“Xiaye, please sit down and finish this meal with me before heading back.”

Xi Mushan raised his head and looked at Xi Xiaye. There was a great deal of struggle and complication in his eyes. Although Xi Xiaye could not see through him, she could sense that he was feeling sad and lonely. In the end, she sat back down.

Xi Mushan refilled her glass with a smile even though he seemed sad and cold. His voice was quiet. “I know you’ve been longing for us to get back together, but between us…”

Xi Xiaye raised her head slightly and studied him. She waited, but Xi Mushan did not finish the sentence.

She looked at her wine glass. His face appeared inverted as she gazed through the glass. She could sense an unspoken terrible feeling.

She seemed to understand. There was an uncrossable realm between Shen Wenna and Xi Mushan. The presence of Yue Lingsi and Xi Xinyi constantly reminded Shen Wenna about Xi Mushan’s betrayal. After all, she was a prideful person!

She stopped talking and just ate in silence, oblivious of how the food tasted. All the wine she drank could not push the sour feeling down her throat.

It was 1 p.m. when they left the restaurant. The sun was warm and it was crowded outside.

Xi Mushan offered to send Xi Xiaye back to the office, but she rejected. She was planning to walk back since it was not that far away. He hesitated for a moment before folding his arms and following her.

The father-daughter pair walked through the park. It was windy and there was a family in front of them. The daughter was riding on the father’s shoulder while the mother was holding a bag as she followed behind them with a gentle smile. Their laughter reached Xi Xiaye’s ears.

She felt a heartache as she heard them.

Xi Xiaye suddenly halted her steps and looked at the family in front of them slowly walking away, she sighed, “Father, if we’re still a family, if we can be like them, that’d be great.”

She seemed sad and nostalgic. “Unfortunately, there are things that we’re unable to protect.”

Her words stunned Xi Mushan. He could not find the right words to reply.

They went forward. As they approached near the plaza in front of Glory World Corporation, Secretary Ah Hui’s voice came from the back. “Mayor, Madam and Ms. Xinyi are here!”

They stopped and then turned around to see a luxury car parked by the roadside. The door opened and a pale Xi Xinyi came out, followed by Yue Lingsi.

The mother-daughter pair advanced towards them.

Xi Xiaye glared at them and then glanced over at Xi Mushan. His expression and eyes were dark. She then turned around. “I’ll head back first.”

She walked forward.

Xi Mushan turned his head around and saw that Xi Xiaye had already walked past the lamp post beside him. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he kept quiet and just watched her walk away.

However, someone was not going to let her go so easily. Just as Xi Xiaye just walked past the lamp post, Yue Lingsi’s scathing voice reached her.

“Xi Xiaye, stop right there! I’m here for you!”

Her sharp tone had Xi Xiaye smiling coldly. She wanted to ignore her and continue forward, but a figure overtook her and blocked her path.

It was Yue Lingsi.

Xi Xiaye raised her head slightly and glared warningly at her. “Move away.”

“You just want to create chaos for everyone, don’t you? You’re just causing trouble for the whole world. Your grandmother almost died because of you!”

With Xi Mushan there, Yue Lingsi tried to suppress her voice.

“She’s still alive, isn’t she?” Xi Xiaye was calm as she gave a brief reply.

“You!”

Yue Lingsi’s expression hardened. As she was about to continue, Xi Xinyi’s voice came from the back—

“Mother!”

Her tone was raspy and soft as she dragged Yue Lingsi aside, her pale face seeming a little strained. Her gaze towards Xi Xiaye was complicated. Xi Xiaye looked at her coldly and noticed some mixed feelings in her eyes.

She seemed to be angry but was trying to suppress it, and there was a fit of hidden jealousy within her!

Was she mistaken?

Xi Xiaye squinted her eyes as she looked at Xi Xinyi’s. At that moment, Xi Xinyi closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around her stomach. “Mother, please don’t be like this. I deserved it.”

“It’s not just about you, Xinyi. She’s just disgracing the whole Xi family!” Yue Lingsi said sternly.

Xi Xinyi stopped Yue Lingsi from going forward. She glanced at Xi Xiaye, enraged to see her calm expression and her acting like she was enjoying making fun of them. Her hands balled up. It was not easy for her to endure her anger.

“Xiaye and Mu Yuchen got married at the end of last year. Don’t you think that this is all a joke?”

Han Yifeng’s words echoed in her ears, and her face turned pale all of a sudden.

Who would expect things to turn out this way?

Xi Xiaye had gotten close to Mu Yuchen… A man like that…

No wonder she could easily get 70% of Yueying’s shares!

Xi Xinyi was not a stupid person. Nothing good would happen if she just let Yue Lingsi enrage Xi Xiaye now.

“Xiaye, you should head back for now.” Xi Mushan’s rock-solid voice came towards them as he walked forward and stood before Yue Lingsi.

Xi Xiaye nodded as she went forward and ignored them.

“Mushan, she…!”

As Yue Lingsi was about to say something else, Xi Mushan said coldly, “Be careful of what you say. Don’t tamper your own image, Mayoress!”

“Father! How can you speak to Mother like that?!” Xi Xinyi’s eyes widened and she stared at Xi Mushan unhappily.

Xi Mushan glanced over at Xi Xiaye who was getting into the car. He closed his eyes and said, “Let’s go back now. This is not a place to cause trouble.” He then walked towards his car.

“Mushan!” Yue Lingsi’s expression changed as she tried to catch up with him.

“Mother, let’s talk when we get back!” Xi Xinyi held Yue Lingsi back with a deep frown on her face.
