CEO's Pampered Sweetheart

Mu Shengchen, who sat in the back seat, looked at Ye Xi with a cold gaze as his face sunk. Ye Xi had a chill down his spine, then forced a smile at Ning Qianyu, "Miss Ning, I'll ask the Mu Family's driver to send you back to the apartment."    

    

After saying that, Ye Xi entered the Mu Family courtyard and returned just in a glimpse of an eye.    

    

"Miss Ning, Uncle Wang will be out to send you back right away. Please wait a moment."    

    

With that, Ye Xi smiled apologetically at Ning Qianyu, then drove off in his Audi.     

    

Ning Qianyu watched Mu Shengchen and the Audi car vanished into the night, yet she did not look away after a long time.    

    

Until Mu Jinbo's voice sounded from her back, "What happened, sister-in-law? Were you abandoned by my brother?"    

    

Ning Qianyu turned around, looked at Mu Jinbo, then smiled and said, "Second Young Master Mu is overthinking. Chen had some other matters to take care of so he left first."    

    

Mu Jinbo's eyes darkened when he heard Ning Qianyu call Mu Shengchen so intimately. Soon, he smirked and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't need to find excuses for my elder brother. The incident happened three years ago traumatized him, so, it's normal for him to ditch you."    

    

"Thank you, Second Young Master Mu, for your concern," Ning Qianyu fake a smile, clenching her fists tightly as it turned grey and she dug her nails into her palm, causing a heart-wrenching pain.    

    

Seeing that Ning Qianyu was still standing still, Mu Jinbo's expression became more and more unsightly. He opened the door of his Lamborghini and tilted his head to ask Ning Qianyu, "Do you need a ride to your apartment?"    

    

At this moment, the old driver's voice sounded from the side, "Young Mistress?"    

    

Ning Qianyu said indifferently to Mu Jinbo, "Thank you, no need."    

    

Mu Jinbo glared at the old driver, then slammed the door, then stepped on the accelerator, causing Lamborghini to shot away like an arrow.    

    

"Uncle Wang, sorry for troubling you," Ning Qianyu smiled apologetically at the old driver before opening the back seat and getting in.    

    

"This is my duty. Where did the Young Master go without bringing Young Mistress along?" Uncle Wang asked as he drove.    

    

"He has some important matters to deal with," Ning Qianyu answered absentmindedly as she stared out the window into the night sky.    

    

She had no idea what had happened three years ago that had such an impact on that man. It was as if he had become a completely different person.    

    

Seeing that Ning Qianyu was distracted, Uncle Wang did not ask anymore and sent her all the way to the Haoyuan District.    

    

"Young Mistress, we're here!" Uncle Wang's voice sounded from the driver's seat.    

    

Ning Qianyu looked outside and realized she had arrived at the Haoyuan Community District.    

    

"Thank you, Uncle Wang," Ning Qianyu thanked the old driver before opening the door and getting off the car.    

    

Although it was just late autumn, the night breeze was chilling, causing Ning Qianyu to shudder. Because of the cold wind, her lower abdomen began hurting again.    

    

She bit her lower lip and slowly walked toward the building.    

    

Suddenly, a figure rushed out from the side and hugged her, Ning Qianyu immediately cried out, "Ah!"    

    

That person quickly reached out his hand to cover her mouth and whispered in her ear, "It's me."    

    

Mu Jinbo! Ning Qianyu's eyes widened. Then, she came back to her senses and kicked towards Mu Jinbo.    

    

He was caught off guard and was kicked between his tighs by Ning Qianyu's high heels.    

    

He let out a cry of pain and loosened his grip, allowing Ning Qianyu to immediately struggle off. She then stared at Mu Jinbo with a strange and disgusted face, "Master Second Young Master Mu, I'm your brother's wife. Please don't do such a thing in the future again."    

    

"Qianyu, I was wrong. Can you please forgive me? Leave that cripple and come back to me, " Mu Jinbo took a step closer to Ning Qianyu, who said coldly, "If Second Young Master Mu wants to appear on the news headlines tomorrow, you may go ahead."    

    

As expected, Mu Jinbo stopped and stared at Ning Qianyu, not expecting her to say something like this.    

    

Ning Qianyu did not know Mu Jinbo's thoughts. Therefore, after making sure that Mu Jinbo would not chase after her, she hurriedly ran into the building.    

    

Actually, she was also terrified. At such a late night, she was not sure what would Mu Jinbo do. About the news headlines, it was only to threaten Mu Jinbo.    

    

Ning Qianyu only felt relief after she rushed into her house and shut the door.    

    

At the same time, tears of grievance filled her eyes.     

    

There was no one else in the empty apartment, causing Ning Qianyu to feel an unprecedented coldness.    

    

When had she become so dependent on him? Ning Qianyu's heart was filled with bitterness.     

    

Darkness was slowly delved into her mind and swallowed her, yet she did not want to get up and turn on the light.    

    

Probably because she knew that even if she turned on the light, there would not be another person here.    

    

Suddenly, she heard the sound of a wheelchair moving, not believing in what she had just heard.    

    

Did he not ask Ye Xi to send him to City B? How could he be at home?    

    

The lights lightened up the dark, along with the sound of the wheelchair approaching, as a low and hoarse voice sounded in her ears, "Don't you know how to turn on the lights? Why are you sitting on the ground? Don't you know that the ground is cold?"    

    

His tone was unpleasant, but every of his words was filled with concern.    

    

Ning Qianyu lifted her head to look at him, "I thought…"    

    

"Thought what?" Mu Shengchen's eyes were still cold, "Still don't want to get up?"    

    

Ning Qianyu got up from the ground with a smile through tears.    

    

"I thought you went to City B."    

    

Mu Shengchen's face stiffened as he said, "Ye Xi suddenly felt unwell and went to the hospital."    

    

Ye Xi, who was working overtime at the company, immediately retorted, "Young Master Chen, you were obviously worried about Miss Ning. You asked me to drive you back to the apartment when we're on the way there, yet you cursed me, saying that I felt unwell and was sent to the hospital?"    

    

"Oh," Ning Qianyu paid attention to what Mu Shengchen said at all. Her heart was in ecstasy that he did not go to City B and did not abandon her.    

    

Noticing Ning Qianyu's happiness, Mu Shengchen smile slightly.    

    

Then he said awkwardly, "I'm hungry."     

    

What he meant was, "It's time to cook me some food."    

    

"I'll cook right away. What do you want to eat?" Ning Qianyu went up to Mu Shengchen's face.    

    

He then gulped his saliva, avoided her gaze, and answered flatly, "Anything."    

    

"Then let's make some dumplings," Ning Qianyu ran happily into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator to search for ingredients.    

    

Mu Shengchen stared at her busy figure and the scene of Mu Jinbo blocking Ning Qianyu just now flashed through his eyes.    

    

He was calm on the outside, yet his fingers were clenching tightly around the handles of the wheelchair.    

    

The woman was happily cooking dumplings, not knowing that Mu Shengchen's heart was in chaos.    

    

After the dumplings were cooked, Ning Qianyu grabbed Mu Shengchen's hand and sat on the couch watching TV. Mu Shengchen, who was always so graceful, did not refute her.    

    

While watching the soap drama on the TV, Ning Qianyu and Mu Shengchen sat with legs crossed on the couch, eating dumplings side by side.    

    

"Have you had enough?" Suddenly, Ning Qianyu looked at him and asked.    

    

Mu Shengchen lifted his head and raised his eyebrows. Ning Qianyu rubbed her tummy and said awkwardly, "I'm too full."
