Chapter 177 Accompany Me
Li Chenxu was already used to Liang Yi's occasional erratic behavior. Hearing Liang Yi's words, he merely glanced at him indifferently and asked, "Finished?"
Liang Yi rambled on and on, but in the end, Li Chenxu only said three words, leaving Liang Yi speechless.
In the end, when she realized that Li Chenxu was just like that, she immediately felt a bit amused and exasperated.
"Alright, alright, I'm a magnanimous young master, I won't hold it against you. It's still early, how about we go for a drink?"
Originally, Li Chenxu wanted to go straight home, but if he went back so soon, Mu Xiaoyu might become suspicious, which would be bad. So he hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
He had just nodded when his phone rang. Li Chenxu took out his phone and saw that the caller was none other than Mu Xiaoyu.
Without further hesitation, he made a gesture to Liang Yi and immediately answered the phone.
"Xiaoyu..."
"have you eaten?"
Mu Xiaoyu was clearly in a good mood on the other end of the phone. Her tone was slightly amused as she spoke to Li Chenxu, and her clear and charming voice instantly dispelled any ulterior motives in Li Chenxu's mind.
He gave a soft "hmm," his lips curving into a slight smile, and said gently, "And you? Have you eaten?"
"Not yet... When are you coming back?"
Mu Xiaoyu would never admit that she missed Li Chenxu after only an afternoon apart. She was, after all, a mature adult; if she said that, wouldn't it just be a way of saying she wanted Li Chenxu to come back and be with her as soon as possible?
She couldn't possibly say that out loud.
Even if she didn't say it directly, her words just now clearly expressed what she was thinking.
Li Chenxu's originally smiling lips now held a hint of amusement in his eyes.
"I'll be right back and have dinner with you."
"Really? Will it interfere with your plans?"
"No, nothing is more important than your matter..."
After hanging up the phone with Mu Xiaoyu, Li Chenxu had a warm smile on his face. Combined with the sound of his voice when he was talking to Mu Xiaoyu, Liang Yi looked like he had seen a ghost.
He had always known how important Mu Xiaoyu was to Li Chenxu. But seeing Li Chenxu treat Mu Xiaoyu with such extreme tenderness was something he had never seen before.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that Li Chenxu, who was so cold and aloof to the point of being terrifying, would one day show such an expression!
It's really... terrifying...
"I'm going back now. We can drink next time."
Li Chenxu's words instantly pulled Liang Yi back to reality. He nodded, not saying no, but his gaze towards Li Chenxu grew increasingly strange. Finally, he couldn't help himself and pulled Li Chenxu aside to ask, "Chenxu, is getting married... really that good..."
"You'll know after you try it."
Li Chenxu didn't answer Liang Yi directly, but the smile in his eyes betrayed his emotions. He wanted to go back quickly to have dinner with Mu Xiaoyu, so after saying this, he didn't say anything more, greeted Liang Yi, and got into his car and left, leaving Liang Yi alone in the exhaust fumes, looking incredulous.
Li Chenxu wanted to get home early to have dinner with Mu Xiaoyu, so he told the driver to drive faster, shortening the ten-minute journey by half. When he got home, as soon as he opened the door, Mu Xiaoyu rushed out and clung to Li Chenxu.
Fortunately, Li Chenxu reacted quickly, otherwise Mu Xiaoyu would definitely have fallen.
Li Chenxu hugged Mu Xiaoyu tightly and gave her a reproachful look: "You were so reckless. What if I hadn't caught you and you had fallen?"
"Impossible, I believe you will catch me."
Mu Xiaoyu wrapped her arms around Li Chenxu's neck, tilted her head back, and her bright eyes seemed to hold the entire universe in them, shining so brightly that Li Chenxu's heart softened even more.
Yes, he will definitely catch Mu Xiaoyu, just like he will always protect her and bring her happiness...
The two did not stay outside for long before going inside. The maid had already set out the dishes, and they sat down directly at the dining table.
"What exactly does your dad want you to go back for?"
Mu Xiaoyu was starving, waiting for Li Chenxu to come back so they could have dinner together. She was asking him questions while eating her food with her head down.
Upon hearing this, Li Chenxu paused in his act of peeling shrimp for Mu Xiaoyu. He didn't answer Mu Xiaoyu immediately, but instead glanced at her, who was enjoying her meal. A subtle, unfathomable look flashed in his deep eyes before he slowly said, "It's just some company business. You know, the Li Group has recently entered the entertainment industry, and he's worried I might not handle it well..."
These words were impeccable, leaving Mu Xiaoyu with no reason to doubt or question them.
Hearing Li Chenxu say this, Mu Xiaoyu seemed to have no doubts whatsoever. Instead, she pouted and said, "What's there to worry about? You're so capable; any decision you make will be correct."
Mu Xiaoyu's words were actually a slap in the face to herself. Before she reconciled with Li Chenxu, no matter what Li Chenxu said or did, Mu Xiaoyu always thought he was extremely stupid. But now, in such a short time, things have turned out this way.
Mu Xiaoyu herself may not have realized this yet, but Li Chenxu certainly has.
Thinking of what Mu Xiaoyu was like before, and then thinking about her now, Li Chenxu couldn't help but want to laugh.
However, in order not to upset Mu Xiaoyu, he forced himself to suppress his impulse. He coughed lightly and said modestly, "It's only a partial decision. Sometimes I make mistakes too."
Mu Xiaoyu didn't care what Li Chenxu said; in her heart now, everything Li Chenxu did was good.
Seeing another peeled shrimp fall into her bowl, Mu Xiaoyu quickly said to Li Chenxu, "Okay, stop peeling shrimp for me, have some too..."
"It's okay, I'm not very hungry."
Knowing that Li Chenxu had just returned from the Li family's main residence and must have eaten, Mu Xiaoyu nodded without saying anything more. As for Li Chenxu's statement, it was entirely because after what had happened, he had no appetite at all.
