The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 736: A Minor Grievance

Chapter 736: A Minor Grievance

"I didn't abandon you, I just..."

Li Chenxu didn't know how to explain. He didn't want Mu Xiaoyu to know about that matter, but he also didn't want to see Mu Xiaoyu looking so vulnerable and scared.

Especially when he came in, he didn't even dare to think about it too much.

"Go away, I don't want to talk to you, let go of me!"

Mu Xiaoyu lingered in Li Chenxu's embrace, but she hadn't forgotten how resolute he had been when he left. She didn't want to reconcile with Li Chenxu so quickly, otherwise, if something like this happened again, he would definitely bully her again!

"Xiaoyu, it's my fault. You can hit me or scold me, but please don't be angry. I really didn't mean to abandon you before. You know how I feel about you, so how could I really do something like abandoning you?"

Li Chenxu hurriedly explained that if he wasn't afraid that Mu Xiaoyu would escape if he let go of her, he would have knelt down in front of her to prove his determination.

"I won't believe you anymore, you're just lying to me!"

"No, I really didn't. Xiaoyu, what will it take for you to believe me?"

Li Chenxu loosened his grip on Mu Xiaoyu slightly, increasing the distance between them. He looked at Mu Xiaoyu, his eyes filled with anxiety.

Afraid that she would soften her heart, Mu Xiaoyu didn't even look at him. She lowered her head and said softly, "Then take me out with you, and I'll forgive you for now."

"Didn't you refuse to go out with me before? Why are you willing now?"

"Tell me why!"

Mu Xiaoyu looked up and glared at him fiercely. Didn't he understand such a simple truth?

If she weren't afraid of leaving him, why would she have gone out!

The more Mu Xiaoyu thought about it, the more wronged she felt, and the more she felt that Li Chenxu was utterly wicked. She made up her mind that if Li Chenxu hesitated even slightly later, this time, she would absolutely not forgive him as easily as before!

Actually, Li Chenxu's sudden return this time was because he wanted to take Mu Xiaoyu out with him. However, he was still worried that Mu Xiaoyu wouldn't be able to adapt immediately after taking her out, and her mood might worsen, which was definitely not the effect he wanted.

Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's attitude, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Without hesitation, he took Mu Xiaoyu's hand and kissed it: "I understand. I came back to take you out. But let's make it clear first, you can't come into the police station with me. You can only wait for me in the car."

This was the limit of what Li Chenxu could do. If Mu Xiaoyu went in with him, she would easily find out the truth of the matter.

Mu Xiaoyu was clearly reluctant, but since Li Chenxu had come back to find her this time, it wouldn't hurt to stay in the car for a while.

So she nodded perfunctorily: "Okay then, I won't go in this time, but not in the future!"

"Okay, you can go in as many times as you want from now on."

Seeing that Mu Xiaoyu was no longer angry, Li Chenxu immediately teased her. As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Xiaoyu's eyebrows shot up: "What are you saying! What do you mean I can go in as many times as I want! Who wants to go to a place like the police station more than once!"

"It was my fault."

Li Chenxu obediently admitted his mistake, looking incredibly well-behaved.

Mu Xiaoyu didn't want to waste any more time. Seeing how well-behaved Li Chenxu was, she snorted and said, "Let's go. If this continues, we don't know how much more time we'll waste."

"Okay, then I'll hold your hand."

Li Chenxu nodded, and as he spoke, he reached out to take Mu Xiaoyu's hand, but Mu Xiaoyu dodged him.

The other person glared at him and muttered under their breath, "Don't be so clingy in public!"

These words left Li Chenxu speechless. Actually, he wasn't a particularly clingy person outside. He had thought that Mu Xiaoyu was feeling insecure right now, and holding her hand might make her feel better. He never expected Mu Xiaoyu to say such a thing about him.

He was both amused and exasperated, but not angry. He still held Mu Xiaoyu's hand and said, "Just pretend I'm sticky."

Mu Xiaoyu is always saying one thing and meaning another. Even if she says something, he can't believe her completely. Otherwise, if he gets scared, he'll be the one who suffers in the end.

As expected, this time Mu Xiaoyu did not struggle when Li Chenxu held her hand. She let Li Chenxu hold her hand, and from an angle where he could not see, the corners of her mouth even turned up a little, obviously in a good mood.

Lin Zhu, who was waiting outside for Li Chenxu to come out, had no idea what had happened that made someone like Li Chenxu so anxious to rush back. Unexpectedly, he came out with Mu Xiaoyu in a short while.

The two were chatting and laughing, clearly in a good mood.

This scene made Lin Zhu sigh inwardly. He suddenly remembered a long time ago, before Li Chenxu met Mu Xiaoyu.

At that time, Li Chenxu was still very young, in the prime of his life, but he was mature beyond his years, rarely smiled, and was as aloof as outsiders said.

However, all of this changed after meeting Mu Xiaoyu.

If he hadn't been by Li Chenxu's side for so many years, he would never have imagined that someone like Li Chenxu would like a woman so much.

As people said before, even the most powerful man is no different from an ordinary person once he falls in love.

Moreover, the less likely a man is to fall in love with someone before, the more easily he will fall deeply in love with that person; Li Chenxu is the best example of this.

The two, unaware of Lin Zhu's complicated expression, got into the car one after the other.

After getting into the car, Li Chenxu handed the tablet to Mu Xiaoyu and said, "This is one of the hotels I had my eye on before. I finally chose this one. Take a look and see if it's something you like. If you don't, we can find another one."

Both Li Chenxu and Assistant Lin were impeccable in their work efficiency. Mu Xiaoyu took the tablet and, after a quick glance, knew it was the style she liked.

"This one is fine, I... An'an should like it."

Actually, it was her own preference, especially since the hotel had a somewhat girlish style, with large areas of dusty pink, which was Mu Xiaoyu's current favorite color. Looking at the hotel's decor, she couldn't help but steal glances, and even looked forward to the day of An'an's full moon celebration.

Li Chenxu saw the little bit of expectation on Mu Xiaoyu's face and couldn't help but chuckle softly. He reached out and pulled Mu Xiaoyu into his arms: "If you like, we can go to the hotel later and have a meal there, or stay there tonight. Anyway, An'an is being taken care of, so you don't have to worry."
