Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 829 [Bonus chapter] Disoriented

　　Su Feifei frowned. She could tell that Mu Chenyan was serious but it left her momentarily lost. She didn't understand how to react at that moment.

　　Fortunately, the door opened and the dishes were served to give some more time to Su Feifei to process Mu Chenyan's words.

　　Once the servers left, the first thing Su Feifei did was pour herself some Baijiu and gulped it down. It tingled her senses and she felt like she could think again.

　　"What are you trying to say?" asked Su Feifei.

　　Mu Chenyan had been paying attention to Su Feifei all this while. She looked into her eyes and explained, "I mean do you wanna go out on a blind date with my Ge?"

　　Su Feifei almost fell from the chair when she heard Mu Chenyan's straightforward words. She had to pour some more Baijiu and gulp it down once again. One glass turned into two and then it moved to three. Before she could pour it again, Mu Chenyan placed her hand on her glass to cover it.

　　"Jie, drinking won't help you."

　　Su Feifei put down the bottle of Baijiu and slumped back, "You're right. This isn't helping." She took a deep breath and asked, "When you say your Ge, you're talking about General Xiang Hulin?"

　　"I only have one Ge," answered Mu Chenyan.

　　Su Feifei looked up at her, "Have you lost your mind?"

　　"I have not," replied Mu Chenyan. "Didn't you once say to me that you'd ask my brother out if he wasn't already dating Song Xin'ai?"

　　Su Feifei laughed at that, "That was a joke."

　　"It was not," said Mu Chenyan with certainty.

　　"It was," insisted Su Feifei. "I wasn't alone. There were others who said the same too. After all, your brother was pretty famous."

　　"I'm talking about you, not about others," said Mu Chenyan. "I don't see why you're reacting like this. You never wanted to have kids. Isn't it good enough that my brother already has three kids who are old enough to build their own families?"

　　"Exactly! His kids are already old now. One of them is even married," reminded Su Feifei. "How can you think about matchmaking him at this point?"

　　"Because I don't want him to be lonely anymore," answered Mu Chenyan. "I want someone to be there for him and with him. He had been divorced for decades. He is single, you're single. I don't see a problem with this arrangement. Guess what, you'll also get the best sister-in-law like me as an added bonus."

　　"Shut up!" said Su Feifei. 

　　"Jie..."

　　"Stop it!"

　　"Think about it," said Mu Chenyan.

　　"Eat!" 

　　"Why don't you tell me what's on your mind first?"

　　"I said, eat!" Su Feifei put some fish into Mu Chenyan's bowl with her chopsticks and added, "Let's stop here for now."

　　"Oh..." Although Mu Chenyan felt it was a shame, she still shut up and concentrated on eating.

　　Su Feifei silently ate before she thought of something and said, "I almost forgot about it." She put down her chopsticks and picked up her phone. Unlocking the phone, she opened the photo gallery and clicked on a picture before sliding her phone towards Mu Chenyan, "That's you, right?"

　　Mu Chenyan's brows furrowed up and she looked at her phone which left her stunned for a moment. The picture was of a painting. Although only the side of her face was seen, anyone who personally knew Mu Chenyan when she was a teenager would be able to recognize her instantly. Especially since the painter had painted a very single feature of hers so vividly that she appeared to be alive in that painting. In that very moment.

　　"So?" asked Su Feifei.

　　Mu Chenyan looked up at her, "Jie, where is this from?"

　　"First, you tell me, that is you?"

　　"You already can tell that," answered Mu Chenyan. "You have known me from childhood. And I believe I am fourteen in that painting. Where did you see it? Who painted it? Why am I there?"

　　"I think you have a secret admirer," said Su Feifei.

　　"I have a lot of secret admirers," was Mu Chenyan's reply.

　　"Narcissist!" 

　　"No, I'm just stating facts," replied Mu Chenyan. "Even if I wasn't a delicate and weak little beauty. I had my charms. I definitely had a lot of secret admirers. Or else, I won't get so many love letters in school."

　　"Half of those came from girls," reminded Su Feifei. "After all, you fit perfectly into a girls' fantasy of a knight." She definitely didn't fit into a guy's fantasy where they'd be the hero protecting the damsel.

　　Mu Chenyan cleared her throat and said, "Still, secret admirers are secret admirers. Whether girls or guys. What does it matter? The point is I had many secret admirers."

　　"I saw it at an exhibition," answered Su Feifei. "I won't give you any more details. I'll just send you the location of the gallery and the pass. You go and check it out yourself. Do let me know which secret admirer it is."

　　"Isn't your own life exciting enough? Why are you looking for thrill through my life?"

　　"I can't help it," Su Feifei shrugged her shoulders.

　　Both of them went silent with each having their own thoughts. Mu Chenyan's proposal of matchmaking actually made Su Feifei's thoughts a bit disoriented. It wasn't the first time that someone had put forth such a suggestion. She also had plenty of people who wanted her to leave her singlehood but this time it was different. 

　　After all, Xiang Hulin could be considered her teenage crush. She never thought in her middle age, that she'd hear someone say she could go on a date with him.

　　As for Mu Chenyan, usually, she wouldn't pay attention to such things. But this painting seemed to be reminding her of something. She just couldn't pinpoint what exactly was it? It was all blurred up in her mind. And that's why she was genuinely curious about finding out the person behind this painting.
