And compared to how good her uncle had been to her, a single stamp didn't amount to much.She originally wanted to refuse, but thinking about how her uncle had mentioned disliking bein...Mu Xing carried the empty fruit plate downstairs and held it in front of Wu Guanjia, a smug expression on her face. "Guanjia Bo, look, Xiaoxiao and I finished all the fruits!"

Butler Wu incredulously took the empty fruit dish, "Young Master ate too"

Impossible

His young master had never liked to eat fruit since he was a child, almost not touching it at all.

Mu Xing nodded. "I ate it, and I ate it happily! I told you so, no one wouldn't like to eat fruit."

She grinned and added, "Oh, by the way. Uncle said his favorite fruit is strawberries, so please ask Butler to prepare a bit more strawberries tomorrow!"

A young master who never eats fruit, likes strawberries

Wu Guanjia looked at the empty fruit plate in his hand, then at the figure bouncing up the stairs. The surprise on his face turned into a kind smile.

Mu Xing returned to her room, took out her phone from her school bag to charge it, and saw a WeChat message on the screen.

It's her brother, A Chao, calling: "Little Mu Xing, are you available to take a call"

Joy unconsciously spread across her brow. Mu Xing immediately clicked on the chat box and replied, "Convenient."

The next second, He Chao's phone call came in.

Mu Xing excitedly answered, "Brother A Chao!"

"Mm." He Chao's voice held a gentle smile. "Yesterday was your first day of school, I worked late and didn't want to disturb you so I didn't look for you. After two days of school, are you getting used to everything"

Mu Xing replied, "I'm used to it! I even made a good friend!"

"You made friends so quickly, Xiaomuxing is amazing."

He Chao's voice was soft: "You are living at Mr. Fu's house now, I can't take care of you. You have to take good care of yourself. If you encounter any problems, you can contact me anytime. There are some things that are inconvenient to tell Mr. Fu, you can also tell me, understood"

Mu Xing suddenly remembered the man she had met on the subway this morning.

Should we tell Ah Zhao gege to help us look for it

The moment the thought flashed in his mind, she quickly suppressed it.

No!

Although Ah-cho's brother promised to help her investigate the truth behind the Mu family fire, she hoped deep down that he wouldn't get involved, for fear of him being in danger.

On the phone, He Chao fell silent for a moment. With a puzzled tone, he asked, "Little Mu Xing, what's wrong"

"I'm fine."

Mu Xing quickly retracted her thoughts. She did have another favor to ask him, "A Zhao gege, are you free on Saturday"

The day after tomorrow is Saturday.

He Chao opened his computer and glanced at the work schedule. "Free What's up"

Mu Xing said a little embarrassedly: "I want to go home and have a look, but I can't find the way. Can you take me there"

"Of course, but now it seems like we're not familiar to each other. I can't come and pick you up directly. How about this: Saturday morning at 9 am, I'll be waiting for you at the first intersection when I leave the manor."

He Chao thought very meticulously.

"Okay, thank you, Ah-Zhao gege."

"Get some rest, good night."

After hanging up the phone, He Chao called his assistant and asked her to contact patients scheduled for Saturday, either finding them a different doctor or rescheduling their appointment to Sunday.

The next day.

Mu Xing still went out at six o'clock as planned. She wanted to see if she could run into the middle-aged man on the subway again.

She had a piece of bread in her mouth and was about to step out the door when a low voice suddenly called from behind her.

A low voice, with a hint of sleepiness, "Mu Xing."

Mu Xing immediately turned around and saw the man coming down from the stairs.

His suit color was always simple, mostly black. Today, he was still wearing a black suit. The tailored cut highlighted his perfect figure, making him appear even more upright.

Legs wrapped in trousers were straight and strong, spotless black leather shoes stepped down the stairs, one step at a time, graceful as a prince.

Mu Xing took the bread from her mouth, tilting her head up and looking at him with puzzled eyes, "Little Uncle, why are you here so early today"

"Go see a client."

Fu Lingxiao went downstairs and said to Mu Xing, "I happen to be near your school, so I can drop you off."

"It's okay, Uncle. I can go to school by myself. You go ahead and busy yourself."

She still wants to go back to the subway and sit next to that middle-aged man.

Fu Lingxiao lowered his eyes to look at the little girl, his faint voice carrying a hint of threat, "Have you forgotten the consequences of disobeying the boss's arrangements"

One minute minus ten thousand, how could you possibly forget such an exciting thing!

Mu Xing immediately hugged the man's arm, as docile as a little quail, "Little Uncle, let's go eat breakfast. After we finish, we'll go out together!"

After breakfast.

Mu Xing consciously slid into the car and patted the seat beside her, "Little uncle, get in the car!"

Fu Lingxiao faintly hooked the corner of his lips and got into the car.

The driver started the car, and the convoy drove out of the estate in an orderly manner.

As soon as Fu Lingxiao sat in the car, he began to close his eyes and rest. Mu Xing saw that he was closing his eyes, so she didn't dare to disturb him. She lay quietly on the windowsill and watched the scenery.

The car was eerily quiet.

Until the car drove onto the cross-sea bridge, a wave of excited exclamation broke the silence inside the car.

"Wow! That's so beautiful!"

A voice, deliberately lowered, rang in his ear. Fu Lingxiao opened his eyes and saw the little girl propping herself up on the seat, straining her head toward his side of the car window.

Seeing him open his eyes, the little girl shrank her neck back and asked in a soft voice, "Uncle Xiao, did I wake you up"

"No."

Fu Lingxiao turned his head to look out the car window.

At this time, on the distant horizon, a soft golden glow was shimmering across the sea surface, making it sparkle. And that golden light was still rising slowly, becoming increasingly brilliant.

Fu Lingxiao narrowed his eyes. It was just sunrise, was there a need to be so excited

The little girl answered him with an excited expression on her face, as for.

Those shining eyes were almost pressed against the car window.

He adjusted his posture and looked at Mu Xing, "Want to, come over here and take a look"

"Yes!"

Before he could even finish speaking, the person had already climbed onto his legs.

Her upper body leaned out the car window, with chubby little paws resting on the glass. Her bottom was half-raised, and her skirt, originally reaching her knees, was now flipped up, revealing half of her thigh.

His gaze fell upon her skin, as tender and white as jade. Fu Lingxiao frowned slightly, using the little girl's arm to silently press down her skirt hem, then turned his eyes towards the window.

Just as I saw the sun jump out from the horizon, its dazzling golden light instantly filled the sea and sky, a magnificent and beautiful scene!

"Uncle, look!"

Mu Xing suddenly sat up straight, pointed at the window, and turned to look at the man.

And at this moment, the car just passed over a speed bump. The sudden jolt made the little figure kneeling on the man's legs sway.

Fu Lingxiao saw this, pulled his arm back, and Mu Xing, who was already unstable kneeling, was brought closer to him by his movement and rushed towards him... turned and went into the house to call someone. A while later, Tang Ruowan came out.Yun Tuo handed her the jewelry box, "Miss Tang, this is what Master Fu asked me to return to you."Tang Ruowan was s...
