Chapter 736 Daughter
Early the next day.
Right after Annabelle Xia was done with her quick rinse, Alistair Mu brought her out.
"Where are we going?"
"Have a guess?"
Annabelle Xia looked at Shi Guang, "Bringing me and also Shi Guang? Something must be going on!"
"I am selling the two of you!" Alistair Mu pinched Annabelle Xia's chin and said it.
"Sure, to who?"
"To me of course. Buy one free one, what a sweet deal!" Alistair Mu said conceitedly.
Annabelle Xia broke into a laughter.
At that time, Alistair Mu stretched out his arms, "Give me the baby!"
Annabelle Xia simply passed the boy to Alistair Mu.
They reached the front door of Yun Rui soon enough.
"We are here, let's go!"
Annabelle Xia nodded and got down the car with him.
The moment she got down the car, she saw a huge crowd in front of her.
All of the workers from Yun Rui was standing on both side by the entrance.
"President Mu, Miss Xia, Young master, welcome back!" The workers greeted them uniformly.
Alistair Mu carried Shi Guang and strode inside with Annabelle Xia.
Annabelle Xia held the man's arm.
When they reached the office, Annabelle Xia relaxed herself, "Why didn't you tell me that we are
coming to the company?"
"I want to tell everyone that you, Annabelle Xia's back! You belong to me and you will never be able to
escape me anymore!" Alistair Mu looked at her and said.
Annabelle Xia looked at him and smiled, "I am not thinking about leaving as well!"
Alistair Mu carried Shi Guang and walked towards Annabelle Xia. The man stared her in the eyes, "The
inevitable will come eventually. We must face it sooner or later. Do you think I would be hiding the two
of you for the rest of your life?" Alistair Mu looked at her and enunciated.
Annabelle Xia appreciated his thoughtfulness and the consideration. The husband had done so much
for her and she was just moved.
Annabelle Xia nodded, "I understand!"
"Get some rest first. We have a busy day and I'm afraid you might get too tired later!" Alistair Mu said.
Annabelle Xia, "……"
She didn't know why but she had a feeling that Alistair Mu's words were titillating.
She decided to stop thinking and simply smiled at the man, "President Mu, since you brought me and
Shi Guang over here, I shall leave him in your good hands! I just thought of something to do and I'll be
coming back shortly!"
Alistair Mu was happy that she left Shi Guang to him. The man looked at his wife and he smiled
heartily.
He enjoyed looking at how lively she was, full of ideas.
Annabelle Xia finally got active and that meant the woman had come back for real!
"Where are you going?"
Annabelle Xia looked at him and raised her chin cheekily, "What now? With Shi Guang with you, are
you afraid that I will run away again? I have been taking care of him for so long, it is time for you to
catch up a little! President Mu, I shall leave him in your good hands!" After saying that, she chuckled
and went out his office.
Alistair Mu smiled as he watched her left. The man averted his gaze back to the boy in his arms and he
exclaimed, "My precious baby, now we are left with each other. Let's go, watch how your papa earns
money and provide for you and mummy!"
Shi Guang simply giggled as he followed his father to the working desk.
Outside.
The workers were just excited to see Alistair Mu bringing Annabelle Xia and even Shi Guang to the
company.
The man was simply announcing Annabelle Xia as the wife of the president and Shi Guang would be
the successor of the company!
Even though one year had passed, nothing changed.
When the workers were gossiping about the family, Annabelle Xia came to the design department.
Plenty of her old friends greeted her but they showed more reverence.
The moment Annabelle Xia went into the design department, she went straight to look for Covi.
……
In the coffee shop downstairs. Annabelle Xia looked at Covi and asked, "Come on now, are you still
angry at me?"
"What do you think? You have disappeared for one year!! You never called me, do you even remember
me???" Covi grumbled.
"If I don't, why am I looking for you now?"
Covi drank her juice and bit on her straw. The woman refused to even look at Annabelle Xia.
"Come on now, please forgive me…" Annabelle Xia stretched out her arms and grabbed Covi's hand.
Covi was tickled, "Don't you know how bored I was when you weren't around? I don't even have
another friend to talk to!"
"Why didn't you look for Dorie?"
"She was accompanying by Su's side all the time, she hardly has the time to entertain me at all!"
