Chapter 59 One Bite for You, One Bite for Me

"Yun Shunzian, what's going on?"

Soon, Yun Ruizhi and Liu Ling rushed over. Seeing the chaotic scene, Yun Ruizhi sternly questioned Yun Shunzian.

Liu Ling, on the other hand, quickly helped Yun Rong up: "Rongrong, who hurt you like this? Who was it!"

Seeing Liu Ling's furious expression, the crowd's opinion of them, mother and daughter, worsened.

"They've already decided it was someone else before even figuring out the situation. What kind of people are this mother and daughter pair."

"Look at the lipstick marks on that man's clothes, what a disgrace!"

...

Yun Shunzian looked at Yun Ruizhi and Liu Ling, their clothes disheveled, and her eyes instantly blurred with tears.

At this time, her mother had only been gone a short while, and how could Yun Ruizhi be so unconcerned, mingling with Liu Ling.

Sensing the dampness on his shoulder, Mu Qi's icy gaze fixed directly on Yun Ruizhi: "Yun Ruizhi, she is Madame Mu first, and only then your nominal daughter. Watch your attitude!"

Yun Ruizhi was reprimanded by someone much younger than himself, and he was naturally displeased. However, due to Mu Qi's power, he dared not say much.

Hearing the whispers of the people around him, Yun Ruizhi felt utterly humiliated.

"Enough, stop shouting," Yun Ruizhi snapped irritably at Liu Ling.

Yun Ruizhi didn't dare to yell at anyone else present, as given the precarious state of the Yun Corporation, he couldn't afford to offend anyone.

Liu Ling was stunned by the shout, but also calmed down.

Without time to look at Yun Rong, who had fallen to the ground, Liu Ling immediately took out her phone and dialed 112.

Yun Rong's birthday banquet thus concluded in a farce.

The guests, in twos and threes, left the Yun residence, as if they had witnessed a joke, their discussions continuing all the way.

"Let's go home, Mu Qi," Yun Shunzian said, her voice still thick with a heavy nasal tone from crying.

Mu Qi waited for a moment, and seeing that Yun Shunzian had no intention of getting off him, he cupped her in his arms and picked her up.

Yun Shunzian rested her chin on Mu Qi's shoulder, gazing blankly as the place she had lived for over a decade receded further from her.

Suddenly, Zuo Nan's figure appeared in Yun Shunzian's line of sight. Yun Shunzian suddenly remembered what Zuo Nan had told her at the hospital that day.

He had said that at Yun Rong's birthday banquet, he would ask her for the Mu Corporation's bid proposal.

She just hadn't expected life to be so unpredictable; Yun Rong's birthday banquet had ended before evening.

Judging by Zuo Nan's panting appearance, he must have just arrived.

Yun Shunzian was in no mood to waste her energy on that scumbag. So, she pretended not to see him, burying her face in Mu Qi's shoulder and closing her eyes.

Feeling the weight on his shoulder, Mu Qi walked even more steadily.

-----

"We're here," Mu Qi said as he carried Yun Shunzian into the living room of Qi Yuan, looking at her who was still clinging to him.

He dared not say "home," for he knew Yun Shunzian had never considered Qi Yuan her home.

If Yun Shunzian could stay by his side, Mu Qi would meticulously cooperate with her every notion.

Even so, in Yun Shunzian's eyes, he remained someone she didn't particularly like.

Yun Shunzian was a whiner: "Sleepy." At this moment, Yun Shunzian's only thought was how safe she felt in Mu Qi's arms.

"Eat something before you sleep, otherwise you'll feel unwell."

"Mmm~~~" Hearing this, Yun Shunzian struggled to sit up. She knew that if she didn't eat, Mu Qi would go straight to his study.

She had to supervise Mu Qi's eating.

"Then feed me. You take a bite, I take a bite." Yun Shunzian, having just woken up, had a lazy and slightly hoarse voice, more alluring than when she usually acted cute.

Mu Qi paused for a moment. Then, he signaled to Aunt Ning with his head and, holding Yun Shunzian, walked towards the sofa.

Aunt Ning followed with a bowl in her hands.

Mu Qi released Yun Shunzian, and she immediately clung tightly to him, freeing his hands.

Seeing this, Aunt Ning handed him the porridge. Mu Qi held the bowl in one hand and the spoon in the other, bringing the porridge to Yun Shunzian's lips.

Yun Shunzian lazily squinted her eyes and, from Mu Qi's hand, sucked the porridge from the spoon.

Mu Qi watched patiently as Yun Shunzian ate bit by bit.

Finally, after Yun Shunzian finished, Mu Qi immediately took another spoonful and brought it to her lips.

However, this time Yun Shunzian pushed Mu Qi's spoon away, unintentionally spilling the porridge onto him.

Yun Shunzian, not yet fully awake, didn't realize she had caused trouble.

Mu Qi merely glanced at the part stained with porridge, confirmed it wouldn't reach Yun Shunzian, and then took another spoonful of porridge to offer her.

But again, it was pushed away by Yun Shunzian.

"Young Master," Aunt Ning couldn't help but speak as she saw Mu Qi covered in porridge from Yun Shunzian.

However, at a mere glance from Mu Qi, Aunt Ning lowered her head.

"Eat a little more," Yun Shunzian, still groggy, realized Mu Qi was speaking to her and finally returned from the land of dreams.

"No, Mu Qi, it's your turn. A bite for you, a bite for me." Yun Shunzian forced her dazed eyes open. Then, she took the spoon from Mu Qi's hand and placed it by his lips.

"Ah~" Yun Shunzian opened her mouth wide, indicating.

Mu Qi was stunned. Had he not misheard? Was that truly what she meant!

Under Yun Shunzian's gaze, Mu Qi slowly opened his lips and swallowed the porridge.

This was the first time Yun Shunzian had watched Mu Qi eat so closely. At this moment, images of Mu Qi slowly opening his lips and his Adam's apple bobbing as he swallowed replayed in her mind.

She subconsciously asked, "Is it delicious? Mu Qi."

"Mmm." It seemed sweeter than usual.

Mu Qi watched Yun Shunzian just looking at him without moving, assuming he knew her thoughts, and his expression turned cold: "Aunt Ning, get another spoon."

"Yes, Young Master."

Hearing Mu Qi's cold voice, Yun Shunzian immediately reacted: "Why do you need another spoon? Mu Qi, you've already used my spoon, is it too late to be disgusted with me?" Yun Shunzian said unhappily.

When he kissed her before, why wasn't Mu Qi so disgusted? Hmph, such a player.

Hearing this, Mu Qi looked at Yun Shunzian in surprise: "Then what do you use?"

Yun Shunzian waved the hand holding the spoon: "I use this. Do you think I'm like you, needing someone else to wash another spoon?"

Aunt Ning, who had already arrived with a spoon: "..." It wasn't that much trouble.

Yun Shunzian, while speaking, brought the porridge to her own mouth with the spoon in her hand.

Mu Qi watched Yun Shunzian's actions closely, his eyes deep.

Then, Mu Qi gave Aunt Ning a look, and she immediately understood.

Aunt Ning walked behind the spoon-holding hand and approached them: "Young Master, all the spoons are currently being sterilized."
