Blessed marriage: New wife is not allowed to escape

Chapter 226 Killing with my own hands, the guilty black box
"Qi Rui, quickly swallow this bowl of glutinous rice balls..."

On the 15th Lantern Festival, the Qi family is very festive. This year is quite special. Everyone in the Qi family is looking forward to the birth of the baby. Mr. Qi is in a good mood and cooks dumplings himself.

Everyone sat around the living room of the rich and luxurious Qi family's main house. Even in the daytime, the twinkling crystal lamp in the center had already been turned on, and the red silk and satin lanterns over the garden were filled with joyful light, but Mu Siyue felt that the man beside him was a little absent-minded.

"This is the glutinous rice balls made by grandpa himself, you should swallow them quickly." Mu Siyue leaned close to his ear and reminded, "It's 15th Lantern Festival today, don't be so stern..."

Qi Rui raised a smile towards Mu Siyue with complicated eyes, pursed the corners of his lips, and his eyes were full of irritability.

He picked up the bowl and ate the glutinous rice balls one by one, but his mind was still a little far away.

"What's wrong with Qi Rui? You're pregnant during this time, and he's dissatisfied with his desires?" Feng Ge also came over to enjoy the fun today, and touched Mu Siyue with his elbow, teasing him.

Mu Siyue blushed slightly, "Hey, don't talk nonsense."

Turning his head to look at Qi Rui, he was indeed very strange.

"Qi Rui, is it Shen Wan'er's illness..." Mu Siyue thought for a while, then whispered, but she didn't finish her sentence.

Boom!
The porcelain bowl in Qi Rui's hand fell to the ground, shards flying everywhere.

Everyone's eyes were looking this way, and Mu Siyue had already seen Mr. Qi's dissatisfied eyes, and immediately smiled awkwardly, "It was me, I accidentally touched him."

"Clean up quickly, it's unlucky to break the bowl during the festival." Hearing what Mu Siyue said, Old Master Qi softened his tone, and urged the servant beside him.

Qi Rui's face became more and more gloomy, and he looked at the woman beside him with complicated eyes, his thin lips moved slightly, hesitant to speak.

"Grandpa, you have been saying all day that you are very good at guessing lantern fans. Do you want us to go to the square tonight..." Mu Siyue still had a smile on her face, she turned to look at old man Qi, and did not look at Qi Rui's complicated look.

"When you give birth to my little golden grandson, you can go anywhere, and now you don't want to go out." Old Man Qi said leisurely while sipping tea, his tone full of joy.

"By the way, Siyue, you'll just stay at home during this period of time. It's not good if there are too many people bumping into you outside. Let's have someone deliver what you want..." Mo Xiangwan's face was also filled with With joy, it is rare to persuade gently.

The housekeeper smiled slightly and looked at Mu Siyue, "The old man sent someone to prepare a firework display on the mountain behind Qi's house. It will start at [-] o'clock tonight, and he even asked for a dragon dance to cheer it up. You can see it clearly from the top floor of our Qi's house."

Feng Ge always likes to be lively, laughing heartily, "Tonight's fireworks display must be more exciting than the fireworks in the city center. If I knew it, I would bring my three pigs over to see it together."

"You raise pigs?" Mr. Qi has been very friendly to pigs these days, expecting his little golden grandson to be a healthy little chubby pig.

"I have raised three pet pigs, they are not picky eaters, they look naive..."

Feng Ge excitedly chatted with Mr. Qi about his experience in raising pigs, "When the baby is born, I'll bring my three little pigs over to play with him..."

Mo Xiangwan was a little worried, "What if the little pet scares the child..."

"How can my precious great-grandson be so timid." Mr. Qi looked proud.

Everyone was chatting about the baby with great interest, and Mu Siyue was also very excited, stroking her bulging belly with her right hand, and she would be able to see this little guy in a while.

However, when Mu Siyue turned her eyes, she found that Qi Rui's face was a little gloomy, "Qi Rui, what's wrong with you?" She leaned closer and looked at him with burning eyes.

"nothing……"

Qi Rui seemed unwilling to meet her clear eyes, turned his head quickly, as if thirsty, grabbed the white jade teacup and drank two cups in a row.

But Mu Siyue still stared at him, "Qi Rui, is it because yesterday Shen Wan'er..." She whispered, the voice was so soft that only the two of them could hear.

Just now she just guessed and said something about Shen Wan'er, but he dropped the bowl in his hand. She just didn't want to ask more questions in order to lie, she saw that he hesitated to speak.

"Although today is Lantern Festival, if she is seriously ill and you are worried about her, then you can visit her..."

Qi Rui paused while holding the teacup, and asked in a low voice, "Mu Siyue, aren't you jealous?" What he said was unclear.

Mu Siyue frowned and stared at his tiny expression, she felt that he was sneering at himself, he was really weird today.

"Well, I'm not being generous, I just believe in you." She responded lightly.

she trusts me...

Mu Siyue's words caused a strong emotion to surge in his eyes, and his chest was extremely dull.

Qi Rui put down his teacup, turned his head to look into her clear eyes, and said in a heavy voice, "Mu Siyue, if something happens to this child..."

"The child is healthy, he will have no problems, and I will also pay attention to safety, and I will protect him." When Mu Siyue heard him mentioning the child, her voice was a little excited, and she quickly interrupted him.

"Rui, you are absent-minded all day because you are worried about your child's health?" Mo Xiangwan immediately turned to look at them when he heard Mu Siyue's words.

