Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1130: Not Done With You

Mu Chenyan looked at Xia Zhao strangely once Young Master Ru disappeared. Xia Zhao could actually tell what was on her mind. He took off his coat and hung it up before rolling the sleeve of his shirt up while walking towards the kitchen.          

    

Mu Chenyan followed behind him again like a little tail.      

She looked at him washing his hands before he took out the tea set to make tea.      

"Why aren't you saying anything?" she asked.     

"What am I supposed to say?" he asked in return.     

"Shouldn't you explain something about this nephew of yours whom I just met? Why don't know about him?"     

Xia Zhao didn't even look up at her as he answered, "How much do you really think you know about me, Yanzi? Isn't it pretty normal that you don't know my nephew?"     

"How is that normal?" she asked.      

"Oh? Do you know how many people there are in my family?"      

"Yes," she answered without thinking. "There is your mom and dad apart from you in the family. You also have grandparents but they don't live with your parents and don't have any contact with them either."     

"I also have a little brother," he told her.     

Mu Chenyan tilted her head and her lips parted in disbelief. "What? How did that happen? Did your dad raise a mistress outside?"

Xia Zhao looked up and tapped her forehead, "What are you thinking about? I have a real brother. You really don't know?"     

Mu Chenyan scratched her head as she tried to recall this detail. Did she really not know or did she momentarily forget? Why did it seem like she didn't know about it? Wait! Was her memory failing her already? She wasn't even that old even if she liked to call herself old. Did her body take her words seriously?     

Seeing the expressions on her face, Xia Zhao was amused and his straight lips suddenly upturned slightly. He could literally tell what were her emotions right now.     

"I have a secret to make your memory sharp. Want it?"     

Mu Chenyan nodded her head without even thinking but suddenly realizing what she did, she glared at him, "Are you saying I'm losing memory? How dare you, Zhao?!"     

"I'm just helping you but as always, you take my kindness for evil." He pushed a cup towards her, "Have some tea and calm yourself down. Then we can talk slowly."     

Mu Chenyan took the cup and took a sip but ended up spurting it out.     

Xia Zhao ran to her side, "Are you a kid? Don't you know it's hot? Why are you in a hurry? Are you in such a hurry to kill me or yourself?" He held her face and told her, "Open your mouth. Let me see."     

Mu Chenyan obediently opened her mouth and he looked at her slightly red tongue.      

"Fortunately, it's not burned," he said in relief. "Be careful. Can you do that? How can you be so childish even now?" He shook her head making her pout in dissatisfaction. "Aren't you so good at taking care of everyone around you? Why can't you do the same for yourself?"     

"You're overreacting," said Mu Chenyan. "I was just a little careless. How can it be as serious as you say?"     

Xia Zhao didn't want to argue with her right. Especially since he knew she was never gonna listen to him. So, it was pointless to say anything. He took his cup of tea and walked towards the sofa to take a seat.      

"You can sit down and talk now," he said.     

Mu Chenyan walked over too and sat beside him. She looked at the side of his face as he took a sip of the tea slowly, "Are you mad at me?"         

    

"No."     

"You're lying."     

"I don't lie."     

"How is that possible? Remember when I told you to lie to my godmother that we were going to the race course but I took you to..."     

"I only ever lied in my life for you," he cut off her words. "Whenever I lied in my life, it involved you."     

Mu Chenyan pursed her lips, "It seems I had a very bad influence on you over the years."     

"That's true."     

"You agree?"      

"Why? Should I lie again?"     

Mu Chenyan went silent and drank the tea in the cup in silence. She looked around at the penthouse. The dominant color was black and white. How boring!     

"Is this your place?" she asked.

"Yes."     

"Why is again so monotonous? Can't you find any other color than white, black, beige, and gray?"     

"Didn't I tell you that you took colors from my life?"     

"Keep blaming me for everything," said Mu Chenyan. "I'm not done with you yet. You said I'm annoying. When did I become annoying to you?"     

"Do you really wanna waste time talking about this?" asked Xia Zhao. "I told you, we'll have a conversation tonight."     

"About what?" she asked playing dumb.     

"You think you can fool me, Yanzi?" he asked seriously.     

"I have fooled you far too many times," replied Mu Chenyan smugly. It wasn't her first time to act like this.     

"You didn't fool me. I let you believe that you successfully fooled me. There is a difference. You should understand it too."     

"Then who told you to keep pretending to be fooled? I have gotten used to it by now. And you want to change now? How can that work?"     

"So, you want me to keep acting like a fool?"     

"Yes!"     

"What kind of a fool do you want me to be?" Xia Zhao asked her. "A fool who kept falling for your tricks? Or a fool who is in love with you?"     

Mu Chenyan stiffened when she heard his words and stared into his eyes without knowing what to say in response. A fool in love with her? Did he really say that or was she hearing it wrong? She really couldn't believe that this was something he said to her. It was so unbelievable that she didn't blink for a long time.
