Chapter 648: A Dangerous Gaze

Chapter 648: A Dangerous Gaze

Lin Zhu had already taken care of everything regarding the Xu family's move that very evening. All the bodyguards responsible for monitoring the Xu family's movements were also in place. There were quite a few people on duty, with people taking turns every day to strictly control Xu Sulin's whereabouts so as to prevent her from having any contact with Mu Xiaoyu.

After Lin finished reporting these things, Li Chenxu drove back to the villa.

He got back quite late, and Mu Xiaoyu, unable to bear the hunger, had already finished her meal.

"You're back so soon? I thought you wouldn't be back for a while."

Mu Xiaoyu was watching TV on the sofa when she saw Li Chenxu return, which surprised her. The two had originally planned to have dinner together, but Mu Xiaoyu had canceled her schedule for the past few days because of Song Yin, so she would basically be spending the next two days at home.

Before dinner, Mu Xiaoyu received a call from Li Chenxu, who said he had to deal with Xu Sulin's matter, so she didn't ask any further questions.

Mu Xiaoyu didn't know the specifics of the situation, but one thing was clear: she would never leave easily.

If she hadn't known Xu Sulin's true colors back then, and had thought Xu Sulin had genuinely changed for the better, she wouldn't be so adamant in her current stance. But after encountering Xu Sulin at the hospital and hearing what she said, she had to make Xu Sulin leave.

Knowing that this matter wouldn't be resolved so easily or quickly, Mu Xiaoyu didn't press Li Chenxu too much, wanting to give him enough time. She didn't expect him to come back so early.

Li Chenxu gave a soft "hmm," walked over and sat down next to Mu Xiaoyu, gave her a habitual kiss, and then said, "It's all resolved. You won't see Xu Sulin in City A anymore."

"Xu Sulin shouldn't be someone who compromises so easily, right? Has she made any unreasonable demands on you?"

Mu Xiao wasn't someone who was easily fooled. Although Li Chenxu didn't say anything, she felt that something was off, and even the way she looked at Li Chenxu at that moment seemed a little strange.

Li Chenxu's expression remained unchanged, his gaze finally landing on Mu Xiaoyu. He said calmly, "You should know the current situation of the Xu family. Although Xu Sulin studied at a prestigious university abroad, he basically just coasted through his time there and never studied properly. Now that the Xu family has reached this point, no one in the family is willing to lower themselves to work for others. They have limited cash on hand, and if they don't work, they can only last for less than a year at most. So what they lack most right now is money."

"So you gave them money? People like the Xu family, if they really wanted money, they must have asked for a lot, right?" After all, they've gotten used to a good life, and it's not easy to go back to frugality. If they want to live a similar life as before, they'll definitely have to get a lot of money from Li Chenxu.

Li Chenxu gave Mu Xiaoyu a slightly complicated look, and finally nodded: "Yes, we gave them a lot of money. But that money is nothing to us. As long as we solve this problem and make you happy, nothing else matters."

Mu Xiaoyu couldn't quite describe how she felt. According to Li Chenxu, Xu Sulin's family had already left the country, but for some reason, she still couldn't put her mind at ease.

"Don't overthink it. Xu Sulin has already left. Don't let her affect your mood."

Seeing that Mu Xiaoyu was still frowning, Li Chenxu reached out and gently pinched her soft earlobe.

Mu Xiaoyu was ticklish, and his actions immediately disrupted her thoughts. She quickly shrank her neck to avoid Li Chenxu's movements, saying, "Don't do this to me, it tickles."

"I just touched it lightly, why am I getting more and more ticklish now?"

Li Chenxu muttered to himself, but as soon as he finished speaking, a wicked smile was clearly visible on his lips. Before Mu Xiaoyu could even react, Li Chenxu's devilish hand reached towards her armpit.

"Hahahaha... Li Chenxu... Stop... Stop... It's so itchy!"

Mu Xiaoyu was breathless from Li Chenxu's actions, laughing almost uncontrollably. Fortunately, Li Chenxu was mindful of the baby in Mu Xiaoyu's belly and didn't dare to go too far, stopping after only a few tickles. Finally, he whispered in Mu Xiaoyu's ear, "How is it? You won't be thinking about those things anymore, right?"

Sure enough, after being distracted by Li Chenxu, Mu Xiaoyu didn't have time to think about Xu Sulin anymore.

Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but glare at Li Chenxu: "You're always coming up with all sorts of tricks."

She had just laughed until tears streamed down her face, her eyes were wet and she looked like a pitiful little thing, which easily aroused sadistic desires in people.

When Li Chenxu saw Mu Xiaoyu like this, his eyes immediately changed.

Li Chenxu's gaze was far too dangerous; even Mu Xiaoyu, who was slow to notice, sensed it. Her throat bobbed nervously, and she instinctively tried to back away. However, Li Chenxu seemed to have noticed her movement, and with a swift movement, he pulled her into his arms.

"What are you hiding from?"

Those dangerous eyes looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a hint of a smile, much like the gaze of a lion when it sees its prey in an animal documentary.

Mu Xiaoyu had seen that look in Li Chenxu's eyes far too many times. Every time Li Chenxu gave her that look, she was bound to suffer the consequences.

She reached out and pressed against Li Chenxu's chest, stammering, "I...I didn't dodge, Li Chenxu. I'm not the same as before. You need to think carefully before you do things."

"Different from before? How is it different?"

Li Chenxu looked at Mu Xiaoyu with great interest. The dangerous aura in his eyes seemed to have dissipated considerably because of Mu Xiaoyu's words, and he didn't look as dangerous and terrifying as before.

Mu Xiaoyu mustered a bit of courage, raised her chin at Li Chenxu, and pointed to her slightly protruding belly, saying, "I'm carrying two people now. If you do something bad in a moment of impulse, you'll hurt two people too, you know?"

"But I didn't say what I was going to do."

Li Chenxu said with a smile, and Mu Xiaoyu was immediately speechless.

Come to think of it, from beginning to end, it seems that Li Chenxu never said what he was going to do.

However, even if he didn't say it, he usually did that kind of thing every time he did it before, so what difference would it make if he didn't say it?

Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but mentally complain about Li Chenxu, but she didn't dare say it to his face. She could only say dryly, "Can't I take precautions?"

“Sure, of course. And what you said is true, I do intend to do some things.”

As soon as the last word was uttered, Li Chenxu scooped Mu Xiaoyu up in his arms.
