After the meal, Fu Lingxiao rarely went upstairs, but took the initiative to take Mu Xing for a walk in the manor.

Dusk fell low, and the sky was dyed deep blue.

The man in a black suit held the girl's soft little hand tightly and walked intently on the grass-inlaid brick pavement leading to the garden. The white street lamp shrouded the two of them like a mist, giving rise to a somewhat comfortable tenderness.

.

Mu Xing looked sideways at the man beside her, wanting to discuss with him how to lure the murderer out. As a last resort, she didn't want An Jiamu to take risks, so she had to try her best to persuade her uncle to agree to use her as bait.

The man was so keen that he noticed the moment her eyes fell on the side of his face. He turned his head, stared at her with his deep eyes, and raised his thin lips in a slight arc, "Baby, do you have something you want to tell me?"

The deep voice was accompanied by a smile, and the three-dimensional outline became more stunning and alluring under the hazy light.

Mu Xing looked at him, feeling a little itchy at the end of his throat for no reason, and said softly, "I can't find Lu Yuan after so long. I don't want to wait any longer. Uncle, can you agree with my previous method?"

"

The smile in the man's eyes receded like a tide, and his sandalwood eyes seemed to have sunk into the deep sea, leaving only endless darkness, "I told you last time, no."

"Little uncle..."

Mu Xing held his big hand with both hands and shook it coquettishly, looking at him with a pair of bright deer eyes.

Fu Lingxiao pursed her thin lips tightly and locked her pupils on the little girl's delicate face. Her beautiful eyes seemed to be filled with starlight. It had been a long time since he had seen her look so cute and lovely, and he was almost beaten.

She nodded in agreement, but luckily her remaining sense held him back.

He could agree to any of her requests, and even give her his life, but he could not agree to this matter. If Lu Yuan was not the only insider about the Mu family's affairs, once the little girl's identity is revealed, it will inevitably

Will bring in insiders.

No matter how tight the defense is, it is afraid of being too dense. If the little girl finds out that it is related to his father, she will definitely choose to leave. He would rather take the roundabout way, even if he spends thousands of times of energy to investigate, he does not want to take this risk.

.

"Little uncle, promise me."

Mu Xing persisted.

The delicate and soft voice fell into his ears, and Fu Lingxiao's eyes turned dark. He calmed down and said in a deep voice after a moment: "I will never agree, and you should never mention this matter again."

After saying that, he brushed off Mu Xing's hands, turned around and left quickly.

He had never been able to resist the little girl's coquettishness. Facing her again, all his emotions would be gone, including guilt, fear, helplessness, and a bit of inappropriate...want for her.

Mu Xing looked at the man's decisive back with a stunned expression, her eyes filled with rawness. This was the first time that her little uncle was so angry that he left her. This feeling was so uncomfortable.

But after the man who fled hastily walked more than ten meters, he suddenly woke up and turned around hastily, but the little girl had disappeared!

He frowned, ran towards the road paved with grass bricks, glanced around, and called her eagerly: "Xing'er!"

After searching the garden all over, he still couldn't find Mu Xing. Fu Lingxiao looked at the silent surroundings, his handsome face was gloomy, and he couldn't help but feel flustered in his heart.

The little girl has been in a bad mood during this period, but he still left her like this. If something happened to her, or she left in anger...

He hurriedly took out his cell phone and was about to call everyone to find it together when a pair of slender arms suddenly and silently hugged him from behind.

Fu Lingxiao was startled, then turned around and hugged her back, his thin lips pressed against her slightly cold forehead, "Xing'er, where were you just now?"

Mu Xing raised his head and looked at him, "I was angry that my uncle left me and hid him on purpose."

There was a layer of mist in her beautiful pupils, and the tip of her nose was slightly red, making her look particularly distressing.

Fu Lingxiao felt that his heart had been hit hard, and he felt countless guilt, "I'm sorry, baby, I shouldn't have left you just now."

Mu Xing pouted her little mouth aggrievedly, her foggy deer eyes filled with accusations: "I'll just leave you alone, what kind of treasure am I?"

Fu Lingxiao: "..."

While he was acknowledging his loss, he actually felt a little bit happy in his heart, because he felt the little girl's mood swings, instead of being as calm as a pool of water like a few days ago.

She is recovering little by little, which is great!

"Baby, I was wrong. Since this is my first offender, please forgive me this time, okay?"

The apology was perfect.

Seeing the sincere look on the man's face, Mu Xing pretended to think hesitantly for a long time before nodding, "Okay, I'll forgive you this time, but if you abandon me again in the future, I will never forgive you again."

Now, I will hide so that you will never find me!"

"I promise there won't be a next time."

How dare he!

Just in the garden, she could hide so that he could not find her. What's more, the vastness of the sky outside made him really not sure that he would be able to find her.

Tsk!

Sometimes it is not a good thing to have a girlfriend who is too powerful. You may consider buying a chain and have it ready.

Mu Xing knew that the man would not agree to her plan, so she stopped mentioning it. She secretly planned to wait a few more days, and if she still didn't find Lu Yuan, she would consider An Jiamu's suggestion.

The two walked back to the villa hand in hand. Butler Wu came out of the kitchen and said with a smile: "Xiao Mu Xing, the old lady called you just now. You didn't bring your mobile phone. She called me and asked you to reply to her when you come back.

A phone call."

"Okay, I'll call grandma right away."

Mu Xing sat on the sofa and took out her mobile phone from her schoolbag. The video call from Mrs. Fu was displayed on it. She clicked to call back. It was obvious that the other party was waiting and she was connected instantly.

Mrs. Fu's kind face appeared on the screen, wearing a pair of reading glasses, smiling at Mu Xing: "Little Mu Xing, are you back from your walk?"

Mu Xing responded with a sweet smile, "Well, what do you want grandma to do with me?"

Mrs. Fu: "It's nothing important. It's just that you haven't seen grandma for a long time. Grandma misses you and wants to chat with you."

Mu Xing thought that he had indeed not been to his old house for a long time, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, grandma, I've been a little busy recently. I'll visit you after school tomorrow and have dinner with you."

Mrs. Fu waved her hand, "No, no, no, you are busy with your business, even if grandma is watching you on the phone, it will be the same."

"But I want to see grandma, and I also want to eat grandma's cakes."

"Okay, okay, then I'll ask the kitchen to prepare pastries for you to come and eat."

"..."

The two chatted for more than half an hour before reluctantly hanging up the video.

Fu Lingxiao had been sitting quietly next to Mu Xing until she put away her phone, then he held her on his lap, wrapped his arms around her delicate body, and said softly: "Baby, if you don't want to go to the old house, you can
