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

Hearing Cheng Jingjing's words, Mu Ningxi suddenly remembered the past incident of beating up Mu Xiner and her group in Tianlan Pavilion, and she began to think about revisiting the old place.

"Jingjing is right. I haven't been to Tianlan Pavilion for a long time. Since we have time today, why don't we go there and sit down together? It's not far from Tianlan Pavilion anyway. We can just take a walk there and digest the food after dinner."

Mu Ningxi followed Cheng Jingjing's words and asked.

With Mu Ningxi's seconding, Cheng Jingjing's request would definitely be agreed by Huo Beichen. Once Huo Beichen agreed, Zhao Yu would also have no objection.

However, to be on the safe side, Huo Beichen still let A Kun take the lead and go to Tianlan Pavilion to arrange everything.

When Huo Beichen and his group arrived at Tianlan Pavilion, the manager had already cleared the area around Huo Beichen's exclusive booth, so that no one would disturb Huo Beichen and his group.

Although he agreed to let them come over to play, Huo Beichen did not agree to let Cheng Jingjing go to the dance floor to dance. Cheng Jingjing could only sit disappointedly in the booth on the second floor, looking through the glass at the people dancing happily on the dance floor downstairs.

"Why, do you want to go downstairs and play?" Mu Ningxi moved to Cheng Jingjing and asked in a low voice.

Cheng Jingjing shook her head and said frankly: "I think about it, but I won't do it now."

The dance floor was full of all kinds of people, and Cheng Jingjing knew that she might be in danger if she went down.

"Jingjing, you are becoming more and more mature." Looking at Cheng Jingjing with admiration, Mu Ningxi felt that not only Huo Beichen had changed these days, but Cheng Jingjing had also changed.

Mu Ningxi felt even more that even she herself was slowly changing.

"Are you feeling a bit bored? Let's play poker." Seeing Cheng Jingjing's boredom, Mu Ningxi suggested.

Hearing Mu Ningxi say this, Zhao Yu immediately asked the waiter to bring a deck of cards.

"There are four of us, so we're going to play a game of running fast. Each of us will form a team and keep score. The one who loses the most will treat everyone at the next party."

Taking the cards from Zhao Yu's hand, Mu Ningxi explained how to play.

"Ning Xi, I feel like I'll be the one to treat next time." Ever since she was a child, Cheng Jingjing has never beaten Huo Beichen or Zhao Yu in running games.

"Don't be so unconfident about yourself. What if you get lucky today?" Mu Ningxi smiled and cheered Cheng Jingjing up.

Cheng Jingjing nodded. It was just a meal, so who was afraid of whom?

Mu Ningxi shuffled the cards, and several people quickly entered combat status.

As Cheng Jingjing said before, in the end, she lost the most, so the responsibility of treating everyone naturally fell on her.

Huo Beichen and Zhao Yu had a hunch that Cheng Jingjing would lose, but they were surprised by Mu Ningxi. They didn't expect Mu Ningxi to play so well and eventually become first place.

In Zhao Yu's memory, when they played the running game together, Huo Beichen always came in first. He didn't expect that the first place would be taken away by Mu Ningxi today.

"Ning Xi, I didn't expect you to play so well." After the end, Zhao Yu sincerely praised Mu Ningxi.

“When I was little, no one played with me, so I played by myself with a deck of cards. That’s when my skills improved.”

Talking about the past, Mu Ningxi no longer felt sad, but Huo Beichen, who was standing beside her, felt very uncomfortable listening to it.

Why should we shift everyone's mistakes onto the child? Besides, the people who made the mistakes back then might not have been Ning Xi's parents. Why should we let this little girl bear all this?

Huo Beichen had sent people to investigate everything about Mu Ningxi before, so he probably knew something about what had happened to her.

"Why doesn't anyone want to play with you?" After hearing Mu Ningxi say that, Cheng Jingjing asked tactlessly.

As soon as she asked the question, Huo Beichen rolled his eyes at her, and Cheng Jingjing was so scared that she dared not say a word.

"Because of my parents, everyone misunderstood me, but things have passed, and I won't think about what happened back then. People have to look forward, right?"

When talking about the past, Mu Ningxi looked calm.

Seeing her like this, Huo Beichen felt relieved.

After leaving Tianlan Pavilion, Huo Beichen sent someone to send Zhao Yu and the others home, while he and Mu Ningxi took A Kun's car back to Liyuan.

"You didn't have to treat Jingjing like that just now. She doesn't know what happened to me. Ignorance is not a crime. Besides, these things can't hurt me now."

Sitting in the car, Mu Ningxi complained to Huo Beichen.

"I know you are very strong, but I still don't want anyone to bring up the past in front of you and remind you of that experience."

Huo Beichen made no secret of his protection for Mu Ningxi.

"I won't think too much about what happened before. I just want to investigate what happened and give my parents justice. I believe they are definitely not the kind of people that the outside world has rumored them to be."

Looking at Huo Beichen, Mu Ningxi expressed what she was thinking at the moment.

"It will be soon. I believe we can find out the truth soon and give your parents justice." Huo Beichen vowed as he held Mu Ningxi in his arms.

Mu Ningxi nodded, snuggled in Huo Beichen's arms, and said no more.

The next morning, before Mu Ningxi got up, she received a call from Mu Wanzhen's assistant: "Miss, the old lady had a heart attack and is now in the hospital for emergency treatment. I can only contact you now. Can you come to the hospital?"

"Why didn't you contact Mu Yuande?" Mu Ningxi asked back, not understanding why Mu Wanzhen's assistant contacted her.

In terms of her relationship with Mu Wanzhen, how could she, Mu Ningxi, compare with Mu Yuande? Besides, even if she couldn't contact Mu Yuande, there was still Mu Xiner. When would it be her, Mu Ningxi's turn to step forward?

"Miss, I can't contact the second master. As for the second lady, the old lady fell ill this time because of her and the second wife. They will definitely not come to the hospital."

The assistant explained why he would contact Mu Ningxi.

After saying that, the assistant saw that Mu Ningxi didn't say anything, so he immediately added: "Miss, the old lady's condition is very critical this time. She has been pushed into the operating table. The hospital requires her immediate family members to come here."

"Let me think about it." Mu Ningxi said and immediately hung up the phone.

Holding the phone, Mu Ningxi sat on the bed thinking about the past, and she didn't even notice Huo Beichen coming in.

"You're distracted so early in the morning. What are you thinking about?" Sensing that something was wrong with Mu Ningxi, Huo Beichen walked up to her and asked softly.

"Huo Beichen, Mu Wanzhen's assistant just called and said that Mu Wanzhen is critically ill and hopes that I can go to the hospital. Do you think I should go?"

Hearing Huo Beichen's voice, Mu Ningxi seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, and she asked anxiously.

"Then do you want to go yourself?" Without directly answering Mu Ningxi's question, Huo Beichen asked back.
