"What do you mean? How can I laugh happily when I am with others?" Mu Ningxi was a little confused by Huo Beichen's accusation.

Ever since getting her marriage certificate with Huo Beichen, Mu Ningxi basically went back and forth between the company and home. Even if she had social engagements, she would leave very early and would not stay for long.

Is he talking about the fact that I accompanied Liu Xiwen to attend Li Gang’s birthday party tonight?

But I had told him about this before, and he didn't raise any objections. Not only that, he also said that such an opportunity was rare and asked me to seize it and find opportunities to interact with more people in the entertainment industry to create opportunities for the smooth development of my future work.

Huo Beichen wouldn't be trying to settle a score with me later. He was clearly not happy that I was Liu Xiwen's female companion and was accompanying him to that kind of occasion, but he still pretended to be magnanimous on the surface?

But considering Huo Beichen's personality, he would not be such a two-faced person.

Based on Mu Ningxi's understanding of Huo Beichen during this period, she did not think that Huo Beichen would be the kind of shameless person who said one thing and did another.

"At Li Gang's birthday party, weren't you and Jingjing laughing happily?" Hearing Mu Ningxi's question, Huo Beichen told her the video he had seen before.

What's wrong with laughing happily with Jingjing? Huo Beichen wouldn't be jealous of this, right?

Mu Ningxi found Huo Beichen's questioning funny.

"Huo Beichen, Jingjing is your cousin. I get along well with her. Isn't it a good thing? I don't understand why you mind about it." Mu Ningxi responded with a smile.

At this point, Mu Ningxi paused for half a second, and asked in disbelief, "Are you jealous of Jingjing?"

"Do I look like such a boring person to be jealous of something like this?" Upon hearing Mu Ningxi's question, Huo Beichen immediately denied it.

Mu Ningxi felt a little uncomfortable when she heard Huo Beichen's words to excuse himself.

He is a big boss, how could he be jealous of you? Mu Ningxi, what are you thinking about with your stupid head?

"You're not bored, I'm bored, okay? I'm worried that someone might be unhealthy if they don't eat dinner, so I'm trying to persuade them to eat, but they don't appreciate it."

Realizing this, Mu Ningxi's tone of voice became a little bad. As she spoke, she glanced at the food on the coffee table that had already become a little cold, and stood up to leave.

Seeing that Mu Ningxi wanted to leave, Huo Beichen put his hands on her shoulders and said in a tone that could not be denied: "Why are you leaving? I haven't finished what I want to say."

Dissatisfied with Huo Beichen's tough attitude, Mu Ningxi struggled desperately.

Unfortunately, the force that Huo Beichen put on her shoulders was too great. After struggling for a few times in vain, Mu Ningxi had to give up.

Seeing that Mu Ningxi was no longer making a fuss about leaving, Huo Beichen picked her up from his arms.

Just when Mu Ningxi didn't know what the other party was going to do and was at a loss, Huo Beichen had already put her steadily on the ground.

"Wait." After looking at Mu Ningxi whose face was flushed red, Huo Beichen said something and walked straight towards the bookcase opposite.

Mu Ningxi looked at Huo Beichen's actions suspiciously, not sure what he was trying to do.

A few minutes later, Huo Beichen turned around holding a jewelry box.

Returning to Mu Ningxi, Huo Beichen opened the jewelry box, took out a diamond ring, and put it on the ring finger of Mu Ningxi's right hand without any explanation.

At this time, Mu Ningxi had been attracted by the diamond ring and had no intention of resisting Huo Beichen's actions.

The design style of this ring must be the teacher's. I didn't expect Huo Beichen to be so honored that he could ask his retired teacher to design jewelry for him again.

As Ferris's favorite disciple, Mu Ningxi recognized at a glance that the ring that Huo Beichen took out was designed by Ferris himself.

"Don't you like it?" After helping Mu Ningxi put on the ring, Huo Beichen asked worriedly when he saw that she did not show the expected joy as she looked at the ring in deep thought.

This is the work of a world-famous jewelry designer. From its appearance, you can tell that it is extraordinary. If it were any other woman, she would have been overjoyed. But why is there no joy on her face?

Not only was there no joy, but there seemed to be a little shock.

Can't she accept the ring I gave her?

