Chapter 469 I Didn't Touch Her
Li Chenxu had long known that Mu Xiaoyu would be unable to hold back her questions. Upon hearing this, he reached out and affectionately flicked the tip of Mu Xiaoyu's nose, then smiled and said, "So eager? Eat your noodles first, and I'll tell you slowly."
Mu Xiaoyu was now very resistant to Li Chenxu's actions. Upon seeing this, a hint of impatience appeared in her clear black and white eyes, but it was fleeting and so fast that it was almost impossible to catch.
Like Li Chenxu, Mu Xiaoyu also has a sensitive stomach. In addition, it was quite late, so Li Chenxu didn't make much noodles for Mu Xiaoyu. Mu Xiaoyu focused on eating the noodles and finished them in no time.
Li Chenxu was a bit of a germaphobe. After Mu Xiaoyu finished eating her noodles, he opened the window to let in some fresh air, washed the dishes, and cleaned up the kitchen downstairs before coming up.
Seeing that Mu Xiaoyu was still lying in bed, he tried to pull her up while saying, "You just finished eating, don't lie down, it's not good for your stomach."
"Don't pull me, I'm really tired right now."
Mu Xiaoyu used to really like how Li Chenxu managed her, and she also really liked how Li Chenxu acted when he was jealous, because Li Chenxu liked her and cared about her, that's why he acted that way.
However, now, she really doesn't want to see Li Chenxu treat her like he used to.
It wasn't that she didn't like him anymore, but whenever Li Chenxu treated her like this, the image of Li Chenxu and Bai Luo pretending to be intimate would involuntarily appear in her mind.
She would think about the future fate of the Bai family and Bai Luo.
Thinking about all this, she simply couldn't face Li Chenxu properly.
Mu Xiaoyu knew that these things might not be entirely Li Chenxu's fault. If anyone was to blame, it was her. If she were a little stronger and didn't need Li Chenxu to protect her in everything, perhaps Li Chenxu wouldn't have had to go to such lengths.
However, she really couldn't control herself.
So when Li Chenxu acted like this, Mu Xiaoyu immediately shook off his hand, her entire body radiating resistance.
Li Chenxu didn't say anything, just looked at Mu Xiaoyu, it was hard to tell whether he was angry or had other thoughts in his mind.
After what seemed like an eternity, Li Chenxu suddenly smiled. He half-squatted down beside the bed, looked up at Mu Xiaoyu, and said gently, "Alright, if you don't want to get up, then don't. Don't get so angry; it's bad for your health. But this is a one-time exception; you can't do this again."
If it were the previous Li Chenxu, even if he didn't lose his temper at this moment, he wouldn't be as gentle as he is now.
Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but glance at Li Chenxu with a strange look, but when her gaze fell on his gentle eyes, she immediately turned her head away.
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's awkwardness, Li Chenxu felt both annoyed and amused. But even so, he still had to appease his wife after making a mistake, otherwise one day she might really be stolen away by those little brats.
Thinking of this, Li Chenxu covered his mouth and coughed lightly, then said to Mu Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, now I'll tell you about the Bai family and some things I've been doing lately..."
Upon hearing Li Chenxu talk about these things, Mu Xiaoyu immediately became completely focused.
Seeing this, Li Chenxu did not hesitate and began to tell the story of how Mu Xiaoyu's mother obtained the clue more than a month ago.
Mu Pengzheng possessed crucial evidence that directly proved who Lei Chao's descendant was. Mu Xiaoyu's mother knew this immediately after deciphering the code.
However, it was precisely because he knew who Lei Chao's descendants were that he was even more worried about Mu Xiaoyu's safety than before, and naturally he brought up the matter of Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu getting a divorce.
In order not to arouse Mu Xiaoyu's suspicion, Li Chenxu began to intentionally or unintentionally distance himself from Mu Xiaoyu from that day on. Sometimes he would even pretend to be impatient with Mu Xiaoyu, all so that Mu Xiaoyu would not suspect anything and would sever her relationship with him.
As for Lei Chao's son, it was none other than Bai Ye.
In fact, when Li Chenxu first learned of this result, he was somewhat incredulous. However, after repeatedly investigating and confirming the clues left behind by Mu Pengzheng, he finally believed it.
So Li Chenxu found Bai Luo and asked her to team up with him to act out this play.
Bai Luo initially cooperated with Li Chenxu mainly because he felt guilty towards Mu Xiaoyu and wanted to make amends. However, Bai Ye and the Bai family also became involved later.
No matter how the Bai family treats Bai Luo, Bai Luo will always be a member of the Bai family. What Bai Luo did this time can be considered as repaying the Bai family's kindness in raising him for so many years.
Mu Xiaoyu could more or less guess what would happen next. Although Li Chenxu had already grasped most of the Bai family's abuse of power, that was not enough. If he wanted the Bai family to never be able to turn things around, he needed some key evidence.
As for that evidence, Bai Luo needs to retrieve it personally.
"But the Bai family wants to harm you. They should be more wary of you since you're with Bai Luo. Why would they let their guard down and let you get the evidence?"
Li Chenxu was not surprised by Mu Xiaoyu's question. Perhaps many people who knew about these things would have the same thoughts as Mu Xiaoyu.
But people of the Bai family's status think far more deeply than they do.
The Bai family targeted Li Chenxu because of Bai Ye. However, the Bai family lowered their guard against Li Chenxu for their own sake.
There's no rush to deal with Li Chenxu and the Li family. While Bai Luo and Li Chenxu are together, they can extract enough benefits from the Li family to strengthen the Bai family. Once the matter is settled, the Bai family will surpass the Li family, and dealing with Li Chenxu will be a piece of cake.
In order to demonstrate the Bai family's sincerity, they naturally relaxed their treatment of Li Chenxu in many ways.
"The Bai family monitored Bai Luo and me for a long time, almost day and night."
"Without distinction between day and night?"
Mu Xiaoyu repeated Li Chenxu's words, her expression suddenly turning strange. She could understand the saying that if you're going to put on an act, you have to go all the way. But if it really was as Li Chenxu said, wouldn't that mean the two of them would be sleeping together every night?
Although Mu Xiaoyu harbored great resentment towards Li Chenxu, she still felt uneasy after hearing Li Chenxu say this.
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu like this, Li Chenxu instantly realized that he had said something wrong and quickly explained, "Xiaoyu, don't worry, Bai Luo and I didn't do anything. Even though we were lying on the same bed, there was something between us. Apart from holding hands, I didn't touch her at all!"
