Big one…
What an appropriate phrase to use.
Li Beinian cleared her throat and shouted, “Godma, we’re not dating.”
“We’re married,” Mu Xichen spoke calmly and concisely.
Tang Xiaoge’s expression froze. Chi Dali was surprised as well and asked, “Beinian, is that true?”
Li Beinian raised her hand to show the ring on her ring finger and said with a little embarrassment, “We were registered… yesterday.”
Tang Xiaoge burst out, “No way. It’s such an important matter, and you didn’t discuss it with us?”
Chi Dali spoke with a disapproving expression, “You’ve gotten married? Didn’t you just break up with what’s-his-name, and now you’ve found the next player?”
“Ptui! Ptui! Ptui!” Tang Xiaoge hit him. “What do you mean, found the next player. Chief Mu had his sight set on our precious daughter long ago. Why else would he spend so much time with you every time he visits? Are you blind?”
Tang Xiaoge was a big woman, about 1.80m, and close to 100kg. Being hit by her, the man grimaced in pain and retorted, “How would I know? He has never told me explicitly. How would I know if he went such a roundabout way!”
Li Beinian was speechless.
Her hazel eyes fell on Mu Xichen instinctively. She gave him an odd look and asked, “Do you come by often?”
After asking this, she reflected on Tang Xiaoge’s words and raised another question, “Hang on, what do you mean by Boss?”
“You didn’t know?” Tang Xiaoge replied as she walked towards the kitchen with the fruits. “Your father accepted a batch of orders from Chief Mu. He’s been working on it lately.”
Chi Dali was a craftsman and was capable of producing all sorts of exquisite craftworks.

For instance, precious metals and stone, jade carvings or cutlery, and such small items. He knew how to make them.
Only, Mu Xichen had his own channels for these things. Why would he have needed to appoint Chi Dali for the job?
Although Chi Dali and Tang Xiaoge were highly skilled, there were only two of them, unlike the huge workshops.
The only advantage they provided was a high level of privacy.
Li Beinian was stunned for a moment. She suddenly recalled Mu Xichen’s ending in her previous life and immediately asked, “What’s this job? It’s not illegal, is it?”
“It’s a batch of small knives, no big deal. They’re mainly for self-defense.” Chi Dali didn’t seem bothered and continued, “Come, come, come, let’s go in. Take a seat.”
Mu Xichen was ushered in. Just as he sat down, he heard a deep voice from behind him calling, “Godpa.”
A familiar voice, calling out an unfamiliar form of address.
Chi Dali froze and looked at the man with disbelief.
As though he hadn’t noticed Chi Dali’s reaction, Mu Xichen held up the gifts that he had prepared earlier on. He said to Chi Dali, “Thank you for having taken care of my wife all these years. From this point forward, I’ll be taking her with me.”
His voice was expressionless but not rude, and sincerity was infused in every word he spoke.
Chi Dali seemed to be finally getting over the surprise. He felt a complexity of emotions, however, and could only say, “Great, that good, really good. I’m relieved that she has married you.”
Only, he didn’t seem overjoyed but looked towards Li Beinian with an unfathomable expression.
Li Beinian stood there prettily in her simple light-colored skirt. It made her look tall, leggy, and slim. Her features were like an exquisite carving.
“You’re grown-up,” Chi Dali said with a hint of emotion in his voice. “I remember when we first brought you home, you were only this tiny.”
He gestured with an expression of nostalgia and happiness. “It’s all good, whichever Mu you choose. As long as the man will take good care of you, it’s all good.”
An obscure light flashed in Mu Xichen’s deep and dark eyes as he looked at Chi Dali.
