The husband I got is actually the heir to a wealthy family

"Zihao, I'm so sorry. Auntie is on a business trip these days and can't come to the villa to accompany you. I have already informed your uncle before. Didn't he tell you?"

Mu Ningxi found a reason that she thought was reasonable and dragged Huo Beichen into the water.

I can’t let her be blamed by Zihao alone. No matter what, I have to drag someone down with me.

Sure enough, after hearing what Mu Ningxi said, Zheng Zihao complained about Huo Beichen directly on the phone: "My uncle is so annoying. When he comes back, I will definitely ignore him."

As soon as Zheng Zihao finished speaking, Huo Beichen, who was dining in a private room, sneezed.

Why do I feel like someone is talking about me?

Huo Beichen wiped his nose with a tissue while thinking to himself.

"Aunt Mu, you don't want to accompany me, so you make up an excuse to fool me?" After complaining, Zheng Zihao continued to ask.

Are kids nowadays so smart that they can even guess this?

Mu Ningxi felt a little embarrassed after being exposed by Zheng Zihao.

"How is that possible? Auntie is eager to accompany you, but the work is not completed and there is nothing I can do." In order to appease Zheng Zihao, Mu Ningxi could only continue to make up stories.

Hearing Mu Ningxi's sincere answer, Zheng Zihao no longer doubted it. He put aside his unhappiness and said seriously: "Aunt Mu, I will wait for you to come back from your business trip. Remember, come to the villa as soon as you come back. I really miss you."

"Auntie promises you that as soon as I come back, I will come to the villa to accompany Zihao." Mu Ningxi promised solemnly.

After finally getting Zheng Zihao to hang up the phone, Mu Ningxi leaned back in her chair exhausted and took a deep breath.

I don’t know how long it will take for Huo Beichen’s grandfather to pass away. When Zihao calls me next time, what excuse should I find to fool him?

This question made Mu Ningxi very embarrassed.

After three days of anxiety, Huo Beichen called Mu Ningxi on Thursday night and told her, "My grandfather has left. I will send someone to pick you up at the villa after get off work tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you Mr. Huo." Sitting on the chair in the study, Mu Ningxi responded with a smile.

This way, there's no need to keep making up lies, liar Hao.

Thinking of this, Mu Ningxi became even happier.

After staying at Wang Luyao's place for two days, Mu Ningxi felt that there was no movement from Mu Xiner's side, so he returned to his home.

She hasn't yet completed the design of the new product, and Mu Ningxi doesn't want to waste any more time.

Once the cultural and entertainment sector is officially on track, she will definitely become busier than she is now. Mu Ningxi wants to seize this time to complete the new product.

On Friday, Mu Ningxi had just walked out of the Huo's Building after get off work when A Kun called her: "Madam, I'm a little ahead of the sidewalk opposite your company. Please walk a few more steps."

"Okay!" Mu Ningxi felt very comfortable that the other party took such care of her feelings.

Mu Ningxi crossed the sidewalk and walked about 100 meters forward, then saw Huo Beichen's car parked there.

Mu Ningxi jogged a few steps and quickly walked to the side of the car.

As she approached, the passenger door opened and A Kun walked out.

"Young Madam, please get in the car." A Kun opened the back door and made a "please" gesture to Mu Ningxi.

Mu Ningxi smiled and nodded, glancing at the car.

"The young master couldn't come because of something, so he sent me here to pick up the young mistress." As if he could see what Mu Ningxi was looking at, A Kun explained.

"It doesn't matter." Mu Ningxi smiled awkwardly at A Kun and responded.

Is it that obvious?

Mu Ningxi felt a little embarrassed about her actions just now.

She was indeed looking to see if Huo Beichen was in the car, but she was just looking. Why did it seem in A Kun's eyes that I was looking forward to Huo Beichen appearing in the car?

As he thought about it, Mu Ningxi stepped forward and sat on it.

Only after Mu Ningxi sat down did A Kun close the car door.

After arriving at the villa, Mu Ningxi did not see Huo Beichen.

He was indeed busy.

Recalling what A Kun had said before, Mu Ningxi agreed in her heart.

Zheng Zihao was so excited that he was a little overwhelmed when he saw Mu Ningxi suddenly appear in the villa.

It seems that Huo Beichen didn't tell Zihao that I would be coming today.

Looking at Zheng Zihao's reaction, Mu Ningxi was once again speechless about Huo Beichen's behavior.

He has no respect for children at all. Next time I see him, I should have a good talk with him about this issue.

The next time Mu Ningxi was thinking about came soon.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, after coaxing Zheng Zihao to sleep, Mu Ningxi, who couldn't sleep, got up, walked out of the bedroom, and went for a walk in the garden outside.

It was late at night, and the servants, who had been busy all day, had returned to their respective rooms. The garden was now empty.

Mu Ningxi strolled in the garden, smelling the fragrance of flowers, feeling relaxed and happy.

"What's wrong? Can't sleep?" At this time, a deep male voice sounded behind Mu Ningxi.

Startled by the sudden voice, Mu Ningxi's body stiffened, but when she saw Huo Beichen behind her, she relaxed instantly.

"You just came back?" Looking at Huo Beichen dressed in a neat suit and his face slightly dusty, Mu Ningxi asked tentatively.

Huo Beichen did not respond. He walked a few steps to Mu Ningxi and said with a half-smile, "You are still unwilling to acknowledge our relationship, so why do you want to exercise Mrs. Huo's rights and control your husband now?"

"I didn't." Mu Ningxi didn't expect Huo Beichen to say that, and she quickly explained.

"I'm glad you asked this. At least it proves that I still have a place in your heart." Ignoring Mu Ningxi's slightly red face, Huo Beichen stretched out a hand, gently stroked her lips, and murmured to himself.

How come a simple greeting becomes so complicated when it comes to him?

Mu Ningxi felt that she could hardly keep up with Huo Beichen's pace.

Speechless, Mu Ningxi could only cough lightly, trying to ease the awkwardness between the two of them.

As soon as she spoke, a coat with Huo Beichen's body temperature was immediately put on Mu Ningxi. The next second, Huo Beichen's complaining voice sounded:

"It's cold at night, and I didn't even bother to put on an extra layer of clothing when I went downstairs."

Mu Ningxi felt a little embarrassed by what he said. She unconsciously took a few steps forward and her coat fell to the ground without being put on properly.

Seeing this, Mu Ningxi quickly lowered his head and picked up his coat.

At this time, the other hand also holds the coat in its hand.

When they both looked up, Mu Ningxi's lips gently brushed Huo Beichen's lips.

After reacting, Mu Ningxi threw away the coat in her hand and said incoherently: "Mr. Huo, I didn't mean it just now."

"It doesn't matter if you did it on purpose. It's your right as Mrs. Huo anyway."
