Chapter 1267 Words Are Not Needed
"Brother Yue, someone is here to see you."
Hyson looked up from his phone at his assistant and frowned, "Me?"
"Yes."
"Who is it?"
"I don't know. They said they are your family."
"Family?" asked Hyson to confirm. "And you believed that? What if it's some fan trying to impersonate my family?"
The young assistant was baffled for a moment and pursed her lips before saying in a small voice, "I'm not a fool. I saw one of them with you before that's why I agreed to call you."
Hyson looked straight at her, "Are you feeling wronged?"
The young assistant shook her head, "No, it's not wrong of you to doubt. Besides, it's not like you yelled at me or anything. You just put forward your doubts and reminded me to be more vigilant in the future." n.)0vε1B1n
"I did all that? And I have no clue?" Hyson smiled at her strangely. "Don't put me on a pedestal. I already have way too many people doing that."
Hyson shook his head at her innocence and asked where this visitor was before leaving. He went to the make-up room assigned to him and was stunned to see the visitor. He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully with disbelief written on his face.
"What? Is it unbelievable that I am here to see you?" asked Mu Chenyan.
"It's shocking for sure," came Hyson's response. Then he ran to her side and gave her a bear hug excitedly. "Oh, you are real." He giggled in a silly manner making Mu Chenyan chuckle along with him. "What are you doing here? When did you come? Why did you come? And why didn't you tell me before coming? Tsk, I was just on a call with Mum, and even she didn't say a word. You guys are something."
"Okay, okay. Stop already with this barrage of questions. Give me a break. I'll answer all your questions but let's do it one at a time."
"Sorry, I got a little too excited," grinned Hyson at her happily. He held her arm and pulled her to sit on the couch. "Yanyan, it's so good to see you here."
Mu Chenyan's smile didn't drop from the moment her eyes laid on his face. She rubbed his head and asked, "Are you that happy to see me here?"
"I am."
"Why? Did you miss me that much?"
"I missed you. But also because it's the first time, you're coming to see me at work. It's different."
"Aren't you the reason why no one from home comes to see you at work? You always say to keep your personal and professional life apart."
"But my personal and professional life are already mixed up. So it doesn't matter anymore. I just don't want people to give me too much attention. But it doesn't mean I don't want to show off my beautiful godmother."
"Oh, look at this glib tongue. It gets better and better."
"You can't complain. You said I should know the art of how to sweet talk someone into ecstasy because someone has to take over your mantle. These skills made you survive under your godmother."
Mu Chenyan coughed unnaturally, "Don't say that in front of anyone else."
Hyson made the gesture of zipping his lips, "Your secrets are safe with me."
"I highly doubt that," Mu Chenyan pinched his cheek. "You can't keep secrets from Elle."
"I can," argued Hyson. "If you tell me to keep a secret, I will keep it a secret. You can even ask Ellie, I never shared over secrets with her. Just like I won't share her secrets with you."
Mu Chenyan gasped, "You both have secrets that I don't know? Should I be feeling hurt or left out?"
"You should stop being dramatic," said Hyson. "I have already inherited all your dramatic skills. There is no need to show me a live performance anymore to learn."
"I'm offended," said Mu Chenyan.
"No, you're not."
There was a knock on the door before it was opened and Hyson turned to look who was here. Seeing an even more unexpected face in front of him, Hyson was momentarily silent.
It was Mu Chenyan who spoke, "Oh, you're back. Did you find coffee for me?"
"Yeah. Here is your Iced Americano," said Xia Zhao as he moved his eyes away from Hyson. Seeing Hyson hugging Mu Chenyan's arm and resting his head on her shoulder, he acted very normal. He passed the Iced Americano to his girlfriend and then extended another box towards Hyson. "This is for you."
Hyson looked at him, "For me?"
"Yes. For you."
"What is it?" asked Hyson without any intention of taking it from him.
"Cake."
Hyson immediately snatched the box from him and opened the box to eat but was slapped on the back of his head. "Wash your hands. How old are you? Do I still have to remind you?"
"It's not like I'm gonna eat with my hands. There is a fork here," argued Hyson childishly.
"Are you still quibbling here? Do you think I'll let you go if you
quibble? Besides, isn't it better to wash your hands than wasting your time here quibbling? Use your time properly."
"Who is this? Ellie, go away! Who told you get inside my godmother's body?! Go! Go far away! Give me godmother back!"
Mu Chenyan glared at him and he dropped the act before obediently going to wash his hands.
Seeing him leaving, even Xia Zhao has a small smile on his face, "He is very energetic."
"Tell me about that," said Mu Chenyan. "It was mentally tiring to spend time with Raelle growing up but it was physically tiring to be with Fai. These two really exhausted me mentally and physically."
"He really loves you," commented Xia Zhao.
Mu Chenyan raised her brow at him, "How can you tell? You guys barely even know each other."
"Some feelings don't require words. It's very easy to see his love for you. Words are really not needed. No, they are very unnecessary." He had a very thoughtful look on his face as he spoke but Mu Chenyan chose not to delve into it at all.
