Chapter 544: Chapter 542 When Did We First Meet_1

After giving instructions to the servants, Mu Yingchen and Su Wanxia also headed towards the second floor. The bedrooms of Mu Zisu and Mu Yingchen were at opposite ends—one on the left and the other on the right.

"Achen, what should we tell Yaoyao later..." Su Wanxia looked towards the direction of Mu Zisu’s bedroom, hesitating.

"Let’s wait until he gets better..." For Mu Yingchen, it seemed that no matter how the issue was resolved, the outcome was already sealed.

After Mu Zisu pulled Na Xiaoxiao back into the room, he pushed her up against the wall in one swift motion.

"Xiaoxiao, you owe me an explanation..." He had clearly agreed to wait for his return, but when he came back, she was nowhere to be found, and he had to wait for her for so long!

Na Xiaoxiao looked at the handsome face close to hers and couldn’t help but reach out slowly, gently tracing her fingers from his arrogantly furrowed brows, as if she wanted to engrave his features deeply into her heart.

The anger in Mu Zisu dissipated with her touch, and his tone softened: "Why are you only back now..." Didn’t she know that he had been waiting for her every day?

"My parents wanted me to stay at home for a few more days, so I came back late..." Na Xiaoxiao said naturally, her voice calm.

Mu Zisu believed her without question because he couldn’t think of a reason for her to lie to him.

"What about your phone? Why couldn’t I ever reach you..."

"Didn’t I tell you? Our hometown is very remote, the signal is bad..."

Finding peace in her words, Mu Zisu’s expression finally relaxed, "Did you miss me..." His voice was magnetic and husky, causing Na Xiaoxiao’s heart to skip a beat.

Her cheeks flushed with a shy nod.

Mu Zisu’s heart was racing, and he leaned in to kiss her, but Na Xiaoxiao put her hand on his chest, holding him back.

Mu Zisu frowned...

"I’m hungry, I want to eat..."

Hearing Na Xiaoxiao’s words, Mu Zisu finally let her go, "Wait here, I’ll go see..."

Suddenly, Na Xiaoxiao grabbed his hand again, and he raised an eyebrow...

"Um... could you bring up a bottle of red wine..."

A gleam shot through the depths of Mu Zisu’s eyes, and he gave her a suggestive smile: "Sure..."

Na Xiaoxiao knew what he was thinking, but she didn’t explain, and just nodded at him with a blushing face.

Mu Zisu left the room in high spirits, while Na Xiaoxiao instantly deflated like a balloon, sliding weakly against the wall to the floor.

Her right hand clutched fiercely at her chest where there was pain—as if being cut by a knife!

Not long after, Mu Zisu came back carrying a bowl of sweet rice wine soup balls, with a bottle of red wine and two goblets on the tray.

Na Xiaoxiao sat on the sofa beside him, squinting and smiling as she watched Mu Zisu.

Mu Zisu felt warm and happy inside. Every time he came back in the past, the room was empty; now, he finally knew what it felt like to open the door and see the one he loved waiting for him.

"Aren’t you hungry? Eat more..." He walked over and placed the tray in front of her.

Na Xiaoxiao picked up a spoon, scooped up a round soup ball, blew on it, and then brought it to Mu Zisu’s lips—

Mu Zisu raised an eyebrow and curled his lips. Then he opened his mouth and didn’t speak until he swallowed: "Didn’t you say I’ve put on weight? And yet you’re still letting me eat..."

Na Xiaoxiao laughed lightly: "Being chubby is cuter. Look at your childhood photos, you were so plump and cute..."

After saying this, Na Xiaoxiao glanced at the group photo on the stand. It was taken on Mu Zisu’s sixth birthday and included Mu Zisu’s and her grandparents, parents, him and Mu Zixuan, along with the newly-born Little Qiqi. Mu Yingchen and Su Wanxia were all there; it was a family portrait.

Mu Zisu looked at his grandparents in the photo and felt a wave of melancholy.

"When we have children in the future, they’ll definitely be cute too..." Mu Zisu’s voice was laced with a trace of longing.

Na Xiaoxiao’s body suddenly stiffened, as if a large hand had viciously grasped her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Mu Zisu shifted his gaze from the photograph and looked at Na Xiaoxiao, as if waiting for her answer.

Na Xiaoxiao chuckled, stirring the glutinous rice balls in the bowl with her hand, "Mmm... must be cute..."

If you stared closely at her hands, you would notice they were trembling.

"Hurry up and eat... It won’t taste good once it’s cold..." Mu Zisu said, reaching out to ruffle her hair.

Na Xiaoxiao offered him another one, "I can’t finish them..."

Mu Zisu laughed helplessly and bowed his head to eat another.

Na Xiaoxiao was the one who said she was hungry, yet nearly the entire bowl of glutinous rice balls was eaten by Mu Zisu, who only realized afterward that he seemed to have eaten more than Na Xiaoxiao had.

"How about that? Are you full?" Na Xiaoxiao asked, tilting her head to look at Mu Zisu.

Mu Zisu frowned, "Weren’t you the one who was hungry?"

"I was hungry, but I have a small stomach. I get full after just a little..."

Mu Zisu stood up and suddenly picked her up.

She let out a low cry and suddenly clung to his neck.

Mu Zisu looked down with a mischievous smile, "Since you’re full, let’s go take a bath..."

Na Xiaoxiao protested urgently, "I don’t want to take a bath yet..."

"Then what do you want to do?"

"I want to chat with you for a while..."

Mu Yingchen raised an eyebrow, chatting... was not bad...

Then, he nestled on the sofa with her in his arms again.

"What do you want to talk about..." He embraced her in his arms and gently stroked her smooth hair, over and over.

Na Xiaoxiao lay in his embrace, staring up at his perfect, handsome face under the light, and smiled slyly, "How much do you love me..."

Mu Zisu frowned thoughtfully for a moment before looking down at her, "A lot..."

"How much is a lot..." Na Xiaoxiao’s eyes held a hint of sadness.

Mu Zisu thought once more before replying, "A lot means very, very much..." Forgive young master Mu for not being adept at whispering sweet nothings.

Na Xiaoxiao chuckled softly; this Mu Zisu was indescribably adorable.

"Do you still remember when we first met?"

Mu Zisu smiled, "On a snowy day..."

"You actually remember?" Na Xiaoxiao was surprised.

"How could I forget? That day, the Su Family had a visit from a little girl who was both silly and dumb..."

--Na Xiaoxiao’s face turned red all at once--

Back then, she truly was quite silly and dumb, a pure and clueless girl fresh from the countryside. Everything was a shock to her, especially high-tech stuff. She could stand and stare at it for an hour or two, completely fascinated.

"I thought to myself, how can there be someone so dumb in the world..." Mu Zisu said, his voice laced with laughter.

Na Xiaoxiao looked at him with a sudden wistful expression, "I wasn’t that dumb. It was just that those things were new to me, and I didn’t recognize them, but look, I learned them all afterward, didn’t I..."
