When it’s time to be cruel, your heart must be cruel. Indecisiveness will make it difficult to rescue Guo Yun.

Mu Xuexing returned to the North Pavilion and thought that Lu Qi would wait for him in the main hall. There was no Lu Qi in the hall. If Lu Qi was not here, it would not mean that there was no one. There was someone. He was a charming woman, and the woman's name was Zhao Lan, who was the wife of Lu Qi's family.

Mu Xuexing didn't know Zhao Lan. Zhao Lan was holding a three-year-old girl in her arms. The girl was curled up in Zhao Lan's arms and half-sleeping. Although Mu Xuexing didn't know anyone, if it weren't for the guards, how could he let people go to the museum casually?

Mu Xuexing saw Zhao Lan sitting in the main hall with her girl in her arms, which really made Mu Xuexing feel a little amused. Mu Xuexing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Captain Lu is not here?"

If the newcomers in the City Defense Forces were not all new to Zhao Lan, Lu Qi would naturally be polite to her. Although Zhao Lan did not recognize all the people in the City Defense Forces, she also recognized most of them. Mu Xuexing was very jealous, and she was not dressed in a city guard.

Mu Xuexing was not a slutty person at first glance. Mu Xuexing asked, which made Zhao Lan feel a little frightened, "The head of the family is not here, I say I'm back soon."

"The head of the family?" Mu Xuexing then understood Zhao Lan's identity. Mu Xuexing bowed and said, "I have met my sister-in-law's wife."

Lu Qi is the captain of the city defense team, and Zhao Lan is older than Mu Xuexing, so she should be respected for her reason.

Seeing Mu Xue bowing, Zhao Lan thought of getting up and returning the bowing, but it seemed inconvenient to hold the child. Mu Xuexing hurriedly said, "Mrs. Sister-in-law, don't be too polite, don't wake up the child."

Zhao Lanqian laughed and said, "I laughed at you."

Mu Xuexing also smiled and sat down in the guest chair opposite Zhao Lan. He didn't know what to say when they met for the first time, so neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.

Zhao Lan looked at Mu Xuexing with her eyes evasive, as if she wanted to find something to say to avoid embarrassment. "Young master is very handsome, I don't know where he is from?"

Zhao Lan asked questions without answering, and it seemed to be rude. Mu Xuexing smiled and said, "Mu Xuexing, the lower official, is a man from the East."

Zhao Lan hurriedly stood up with the child in her arms, bowed slightly and said, "I don't know if it's an envoy, please forgive me."

Although Lu Qi is the captain of the city defense team, he is not a person on the same table than the wealthy families and the official families. Judging from Zhao Lan's behavior and conversation, he is not like an ignorant village woman. Mu Xuexing speculated that Zhao Lan was a little from a wealthy family in the past, but she must be a declining wealthy family. Otherwise, his family would not be willing to let Zhao Lan marry Lu Qi.

The city defense army captain sounds nice, but after all, he is also a city soldier.

Zhao Lan held the child and bowed back the gift, and Mu Xuexing could only get up, "Madam, don't be polite."

The messenger is a foreign guest, and no matter how he counts his official position, he is always higher than Lu Qi. Mu Xuexing called "Madam, Madam" like that. Zhao Lan knew that Mu Xuexing was polite, but it also made her seem a little at a loss.

Fortunately, Lu Qi came, and Zhao Lan didn't have to be at a loss. Lu Qi entered the hall and saw Mu Xuexing and Zhao Lan were both inside at the same time. Mu Xuexing made an appointment with Lu Qi, but Zhao Lan was not.

Zhao Lan did not make Lu Qi angry without asking for help. She was angry but said with reproach, "This is the office place, how can it be to come with the child!"

Zhao Lan's eyes turned red and said with resentment, "You know that the child is busy, and she is so hot that she can't sleep after taking medicine. She only calls her father, she can only fall asleep in your arms, and I have no choice."

Seeing Lu Qi come in, the child opened his eyes and stretched out his hand, "Dad, hug."

Lu Qi's daughter is also well-behaved and cute. She has two big braids and her eyes are also beautiful. Mu Xuexing likes it very much when he sees it.