As he said that, Mo Xiangwan had a smile on his face and joked in a great mood, "Rui, when I was pregnant with you, your father was worried and anxious all day long. I didn't expect that your child is like your father back then. "

"It's his own flesh and blood. It's his responsibility to care and protect the child. Learn more in the future and set a good example. Don't let the child follow your bad temper." Old Master Qi choked at Qi Rui.

It was rare for Qi Rui not to refute, and listened quietly to their discussion about the child, they were all very much looking forward to the birth of the child.

"I'll go back to the study first."

In the end, Qi Rui seemed unable to suppress the impatience in his heart, so he got up and walked towards the study on the second floor.

Mr. Qi and the others didn't ask too much. After all, the entire DM&G Group needs Qi Rui's responsibility, and he is indeed very busy.

Mu Siyue looked at his handsome and outstanding back as always, but her eyes were a little thoughtful.

In the afternoon, Mo Xiangwan said that he wanted to learn baking, so Mu Siyue used her expertise and went to the kitchen to teach Feng Ge and Mo Xiangwan to bake some simple biscuits.

"Siyue, try it quickly. This is the first time I've baked biscuits, but don't eat too much, this is very annoying." Mo Xiangwan held the nut biscuits with a smile on his face.

"Actually, Qi Rui's mother isn't too difficult to get along with." Feng Ge lowered his voice and whispered to Mu Siyue, Mo Xiangwan, a woman who speaks directly, is a bit of an arrogant princess.

Mu Siyue smiled casually, "As long as there is no conflict of interest with her, she is quite kind. She was prejudiced against me before, but it's fine now."

"Mo Xiangwan watched Shen Wan'er grow up, and the two women were recuperating in the United States together. Of course, Mo Xiangwan wanted Shen Wan'er to be her daughter-in-law, and hoped that after you gave birth to her grandson, she would stop comparing you with Shen Wan'er Just fine."

"By the way, Feng Ge, do you know how Shen Wan'er is doing now?" Mu Siyue asked in a low voice with some concern.

"I haven't heard any news, and no one in the circle has talked about it. Look, Mo Xiangwan doesn't seem to know that Shen Wan'er was admitted to the hospital. Maybe the Shen family doesn't want to make it public, or maybe Shen Wan'er has returned home without any serious problems."

"Shen Wan'er had a painful expression yesterday, has she really been discharged from the hospital?" Mu Siyue was a little skeptical.

"Why do you care so much about the Shen family's affairs, Siyue, are you worried that your husband will lose touch with her?" Feng Ge looked at her gossipingly.

"No." Mu Siyue said in a deep voice, "I just think that after Qi Rui came back, he has been very strange. He looks very irritable and seems to be in a bad mood."

"Your husband Qi Rui has always been this thousand-year-old ice coffin face, when will he be in a better mood?" Feng Ge teased coolly.

Mu Siyue glanced at her angrily, and looked up at the clock that it was almost six o'clock in the afternoon.

"I said it, I know!" A deep and irritated voice came from the study.

Mu Siyue was standing outside the study door, she was about to knock on the door and ask Qi Rui to go downstairs for dinner, "Who is he talking on the phone with?" She was full of doubts.

After a while, the usual quietness returned to the study, and Mu Siyue knocked on the door lightly, "Qi Rui, go downstairs for dinner."

She pushed open the door and walked in. Qi Rui still lowered his head, looking as if he was busy approving documents as usual, but Mu Siyue noticed carefully that he signed the document in the wrong place.

"Qi Rui, are you feeling unwell?" She walked to his side and looked at his stern face, "Don't refuse to take medicine all day long, we will worry about you."

"I'm fine." He looked up, but his eyes fell on a black box in the distance, just a quick glance.

Mu Siyue's eyes were slightly dazed, she clearly noticed the strangeness in him.

"Let's go." Qi Rui seemed unwilling to say more, put down the pen, got up, and went downstairs for dinner with her in his arms.

However, when she passed the large bookshelf on the left side of the study room, Mu Siyue stopped in her tracks. She fixed her eyes on a very conspicuous black box on the bookshelf. The box was only the size of an ordinary 16-carat book, but the box didn't have any logo on it. bright.

"What is this?" She pointed to the black box and asked curiously, "I don't remember this box before, what's in it?"

Qi Rui's study, Mu Siyue, came here very often, and Qi Rui also let her browse through his documents and books, but this time, Mu Siyue just took a step forward, and before his right hand touched the black box, he heard Qi Rui's words. He scolded in a cold voice.

"Don't touch!"

Mu Siyue's hands froze in mid-air, she turned her head and looked at him puzzled, "What's wrong? What's inside is very important?"

"Go on, grandpa and the others are waiting for us." Qi Rui didn't answer her, but spoke a little fast, and dragged her out of the study with big strides.

Mu Siyue looked puzzled, looked back at the black box, then turned to look at Qi Rui's profile, wondering if it was her illusion, she seemed to see a flash of nervousness in his eyes.

"Qi Rui, do you have something to hide from me?"

The two went downstairs together, and when they reached the main hall, Mu Siyue suddenly asked him a serious question.

Qi Rui paused, raised his eyes to stare at her, seemed to be hesitating and struggling in silence, "Mu Siyue, actually..."

"Qi Rui!"

However, at this moment, a hurried figure walked towards the gate of the Qi family's main house, "Qi Rui, I can't delay any longer, I beg you..."

"Mrs. Shen?" Mu Siyue took a step forward and looked towards the door, shocked.