Covi grabbed her hand back, "Annabelle Xia, you better remember what you said. If you dare to leave
without a word again, I… I'll never talk to you again!"
Annabelle Xia smiled, "Don't worry, I will never do that anymore!"
And Covi let her off. All of a sudden, the friend recalled something, "By the way, was that your baby
with president Mu?"
Annabelle Xia nodded, "Yeah, his name is Shi Guang, my darling Shi Guang!"
"I simply heard about him but I haven't seen him yet!"
"Why not you drop by my place tomorrow?"
"Sure, but you need to get president Mu to approve my leave!"
"No problem!"
The friends continued to talk for a long while before Annabelle Xia went back upstairs.
The moment Annabelle Xia went into Alistair Mu's office, she was surprised. Alistair Mu's working desk
had moved to the couch.
Shi Guang simply sat on Alistair Mu's lap. The father was just busy working and entertaining the baby
at the same time.
His ‘working desk' and the floor was all Shi Guang's toys and titbits.
The office was in a complete mess.
Annabelle Xia's jaw dropped as she walked inside, "I… I left for such a short while and your office is
turned upside down!"
Alistair Mu raised his head and glanced at her properly, "These are all the gifts from the workers to Shi
Guang!"
"President Mu, are you being bribed?"
"Not me, Shi Guang!" Alistair Mu simply used Shi Guang as a convenient front.
Annabelle Xia laughed as she walked over and carried Shi Guang up. The boy was having fun and
reluctant to leave his father.
After that, Alistair Mu got up and stretched a little.
"By the way, you said that we will have a busy day. What is going on?" Annabelle Xia looked at him and
asked.
Alistair Mu checked the time and said, "Confidential information. You will know tonight!"
Annabelle Xia simply smiled back and asked no further.
"What you want to eat for lunch?" The husband asked.
"Anything will do!"
And so, Alistair Mu walked to his desk and asked Jack to book their meal.
Half an hour later, Jack walked into the office.
"President Mu, Miss Xia, the lunch is ready!"
"Just leave it here!" Alistair Mu said.
Jack walked over and put the down. However, all of the man's attentiveness was on Shi Guang.
His excited expression was just humorous.
But Alistair Mu leered at him, "Why are you not getting up?"
Annabelle Xia could tell the assistant's intention and she said, "Jack, do you want to carry him?"
Jack's eyes twinkled, "Can, can I really do that?"
"Of course!" Annabelle Xia walked over and handed Shi Guang to Jack, "Go have fun!"
"Go have fun?" Alistair Mu's face twitched a little.
Jack nodded hurriedly, "Okay, thank you Miss Xia!! I will make sure to take good care of little Shi
Guang and send him back after the two of you are done with lunch!"
"Okay!"
And so, Jack carried Shi Guang and dashed out happily. The assistant was just afraid that Alistair Mu
would stop him.
Right after he left, the husband complained, "Annabelle Xia, how dare you give away our son so
easily?"
Annabelle Xia walked towards the desk and unwrapped her food, "Jack isn't an outsider. I believe he All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
can definitely take good care of Shi Guang!"
"You trust him so much?" Alistair Mu asked again.
Annabelle Xia nodded, "Of course!"
"No way, I am getting my son back!" After saying that, Alistair Mu got up and wanted to leave.
Annabelle Xia hurriedly dragged him back, "Just let Jack take care of him a little while. I guarantee you,
Jack will definitely send him back safe and sound!"
When Alistair Mu looked at Annabelle Xia's confident look, he had no choice but to concede.
Actually, the man trusted Jack. But he just dreaded to be separated from his darling.
"All right, let's hurry and eat! The sooner you are done, the sooner your son comes back!"
Alistair Mu wrapped his food in vex. The man's heart had followed after Shi Guang and even his food
was tasteless…
Annabelle Xia looked at him jovially. Although he had only seen his son for a few days, the father had
gotten so attached to Shi Guang and he seemed to care for the boy even more so than herself…
Outside the office.
Jack walked around triumphantly with the president's baby.
The moment the workers saw that, they gathered around him, "Jack, is that president Mu's baby!?"
"He sure is!"
"Don't tell me you sneaked him out!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!?"
