Chapter 675: Chapter 673 Let me love you well, until the end of time_1

He lowered his eyes to the ring in his hand, his lips curling into a bitter smile, "I wanted to give you this ring a long time ago, but there was never a right opportunity..."

He slowly stood up, kneeled down on one knee before the carved stone bed with the grace of yesteryear, one hand still holding Xiaoxiao’s.

"Xiaoxiao... will you marry me? I swear... I will never let you be hurt again... Let me love you well, until the end of time..." Mu Zisu gazed at the tranquil face of Xiaoxiao, then lowered his head and lightly kissed the back of her hand.

He had planned to wait until she woke up to propose to her, but he didn’t want to wait anymore...

However, after all his actions, the response he got was a silent room.

He slightly curved his lips, tenderly looking at Xiaoxiao who lay there like a sleeping princess with her eyes closed, "Since you’re not saying anything, that means you agree..."

He held Xiaoxiao’s hand and carefully slid the diamond ring onto her ring finger.

"Xiaoxiao... don’t make me wait too long..."

--

Flowers bloom and wither, three years pass in an instant--

In the Mu Family’s garden, birds chirped and fragrances wafted, and a rosy little Tuanzi was joyfully kicking a soccer ball on the lush green lawn, looking utterly adorable...

His chubby cheeks were flushed red as he huffed and puffed, making the onlookers experience a mix of delight and affection.

"Cancan... if you’re tired, take a break, don’t overdo it~" Mu Ziqing smiled with eyes narrowed, watching the cute little one.

"Auntie... Uncle hardly ever gets to play with me, so let me play a little longer, just a little longer..." Cancan stretched out his adorable fingers, gesturing to Mu Ziqing.

Mu Ziqing felt both amused and helpless; she played with him every day, yet he had never seemed this excited, right?

She took a step forward, "Isn’t it fun when Auntie plays with you?"

On hearing Mu Ziqing’s words, Cancan turned his clear, distinct eyes, thought for a moment, and then crisply said, "Let’s play together then..."

Mu Ziqing reached out and pinched his chubby cheek, "We’re not playing now... We’ll play later..." This little one, just like his mommy, very fond of playing.

Mu Zisu also walked over to Cancan and reached out to touch his adorable little head, "Let’s rest for a bit, and Uncle will play with you afterwards..."

Upon hearing Mu Zisu’s words, Cancan’s face lit up with joy, "Uncle... you’re not lying to me?"

Mu Zisu raised an eyebrow, "When has Uncle ever lied to you..."

Yet Cancan pouted, "In the past, every time you saw me, you said you would play with me, but in the end, you never did..." The little boy questioned Mu Zisu with skeptical eyes.

Mu Zisu shook his head with a laugh, this little one had quite the memory, holding him accountable all this time.

He bent down and picked up Cancan, "That’s because Uncle was too busy... Today, Uncle isn’t going to the company, I’ll stay home and play with you, how’s that?"

Cancan’s eyes, dark and bright, widened instantly, "Really?"

Mu Zisu laughed softly, "Really..."

"That’s great! Uncle... It would be even better if you could spend more time with me in the future..."

Frowning, Mu Ziqing cast a glance at Little Cancan, feeling wronged—she played with him every day, yet now that Uncle was here, Auntie was forgotten.

"Cancan... So do you want Uncle to spend more time with you or Auntie to spend more time with you..."

Cancan blinked twice upon hearing Mu Ziqing’s words, looking at Mu Ziqing who was staring at him, and then said to both of them, "You both have to spend more time with me..."

Mu Zisu’s smile deepened at the corners of his mouth. This little guy even knew how to figure out the adults’ thoughts.

Mu Ziqing huffed, "Good thing you still remember your little aunt, otherwise, your little aunt will never play with you again..."

"Little aunt... you’re always in my heart..." Cancan’s words were as sweet as candy.

Mu Ziqing immediately burst into laughter, "You little rascal, you’re so young and already so articulate. What will you be like when you grow up?"

Little Cancan, upon being said so by Mu Ziqing, grinned with a giggle, "Little aunt... everything I’m saying is true..."

Mu Ziqing shook her head and sighed once more. Are all kids these days this clever?

Mu Zisu was also amused by Cancan and laughed. The way children spoke with their milky voice was really adorable.

After carrying Cancan into the pavilion, Pei Mojing immediately stood up and took the little one into his arms.

"Brother... When you go see Xiaoxiao tomorrow, let us go with you..." Mu Zixuan said to Mu Zisu who was sitting across from her.

All this time, it had always been just him visiting Xiaoxiao, and they too wanted to go see her.

Upon hearing Mu Zixuan’s words, Mu Zisu hooked the corner of his lips slightly, "If you want to go, let’s go together..."

No sooner had his words fallen than Mu Zixuan could speak up, Cancan in Pei Mojing’s arms asked with his babyish voice, "Mommy... who is Xiaoxiao?"

In the three years since, there had still been no sign of Na Xiaoxiao waking up. The hopeful anticipation of everyone slowly turned into worry, and to keep Mu Zisu from feeling uncomfortable, everyone tacitly mentioned Na Xiaoxiao very seldom, to prevent Mu Zisu’s heart from aching even more.

Upon hearing Cancan’s question, Mu Zixuan chuckled, "Do you want to know, Cancan?"

Cancan immediately nodded obediently, "Hmm..."

"How about Mommy tells you after we get there, is that okay?" Mu Zixuan’s tone was gentle.

"Alright..." Cancan agreed somewhat reluctantly, nodding his head. In fact, he wanted to know now, but since mommy didn’t want to say it at the moment, he could wait a bit longer...

Seeing the little guy’s demeanor, everyone couldn’t help but chuckle softly. This little one was truly a miniature adult.

The following day--

Mu Zisu took everyone to visit Na Xiaoxiao, and upon arriving at the entrance of the grave, this put Hailey in a bit of a spot. It would have been fine with just Mu Zisu coming by himself, but how came so many this time?

"Hehehe, Brother Zisu... about this... they..." Hailey was at a loss for words.

Mu Zisu knew what he was trying to say and couldn’t help but chuckle, "They’re not strangers, they’re family, it’s okay..."

The corner of Hailey’s mouth twitched...

Is this something he should just casually say?

"What? Don’t believe me? Do I need to call my father-in-law here first?" Mu Zisu said, raising an eyebrow at him.

As soon as Hailey heard him mention the father-in-law, the twitching at the corner of his mouth became even more intense...

Father-in-law? He sure said it smoothly. He and Xiaoxiao weren’t even officially married yet, right? But he’d already started saying "father-in-law"?

However, the affair between him and Xiaoxiao was a done deal, and getting married was only a matter of time. All things considered, once they were in-laws, none of them were strangers anymore.
