Yuan Tian was munching on the snacks that she bought from the lantern show and she choked on it after hearing what her brother said. After a long time, she then only realized that her brother was mocking her about how no one would marry her.
“Hmmp! What kind of brother are you? It’s none of your business even if I spend a few more years eating the Yuan Family’s rice!”
Mu Chenyan could no longer hold back her laughter after seeing the dejected look on Yuan Tian’s face. Then, Yuan Tian suddenly changed her target and aimed at Mu Chenyan, “Brother Xuan actually made a joke? It seems like your influence is quite strong!”
Yuan Xuan looked at Mu Chenyan from the back mirror and saw the indifferent look on her face. It seemed like she did not agree with the fact that Yuan Tian linked her together with Yuan Xuan.
Yuan Xuan frowned slightly. It looked like this woman would not be forgiving him anytime soon!
Getting to know each other was easy but staying together was tough. Recalling how Shao Yibai lost the opportunity to be with that woman after not seeing each other for a few years, he was moved deeply. He could no longer wait for his woman to take the initiative to break the silence!
When they returned to the mansion, Yuan Tian saw Yuan Ran standing by the car in front of the gates. It appeared that she was having a conversation with Shao Yibai. Yuan Ran seemed a little anxious, but she dared not ruin her ladylike image. The change in Shao Yibai’s att.i.tude was too obvious. Even a fool could tell that it was related to the woman at the lantern show.
Yuan Xuan looked at Shao Yibai, smiled lightly and drove past them without stopping.
…
They arrived in Hibiscus Garden and right when Mu Chenyan wanted to go to the second floor to take a shower, Yuan Xuan quickly caught up with the woman who constantly gave him a cold face. He said in a low voice, “Mrs. Yuan, I think we should talk!”
Mu Chenyan rolled her eyes and complained angrily, “What is there to talk about?”
Third Young Master Yuan smiled briefly, “This is not the place for talking!”
Then, he dominantly carried the woman who avoided him deliberately by the waist and m.u.f.fled, “Shao Yibai is right, if a woman is disobedient, it must be due to the lack of ravaging! Thus, I think we should have a talk in bed!”
Mu Chenyan, “…”
…
It was on the third day after the lantern show that Mu Chenyan received Wu Ze’s phone call.
“Chenyan, I have good news…” Before Wu Ze’s could complete the sentence with his beautiful voice, Mu Chenyan could already sense the happiness in his voice.
“I can go to work already?” Mu Chenyan’s heart was filled with joy!
Ever since the day after the lantern show, she had ‘bedroom talks’ with Yuan Xuan for three days already. She hated this place and wanted to leave to ease her mind.
“Yes, you can go to work, but…” Wu Ze paused as though he had some hesitation.
“But what?” Mu Chenyan asked eagerly, worried that there would be some changes.
“There is an issue on my brother’s side. If he loses his temper when you get there, please bear with it. I apologize in advance on his behalf!”
Mu Chenyan laughed after hearing Wu Ze’s honest words, “Big Brother Wu, you’re over-thinking. I’m not that fragile and I’m the one who volunteered this time. I won’t make a sound even if Brother Wu Huai make things difficult for me. Don’t worry!”
Wu Ze laughed out loud and said, “It’s not that I don’t trust you, I’m just worried…”
Mu Chenyan, “…”
Wu Ze knew that he had said too much, so he quickly changed the topic and asked, “You and Yuan Xuan did not argue recently, right?”
Mu Chenyan hesitated for a moment and remained silent. Wu Ze sighed and continued, “Yuan Xuan actually cares about you very much in his heart!”
Mu Chenyan said in a low and soft voice, “Big Brother Wu, you don’t have to say good words for him. You did very well as a friend already! The issue between Yuan Xuan and I can’t be resolved with just a few words. Moreover, I also understood some details from the case in the past. Either way, I need to thank you!”
Wu Ze was stunned. If they were not on the phone, he would probably be too ashamed to even show his face!
He knew the secret behind the case but he stood by Yuan Xuan’s side and deceived this poor woman…
