Master's Untamed Wife

Mu Chenyan came out of the reverie when she heard some noise. She looked over and found Yue Yue come out of her bedroom. She glanced at Mu Chenyan.

'What are you doing?'

Mu Chenyan feigned ignorance quite well, "What are you talking about?"

Yue Yue came to sit opposite her stared at her face intently, 'Why did we fly to Nazhou? Didn't you say we'd be staying in Jiangzhou for another week?'

"Well, life is always changing. Why can't my plans change? Besides, Nanzhou is a beautiful place. The best part is, the spring is already in full bloom here. You'll love it here!" Mu Chenyan's current expression resembled those slimy kidnappers who tried to lure kids into their traps by offering candies.

But even though she looked really unreliable, Yue Yue still let her be.

'I'm gonna go rest then. I'm tired,' said Yue Yue and went back to her bedroom to take a nap.

Since Mu Chenyan had been an energetic girl in her youth, one could still see the shadow of that energetic personality. It was truly hard for Yue Yue to keep up with Mu Chenyan's energy since she was getting on age now. But apparently, she was a year or two younger than Mu Chenyan, and yet, she was the one who was tired like an old lady while Mu Chenyan was like a teenager who finally got the chance to escape house arrest.

"Get a good sleep, Yue!" called out Mu Chenyan from behind and flinched when Yue slammed the door shut. But instead of finding it strange, Mu Chenyan chuckled, "Aiyah! I'm simply amazing! I even have the talent to evoke the deeply buried temper of a gentle and soft-spoken woman like Yue." Mu Chenyan patted her own shoulders, "Chen Chen, you're too good!"

Mu Chenyan picked up her phone and looked through all the information she received since last night. In fact, coming to Nanzhou unplanned was actually because of everything she learned. She had a purpose for specifically coming here. Besides, she wasn't actually lying to Yue earlier when she told how beautiful Nanzhou was. She was all too well familiar with this city, and she without a doubt could say that the spring in Nanzhou was one the best she had seen.

While she was had a clear purpose for being here, she was feeling a bit guilty in her heart for some reason. And that's why when suddenly her phone rang and she was the called id, she almost dropped her phone.

She took three deep calming breaths before taking the call. "As always, our Elle doesn't forget to follow her schedule."

Raelle heard her voice and stayed silent for a moment before stating, "You already learned about the last night's happenings." She was clearly stating a fact and there was no hint of like she wanted to confirm it from her personally.

Mu Chenyan walked out on the balcony and closed the glass door. Leaning against the railing, she answered, "I have to be well-informed since my Elle has finally learned how to lie."

"Raelle Xiang doesn't lie," said Raelle calmly. "Yanyan never taught Raelle how to lie. Yanyan only taught Raelle how to hide things. But if Yanyan asks, Raelle will answer everything honestly."

Mu Chenyan felt a complex emotion when she heard Raelle talking like this. It was true, she never taught Raelle to lie. And it was also true that the reason why Raelle was able to hide things was her as well.

After all, with Raelle's straightforward personality, she might have shared unnecessary things with people she wasn't supposed to. That's why Mu Chenyan had to instruct her patiently that she had to wait for the other person to ask the question before answering. And even then, only give brief replies. There was no need to go into details.

Because of Mu Chenyan's teaching, Raelle answered precisely to each and every question. And that could be said to be the reason why Shui Xian wasn't able to dig deeper into Raelle's life.

Mu Chenyan sighed and said, "Elle, I'm actually glad that you learned to hide things." A gust of wind hit the side of her face and her hair flew around. She pushed her hair back and looked back. The scene before her eyes was just as beautiful as she could recall it. The wind made the cherry blossoms flew around and made it seem like the rain of cherry blossoms. She extended her hand and caught a flying cherry blossom in the palm of her hand.

"Did Elder Xiang come to see you?"

Raelle hummed in reply, "Opa just left. I asked him to stay for dinner but he refused."

Mu Chenyan chuckled, "He'd rather eat alone than becoming a lightbulb between you and your husband."

"Yanyan, you didn't tell Yue about any of it, right?"

"I'm not mad. At least, not to that extent yet. I didn't say a word to her."

"That's good," replied Raelle. "Hyson doesn't want her to know anything for now."

"I figured," answered Mu Chenyan. "How is our son-in-law?"

"He is fine."

"Have you checked the details of the people involved in Yue Fai's movie crew?" inquired Mu Chenyan even though she knew the answer very well on her own.

"I did." Raelle could also tell why she asked this question specifically. "But that isn't enough for me to back out."

"I also figured that out," replied Mu Chenyan. "I didn't raise a woman who would give up just because things got complicated. And no matter what you choose to do, just know that your Yanyan is always on your side."

"And if I murder someone?" asked Raelle out of the blue.

"Then I'll help you in hiding the body." Mu Chenyan didn't even need to think before she could answer this question.

"Then if someone saw me doing the murder?"

"I'll clean the witness up as well."

Raelle nodded her head which Mu Chenyan couldn't see but she could hear Raelle's hum of acknowledgment. "That means I'm really not going overboard."

Mu Chenyan shook her head when she realized that Raelle asked those questions to confirm that she wasn't going overboard.

"Don't think about this messy stuff anymore," said Mu Chenyan.

"Okay."

"Take care of yourself!"

"Hmm... You too, Yanyan!"

When Raelle hung up the phone, Mu Chenyan's face didn't lose the gentle and comforting smile that had crawled up on her lips. She took in the fresh air around her before slipping inside the room to take some rest as well.

She slept for half an hour before she got back up and washed up before changing into a new set of clothes. Yue Yue came out of the bedroom again while rubbing her eyes. Her mouth had opened as she yawned and she raised her hand to place it before her mouth when her hand paused looking at Mu Chenyan getting all geared up.

Yue poured herself a glass of water and sat down as she continued to look at Mu Chenyan.

'Where are you going?'

Mu Chenyan's eyes were on her hand signs before she answered, "I have to catch up with some old friends."

'You don't have any old friends,' Yue pierced right through Mu Chenyan's lie. 'Forget it. Wherever you're going take me with you. I really don't trust you.'

Mu Chenyan acted like she was actually sad to learn about that. But Mu Chenyan didn't pay her any attention at all. She simply rushed her to get dressed.

Mu Chenyan took her straight to the big garage that had so many vintage cars in it that it made even Yue Yue's brows raise up in surprise.

'Who do these belong to?' asked Yue in curiosity.

"Me," replied Mu Chenyan as she took a key from the sets of keys hanging on the wall. "This is my dad's collection. He left it all to me."

Yue nodded her head and suddenly something clicked, 'This house is also yours?'

Mu Chenyan shrugged her shoulders, "Didn't I tell you? My family left me with enough money to last a lifetime even if I squandered it all. This house happens to be one of those properties that were left to me. I just don't come here. I spent my early childhood here. It's a beautiful memory." Then she faced Yue and smiled at her, "But no matter how beautiful memory is, it can only bring you pain. And I certainly am not someone who would wallow in pain."

Yue gave her a thumbs-up as she opened the door of the white jeep wrangler and took her seat. She could see that even though Mu Chenyan didn't live in this house, everything was organized here. That meant someone regularly took care of this place and everything inside this place.

Even the cars here were well maintained. That meant, no matter the old models or the new models like this jeep wrangler she sat in, everything could be driven out at any time.
