As soon as Ouyang Manqing finished speaking, Mu Nianxue asked eagerly, with a nervous expression, "Manman, did something happen? Brother, did he bully you again?"
"I..." The words came to his lips, but Ouyang Manqing didn't know how to say it. Should he tell her what happened between him and Mu Niancheng recently?
However, although their relationship is good, Xuexue is obviously biased towards her brother!
In the past, she would have told Mu Nianxue everything without hesitation. However, after going through so many things, she has learned to be worldly, know how to protect herself, and know what to say.
What not to say...
Now, if she tells Xuexue her plan, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not tell Mu Niancheng! If Mu Niancheng finds out, she will never get rid of him!
That's not what she wants!
"Manman..."
The urgent call brought back her thoughts. She raised her head and met Mu Nianxue's eager eyes.
"No...I, I just don't know how to face him..." After a few seconds of silence, Ouyang Manqing just said this, with a touch of helplessness in his eyes.
It's not that she's suspicious or that she's too cautious.
After so much, the only ones she believed in were herself and Ouyang Chen!
Ask her to tell the Mu family about her plan, but she can't do it!
For the future of herself and her children, she must be absolutely cautious.
Mu Nianxue glanced at her suspiciously. Although Ouyang Manqing hid her emotions very well, she still keenly felt that Ouyang Manqing was different from before. She felt that she could not figure out Ouyang Manqing's emotions now.
In my mind, there seemed to be a high wall between them.
Ouyang Manqing's heart was tightly wrapped by a plant full of thorns. She refused to let herself get close to others, and also resisted others getting close to her. She locked herself tightly in a world of only her own, refusing to
Anyone's closeness.
"Manman, do you really not like my brother at all?" Mu Nianxue's tone contained a hint of helplessness. Could it be that my brother and Manman really can't go back to the past?
"It doesn't matter whether you like him or not..." Taking a deep breath, Ouyang Manqing said solemnly, "What matters is that he and I will never be together again!"
"Why?" Mu Nianxue was a little excited and even stood up from the bed, "You used to like your brother so much..."
How can it be that such a deep relationship is gone if it doesn’t exist? Doesn’t Manman miss it at all?
"Just because I liked it before doesn't mean I like it now! People's preferences will change..." People's hearts will also die, and then they will no longer have love...
"Manman, do you like someone else?"
"Xuexue, you still don't understand what I mean. Some people will never come back if they miss it!" Ouyang Manqing said lightly, but there was a touch of sadness in his tone.
"I don't understand why you and your brother refuse to agree to reconcile even though you love each other..." Mu Nianxue's tone had a hint of anger, as if he was blaming her.
Ouyang Manqing pulled her lips and smiled helplessly.
Even if he really likes her, so what? After experiencing such disasters, how can she still have the face to be with him again? How can she be with him again?!
They only saw his so-called pain, but never thought of the hurt she experienced!
This kind of love, this kind of matching, is a little too selfish...
Suddenly, Ouyang Manqing felt an inexplicable rejection of the Mu family, and felt strangely resistant to their behavior. Even Mu Nianxue, who had been very close to her since she was a child, was the same.
"Manman..."
"Xuexue, aren't you sleepy? Go get some sleep and I won't disturb you anymore!"
"Manman..." Mu Nianxue called her name helplessly, but she had already walked out of the room, leaving only a slight sound of the door closing.
Looking helplessly at the door, Mu Nianxue sighed quietly.
Mu Niancheng, there is nothing I can do to help you. Everything depends on your own efforts!
As she thought about it, drowsiness suddenly hit her again, and several yawns followed one after another. Blinking the slight tears caused by the yawns in her eyes, she opened the quilt and got into bed.
Sure enough, my bed is more comfortable...
There was a faint smile on her lips, and soon she fell into a deep sleep.
That night, at the strong invitation of the Mu family, and because of his strong desire to get closer to his son, Ouyang Manqing did not go back, but stayed at the Mu family manor.
After the simple but warm dinner, Mu Niancheng arranged for people to prepare the guest room.
"Mu Niancheng, why did you arrange the guest room? Haven't the long rooms always been there..." I don't know if Mu Nianxue is really slow or pretending to be naive, but she didn't even notice Mu Lengrui winking at her. .
"Xuexue, are you full?" Mu Niancheng glanced at her angrily. She still held a half-bitten apple in her hand.
"What are you doing? I just ate..." She mumbled dissatisfiedly.
"If you have nothing to do, just help clean up the guest room!" Mu Niancheng's voice had a hint of darkness.
