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

Chapter 1416 Lost Without You 2

There was a lot of work to do before the year ended as many things needed to be arranged, and the company’s foreign debts needed to be collected too in order for there to be solid funds to run the projects. While Glory World Corporation was a large corporation, it may not be as easy to operate as others may have thought.

Just take the company’s foreign debts from this year. They had taken up a huge part of the company’s profits, but by the end of the year, many were behind payments, so Glory World’s upper management was busy chasing after these funds.

It was in this dead of the night, in Glory World Corporation’s Chairman’s office that Mu Yuchen was going through the documents for these debts.

It was the weekend tomorrow. It had been quite a while since he had properly spent time with Xiaye and his sons, so Mu Yuchen wanted to get these matters done so he could have a relaxing weekend. Therefore, once he got busy, he would forget the time until he finished going through all documents. Finally, realized that it was already past 11 p.m.

He frowned and quickly pulled open the drawer to take out his phone. That was when he realized that his phone had been on silent, and he had missed many calls from Xiaye.

He immediately called her back as he got up and swiftly tidied his table before leaving the office quickly.

When the phone rang, Xi Xiaye was already reaching Glory World Corporation by car.

“I’m downstairs. Quickly come down. It’s already so late.”

Xi Xiaye slowed the car down and picked up the phone. Before the man could say anything, she had already spoken up. Her tone seemed to contain a hint of enforcement, so Master Mu could not help but raise his brows. He tilted his head to the side and squinted at his phone.

However, the woman on the other end had already hung up.

He was stunned for a moment. Then, his handsome face flashed with a faint smile as he locked the door and went downstairs.

He had just walked out of the office entrance when the two guards by the door greeted him respectfully. He nodded gently and then his cold figure walked past the door. Soon, he saw the Cayenne parked by the entrance. She was in the driver’s seat with one hand propped up by the car window as she waited for him.

He got into the car very quickly.

He buckled up, looked at her, and asked in a lowered voice, “Why have you come?”

She rolled her eyes at him and could not help but sigh. “You didn’t pick up when I called, and it’s already so late. I feel lost without you around, so I decided to just come over. I find that you’re becoming naughtier now. Even if you plan on working overtime, you should give home a call.”

“In the morning, Mother brought our son over. The little fellow was sleeping, and I was worried about waking him up, so I put my phone on silent. There are too many foreign debts to handle. I didn’t think it’d be this late when I’d be done with work,” he said softly as his lips curled up slightly. Upon seeing the way she furrowed her brows, he smiled and said, “What were you worried about? Are you angry now?”

“I don’t have the time to be angry. This isn’t your first time. The next time if you won’t be home before 8 p.m., please update me with your movements. You haven’t been honest lately. The night before yesterday at that banquet, that Miss Dong seemed quite interested you. You’re happy about that, aren’t you? She kept calling you Yu Chen and all. Even I don’t call you that, and you chatted quite happily with her.”

She started the car as she shot him a look.

“She was my next-door classmate when I was studying. If you didn’t bring it up, I would’ve forgotten about it. How do you have the mood to think of these things?” He chuckled helplessly, yet his eyes contained a faint sentiment.

“I’m feeling insecure. Can’t you tell that I’m jealous?”

“What brand of jealousy is that?” he raised his handsome brows and asked with a smile.

“The Mu Yuchen brand,” she said without concealing her feelings.

He then laughed out softly. “This is good for your beauty, Missus. So what if she calls me by my name? There’s something that no one else can call me, but you...do you know which one that is?” he said, and then gave her a meaningful glance with those eyes filled with love.

Upon hearing that, she paused, then smiled. “Husband?”

Her light voice had a hint of tenderness. When Mu Yuchen heard her, his handsome face was instantly colored with a suspicious blush, so he cleared his throat and turned to look out of the car although he wore a hidden smile.

“What a pretentious man...Hey, Mr. Mu, I find that you’re actually quite cute when you’re shy. The way you are right now reminds me of back in high school when Ruan Heng received a reply from Su Nan and looked like she was high up in the clouds.”

She was in a good mood and enjoyed watching the man beside her being uncomfortable, so she did not let go of the chance to tease him now.

Mu Yuchen cleared his throat, gave her a side look, and instantly returned to his usual calmness. “I’m so thick-skinned that I don’t know what being shy is.”

“Please! But I’m serious. Sometimes, I really want to just tie you down.”

“If I had those intentions, it wouldn’t work no matter how much you tie me down even if you had ten dogs chasing after me.”

“You’re quite proud of that, aren’t you?”

“How dare I?”

“At least, you’re tactful.”

...

When the husband and wife returned to Maple Residence, it was already past midnight. They heated up the dishes from earlier and began to eat.

“Gu Qiwu’s thing is almost wrapped up, isn’t it? Didn’t you say two days ago that the murderer has been tracked down?” Xi Xiaye suddenly recalled.

Mu Lingshi had already made the decision, and the family all supported her. Zhuang Shurong wanted her to stay there for now, and only go when she’s given birth, but it looked like that might not happen.

Mu Yuchen paused before he responded, “The latest information and evidence have been sent over. It can be transferred to City B. As long as he doesn’t leave the country, he can stay in City B. The police station over there is handling the transfer procedure, so he can probably leave City Z before the New Year. On Lingshi’s end, it’s up to her. Of course, it’ll be great if she can stay to celebrate the New Year.”

“If that’s the case, I’m afraid that won’t be possible. Ask Aunt Lin to go over with her. With her taking care of things, I feel better. Grandfather will definitely miss her. Hold on. Once Ah Mo and Ah Shi leave, the house is going to feel quiet. Grandpa will be alone at home. I thought about it. We could redecorate the second floor and let Grandfather move in with us. There’s Sis Wang here, and our sons are always around too, so it’s good to meet every day.”

“Grandfather’s the kind of person that likes his peace and quiet. I brought this up to him before, but he will miss the old residence.”

“Grandfather loved Grandmother deeply. After she passed away, how could he not feel lonely?”
