Chapter 303 Old Master Li's Visit
The more Mu Xiaoyu thought about it, the more upset she became, and she couldn't help but complain to God.
She even suspected that God couldn't bear to see her and Li Chenxu living a good life, so He was trying to find ways to make things difficult for them.
"Alright, stop thinking about these things. Anyway, things are moving in a positive direction now, so we should be happy, shouldn't we?"
Li Chenxu didn't want to see Mu Xiaoyu's gloomy face, so he placed his hands on Mu Xiaoyu's shoulders, creating some distance between them, and looked at Mu Xiaoyu gently with his dark but bright eyes.
Li Chenxu is becoming increasingly gentle when facing Mu Xiaoyu. He is gentle when he speaks normally, and even the way he looks at Mu Xiaoyu now is as gentle as a flowing stream, making people almost unable to resist being immersed in it.
Mu Xiaoyu stared at Li Chenxu with fascination, her mind filled with nothing but him. She gazed at him intently, almost unable to look away.
Li Chenxu was amused by Mu Xiaoyu's dazed look. He realized that Mu Xiaoyu was becoming more and more infatuated with him. She used to be so insensitive to looks, but now she would often be infatuated with him.
That feeling... was almost indescribably wonderful.
Immediately, the heaviness in Li Chenxu's heart eased considerably.
He said nothing more, letting Mu Xiaoyu look at him. As long as Mu Xiaoyu was happy, he was willing to let her look at him like this forever.
Because Li Chenxu told her about Mu Pengzheng, when Li Chenxu went to work the next day, Mu Xiaoyu thought about it and decided to go to the Li family's old house to talk to those people.
Unfortunately, before she even went to the Li family, Old Master Li actually came to her door.
This time, Grandpa Li seemed to have taken the wrong medicine or something else, because when he saw Mu Xiaoyu, he didn't act as sternly and glaringly as before, which made Mu Xiaoyu feel very uncomfortable.
"What are you looking at me for! Don't you even know how to call me Dad?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu was so shocked that her eyes almost popped out. She knew that Grandpa Li used to hate it when she called him "Dad," so it would be truly strange if Mu Xiaoyu didn't find it odd.
Even though she was terrified inside, Mu Xiaoyu maintained a calm demeanor on her face.
She thought for a moment, walked to the door, took the initiative to help Grandpa Li, and called him "Dad" in an extremely obedient manner.
It was obvious that Grandpa Li still didn't like Mu Xiaoyu, but this time, he still snorted and reluctantly responded to Mu Xiaoyu's call of "Dad".
"I'm here today because I have something very important to tell you. Don't act like you used to. Just listen to me properly, and I won't cause you any trouble."
Grandpa Li didn't want to waste any more words with Mu Xiaoyu. After sitting down on the sofa, he went straight to the point and spoke to Mu Xiaoyu directly.
Mu Xiaoyu showed no surprise upon hearing this, but merely raised an eyebrow at Old Master Li, already having some vague guesses in her mind.
She nodded, still looking at Grandpa Li with an extremely obedient expression, and said, "Dad, just say what you mean. You're not one of those other ill-mannered people, so why would I talk back to you? Don't you think so?"
Mu Xiaoyu can honestly guarantee that she said these words without any malice or overthinking; they just came out of her mouth.
However, the speaker meant no harm, but the listener took it to heart. Upon hearing Mu Xiaoyu's words, Old Master Li's eyes widened in anger, staring at Mu Xiaoyu as if he were about to punish her at any moment.
Seeing Grandpa Li's expression, Mu Xiaoyu knew he had misunderstood. She quickly covered her mouth and coughed lightly to cover it up: "Dad, didn't you have something to say? Judging from your expression, it must be something urgent, right? Please tell me quickly, don't delay things."
Grandpa Li did have something important to say this time. Although he was very angry, he still felt that the important matter was the priority. So in the end, he just glared at Mu Xiaoyu and didn't argue with her anymore.
"I know about Mu Pengzheng's matter. Shen Xu came to see me yesterday and told me everything."
Mu Xiaoyu nodded, showing no surprise whatsoever. Such a big matter wouldn't need Li Chenxu to hide it from the Li family, but now that Old Master Li had come to see her, she was a little confused.
After all, there are too many things involved now, and as someone without any status, she can't help Li Chenxu or the Li family at all.
She didn't say anything, but just quietly looked at Grandpa Li, waiting for him to say what he was going to say next.
However, Grandpa Li did not speak immediately. He looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a complicated expression, as if he was struggling with something.
When Mu Xiaoyu saw Grandpa Li's appearance, a bad premonition immediately washed over her.
She squinted at Old Master Li, and finally couldn't help but speak directly: "Dad, just say what you want to say. Since you chose to come when Brother Chenxu isn't here today, it means you don't want Brother Chenxu to know what you're about to say. You're already here, so even if you hesitated, you still said it in the end, didn't you?"
Mu Xiaoyu remained calm and did not press the issue; she simply stated the facts in a calm manner.
Grandpa Li remained silent, his shrewd eyes subtly scrutinizing Mu Xiaoyu.
Although Mu Xiaoyu has been married to Li Chenxu for several years, he has actually had very little contact with her. He only knows about her through other people's words and a few meetings.
Before this, he had always looked down on Mu Xiaoyu, her background, and everything about her, thinking she was not good enough for Li Chenxu.
But when I heard Mu Xiaoyu calmly say those words just now, that thought began to waver.
He felt that he probably knew too little about Mu Xiaoyu before.
Li Chenxu is his son, and he knows all too well how outstanding his own child is.
How could a woman who can win Li Chenxu's heart be anything less than excellent?
Thinking of this, Old Master Li's gaze towards Mu Xiaoyu changed slightly, but now was not the time to think about these things. He coughed lightly, and his gaze towards Mu Xiaoyu gradually became serious: "I don't know exactly what Shen Xu told you about that matter last night, but judging from your reaction now, it is obvious that you don't know that Mu Pengzheng did not tell you everything."