"Daddy, you don't actually have to clean up the guest room... Mommy and I can sleep in the same room..." Ouyang Chen spoke at the right time, which not only solved the embarrassment, but also relieved Mu Nianxue.
"Chenchen, the bed in your room is a single bed. If two people sleep there, it will be very crowded..." It was Mu Nianxue who spoke again.
"Yes, Chenchen. Mommy has to go to work tomorrow, so she should have a good rest at night..." Mu Lengrui picked him up and said dotingly.
"But, but, I just want to sleep with Mommy... I haven't been with Mommy for a long time, woo woo... Grandpa, you are a bad guy, you don't let me sleep with mommy, woo woo Ugh..." As he spoke, there were tears in his eyes.
Maybe it's because Ouyang Chen is the first child of the Mu family, or maybe it's because he feels sorry for Ouyang Manqing in his heart. Everyone's attitude towards Ouyang Chen is extremely doting!
His status in the Mu family can be called the "little emperor". Mu Lengrui and Dai Yuxiao loved him so much that they held him in their mouths for fear of melting and held him in their hands for fear of falling.
His crying would literally kill the middle-aged and elderly couple.
"Okay, okay, Chenchen can sleep with whoever he wants. It all depends on you!" Dai Yuxiao said.
Dai Yuxiao's overly doting and submissive behavior made Ouyang Manqing frown in displeasure. When did his son develop such a cunning character?!
"Ouyang Chen, apologize to grandpa!" Ouyang Manqing spoke in a low voice, with a hint of anger in his tone.
Ouyang Chen pursed his lips and said nothing. He just glanced at Mu Lengrui innocently, then looked at Ouyang Manqing.
"Mommy..." He said timidly, with a hint of fear in his voice.
"Apologise to grandpa, what did mommy tell you? You have to be polite to others. How can you say grandpa is a bad guy? Apologize quickly!" This is the education method that Ouyang Manqing has always respected. You should be polite to your elders.
.
"Mommy..." Ouyang Chen flattened his mouth and pulled the hem of her clothes, looking shy and trying to please her.
"Apologise!" Ouyang Manqing's voice was very serious, and his posture revealed a little bit of dignity, which shocked people.
"Daddy..."
After trying to be cute to Ouyang Manqing to no avail, he turned his target to Mu Niancheng. Daddy and Mummy are about to remarry, Mummy should listen to Daddy, right?!
Mu Niancheng just raised his eyebrows lazily, glanced at him lightly, and said coldly, "Your mother is right. If you do something wrong, you should apologize. No matter whether others accept it or not, you should apologize to them.
Apologize!"
"Grandpa, grandma..." Ouyang Chen jumped into the two people's words, his mouth was flat, and he was almost crying.
"Manman, Chenchen is still a child, so there is no need to..." Dai Yuxiao said with great distress as she held the little guy tightly in her arms.
"Auntie, just because he is a child, you should tell him right from wrong! Otherwise, when he gets there, he will become a person who only avoids responsibilities and difficulties."
Ouyang Manqing said word for word, her tone was serious and serious, and there was not even a trace of expression change on her face.
Dai Yuxiao was speechless for a moment. She glanced at her husband and didn't know how to continue speaking.
Compared with her arrogance, Mu Lengrui is more suitable for Ouyang Manqing's seriousness and seriousness. She is a rare and good mother who can teach her children in this way.
"Chenchen, what mommy said is right. A man should be brave enough to act. If you are wrong, you are wrong. There is nothing to be embarrassed to admit! As long as you say 'I'm sorry' to grandpa, grandpa will still like you as before!"
Mu Lengrui said with a slight smile. Although his tone was gentle, it was more majestic.
Ouyang Chen glanced at all the adults for a long time before he slowly said, "Grandpa, I'm sorry!"
"Well, you're so good. Grandpa accepts your apology! Don't you want to sleep with Mommy? Why don't you take Mommy back to the room to rest quickly? Mommy has to go to work tomorrow morning and needs to rest early!"
"Mommy, Mommy, you and Chenchen should go back to the room and go to bed together..."
Ouyang Manqing hesitated. After all, this was no longer his home. It would be too abrupt and impolite to leave like this without his elders!
"Go!" Mu Lengrui smiled lovingly, with a hint of tolerance on his face.
After a slight nod and a few simple greetings, Ouyang Manqing held his hand and walked upstairs.
However, just after the two of them stepped onto the first step of the stairs, Ouyang Chen let go of her hand and ran to Mu Niancheng beside him, muttering.
