean â¦â¦ Szell is so good itâs beyond your expectations?â
âYou also know what Sevenâs style used to be like, right?â Mina looked like she was scared just thinking about it and shuddered for a moment before continuing, âI didnât even dare to look directly into Seventh Brotherâs eyes before! It was only after I came over to protect you that I realized that Seventh Brother could also take the gentle route. Of course, this route is limited to you! For others, heâll do whatever he wants!â
Xu Yuning was mulling over Minaâs words when he heard a footstep from behind him.
She and Mina turned back in unison, and were caught off guard to see Musashi.
I canât believe Iâm speaking of the devil!
Mina was so scared that the hairs on her body almost stood up, and she gathered her face and called out with a straight face, âSeventh Brother!â Then said, âThat â¦â¦ If thereâs nothing else, Iâll go out first!â
After Mina slipped away, only Mu Sijun and Xu Yuning remained in the living room.
Xu Yuning looked at Mu Sijue idly, âYou heard it all, right?â
Mu Sijiu sat down opposite Xu Yuning and asked knowingly, âWhat did you hear?â
âThose words that Mina complimented you ah.â Su Jianan held her chin and looked seriously at Mu Sijun, âDonât you think that Mina was complimenting you?â
Mu Sijun snorted coldly, his voice cold and deep, âShe should be glad that sheâs complimenting me. Otherwise, she would have already been fired.â
âHey â¦â¦,â Xu Yuning looked incredulous, âYouâre not someone who canât stand criticism like that, right?â
Muji was uncooperative, âAll the time.â
ââ¦â¦ âXu Yuning was speechless for a while, and after a moment, asked with less certainty, âBut what would you do if someone criticized you?â
âItâs very simple,â Mousse said bluntly, âFire him.â
ââ¦â¦â Xu Yuning âcoughedâ, deliberately making things difficult for Mu Sijue, âSo⦠. what if I criticize you?â
âYou?â Mu Sijun raised his eyebrows in a cloudy manner, looking meaningfully at Xu Yuning, âThere are plenty of ways for me to clean you up.â
Xu Yuning shuddered just like Mina had just done, and decisively changed the topic, âLetâs eat, or the food should get cold!â
After dinner, Mushi Jue said that he had something to do, so he went back into the study.
Mina brought in fruits for Xu Yuning and felt strange, saying in disbelief, âSeventh Brother seems to be very busy lately â¦â¦â
âUh-huh.â Xu Yuning nodded, âYeah.â
But Mousse never said what he was busy with.
Xu Yuning could only silently guess that it was probably a company matter.
If it was a company matter that she didnât understand anyway, she simply didnât ask.
If it was something else, Mu Sijun shouldnât have told her, and it would have been futile for her to ask.
Just like that, after another day, Xu Yuningâs condition slowly improved.
On Monday morning, when Xu Yuning woke up, Mu Sijun was no longer in the room, she thought that Mu Sijun had gone to the company, but when she got up, she saw Mu Sijun walk in from the living room, still wearing casual home clothes.
Xu Yuning lifted the quilt and lazily looked at Mu Sijun: âArenât you going to the company?â
âNot going.â Musashi said faintly, âIâm in the hospital office.â
Xu Yuning got out of bed, walked over to Mu Sijun and looked at him, âIs it because of me?â
On Saturday afternoon, she suddenly fainted, and thanks to the fact that Mu Sijun was at the hospital, she was able to find out in time, and she received prompt medical attention.
That one time, it should have scared Musashi.
Mu Sijiu didnât want to give Xu Yuning any psychological burden and denied, âItâs not because of you, but I donât want to go.â
âYou donât need to hide it, I already know.â Xu Yuning tried to act like he was already fine, and lightly said, âWhen youâre not around, Mina will guard me every inch of the way, so you really donât need to worry about me, go and get busy with yourself!â
Mu Sijiu was not moved, nor did he take Xu Yuningâs words, and said, âBreakfast has been sent over, go out and eat.â
Xu Yuning looked helpless, âHey, are you listening to me?â
âHear that.â Mousse said in exasperation, âBut I wonât listen.â
Youning Hsu: ââ¦â¦â Whatâs the difference between that and not listening?
While eating breakfast, Xu Yuning had been wondering how to make Mu Sijun listen to her and obediently go to the company.
She was already fine, and it was such a waste of talent for Mu Sijun to guard her like this without moving an inch.
Xu Yuning didnât expect that things would be solved without her having to think of a way.
After breakfast, Mu Sijun answered the phone, and when he hung up, his brows had knitted deeply as he said, âIâm going to go to the company.â
Xu Yuning was happy to hear this, waving her hand at Mu Sijue: âGo on, Iâm fine with being alone!â
Mu Sijiu was really uneasy about Xu Yuning being alone in the hospital, looking towards Mina, before he had time to speak, Mina jumped ahead and said, âSeventh brother, I know what youâre going to say. You can rest assured to go and busy yourself, I will take care of Sister Yuning!â
Mu Sijun changed into a handsome formal dress, and instructed the bodyguard outside the door a few more times before leaving the hospital.
In the large living room, only Xu Yuning and Mina remained.
Mina âtskedâ twice and teased, âI canât believe it, is this still Seven?â
âHmm?â Xu Yuning looked at Mina in disbelief.
Mina pondered for a moment and said, âSeventh Brother used to be all thunder and lightning, where would he care so much? However, why do I feel that this humane and caring Seventh Brother is cuter than the cool Seventh Brother from before!â
Xu Yuning shook his head and said, âDonât ever let Sijun hear you describe him as âcuteâ.â
Mina almost choked on her toast, âWhy?â
âIf you use words like âcuteâ on him, he will only feel that you are simply criticizing him.â Xu Yuning said in a serious manner, âHe said that heâs a person who canât stand criticism, and if you criticize him, heâll fire you!â
