Chapter 521: Stop Cooking
Knowing that Mu Xiaoyu had met with Grandpa Li, Li Chenxu managed to finish up his company business and rushed back immediately. As soon as he entered, he pulled Mu Xiaoyu around to check on her, and after confirming that she was alright, he frowned and asked, "Why did you go to see him? You're not allowed to see him again, no matter what."
In Li Chenxu's eyes, Old Master Li was far too cunning.
Whatever he wants to do or what his purpose is, it certainly won't be anything good.
Mu Xiaoyu is clever, but when it comes to human nature, she can't compare to someone like Grandpa Li.
Seeing Li Chenxu's overreaction, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but laugh. She hugged Li Chenxu and looked up at him.
Li Chenxu has always been very handsome. Some good-looking people have many flaws that are exposed when viewed from below, and they can't withstand close scrutiny. But Li Chenxu is completely different. From Mu Xiaoyu's angle looking up, Li Chenxu's sharp jawline can be clearly seen, giving him an even more mature and charming appeal than usual.
Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but reach out and touch Li Chenxu's jawline, but before she could touch him twice, Li Chenxu grabbed her hand: "Don't touch me like that."
Li Chenxu said in a deep voice, "Mu Xiaoyu's hands are very soft. He has always had good self-control, but when facing Mu Xiaoyu, he simply cannot control himself. If he keeps touching her like this, it is inevitable that things will go wrong."
At this point, there is something even more important to say.
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu withdrew her hand and said, "I don't know what your father is trying to do, but I think you should know about what happened today. He knelt down in front of so many people. Your father is definitely not that kind of person. I suspect he has another purpose. Oh, by the way, he also gave me a lot of properties under his name. I locked them in a safe. Please check if there are any problems."
Mu Xiaoyu also put away her playful expression and became serious when the conversation turned to business.
She took out the things that Grandpa Li had given her during the day and placed them in front of Li Chenxu. She was an expert in comics, but in many aspects of life, Mu Xiaoyu was practically a novice. So she didn't touch these things and left them all to Li Chenxu to handle.
Li Chenxu remained silent. He became much more cautious than usual whenever it involved Mu Xiaoyu. At this moment, he carefully examined each of the documents and property transfer certificates that Mu Xiaoyu had brought him.
Mu Xiaoyu sat next to Li Chenxu without disturbing him. While Li Chenxu looked at those things, she looked at Li Chenxu.
I don't know what's wrong with her lately, but she's become more and more fond of watching Li Chenxu.
I see him every day, but it seems like I can never get enough of him.
"There's nothing wrong with any of these things."
After an unknown amount of time, Li Chenxu finally finished reading them.
As he finished packing the documents and certificates, he saw Mu Xiaoyu staring at him intently, looking exactly like a lovesick little girl.
Li Chenxu couldn't help but laugh. He ruffled Mu Xiaoyu's soft hair and said with a smile, "What's wrong? Why have you been staring at me like that lately?"
"You're beautiful. Look at me, I never stare at other people."
Her lips were as sweet as honey, and Li Chenxu's smile deepened. Looking at Mu Xiaoyu's obedient and well-behaved demeanor, he felt extremely pleased.
However, thinking of Grandpa Li's matter, the smile on his lips faded slightly: "I don't know what my dad is planning, but you should avoid having any contact with him recently. I'm worried that he might be planning something that would harm you again."
Mu Xiaoyu nodded upon hearing this, then looked at the pile of documents and certificates on the table and asked, "What about these things? Should we give them back to him or keep them?"
“Keep it. Since he gave these to you, they are yours from now on. And it was done through legal procedures, so he can’t do anything shady here.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu immediately accepted the items without any qualms.
She would have to work herself to the bone for years to earn this much money, and now she's got it so easily—how could she possibly refuse it?
"what's for dinner?"
After Mu Xiaoyu put the things away, she asked Li Chenxu.
Li Chenxu had just taken off his coat and was about to change into something more comfortable when he heard Mu Xiaoyu's words. He smiled and looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a hint of teasing, saying, "Have you forgotten? You promised me before that you would be in charge of the cleanliness here and our food."
"But we've made up now, do I still have to do it?"
Mu Xiaoyu looked at Li Chenxu in surprise. Moreover, she hadn't seen her aunt today. Could it be that Li Chenxu really wanted her to take over her aunt's job?
Thinking about it this way, a look of grievance immediately appeared on Mu Xiaoyu's face.
She looked at Li Chenxu pitifully, even though Li Chenxu hadn't said anything yet, she was already acting aggrieved.
Li Chenxu chuckled. This Mu Xiaoyu is really getting better and better at acting cute.
He was somewhat helpless, but he also liked seeing Mu Xiaoyu like this, so he said, "I was just kidding. Auntie has some things to take care of at home recently, so I'll be cooking for the next couple of days."
"You cook? Won't that be too tiring?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu immediately beamed with joy; her little antics were quite amusing.
Li Chenxu didn't answer her. He took out the ingredients from the kitchen and said while washing them, "I'm not tired. Besides, if I really let you cook, we'd probably have to go out to eat again."
These words directly illustrate how bad Mu Xiaoyu's cooking skills are. Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but purse her lips. Her cooking skills were indeed not good, but compared to before, at least they were edible, right?
At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu felt a pang of tenderness as she thought of the meals she had been sending to Li Chenxu every day in the past few days.
She bumped into Li Chenxu once before, and although he knew she was the one delivering the food, she didn't ask him how he was eating.
Looking back now, Mu Xiaoyu felt like something was tickling her, and she wouldn't feel comfortable until she got an answer.
So Mu Xiaoyu stuck to Li Chenxu like a shadow, and asked eagerly, "What did you think of the meals I brought you before?"
Upon hearing this question, Li Chenxu immediately stopped what he was doing. He put the vegetables aside, wiped the water from his face and hands, and then looked at Mu Xiaoyu seriously, saying, "Xiaoyu, I have something very serious to tell you. From now on, no matter what happens, you must not cook anymore. If you want to eat something, just tell me, and I'll make it. Do you know how many times I got diarrhea after eating the food you brought me before?"