Huo Beichen asked while observing the changes in Mu Ningxi's expression.

Thinking that Mu Ningxi might not like the ring he gave her, Huo Beichen's originally excited mood gradually began to feel lost.

"Of course not. I like such a beautiful ring. I just don't know why you were able to ask Master Ferris to design it for you personally. As far as I know, he announced his retirement a long time ago. Why is he breaking his word and coming out again now?"

Hearing the displeasure in Huo Beichen's tone, Mu Ningxi hurriedly denied it and asked about the doubts in her heart.

After Ferris closed the mountain, Mu Ningxi once wanted him to do her a small favor, but was ruthlessly rejected.

Mu Ningxi couldn't understand, could it be that Huo Beichen's reputation was greater than hers as his disciple? The person she couldn't even invite was able to agree to Huo Beichen's request and design for him personally.

"You know a lot. What else do you know about Master Ferres?" Hearing Mu Ningxi say that, Huo Beichen's eyes flashed with approval. His wife was really a treasure and knew so much. Huo Beichen asked curiously.

Worried that the more she talked, the easier it would be to reveal her true identity, Mu Ningxi pushed all the blame onto Wang Luyao: "How could I know so much? These were all told to me by my best friend. She is a painter, so she naturally knows some gossips in the art circle that others don't know."

"When are you going to make an appointment to meet your best friend? We have been married for so long, but I have never met your friend." Huo Beichen made an invitation when he heard Mu Ningxi mention her best friend.

Mu Ningxi nodded and agreed obediently: "I don't have many friends. Lu Yao is my best friend. She also said before that she wanted to meet you. I will arrange the time."

Huo Beichen nodded towards Mu Ningxi, having no objection to her statement.

Then, Huo Beichen turned his gaze to the box in his hand. Inside the box, there was a men's ring.

After taking a look, Huo Beichen raised his head again and stared at Mu Ningxi.

After thinking for a few seconds, Mu Ningxi reacted quickly, picked up the men's ring in the box, and put it on Huo Beichen.

While putting them on, Mu Ningxi asked, "Why did you suddenly think of getting this pair of rings?"

"After being married for so long, I always felt that something was missing between us. The other day, I saw a short advertisement and realized that it was a pair of rings that I was missing. That's when I decided to do this."

Looking at the ring on Mu Ningxi's hand, Huo Beichen replied with satisfaction.

"Actually, there is no need for us to do all this. After all, we..." Huo Beichen's words made Mu Ningxi feel good, but she still objectively pointed out the actual problems of both parties.

"I don't want to hear any more unpleasant words." Huo Beichen interrupted Mu Ningxi before she could finish.

Startled by his sudden loud voice, Mu Ningxi instantly closed her mouth and looked at Huo Beichen motionlessly.

"I did all this just to reassure you. I wanted you to understand that I am determined to spend the rest of my life with you. Why can't you understand my painstaking efforts?"

Holding Mu Ningxi's hand tightly in his palm, Huo Beichen said a little frustratedly.

Seeing the frustration on the face of Huo Beichen, who was always aloof and indifferent, Mu Ningxi didn't know what to do for a moment.

Staring at Huo Beichen, Mu Ningxi opened her mouth several times, but no sound came out.

Faced with Huo Beichen's good intentions, Mu Ningxi didn't know what to say.

If it were her, and she tried her best to please someone but failed to get the other person's recognition, she might also feel frustrated.

Thinking back to everything Huo Beichen had done for her during this period, Mu Ningxi felt regretful in her heart. She really shouldn't have said such disheartening words just now.

"I know that Meng Tianbo's matter has caused you great harm, but I am not Meng Tianbo. I, Huo Beichen, will definitely keep my promise. I said that I would spend the rest of my life with you, and I will never break my promise. Why are you unwilling to give me, and each other, a chance?"

Seeing that Mu Ningxi did not respond, Huo Beichen continued to ask.

"I, I admit that I am very happy and relaxed during this time with you, but because of this, I am even more afraid. I am afraid that everything is just a mirage. I am afraid that after waking up from the dream, everything, including you, is illusory."

Listening to Huo Beichen's heartfelt words, Mu Ningxi finally spoke out her thoughts.

"Silly girl!" After listening to Mu Ningxi's confession, Huo Beichen gently held her in his arms and whispered softly.
