The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 742: Honey, please don't be angry.

Chapter 742: Honey, please don't be angry.

As soon as he said that, An'an's mouth stopped pursing and she became obedient.

Mu Xiaoyu was utterly ashamed of how quickly An'an changed her expression. She had seen An'an once or twice at the hospital and thought An'an was an honest, obedient, and well-behaved child. But now it seemed that An'an must have had an eye problem to think that way.

Just by looking at her now, you can tell what kind of temperament An'an will have in the future. Even if she won't be as cold as Li Chenxu, she still seems like a mischievous devil.

Mu Xiaoyu suddenly had a headache. She already had Li Chenxu, which was one thing. Although he sometimes gave her a headache, he was mostly obedient. More importantly, Li Chenxu basically did whatever she said.

But it's different for kids.

Mu Xiaoyu had heard some married people with children say that no matter how well-behaved a child is when they are young, they all turn into little devils when they grow up.

She sighed deeply again, as if talking to herself: "Forget it, why should I argue with a child like you? We're all family anyway. If you really become a little devil, what can I do to you?"

An'an couldn't understand what Mu Xiaoyu was saying, but seeing that Mu Xiaoyu didn't seem unhappy, she grinned at her again, looking silly, which made Mu Xiaoyu burst out laughing.

Seeing her smile, Li Chenxu's lips also curled up: "Look at the way you smile."

"What's wrong with me? Can't I even smile?"

Mu Xiaoyu gave Li Chenxu a disapproving look. She could laugh however she wanted, why was he bothering with this?

Seeing the stark difference in how Mu Xiaoyu treated him compared to how she treated An'an, Li Chenxu's expression instantly turned aggrieved: "I didn't mean anything by it, it's just that I saw you smiling so happily when you looked at An'an. You haven't smiled so happily at me in a long time."

After saying that, he even winked at Mu Xiaoyu with a pitiful look. Mu Xiaoyu has never been able to resist Li Chenxu's face, but now that they've been together for a long time, she's not as overly smitten as before, though she still doesn't have much resistance.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that after An'an came along, she did neglect Li Chenxu somewhat.

Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but glance at Li Chenxu again. He noticed her gaze and stared straight at her, his expression becoming increasingly pitiful.

She was truly at a loss with Li Chenxu, so she finally reached out and gently stroked his head a couple of times, like stroking a cat's fur, and stroked it a few more times. Li Chenxu, who had been looking aggrieved, felt her touch, and his eyes narrowed comfortably, making him look quite like a proud and aloof cat.

Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but laugh: "Feels good, doesn't it?"

"That feels good, you can touch it a few more times."

This time, Mu Xiaoyu didn't argue with him. Instead, she went along with him and patted his head twice more until her hand felt a little tired before she withdrew it. "I admit I've neglected you a bit these past few days, and I apologize. But we're practically an old married couple, right? So sometimes, we don't need to be as clingy as before, do we?"

"Sticky?"

Li Chenxu had just felt comfortable after being stroked by Mu Xiaoyu, and only then did he relax when he heard Mu Xiaoyu's words, which made him frown instantly.

He was very dissatisfied with Mu Xiaoyu's words. What did she mean by "clingy"? If two people are together, the longer they spend together, the better their relationship will be, and there won't be any opportunity for others to take advantage of the situation.

Moreover, they don't spend much time together, yet Mu Xiaoyu is now saying they're clingy.

Li Chenxu felt as if his heart had been stabbed, feeling both distressed and wronged. He looked at Mu Xiaoyu, but didn't say anything more, only pursing his lips tightly, his face tense, clearly hurt.

Seeing his expression, Mu Xiaoyu's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately sensed something was wrong.

She had a deep understanding of how Li Chenxu would act up when he was truly wronged, and he was no different from before in this state.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

"No, you didn't say anything wrong, everything you said was right."

Li Chenxu was genuinely angry about this. In the past, he might have admitted it directly, but this time he didn't, clearly indicating that he was currently furious and didn't want to talk to Mu Xiaoyu.

But he couldn't bear to ignore her, so he could only speak to Mu Xiaoyu in this tone.

He looked so arrogant right now. Mu Xiaoyu wanted to laugh, but she was afraid that if she laughed, she would have to coax him for a long time. So she hugged An'an and moved closer to Li Chenxu, blinking her eyes at him: "Okay, I misspoke just now. Please don't be angry, okay, An'an is so cute?"

An'an was completely confused about what had happened between Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu. Looking at Li Chenxu who was so close to her, the smile that An'an had on her face when she was with Mu Xiaoyu disappeared immediately. She was obviously not as enthusiastic towards Li Chenxu as she was towards Mu Xiaoyu. She even reached out and slapped Li Chenxu's face twice.

Neither Mu Xiaoyu nor Li Chenxu expected his move, and An'an seemed to have quite a bit of strength in her blows. After two blows, Li Chenxu's face was clearly reddened.

Not content with just hitting him, An'an seemed quite pleased, laughing again and waving her chubby arms as if she wanted to hit Li Chenxu again.

Fortunately, Mu Xiaoyu reacted in time this time and quickly grabbed An'an's arm to stop him: "How can you hit Daddy! If you do that again, Mommy won't like you anymore!"

Mu Xiaoyu pretended to be angry and glared at An'an. As she 'reprimanded' An'an, the previously unruly An'an instantly became quiet and nestled obediently in Mu Xiaoyu's arms.

Looking at Li Chenxu again, his expression became even more aggrieved. He pursed his lips and looked at An'an and Mu Xiaoyu, who were getting along very well. Finally, he couldn't help but say, "An'an only has eyes for you, her mother, not for me, her father. You treat An'an better than me. If this continues, I will have no status in this family in the future!"

After saying that, he turned and left without waiting for Mu Xiaoyu to speak.

This was the first time Mu Xiaoyu had ever seen Li Chenxu so haughty and angry. But judging from Li Chenxu's expression just now, he seemed genuinely wronged. This time, Mu Xiaoyu felt a pang of sympathy. She quickly caught up with him, carrying An'an with difficulty in one arm and grabbing Li Chenxu's arm with the other, saying urgently, "Don't be angry. An'an is young and doesn't understand anything. It wasn't intentional. In my heart, you and An'an are both the most important. There's no one better or second best. Honey, please don't be angry anymore, okay?"
