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

Chapter 204 Knowing one’s own warmth and coldness

"What's wrong? Did you have a quarrel with him? Was it because of that incident before?" Seeing Cheng Jingjing's changing expression, Mu Ningxi immediately remembered what happened with Gong Zhiling before and asked worriedly.

"Of course not. He has explained the matter to me clearly. It's just that it involves the privacy of certain people. Ning Xi, I can't tell you. I hope you can understand."

Hearing Mu Ningxi ask that, Cheng Jingjing immediately denied it.

"What's that for?" Mu Ningxi could tell from Cheng Jingjing's tone that she trusted Zhao Yu. This proved that the Gong Zhiling incident had no impact on the relationship between Cheng Jingjing and Zhao Yu. Mu Ningxi asked curiously.

"I, Ning Xi, have you ever tried to do anything, and there is always someone watching you from behind, constantly telling you how you should do this thing to be correct, and how you should do that thing wrong?"

Cheng Jingjing thought for a moment and asked Mu Ningxi.

Hearing her ask this, Mu Ningxi shook her head gently.

When Mu Ningxi was a child, in order to cultivate her independence, her parents let her make decisions on her own affairs. As long as it did not violate the principles, her parents would not interfere.

After her parents passed away, Mu Ningxi became more independent. Except for her grandfather who would occasionally nag her when she was alive, basically no one interfered with what she did.

As for the interference from her second uncle and second aunt, as long as Mu Ningxi didn't want to do it, she could think of various ways to deal with them.

Seeing Mu Ningxi shaking her head, Cheng Jingjing smiled bitterly and said, "I knew you wouldn't feel that way."

After a pause, Cheng Jingjing continued, "When I'm with Zhao Yu, I always have this feeling. He seems to be monitoring me all the time and always likes to interfere in my affairs. This makes me feel a little suffocated."

"Jingjing, aren't you flattering me a little? Zhao Yu treats you like that because he cares about you so much." Knowing Zhao Yu's feelings for Cheng Jingjing, Mu Ningxi tried to persuade Cheng Jingjing.

"I know he's doing that for my own good, but I really can't accept it," Cheng Jingjing retorted dejectedly.

"Jingjing, have you ever thought that it is because you have a prejudice against Zhao Yu that you think everything he does makes you feel uncomfortable?"

"I heard from your cousin before that when you were little, you and Zhao Yu had a very good relationship and often ran behind him. Why did you become a little distant after growing up?"

Mu Ningxi thought about it and helped Cheng Jingjing analyze it.

"I don't know either. Maybe it's because I've grown up. Especially after I found out that I was engaged to him, I can no longer be as relaxed and at ease as I was when I was a kid when facing Zhao Yu."

"Maybe it's because I'm too familiar with him, and I've always treated him as a brother. I don't feel comfortable dating and marrying him."

Cheng Jingjing frowned and expressed her feelings.

"Ning Xi, do you also think I should be with Zhao Yu?" Without waiting for Mu Ningxi to speak, Cheng Jingjing continued to ask.

Hearing her ask this, Mu Ningxi quickly shook her head and denied it: "I didn't mean that. When it comes to relationships, you know the ups and downs yourself. Only you know what to do. I just want to say that Zhao Yu is indeed an unattainable marriage partner. I hope you can consider it carefully."

Speaking of this, Mu Ningxi thought of Xie Tianyi whom she met in the hospital not long ago. She hesitated whether she should tell Cheng Jingjing about what happened that day.

"Of course I know Zhao Yu is a good person, but I don't seem to be attracted to him." Cheng Jingjing on the screen was very distressed.

"Jingjing, have you really tried to be with Zhao Yu as a boyfriend and girlfriend?" After a few seconds of silence, Mu Ningxi asked.

Her words immediately silenced Cheng Jingjing.

"Jingjing, why would you rather give someone like Xie Tianyi a chance than give Zhao Yu one?" Seeing that Cheng Jingjing didn't speak, Mu Ningxi continued to ask.

Although Cheng Jingjing did not admit in front of Mu Ningxi that there was anything going on between her and Xie Tianyi, Mu Ningxi had already noticed the ambiguity between them.

