Chapter 406: Slam door
She had no doubt that Mu Chen loved her.
Mu Chen's love for him was extremely obvious.
It was rare to have a lover, so she should treasure him properly.
What was she still conflicted about?
Even if Mu Chen was her cousin husband, Ning Tong was already dead. She and Mu Chen were both free bodies, and both of them had the right to pursue their own blessings.
Zhang Xiao also thought about Mu Ya. It should be said that Mu Ya was the one she thought about the most.
Back then, when she was willing to be Mu Ya's nanny, wasn't it precisely Mu Ya's cries that brought out her pain? She hoped that she could do her best to let Mu Ya enjoy her mother's love. Yes, she was not Mu Ya's mother, but the one she gave Mu Ya was her mother's love.
The first time Mu Ya spoke, she called her mother. Mu Ya liked her, she liked Mu Ya more. After bringing Mu Ya with her for several months, she didn't even dare to think about where she could go after the expiration of the contract.
She couldn't bear to part with Mu Ya.
She was afraid that Mu Chen would find a bad stepmother and give her to Mu Ya. That way, Mu Ya would be like her, able to endure the mistreatment of her stepmother. Back then, she was still five years old, but what about Mu Ya? By the time her contract expired, Mu Ya would not be three years old yet. She was very young, so how could she bear to leave Mu Ya behind and no longer care about it?
Zhang Xiao couldn't do it!
If she accepted Mu Chen, she and Mu Ya would not be separated. She could watch Mu Ya grow healthy and healthy. Although she had also become a stepmother like that, she would definitely not mistreat her children like how Ling Hong Yu had. She herself had experienced the pain of being abused by her stepmother, so she didn't want Mu Ya to bear it again.
If you don't want to do it, don't do it to others!
Putting aside Mu Ya, who had treated her quite well.
They had formed an affinity with the Twenty-Two. Now that they had reunited, it was another form of fate. Mu Chen had lost her before, so he was naturally cared for and cherished him a lot.
As long as she opened her heart to accept Mu Chen's love, she would only get more happiness.
Not knowing that Mu Chen had come over, Mu Chen saw her daughter who was happily playing in the autumn rack. Like Zhang Xiao, he couldn't bear to interrupt her child's happiness, not to mention that his clothes were already wet, so he couldn't carry her child.
He quietly entered the house, and after asking the servant for help, he found out that Zhang Xiao had gone upstairs.
"Miss Zhang is in the rain. Go cook a bowl of ginger soup for her." In his heart, Mu Chen felt that it had been too long since he went upstairs to change clothes, but he did not forget to instruct the servants to cook a bowl of ginger soup for him.
The servant saw that his entire body was drenched, and asked with concern: "Third Young Master, do you want some ginger soup? I'll cook two more bowls."
Mu Chen immediately looked afraid. A while ago, he was still afraid of the bowl of Zhang Jiang Tang. He shook his head. "I'm not drinking anymore. I'm fine. My body is very strong." Finally, he said, "The ginger soup is so spicy."
Servants:
Third Young Master was afraid of Jiang Tang being spicy.
After Mu Chen instructed the servant to cook ginger soup for him, he went upstairs.
He first went to Zhang Xiao's room. The door was closed, but was not locked, he could open the door and go in, but he did not go in, he only opened the door and peeked his head in, but did not see Zhang Xiao. He guessed that Zhang Xiao was bathing in the bathroom, so he quietly closed the door and went back to her master's room.
Twenty minutes later.
Mu Chen changed into a set of dry clothes, and even washed his hair dry with the wind.
When he passed by Zhang Xiao's room, he thought that Zhang Xiao had already gone downstairs, so he did not linger and went straight downstairs.
The first floor was filled with the spicy smell of ginger. When Mu Chen, the person who was afraid of spiciness, smelled the spicy smell, he couldn't help but frown.
"Third Young Master, the ginger soup is ready, Miss Zhang has not come downstairs yet, do you want me to send the ginger soup upstairs?" The servant walked out with a bowl of ginger soup, and when he saw Mu Chen, he casually asked.
Mu Chen originally wanted to leave quickly, as he did not want to smell the spicy scent of ginger. However, when he heard the servant's question, he suddenly stopped and asked with furrowed brows: "Zhang Xiao still hasn't come downstairs?"
She came back before him, and went upstairs before him. He had a bath and changed his clothes.
The servant replied, "Miss Zhang has never gone downstairs." She asked Mu Chen in reply, "Didn't Third Young Master go to see you?"
In the next moment, Mu Chen turned and headed upstairs, his low voice turning back to the servant, "Put Jiang Tang on the table first, I told her to go downstairs to drink."
Zhang Xiao was definitely feeling sad.
Mu Chen quickly went back up the stairs and returned to the front of Zhang Xiao's room. He raised his hand and knocked on the door, and asked: "Zhang Xiao, have you changed?"
There was no response from the room.
Zhang Xiao, who was deep in thought, turned a deaf ear to the shouts outside the door.
Mu Chen knocked on the door a few times, but did not get a reply. He was worried that something might happen to Zhang Xiao, thus, he once again pushed open the door, but he could not see Zhang Xiao's figure inside the room. He quickly walked to the door of the bathroom, and knew that Zhang Xiao was still in the bathroom with her door closed, but he could not hear the sound of water nor did she know what Zhang Xiao was doing.
If she was taking a bath, she had been doing it for more than forty minutes.
"Zhang Xiao, are you alright?" Mu Chen knocked on the door and called Zhang Xiao who was inside.
Zhang Xiao still did not respond to him.
Mu Chen was worried that the woman was not overly sad. Pah pah pah, who wouldn't want to? She was the strongest woman he had ever met. If Leng Chu Yun had half of her self-improvement, she would also not commit suicide by jumping off a building.
"Zhang Xiao, are you crying while hiding inside? Come out, if you want to cry, I will lend you my shoulder. If you want to cry to the end of time, you can even do so. Don't hide, you will scare me to death. Zhang Xiao! " Mu Chen knocked on the door as he called out to his.
Mu Chen's voice...
She could even hear his voice while she was thinking. Did that mean that she had already begun to think about him? Yes, she was a little interested in him. It was really easy for her to fall in love with him. It was because she didn't want to accept his feelings that she forced herself to break off all ties.
She always remembered him as her cousin and feared that her mother's tragedy would reappear in her.
Yes, she was strong, but in the world of emotions, she discovered that she was not strong. What she feared the most was the failure of marriage, the grief of love.
"Zhang Xiao, if you don't come out, I'll be knocking on the door!"
Zhang Xiao thought she was hearing things, but Mu Chen, who was outside the bathroom, was burning with anxiety. She didn't know what she was doing hiding in the bathroom, so he slammed the door, "Zhang Xiao, did you hear it? Zhang Xiao! "
She was not deaf, and how could she not hear when he knocked on the door and called out to her? If she couldn't hear, that meant something had happened to her …
Mu Chen did not want to stop for a moment, nor did he go downstairs to look for a key. There were too many houses in the house, and there were too many keys as well. Even if he found the key, he could not differentiate which one was the key to the bathroom in Zhang Xiao's room.
