C12 Guest?!

He …

How could he be here?! Could he be here to look for me?

"Your parents are so kind. "Come, let's go to the north and take a seat first." He Zhi An called out to him.

North... Mu Zhibei?!

He is today's esteemed guest?!

Chu Xia was immediately dumbfounded.

"..."

Just as Mu Zhibei was about to sit down, he felt a gaze fixated on him.

Looking up, he saw Chu Xia, who was standing two meters away.

A trace of interest flashed through his pair of deep eyes.

Chu Xia felt as if all the blood in her body had frozen. She wanted to run away, but …

If they were to run away from such an occasion, wouldn't they lose everything?

"Who is she?" Mu Zhibei was the first to speak, his eyes fixated on Chu Xia's body, interspersed with a faint smile.

Chu Xia felt goosebumps all over his body as he had a premonition.

He Haohao glanced at her, then stood up and walked towards her. She intimately took her hand and introduced her, "My wife, Su Chu Xia."

Chu Xia didn't know if it was an illusion or not, but he felt that Mu Zhibei's gaze paused for a split-second on her and He Haohao's tightly held hands.

"So that's how it is. "Hello, Mu Zhibei, nice to meet you."

He looked at Chu Xia and politely extended his hand. There were some meanings in the eyes that others could not understand.

Chu Xia still hadn't recovered from the shock. She stared at his hand in panic and didn't move.

Shu Ning Wan couldn't help but frown, and reprimanded in a low voice, "Chu Xia, what kind of etiquette is this? "How do you attend etiquette classes?"

"Ah?" Oh. "Sorry …" Chu Xia came back to her senses and apologized carefully to her mother-in-law.

Mu Zhibei was stunned for a moment by the submissive look.

Seeing his gaze, Chu Xia's heart was pounding.

He forced out a smile and clasped his hands, "Hello, I'm also very happy to be acquainted with you."

"Is that so? I thought you weren't happy, and your face didn't look good. " Mu Zhibei slightly pursed her lips and tightened her grip.

Chu Xia's heart leaped.

This man! Was it intentional?

She immediately retracted her hand and gently explained, "You must be thinking too much. But... "I've always been a stranger, so I'm a bit nervous. Please forgive me."

Rebirth?

The corner of Mu Zhibei's mouth twitched, and he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

How could he overlap this gentle and graceful girl in front of him with the violent woman who had screamed and kicked him that day while holding a pillow?

What was this girl doing?

"Dad, Mom, I'll be leaving first. "The kitchen is still waiting for me to cook, so …"

Chu Xia felt guilty and immediately found an excuse to leave. This kind of scene was too terrible! She had to be alone and think things through!

"Mm, you go first. You won't be of much use here anyway. " Shu Ningwan waved her hands, allowing Chu Xia to leave.

With a turn of his body, Chu Xia dashed away as if she had received amnesty.

"..."

The man from that night, the legendary noble young master, seven times in the night …

Chu Xia tried very hard to put the three identities together.

No wonder, his temperament was completely different from ordinary people. It turned out that the noble air was something that he was born with.

But...

Wasn't the name 'Seven Lons in a Night' a little too much? That night, they probably didn't have seven! In her memories, there was only one vague memory.

But none of this mattered! The important thing is...

Would he say what happened that night? Judging from today's act of pretending to be completely foreign to him, he should have reached a complete consensus on this matter.

"Ouch!" Su Chu Xia, you've caused too much trouble! It's not good to provoke someone, why did you provoke a guest of the He family!? " She grumbled and slapped her forehead with a headache.

He really wanted to dig a hole and bury himself inside it!

"Young Mistress, why do you have a bitter face? Did Madam say something else? " Sis Li came closer and asked in a low voice.

Chu Xia then turned around and squeezed out a weak smile, "No." I'll make this soup myself. Leave the kitchen to me, you guys go back to work. "

"Alright, we need some men outside too." Young Mistress, be careful too. Don't let the fire burn you. " With a word of warning, Sister Li left with Mrs. Chan.

In the kitchen, only Chu Xia was left.

She was very anxious and wanted to ask what he was chatting with the He family, but she didn't dare to appear in front of him.

Just as he was scooping out the boiled chicken mushroom soup from the claypot, he heard the kitchen door being pushed open. Then, steady footsteps slowly approached him.

Chu Xia put down the pot and turned around.

The figure had come up behind her, and as she turned, she struck his solid chest.

Who would have thought that it would be Mu Zhibei? Chu Xia was so shocked that she took a step back, and the spoon in her hand clanged as it fell to the ground.

"You … What are you doing in here? "

Mu Zhibei picked up the spoon, placed it on the counter and raised his eyebrows at her, "What do you think?"

"How do I know what you want?" Chu Xia saw that he was about to cry and felt extremely uneasy, "Please, just leave after eating, okay? We'll treat it like two strangers who don't know each other at all. "
