Chapter 428 - 428: Breakfast & ‘I Can Feel It’

Gao Jixie had an exhausted expression on his face, and he seemed to not have slept much the other night. How could he, with all the troubles looming over his head?

On the other hand, Madam Li YunMu seemed to be in a truly foul mood, as she didn't seem to have slept much either, for quite different reasons actually.

While Li YunMu didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore, Gao Jixie continued to act normally. While he didn't lust after his wife anymore, it didn't mean that he could cut her off totally.

Even if it wasn't due to love, at least due to interest he had to talk to her and treat her with care and tenderness every day.

With those thoughts in his mind, he approached her like every day and asked,

"Good morning Hun, how did you sleep tonight?"

Unaware of anything, the poor sharp businessman had stepped on a landed mine, as Li YunMu looked at him with an expression full of anger, hate, and fury.

"For sure not as good as your Husband!"

Even if he unconsciously stepped on the land mine at first, Gao Jixie immediately understood that his wife wasn't in a good mood and that if he continued he would surely be the one losing out.

But he didn't know that the biggest problem wasn't his wife's foul mood, but the fact that he misunderstood her reason for being so.

With all the trouble and problems of these days, Gao Jixie thought that his wife was mad at him for still not acting against Cui Xie and his sister, unaware of the episode of the previous night.

'Sigh~!'

'Hmph~!'

Thinking like that, he could only let out a deep sigh, and continue towards the big table. On the other hand, Li YunMu coldly harrumphed and made her way towards her own seat.

None of them was the type to lower their head against the other, so none of them would do something that might be mistaken as a defeat from the other side.

Watching this happen, Eric had difficulty controlling the smile that threatened to creep on his face, as it looked like his plans were working properly.

After Master Gao Jixie started the breakfast, everyone else started after him. During the meal though, Gao Jixie called Fa'er in order to bring him something from the kitchen.

The whole thing was pretty normal, and it happened almost every day, but this time there was a difference, that made Li YunMu's morale plummet even more.

During the conversation between the two, Fa'er seemed to actually approach her Master more than necessary, and even released a light moan as they were communicating.

Normally, the Madam wouldn't pay attention to something like this, but after what happened the previous night, and a full sleepless night, she couldn't help but think about the worst.

Not only that, but she even felt that the moan she heard was extremely similar to the one of the previous night, and it was most probably this maid who had been with her husband in there.

Not knowing the identity of the woman that was inside that office room made her console herself somehow, but now that she had a suspect she couldn't help but compare herself to her.

Fa'er was actually a true beauty, with some truly dangerous curves, and the beautiful face of a mature vivacious woman.

There were few men who could actually be in the same room with her and control their lust to pin her down and have their way with her.

Hell, even Li YunMu herself was thinking that she had a killer body, and she was a woman!

That made the Madam's self-confidence plummet even more, as she felt that she had grown old and unsexy.

A weird and unpleasant feeling had suddenly appeared on her heart, and she didn't like it in the least.

As she was thinking like that, she couldn't help but raise her head in a certain direction and have a look at the young Chef that had sparked her lust the other day.

Eric, or young Chef Chen Gu to be more exact, seemed to be looking towards her too. There was a weird look on his face like he held interest towards her.

That clearly surprised the already 'defeated' Madam, as she had thought that she had lost it now, and she didn't have any womanly charms left in her.

But as if to prove her wrong, the moment that young Chef's eyes made contact with hers, he immediately turned his head to the side, as a light red hue appeared on his skin.

Madam Li YunMu couldn't believe her eyes, a million thoughts of that not being possible crept on her mind, but one opposite thought seemed to crush them all.

At that moment, her already off-put fire seemed to be rekindled once again and grow stronger with each passing moment.

Hope, desire, and excitement were once again born inside her heart, as her sight was fixed upon him, completely ignoring everyone else, including her husband.

Everyone on the table felt weird, as there was a solemn silence during the whole time, and it looked like they were in some kind of mourning, rather than enjoying breakfast.

Gao Jixie didn't dare to look in his wife's direction in fear that he might activate another land mine, and then suffer the consequences of it, so he didn't notice her strange look towards the young Chef.

He was also the one to leave the table first, as he was going to be extremely busy today once again, dealing with the police, harassment from Cui Xie's people, and the pressure from those three fogies.

His life was in a mess right now, and the worst was that he didn't even have an idea of who actually took the opportunity to harm Cui Xie.

Well, he had his doubts, but those doubts weren't being clarified lately, and his biggest suspect was certainly the person who was on his side, his partner, Master Weng Hao.

The more this damn charade continued the more damage he and his companies received. Making him feel pissed off, but unable to actually do something about it.

Madam Li YunMu didn't know much about the current situation her husband was going through, and truthfully she didn't even care.

All she knew and wanted was for him to apprehend the people who actually harmed her son and make them suffer an even worse fate.

How he did it, or what did he have to sacrifice in order to do it, was none of her concern. Even more so now that she had actually 'proved' his betrayal.

Furthermore, right now she had much more important things to think and care about, as she was following behind the young Chef Chen Gu.

She had actually caught him stealing a few looks during the meal, and every time he did so his face would change a bit, and a small tent was formed below his abdomen.

What surprised the Madam was the size of that tent. With her experienced and trained eye, she could tell that he was bigger than her husband, making her even more curious about what he had to offer.

Too bad that once the breakfast was over the young Chef disappeared from her sight. He ran away just like a thief who had been caught red-handed.

That made the Madam feel even more excited, as she felt herself just like some kind of sexy hunter chasing her young and fresh prey.

Thinking like that she couldn't help but lick her lips once and imagine a bit about the near future awaiting her.

With her expectations in the air, she turned around and made her way towards her son's room. Even though he was able to stand up and walk now, he didn't want to participate in the breakfast anymore.

He didn't like the looks of pity that other people gave him, and even less to give those losers and low lives a reason to laugh behind his back.

For that reason, he had decided to stay inside his room and never get out. When he thought that everything was over, he was suddenly given a beacon of hope.

When he had finished the food prepared for him the other day, he had weirdly felt a sensation on his nether area.

That should have been impossible as the doctor had told him that he was totally maimed, but he had pinched himself many times and the result was the same always, it wasn't a dream!

The reaction hadn't continued for long, only for 1 minute at most, but that didn't change the fact that there was a reaction, meaning that he still had hope.

For that reason, he couldn't help but desperately wait for breakfast in order to test his doubts. Today young Chef Chen Gu came personally to have a look at him after eating his food.

Not long after him, another face appeared at the door of his room and was none other than his loving and caring mother, that had stayed by his side at all times.

Madam Li was a bit surprised with the presence of young Chef Chen Gu inside, but she pretended to not mind and approached her son's bed.

What she hadn't expected was that the moment she reached there, her beloved son Gao Jian screamed in pleasure,

"I can feel it! Mother, I can feel it! Your son can feel his di…weapon again!"

It was only when he understood to whom he was talking to, that he understood that he had made a mistake, but still that didn't change his happiness.

On the other hand, Madam Li couldn't care less about the choice of words, as she just looked stupefied at her son…
