The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife Chapter 1031 - Worried (2)

They had been married for so long, yet this was her first time seeing him look this distressed.

She suddenly felt upset for him. Her hands could not help but circle his waist while her beautiful face stuck close to his. “Don’t despair. There will be a way. We need to calm down. That way, we can come up with a solution that can easily solve everything.”

She always thought that when all problems reached him, they would become simple and easy since nothing could ever defeat him.

Ever since she got together with him, even she could feel more relaxed. However, upon seeing his worry that he could not hide now, she suddenly realized that he needed very broad wings to hold up the blue sky for the both of them, letting them soar carefreely, while she seemed to only know how to enjoy such protection and never had to work hard to bear any burden with him.

She had been slacking. Even if he had never shared any burden with her, she was already his wife. How could she just watch him charge ahead while she only knew how to hide behind his protection? At this instant, Xi Xiaye suddenly started to reflect upon herself, and she suddenly realized that she really had not been a great wife all the time he had always been such a great husband and father.

Alas, what else could she do right now? This was a hopeless case!

Mu Zi did get together with Gu Qiwu even though she had known then that Gu Qiwu was married to Doris. In fact, Mu Lings.h.i.+ was clearly Gu Lingsha’s sister from a different mother. Putting it harshly, Mu Lings.h.i.+ was his illegitimate daughter while Mu Zi was his mistress who had given up on herself. It was also clear that Gu Qiwu was very loving toward his wife, Doris, so how could Mu Zi not be condemned profusely if the truth got out?

She could not think of a way to win this game either!

He did not say anything as he silently held her tight. The study room suddenly became extremely quiet, so you could only hear the wind gently lifting the curtains. At that point, Mu Yuchen became fazed. He could only feel her faint heartwarming body warmth.

Xi Xiaye struggled internally for a long while, then finally calmed down as she stroked his s.h.i.+rt to softly say, “If we want to be in control of taking the initiative, we have to be one step ahead of them. Mr. Mu, let’s not rush first and calm down. We’ll think of something.”

He breathed in and fell silent for a moment before he reached out to pat her head. His fingers combed through her dark hair as he fixed it for her. “Mmm, we’ll find a way. Don’t worry. Your man’s not someone who will be taken down so easily.”

Upon hearing that, Xi Xiaye smiled and slowly stood up, her starry eyes as bright as the autumn waters. She chuckled. “Mmm, to me, you’re someone who won’t be defeated. You’re a sacred warrior that will never give up, a hero.”

As Mu Yuchen listened to her encouraging words, a gentle smile quickly flashed across his face. His long fingers then gently tapped her forehead. “I almost thought I was Ultraman.”

“Mmm, Ultraman always only shows his greatness towards the end. Mr. Mu, I believe in you. Alright now, it’s late. Rest earlier. Maybe you’ll think of something tomorrow. Go wash up first. I’ll pack the doc.u.ments you need for tomorrow.”

She tiptoed and planted a kiss on the corner of his smiling lips before she turned to walk towards the work desk.

Stunned, he watched her slender figure going over to his desk. The sorrow in his dark eyes was instantly replaced with tenderness. Without saying anything more, he turned to walk out…

Upon hearing the sound of his footsteps leaving, Xi Xiaye, who was silently tidying up the doc.u.ments, suddenly stopped what she was doing. She peered down at the doc.u.ments before her, then after a while, she glanced up towards the door. She did not move for a long time, yet her eyes revealed a glimmer of determination.

…

The next day, Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye went to work as always. They woke up very early, and after a simple breakfast, they left for work.

She had been on a break for quite a few days. Even though Lan Zilang was holding down the fort in the office, the doc.u.ments that required her signature had still piled up by quite a bit. Xi Xiaye had just sat down when her a.s.sistant, Xiao Mei, walked in with a stack of doc.u.ments.

“Director Xi, here are the materials from Hua Heng. CEO Hua would like to meet you in the next two days. He says that he wants to meet up to discuss the materials. Also, VP Zhang Lan from Glory World has sent over some doc.u.ments regarding the South River Project.”

When Xiao Mei said that, Xi Xiaye immediately remembered her discussion about the materials with Shen Yue. She thought about it, then nodded. “Please respond that I’d like to meet CEO Hua for tea tomorrow afternoon. See if he can make it.”

“Got it, Director Xi!” Xiao Mei put the doc.u.ments on the desk before she retreated.

Xi Xiaye swiftly began to look through the doc.u.ments. When she reached the end of the doc.u.ments and saw the words ‘Zhang Lan’, she was stunned for a moment. An idea popped into her head and she suddenly thought of someone!

She immediately stopped as the light in her eyes flickered for a while before she quickly picked up her handphone and called a number she had not called in a while.

“h.e.l.lo, Miss Xi?” A m.u.f.fled and puzzled voice came from the other end.

“Detective Zhang, yes, it’s me, Xi Xiaye,” she answered quickly.

“We haven’t been in contact for a long while now. Is Elder Shen doing well?” Detective Zhang and Shen Yue had some friendly relations, so he asked about how he was doing.

“Grandpa’s doing rather well. He’s recently retired, so he’s been quite idle. Detective Zhang, you could go over to the Shen residence for a visit if you’re free. Thank you for your concern. Anyway, can I meet you right away? There are some things I’m afraid I need your help with again!” Xi Xiaye said in a humble tone.

A burst of candid laughter came in response. “No need to be so courteous with me now. How about this? Let’s meet this afternoon at our usual spot.”

Xi Xiaye then smiled gratefully. “Alright then, 3 p.m. this afternoon.”

Detective Zhang answered with a grunt from the other end, then hung up.

Once she was done with that, she could also go to Glory World. Hopefully, she could get some good news. She silently set aside her phone that had already dimmed, then she fell silent for a long time as she pondered further. Later, she continued to flip through the doc.u.ments in front of her.
