Mu Yiqing sat down on the sofa and looked around. The environment was elegant and the decorations were exquisite.
Mu Ning Jing brought out a cup of tea from the kitchen and handed it to Mu Yiqing. "Uncle Mu, have some tea."
Mu Yiqing took it and placed it on the coffee table. He looked at Mu Ning Jing who sat down opposite him. "Are you used to living here?"
Mu Ning Jing subconsciously looked at the new house that she moved in yesterday and nodded.
Mu Yiqing nodded as well. Then, he looked at Mu Ning Jing apologetically. "Ningning, I'm sorry about what happened that day."
Mu Ning Jing knew that Mu Yiqing was talking about the incident where Yu Anna slapped her. At that time, she was shocked and confused. Later, when she thought about it, Mu Yiqing actually slapped Yu Anna in order to protect her. This was something she did not expect. She felt that Mu Yiqing was really good to her.
In the past, only Zhao Xiangping treated her well. After Zhao Xiangping passed away, Mu Ning Jing had never felt the care of an elder. Now that Mu Yiqing could treat her like this, she especially cherished this relationship. Therefore, even if Yu Anna was full of hostility towards her, she could not vent her anger on Mu Yiqing. "Uncle Mu, it's all in the past."
"It's all my fault. I've spoiled her too much." Mu Yiqing's tone was filled with self-blame as he sighed softly.
Mu Ning Jing pursed her lips and remained silent. Although Yu Anna was full of hostility towards her, she did not like to speak ill of others behind their backs.
"By the way, this is for you." Mu Yiqing took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and placed it on the coffee table.
Mu Ning Jing looked at Mu Yiqing with a puzzled expression.
Mu Yiqing explained, "After what happened that day, I knew that it would be difficult for you to live in your original place, so I showed you a house. Although the decoration is not as luxurious as this one, the good thing is that the location is not bad. It's close to your workplace. I just didn't expect you to find a place to live so quickly. There's everything there. You can live there directly. Go back and take a look. You can live on both sides. If you don't want to run around after work, you can live there. "
Mu Ning Jing did not expect Mu Yiqing to be so considerate. She was flattered and shook her head. "Uncle Mu, there's no need …"
Mu Yiqing interrupted Mu Ning Jing. "This happened because of me, so it's my duty to arrange a place for you to stay. Moreover, I've already completed the procedures, so it can't be returned. Take the key. It's your business whether you want to stay or not, but if you refuse, you'll definitely still be angry with Uncle because of that."
"Uncle Mu, I'm not angry with you …"
"Take it. I'll feel better if you take it. Otherwise, I won't have the face to see you in the future." Mu Yiqing looked at Mu Ning Jing with sincerity, as if he had done something terribly wrong to Mu Ning Jing.
Mu Ning Jing thought for a moment and asked, "How long have you been paying rent?"
Mu Yiqing avoided Mu Ning Jing's gaze and lowered his eyes to pick up the tea on the coffee table. "You stay here first. I'll inform you in advance when the rent is due."
At this point, Mu Ning Jing could not refuse Mu Yiqing's kindness. She nodded and agreed. "Thank you, Uncle Mu."
Seeing Mu Ning Jing accept it, Mu Yiqing heaved a sigh of relief. "The house documents are still being processed. I'll bring them to you when it's done."
Mu Ning Jing thought it was a rental contract or something, so she nodded. "Okay."
Mu Ning Jing stayed for lunch. Mu Ning Jing wanted to go out to buy groceries, but Mu Yiqing did not let her. She could only cook a few home-cooked dishes with the ingredients at home. Mu Yiqing ate very happily and even praised Mu Ning Jing. "Your cooking is as good as your mother's."
Mu Ning Jing looked puzzled. "Uncle Mu, didn't you say that you lost contact with my mother after graduating from university? How can you still have the chance to eat my mother's cooking? "
"…" Mu Yiqing was stunned. Then he smiled awkwardly. "Your mother showed her cooking skills when the school organized a picnic."
Mu Ning Jing nodded.
After lunch, Mu Yiqing received a call. There was something in the city that he needed to deal with. When he was about to leave, Mu Ning Jing could tell that Mu Yiqing wanted to say something but was hesitating. She asked him, "Uncle Mu, do you have something to say?"
Mu Yiqing looked at Mu Ning Jing for two seconds and nodded. "There are some things that you might not like to hear, but as your elder, I have to say it."
Mu Ning Jing nodded and looked at Mu Yiqing with a serious expression.
Mu Yiqing cleared his throat. He did not say what was on his mind directly. Instead, he asked Mu Ning Jing, "Do you know what Shen Tingxi does?"
Mu Ning Jing thought for a moment and nodded.
Mu Yiqing felt that Mu Ning Jing might not be very clear. "He forms gangs, sells firearms, kidnaps and extorts. He does all kinds of dangerous things. He lives a life of living on the edge of a knife. Not only is there no guarantee for your future, but he can't even give you the most basic safety.
This kind of man is not only dangerous, but also ruthless, cold, and promiscuous. Before he met you, he had many women. Maybe he's interested in you now, but after a long time, he'll get tired of you and abandon you. What will you do then? "
Previously, Shuxin had told Mu Ning Jing about Shen Tingxi's occupation. Although she did not really understand, she knew that Shen Tingxi's work was dangerous. She just did not expect it to be so dangerous.
When she found out that Shen Tingxi wanted to kill Hu Xin 'er that day, she was afraid and hesitant. However, she never had the thought of leaving Shen Tingxi, and it was the same now.
No matter what kind of person Shen Tingxi was in other people's eyes.
In her heart, he was gentle and considerate, doted on her, accommodated her, and trusted her unconditionally.
As for the past, Shen Tingxi had never hidden it from her.
Mu Ning Jing remembered that when Shen Tingxi proposed to her for the second time, he said that he never thought that he would turn over a new leaf one day. She was the one who changed him. She was the one who made him want to get married and spend the rest of his life with her.
She believed him.
Seeing that Mu Ning Jing was silent, Mu Yiqing said, "Ningning, Uncle knows that it's not appropriate to say this to you. After all, you're in a relationship with him now. However, Uncle can't just watch you fall into the fire pit. Shen Tingxi is not suitable for you. Listen to Uncle's advice and leave him, okay?"
Mu Ning Jing shook her head. "Uncle, I know you're doing this for my own good, but he's really good to me. I won't leave him."
"Ningning …"
Mu Yiqing still wanted to say something, but Mu Ning Jing interrupted him softly. "Uncle Mu, let me know in advance before you come next time. I'll prepare a few dishes for you."
Mu Yiqing knew that Mu Ning Jing was deliberately changing the topic. He sighed in his heart. It seemed that Mu Ning Jing was the same as Yu Anna. She had already given her true feelings to Shen Tingxi. It wouldn't be so easy for her to leave Shen Tingxi.
Did he have to talk to Shen Tingxi like he did with Yu Anna?
He could warn Shen Tingxi not to be with Yu Anna as a father, but what identity should he use to stop Shen Tingxi from getting close to Mu Ning Jing?
Mu Yiqing left worriedly.
Mu Ning Jing sat on the sofa and pondered for a long time. Then she took out her phone and dialed Shen Tingxi's number.
