Seeing this, Mu Xiaoyu's heart sank even further.
In this situation, she was isolated and helpless, and there was nothing she could do until she figured out what Grandpa Li was going to do next.
Mu Xiaoyu remained trapped in Li Chenxu's bedroom until it was almost dinner time when Old Master Li had someone bring her out.
"How have you thought about the children's matter?"
"If I agree, what will you do?"
Even now, Mu Xiaoyu still doesn't know one thing: what is the meaning behind Grandpa Li's actions? As long as Grandpa Li still wants a child, she and Li Chenxu will definitely meet again.
As soon as she meets Li Chenxu, Old Master Li's plan will definitely be exposed.
She refused to believe that Old Master Li didn't understand such a simple principle.
As if guessing what Mu Xiaoyu was thinking, Old Master Li's gaze towards Mu Xiaoyu suddenly became somewhat meaningful.
He snorted and, without even glancing at Mu Xiaoyu, said directly, "You don't need to worry about that. Since I asked you to do this, I have a way to keep Chen Xu from finding out."
"Okay, I promise you."
Despite Mu Xiaoyu's quick agreement, Old Master Li did not show any joy on his face. He looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a half-smile and said, "Mu Xiaoyu, I know what you're thinking. Are you planning to find an opportunity to meet with Shen Xu and tell him everything I told you today?"
Mu Xiaoyu didn't speak. At first, that was indeed what she thought, but then she realized that Old Master Li must have thought of the same thing. He would definitely use her weakness to blackmail her into not telling Li Chenxu the truth.
For Mu Xiaoyu now, there isn't much that can be used to blackmail her, but her mother alone is enough.
Therefore, before she is absolutely certain, Mu Xiaoyu cannot tell Li Chenxu directly.
Seeing that Mu Xiaoyu didn't speak, Grandpa Li took it as her consent.
"Mu Xiaoyu, I'll only say this once. Your mother is in such a state right now. If you don't listen to her, it's hard to say whether she'll even survive. And it won't just be you; it will also affect your close friends and your marriage with Shen Xu. You need to think carefully before you tell her or not."
it is as expected!
Mu Xiaoyu was burning with rage. Her hands were clenched into fists at her sides, and she looked at Old Master Li with eyes that seemed to want to tear him to pieces.
She remembered everything that Old Master Li had done to her today! She didn't care if he was Li Chenxu's father or not, especially since this father hadn't considered Li Chenxu's safety at all. One day, she would get her revenge on Old Master Li for everything that had happened today!
"Alright, Chen Xu will be back soon. Girl, I've said what I needed to say. What you do is up to you."
After giving Mu Xiaoyu a meaningful look, Grandpa Li didn't say anything more.
Mu Xiaoyu sat down on the sofa, her mind a jumbled mess. Now that she had agreed to the child with Grandpa Li, it meant she would have a chance to meet Li Chenxu. But how could she let Li Chenxu know this without Grandpa Li suspecting that she was the one who told him?
This matter seems simple, but it's actually far from easy. Once Li Chenxu finds out about Lei Chao, Old Master Li will definitely suspect her, and those around her will also be harmed…
"What are you thinking about? I've called you several times and you haven't heard me."
Mu Xiaoyu was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't notice when Li Chenxu returned until she heard his somewhat helpless voice, which snapped her back to reality.
It was unclear when, but Li Chenxu had returned, and had obviously been back for some time. He had taken off his coat and was looking at Mu Xiaoyu with a thoughtful expression.
Mu Xiaoyu didn't dare let Li Chenxu see anything yet. Seeing his gaze, she quickly turned her head away and muttered softly, "Why are you looking at me like that? Why did you come over again?"
"If you're here, where else am I supposed to go? I haven't even asked you yet, didn't you say you were going back this afternoon? Why are you still here? Did my dad... bully you?"
Li Chenxu's voice was gentle, yet earnest. Normally, Mu Xiaoyu would have told Li Chenxu everything at once.
But now, she can't.
Perhaps she's been spoiled too much by Li Chenxu, because even something as trivial as this made Mu Xiaoyu feel so wronged that she almost cried.
My eyes are sore and swollen right now, and I feel like tears are about to fall out at any moment.
She couldn't help but tug at Li Chenxu's sleeve, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm thinking of going back. Don't tell Dad that I was the one who said it."
Mu Xiaoyu's voice was very soft. She really didn't know what to do, but one thing was very clear: she absolutely could not stay with the Li family now.
Li Chenxu didn't ask Mu Xiaoyu why. Hearing this, he lowered his head and kissed Mu Xiaoyu's lips: "Okay, I'll go upstairs now and tell my dad if we're staying here for dinner tonight."
"No, I just want to go back."
"Okay, I'll take you back right away."
After saying that, Li Chenxu gently ruffled Mu Xiaoyu's hair, and then went upstairs to find Grandpa Li.
No one knew what Li Chenxu had said to Old Master Li, but in the end, only Li Chenxu came down. He walked to Mu Xiaoyu's side, helped her up, and then said, "Let's go, let's go back."
"He didn't say anything?"
"If we go home, what can my dad say? Xiaoyu, tell me the truth, are you hiding something from me?"
Li Chenxu was an extremely intelligent person, and he knew Mu Xiaoyu so well. No matter how well Mu Xiaoyu concealed it, at this moment, Li Chenxu still noticed that something was wrong with Mu Xiaoyu.
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu nodded hurriedly, refusing to say a word, and pulled Li Chenxu out.
She knew that if she didn't tell, Li Chenxu would definitely not force her.
However, Li Chenxu would find out in other ways.
Therefore, Mu Xiaoyu was not flustered at this moment.
More than half an hour later, the two returned to the villa. Mu Xiaoyu had been in a tense state all day at the Li family's old house, and now that she was home, the feeling of exhaustion washed over her like a tidal wave.
She lay on the sofa without moving, looked at Li Chenxu and whispered, "Brother Chenxu, I'm going to sleep for a while. Don't wake me up when it's time to eat. We'll eat when I wake up."
