You Are All My Wings

Xu Mu was caught by the arms by two girls, staggering as he walked.

It seemed like they were deliberately competing—one trying to pull Xu Mu to the left, the other to the right.

As his body swayed, his arms brushed against something on both of them.

Judging by their heights, Ye Yu was slightly shorter than Lu Xueyao.

But from a thunderstorm metaphor perspective, it was actually the opposite.

Ye Yu was like a loud thunderclap, while Lu Xueyao was more like light raindrops.

The three of them staggered over to the car. Ye Yu was the first to let go of Xu Mu and reached out to open the front passenger door.

Lu Xueyao immediately reacted, grabbing Ye Yu’s arm from behind.

Clearly, she wasn’t willing to give up the front passenger seat. If it had been Ye Tong, she wouldn’t have cared.

After all, Ye Tong was Xu Mu’s first wife, but Lu Xueyao considered herself the second wife, so her status should be higher than Ye Yu’s, right?

“Brother-in-law, look at her!” Ye Yu immediately appealed to Xu Mu, but her tone was more like a playful pout.

Xu Mu rolled his eyes, stepped forward, and pressed down on both their heads. “Both of you sit in the back.”

He pushed them to the rear seats and closed the door.

Xu Mu hesitated for a moment, planning to follow Feng Yue’s example and drive to a nearby underground parking lot.

He felt he should clarify things, especially with Ye Yu.

He needed someone like Lu Xueyao and definitely wouldn’t chase her away just because Ye Yu wanted him to.

Arriving at the underground garage, Xu Mu parked in a secluded corner.

His Cadillac Escalade was a seven-seater; just now, the two had been sitting in the second row.

Before getting out, Xu Mu turned back and said to them, “Sit in the third row.”

After saying that, he got out and headed toward the back seats.

He noticed the two had left a space between them with perfect coordination, so Xu Mu sat in the middle.

He pressed the car key to lock the doors, and with the interior lights off and privacy glass, the inside of the car plunged into complete darkness.

The cramped, dark environment always stirred other kinds of thoughts.

At this moment, not only Lu Xueyao but also Ye Yu began breathing rapidly, their cheeks flushed.

“All right, Xiao Yu, since you brought Xueyao along, you probably have something to say, right?” Xu Mu sat in the middle, arms crossed, glancing at Ye Yu.

“That’s right! Lu Xueyao, please stay away from my brother-in-law. Your behavior is totally inappropriate, got it?” Ye Yu said angrily, glaring at Lu Xueyao.

“I understand, but I’m not leaving. Brother Xu gave me a second chance at life. I’m going to follow him for the rest of my life,” Lu Xueyao said, having already guessed Ye Yu’s intentions on the way.

“Brother-in-law!” Ye Yu clung to Xu Mu’s arm, shaking him.

“Ahem! Xueyao, Xiao Yu is right. I’m already married...” Xu Mu started.

“I don’t care!” Lu Xueyao cut him off immediately.

“You’re still young.”

“I’m an adult!” Lu Xueyao grabbed Xu Mu’s hand tightly. She lowered her head, tears dripping onto the back of his hand. “Brother Xu, please don’t send me away. I don’t want a title, and I definitely won’t ruin your family. I just want to see you from time to time, and that’s enough to make me happy.”

Xu Mu was stunned, at a loss for words.

However, thinking about Lu Xueyao’s life, her father passed away when she was a child, and her mother remarried, starting a new family.

The person she was closest to—her mother—became a stranger, which must have caused a huge psychological blow.

After that, she was raised by her grandmother and was bullied at school from childhood until now.

Finally, when she tried to fight back, she was deceived by a punk kid and almost lost her purity.

A woman like her is clearly someone who suffers from a severe lack of security.

And Xu Mu’s appearance was the ray of light in her dark life.

Ye Yu frowned, feeling that this woman was so pitifully humble—at least she herself couldn’t do something like that.

“Xueyao, I’m not going to kick you out.”

Xu Mu gently stroked Lu Xueyao’s head.

[Affection +30]

The anxiety weighing on Lu Xueyao’s heart finally eased as she rested her delicate face on Xu Mu’s shoulder.

