Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Mu Dixin Buys Flowers

Mu Ran couldn’t bear to see the little one so upset, “How about taking some time off to relax?”

Chu Xijin: “…”

Auntie really is a great guardian, completely understands what kids love.

“No need, I’ve already relaxed a lot these past three days.”

“Do you want something delicious to eat?”

Mu Ran asked him again.

“Auntie, what do you want to eat?” Chu Xijin countered.

“Hotpot.”

“Then let’s have hotpot.”

“Sounds good!”

After having hotpot, Mu Ran needed to go get some cosmetic treatment and had to watch her diet, so she ate a lot.

“Later, I have to go back to the old house, do you want to come with me?”

“No, Auntie, just take me home.”

Going to school from the old house takes too long.

“Alright.”

Mu Ran drove him again.

While in the car, Mu Ran casually played a podcast, and it just happened to discuss marriage.

Mu Ran remembered that day when Xiao Jin held a grudge against Xiao Yu’an and asked him, “Xiao Jin, do you want me to get married?”

“Yes, I do.”

As someone who grew up in an ancient setting, Chu Xijin still thought marriage and kids were inevitable parts of life.

In the little time he spent with his mother, she was always concerned about his uncle’s marriage, considering it a regret in her heart.

Even though he wanted to stop Auntie from being with Uncle, he still wished for Auntie’s happiness.

Mu Ran stopped at the red light ahead and asked him why, “Do you know that many people today say there are no benefits to marriage?”

“Really?” Chu Xijin, not watching much short videos, didn’t know much, paused and said, “Then Auntie, just do what you want, whether you marry or not doesn’t matter, as long as you’re happy.”

As long as Auntie is always free and carefree.

Chu Xijin never thought there was anything wrong with that, just Auntie couldn’t be with Uncle.

Just thinking about that made Chu Xijin want to go crazy.

When will they break up!

“A happiness enthusiast?” Mu Ran murmured.

That’s not bad!

After dropping him off at the neighborhood entrance, Mu Ran drove to the old house too. Her sister-in-law was about four months pregnant now and she wondered what changes there’d be.

Feng Qikuo was on a business trip today.

Only Mu Dixin was there waiting, “Why so late? I’ve already got you an appointment, hurry to the hospital and get that scar removed!”

“It’s not ugly.” Mu Ran was speechless.

Her scar wasn’t ugly at all, in fact, it was quite impressive due to her personal charisma.

Mu Dixin glanced at her sideways, “Only you can’t see it, just do whatever the doctor says later.”

On the way, Mu Dixin turned into a nagging father, continuously muttering, and Mu Ran sincerely questioned, “Did all that money you spent on parenting experts to learn about raising kids just go to waste?”

Mu Dixin: “!!!”

“No one’s calling you mute for not speaking, and your sister-in-law said I learned well.”

“It’s the kids who judge how well you learned, not a sister-in-law who loves you deeply.” Mu Ran rolled her eyes.

Mu Dixin’s mouth curled slightly upwards.

She finally managed to say something nice, Feng Qikuo indeed loves him!

He also loves Feng Qikuo.

Mu Ran didn’t hear him retort, saw the faint smile on his face, and was quite puzzled.

She thought about what she just said.

Mu Ran wanted to slap herself, calling herself stingy for giving him credit!

At the hospital, Mu Ran went to take care of her wound, Mu Dixin reported his schedule to his wife, also sending her what Mu Ran said just now, “The brat finally said something sensible.”

“She must regret it now.”

“I can tell, her face looks so sour, she just talks before thinking, but sometimes the truth doesn’t need consideration.”

“Hahaha, you’ve become quite narcissistic, I’m about to board, won’t chat now.”

“Should I come pick you up?”

“I’m with colleagues, no need, see you tonight.”

“Okay.”

Mu Dixin found a place at the hospital to work. When Mu Ran sat in front of him, he said, “A lot of people are paying attention to your relationships, soon Mr. Xiao might find out about you and Xiao Yu’an, by then Mr. Xiao might look for you, don’t be afraid, our family is not inferior to theirs.”

The Xiao Family is indeed an old family.

But the Mu Family is not to be underestimated.

Mu Ran propped her head up, frowning and asking, “Why would he come to see me?”

“Most likely to intimidate you, or urge you to marry quickly, ignore these trivialities.”

Mu Dixin really wanted his sister to live peacefully.

He often criticized her for being so wild outside.

But he also disliked anyone forcing her to do what she didn’t like.

Especially regarding major life decisions like marriage.

Mr. Xiao wanted a granddaughter-in-law to control his grandson inheriting the family business, Mu Dixin thought his idea was far-fetched.

If Xiao Yu’an’s partner were Mu Ran.

If Mu Ran didn’t lead Xiao Yu’an astray to wander around freely, that would already be quite good, persuading him to inherit the family business would be impossible.

“Got it.”

Mu Ran felt that today Mu Dixin was like a normal brother.

He even seemed to care for her.

Looks like spending money really does have its uses.

But their least awkward atmosphere was quarreling, now with nothing to fight about, it felt very awkward.

Mu Dixin told the driver: “Go to the flower shop at my high school alma mater.”

“You’re buying flowers?” Mu Ran was surprised.

Mu Dixin awkwardly loosened his tie, glanced out the window, and mumbled.

Mu Ran: “???”

Why was he, a tycoon, suddenly so bashful?

Is he going crazy?

Mu Ran was utterly perplexed.

When they got to the flower shop, Mu Dixin went and chose some flowers, wrapping them up and placing them at the front of the car, telling the driver to drive slowly so the flowers wouldn’t tip over.

The driver was experienced.

He nodded and continued driving, smoothly all the way.

Mu Ran crossed her arms, noticing her big brother’s uneasiness, her mouth twitched slightly.

Knowing he’s in his thirties.

If you didn’t know, you’d think he was a teenager giving flowers to his first love.

A bunch of pale pink lychees riding in a luxurious car arrived at the Mu Family old house, after Mu Dixin got out of the car, he made sure to properly place the flowers, completely ignoring his sister behind him.

Mu Ran returning to the old house made Housekeeper Liu the happiest, preparing a bunch of delicious, light food for her, “You’ve been busy with filming recently and appearing on variety shows, it must be tiring, I’ve prepared some supplements for you, remember to bring them and eat them, alright?”

“I know.”

Facing the kind and amiable old housekeeper, Mu Ran always had more patience, “How’s your health been lately?”

“It’s the same as always…” Housekeeper Liu entered with her, “I still have to live a few more years, see Dixin’s child born and watch them grow up, by the way, Xiao Ran, you started dating, when are you bringing them home for a visit?”
