Master's Untamed Wife

Hyson covered his eyes with his arm as he said, "Raelle Xiang offered me a way to enter her life, I'd be an idiot not to take my chance." His lips upturned ever so slightly as he went on, "And let's not forget, if I didn't fight for my way into her life, she'd be too lonely."

"So would you be," retorted Mu Chenyan as she shook her head at him. He spoke as if he wasn't as much of a loner as she was.

'Then it's a good thing they both found each other.'

Mu Chenyan nodded along with Yue's words and said, "You're right. They both needed each other." She went up to Hyson's side and bent down to pinch his cheek, "Besides, if they didn't find each other, how would I find such a cute godson?"

Hyson groaned as he rubbed his cheek, "My cheeks are not for playing."

Mu Chenyan rubbed her ear asking, "What did you say? I can't seem to hear you."

Hyson mentally rolled his eyes, "You never listen to things you're not interested in."

"Absolutely," Mu Chenyan replied. "Why should I waste my time on uninterested things?"

Yue came to tap on her shoulder, 'Just like now, you avoided talking about your dating history!'

Mu Chenyan sighed out, "I have no dating history. Just a couple of one-night stands. No big deal."

Hyson sat up to look at these ladies and chuckled, "Yanyan, you shouldn't be talking about this with mum. Her life had never been as colorful as yours. You have tried everything you wanted to. And in the end, you decided to be single because that suited you better." His eyes turned to his mother, "But mum is different. Her world revolved around one relationship that didn't even exist."

Yue Yue's eyes widened when she heard her son talk about this.

Hyson, on the other hand, stood up and stretched saying, "I'm gonna go drink some water."

Seeing how shocked Yue Yue looked, Mu Chenyan patted her head, "Darling, you don't need to look so shocked. Even if he isn't interested in your past, he isn't dense enough to not realize that you never had been in a relationship."

Yue Yue looked at Mu Chenyan, 'Why do you always take his side?'

"Because you don't," answered Mu Chenyan. "I know you love him, but you also raised him strictly and with discipline. The same discipline that your father instilled in you. And since you turn into a strict mother from a loving mother at times, I have to be on his side."

"Why do you both look so serious?" asked Hyson as he came back after drinking water.

"Your mother is wondering if she had been too strict with you," said Mu Chenyan.

"Was she?" asked Hyson to no one in particular. "I never noticed though." He took a pause and added, "Oh, but if I compare her with you, then she definitely had been a little on the strict side."

Mu Chenyan chuckled, "Do you think I could raise my family's young miss acting all strict with her? I don't think so. My family's Elle didn't need discipline, she was born with it. What she needed was someone's extra care and while caring for her, I ended up being too easygoing."

"You're only easygoing when it comes to me or Ellie," reminded Hyson. "Do you think I don't know how you act with even Xian Ge? He is particularly scared of you."

Mu Chenyan's brows furrowed up, "What did I do to him? I always act nice to him. After all, he is our family's one and only son-in-law."

Hyson laughed strangely, "Please! I'm not blind, eh! Even when you're talking nicely to him, it sounds like you're threatening him."

Mu Chenyan pursed her lips, "That can't be helped. He stole our family's Elle."

"He didn't steal her," said Hyson. "You chose him for Ellie."

Mu Chenyan rubbed her forehead, "I've been asking myself lately, why did I choose him in the first place?"

"Let me ask you as well," said Hyson. "Why did you choose him?"

"I don't know," replied Mu Chenyan. "Maybe it's because of Elder Xiang."

Hyson snorted, "Don't blame it on Opa. You'd never ever follow someone's lead. If you didn't like Xian Ge, you'd even stand against Opa for Ellie's sake. Don't think I don't know you at all."

Mu Chenyan scratched her chin, "Why do you know me so well? So unnecessarily!"

Yue Yue chuckled silently at her comment.

"There is no need to laugh at me," remarked Mu Chenyan. "I did choose Xian because I liked him. I was particularly satisfied with him but... Now, I don't like him all that much. He really stole my family's baby girl."

"Doesn't it hurt your conscience?" asked Hyson. "Calling Ellie as a 'baby girl?"

Mu Chenyan glowered at him, "She may not act like it but she'll always be our family's baby girl!" Seeing Grandfather Xiang, Mu Chenyan turned to him, "Am I wrong, Elder Xiang?"

"How can our Chenyan be wrong?" retorted Grandfather Xiang with a gentle smile on his lips.

"Are you being sarcastic with me?" Mu Chenyan narrowed her eyes at him.

"I dare not," replied Grandfather Xiang.

Hyson laughed out loud, "Even Opa is scared of you, Yanyan. Now, you can see that you're not that easygoing."

Mu Chenyan stared at Grandfather Xiang, "How can you not take your daughter's side?"

Grandfather Xiang smiled at her, "Well, I love my daughter but I have an even softer spot for my little prince."

Mu Chenyan looked at Hyson and tsked, "Aiyah! I can't even fight for favor with him. After all, he really is our family's little prince. I can't even blame Elder Xiang for taking his side."

Hyson grinned at her, "And that's what makes me very special!"

Mu Chenyan pulled his cheek making him yelp as she stated, "Special? You're our family's little ancestor!"

Hyson threw her hand away and ran behind Grandfather Xiang, "Opa! Yanyan keeps pulling my cheeks. It's all red now!"
