Guo Xiwen also chimed in at this time:
"Miss, I think your father is right.

It wouldn't hurt to get involved in this company's affairs earlier. You're so smart, if you put in the effort, you might be able to run the company better than your father in the future!"

Lin Muxi listened quietly without saying a word.

In fact, she had no interest in doing business.

The open and covert struggles in the business world and various complicated affairs.

In her opinion, it is far less pure and beautiful than what she loves.

However, at this moment, Lin Muxi was really surprised by the attitude of stepmother Guo Xiwen.

She wondered in her heart, was this woman saying these things from the heart, or did she have other motives?
But no matter whether Guo Xiwen's action was sincere or there was a hidden mystery, Lin Muxi didn't want to explore it too much.

After all, the rhythm and direction of one's life should not be easily disrupted by these unpredictable words.

Seeing that Lin Muxi was determined and really unwilling to get involved in the company's affairs, Lin Haotian couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

He had finally managed to reconcile his relationship with his daughter and establish this hard-earned father-daughter bond, and he really didn't want the relationship to break down again because of this incident.

After thinking for a moment, he sighed slightly and said:

"Since you don't have this idea now, Dad won't force you. Just do what you want."

After hearing what his father said, Lin Muxi felt a little relieved.

She raised her head slightly, with a hint of unnoticeable expectation in her tone:

"Dad, Qingming Festival is coming soon, I want to go back to Yuecheng with Chen Chen."

Lin Haotian was slightly stunned. He didn't expect his daughter to suddenly make such a request.

Yuecheng is a place that carries many memories, including their former home and many memories of Lin Muxi's childhood.

and also……

He was silent for a while, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes.

"You are already grown up. If you want to go and pay respect to your mother, go ahead."

A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Muxi's eyes. She didn't expect her father to agree so easily.

She quickly said, "Thank you, Dad."

Lin Haotian nodded.
"There will be a lot of people on Qingming Festival, and the roads will be congested. I'll arrange a private plane to take you back."

Lin Muxi smiled sweetly, "Yeah, okay."

Seeing that the matter was settled and she had nothing to do with it, Guo Xiwen smiled and picked up Lin Muyu, saying softly:

"Baby, let's go take a nap and say goodbye to daddy, sister, and brother-in-law."

Having said that, he turned and walked towards the bedroom.

Chen Chen and Lin Muxi chatted with Lin Haotian for a while, and before they knew it, it was three or four o'clock.

At this time, Chen Chen looked at the time and felt that it was almost time to return, so he stood up and said:

"Uncle Lin, it's getting late. Let's go back."

Lin Haotian frowned slightly and said:

"You finally came back, can't you sleep at home for a night before leaving?

It's a rare occasion for the whole family to get together, so you should spend more time with an old man like me."

Lin Muxi explained briefly:

"Dad, we still have some important things to take care of. And Qingming Festival is coming soon, so some preparations need to be made in advance.

Don't worry, we will come back to see you as soon as we have time."

"Well, since you're busy, I, an old man, won't force you to stay. Butler, take their things to the car."

Lin Haotian waved his hand slightly, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

After Chen Chen and Lin Muxi left, Lin Haotian was the only one left in the huge living room.

He sat quietly on the sofa, an indescribable feeling of loneliness quietly spreading over him.

Mother Wang had been watching Lin Haotian's expression and felt a little sorry for him seeing him so lonely.

She walked over and said softly, "Sir, don't take it too seriously. Miss and Mr. Chen really have important matters to deal with."

Lin Haotian raised his head slightly, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes:
"Oh? What are they busy with?"

Mother Wang thought for a moment, then recalled:

"I've heard them occasionally mentioning these days that they seem to be planning to open something...

Comics website, it sounds like they have a lot going on, pretty busy.”

Lin Haotian nodded, a faint smile on his face:

“So that’s how it is. It’s a good thing for young people to have their own ideas and pursuits.

The internet is developing rapidly now, and the comics industry has great potential. I hope they can achieve something.”

Seeing that Lin Haotian seemed to be relieved a little, Wang Ma continued:

“Sir, Miss and Mr. Chen are both enterprising people, so you can rest assured.

They are all thinking of you, and they will definitely come back to see you often after they are done with this busy period."

Lin Haotian looked at the setting sun outside the window and murmured, "I know, but..."

If they really made a career, Xiaoxi would leave him.

……

The driver sent Chen Chen and Lin Muxi back to the community and helped them carry their belongings up before leaving.

Chen Chen walked into the house, came to the sofa, sat down relaxedly, then stretched his body and breathed a sigh of relief.

The first time I met my parents went smoothly.

Lin Muxi sat down next to Chen Chen, then naturally reached out her hand, gently hugged his arm, tilted her head, and asked:

"Senior, how do you feel about meeting my father this time?"

Chen Chen turned his head and looked at Lin Muxi's expectant eyes. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a relaxed smile:

"It's fine. Your father is very easygoing and doesn't put any pressure on me. As for your stepmother..."

Chen Chen paused slightly, thinking about his words, "Although I can't quite see through her, but overall she's still okay."

Lin Muxi leaned lightly on Chen Chen's shoulder, her voice soft:

"I can't see through her either, but it doesn't matter. We don't need to care too much about her. We just need to live our lives well."

Chen Chen nodded: "Yeah."

The two of them just sat quietly on the sofa, snuggling up to each other.

Even if we don’t talk, as long as we are by each other’s side, it is better than a thousand words.

I don’t know how long it took.

Lin Muxi suddenly raised his head.

Chen Chen was startled by her and their heads almost hit each other.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked.

Lin Muxi slowly turned his head, looked straight at Chen Chen, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

But this smile, no matter how you look at it, is a bit...

Uh, it makes me feel creepy and indescribable.

However, the words that came out of her mouth immediately afterwards seemed to have an invisible magic that instantly made people's hearts flutter and unable to stop.

"Brother~"

Lin Muxi's voice was gentle, and her warm breath gently sprayed on Chen Chen's face.

In an instant, Chen Chen felt his body tense up uncontrollably.

He probably, perhaps, guessed in his heart that Lin Muxi was remembering something.
