Chapter 529: Awaiting His Explanation
"When I come back, this time we'll remarry. And... after this, we can have children."
Previously, the child had always been a thorn in Mu Xiaoyu's side. Because of the child, the Li family had caused Mu Xiaoyu countless troubles. Moreover, at that time, Mu Xiaoyu had no feelings for Li Chenxu and naturally did not want the child.
Later, when both of them wanted children, so many things happened at that time.
Looking back now, it's hard to believe that the two of them had gone through so much hardship together.
They're not young anymore; it's time for them to have children.
Thinking about the days when the two of them would have children, Mu Xiaoyu's lips involuntarily curled up slightly. She softly hummed in agreement and whispered to Li Chenxu on the other end of the phone, "Okay, when you come back, we'll have children."
Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu didn't talk for long before hanging up the phone. This call was like a shot of adrenaline for Mu Xiaoyu, instantly calming her previously uneasy heart.
Although she really wanted to know what was going on between Li Chenxu and Xu Sulin, she preferred to wait for Li Chenxu to tell her what had happened in person. She was willing and would choose to believe him.
Because of Li Chenxu's phone call, Mu Xiaoyu was able to get a decent night's sleep.
The night before, Li Chenxu had told Mu Xiaoyu that he would be staying abroad for about a week before returning. Without Li Chenxu, and having already dealt with most of the previous social engagements, Mu Xiaoyu threw herself into her writing the next day.
The previous issues with submitting the film for review have all been resolved. In addition, Li Chenxu's people are in talks with major cinemas, and the release date has been set for the second half of this year.
By then, with the powerful promotion from the Li family, plus Song Yin, a film queen, and other talented actors in the movie, Mu Xiaoyu's fame will soar even higher.
Although she is just a cartoonist, she is not ignorant of these kinds of publicity and marketing.
Therefore, Mu Xiaoyu thought that before her fame spread further, she should work hard to improve her work. This would be the best thing for a comic creator and would also be more beneficial for her future development.
For several days in a row, Mu Xiaoyu was rushing to finish her manuscript. During the days that Li Chenxu returned, she hardly stepped out of the apartment or went online.
Mu Xiaoyu knew very well that if people of Li Chenxu and Xu Sulin made any move, the media would definitely take action.
If Li Chenxu hadn't noticed these things, the images of the two of them together might have already gone viral online.
She didn't want to upset herself, so she simply didn't look at anything.
This situation continued until Li Chenxu returned. The day Li Chenxu returned was exactly seven days after she left. In those seven days, apart from contacting Mu Xiaoyu on the night of the first day he left, he had not contacted Mu Xiaoyu once again.
This time, Mu Xiaoyu was patient and did not take the initiative to contact Li Chenxu.
The moment Li Chenxu opened the door to return home, Mu Xiaoyu could no longer suppress her longing for him. She rushed towards him and hugged him tightly, practically clinging to him.
Fortunately, Li Chenxu reacted quickly and caught Mu Xiaoyu. He then lifted Mu Xiaoyu up with one hand and walked towards the living room, asking, "Have you been eating well while I was away this past week?"
Mu Xiaoyu hugged Li Chenxu's neck tightly, buried her head in his neck, and gently bit it. Only after hearing Li Chenxu inhale did she release him with satisfaction.
"I'm not a child, how could I not eat properly? But you, you better tell me honestly why you haven't contacted me even once this week!"
As she spoke, she glared at Li Chenxu with her eyebrows raised, pretending to be angry and fierce. However, she looked more like a cat with its fur standing on end, not intimidating at all, but rather a little cute.
Li Chenxu hadn't seen Mu Xiaoyu for a week and missed her terribly. Seeing her like this now, his previously empty heart seemed to be instantly filled.
He hugged Mu Xiaoyu tightly, walked to the sofa and sat down. He didn't explain immediately, but kissed Mu Xiaoyu's lips before saying, "I was afraid you would overthink it, so I didn't call."
"Afraid I'll overthink it?"
Mu Xiaoyu repeated Li Chenxu's words, and then she remembered the photos that Song Yin had sent her last time, and she felt a pang of sadness.
She pouted slightly and said somewhat angrily, "If you haven't done anything wrong, why would you be afraid that I'll overthink things?"
"Did you know that Xu Sulin and I were abroad together?"
Instead of answering, Li Chenxu asked a question. Mu Xiaoyu snorted softly and did not reply, which was taken as tacit agreement.
Seeing this, Li Chenxu smiled, his face showing a hint of satisfied joy.
In this situation, if it were when he and Mu Xiaoyu were together before, they might have already started arguing.
Now, Mu Xiaoyu is patiently waiting for him to return, without making a scene, clearly choosing to believe him and wait for his explanation. Compared to before, things are much better now; there has definitely been progress.
Thinking about it this way, Li Chenxu's smile deepened.
He hugged Mu Xiaoyu tightly, rested his head on her shoulder, and slowly said, "You should also know that the Li family and the Xu family are on good terms, right?"
"Of course I know, you said it before. But so what? You also said before that it was the Li family and the Xu family, not you and Xu Sulin."
Mu Xiaoyu's words were full of jealousy. She believed that there was nothing between Li Chenxu and Xu Sulin, but that didn't mean she wouldn't be jealous when she saw Xu Sulin and Li Chenxu being so close.
She'd better give Li Chenxu a satisfactory explanation. If he doesn't, she won't let him off so easily.
Li Chenxu enjoyed seeing Mu Xiaoyu jealous, and the deeper her jealousy, the happier he was. However, fearing that Mu Xiaoyu might actually get angry and explode, Li Chenxu didn't show it too obviously.
Hearing this, he coughed lightly and continued, "You're right. I've already taken action against the Xu family for what Xu Sulin did back then. The Xu family was already on its last legs, and what happened to them in the end had nothing to do with me. However, when Xu Sulin was in charge of the Li family, he obtained five percent of the Li family's shares. Moreover, in recent years, the Xu family secretly bought many scattered shares of the Li family. Now, if you calculate it, the Xu family owns at least ten percent of the Li family's shares."
"Did your dad give it to her?"
