C174 Misunderstanding (1/2)
Mu Xiaoxi's condition had just improved a little, but Mu Ziyao was really worried about leaving him alone at home, hence he decided to bring his child with him to the beacon.
Mu Ziyao squatted in front of Mu Xiaoxi, rubbed his face that had finally turned a little red, and said softly: ”Baby Xiaoxi, can you go to the company with Mommy?”
Mu Xiaoxi obediently replied, ”I'll listen to your mother.”
Seeing her son's obedient look, Mu Ziyao's heart was filled with softness, but when she thought about Lin Shumo's heartless and cold attitude last night, the grievances in her heart towards Lin Shumo grew even stronger.
Mu Ziyao held Mu Xiaoxi's hand and walked into the company. The aunties who loved him before were all constantly expressing their longing for him, so Mu Ziyao was naturally very happy as well.
After taking the elevator to the office, Mu Ziyao placed Mu Xiaoxi on the sofa beside him and placed the thermos cup that he had prepared beside him, giving him some more detailed instructions.
”Darling Xiaoxi, you're not fully recovered yet. Drink more hot water. There's a blanket over there. If you're tired, just lie down for a while.”
”Alright, Mom, hurry up. I can do it myself.”
Mu Xiaoxi knew that he couldn't cause trouble for his mother, so he sat obediently on the sofa. His small body sank into the sofa, making others unable to tell at a glance that he had a small child.
Just as Mu Ziyao took his seat, he saw Lin Shumo walk in angrily. Without waiting for Mu Ziyao to react, he straightened his face and used a voice that could freeze people to ask: ”Mu Ziyao, are you really that capable?”
Mu Ziyao was so angry that he started laughing.
”I have always been rather capable. I wonder which matter Director Lin is talking about?”
”Your temper isn't good enough, is it?” Lin Shumo thought about how he hadn't felt like finding her for all these days, and his heart immediately went cold. No matter what, even if it was a lie, he had to find a reason to speak to her today.
Just these few words caused Mu Ziyao's eyes to turn red instantly. She thought of Xiaoxi's pale white face last night, thought of how it had been difficult for her as well as how cold Lin Shumo had been. Mu Ziyao bit her lips to prevent her tears from flowing down.
At this moment, Lin Shumo suddenly felt something slapping against his thigh. Lowering his head to look, he realized that Mu Xiaoxi was hitting his leg with her hand.
”What are you yelling at Mommy for? I was disappointed in you. ”
Hearing the voice, Lin Shumo looked over. He was not able to find the existence of another person in the office.
Seeing that his son, whose face was so thin that he had not seen for a long time, had completely lost his temper, he quickly squatted down and wanted to pacify his son. However, he did not expect that Mu Xiaoxi had thrown him off her arms and ran over to Mu Ziyao's feet to hug him.
”You're a bad guy!” Big Scoundrel! ”You only know how to scold and bully Mommy, I don't want to bother with you anymore!”
Lin Shumo quickly replied, ”I …” Before he could finish, Mu Xiaoxi had already snatched him away.
