Mu Ningxi's habit of being cautious and careful in doing things comes from her father.

Speaking of this, Mu Ningxi thought of what her father taught her when she was a child, and couldn't help feeling sad. In this world, there would never be anyone else who would care for her as much as her father did.

"Since you think so, have you asked anyone to investigate?" Following Mu Ningxi's words, Huo Beichen asked step by step.

It was rare that she was willing to say so much in front of him, and Huo Beichen didn't want to let go of this opportunity that had finally come.

Even if there is no love between the two of them, as Huo Beichen's wife, he does not want to see Mu Ningxi confused about anything. As long as he can help her solve it, Huo Beichen will never hesitate.

Moreover, Huo Beichen felt more and more that he did have feelings for Mu Ningxi.

Hearing Huo Beichen's question, Mu Ningxi nodded helplessly, and then responded: "How could I not have asked someone to investigate? Moreover, over the years, I have been looking for opportunities to contact people that my parents knew before, hoping to find some clues from them."

"But ever since the Mu family determined that my parents embezzled public funds, those who were familiar with them before are unwilling to meet me, as if I were some kind of monster."

"Even if there were one or two people who couldn't save face and agreed to meet me, they all advised me not to think too much. They said that my parents' death was an accident."

When Mu Ningxi said this, the expression on her face became more depressed.

But even after saying this, Mu Ningxi did not mention Zhao Ming, nor did she say that the other party was currently looking for someone who knew about the car accident in Country S.

It is better to be safe than sorry. This was a catchphrase that her father often taught Mu Ningxi when he was alive. When she was not sure what Huo Beichen thought about the matter, Mu Ningxi did not want to expose all her cards to Huo Beichen.

"Maybe those people are unaware of the car accident, that's why they advised you like that." Seeing that Mu Ningxi was in a low mood, Huo Beichen spoke to comfort her.

Huo Beichen's words made Mu Ningxi feel better. She nodded again and said frankly, "It's possible. The area where my parents had the car accident was quite remote, and there really weren't many people who had seen the scene."

At this point, Mu Ningxi paused, sighed, and continued, "I haven't been able to find any strong evidence. Sometimes, I even suspect that I am just imagining things."

"After all, when my parents had the accident, my grandfather sent people to investigate, but the results of the investigation showed that my parents did die in the car accident because of an accident."

Speaking of grandpa, Mu Ningxi felt even worse. Grandpa had always been in good health, so how could he die from a cold?

Sometimes, Mu Ningxi even suspected that her grandfather's death was intentional, and the only people who could do such a thing could be Mu Yuande and his wife.

After Mu Ningxi's father passed away, her grandfather did not hand over Mu's to Mu Yuande, but stepped down himself and became the president of Mu's.

Mu Yuande became the president of Mu Group just after his grandfather passed away. It is not difficult to see that his grandfather’s death was most beneficial to Mu Yuande.

There is still no clue about the death of my parents. Even if Mu Ningxi had three heads and six arms, he can't get away alone to investigate the cause of my grandfather's death.

"Huo Beichen, do you think I am really overthinking and always thinking that someone is going to harm our family?" Without expressing her suspicion about her grandfather's death, Mu Ningxi turned her head, looked at Huo Beichen, and asked.

"Why do you think so? It's normal for you to have doubts and investigate. Sometimes, a person's sixth sense is very important. Ning Xi, don't deny your feelings."

Looking at Mu Ningxi, Huo Beichen shook his head slightly and replied.

After hearing his words, Mu Ningxi nodded thoughtfully and said softly: "Indeed, if you have any doubts, you should check them out and don't leave yourself with regrets."

Just when Huo Beichen was about to speak to encourage Mu Ningxi, he heard her continue, "I think so, but after so many years of investigation, there is still no evidence to prove my sixth sense. This feeling of having the will but not being able to do anything is really not pleasant."

"Do you need my help?" Upon hearing this, Huo Beichen took the initiative to ask.

Mu Ningxi shook her head and denied Huo Beichen's request, "Not for now. I want to find out the truth about this matter myself. When I need your help, I will definitely not be polite."

