The night a week ago, under the Pagoda tree at the intersection, this man called Mu Dongdong had told him that he would have to get married to have such a relationship.

I'm serious, he said.

He said, I'll give you time to think about it.

He said, Xia Mu, I am the most suitable person for you in this world.

His words to her, in retrospect, Xia Mu actually remembered every word clearly. Since when did she start to care so much about him? This man, was currently pouring into Xia Mu's life bit by bit with a unique strength, all the way until he became the one in possession.

"Xia Mu, tell me, what's your answer?" Mu Dongdong supported Xia Mu's shoulder as he asked in a low and bewitching voice.

"Mu Dandong," Xia Mu softly called out his name, raising his head and gathering his courage to look at him.

Mu Dongdong's eyes were locked onto Xia Mu, just like a deep ocean, causing him to involuntarily fall in love.

"Mu Dong, I'm sorry. My answer is no." The most hurtful words came out of her lips.

The man's gaze remained unperturbed. There were no ripples on the calm surface of the sea. Even his voice didn't fluctuate at all. He only said, "I understand."

Mu Dongdong let go of Xia Mu's shoulder as he stood there. With a calm expression, he said, "I'll pick up the kids in the afternoon. You can take a rest." With that, he walked away.

"Mu …" Xia Mu stared at the departing figure, his lips moving yet he didn't know what to say.

Xia Mu thought, maybe from now on, he wouldn't come back. This was actually quite good.

But why was his heart so sad?

When Wang Lan Lan knocked on the door, Xia Mu was lying on the bed, tossing and turning. She didn't want to move at all, and didn't even know when she climbed onto the bed. After Mu Xiangdong left, she did not want to do anything else. Although she wanted to find something to resolve the frustration in her heart, she found it to be completely powerless. He decided to just lie on the bed and sleep.

"Have you cooked yet?" Wang Lan Lan followed Xia Mu into the house.

Xia Mu lay down on the bed without any care for his image, as he replied dejectedly, "No."

Wang Lan walked to the bedside and looked down at Xia Mu as she asked, "What happened to you? Did you lose your soul?"

"I'm not in a good mood." It was hard to say what it was for, but Xia Mu's heart was filled with a sense of frustration, as if he was holding something down in his throat.

"For men?" Wang Lan Lan pointed it out with a single sentence.

Xia Mu's eyes widened as he replied, "What nonsense are you spouting!"

Wang Lan Lan harrumphed, "Are you talking nonsense? You should be clear about this in your heart! "Oh right, to be honest, what is the background of the man I met that day?"

Xia Mu crawled up and sat cross-legged on the bed. In her heart, she had the thought of talking quickly with others. She blinked her eyes and organized her thoughts before asking, "Lan Lan, what do you think of him?"

Wang Lan kicked off her slippers and climbed onto the bed. She sat down across from Xia Mu, grabbed a teddy bear and asked, "Who bought this?" Looking around, it seemed that there were a lot of children's toys in this room. There were dolls that girls liked, and model airplanes that boys liked. They were all brand-new.

Before Xia Mu could reply, Wang Lan Lan continued, "From the looks of it, you are a responsible and reliable person. I don't mind you taking the children with you since the children like you too. In short, I think it's not bad. But, Xia Mu, I think it's good, is it useful? Whether you want to start or not, the key is you! " Although Wang Lan Lan Lan was young, her eyes were very vicious. With her words, she was able to put out Xia Mu's cowardice.

Chapter 242 The Closed Heart

Wang Lan Lan held onto the teddy bear's arm, looking at Xia Mu, she asked, "Xia Mu, should we start? The key is you, have you thought about it?"

Xia Mu sat cross-legged, his eyes filled with confusion as he asked, "A person like me, can I have love?"

Wang Lan Lan tugged on the teddy bear's bow tie and said seriously, "Xia Mu, what do you mean by being like this? What's wrong with being like you? "You rely on hard work to support your children, whether it's stealing or robbing, working hard. Compared to those people outside who get what they want without working, you, Xia Mu, are simply perfect!" Wang Lan Lan didn't like Xia Mu's way of speaking. What do you mean by 'a person like me'? The moment she heard this, she got angry.

"Lan Lan, I'm very scared. I keep having the feeling that Mu Dongfang's appearance is just like a dream. You know I'm used to being alone, and I can't resist the sudden appearance of a man who's so good to me. Furthermore, I have a feeling about him. " Xia Mu admitted it. In front of Wang Lan Lan, she admitted that her heart was beating fast.

Wang Lan Lan looked at Xia Mu. She sat there, the sunlight shining through the windows onto her face, outlining her delicate face. There was a bit of anticipation in her bright eyes, but also a lot of unease.

Wang Lan Lan stretched out her hand and held Xia Mu's hand, saying, "Xia Mu, you have to be brave. It is said that mother is the bravest person in the world, you have already given birth to two children, but it is only one man, what are you afraid of! Try to accept him, and I'm sure he won't be a disappointment. "

Xia Mu's heart was simply too sealed. She was immersed in her own world, and her entire mind was on her own child. She didn't care about the gazes of the outside world, but she was still yearning for love.

Beautiful love, ah, is everyone's heart yearning.

When Mu Dong left the courtyard, his heart was completely at peace. Xia Mu had rejected him again and again. In his expectation, he was just vexed over whether he should use some "excessive" method to get the beauty!

