Mu Chen's voice became heavier, "Since she's sick, let's have a good rest. Don't worry about Mu Ya, I will take good care of her." Even though he said that, he still bent down and placed the phone close to Mu Ya's ear, and gently said: "Mu Ya, it's mother's call."
"Mu Ya."
Zhang Xiao gently called Mu Ya's name from the phone. When the crying Mu Ya heard Zhang Xiao's voice, he became even more upset, and her soft voice carried a crying tone along with a sense of grievance, his little hands trying to take the phone from Mu Chen. Mu Chen did not let go, nor did she let go. Mom..."Mom ..."
The child's cry was like a needle piercing Zhang Xiao's heart, causing it to hurt so much that she hurriedly tried to coax her.
"I want my mother ..."
"Mu Ya, don't cry. Be obedient, don't cry anymore, Daddy will send you here to find Mommy. If you cry, Daddy will not send you here to find Mommy when Daddy is angry."
She didn't know if Mu Ya understood, but she started to sob from crying slowly. Every now and then, she would call out her mother in a wronged and soft voice, making Zhang Xiao's heart beat erratically. She really wanted to pull out the needle and drive her to Mu Family.
However, the moment she thought of Mu Chen's avoidance, she felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured over her head, freezing her from head to toe.
"Mu Ya, can you let me listen to the phone?" Zhang Xiao taught Mu Ya to give his phone back to him, although Mu Ya could not understand what she said, and upon hearing his mother mention her father, she loosened her grip on the phone, and looked up at Mu Chen with teary eyes.
Mu Chen stood up straight and placed the phone close to his ear once again. Zhang Xiao's words floated over: "Mr. Mou, please ask Aunt Lan to bring Mu Ya over now.
"Alright."
Mu Chen replied solemnly, "Then I'll hang up first."
Zhang Xiao did not say anything and took the initiative to end the call.
"What happened to Zhang Xiao?" Zhao Zi Ru casually asked.
Mu Chen picked up her daughter again, "She's sick." He then turned his head and ordered the Aunt Lan: "Aunt Lan, go and get Mu Ya some milk powder. Let him drink some milk powder first, I want to take her to find Zhang Xiao."
Zhang Xiao asked him to arrange for the Aunt Lan to send Mu Ya there, but he decided to send Mu Ya there herself.
She was sick, and he felt that he should go see her, should... Take care of her.
After a long conversation with his brother, although Mu Chen was still a little conflicted, he subconsciously walked forward. Zhang Xiao was a good woman, if he missed his, he might really regret it for the rest of his life. Zhang Xiao would also be an outstanding mother, so from the moment he changed out of his little flaws, he knew that she was very suitable to be Mu Ya's parent.
His brother had also said it before, what he should be conflicted about was not increasing the distance between him and Zhang Xiao, but thinking about how to make Zhang Xiao fall in love with him.
Let nature take its course.
Follow the feeling.
Mu Chen didn't want to beat himself up anymore and decided to face Zhang Xiao calmly. Whether or not he and Zhang Xiao would develop into lovers, he also didn't want to stop them.
However ... He felt that the first thing he should do was to drive away all of the berserk butterflies by Zhang Xiao's side!
After thinking about it, Mu Chen suddenly felt much more relaxed.
Before today, he was carrying a large stone on his back, as if he was suffering in hell. But now, his entire body was relaxed, as if he was in the clouds.
One thought of heaven, one thought of hell.
Whether the matter is good or bad is in fact your decisive attitude. If you think in a good way, that is a good thing. If you think in a bad way, that is a bad thing.
Half an hour later, Mu Chen drove himself out of the hospital to look for Zhang Xiao. Mu Ya sat on the child's seat, holding onto her milk bottle and drinking milk powder.
As Mu Chen drove, he paid attention to her daughter's movements through the car mirror. Seeing her daughter quietly drinking milk powder, he felt slightly relieved.
When the father and daughter duo met Ning Zhi Yuan's Porsche at the entrance of Royal Courtyard, they instinctively stopped and closed off the other party's exit.
Ning Zhi Yuan rolled down the window and asked Mu Chen who had also rolled down the window, "Where are you bringing Mu Ya?"
"Zhang Xiao is sick, I let her rest, but Mu Ya is crying so I can only bring Mu Ya to find her."
Ning Zhi Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked: "Are you seriously ill?"
"All she said was that she had a fever, and now there's a drop hanging in the hospital."
Ning Zhi Yuan did not ask anymore, and indicated for Mu Chen to go first.
Mu Chen was worried about Zhang Xiao, so she did not stay any longer. She started the car again and drove out of Royal Courtyard. Once he left, Ning Zhi Yuan took out her phone and called Lu Yong Chun.
The call connected for a long time before Lu Yong Chun answered, "Ning Zhi Yuan, do you have any morals? Do you know that disturbing people's dreams is immoral? You'd better give me a good reason, or I'll call you every morning and disturb your dreams."
Ning Zhi Yuan said coldly: "Zhang Xiao is sick, do you want to go to the hospital to visit her?"
Half of Lu Yong Chun's soul was still at Zhou Gong's place, but after hearing Ning Zhi Yuan's words, the other half of her soul finally floated back to his. It had only been a few days and she was already sick? He was still sick to the point of being hospitalized! Ning Zhi Yuan, tell me, did you bully her? "
Ning Zhi Yuan snappily replied: "You already said that Zhang Xiao is someone under your protection, how would I dare to touch someone under your protection again?"
Zhang Xiao was really capable, she could always make people who knew her believe in her and protect her.
Everyone thought that she was gentle and easy to bully. However, Ning Zhi Yuan knew that it wasn't easy to bully Zhang Xiao. She is a woman who will take revenge. If you provoke her, she will argue with you until all your hair falls off.
"Lu Yong Chun, do you want to go to the hospital to see her or not? If you don't want to go, I'll go myself. If you go, I can go to Kirin Manor and send you off once free of charge."
"I think I must still be dreaming, you actually want to go to the hospital to visit Zhang Xiao? The iceberg melted? Oh, that's right. The global greenhouse effect, the glaciers have all melted. First there was the flood and then there was the drought."
Ning Zhi Yuan slapped his face, "Then do you want to be affected by the floods or by the drought?"
"Ning Zhi Yuan, are you really going to see Zhang Xiao?"
Ning Zhi Yuan slapped his face again, he had actually thought that he was just spouting nonsense. Grinding his teeth, he asked in a low voice, "One sentence, do you want to go?"
"Alright, I'll give you a chance to be a free driver. Come and pick me up now. I'll sleep a bit more. Call me when you get there." Lu Yong Chun said, after hanging up, he fell back onto the bed and continued sleeping.
Ning Zhi Yuan muttered: "Still trying to fill in the sleep?"
If that was the case, wouldn't he have to wait for Lu Yong Chun when he reached the Lu Family?
So it was someone else waiting for him, but Lu Yong Chun told him to wait for her!
However ...
Wait.
His patience had to start from waiting for Lu Yong Chun.