"I believe you have the ability." Staring at Mu Ningxi, Huo Beichen said without hesitation.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Master, Madam, dinner is ready. Please come downstairs to eat." At this time, Aunt Qin's voice was heard outside the door.

After instructing the kitchen to prepare dinner, Aunt Qin waited and waited, but the two men did not come down. So she risked being scolded and went upstairs in person to urge them to come.

Hearing Aunt Qin's voice, Mu Ningxi said softly to Huo Beichen, "I was so busy talking to you just now that I forgot that I hadn't had dinner yet. Let's go down quickly, otherwise Aunt Qin will be very worried."

Huo Beichen nodded, put on his pants, and walked out of the bedroom with Mu Ningxi.

At the dining table, both of them adhered to the good habit of "not talking while eating" and ate the food on the table quietly.

Near the end, Mu Ningxi's cell phone next to her rang.

After picking it up and taking a look, Mu Ningxi quickly answered the phone: "Hello, Mr. Liu."

"Director Mu, I hope I didn't disturb your rest by calling you so late." Liu Xiwen's cheerful voice came from the other end of the line.

"Of course not. It's still early. How could I go to bed so early?" Mu Ningxi answered with a smile after checking the time on her phone. It was 10 o'clock in the evening.

"Director Mu, you should not have forgotten that you promised to accompany me to the appointment?" After hearing Mu Ningxi's answer, Liu Xiwen also asked with a smile on the other end of the phone.

After Liu Xiwen reminded her, Mu Ningxi remembered that she had promised Liu Xiwen at his party that she would accompany him to Director Li Gang's birthday party. She quickly responded:

"How dare I forget Mr. Liu's instructions? Mr. Liu, when is Director Li's birthday party?"

"It's 6 o'clock tomorrow night. I wanted to call Director Mu a long time ago, but I had too many things to do and forgot about it. Fortunately, I remembered it now, so I called Director Mu so late to inform him. I hope Director Mu will not blame Liu for being reckless."

After hearing what Liu Xiwen said, Mu Ningxi felt unhappy in her heart. She had to attend the banquet tomorrow night, but he only notified her at this time. It really showed no sincerity at all.

But considering that the other party was a big shot in the entertainment industry, Mu Ningxi could only suppress her dissatisfaction and agreed with a smile: "Boss Liu is a noble man who forgets things easily. How could I blame Boss Liu? It's just that I have to go to work tomorrow, so I can only trouble Boss Liu to wait for me to get off work before going together."

"It doesn't matter. It won't affect Director Mu's work. I will go to the Huo Group to pick up Director Mu at 5: tomorrow afternoon. It will be just in time." Knowing the time when Huo gets off work, Liu Xiwen told him his plans.

"Okay!" Mu Ningxi had no objection when she heard Liu Xiwen's arrangement.

"Director Mu, what does Liu need me to prepare, such as a dress, makeup, etc.?" Hearing Mu Ningxi's ready agreement, Liu Xiwen continued to ask.

"There's no need to trouble Mr. Liu. I can handle it myself." Mu Ningxi politely declined, not wanting to owe Liu Xiwen a favor.

This time, although she was said to be accompanying Liu Xiwen to the banquet, it was actually giving Mu Ningxi an opportunity to meet more people in the entertainment industry.

Being in charge of the entertainment section of Huo's company and getting to know more people in the entertainment industry are what Mu Ningxi needs to do. With such a good opportunity in front of her, how could Mu Ningxi let it go.

Besides, with Director Li Gang's current fame, those who are invited will have a certain weight in the entertainment industry. Being able to get to know these people will be of great benefit to Mu Ningxi's future work.

"Do you have any social events tomorrow?" After Mu Ningxi hung up the phone, Huo Beichen, who was sitting opposite her, asked.

Mu Ningxi nodded and briefly told Huo Beichen that she had agreed to accompany Liu Xiwen to the appointment.

"Liu Xiwen, why haven't I heard you mention this before?" After listening to Mu Ningxi's story, Huo Beichen frowned and asked.