His vacation was already halfway through, and before it was over, he had to solve this big problem. However, that little girl was too lacking in confidence. Mu Dongfang thought that perhaps she didn't fully consider the matter, and what he needed to do next was a lot more.

When Mu Dongdong received his sister's call, he was driving his car home. He had been out every day for the past few days and his mother, Jiang Lanying, already had an opinion on this.

"Bro, do you have time at noon?" Mu Xiangxi asked over the phone.

"What? You want to treat me to a meal?" Mu Dongfang asked with a smile.

"I'll wait for you at the East Gate." Mu Xiangsi answered lightly.

After making an appointment, Mu Dongfang turned around and headed towards his destination.

She chose a Cantonese teahouse for lunch. She recently fell in love with Cantonese cuisine and enjoyed morning and evening tea.

After they sat down, Mu Xiangxi looked at her brother and suddenly felt that Mu Dongfang seemed to have changed.

"Brother, I need to ask you a question."

Mu Dongfang raised his eyebrows. This action was very similar to Mu Zexi's, but the two of them had a different demeanor when they did it.

"Shouldn't you find me a sister-in-law?" Mu Xiangxi asked mischievously.

Mu Dongfang smiled and didn't talk about it. Instead, he asked another question, "How can we quickly and effectively take down a woman?"

Mu Xiangxi spat out the stocking milk tea he had just swallowed. "Big bro, what did you say?!"

Woman?! Heavens, is this still my brother, who is known for his seriousness?

"I confessed, but I was rejected." Mu Dongdong said calmly. His tone was as calm as it could be.

He wiped his mouth and asked with interest, "Brother, what kind of person are you? Bring them to me!" He was curious about his brother's confession.

Chapter 243 - Mother and Child

Mu Dongfang had his own way of fighting how to take down a woman quickly and effectively.

That afternoon, he still went to pick up the two kids from school. After sending them home, he directly left, not even greeting Xia Mu, but his usual kind face, when facing Xia Mu, had a tight smile on his face, causing Nannan to ask Xia Mu if he had quarreled with his uncle after Mu Dong had left the courtyard.

"Darling, mom did not quarrel with uncle!" Xia Mu patiently explained to his daughter.

"Then why isn't Uncle smiling at you?" She felt that something must have happened between the two adults that she did not know of.

"He's such a big guy, why does he have to smile at me!" Xia Mu's good temper was completely used up, and she thought how the morning was still fine, but in just a few hours time, it had become like this.

"But uncle is smiling at us!" The little girl opened her eyes wide as she looked at Xia Mu, her bright eyes filled with doubt.

Xia Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he replied, "He really does like you two when he smiles at you two."

"If uncle doesn't laugh at mother, then he doesn't like mother!" The little girl reasoned as if it was a matter of course.

In the morning, he even said that he liked me, but I rejected him!

With these words, Xia Mu almost blurted out his thoughts.

I must have fainted, why did I have to cough with my child here? Xia Mu hit his head, trying to get rid of the strange thoughts in his head.

"Alright, go play with your little brother." Right, why didn't Fatty Su come along today? "

"His mother came to pick him up. His mother is a doctor, she looks really pretty!" Thinking of the beautiful aunt who smiled at him, Nannan felt that she was a good person.

"Oh? Is she as beautiful as my mother? " Xia Mu deliberately asked.

"Of course not. My mother is the most beautiful mother in the world! " Nannan proudly said.

Xia Mu was happy to be coaxed by the child as he happily went to prepare dinner. However, when he thought of the words that Nannan said just now, his heart started beating like a drum. Could it be that he had an opinion on him?

At the Mu residence, in the garden.

A woman with a bun was sitting on a rattan chair in the hallway, holding an original English book in her hands.

Jiang Lanying liked to read in the yard in this kind of weather. It was very quiet, allowing her to think very well.

"Dong'zi, come here." Jiang Lanying said with a smile when she saw her son enter the courtyard.

"You're in such a mood today!" Mu Xiangdong walked over and sat down, then poured himself a cup of scented tea.

"I've seen you running outside for the past few days. Your brother has been missing you all day. Just what are you two doing?!" Jiang Lanying asked.

Mu Dongfang put down the bone china cup and looked at Jiang Lanying. He replied with a smile, "I'm busy chasing your wife! As for big brother, he's probably around the same as me! "

"Oh?" Jiang Lanying's interest was piqued after hearing her son speak like this. She asked, "Which family's girl is she from?"

"Mom, I told Susu about her. She's a very nice girl. " At the mention of Xia Mu, a trace of warmth appeared on Mu Dongfang's face.

Jiang Lanying looked at her son and comforted him in her heart. She thought that her son had really let go of her and let go of her heart. She was truly happy. She had waited far too long for this day.

"Dong Zi, since you've already decided, then let's strike the iron while it's still hot. I'm at home everyday and have nothing to do. All of you get married as soon as possible, so I can carry my grandson as soon as possible." Jiang Lanying was rather envious of the people in the courtyard who moved quickly and had even picked up their grandsons.

"No problem. However, that little girl is still young. When we meet again, you must love her dearly! "

"Kid, your wife hasn't even married into the family and you're already worried about your mother-in-law bullying you, seriously!" He really couldn't help but be confused.
