Chapter 388 Frightened
Xi Hua kept apologizing because her matter had kept everyone busy. Not only did her daughter have to take time off work to come over, but it also disturbed Mr. Mu.
"Mom is fine. I'm sorry to have worried you all and disturbed Mr. Mu's peace and quiet..."
Mr. Mu waved his hand and said, "What's the big deal? The most important thing is that you're alright. In my opinion, when you go out in the future, it would be best to have Junze accompany you."
Mu Junze readily agreed, while Xi Hua lowered her head shyly.
"Mom, how did you run into An Changhai? Did he give you any trouble? Why did you go out alone?" Xi Yu frowned, her eyes filled with displeasure as she stared at the three black dogs standing in a row behind her. She had clearly told them to accompany her mother on this outing!
Upon receiving Xi Yu's gaze, the black dog and his companions lowered their heads one by one, looking as if they had admitted their mistakes.
"Don't blame them, it was my insistence on going there that caused this accident... But don't worry, he probably didn't see what I looked like, I escaped quickly!" Xi Hua hurriedly spoke up for Black Dog and the others. Now she knew that her precious daughter was actually the one in charge, and Black Dog wasn't the real boss.
Xi Yu frowned in confusion. What kind of place could Xi Hua be going to without telling her?
“That’s… your maternal grandfather’s, my father’s ancestral home, the house where I used to live.” Xi Hua’s gaze gradually drifted into the distance; the beautiful memories of her childhood were a past she could not let go of.
After his father Xi Zhan died, An Changhai took over all of the Xi family's businesses. In order to raise money to qualify for a promotion in the military, he sold the ancestral home against Xi Hua's wishes.
After the divorce, Xi Hua was unable to buy back the ancestral home.
The ancestral home was Xi Hua's last memory of her parents, which is why she couldn't help but ask the black dog to take her to the location of the ancestral home for a final look when she returned to the capital.
To her surprise, An Changhai appeared in front of the ancestral home and seemed to have noticed her.
Xi Yu was taken aback. She didn't know about this, nor was it in the original owner's memories.
“I just wanted to take a look at the ancestral home and pay my respects to your maternal grandfather, but…” Xi Hua was also annoyed by her hasty actions. She looked at Xi Yu with concern: “Will Mom cause you trouble? Will An… will he cause you trouble?”
Xi Yu gently hugged her and comforted her, "Don't worry, I can handle it. Mom doesn't need to hide. My status is different now. If he wants to cause trouble for me, he'll have to find a way to get into the First Legion first."
“Xiaoyu is right. The capital was where you lived, and you didn’t do anything heinous. There’s no reason for you to just stay at home because of An Changhai.” Mu Junze agreed and then said gently, “From now on, I will go out with you and I will not let you get hurt again.”
“It’s not that exaggerated… I don’t necessarily have to go out…” Xi Hua’s face turned red, and she didn’t know what to do with her hands. Moreover, she was even more reserved in front of her daughter.
Xi Yuxin understood immediately. It seemed that Mu Junze and Xi Hua's relationship was indeed progressing rapidly! It really made a difference to have someone pushing them forward.
Xi Yu glanced at Mr. Mu standing to the side, and Mr. Mu returned her a smug look. He had gone to great lengths to bring the two of them together!
Afterwards, Xi Yu used gentle hypnotic suggestion to eliminate Xi Hua's fear and let her fall asleep peacefully.
After she stepped out of the room, Black Dog, Fatty, and Madman stood before her, looking as if they were apologizing profusely.
