Master's Untamed Wife

Since Cloe had the rest of the day to herself, she decided to spend some more time with Hyson talking to him. Even though she wished to learn more about him, Hyson didn't let anything else slip. The only reason he told her about the bullying was that he momentarily lost himself. Otherwise, he had never brought it up before others except for people closest to him.

Or perhaps, he should say that even his mother had no idea that he had been bullied when he was young. Even when he used to get into fights, he would never let her know what was the fight about. He'd do anything to make sure his mother didn't get to hear any mean words.

Suddenly, the door of the hospital room was pushed open and Yue Yue rushed in with Mu Chenyan following her.

"Mum!" Hyson stood up immediately when his eyes caught her sight.

Yue didn't look at his sparkly eyes, her eyes were wandering all around his body. She made him turn left and right to thoroughly inspect his body. She wanted to make sure that there weren't any wounds. But seeing the bruises that had actually lightened a lot, made her heart hurt painfully.

"Aiya!" Hyson hugged her tightly. "It isn't as bad as it looks. Trust me."

Yue Yue slapped his back and he laughed even louder.

"I'm not lying to you!" he said in his defense. "A strong woman like you gave birth to an iron man like me. How can this much hurt?"

Yue didn't fall for his playful remarks at all and continued to hug him tightly. In fact, she was using his heartbeat against her ear as reassurance. And the warmth of his body allowed her to believe that her son was safe and was in her arms right now.

Meanwhile, Mu Chenyan looked at this heartwarming scene from the side and even flicked a tear that was even there as she said, "How touching!" Then she looked at Cloe who stood beside her and asked, "Hi, Cloe! What's up? Haven't seen you in days!"

"Hello, Miss Mu," greeted Cloe. "It's good to see you back." She took a pause and asked, "Miss Mu, is that Hyson's mom?"

Mu Chenyan looked at Yue and then back at Cloe before nodding her head, "Yeah. Why?"

"She..." Cloe took a pause to sort out her words before continuing, "She looks beautiful like fine jade."

Mu Chenyan chuckled softly, "I know, right? She is indeed beautiful. If I was a man, I'd have already asked her out. Such a shame that I can't show her off."

Cloe gave Mu Chenyan a strange look as she said, "It's not surprising that someone like you raised Chief."

"Only someone amazing like me could raise your peerless Chief," answered Mu Chenyan shamelessly.

"Have you ever noticed?" asked Cloe.

"What?"

"Your persona in front of Chief and your persona for the rest of world are wildly different," said Cloe. "In front of Chief, you are the epitome of gentleness. You are loving and caring and thoughtful. But for the rest of the world, you're shrewd, sharp-tongued, shameless, and even brutal!"

Mu Chenyan's smile widened, "It seems it was right to appoint you as Elle's assistant. Only someone with a keen observation like you could survive around her."

Cloe didn't know whether she should be surprised or not at the fact that Mu Chenyan actually accepted everything she said about her without any hesitation.

After that, Mu Chenyan stepped up to pull Yue away from Hyson saying, "If you continued to hug him, how will I get the chance to hug him?'

Yue glared at Mu Chenyan but the latter was indifferent about it. Mu Chenyan pinched Hyson's cheeks saying, "My little cutie, how are you?"

"Yanyan!" Hyson whined at that 'little cutie.'

Mu Chenyan rubbed his head lovingly, "No matter how you deny it, you're still gonna be my little cutie. Now and forever!" Even though she knew he didn't like being called 'cute', he couldn't help it. Although Hyson didn't have a cute face, his eyes always made him appear adorable.

"I'm handsome!" he announced narcissistically. "Not cute!"

"Yes, yes. Our Fai is cutely handsome!" said Mu Chenyan making Hyson want to stomp his feet in frustration. Hyson was gnashing his teeth but he couldn't do anything. He loved this lady too much to do or say anything to her. Apart from that, Hyson really respected and admired Mu Chenyan, so most of the time, he'd gladly accept defeat before her.

Yue pushed Mu Chenyan aside and said, 'Stop teasing my son.'

"Yes, my lady!" Mu Chenyan immediately bowed before Yue making Hyson laugh out.

'Behave, we have an outside here,' reminded Yue as she pointed at Cloe.

"Cloe knows me way too well. She even just called me shameless which means she has read me inside out. There is no need for me to keep a facade before her," replied Mu Chenyan. "Besides, Cloe is like family. She has worked with Elle for years."

Cloe was instantly touched when Mu Chenyan said that she was like family. Perhaps, even Mu Chenyan didn't know how much those words meant to Cloe right now who had been struggling to get an acknowledgment from her own family for years.

Cloe smiled at Yue and said to Hyson, "I should be leaving now."

"Why?"

"It's not right for me to disturb your time with your mother," said Cloe. "I'll come to see you again some other time."

Hyson nodded his head.

"Bye, Miss Mu and..." Cloe didn't know how to address Hyson's mom.

"Oh, she is Yue Yue," said Mu Chenyan.

"Right. It's nice meeting you Miss Yue. Have a nice day!"

Yue Yue smiled in return and nodded at her. Cloe didn't feel right to stay any longer and holding her doctor's file, she left to give them privacy. She knew how much Hyson must have missed his mother and it was only right to allow him to spend his time with his mother.
