Chapter 73: Today's work is to keep her company

ht curves in all the right places. She's literally a walking clothes rack.Fu Lingxiao gave a genuine evaluation: "They are all very handsome."Even the sales assistant couldn't help but praise, "This y...When the little girl caught her breath, Fu Lingxiao raised his hand and rubbed her head, "I'll go tell Wu Guanjia to prepare lunch. You wash up and come down."

Okay!

Mù Xīng ran to the bathroom, Fù Líng Xiāo got up and went downstairs.

At this moment, Wu the Butler was standing at the foot of the stairs on the first floor, occasionally glancing up to the second floor. His heart was filled with worry. The young master had been up there for so long, there wasn't a sound, and he didn't know what had happened to Xiao Muxing.

Finally, when the man came down, he immediately asked, "Master, is Little Muxing alright"

"It's fine."

Fu Lingxiao ordered, "Wu Shu, please prepare lunch right away."

It's almost two o'clock, that girl must be starving.

"Good."

The kitchen was already prepared, and soon over a dozen dishes, colorful, fragrant, and delicious, were served to the table.

Mu Xing was famished and buried her head into the meal, devouring it in a whirlwind.

Fu Lingxiao watched the little girl's engrossed expression with infinite satisfaction welling up in his heart.

Having worried for half the day, Wu Guanjia felt relieved to see Mu Xing's appetite was so good.

After the meal.

Mu Xing puffed out her round belly and gave the man a sly smile: "Little uncle, I've overeaten again. I'll rest here for a while. You can go if you're busy."

Not busy.

His job today was to keep company with this little girl.

Fu Lingxiao walked over, picked up Mu Xing and sat her on his lap. He covered her small abdomen with his big palm and massaged it clockwise.

"Mmm... so comfortable."

Mu Xing lazily leaned against the man's arms, comfortably squinting her eyes, "Little Uncle is so amazing, knowing that this can promote gastrointestinal motility and aid digestion."

That's common sense.

The fact is, the last time Mu Xing ate too much and dragged him for a walk, he looked it up online afterwards. Judging by the little girl's wolfish appetite when she ate, he was certain he would need it later.

As expected, this comes in handy.

Mu Xing said, "No, no. Many people even if they know, wouldn't use the correct massage technique. But Uncle Xiao's technique is very professional, the pressure and rhythm are just right."

Fu Lingxiao pursed his lips and said nothing.

Can't he be unprofessional He practiced for so long.

After half an hour of massage, Mu Xing finally felt her stomach was no longer swollen. She grabbed the man's big hand, "Uncle Xiao, your hands must be sore, let me knead them for you."

"No, my hands aren't sore."

Fu Lingxiao reversed the little girl's soft hand, revealing the bite marks on her wrist. He asked, "How did you get bitten by a snake When did it happen"

"Oh, this" Mu Xing said nonchalantly, "I was bitten by someone at school this morning, but it's okay. I already took the antidote, Uncle don't worry."

Fu Lingxiao frowned, "How could there be a snake in school"

"There's a lot of greenery in the school, so it's normal to see snakes."

Mu Xing's face was beaming with a sweet smile.

Though I was seething with anger inside.

What she dreaded most was making her uncle worry over trifles. But that damned murderer, by letting a snake bite her, forced her to take an antidote and fall asleep, giving others the chance to exploit the situation and causing her uncle to abandon his work to save her.

She must find the killer and give them a severe lesson!

Recalling that time, her little uncle rushed to save her. Seeing his anxious and flustered appearance, Mu Xing's anger instantly transformed into sadness.

She pouted and shifted her body to turn around and hug the man, "Uncle, I'm sorry."

"Hm"

Fu Lingxiao showed a puzzled look, how did this little girl suddenly apologize to him

Mu Xing buried her head in the man's chest, making muffled sounds: "I was accidentally caught and couldn't escape in time. I made my little uncle so busy and worried about me."

This silly fool!

He was the one who caused her so much pain, but she still felt sorry for him.

It's truly heartbreaking how foolish they are.

Fu Lingxiao's heart softened beyond measure. He held Mu Xing tenderly, leaning down to kiss her hair, "You have nothing to apologize for. It's me who should be apologizing. I didn't protect you well, I didn't arrive in time to save you, and let you face all of that alone. I'm sorry."

“I’m sorry,” these three words, from that man who was once so high and mighty, looking down on everyone else.

No one would believe it, not even Fu Lingxiao himself could believe it.

But he did say so.

That was so sincere.

Even so, he couldn't express even one-thousandth of his remorse.

"Uncle, don't say sorry. It's not your fault, Uncle. You've been very good to me and I'm doing well now."

The little girl comforted him, her soft and sweet voice was especially pleasing to the ear.

Fu Lingxiao rubbed the little girl's head, a faint smile curving his lips.

At this moment, Uncle Wu hurried into the dining room, carrying Mu Xing's small schoolbag in his hand, "Little Mu Xing, someone called you."

Seeing the man holding the little girl in an "affectionate" manner, Wu Guanjia felt a pang of regret. He really had come at the wrong time!

The phone in the school bag was happily singing, Mu Xing jumped down from the man's leg, took the school bag and opened it, took out the phone and looked at it. A brilliant smile appeared on her small face: "Qiong Bao!"

On the other end of the phone.

Shen Qiong heard Mu Xing's voice full of vitality, only then did she truly feel at ease.

“Little Star, I just checked the surveillance footage outside the changing rooms. I saw two suspicious people, one is Zhao Lu from our class and the other is Tan Jiaqian from the music department. Zhao Lu doesn't seem to know what's going on, but I remember that Tan Jiaqian is very good friends with Tang Yingying.”

Shen Qiong told Mu Xing the clues she had found.

Fu Lingxiao was beside her, and Mu Xing didn't dare to say much. She just said, "Okay, I'll go to school tomorrow and study again. I won't come to military training today, please take a leave of absence for me."

"Well, I was going to treat you to a big dinner tonight, but I'll have to reschedule it for tomorrow night. You take good care of yourself and get some rest. See you tomorrow!"

"Okay, Qiongbao, see you later."

As soon as Mu Xing hung up the phone, Fu Lingxiao's phone rang. He took out his phone and glanced at it before answering, putting it to his ear. "What's up"

Shen Yi just returned from a business trip and immediately called Fu Lingxiao upon receiving the news, "I heard that Wang Rongqian kidnapped my sister-in-law as soon as I landed. What's the situation"

Fu Lingxiao said faintly, "It's nothing, it's already resolved."

"Don't even say it, I don't want to hear it!" Shen Yi said with a huff of arrogance, then added, "What about my sister-in-law How is she doing now Is her mood still stable You have to comfort her well!"

She's fine. Nothing else is going on.

Fu Lingxiao was always concise when speaking to others, never saying more than necessary.

Shen Yi also got used to it, "Okay then, you stay with your sister-in-law and we'll talk about it at your company tomorrow."

Fu Lingxiao hung up the phone, got up and walked over to pick up the little girl who was standing there watching him make the call, and left the dining room.

Mu Xing hugged the man's neck and asked, "Little uncle, what do you want to do this afternoon"d with uncontainable anger, "If it weren't for your master's face, I would have called the police and arrested you long ago! You better be honest and hand over the bronze disk, or don't blame me for b...
