Mr. Yuan’s Dilemma: Can’t Help Falling in Love with You

There was still a trace of blood on the corner of Mu Chenyan’s lips when she fainted. Yuan Xuan sighed at her pitiful appearance.

The man’s gaze was extremely ferocious when he raised his head. Guo Jingze was next to him, but he fell when Yuan Xuan punched him.

‘Damn, I can’t believe he beat me up when I hardly touched that woman.’

Guo Jingze’s teeth and cheeks bled after he was struck.

He had already despised Yuan Xuan before this. When Yuan Xuan rushed over and ruined his fun, he abandoned the mutual respect between aristocratic families and his well-mannered upbringing. He jumped up and wrestled with Yuan Xuan.

The two men were both tall and well built. They had undergone combat training as well. The area seemed extremely narrow as they fought with each other.

The staff member was so afraid that he hid in the corner. He was completely dumbfounded.

Both of them looked like influential people, but they acted exactly like commoners when they fought…

Shao Yibai suddenly stormed in. He saw that Yuan Xuan and Guo Jingze were locked in a fierce struggle. The two men’s faces were covered in wounds of varying degrees. The man who was part of the special forces cursed, “F*ck, who should I help?”

One of them was his cousin, while the other was his playmate whom he had shared everything with as they grew up…

Shao Yibai stared blankly before he noticed that Mu Chenyan was lying on the bed in a sorry state. He instantly understood the situation. He yelled, “Damn, he fought for this femme fatale in the past and he’s doing it all over again now!”

Yuan Xuan took a step back. He turned to Shao Yibai and yelled, “Take Mu Chenyan away!”

Shao Yibai did not know whether Mu Chenyan was hurt, but he decided to help her first and find out later.

Guo Jingze was not as strong as Yuan Xuan. His angry punches were also rather sloppy as he had ingested alcohol.

After some time, the two men tumbled onto the floor together. Yuan Xuan straddled Guo Jingze and raised his fist. He was about to punch him before Shao Yibai yelled from the sidelines, saying, “Don’t kill him. You should thank him for saving Little Chenyan.”

Yuan Xuan seethed with anger. He could barely suppress it. He quickly turned to Guo Jingze and cursed, “I’ll make you pay for this later!”

Guo Jingze might have been Mu Chenyan’s savior, but he was definitely Yuan Xuan’s enemy.

If Guo Jingze had not helped Mu Chenyan, Yuan Xuan would not have taken so many years to find her!

The woman was fast asleep, but the airy and faraway noises in her surroundings made her furrow her brow. Mu Chenyan twitched when a sharp pain pricked her right arm. She opened her eyes with much difficulty before they adjusted themselves to the light. Only then could she clearly see the face of an unfamiliar woman.

“Miss, please don’t move. I’ve put you on a drip because you’ve exhausted yourself. Your blood sugar level and blood pressure are very low…”

The young nurse held Mu Chenyan’s arm. Once the tourniquet was removed, the nurse inserted the needle into her arm.

Mu Chenyan moved her lips. She tried to talk, but she realized that her voice was completely gone. Her breathing became more strained when she panicked from being unable to speak.

“Little Chenyan, are you thirsty?” The man’s voice was deep and husky. It had a comforting effect.

Mu Chenyan blinked. When she realized that it was Yuan Xuan, she became so anxious that she cried. “Yuan Xuan… My son…”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already sent someone to get him!”

Yuan Xuan held Mu Chenyan with his large hands and gently caressed her. His hands were warm but dry. The man’s gentle kisses could not conceal his smile. “Thank you, Little Chenyan!”

Mu Chenyan was momentarily unable to understand what Yuan Xuan meant. Yuan Xuan sighed when he saw the dumbfounded look on her face. The handsome man seemed like he had significantly aged overnight. However, the silly smile on his face made him resemble a husky.

“When I saw you at the Guo Family’s banquet, I immediately remembered the marriage in the Guo Family that was due to an unplanned pregnancy. I made a phone call and sent Kang Yu, Yan Jun, and Tian Qi to investigate the situation in City A while you were in the bathroom.

“I never expected that Guo Jingze’s men would already be there moments after they reached your house in City A. They wanted to take your son away, but Tian Qi had no problem fending off five people on his own!”

Yuan Xuan merely touched on this issue lightly, but Mu Chenyan could already imagine the terrifying scene.

“Your son is still in City A now. We’ve already lodged a police report there. Nobody can harm him now. He’s just waiting for you to return!”

Upon hearing this, Mu Chenyan was so touched that she cried. Her entire body trembled uncontrollably.

Yuan Xuan gave her some tissue paper to wipe her tears before he gently caressed her face. His tone was affectionately reproachful. He said, “Little Chenyan, you’ve been a naughty girl. I can’t believe that you lied to me for so many years! But I must thank you for keeping this child…”

Mu Chenyan wept but failed to speak as she held onto Yuan Xuan tightly.

“Yan Muyu is my son, right?”

Yuan Xuan’s palms became warmer. His eyes glimmered as he kissed Mu Chenyan’s little hands. The loneliness that he previously felt had seemingly disappeared. It was replaced by a happy smile instead.

Mu Chenyan faintly nodded to acknowledge that she agreed with him. Yuan Xuan became more emotional. He placed Mu Chenyan’s little hands against his lips and gently kissed them repeatedly. “Little Chenyan, I’m sorry.”

Mu Chenyan was stunned again. She saw that this powerful, unreasonable, and gloomy man was currently misty-eyed. Strangely enough, he also seemed to be choked with sobs. She frantically stroked his forehead with her hands.

The man did not bother to hide his sentimental side. He held Mu Chenyan’s hands in his own palms again. He murmured, “They said that women suffer the most when they were pregnant, but I wasn’t there to accompany you. I couldn’t even do anything for you when you were depressed!

“Giving birth to that child was the most dangerous moment of your life, but I couldn’t keep watch over you at the doorway or your hospital ward. I never boiled any nutritious soup for you during your confinement period. I never carried the baby when he wailed day and night. I wasn’t there to hear him say ‘daddy’ for the first time…”

His words touched Mu Chenyan. Tears silently rolled down the corners of her eyes as she choked back sobs. She murmured, “It was… My fault that… You couldn’t watch him grow up…”

Yuan Xuan cut Mu Chenyan off, but his gentle and watery eyes were filled with affection. “It wasn’t your fault. I blame myself for hiding everything from you in the past. If I wasn’t so selfish, you would neither have suffered such a huge blow, nor would you be burdened with such a heavy weight all of a sudden…”

After a long pause, the man suddenly realized something. He said, “Little Chenyan, I know that there’s half a year left before your graduation, so I won’t return to Luo Hai during this time. I’ll stay here and accompany you instead. You can go to class in the morning and come home to warm your husband’s bed at night.

“Obviously, I’ll repay you for that. I’ll cook for you at home and play with our son every day. You can see your husband and child when you come home after class. I wasn’t there during his first three years, but I’ll work hard and make it up to him during this time!”

Mu Chenyan became excited when she heard Yuan Xuan’s plans. She was not an emotionless object.

Mu Chenyan and Yuan Xuan had argued and alternated between loving and hating each other for many years. When she thought of this, she unconsciously began to anticipate their future.

A thought suddenly flashed in Mu Chenyan’s mind. She tugged at Yuan Xuan sleeve and quietly asked, “Could you… Promise me that you won’t trouble Guo Jingze…”
