The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife

Xi Xiaye then looked at him.

He lowered his gaze and chuckled as he took his blazer from the side to cover Mu Xiaocheng.

“Missus Mu, let’s probe into some life philosophy.” His deep and sensual voice came through.

Upon hearing that, Xi Xiaye immediately rolled her eyes at him. “What life philosophy could I be looking at? Your wife, Mu Xiaocheng’s mother, and the daughter of my parents, Father and Mother’s daughter-in-law, all of these are my life philosophies.”

“You do think of it too simply,” he said good-naturedly and fell silent for a moment before continuing, “Do you remember how you were like when we’d just met?”

“I don’t remember how things were in the past anymore, and I don’t want to think about those things. I just want to be the way you want me to: a simple person. Right now, my convictions are my relatives, my marriage, and my family. Sigh, Mr. Mu, do you realize that after we got married, our state of mind has changed so much? Had it been in the past, we were so carefree and fine no matter how hard things got. Now after being married, I feel like it’s always on my mind. The first thing I want to do after work is to go home unlike the past when I’d join a gathering to work overtime.”

“It’s where your duty lies, Missus,” he answered simply.

“Duties?” She thought about it then agreed as well, “Oh, right, you were talking about what Su Chen said. Tell me! I was talking to Ji Zitong a few days ago. I think that their relationship is going pretty well.”

“He and Ji Zitong was a pair of enemies, but thankfully things worked out. A while ago, Su Chen asked me and Zimo what we thought was a man’s most important achievement, but I couldn’t immediately answer him then,” Mu Yuchen lowered his eyes and said calmly.

“Money and beautiful women? Power and status?” She squinted at him and probed.

He immediately rolled his eyes at her. “Have you fallen into a pit of clichès?”

“If not, what then?” Xi Xiaye shrugged as she asked.

“How honorable that you’re like that foolish Zhou Zimo who’d think people were complimenting him by calling him Bro Da Li [1]!” Mu Yuchen said unhappily.

“May I then ask the elegant and unconventional Mr. Mu what your thoughts are?”

“It’s just like right now. I’m with a wife who likes cheap humor while she’s dressed up all beautifully and driving a nice car while I sit aside and watch her.”

“Likes cheap humor? Mu Yuchen, are you calling me corny?”

“What do you think?”

“You can sleep in the study room tonight. Don’t get into a corny woman’s bed!”

“Pretend I didn’t say that…”

…

The situation did not calm down with time. Instead, it became worse!

Doris was grounded by Gu Qiwu.

After Gu Lingsha stayed at home for a whole, she received this news! When she heard about it, she had no idea what was going on, so she called Doris but her mother did not pick up. Meanwhile, Gu Qiwu was nowhere in sight either.

It was then that Gu Lingsha could vaguely feel that something was off with Gu Qiwu and Doris. She struggled for a while, and in the end, she could not help but rush back to the Gu family mansion. She needed to talk to Gu Qiwu!

“Miss Lingsha, the boss is in the study room, but he says he doesn’t want to see anyone. How about you go home first?! When the boss is calmer, I’ll talk to him.”

In the living room, Ah Yong stood there while looking troubled in front of the anxious Gu Lingsha.

Gu Lingsha’s heart was already all clenched up with anxiety. When she heard Ah Yong say that, she felt even more nervous. She quickly looked up and asked, “What’s wrong with Father? I’ve called many times, but he didn’t pick up. Why is he grounding Mother? She’s already in such a state! If he’s angry, he can come for me!”

Upon hearing that, Ah Yong looked helpless. “Miss Lingsha, you can’t blame the boss for this. He’s been drinking himself drunk. He just woke up, so he’s in a poor state. In fact, shouldn’t you be asking Madam about this?”

“Drinking himself drunk?” Gu Lingsha’s eyes widened!

What did he mean by that?

From what she remembered, her father, Gu Qiwu, had always maintained his elegant image. She had never seen him drink excessively. Could Doris’s miscarriage be the cause of her parents’ falling apart?

Gu Lingsha thought about it and suddenly felt bad!

Was she not their daughter?

Also, she had already said that she did not do it intentionally, but her mother still would not forgive her whereas Gu Qiwu…

When she thought about it, Gu Lingsha could not help but feel sad. She gave it more thought and could not hold herself back as she ran upstairs.

“Miss Lingsha, you…”

“Go down! I want to see my father!” Gu Lingsha demanded and picked her skirts up to run upstairs!

Bam!

The study room door was not locked, so Gu Lingsha pushed it hard and the door opened!

A strong light entered her eyes, then the strong smell of alcohol assailed her. Gu Lingsha felt nauseous by this smell!

She calmed herself down for a while, and finally, after letting the nausea settle, she breathed in and looked up and around to find signs of Gu Qiwu. At that instant, she saw Gu Qiwu sitting in the chair before his work desk, his back facing her!

“Father!”

Gu Lingsha walked up anxiously and reached Gu Qiwu’s side.

He appeared wan and sallow at the moment while he propped his head up with one hand with his eyes shut, sitting there frozen.

When Gu Lingsha saw him like this, she could not help but speak angrily, “Father, what’s wrong with you?! Why are you grounding Mother? She’s still so weak. Shouldn’t you be taking good care of her?”

“Why are you here? Get out. I don’t want to see anyone.” Gu Qiwu’s raspy voice was filled with fatigue as he said coldly. When he spoke, he did not even open his eyes.

Gu Lingsha’s slightly pale face looked miserable as she breathed in deeply. “Father, if you and Mother are like this because of Mu Zi, then you shouldn’t be angry with Mother. Don’t you understand what state she is in right now? You’re the one in the wrong. I don’t care if it’s a baseless claim. Whatever it is, everyone’s talking about it right now, so we need to face it, resolve it, and not be hiding here like this!”

Gu Lingsha’s eyes contained some reprimand. She paused before continuing, “Besides, shouldn’t you be giving me and Mother an explanation about Mu Zi and Mu Lingshi?”
