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

She turned around, her bright starry eyes meeting his and he subconsciously reached to touch her head.

Upon hearing that, Mu Yuchen only laughed softly, his sensitive voice coming through. “You’re not competing with those showy young girls anyway. You’re married, and you’re now the mother of two children, so why do you care about those things for? You just do whatever makes you feel comfortable. Only I have the right to the ownership anyway, and I think you look nice no matter what,” he domineeringly and seriously announced his right to his property.

“Is that so?” She then laughed gently, breathed in, and continued, “Okay, I don’t want to talk about this anymore. Let’s continue what we were talking about earlier. You arranged for Gu Lingsha’s incident, didn’t you?”

When he heard that, he was stunned and a mix of emotions bubbled in his eyes as he looked at her. He slowly lowered his gaze and responded without denying it, “Isn’t the answer quite obvious? I admit that it’s not the best of methods, but I didn’t have any other good ideas then. When Qi Lei called me, you don’t know how I…”

“Okay, that’s enough—” When she saw that his eyes were unusually dark, she cut him off and stopped his oncoming words with her hand.

Her gentle little face only flashed with a tender smile as she held his head and planted a kiss on his cool lips while watching him. “So what if it wasn’t the best? I like that you were unscrupulous for me. If it were me, I would’ve done the same for you, Mr. Mu.”

He paused, and moments after that, he smiled gladly. With a long arm, he hugged her tightly. “Missus, am I that important to you now?”

She immediately nodded hard, her bright eyes filled with warmth and sincerity. “Yes, very important!”

“How important? Can I take the first spot now?” he continued to ask.

“What about me? Where do I stand in your heart?”

“Apart from number one, no other spot can fit you,” he answered frankly

When Xi Xiaye heard that, she could not help but feel a sourness in her heart. Some of her suppressed emotions would always be so easily riled up by him. She suddenly hugged him by the shoulders.

“Me too, Mr. Mu. For you, I sometimes wish I can give you all that I have. Even if I have to lose all my family’s fortune, as long as you’re happy, I will. When I want to help you, I always feel so useless. When it comes to these things, I don’t know what I can do.”

She knew that his persevering heart was long worn out, but apart from guarding quietly by his side, it seemed like there was not much else she could do. She was too limited in power. Even if she wanted to help with many things, it did not mean she could.

When she said that, it surprised Master Mu. He squinted and stared at her for a long while, then his handsome face blushed as he cleared his throat and lowered his gaze. He could not help but chuckle and reply softly, “Missus Mu, your love is expressed so clearly. It makes your husband feel a bit at a loss.”

“Are you pretending to be all serious again?!” Xi Xiaye refuted with a glare.

He caught her hand that came at him, then he said with a lowered voice, “Okay, I told you before that I don’t need you to do anything. Just stay by my side. You don’t seem to be doing too well without me around. You’ve become thinner, and this part here wasn’t that large, to begin with. Aren’t you worried?” His longer fingers gently pinched her waist, and lastly, his gaze fell on her chest.

She turned her face to the side and responded unhappily, “If you don’t like it, then you’re allowed to go look for bigger buns—”

“But I like your size, Missus!” Mu Yuchen immediately expressed his loyalty.

“I find that you’re becoming more and more vulgar with age, Mr. Mu.” She frowned and squinted at him.

At the sight of her tensed up little face, he laughed softly. “Your Mr. Mu is getting old now, and more vulgar.”

“Forget it. I’ll find you a younger one.”

“What a heartless woman! Didn’t you just say that you were willing to give me your all!?”

“I just said that to curry your favor…ah—”

…

The husband and wife messed around for a bit before Mu Yuchen dragged Xi Xiaye down for lunch, then the couple finally calmed down.

“On City Z’s end, Gu Qiwu and Qi Feng probably aren’t doing well. Gu Lingsha’s still detained at the police station, but I heard that Qi Feng’s working hard at the city hall. I’m not sure if they can get Gu Lingsha out soon enough. Also, Detective Zhang hasn’t gotten back with any news. There’s been no news whatsoever for a while now. I tried to contact him a few days ago, but his phone was switched off,” Xi Xiaye said as she opened her mouth to eat the steak that Mu Yuchen fed her.

“Did Doris do anything?” Mu Yuchen took a bite too as he looked up to ask her.

Xi Xiaye thought about it, then shook her head. “No, ever since she got the divorce from Gu Qiwu, she doesn’t seem to be doing much, but because of the divorce and Gu Lingsha’s incident, the Hui Gu Corporation was affected badly. I think Gu Qiwu’s quite stressed out. As for Doris, I think she might just be waiting and watching. If they have internal strife right now, they’ll be done for,” Xi Xiaye quite straightforwardly pointed out her thoughts.

Mu Yuchen nodded and stuffed another piece of cut-up steak into her mouth.

“She’s quite smart,” he said, and then a sneer flashed across his face.

“Mr. Mu, you couldn’t find any clues over here about that incident?” When Xi Xiaye saw Mu Yuchen’s gloomy gaze, she suddenly thought about Mu Lingtian’s incident.

Mu Yuchen knew what she was thinking about and the curve on his lips widened. “There’s nothing this watertight. I trust my gut feeling.”

“But Doris…I feel like she’s too rational, and she’s good at covering up too. Otherwise, if she had really done those things, she wouldn’t have been able to do it so cleanly. Furthermore, by now, so much time has passed…”

“No need to be so pessimistic. I feel like we’re getting closer to the truth and this is now a key time.”

Xi Xiaye slowly swallowed her food. “Why don’t you investigate the people that Doris had close interactions with back then?”

“Ah Bao and the rest have been doing this. Otherwise, why do you think I’d trust my gut feeling so much?” Mu Yuchen smiled and said.

Upon hearing this, Xi Xiaye had a thought and she quickly asked, “Do you have a lead?”
