Chapter Forty-Eight Thank you, for giving me a home
disk and a business card to Mu Xing. "This is a backup of that video segment. Take it back and see if there are any clues. If you need any help, just contact the person on the business card."Mùxīng t...Shen Lu, hiding in the shadows, saw Mu Xing and He Chao seriously selecting sunscreen. Thinking they wouldn't leave so soon, he didn't keep staring. He took out his phone, edited what had just happened into a message, and sent it to Fu Lingxiao.
When he finished sending his message and looked up, he suddenly realized that the two people were gone!
"Holy crap! Where's everyone!"
Shen Lue hurried to look for him.
At this time, He Chao had already taken Mu Xing and left the mall through the nearest door. A car they had booked on their phones was waiting outside the door. As soon as they got in the car, the driver immediately started the engine.
The car sped away, Mu Xing looked back nervously, seeing no one following, she let out a sigh of relief and smiled, "Brother A Chao, you're amazing!"
He Chao Yang smirked, "It's not that I'm amazing, it's just that Shen Lue was distracted."
"Ah Chao, brother, I can finally go home and see you!"
Mu Xing was so excited, she had been waiting for this day for twelve years!
Maybe it was homesickness, the closer she got to home, the more her excitement faded and she started feeling afraid instead.
She bit her lip, nervously twisting her fingers. Suddenly, a warm hand landed on hers, taking her hand in its palm.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here for you."
Mu Xing looked at He Chao and nodded forcefully, "Yes."
At this time, the car stopped.
He Chao got out of the car first, standing by the car door with a slight smile: "We're home."
Mu Xing took a deep breath and crawled out of the car.
She thought she would see ruins.
What came into view was a complete two-story villa. The walls were a pale yellow, the roof red tiles, and the garden in front was filled with gardenias, Mom's favorite flower.
All of this, was exactly the same as the home she remembered.
Mu Xing's eyes were filled with disbelief, her gaze fixed on the house before her, unable to blink.
"Let's go in."
He Chao grasped Mu Xing's hand and led her inside.
Mu Xing walked all the way in, and bits and pieces of childhood memories gradually recovered their colors and became clear.
The wisteria swing in the garden, the white rabbit sticker on the door, the crystal chandelier in the living room, the colorful vase on the coffee table, and the painting of her family on the wall...
Tears welled up in her eyes as she gazed around, taking in every detail of the room. It was filled with memories, each one precious to her.
He stood beside her and said, "This is based on my recovered memory. Take a look and tell me where anything is different. I'll try my best to restore it."
Before his words could even fade, a petite figure crashed into his arms, clinging to him tightly.
"A-Chao gege, thank you."
Mu Xing buried her face deeply in He Chao's chest, "Thank you for everything you've done for me. Thank you for making me feel like I have a home."
"Silly girl."
He gently hugged the little girl in his arms, smiling softly, "As long as your brother is here, you'll always have a home."
"Mhm."
"Alright, I'll take you to your room."
He Chao patted Mu Xing's back, released her arm, and led her to the bedroom.
In the
powder-pink bedroom, a white princess bed with gauze drapes to the floor, topped with numerous dolls, overflowing with girlish charm. On the desk by the window, there were ten or so exquisitely crafted gift boxes of various sizes neatly stacked.
"These, are the birthday gifts I've prepared for you over the past twelve years."
Ge Chao smiled and looked at Mu Xing, "Do you want to open it and take a look"
Okay.
Mu Xing opened the gift boxes one by one according to age. There was a limited edition doll, a crystal music box, a pretty little dress, and a custom-made bracelet...
Each box contains a card with a heartfelt blessing.
When Mu Xing opened the gift box that was carefully prepared for her 18th birthday, her eyes lit up. Inside lay a pair of high heels adorned with diamonds; they glittered in the sunlight, resembling the crystal shoes of a princess from a fairy tale.
"Wow! It's so beautiful!"
He Chao looked at Mu Xing softly, "This is an 18th birthday gift. Every girl should have a pair of high heels."
"Thank you, Brother A-Zhao."
Mu Xing carefully repackaged all the unwrapped presents and raised her little face to look at He Chao, "Let's go."
If I disappear for too long, Brother Shen Lu will start to suspect something.
Stepping out of the villa, He Chaozhao locked the door and placed the key in Mu Xing's palm. "If you ever miss home, you can always come back and have a look,"
"Good."
Mu Xing carefully put away the key and took one last reluctant glance.
They took a taxi back to the shopping mall and entered the supermarket.
When Shen Lue found the two of them, they were strolling leisurely, one pushing a shopping cart piled high with goods.
Finally found it!
Shen Lue let out a big sigh of relief. He didn't dare blink for the next few moments, afraid he'd lose track again.
After leaving the supermarket, He Chao put the things he bought into the trunk and asked Mu Xing, "The Imperial Capital has changed a lot in these twelve years. Do you want me to take you for a stroll"
"Sounds good!"
Mu Xing also wanted to familiarize herself with the road again, and she also wanted to spend more time with Brother Acheng.
Then He Chao drove Mu Xing around the city, and they ended up staying out until night.
It was already dinner time, Mu Xingjian said hurriedly, "Brother Achao, I have to go home for dinner."
He Chao said, "Let's eat outside. Just tell Mr. Fu."
Mu Xing thought for a moment, "That's good too."
Welcome to the Royal Gardens.
The man sat on the sofa, his eyes darting frequently to the door. It was dark now, how could that little girl still not be back
He took out his phone, just about to send Shen Lue a message to inquire about the situation, when a WeChat message popped up.
"Uncle, I'm having dinner with Dr. He outside tonight!"
Fu Lingxiao frowned, was this little girl familiar with He Chao
We've only known each other for a few days, and you're already eating alone
He quickly typed into the chat box: "Be right back."
After thinking it over, I deleted and re-edited: "Got it."
He hit the send button, tossed his phone onto the sofa, and got up to walk into the dining room.
Wu Guanjia glanced back at him and asked, "Young Master, has Xiaomu Xing not returned yet"
"Well, He Chao had dinner outside."
Fu Lingxiao sat down at the dinner table and had only a few bites before his eyebrows furrowed, "Who cooked tonight's meal Why does it taste different"
"Still Lao Jiang, huh" Wu the butler asked. "How is the taste"
"One's cooking skills have noticeably declined."
Fu Lingxiao put down his chopsticks, glanced at the little girl's seat, and got up and left.
When Wu, the house manager, saw this, he covered his mouth and chuckled: "It's not that the food tastes different, it's because Xiao Mu Xing isn't at home."
After laughing, he worried again.
The last time Dr. He stayed here to take care of Mu Xing, he noticed that Dr. He was particularly attentive to Mu Xing. Today, they even ate together.
Could he have fallen for Xiaomuxing too
That's not possible!
Little Mu Xing belongs to the young master!oenix eyes already clouded with gloom.Yurong knew this man's temper. Once he made up his mind, no one could sway him. She stopped persuading him and simply said, "Rest assured, I won't see the girl ag...