Mu Ningxi looked down on Xie Tianyi's character. In order to prevent Cheng Jingjing from continuing to be obsessed, Mu Ningxi planned to tell her the conversation between her and Xie Tianyi that day.

In this way, even if Cheng Jingjing would be dissatisfied with Mu Ningxi because of this matter, she could still feel at ease.

"Xie Tianyi, what's wrong with him?" Cheng Jingjing heard something wrong from Mu Ningxi's words and asked hurriedly.

Mu Ningxi shook her head and said frankly, "He didn't do anything. It's just that I met him outside the hospital that day. He spoke rudely. Not only did he treat you as Zhao Yu's lover, he also lectured me."

"Ning Xi, I haven't told him about my identity before. I didn't know he would say that. I..." After listening to Mu Ningxi's story, Cheng Jingjing said embarrassedly.

Looking at Cheng Jingjing who looked guilty, Mu Ningxi advised: "Jingjing, you and Xie Tianyi are not related at all, there is no need to feel guilty about his affairs. I just want to tell you that compared to Zhao Yu, Xie Tianyi's character is too bad. You must be careful of this person in the future."

"After all, even if you didn't tell him your identity before, you spent so much time together filming, spending so much time together day and night. How could he not know what kind of person you are? He shouldn't have slandered you like that."

"Ning Xi, thank you for telling me this. I will pay attention to it in the future." Cheng Jingjing said gratefully on the other end of the phone.

"Jingjing, give each other a chance. Maybe things won't develop as badly as you think." Mu Ningxi encouraged Cheng Jingjing.

Cheng Jingjing nodded and smiled knowingly: "Ning Xi, thank you. After chatting with you for a while, I feel much better."

Cheng Jingjing was feeling very upset, so she thought of calling Mu Ningxi to chat.

Although she has many friends around her, Cheng Jingjing increasingly feels that chatting with Mu Ningxi is more relaxing than chatting with others.

Could it be that it was because Mu Ningxi was her cousin's wife, so she could be defenseless towards her and say whatever she wanted?

"Cousin, I'm sorry to bother you for so long. I'll hang up first. We'll talk again when we have time." Thinking of Mu Ningxi's identity, Cheng Jingjing changed the address on the other end of the phone and said goodbye.

Holding the phone that had been hung up, Mu Ningxi recalled Cheng Jingjing's call of "cousin" just now, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Finally, she no longer had to hide her relationship in front of Cheng Jingjing and could openly admit her relationship with Huo Beichen.

Just as she was thinking, Mu Ningxi suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of her eye. She immediately turned around and saw Huo Beichen standing at the exit of the study, his eyes looking at her intently, and she didn't know what he was thinking.

How could this person stand behind me so silently? I don’t know how much of the conversation with Jingjing just now he heard?

Recalling that she didn't seem to have said anything excessive just now, Mu Ningxi took the initiative to greet him, "Boss Huo, is there anything?"

"Jingjing has a good relationship with you. Next time she comes to talk to you, I hope you can persuade her." Hearing Mu Ningxi's question, Huo Beichen responded.

Understanding what Huo Beichen meant, Mu Ningxi refused and said, "Only Jingjing can make the decision on her own about her relationship. I won't give her any advice."

"I'm not asking you to help her make decisions. I just hope you can give her some appropriate advice like you did today. After all, Jingjing has always grown up in a greenhouse. She doesn't have a deep understanding of the words "human heart is treacherous."

Huo Beichen expressed his thoughts.

"That's not a problem. Jingjing is my good friend. Her happiness is very important to me. I also hope that she can be with Zhao Yu."

Mu Ningxi agreed with Huo Beichen's idea.

"Based on your understanding of them, do you think they will really be happy together?" One is his good brother and the other is his cousin. Huo Beichen certainly hopes that the two can be together.

But if Jingjing continues to reject Zhao Yu like this, Huo Beichen doesn't know whether it is right or wrong to force the two of them together.

"Of course, considering Jingjing's personality, Zhao Yu is the most suitable person for her, but she hasn't discovered it yet." Mu Ningxi replied with a smile.
