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

“Then, Sis Lan, do you remember Mr. Wen?”

The way Xi Xiaye asked the question was straightforward like a cool wind that breezed through the quiet woods. However, her question felt like a strong wind on the sea. The huge impact created many large, turbulent waves!

Sis Lan’s eyes widened as her body trembled slightly. She gaped at Xi Xiaye with astonishment in her panicked eyes as the latter observed every little detail.

Sis Lan shook her head a moment later. “I don’t remember. I don’t know any Mr. Wen!”

“Really? But I’ve seen Mr. Wen before, and I heard that… Well, I thought you’d know.” Xi Xiaye tried to get something out of her.

“I don’t remember, I don’t remember it at all. Please go back and never come again. I’m feeling tired now.” Sis Lan decided it was time for her to go.

Xi Xiaye stood up. “Okay, please have a good rest, Sis Lan. Sorry for bothering you today and thank you. Here’s my name card. We definitely won’t give up on finding out more. The truth will never be hidden forever. If you remember anything, please do give me a call.”

Xi Xiaye placed her name card on the table before she turned around and walked towards the door.

Before Xi Xiaye left, Sis Lan suddenly called out to her, “Wait!”

Xi Xiaye halted in her steps but did not turn back to look at her.

“That Mr. Wen… His surname isn’t Wen… I can only tell you this much!” Sis Lan’s voice came from the back.

“Thank you!”

Ji Zitong alertly went up to Xi Xiaye the moment she came out of the room. “Director Xi!”

Xi Xiaye nodded to her. “Let’s go!”

…

Mu Yuchen had put his laptop away when they arrived back at the car. He gave her a kind smile when he noticed her grim expression. “What’s wrong? Didn’t get any information?”

Xi Xiaye took a deep breath and looked at him as her eyes darkened. She ran her fingers through her hair anxiously. “She’s unwilling to talk. I’m sure she knows something. She was obviously startled when I mentioned Mr. Wen. She must know him, and their relationship certainly is special.”

“Mr. Wen?”

A light flashed past his eyes as he grinned.

“Yes, it should be that Mr. Wen. I think he holds a grudge against you and shares a special relationship with Sis Lan, which means that he’d know about Aunty. Do you think that…?” She made a bold hypothesis as she shot Mu Yuchen a furtive glance.

He instantly knew what she meant with just a single glance from her. He put his arm over her shoulders. “We’ll find out after looking into it.”

“Sis Lan said that it might not be beneficial if we know the answer. I can’t help but feel that she’s trying to tell us something. By the way, she also mentioned that the man has a family. He hid it from Aunty…and Mr. Wen’s surname isn’t Wen.”

Xi Xiaye tried her best to recall everything while Mu Yuchen listened and nodded patiently. “Continue.”

She seemed encouraged as she went on, “No doubt Sis Lan knows what happened, and Mr. Wen’s sudden appearance recently isn’t a coincidence. I feel that especially when I met Sis Lan just now, I’m starting to get the big picture. We should keep an eye on Sis Lan and we might get some clues.”

“That’s quite a brilliant idea. We should be watching over her secretly, but with your actions, something might be happening. Don’t worry. We’ll find out if we put in more effort.” He sounded calm as if everything was under his control.

Mu Yuchen twirled Xi Xiaye’s hair as he told Zitong, “Zitong, head over to the Imperial Sky Hotel.”

“Yes, Chairman Mu!” Ji Zitong stepped on the pedal after a brief reply.

“Why go there?” Xi Xiaye gave him a doubtful glance.

He stared at her and asked quietly, “It’s almost noon. Aren’t you hungry?”

At that moment, Xi Xiaye did feel her stomach growl in response.

Traveling to the west of the city all the way from the north took almost two hours even though they used the expressway, and with the crowded city jam, it was noon when they arrived at the Imperial Sky Hotel. Their meal had been prepared beforehand, and all of them were her favorite dishes. However, she could not enjoy them. Instead, she felt disgusted after trying the first dish. Frantically, she rushed into the restroom and started vomiting, yet only her bile came out.

When she emerged from the restroom, Mu Yuchen was outside waiting for her. She looked terrible as he gave her a glass of water. After taking a few sips, she felt slightly better.

He frowned when he saw her pale face and slightly trembling lips. He held her arm and asked with concern while his eyes were filled with anxiety, “Feeling better now?”

Xi Xiaye wiped the moisture at the corner of her mouth and shook her head. “I’m alright. I’ll be better after taking some pills at home. The dishes here feel odd. They aren’t as good as your cooking.”

“Please get a full body check up soon, especially your stomach. Didn’t you get better some time ago?”

“There’s no need…”

“This is an order. It’s not up for discussion. Let Zitong accompany you.” He uttered those words before dragging her out.

…

They planned to head back to the Maple Residence right away. However, a huge crowd unexpectedly rushed over, and before Xi Xiaye could react, she was already surrounded!

It was the reporters!

Xi Xiaye felt like she was getting drowned. Even though Ji Zitong tried her best to act as a shield in front of her, the countless flashlights made it hard for her to open her eyes, and their questions lit a raging fire up inside her!

“Ms. Xi Xiaye, what’s your relationship with the Master of Qi Kai?”

“He brought you back to his place late at night. What do you have to say about that?”

“I heard you were supposed to marry into the Qi family. Is that true?”

“What do you think of your husband right now? Did something happen in your marriage, that’s why you’re now desperate to cling onto the Master of Qi Kai?”
