Master's Untamed Wife

Feeling bored while driving, Mu Chenyan turned on the music. Hearing the loud heavy metal music blaring out of the speakers, Yue Yue was startled awake from her trance. She was just enjoying the view outside the window but Mu Chenyan's choice of music scared her.

She glared at her before turning it off.

"I'm feeling bored!" told Mu Chenyan. "I can't even talk to you while I'm driving."

Yue Yue frowned at her before selecting something else to play. As the soothing sound of the violin filled the silence. Mu Chenyan gave Yue Yue a glance from the corner of her eyes. As she stopped the car at a red light, she turned to her and said, "Yue, do you want me to sleep? I'm driving! I can't listen to this."

'Your kind of music hurts my ears!' responded Yue.

"And your kind of music makes me yawn!" shot back Mu Chenyan. "I'm not artistic like you. I really can't appreciate the beauty of such a marvelous piece. Just play something else."

Yue Yue already knew Mu Chenyan really wasn't the type of person who could appreciate classical music. She could only lament inwardly and decided, 'Let's just play the radio.'

Mu Chenyan stepped on the accelerator and nodded, "That'd be better."

When Yue turned on the radio, a song played out.

??I know that you're wrong for me

Gonna wish we never met on the day I leave

I brought you down to your knees

'Cause they say that misery loves company

It's not your fault I ruin everything (everything)

And it's not your fault I can't be what you need

Baby, angels like you can't fly down hell with me, oh!

Angels like you can't fly down hell with me ?? (Song: Angels Like You, Singer: Miley Cyrus)

They only managed to listen to the last part of the song but Mu Chenyan liked it a lot. When she glanced over at Yue Yue, she found that the latter was busy appreciating this beautiful city.

And indeed, Yue Yue did find Nanzhou to be a beautiful place. She wasn't taking Mu Chenyan seriously before but she had to say, this city was painted in vibrant colors making anyone feel relaxed and jubilant.

"Yue, after hearing that song, I feel like I'm playing the role of the devil who is trying to make an angel-like your fly down to hell with me."

Yue Yue could hear that she was half-joking but the other half was she being serious about it. For some reason, Mu Chenyan really thought of her as an angel. She didn't even know why was that.

Since Yue Yue couldn't distract her, she opened the phone assistant and typed her reply, "But if the devil is like you, even angels like me would end up selling their souls."

Mu Chenyan's grip on the steering wheel tightened while Yue Yue smiled at her reaction. Although Mu Chenyan never believed herself to be a good person, Yue Yue knew she was one. Anyone could see it from the way she devoted herself to raise Raelle. She even forgot her own self for Raelle. Compared to her, Yue Yue never thought of herself to be a better person.

After passing through checkpoints, Mu Chenyan's wrangler finally made its way into the parking lot of the Army General Hospital. Yue Yue had her brows raised from the moment they had first stopped at the first checkpoint. But Mu Chenyan had been pretending like she couldn't see the question marks above her head.

Mu Chenyan unfastened her seatbelt and her hand was held by Yue Yue, 'What are you doing here?'

"Umm... Someone I know is here, I came to just make a visit," answered Mu Chenyan. She alighted and opened the door of the back seat and pulled out a fruit basket and only now did Yue Yue saw that fruit basket. However, since Mu Chenyan didn't stop in the way to get this, it meant someone had already placed it in the car even before they drove here.

"Do you want to come with me?"

Yue Yue shook her head vigorously, 'I don't like hospitals. I'll just wait for you here.'

"Ok!"

Yue Yue watched Mu Chenyan walking towards the entrance of the hospital and leaned her head back before closing her door. She really hated hospitals. The last time she was at a hospital was when she was told she would never be able to speak again. Since then, she had been associating hospitals with her worst memories. She couldn't stop it.

Feeling a little suffocated, she got down the vehicle and took a deep breath in the fresh air. As her eyes wandered around, she was surprised to see such a beautiful garden in a military hospital. She went behind the vehicle and leaned against it as she enjoyed the view. Finding it too mesmerizing, she pulled out her phone to click a photo.

"Your son is doing better than I thought."

Yue Yue's whole body stiffened when she heard that voice.

"But it will still take him months before he recovers completely."

Another voice answered the previous one. But this time, Yue Yue could hear the voices closer to her. And she knew the two people talking were just on the other side of the car. She didn't dare to move, she squatted down to even hide.

"But the doctor said he'll make a full recovery. Isn't that a miracle you should be glad for?"

The other person took a moment before replying, "When did I say, I'm not happy? I'm just distressed because I know my son. He won't be willing to spend months in a hospital just to achieve full recovery."

"Well, that's true," agreed the other man. "Weimin does love to work excessively. I mean he was supposed to be on a vacation and still took the mission as soon as he got the chance."

"That's why I'm worried about him, Kuijun."

"Well, you're the General, Hulin. Why don't you just use your authority to make sure he isn't able to run around?"

Yue Yue was certain that the first voice belonged to Zhai Kuijun. And after hearing the name from the other man, there was no doubt left in Yue Yue's mind. He was indeed Zhai Kuijun. As for the other one. She didn't know him.

There was a long silence after that. So long that one would think that they left, but Yue Yue didn't hear their footsteps, so she didn't let her guard down. Instead, she looked under the wrangler, and seeing their feet, she again stayed right where she was.

"I heard your father-in-law is retiring from his position? Is it true? Is he really leaving the politics?"

Zhai Kuijun sighed out, "I also heard the same. So, it must not be just a rumor." He took a pause and added, "The Yue family had been in politics for too long. But after my father-in-law's career ends, no one knows what will happen."

"It seems you don't even know that your wife is trying to take her father's place in the office."

Zhai Kuijun was left stunned but he got over it soon enough, "Well then the Yue Family's political future looks bleak."

Yue Yue was also taken aback by the amount of information she just received. It seemed her father was retiring that meant, she won't be able to see him on news any longer. That was her only way to see her father but now, it won't be possible. But before she could feel sad about this news, she learned that her elder sister was joining politics. That didn't sound like something her sister would do.

"Kuijun, when was the last time you met your wife?"

"Last year at my father-in-law's birthday party," replied Zhai Kuijun. "Oh, it'll be his birthday party in a month. It seems I'll have to see her again."

"What's with that displeased look on your face?"

"I can't be like you, General Xiang Hulin. You are able to smile and go on dinners with your ex-wife, I can't even stand my wife now."

The phone in Yue Yue's hands dropped down when she heard that sentence. Both Zhai Kuijun and Xiang Hulin heard the noise and raised their brows.

"Is someone here?"

They both had the same question. Yue Yue picked up her phone and hurriedly crawled away to the side of another car in the parking lot.

And as soon as she left, both the men checked behind the car but couldn't find anyone.

"That's strange I thought I heard some noise," said Zhai Kuijun.

While Zhai Kuijun was focused on this issue, something else has caught Xiang Hulin's attention. He was staring at the jeep wrangler with a furrowed brows.

Seeing how Xiang Hulin looking around the parking lot, Zhai Kuijun questioned, "Who are you looking for?"

"That's my sister's wrangler," he answered.

"Your sister?" asked Zhai Kuijun. "You mean, Mu Chenyan?"

Xiang Hulin nodded his head, "Yeah! Chen Chen is here."
