Chapter 920: Rude

Chapter 920: RudeJust as Hyson left, before the silence could settle in, a figure strutted over with a languid pace. It was none other than Mu Chenyan who was just called by Hyson. She yawned and asked, "I heard someone say, my wife, is crying."        

Yue Yue shot Mu Chenyan a disgruntled look.      

"Don't shoot daggers at me," stated Mu Chenyan. "Who asked you to cry? If you hadn't, little Fai won't call out to me. "Why are you crying again? Are tears that cheap?" She held up her hand to cover her mouth as she yawned once again. Her eyes fell on Zhai Kuijun and the same question appeared again, "What are you doing here?"    

Zhai Kuijun's lips spasmed when he heard that question yet again. First, it came from Hyson and now from Mu Chenyan. Now, that he recalled, Hyson called Mu Chenyan his father. So, was he supposed to say 'Like father, like son'?    

Although the thought was absurd, he truly thought there was nothing wrong with his logic here. Who asked Mu Chenyan and Hyson to act the same way? Even he was thrown into confusion wondering if they were really father and son. When this thought appeared in his mind, he felt like beating himself. How could he even think like this?    

Yue Yue stepped up to pinch Mu Chenyan, 'Should I tell Elder Xiang how you're questioning a guest?'    

Mu Chenyan stepped back, "I mean. What are you doing here? You should come inside and sit down. Give us the opportunity to be good hosts."    

The way she changed her tune was amusing and shocking at the same time. But honestly speaking, Zhai Kuijun didn't mind her attitude at all. Neither hers nor Hysons. He could actually understand them better. He wasn't blind. He could tell both had opinions but only because his presence somehow made Yue Yue uncomfortable. And both Hyson and Mu Chenyan seemed very protective of Yue Yue which was very good news to him.      

It truly settled down his worries.    

One would say a mother protects her child but from what he saw, it seemed Hyson was the one protecting his mother instead. In fact, if he asked, even Yue Yue would agree. Why else would she feel so sorry for her son? That silly child didn't know how to complain but always knew how to stand before her as her shield. Protecting from everything.    

She already felt gratified knowing that her son never thought she wasn't good enough. He was proud of her and that was one of the biggest reasons she was able to break out of the shell she had built around herself. And it was also the reason she didn't feel anything facing her parents.    

Mu Chenyan didn't just say that, she really guided Zhai Kuijun inside the living room with Yue Yue slowly following behind them. Mu Chenyan asked someone to serve him drinks and snacks while she also sat back in her place.      

"I believe you're here for Yue?" It sounded more like a statement than a question coming from Mu Chenyan. She didn't think there was any other reason for Zhai Kuijun to come here. After all, her Ge wasn't around either. So, why else would this man come around? To face her ugly stares? She didn't think Zhai Kuijun had a heart big enough to be able to bear her ugly stares.    

She was going very easy on this man for Yue Yue's sake. Otherwise, she didn't even care that he was Hyson's father. What father? He was at most a sperm donor at this point. Why should she care about this connection between them? It'd only ruin her mood just thinking about how this sperm donation conspired.    

"Why? I can't come to see you?" asked Zhai Kuijun.    

"I don't think we have such a good relationship," replied Mu Chenyan. "You and I have nothing to do with each other."    

"You're at least polite to me before," mentioned Zhai Kuijun. "Why is it that from the moment I got involved with Yue, your attitude towards me changed?"    

"I'm still very polite," said Mu Chenyan.    

'Stop it!'    

Mu Chenyan looked at Yue Yue and sighed heavily before nodding, "As you wish your highness!"    

The house help orderly served some fruits, pastries, and tea. Mu Chenyan picked up a pastry and nibbled on it like a small animal. She definitely didn't look as aggressive as she normally did. She actually looked quite soft and kinda adorable.    

Zhai Kuijun was shocked by his own thoughts. He picked up the tea and sipped on it to calm himself. He must have hurt his head for real or else why would he actually think that Mu Chenyan looked adorable? Does that word even suit Mu Chenyan? He never thought it did.    

Looking at how silently Zhai Kuijun was drinking tea while Yue Yue kept her hands in her lap and sat straight with an elegant posture, Mu Chenyan felt strange. What the hell! Why was it so silent around here?      

"You both are waiting for me to leave, are you?" asked Mu Chenyan.    

Zhai Kuijun shook his head, "No, no. How can I dare ask you to leave?"    

"So, you don't need space, right? Then I'll just sit here even if that's considered rude," was Mu Chenyan's response. She really didn't feel like leaving this man alone with Yue Yue right now. But the main reason was, that she was here first. She had all of her documents here and she was too lazy to move.          

So, Mu Chenyan picked up her laptop and went back to her work completely ignoring the two around her but not before saying, "You can pretend like I'm invisible. And if you really need space, you can go to the other living room."    

Zhai Kuijun didn't think anyone could actually ignore Mu Chenyan's presence in a room. Just think she was invisible? That was kind of impossible! But it's not like he had anything secret to talk to Yue Yue so he didn't mind Mu Chenyan's presence.
