Could she comfort him?What he needed was Ning Tong.
But when she saw his heartbroken look on his face, she finally embraced him, silently, without a word, just like the day he had arrived at the hospital, holding her in his arms. There was no need to say anything, just a hug was enough to make her feel at ease.
After an unknown period of time, Mu Chen"s emotions slowly calmed down.
He gently removed Zhang Xiao"s hand and stood up, pulling Zhang Xiao to stand up, staring at Zhang Xiao, in the next moment she forcefully pulled Zhang Xiao into his embrace, tightly hugging him, afraid that if she let go, Zhang Xiao would also leave him.
Tong Tong was gone, he could not lose Zhang Xiao again!
Zhang Xiao"s waist was in so much pain that she felt that her waist was going to be strangled by him. She was forced to bury her face in his chest.
She tried to struggle for a bit, but Mu Chen immediately held her tighter. She had no choice but to give up her struggle and quietly lay on his chest.
"Mom, Mom."
Mu Ya"s wails came from inside the guest room.
Mu Ya, who usually slept to the brightest, actually woke up at this time as if she had suddenly awakened from a bad dream. When she opened her eyes, she couldn"t see Zhang Xiao, and immediately cried out.
Zhang Xiao immediately struggled to push Mu Chen away, and ran back to her own room.
Mu Chen was startled for a moment, the emptiness in his arms made him extremely unhappy, but the cries of his daughter also caused him to be rational. After he regained his senses, he instinctively followed Zhang Xiao.
Who knew that Zhang Xiao would close the door after entering the room, and lock it from the inside, not allowing Mu Chen to enter.
Mu Chen tried to open the door a few times but only then did he know that Zhang Xiao had locked it.
He was like a deflated ball, angry and helpless.
At the same time, he was also worried that when he broke down, she would hug Zhang Xiao tightly. With Zhang Xiao"s intelligence, she would understand why he liked her. She locked the door so that he couldn"t go in to see her daughter, and that was to escape, to escape from him!
Mu Chen was a little upset, upset that he could not control himself.
But he was really afraid, afraid that Zhang Xiao would also leave him like Tong Tong.
It was enough to hurt once. He didn"t want to taste it again.
Zhang Xiao was a little confused. She had just witnessed Mu Chen"s longing for him, saw him cry in his dreams, and then be embraced by him. Although he did not say anything, she could feel his feelings for her.
She felt guilty.
He felt that he had stolen Little Big Sister"s husband.
Ye Qing had not woken up yet, she was worried all the time, and when she felt Mu Chen"s feelings, it made her even more confused. After coaxing Mu Ya back to sleep, Zhang Xiao was no longer able to sleep. She laid beside Mu Ya, looked at the little girl sleeping soundly, and opened her eyes until daybreak.
Zhang Xiao didn"t sleep at all during the second half of the night, and it was the same for Mu Chen.
Normally, Zhang Xiao would wake up at daybreak and go downstairs to personally help Mu Ya cook the bone porridge. However, she didn"t make a move today, even when it was late in the morning she still hadn"t walked out of her room.
Aunt Lan and the others habitually wanted to look for Mu Ya, but when they realised that Mu Ya was not in children"s room, she nervously searched around her room. When she did not find Mu Ya, she guessed that Mu Ya might be following her.
Zhang Xiao did not reply her immediately. She was a little anxious, so she turned the doork.n.o.b on her own and found that the door was locked from the inside.
"Miss Zhang, is Young Miss in your room?"
Aunt Lan patted on the door worriedly. Zhang Xiao still did not reply. Aunt Lan became even more worried, and planned to find a key to open the door, but when she turned around, she was shocked to find Mu Chen standing behind her. But very quickly, her attention was drawn to Mu Chen"s emaciation.
Mu Chen had black circles under his eyes and could clearly see the bloodshot lines in his eyes. His expression was ugly, and stubble emerged from his chin.
"Third Young Master?" Aunt Lan cried out in heartache, "Third Young Master"s face is extremely ugly. Last night … "I didn"t get a good rest." Aunt Lan spoke with some hesitation. She knew that Mu Chen had broken down last night.
"Aunt Lan, please make me a cup of coffee." Mu Chen pursed his lips, and spat out a sentence. I think I"ll help Zhang Xiao cook a cup too. " She probably couldn"t sleep well either.
The Aunt Lan nodded and looked worriedly at Mu Chen"s expression once again. In the end, he didn"t say anything and went downstairs to make coffee for Mu Chen.
Mu Chen was going back to the company today. He didn"t have a good rest last night, he wouldn"t be in a good mood if he didn"t drink coffee.
After the Aunt Lan had left, he stood in front of Zhang Xiao"s room and took a deep breath. Then, she raised her hand and knocked on the door and called out: "Zhang Xiao, open the door."
There was no movement in the room.
Mu Chen knocked again.
There was still no sound from the room.
The third time he knocked on the door, it opened and Zhang Xiao stood in front of him with Mu Ya in her arms.
"Good morning, Mr. Mou."
Zhang Xiao greeted Mu Chen politely.
Mu Ya, who was being carried by her, also sweetly called out. "Good morning, Daddy."
Mu Chen looked at the two women in front of him with a slight change in expression. Although Zhang Xiao"s face was ugly and had dark circles under her eyes, her expression was very normal. Even the way she looked at him was completely normal.
"Mr. Mou, can you move aside a little? You have blocked my and Mu Ya"s way." Zhang Xiao asked with a smile. Her smile was still as gentle as it always was, with a little bit of naughtiness within that gentleness that captivated the soul.
Mu Chen thought that the first thing he was intoxicated with was her smile.
Looking at her deeply, Mu Chen moved his feet.
Zhang Xiao then carried Mu Ya and walked past him. However, when she was wiping her body, she reminded him, "Mr. Mou should go back to her room and shave.
Mu Chen:...
Zhang Xiao carried Mu Ya and left.
Watching the charming figure go downstairs, Mu Chen lifted his hand to feel his chin, and felt his hand on his hand.
Well, she liked to see him younger, so he went back to his room and shaved.
However, Zhang Xiao"s calmness caused him to go crazy.
Fortunately, Zhang Xiao didn"t avoid him like she did last night. Otherwise, he would be even more mad.
"Zhang Xiao, Zhang Xiao, my beauty. I"ve come to see you." Zhao Wan Ting"s call came from downstairs. Mu Chen, who was planning to go back to his room to shave, suddenly stopped and turned to walk down the stairs.
d.a.m.n Zhao Wan Ting, he comes here early in the morning.
Mu Chen regretted not finding time to buy a few mastiffs yesterday.
As if he had thought of something, Mu Chen stopped and took out his phone to make a call.
Zhao Zi Ru was stunned when she received her youngest son"s call. The mother and son pair might not be living under the same roof, but they lived in the same Mu Family Mansion.