Xu Mu then looked over at Ye Yu beside them. “Xueyao is still young. Maybe someday she’ll meet a better man.”

“No way, Brother Xu Mu. It’s only you for her this lifetime,” Lu Xueyao whispered softly.

Xu Mu rolled his eyes, thinking, *Isn’t that just an excuse she’s giving you?*

He could only pull Ye Yu closer by the shoulder and say, “Don’t worry, I’ll explain everything clearly to your sister.”

“I know my sister’s personality best. She definitely won’t mind, but I’m different! I’m the one who guards my brother-in-law’s health!”

Ye Yu wrapped her arm around Xu Mu’s, shooting a cold glare at Lu Xueyao. “I’m fine with you two keeping in touch, but don’t you dare overstep your bounds.”

Lu Xueyao felt uncomfortable. “Brother Xu Mu and my sister don’t mind. What’s it got to do with you? You’re not even Brother Xu Mu’s wife.”

“Ha! Your true colors are showing, huh? You’re just taking advantage of my sister-in-law’s kindness, trying to trick him away, right?”

Ye Yu sneered coldly. “No way! I won’t allow you to cling to him from now on!”

“That’s none of your business.”

Lu Xueyao said, then pecked Xu Mu on the cheek.

“You—”

Ye Yu, trembling, pointed at Lu Xueyao, then immediately spat on her own hand and wiped Xu Mu’s face. “Now he’s dirty. My brother-in-law is dirty.”

“Ugh! That’s disgusting!” Xu Mu grabbed Ye Yu’s hand.

“You despise me? Oh yeah, mine’s stinky, and hers smells nice!”

Ye Yu’s cheeks puffed up more and more.

“No, I don’t.”

Xu Mu was helpless, feeling like he was dealing with a child.

“Then I’ll join in too!”

Ye Yu suddenly pecked Xu Mu on the other cheek.

Xu Mu froze on the spot. You have to know, Ye Yu had been full of hatred toward him before.

This sudden change was a bit hard to get used to.

Ye Yu herself hadn’t expected to do something like this in a moment of panic.

She lowered her head and spoke haltingly, “You have to think carefully. My sister and I are two different people. She only has one you.”

“I know. You’re both my wings.”

Xu Mu hadn’t expected to say such a cheesy line.

But his words had double meanings.

To Ye Yu, he was referring to her and Ye Tong.

But to Lu Xueyao, he meant her and Ye Yu.

[Affection +10]

[Affection +20]

Xu Mu decided he still needed to have a talk with Ye Tong. In his eyes, Ye Tong was his wife.

And he really couldn’t bear to deceive Ye Tong, given her personality.

…

After settling the matters with Ye Yu and Lu Xueyao, Xu Mu sent each of them back to their respective places.

By the time he dropped Ye Yu off at the villa, it was already noon.

Xu Mu didn’t head straight back to the company. Since it was lunchtime, he decided to casually make some noodles for Ye Yu.

“Ye Yu, it’s noon. I’m going to make some noodles for you.”

Xu Mu walked into the kitchen, relying entirely on muscle memory to prepare two bowls of noodles.

The two of them sat across from each other at the dining table. Ye Yu’s cheeks were flushed the entire time; she didn’t even know why she felt that way.

Why had she done that to Xu Mu just now? It was so embarrassing.

“Is it good?” Xu Mu broke the silence.

“It’s delicious.”

Ye Yu nodded, then quickly changed the subject. “Brother-in-law, it’s rare to have a day off. I want to go out and hang out with my sister.”

Hearing this, Xu Mu nodded. “Sure, where do you want to go? I’ll accompany you both.”

“Once my sister gets home tonight, I’ll discuss it with her,” Ye Yu said with a smile.

...

After finishing his meal, Xu Mu drove to the company.

Just as he arrived at the company gate, he sensed Meng Wanyue approaching from that direction.

Xu Mu’s expression immediately grew serious. What was going on with Meng Wanyue?

Where was she headed?

Although Xu Mu trusted Meng Wanyue now, he still decided to follow her.
