The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 225 I'll be very troubled

Chapter 225 I'll be very troubled

"Do you know?"

Liang Qiao nodded, his gentle smile still on his face. He looked at Mu Xiaoyu, who was surprised but delighted, and said, "I've encountered this once before."

Liang Qiao didn't reveal what it was. For a woman, Mu Xiaoyu's appearance at that moment was far too pathetic, and saying it would only make things more awkward. By saying it this way, Liang Qiao maintained his gentlemanly demeanor while also being considerate of Mu Xiaoyu.

Mu Xiaoyu was a smart person, so she naturally thought of this as well, and her gaze toward Liang Qiao became even more grateful.

She extended her hand to Liang Qiao and said, "Hello, I didn't have a chance to thank you last time, but I really need to thank you properly this time. I am Mu Xiaoyu, a comic artist, and this is my husband, Li Chenxu."

Liang Qiao glanced at Mu Xiaoyu's outstretched hand, his eyes lowered slightly, and a very complicated expression flashed across his face. However, it was only for a moment, so fast that it was almost impossible to catch.

He reached out and grasped Mu Xiaoyu's hand, his smile deepening, and said, "I am Liang Qiao, Ge Yun's husband. It's a pleasure to meet you both."

“Ge Yun…”

At this moment, Li Chenxu murmured to himself. His gaze swept between Liang Qiao and the woman beside him, and finally he suddenly smiled.

"So it's Mrs. Ge."

This Ge Yun was the hostess of this banquet. Li Chenxu knew a little about Ge Yun before; according to the information he had, Ge Yun was not married. How did she suddenly have a husband?

Li Chenxu was filled with doubt, but he didn't show it on his face, especially since Mu Xiaoyu was so happy at this moment...

Ge Yun and Liang Qiao both laughed. After exchanging pleasantries, Liang Qiao and Ge Yun, as the hosts of the banquet, naturally had to attend to other guests. So, after chatting with Li Chenxu and the others for a while, they left.

"What exactly is going on between you and that Liang Qiao?"

As soon as Ge Yun and Liang Qiao left, Li Chenxu immediately asked.

Mu Xiaoyu withdrew her gaze from Liang Qiao, pouted, and whispered, "Last time we argued, I was a little absent-minded and almost got hit by a car. It was Mr. Liang who pulled me back and prevented an accident."

Mu Xiaoyu spoke very softly. Actually, Li Chenxu was more at fault than Mu Xiaoyu was, but for some reason, whenever the previous incident was mentioned, Mu Xiaoyu felt inexplicably guilty, so much so that she didn't dare to look Li Chenxu in the eye when she spoke.

After speaking, Li Chenxu did not reply. Mu Xiaoyu waited for a while, but there was no response from him, so she couldn't hold back any longer and looked up. Her eyes met Li Chenxu's directly.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Li Chenxu stared intently at Mu Xiaoyu, his intense emotions almost overwhelming her, and she immediately began to protest softly.

"sorry."

Li Chenxu spoke, his voice deep, yet filled with obvious regret and heartache.

His voice sent a shiver down Mu Xiaoyu's spine, and her ears immediately began to burn. She subconsciously touched her ears and muttered softly, "It's all in the past...besides, nothing happened to me..."

"Luckily Liang Qiao saved you. If anything had happened to you, I don't know how I would have survived."

Li Chenxu spoke calmly, but the turbulent undercurrents hidden in his words left Mu Xiaoyu stunned.

“Brother Chenxu…”

She opened her mouth, as if to say something. But at that moment, Song Bai suddenly walked towards her.

"Xiaoyu."

When Song Bai approached, Mu Xiaoyu immediately swallowed back what she was about to say. She looked at Song Bai, feeling a little awkward, but still called him "senior." Compared to when Song Bai and she first met, they were much more distant now, and she didn't even want to spare a glance for him.

Song Bai was an extremely shrewd person, so how could he not see Mu Xiaoyu's aloofness? He couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself, but on the surface he still maintained a gentle demeanor.

"I didn't have time to see you last time, and I've lost your phone number... Are you alright?"

Song Bai didn't mention that last time it was because of Li Chenxu's deliberate obstruction. Now Mu Xiaoyu has developed an aversion to him. If he were to speak ill of Li Chenxu now, the two of them might not even have a chance to speak again in the future.

Actually, Mu Xiaoyu felt a little helpless at this moment. Why did Song Bai have to come to see her at this time of year?

Such an awkward thing happened just the last time we met...

Mu Xiaoyu didn't want to offend Song Bai in this situation, especially since Song Yin was also present. So, she could only nod and say, "I'm fine... I think Mrs. Ge's side is about to start. Let's talk about it later. Shen Xu and I will go over first."

This time, Mu Xiaoyu didn't give Song Bai a chance to speak. After saying that, she pulled Li Chenxu and walked towards the direction of Ge Yun and the others.

She wasn't familiar with Ge Yun, and her only intention was to get rid of Song Bai. She planned to find an excuse to leave when she got close to Ge Yun and the others, but as soon as she got there, Ge Yun saw them and started talking to them again.

Ge Yun has always lived abroad, but her Chinese is excellent; she doesn't seem like someone who has lived abroad for decades.

Moreover, perhaps because Liang Qiao and Mu Xiaoyu had some prior connection, Ge Yun treated Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu much better than he had treated others before.

They chatted for a while and then talked about business. Mu Xiaoyu knew nothing about this, so after a while she made an excuse and went to the balcony for some fresh air.

She had just reached the balcony when Song Yin arrived a few minutes later.

Several days had passed since their last meeting. Song Yin came over and handed a drink to Mu Xiaoyu.

"How did it go? I went to see you last time, but Mr. Li stopped me."

Song Yin and Mu Xiaoyu were much more relaxed and comfortable with each other, and they didn't feel awkward talking to each other because of Song Bai.

Mu Xiaoyu took the drink, took a sip, and then said, "I'm fine, it's just that Brother Chen Xu got a little injured, but he's all better now..."

As she spoke, Mu Xiaoyu turned to look at Song Yin beside her, and said with a hint of helplessness but also with utmost seriousness, "Song Yin, there's something I want to talk to you about seriously... As for your brother, can you think of a way to make him give up on me? I really... can't like him. The only person I've ever liked in this life is Brother Shenxu. If he continues to act like he did before, I'll be very troubled."
