Chapter 1841: Capítulo 1841: Chapter 1844

“Thank you.” Xiaoxiao rarely put away her usual aggressive demeanor and said softly to Ye Hua.

Ye Hua just nodded, then lifted his head, standing straight behind Mu Xiaojiu.

After dinner, everyone gathered in the hall, getting ready to depart.

At this moment, Ning Anran also arrived.

“Glad I made it on time.”

Seeing everyone in the hall, ready to leave, Ning Anran lightly patted her chest with relief.

Before coming, she was truly worried that these people wouldn’t wait for her.

Baili Xia glanced at her indifferently, too lazy to respond.

No one here intended to wait for her; she just happened to arrive in time.

Not only Baili Xia, but others also didn’t respond to her.

Even Mu Ziying and Mu Ziqing, without any particular reason, didn’t wish to engage with Ning Anran.

After all, they’ve heard of this woman’s tactics, and deep down, they looked down on such a person.

Ning Anran noticed the lack of acknowledgment, a flicker of emotion crossing her eyes.

She walked up to Mu Xiaojiu and respectfully said, “Uncle.”

Mu Xiaojiu nodded slightly without speaking.

But his expression showed that he wasn’t particularly averse to Ning Anran.

This gave Ning Anran great courage; here, as long as Mu Xiaojiu accepted her, she could stay.

Everyone sat in the hall for a while before a servant hurried in.

“Mr. Xiaojiu, the cars are ready.”

Mu Xiaojiu nodded, stood up from the sofa, and started walking outside.

Seeing him move, everyone else quickly followed.

At the courtyard entrance, three black sedans were lined up.

Mu Lingchuan was the first to assist Zimo to the last car, opening the front passenger seat for him to sit.

Since Ye Hua was going to drive for Mu Xiaojiu, Nangong Xu was temporarily asked to look after Xiaoxiao.

Nangong Xu assessed the situation and naturally helped Xiaoxiao into Mu Lingchuan’s car.

Mu Xiaoyao looked at Baili Xia, wanting to say something.

But upon seeing Mu Xiaojiu already getting into the first car, he lowered his eyes in thought for two seconds before opening the driver’s seat of the second car and getting in.

Naturally, Mu Ziying and Mu Ziqing chose to stay with Mu Xiaoyao, and they quickly got into the car.

Outside the car, only Ye Hua was left holding the door, watching Baili Xia and Ning Anran.

Ning Anran really wanted to ride in Mu Xiaojiu’s car but worried that if she upset Mr. Xiaojiu and got kicked out, the trip would end prematurely.

Baili Xia was already headed towards Mu Xiaoyao’s car; traveling together, she certainly wanted to be with her Brother.

But before she could reach the car, Ning Anran suddenly dashed from beside her.

“Xiaxia, you better sit in Mr. Xiaojiu’s car.”

Before Baili Xia could react, Ning Anran quickly slipped inside and took a seat in the back.

Baili Xia was briefly frustrated, but despite disliking Ning Anran, for such a small matter, she wouldn’t bother fighting over it.

She glared at Ning Anran, then turned and got into Mu Xiaojiu’s car.

Only then did Ye Hua close the car door and return to the driver’s seat.

The three cars started simultaneously, heading out of the Mu Mansion.

Sitting in the back seat, Baili Xia was still dissatisfied, her expression unpleased.

Clearly, she was supposed to be with her Brother, yet was forcibly separated by Ning Anran.

None of this escaped Mu Xiaojiu’s notice; he knew what the girl was thinking.

Yet her thoughts caused a slight sting in his heart.

“What’s the matter, want to be in that car?”
