Master's Untamed Wife

It was needless to say that Yue Yue was over the moon to see Zhai Yanjun coming to visit her. She was actually getting a bit envious of how Mu Chenyan kept gushing over Xiang Weimin who clearly just came to visit for the very first time. It was even the first time Yue Yue saw him in person. So, when her own favorite nephew came over, she was really happy.

Seeing her enthusiasm, even Zhai Yanjun was taken aback. But he actually didn't know that Xiang Weimin was here since Yue Yue took him to the second living room and not the one where Grandfather Xiang sat with Xiang Weimin.

And then she also happily went to show off in front of Mu Chenyan who had been prancing around her for hours. If anyone knew about this petty fight between these best friends they'd want to facepalm. After all, it seemed these two really had way too much time on their hands.

"Ayi, I'm so happy to see you!" Zhai Yanjun hugged Yue Yue tightly once she sat down beside him.

Yue patted his head lovingly and then opened her text to speech software and typed, 'I'm also very happy to see you.'

Zhai Yanjun was content just simply basking in the love and care that he got from Yue Yue. And more than anything, the attention she gave him was addictive. He couldn't stop himself from coming to her again and again because she gave him what he had been craving for years; care.

'Are you eating well?' questioned Yue but pinched his face in dissatisfaction. 'Why do I think you're getting weak? Don't they serve good meals in the army?'

Zhai Yanjun gave her a helpless smile, "Ayi, meals are very good. I just haven't been eating well these days."

Yue looked at him in concern, 'Why? What happened? Why aren't you taking care of your health? Is something bothering you? Even if something is bothering you, you shouldn't ignore your health. How will you deal with whatever it is if you get sick? Health is the real wealth! And the food is indispensable!'

Zhai Yanjun didn't know whether to laugh or cry right now. Her long list of questioning really seemed annoying but he was feeling sweet inside. Hardly anyone cared about his health this much.

Thinking about something, Yue added, 'How about I send you meals from now on? It isn't a hassle. I'll pack a food box, there are so many people here. Anyone will bring it for you.'

Zhai Yanjun was taken aback by her suggestion and shook his head, "Ayi, there is no need for that. I just had something on my mind and that's why I didn't eat well. The food at the barracks isn't as bad as you think." What he didn't tell her was that from the last time he talked to Shui Xian right in this house, all he had been thinking about was Xiang Wai.

And just because of all those complicated thoughts in his mind, he didn't have the mood to eat anything. He could barely swallow a couple of mouthfuls and it was also one of the reasons he decided to run over to see Yue Yue as soon as he got the chance. Since there was no mission going on right now, it was easier for him to find time to sneak out of the barracks and come to her side.

He could see that Yue Yue was already distressed just knowing that he wasn't able to eat well these days. He didn't want to add more to her worries by explaining about his complicated love life. Or as everyone around him put it, it was never a love life, to begin with!

"Oh, Yanjun! Hi!"

Mu Chenyan waved at him from the door and looked at Yue, "You! Who said she'll help me with dinner?"

"Should I help?" questioned Zhai Yanjun.

"Can you?" Mu Chenyan eyed him with distrust.

Zhai Yanjun didn't mind her lack of trust in him, "There is no harm in learning, no?"

"Oh, since you have that kind of intention, I can't stop you," grinned Mu Chenyan. "Come on!"

Yue held his wrist and stopped him. She turned to Mu Chenyan and used her sign language to say, 'What are you doing? Don't drag him into this.'

"He's clearly the one who wants to help," Mu Chenyan pointed out, appearing very innocent.

Before Yue could add something, Zhai Yanjun spoke up, "Ayi, it's me who wants to learn. And I think you both are an excellent choice for being my teacher."

"You've come to the right person," Mu Chenyan patted his shoulder. "I'll teach you in no time and trust me, you'll be able to capture any girl with your skills." Oh, if only she knew which girl he was planning on capturing with these skills.

Zhai Yanjun gave her a sweet smile and instantly followed them to the kitchen. He put on an apron and asked, "So, what should I do?"

"Apprentices should start from the bottom," said Mu Chenyan seriously. "For now, you're the errand guy! Wash the vegetables first."

Yue glared at her, 'All the vegetables are washed once they are brought to the kitchen.'

"There is no harm in washing twice!" said Mu Chenyan. "What are you looking at? Get to work!"

Zhai Yanjun gave her a proper salute, "Yes, Sir!"

"Don't change my gender now," said Mu Chenyan.

Zhai Yanjun pursed his lips, "Okay." He couldn't just tell her that she scared him more than his commander did back when he was just a rookie in the army.

However, none of that mattered. He patiently and diligently washed the vegetables for her. No complaints at all.

*Ding-Dong!*

"Oh, who is at the door now?" asked Mu Chenyan. "Why did I have to give a holiday to all the house helpers today of all days?"

"I'll check it," said Zhai Yanjun. "That's what errand boys do. Master should just work."

Mu Chenyan gave him a appreciative look, "I like this boy.. He knows what he should do."
