Chapter 557: The Choice Is in My Hands
Since Mu Xiaoyu said that, Mu Yang had no reason to refuse, so she could only nod and agree.
It was getting late, and Mu Xiaoyu had to meet the director tomorrow, so she didn't keep Mu Yang and had him leave.
After Mu Yang left, Mu Xiaoyu did not go to rest immediately. Instead, she repeatedly looked at the examination report about her pregnancy.
Only after she could recite the contents of the test report did she truly believe that she was pregnant.
There were people around her just now, and she was too shocked to even hear the news, so Mu Xiaoyu didn't have any feeling of being pregnant yet.
But now, I truly realize that I am pregnant.
She placed her hand on her lower abdomen, which was still flat and she couldn't feel anything at all. But for some reason, she seemed to be able to feel that there was a life inside her.
The feeling was so wonderful that Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but laugh.
If she was still hesitant about whether to keep the child before, she has now made up her mind.
She will definitely stay with the child. Not for Li Chenxu, but for herself and for the child.
Even if she and Li Chenxu really can't stay together in the end, she is confident that she can raise the child well on her own.
Perhaps with the problem in her heart solved, Mu Xiaoyu fell asleep quickly after washing up.
Before going to bed, she turned on her phone so that she wouldn't be still asleep when Mu Yang and the others came looking for her the next day. However, Mu Xiaoyu forgot that she had hung up on Li Chenxu earlier and hadn't replied to his text messages.
Li Chenxu couldn't contact her before, but now that her phone was finally on, he naturally called her several times in a row.
At first, Mu Xiaoyu could ignore it, but later, Li Chenxu kept calling one after another, as if he would keep calling if Mu Xiaoyu didn't answer.
Mu Xiaoyu finally grew impatient with Li Chenxu's calls and answered the phone: "Li Chenxu, what's wrong with you calling so late?"
Why didn't you answer the phone at night?
Li Chenxu's voice was filled with suppressed anger. He had even had someone buy a return ticket. If Mu Xiaoyu's phone hadn't been off that night, Li Chenxu would probably already be on his way back.
Mu Xiaoyu wasn't fully awake yet; she was still groggy. Hearing Li Chenxu's words, she immediately sneered and said, "I can answer the phone if I want to, and I can choose not to. That's my freedom. Li Chenxu, let me tell you, if you disturb me while I'm sleeping again, you can forget about me answering your calls ever again!"
After saying this, Mu Xiaoyu hung up the phone without waiting for Li Chenxu's reaction.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the ocean, Li Chenxu looked at the phone that had been hung up on, his face turning extremely gloomy. Lin Zhu, who was standing next to him, had never seen Li Chenxu with such a grim expression in a long time, and was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe loudly.
"How's things going with Xu Sulin?"
“Miss Xu said that she doesn’t feel safe if you’re not around. If… if you’re not here, she’ll go back to China for treatment, saying it would be better to have family around to take care of her.”
Lin replied anxiously. Li Chenxu didn't say anything, just sat there in the same position as when the call was hung up, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"What did the doctor say? How is she doing now? Is she able to return to China?"
After a long silence, Li Chenxu spoke again. Although he asked about Xu Sulin's well-being, Lin Zhu, who had followed Li Chenxu for so many years, could tell that Li Chenxu seemed unwilling to let Xu Sulin return to China for treatment.
He thought for a moment, and finally replied truthfully, "Miss Xu's condition is much better than when she first arrived, so she can go back. However, the attending physician still suggests that Miss Xu stay here, since changing doctors is not good for the patient."
"In that case, let her stay here. If she's really too lonely, bring her parents over to keep her company."
Li Chenxu spoke these words without any hesitation. He wasn't sure if Xu Sulin genuinely wanted to cooperate with him or if she had ulterior motives. But regardless, Xu Sulin's actions had already created conflict between him and Mu Xiaoyu. If he didn't resolve the issue with Xu Sulin, the rift between him and Mu Xiaoyu might become irreparable, which was definitely not what Li Chenxu wanted to see.
Upon hearing this, Assistant Lin immediately understood. Since it was daytime here, he immediately went to do what Li Chenxu had asked him to do.
At this time, Xu Sulin was unaware that she was still having the nanny who was taking care of her pack her things to prepare to return to China.
"No need to pack, you can stay."
Li Chenxu walked in at this moment and saw that the aunt was still packing her things, so he spoke up.
Upon hearing this, the aunt paused, subconsciously glancing at Xu Sulin, her expression momentarily hesitant.
When Li Chenxu came in, it was obvious that Xu Sulin was in a good mood.
After Li Chenxu said that, Xu Sulin's expression stiffened for a moment. She looked at Li Chenxu and forced a smile: "What's wrong, Brother Chenxu? Why did you say that?"
Xu Sulin is no longer as arrogant and domineering as before, and he no longer causes trouble for Mu Xiaoyu at the drop of a hat. So now, when Li Chenxu faces Xu Sulin, at least on the surface, he is much better than before.
Hearing Xu Sulin ask this question, he still replied, "The doctor said that it's best for you to stay here given your current condition. If you feel lonely, I've already asked Assistant Lin to bring your parents over."
"But Brother Chenxu! I've kept my illness a secret from my parents. I didn't want them to worry, which is why I chose to cooperate with you. You promised you wouldn't tell them about this!"
Li Chenxu had already walked to Xu Sulin's bedside. He was tall but not too bulky, but even so, his sudden presence by the bedside still put a lot of pressure on Xu Sulin.
Li Chenxu's attitude towards Xu Sulin had become much gentler recently, so this sudden change caught Xu Sulin off guard. She looked at Li Chenxu and stammered, "Brother Chenxu... what's wrong with you?"
"Xu Sulin, I'm not discussing this with you; I'm telling you directly so you can be prepared. From beginning to end, the choice in our transaction has never been in your hands, but in mine. Do you understand?"