Jack looked at Shi Guang and he was a little stressed out. Had he hugged the boy tighter, he was
afraid to make him uncomfortable. But if he loosened his grip, he was jumpy that he might drop him or
something. He was just carrying him very, very carefully.
"He is just beautiful, he looks more like a girl!" The secretary said.
"That's of course. Both president Mu and Miss Xia are so good looking, he has the genetic jackpot!"
Another female colleague said.
As Jack was carrying Shi Guang around, the little boy wasn't shy or afraid at all. When he saw the
gathering crowd, he smiled at everyone generously. As if he was saying: look at my cuteness overload!
His adorable look melted their heart.
After Annabelle Xia and Alistair Mu were done with lunch, Jack still didn't bring their precious little boy
back.
Alistair Mu started to get worried, "That stupid Jack! Could he kidnapped my son!?"
When Annabelle Xia heard that, she burst into a laughter, "President Mu, since when are you such a
worrier?!"
"That is no exaggeration. My son is so lovable, it is just logical to be more careful!" Alistair Mu said with
a straight face.
Annabelle Xia, "……"
"President Mu, don't let my son grow up like a narcissist like you!"
"No, it's OUR son!"
"Okay~" Annabelle Xia conceded. However, after giving it a second thought, she nodded agreeably,
"But I do have to agree with you!"
The husband and wife looked at each other and smiled.
At that time, the door was opened suddenly.
Jack carried Shi Guang and there was a huge load of things hanging on his body. Alistair Mu and
Annabelle Xia couldn't even see Jack's face.
"President Mu, Miss Xia, hurry and help!" Jack said strenuously.
Annabelle Xia and Alistair Mu hurried over. But Alistair Mu simply carried his son away, leaving Jack
hanging like a Christmas tree.
Annabelle Xia was shocked, "Jack, you don't have to spend so much!! So many toys and food, it's too
much for Shi Guang!"
Jack shook his head, "No, I simply carried him and walked around the company. And all of these
happened… I almost couldn't climb back up!"
Annabelle Xia, "……"
So that was it.
Annabelle Xia was just overawed with Yun Rui's workers' friendliness!
Alistair Mu simply said indifferently, "I don't mind if you couldn't come back, but you must make sure my
son comes back!"
Jack, "……"
President Mu, why are you so heartless!
Annabelle Xia chuckled, "Okay, you should hurry and get some rest!"
Jack took a long time to take away all of the gifts and left the office.
And now Alistair Mu's office was filled with Shi Guang's stuffs!
The minimalistic and classy office turned into a kids' toyshop!
Annabelle Xia looked at Shi Guang and said, "My darling, you went down for such a short time and you
plundered so much goods! Your mother is just embarrassed!"
"Our son is the charmer, there is no help against it!" Alistair Mu had turned into a proud father now…
Annabelle Xia simply shook her head helplessly.
All of a sudden, she recalled something and said, "Alistair, I have a question!"
"What is it?"
"A lot of people said Shi Guang looks like a girl. You think that's because of the name I gave him?"
Annabelle Xia asked.
Alistair Mu simply chuckled, "Then where should call him Mu Ten, much cooler!"
"But Shi Guang is cuter!"
"Let's call him Mu Ten and Shi Guang as his nickname!"
Annabelle Xia, "…Deal!"
The husband and wife continued to play with Shi Guang in the office. When it was about evening,
Alistair Mu brought Annabelle Xia to another place.
When Annabelle Xia reached there, she caught on Alistair Mu's intention.
There was just a huge crowd gathering in the place.
All of Yun Rui's shareholders, workers and even the good friends and family from the Mu House were
there.
Fortunately Alistair Mu prepared a change of clothes for Annabelle Xia and she didn't need to
embarrass herself.
When they walked inside, the grandmother, madam Mu and Mu Zhen were serving the guests.
The grandmother had a cheerful smile and she was bragging about how adorable her great grandson
was. She was just overjoyed.
The moment Annabelle Xia and Alistair Mu reached, they saw the three friends.
Jerry Kuang, Sean and Thomas Mo.
"Annabelle Xia, long time no see!!" Jerry Kuang was the first one that greeted Annabelle Xia.
"Long time no see!"
"Do you know how much Alistair had suffered during the times you aren't here?" Sean teased.
"Not just suffered, he almost lost it!" Thomas Mo added.
