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

Zhuang Shurong thought about it for a moment, then nodded ruefully. “Yes, but I think our son’s more excellent than you!”

“As excellent as he may be, I’m still his old man!” Mu Tangchuan shot her an unhappy glance, then looked down at Mu Xiaocheng who flopped about in his arms. “Time passes so quickly. In the blink of an eye, we’ve all grown old. I understand how you feel. Just do as you see fits then. They plan on promoting you with a transfer, but if you don’t want to leave City Z, then there won’t be a chance to get promoted. There are trade-offs. I won’t interfere with your decision, so you decide for yourself.”

“What do you think?” Zhuang Shurong asked.

Mu Tangchuan paused, then said, “You have always had outstanding results. Many people at the provincial government department recommend you. There were probably people from the municipal committee who went to talk to you already. The disciplinary inspection department has probably done the reviews, so it’s a very good opportunity for you.”

“But I don’t want to be transferred from here.”

“If that’s the case, then you’ll have to give up on this opportunity.”

“Mmm, that’s all I can do. I’m worried about how things are right now too.”

“Ah Rong, you’ve calmed down a lot these past few years,” Mu Tangchuan said with a faint joy that could not be hidden in his tone.

Mu Tangchuan and Zhuang Shurong had been married for more than 30 years now. At first, it felt like they had married to combine their forces on the political scene, and there were not many feelings, to begin with. They just felt like they matched each other, and the two were quite compatible, so they planned to just spend the rest of their lives together.

Unexpectedly, after they got married, their relationship was actually great. Zhuang Shurong was very competitive and would even be stubborn sometimes. She often had differing opinions from Mu Tangchuan, but he was tolerant and rarely bickered with her.

“Why? Do you think you’ve been tortured all these years?” Zhuang Shurong obviously understood what he was implying.

“Am I that kind of person? What kind of capable man would be petty with his own woman?”

“You’re clever with your words!”

“How else could I have survived until now?”

…

At a certain airport in New York, USA.

After a long flight of more than 10 hours, Xi Xiaye felt exhausted. Even though she had fallen asleep for a while on the flight, she was still quite worn out.

She had not flown for so many hours in a long while. The last time she had done so was for their wedding last year.

Xi Xiaye was technically traveling secretly, so apart from the two bodyguards with her, she did not bring anyone else along.

Late-night New York was charming. This world-famous bustling city could not compare to City Z but, once Xi Xiaye landed, she could feel a stifling sensation in the air, and she did not like this feeling.

“CEO Xi, the car’s ready outside,” one of the bodyguards said respectfully.

Xi Xiaye nodded gently and calmly responded, “Go straight to Chairman Mu’s hotel.”

“Yes, CEO Xi.”

Then, Xi Xiaye walked ahead.

She had just stepped out of the airport when a cold breeze came from in front. It was fall in October. While fall was not very cold in City Z, it was much colder in New York. In fact, it had been raining for the past two days, so the temperature was quite low. Xi Xiaye was only wearing a black dress that she had on when she left City Z, so she was freezing when she stepped out.

Xi Xiaye could not help but shudder as she got into the car quickly. Then, the car slowly drove towards their destination.

It was close to midnight now, but the flourishing New York was still exceptionally lively.

Xi Xiaye had previously asked Li Si which hotel Mu Yuchen was staying at, so they did not delay their journey. When they reached the hotel, the gloomy air had another layer of moisture to it.

It was not raining heavily, but when you stood long enough, it was enough to wet your head and shoulders.

When the car drove past the hotel lobby, Xi Xiaye suddenly said, “Let’s just park here.”

“Yes, CEO Xi.”

The car quickly stopped on the side.

Xi Xiaye hastily pulled the door open to get down while the bodyguard quickly went over with an umbrella.

Xi Xiaye lifted a hand to reject him since it was only a few steps. She did not need to be so pampered, but the cold winds that attacked her made her shiver. When she saw that the bodyguards were only wearing a shirt, she said, “I’ll go over. The two of you go arrange other things.”

Then, she walked ahead.

Many people moved in and out of the hotel that towered into the clouds.

Xi Xiaye stood at the staircase at the entrance and looked at the tall building that she could barely see the top of. Suddenly, she stopped walking as she felt a wave of emotions rise within her. Right now, it was hard to explain the anticipation and nervousness she felt.

She had to admit that there was a longing that gathered in her heart. It was the Mid-Autumn Festival today, but you could not see the bright moon here, with this weather…

When Xi Xiaye looked up at that dreary sky, her beautiful face broadened with a smile. She was about to walk in when suddenly a familiar voice came from behind.

“Master, the people tonight were clearly targetting Master Mo. Ah Bo has checked. They had some conflicts with Master Mo before and suffered under Master Mo’s subordinates. This time, they’re trying to seize this opportunity and they won’t let it go!”

His anxious voice contained some anger, but Xi Xiaye could hear it very clearly!

Who else could it be but Li Si?

When Xi Xiaye heard him, she could not help but be stunned. Then, she suddenly turned around and slowly looked up.

What greeted her sight was a flash of white…

Mu Yuchen wore a dark tailored suit with a black windbreaker on his shoulders. He was walking towards the hotel while his bodyguard in black held up an umbrella behind him and Li Si carried a heavy briefcase beside him.

At this moment, Mu Yuchen’s handsome face remained still. It seemed to have an added layer of intensity compared to his usual self. He seemed to look thinner too.

He passed the dim streetlights and quickly reached the staircase. Li Si and the rest followed closely behind. The row of them all looked like they had a lot on their mind.

Xi Xiaye stood quietly where she was and did not immediately make a sound until Li Si’s surprised cry cut through the horizon.

“Missus! Why are you here?” His shocked voice exploded like a sudden clap of thunder in the stifling air. Instantly, Mu Yuchen subconsciously stopped walking and quickly looked up.

Xi Xiaye’s slender figure trembled slightly in the rustling cold wind. She looked travel-worn and her hair fell on her chest messily while her clear eyes were filled with a mistiness…