Lu Qi held the child in his arms, his eyes full of fatherly love. "Is Zheng'er sick? Let's see." Lu Qi stretched out two fingers and put them on his forehead, "It's a bit hot."

Mu Xuexing was watching Lu Qi, who was full of fatherly love, but Mu Xuexing was very uncomfortable at this moment.

Lu Qi sat down opposite Mu Xuexing with Lu Zheng in his arms. Mu Xuexing felt that he seemed to be redundant, but there was something fatal to say between them. Of course, he couldn't leave now. Mu Xuexing wanted to leave but was afraid that Lu Qi would not agree. But if he continued to sit and watch Lu Qi holding a child, this would make Mu Xuexing soft-hearted. If he softened his heart, he could not deal with Lu Qi, and if he didn't deal with Lu Qi, Zhou An would be in danger.

Mu Xuexing looked away and tried to harden his heart.

It’s not that Lu Qi didn’t know that Mu Xuexing was by her side, but she forgot everything when she saw her little daughter. Lu Qi made a face to make her little daughter happy, and the little daughter giggled in Lu Qi’s arms.

The laughter attracted Mu Xuexing's attention. Mu Xuexing's eyes fell on Lu Qi, and he saw Lu Qi's face. In Mu Xuexing's eyes, the youngest person was probably Lu Qi.

Lu Qi pressed Lu Zheng's sharp nose, and Lu Zheng seemed angry and pouted, "Dad, don't press Zheng'er's nose, if you press too much, your nose will not look good."

Lu Qi laughed loudly, "It's not good to think that Zheng'er can't get married when she grows up, and Zheng'er can always be with her father."

Zhao Lan was not happy and said angrily, "There is someone who says that his daughter is still there."

Lu Qi closed his smile and looked up at Mu Xuexing. Lu Qi's eyes were filled with worldly plans again.

Zhao Lan knew that Mu Xuexing must have something to say when looking for someone, so Zhao Lan said, "Jin'er and mother are good, don't interfere with her father's work."

Lu Zheng didn't use his little hand to grab Lu Qi's arm, "No, Zheng'er won't go back."

Lu Qi looked at Lu Zheng with love and smiled and said, "If you don't go back, you won't go back. Zheng'er will be here to accompany her father."

Lu Qi held Lu Zheng and asked Mu Xuexing, "Have you been to Xie Wen's residence earlier?"

Mu Xuexing has seen quite a few scenes, but Mu Xuexing has never seen anyone talking about business with his daughter in his arms. Since Lu Qi wants to talk, Mu Xuexing cannot retreat. Mu Xuexing did not hide it and said, "Yes, I've been there earlier."

Mu Xuexing did not hide it because there was no need to hide it. Xie Wen's neighbors were not blind, and Mu Xuexing did not disguise himself when he came to the door, so others would naturally recognize him. Mu Xuexing had long expected that Lu Qi would definitely ask someone to ask about the portrait.

Since he was prepared, Mu Xuexing must tell the truth. Lu Qi never thought Mu Xuexing would admit it. Lu Qi seemed surprised and said, "What did you ask Xie Wen for early morning?"

Since Mu Xuexing can admit that it must be an idea to deal with the topic, Mu Xuexing said, "I didn't go to Xie Wen specifically, I know he was going to the mansion to get married and sent a gift."

Lu Qi laughed and said, "Send a gift? Don't the messenger think it's too early to give this gift?"

Mu Xuexing knew that Lu Qi would definitely ask this question. Mu Xuexing said, "It's early, but I don't know how long I'll stay in Jingbei. If I catch up, it's the city defense force, naturally I have to be happy."

Mu Xuexing's reply was nothing wrong, and Lu Qi was asking, "Don't the messenger look like a person who is afraid of snakes?"

Mu Xuexing knew that Lu Qi was implying that he was knocking down the ladder, and Mu Xuexing said funnyly, "Oh? Why?"

Lu Qi said, "The messenger is a person who wants to do great things, how could he scare a little snake?"

Mu Xuexing didn't reply, saying something irrelevant, "I fell asleep"

Lu Qi's arms were very warm. Lu Zheng listened to the two of them in Lu Qi's arms. Their voices were like lullaby and they were sleepy and squinted.
