Master's Untamed Wife

On the other side, Mu Chenyan took off her glasses and rubbed the nose bridge. Stretching her neck, she picked the cup of coffee from the side of the laptop only to realize that it was already empty. Shaking her head, she stood up and decided to get herself another cup of coffee.

Opening a business at this age too was no easy feat. Even though she had it a lot easier than most people she still couldn't bring herself to leave everything to professionals. Since the idea was hers, she had to work for it. She had to create a brand for Yue and let her be recognized in the world!

She couldn't leave her best friend to fend for herself. Especially now that she had already taken so much pain to pull Yue out of her shell. She made a strong coffee for herself and took a sip feeling content. But as soon as she walked out of the kitchen she ran into someone.

"Anna?" Mu Chenyan frowned at her and looked at the time. "What are you doing here at this time?"

"It's about Missy," answered Anna.

"What? If it's nothing too serious, you don't have to tell me. It's not like I asked you to stalk her," chuckled Mu Chenyan. "I just want her safe."

"We didn't do our job well today," said Anna. "We were negligent in protecting Missy."

Mu Chenyan lost her playful vibes as a serious aura burst out of her, "Tell me in detail about what's going on?" Since her original employer had been Mu Chenyan, Anna had genuine respect for this woman. So, she didn't hide anything regarding Raelle's visit to the military base. Mu Chenyan almost smashed the cup she was holding but held herself back, "Why didn't you call me? If you have called, would I have let those bastards take my family's darling for an investigation as a suspect? Are they looking for death?" She roared at Anna, "Who was it? Who was leading the team?"

Anna cleared her throat before answering, "Special Forces, Major Xiang Wai."

Mu Chenyan looked like someone punched a hole in her balloon because someone just threw cold water on the fire that had lit up inside of her. She held her head and waved her off, "You can leave now." She took a deep breath to gather her thoughts before saying, "This is tricky."

She felt some tapping on her shoulder and turned to see that Yue was standing behind her with an empty water bottle in her hands.

"Did you hear it?"

Yue nodded her head in reply.

Mu Chenyan sighed out, "Isn't this exactly the kind of a situation our Elle would call 'troublesome'?"

Yue nodded once again and sat down beside her, 'What are you gonna do now?"

Mu Chenyan shrugged her shoulders, "I have no idea. On one side is my Elle and on the other side is also my niece."

Yue could also understand what kind of a dilemma she was going through but there was nothing she could say to help Mu Chenyan out. In fact, even if she said something, Mu Chenyan was never the kind of person to do what others wanted her to. She did everything according to her mood. No one could force her to do anything.

"I need to think about it carefully," added Mu Chenyan.

'Why don't you tell Elder Xiang? He'd be able to help out,' suggested Yue.

Mu Chenyan shook her head, "There is no need to get him involved in this. In fact, I have the answer already." She looked at Yue and told her, "Although Xiang Wai is indeed my niece, I'm a biased person. And my biasedness will always lean towards my Elle. Even if I have to wrong someone in this world, that person can never be my Elle. Never ever! And I won't allow someone else to wrong her either. Even if that person is her own sister."

Yue already had expected such a result. Because at the end of the day, Raelle was more than just a niece to Mu Chenyan. She had given the best years of life to Raelle. She was far too precious to Mu Chenyan than anyone else. Also, the promise she gave to Madam Xiang had been instilled in Mu Chenyan's soul now. She'd do anything to give Raelle the best!

'Don't go too far,' Yue still warned Mu Chenyan.

Mu Chenyan agreed readily, "Since Elle isn't really hurt, I obviously won't go too far."

'Now, go back to sleep.'

"I still have to sort out some details," replied Mu Chenyan.

'You can do it tomorrow,' said Yue.

"But when I can do it now, why to leave it to tomorrow?" retorted Mu Chenyan. "You stop thinking about me. You work on your designs. Your job is still just to put your inspiration on the piece of paper. The rest is up to me. I won't disappoint you." She pushed Yue towards her room as she muttered, "How about you bake a cake in the morning? And some cookies as well?"

Yue gave her a strange look, 'Where did this thought come from at this time of the night?'

"It's because I think Fai was looking a little down when he came home in the evening. Although he seemed fine after he came from Elle's place, I still think he'll feel better if you bake a cake for him. He'd forget all his worries before the cake."

'That's my son. Even I don't pay him as much attention as you do.'

"I've just become an expert at seeing through people since I had to raise a girl named Raelle. And let me remind you, it's no easy feat to read that girl. Reading Hyson is way too easy since he wears all his feelings right on his face."

'He isn't that easy to read. But just as you said, it's you who is too good at reading him like a book.'

"Thanks for the compliment."
