He hesitated for some time before leaving his phone on the table. Then, he leaned back and closed his eyes in exhaustion.

After some time, Li Si called out to him, “Master…”

Mu Yuchen opened his eyes once again as his usual composure returned.

Li Si came over with a gla.s.s of water and some medicine.

“Master, take these pills first. You still haven’t recovered. We have someone to look after Master Mo right now, so there’s nothing to worry about.” Li Si gave him the medicine.

Mu Yuchen obediently took the pills, coughing slightly before saying, “Have a seat.”

Li Si somehow guessed what happened. He had overheard his conversation with Ah Pao when he came in just now. It must be because of the Missus. He sat down beside Mu Yuchen.

“Master, are you alright? You can rest easy now knowing that Missus is fine. She has her guard up against Qi Feng anyway, so there’s nothing to worry about,” Li Si said carefully.

Mu Yuchen pinched the s.p.a.ce between his eyebrows. “Do you think that I’m despicable?”

“Master…” Li Si was not sure what to say.

“I hate how I did it, but that’s the only way to keep them busy for the moment,” Mu Yuchen said.

“Master, you’re just letting them have a taste of their own medicine. We’d be the ones suffering if you hadn’t done so. There’s nothing wrong with your methods. Please don’t overthink.”

1“How are things at Xiao Rui’s school?” Mu Yuchen did not continue the conversation. Instead, he asked something completely different.

“I’ve found that Qi Weier has indeed transferred over to Master Xiao Rui’s school, but they are in different cla.s.ses. From what I know, Qi Feng transferred her over to this school because she didn’t want to attend the previous one she enrolled in. Should we find Master Xiao Rui another school?” Li Si asked.

Mu Yuchen frowned. “There’s no need. Changing the environment could be detrimental. We’ve got to trust him.”

“Master, Young Master’s grades are great. When I went to pick him up from school, he told me that the teachers always compliment him. I’m sure he’ll grow up to be a top scorer like you too.” Li Si smiled when he thought about Mu Zirui.

Mu Yuchen put on a proud smile as well, but his tone was calm as he said, “Xiao Rui is a hardworking kid. I just hope that he can grow up with joy. Children don’t have to work so hard. Outstanding people usually have to be burdened with more responsibilities. I want the same thing for the two of my children and their mother: a simple, happy life.”

1Mu Yuchen coughed again.

“Master, please take a break. You just took the medicine. It’s going to be the Mid-Autumn Festival soon, but I’m afraid we won’t be back in time. Fortunately, Master Mo has already woken up, or else, it’d be really worrisome.” Li Si was concerned.

“Get the lawyers Charlie and Henry over here. Tell them to meet here at 3 p.m.”

Mu Yuchen got up and grabbed his phone as he walked into the room.

…

After Xi Xiaye and Su Chen parted ways, she went back to Maple Residence right away.

Her children were already asleep, but she was surprised to find that Zhuang Shurong was staying over at Maple Residence that night. Zhuang Shurong was watching television in the living room when Xi Xiaye returned, and they had a short chat before Xi Xiaye went upstairs to wash up. Zhuang Shurong then prepared some supper for her.

“Mother, you don’t have to come over here if you’re busy. Father and you should take a break whenever there’s a chance. With Sis w.a.n.g and Aunt Fang taking care of Xiao Cheng and Xiao Rui, there’s no problem at all.”

Xi Xiaye finished the sliced chicken porridge Zhuang Shurong prepared for her.

“It’s fine. Your father and I are still going strong. We’re just worried that you might be exhausted without Ah Chen around. The two of you have been burdened with a lot ever since your grandmother pa.s.sed away, so your father and I decided to transfer the elder butler here. We don’t need that many servants at the main residence and you definitely need some help here,” Zhuang Shurong said.

Xi Xiaye did not argue and agreed right away, “Mmm, I’ll listen to you.”

“Your father is going to be busy, so I’ll be staying over whenever I’m free. I hope you don’t mind.”

Zhuang Shurong smiled. She knew she usually came across as strict and stern, but she was really happy that Xi Xiaye was her daughter-in-law as she was a very considerate and kind girl. She also knew how to carry out her filial duties and her son respected her although he was not very close to her as her son.

Xi Xiaye had done a lot of things for the family using Mu Yuchen’s name with the intention of getting them closer, hence Zhuang Shurong cherished her heartwarming behavior.

Xi Xiaye smiled. “Of course, I don’t mind…”

“Great, and now it’s time for you to sleep.”

“Mmm, you should rest early too, Mother. Goodnight!”

“Goodnight!”

…

As Xi Xiaye lay down in bed, what happened today crossed her mind, including what Su Chen told her. After arranging the information together, she somewhat reached a conclusion. She took a glance at her phone, but there was nothing.

It had been several days since Mu Yuchen called her. He only texted her once in a while, so she thought he was busy, but she was beginning to feel uncomfortable.

She could not get used to his absence…

1She then grabbed her phone and gave him a call.

Mu Yuchen was in deep sleep when his phone rang. He reached out to his phone after a while and picked up the call while he was still half asleep.
