Chapter 1817

“If you can accept her, I won’t trouble Ning Anran anymore.”

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t want to say much; he wasn’t interested in trivial matters like Ning Anran.

His coldness towards Ning Anran was purely because he didn’t like her character.

As for the things she had done for him before, he had paid her sufficiently.

Money and goods were exchanged fairly; neither owed the other.

“I can let her stay in the Mu Mansion, I won’t give her any trouble,” he said.

Mu Xuri laughed a few times, his joy was evident.

The purpose of this talk was achieved; it was unexpectedly easy to accomplish.

It seems indeed that Baili Xia is very important to Mu Xiaojiu.

Starting with her made things much more effective.

Their thoughts aligned, and they started talking more, no longer as cold as before.

As the atmosphere in the room changed, it began to warm up gradually.

Wen Yu seemed affected too; she smiled and gently said, “Seeing you brothers resolve your differences makes me truly happy.”

When she spoke, it seemed she had already forgotten she had just returned.

Originally, she was really angry with Mu Xiaojiu.

He was so indifferent and ungrateful, completely disregarding past kindness.

However, when she saw him, her heart softened, and she no longer hated him as much.

“Jiu, don’t send me away anymore in the future.”

“You don’t know how lonely I am outside, how much I miss you all.” She sighed softly, “If there’s anything, let’s discuss it as a family.

Anger will only hurt feelings.”

Mu Xiaojiu remained expressionless, only saying indifferently, “As long as you don’t trouble that girl, I won’t mind.”

Ultimately, it was because of Baili Xia.

She was the only inviolable boundary for him.

Mu Xuri glanced sideways at Wen Yu, a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

“No, no, in the future, everyone must get along well,” he tried to smooth things over.

This woman, why does she always mess things up?

Couldn’t she see how important Baili Xia was to this kid by now?

What on earth was she thinking?

Wen Yu noticed the change in his expression and quickly lowered her head, ceasing to speak.

Mu Xuri didn’t want to stay here any longer, afraid that the more he said, the more mistakes he would make, and that he would provoke Mu Xiaojiu, affecting future plans.

He smiled and said, “I had a great chat with Jiu today, but I have some matters to deal with over there, so I should head back.”

He gave Wen Yu a look, and she immediately came over to push his wheelchair.

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t stand up, he only spoke indifferently, “I’m also busy, so I won’t see you out.”

After speaking, he really lowered his head and began to go through the documents.

Mu Xuri signaled to Wen Yu, and she immediately pushed him out of the study.

In the hall, Baili Xia and Mu Xiaoyao, even the Mu Ziqing sisters, were all gone.

Only Ning Anran was there, sitting alone on the sofa, waiting for them.

Seeing the two of them come out, Ning Anran immediately stood up and greeted them, “Uncle, Mrs.

Wen.”

“Mm.” Mu Xuri nodded, finding this young girl more agreeable the more he looked at her.

He had been away from the Mu Mansion for so many years and had no feelings for the Mu Ziqing and Mu Ziying sisters.

Coming back, he found this Ning Anran to be the most heartwarming.

“Jiu has agreed to be good to you in the future, so serve him well from now on,” Mu Xuri said.

Ning Anran’s heart trembled, a rush of joy surged through her: “I know, I will definitely serve Mr.

Xiaojiu well, definitely!”

“Let’s head back first.” Wen Yu pushed Mu Xuri’s wheelchair.

Ning Anran immediately went over and took the wheelchair from her hands, “Mrs. Wen, let me do it.”
