The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 133 I believe you

Chapter 133 I Believe in You

The thugs were impossible to get any information out of her, and continuing the conversation would only be a waste of time. So Mu Xiaoyu stopped talking and left the interrogation room.

Li Chenxu had been waiting for Mu Xiaoyu outside the door. When he saw her come out, he quickly walked over, took Mu Xiaoyu's hand, and asked, "How did it go? Did he tell you who it was?"

Mu Xiaoyu glanced at Li Chenxu, shook her head in disappointment, and told Li Chenxu everything the thug had said.

"If Xu Sulin really didn't do this, then who could it be? He said it was a man, but apart from Chen Hao, who is currently locked up in jail, I really can't think of anyone else."

Li Chenxu remained silent from the moment Mu Xiaoyu recounted what the thugs had said to him. Li Chenxu's expression changed slightly, whether he had thought of some clue or simply had no clues, his expression was now even more unpleasant than before.

He glanced down at Mu Xiaoyu, whose brows were furrowed, and after a long while, he said, "Let me investigate this matter. You take care of things at the magazine first. Didn't we say there would be a book signing after the awards ceremony? You should prepare for that first. There's no rush to investigate this matter."

"No, this matter must be resolved quickly. I have a feeling that the person behind this will not let it go so easily. If we don't find him, it will be even more troublesome if he causes trouble again at the book signing."

Mu Xiaoyu refused without hesitation; she knew all too well how busy Li Chenxu was. She wanted to handle this matter herself, and if she really couldn't manage it, she could always ask Li Chenxu for help later.

If it were before, Li Chenxu might have agreed to Mu Xiaoyu's request, but for some reason, he didn't this time.

He placed his hands on Mu Xiaoyu's shoulders, looked steadily at her, and said seriously, "Xiaoyu, I know you don't want to rely on me for everything. But this time, I have to do it... I know you must have doubts in your heart. After this is over, if the investigation is clear, I will tell you the whole truth."

Mu Xiaoyu rarely saw Li Chenxu looking so serious. Originally, she didn't think this was a big deal, but seeing Li Chenxu's expression now, it was clear that things were not as simple as she had thought.

Mu Xiaoyu was a smart person, and coupled with her trust in Li Chenxu, she held back her doubts in the end, even though she had a thousand questions in her mind.

She looked up at Li Chenxu, seeing the determination in his eyes, and then suddenly smiled. She reached out and gently smoothed the wrinkles between his brows, finally saying with a smile, "Alright, I understand. I won't get involved in this anymore. Don't make it so serious, like a little old man..."

At this point, Mu Xiaoyu paused, her gaze softening as she looked at Li Chenxu: "Chenxu, I'm not the same Mu Xiaoyu I used to be. I don't know why you're acting so strangely today, but I believe you. It's for my own good, so I won't ask or doubt you. And you don't need to know too much, okay?"

Mu Xiaoyu's cool fingertips brushed against Li Chenxu's brows and eyes; the soft, cool touch was almost indescribably beautiful. But more importantly, it was what Mu Xiaoyu said.

Previously, Mu Xiaoyu didn't like to go back to the Li family's main residence, and most of the time Li Chenxu would go back alone. Every time they went back, the people from the collateral branches of the Li family would say that Mu Xiaoyu was climbing the social ladder and turning from a sparrow into a phoenix.

But what they didn't know was just how outstanding Mu Xiaoyu was. She was never some sparrow, never an ugly duckling; she had always been the most dazzling and radiant presence...

Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu did not stay at the police station for long. They left some people behind to continue the investigation and also sent a small group to stake out the home of the gang leader.

Since the person behind this has said they want to return the old man, it should be within the next few days. No matter how small the chance, staking out the place will always give us a glimmer of hope...

No one expected what happened today. After a busy day, when Mu Xiaoyu got home, she felt completely exhausted. She was like a walking corpse, and no matter what she did, she was numb.

The two were eating at the moment, and seeing Mu Xiaoyu's somewhat dazed look, Li Chenxu felt sorry for her.

"After you finish eating, rest for a while and I'll call a masseuse to come to your house for a massage. You're too tired today, so take a good rest tomorrow and don't go out for now."

Moreover, given what happened today, even though he had bodyguards around Mu Xiaoyu, he still couldn't feel at ease; he couldn't bear to see her suffer even the slightest harm.

Mu Xiaoyu was indeed quite tired today. Her health wasn't particularly good to begin with, and today she was under a lot of physical and mental tension. As soon as she relaxed, her overall spirits were not very good.

Mu Xiaoyu didn't eat much for dinner and went upstairs. While eating, Li Chenxu had already arranged for a female masseuse to come. After Mu Xiaoyu finished digesting her food, the masseuse began to give her a massage.

This method is the most relaxing. After the female masseuse massaged her for a short while, Mu Xiaoyu felt much more comfortable. She didn't even know when she fell asleep.

The massage room was lit by warm yellow wall lamps, the walls were a matching pale yellow, and there was a faint fragrance of incense, making the whole massage room very relaxing.

When Li Chenxu came in after finishing his work, the first thing he saw was Mu Xiaoyu's upturned lips as she slept, which was enough to show how comfortable she was in her sleep.

Li Chenxu often sees Mu Xiaoyu so unguarded; he falls asleep looking at her almost every day. Even so, in Li Chenxu's eyes, Mu Xiaoyu remains fresh and new. He even thinks she gets prettier and cuter every day.

"You go out first."

Li Chenxu lowered his voice and spoke to the female technician. After she left, he walked quietly to Mu Xiaoyu's side.

He knew very well that Mu Xiaoyu used to be an extremely wary person. Especially when they were together, their relationship didn't resemble that of a married couple at all. Mu Xiaoyu only felt defensiveness and disgust towards him; some people might even believe they were enemies.

But I don't know when it started, Mu Xiaoyu changed. She began to trust him and depend on him. Whenever she looked at him with those bright eyes, it was as if the whole world consisted of only him in her eyes.

That wonderful feeling still fills Li Chenxu's heart with indescribable satisfaction whenever he thinks about it now.
