"Sorry to worry you, I forgot to charge my phone." As soon as it was connected, Li Ning immediately apologized sincerely.

The other party was silent for a moment, and then Shen Muzhi sighed helplessly.

Fang couldn't get through Li Ning's phone just now, Shen Muzhi was really worried, suppressed a little anger and wanted to preach, but when he heard Li Ning's sincere attitude of admitting his mistakes, that anger dissipated in an instant.

"Staying at Grandma's until so late to come home?" Shen Muzhi's tone was a little slower, but he asked worriedly.

"Yes. It just so happened that Yao Yu was also there, and after she left, my grandmother left me alone to say a few words. ”

"What did she go to see her grandmother for?"

"For the sake of the first birthday banquet. She didn't dare to do it privately, so she asked her grandmother what she meant, but she didn't immediately agree, but asked me what I meant. Then, I said yes. ”

Li Ning was concise and to the point, explaining the whole story in one breath.

Shen Muzhi was silent for a moment and did not speak immediately.

"Do you think I shouldn't have said yes?" Li Ning asked tentatively.

"It's not. A child's first birthday party only. Shen Muzhi smiled disappreciably.

Li Ning paused and said, "At first, I didn't understand why my grandmother asked my opinion for the first birthday banquet. Later, my grandmother told me what was at stake, and I realized that Jinyi's first birthday banquet was equivalent to the Shen family's recognition of his identity, so this is not just a simple question of a child's birthday. ”

Of course, Shen Muzhi understood this, and from the moment Li Ning said that Yao Yu wanted to hold a birthday banquet, he thought of the stakes.

"Whether it's a birthday or an acknowledgment. If my grandmother had asked me, I would have said yes. ”

"Really?" Li Ning felt a little relieved when she heard this.

Just now, her tone in front of Old Madam Shen was very firm, but in her heart, she was still afraid that the two Shen Muzhi brothers would mind, after all, this was his Shen family's business in the final analysis, and she did this for them without authorization.

It's just that although Shen Muzhi and Li Ning will make the same decision, the starting point of the two of them is different.

Li Ning was out of pity for Jin Yi and out of emotional psychology, while Shen Muzhi looked at this matter completely rationally.

Shen Muzhi said: "If grandma wants to refuse Yao Yu's request, then she won't ask your opinion again." Naturally, her old man also knew the power of this matter, and if she really wanted to ask for advice, she would wait for me and Mu Zhi to go back and talk about it. ”

Li Ning blinked his eyes, and there was a feeling of opening up.

"So you're saying that in fact, grandma agreed to Yao Yu's first birthday party, but for various reasons, she asked me for a definite answer. She knows my character and will not refuse. And since I agreed to this matter, even if you and Mu Xing don't want to agree, there is no chance to regret it! ”

"Maybe that's what it means." Shen Muzhi said with a faint smile.

Having followed Mrs. Shen since he was a child, Shen Muzhi knew more about Mrs. Shen than Mrs. Shen knew about him.

Li Ning sighed depressedly at the moment, "Grandma Dare to love me only when she expected her to be able to eat me, so she came to ask my opinion." ”

Shen Muzhi smiled softly, "We and Mu Xing combined, we may not be able to count grandma and his old man, so you don't have to be annoyed." ”

"Then this thing ......"

"It doesn't matter, it's just a child. Besides, grandma likes children, and it is a matter of time before she is cautious, and it is not a loss for us to be a good person. ”

"That's all there is to it." Li Ning sighed helplessly.

As he spoke, Li Ning heard the voice of Assistant Li whispering beside Shen Muzhi.

"Do you have anything else to do at this late hour?" Li Ning asked with concern.

"I'm at the airport, I landed in the early morning, you rest first, and I'll talk about it tomorrow morning."

"Since it's late, why don't you take a break and leave tomorrow morning?"

As soon as Li Ning said this, he secretly scolded himself for being stupid.

Shen Muzhi has always reduced his business trips recently, and even if he is forced to fly to other places, he can come back an hour earlier.

For nothing else, just because I was worried that something would happen to her and the baby.

"You can rest on the plane, and you can get on the bus directly after getting off the plane. Don't worry. You go back and go to bed early. Shen Muzhi said warmly.

"Alright then, we'll see you at home."

When he returned home, Li Ning immediately instructed the housekeeper, "Uncle Zheng, let people make soup and warm it, and if the eldest young master comes back in the second half of the night, if he is hungry, he can drink a little, and prepare some more food, you can make him a supper." ”

"Okay, young grandma."

"Oh yes, remember to leave a lamp for Muzhi." Li Ning just took two steps, and immediately turned around to remind.

The housekeeper smiled, "Don't worry, I will arrange it properly." ”

"That's good, I'm sorry for you, Uncle Zheng."

Li Ning went back to the room to wash, lay on the bed and tossed and turned for a while, and then looked at the time, only ten minutes had passed.

"Is this watch broken?" Li Ningwu muttered to himself.

She wanted to wait until Shen Muzhi came back, but after tossing for a while, her upper and lower eyelids stuck together and she couldn't open them, and then she fell into a dream unconsciously.

Shen Muzhi returned home in the early morning, and the housekeeper Uncle Zheng greeted him, "Young Master, you are back." ”

Originally, Shen Muzhi deliberately made a soft sound, just because he didn't want to wake up the others, but he was surprised when he saw Uncle Zheng come out, "Uncle Zheng hasn't slept yet." ”

"The young grandmother said that you would come back in the early morning, so I was told to keep the light, and the young grandmother also told someone to make the soup and keep it warm, do you want to drink a bowl?"

"No, I'm not hungry. Uncle Zheng should also rest early. Shen Muzhi smiled and patted Uncle Zheng's arm, and then went straight upstairs to the bedroom.

Opened the door lightly, only to see that the floor lamp in the room was still on, he relaxed his steps and walked into the bedroom in the corridor, and saw that Li Ning was sleeping soundly with a pregnant woman's pillow on his side.

Li Ning, who was asleep, opened her mouth slightly and let out a shallow snoring sound, and she looked like a cute and soft kitten.

Shen Muzhi gently pulled the quilt upward for Li Ning, kissed her lightly on the cheek, and looked at her slightly frowning but quickly stretching, and couldn't help but smile silently.

Recently, everyone has joked that Shen Muzhi is a robot behind his back, and he never knows how to be tired.

But in fact, he does other people's work for a few days every day, just to be able to squeeze out more time to accompany Li Ning and accompany the baby in her belly to grow up day by day.

From the moment he learned that Li Ning was pregnant, he wanted to be a competent and responsible father, starting from the child in his mother's womb.
