“If you’re going to say it’s because of the South River project, then I’ll get someone else to be in charge. In this period, you’ll just be in charge of getting healed in Maple Residence. I’m approving your leave for the next month.”

Mu Yuchen frowned slightly and took the porridge from Ah Mo.

“I’m really fine. It’s no problem for me to be discharged immediately. I proposed the South River project. I want to finish what I started and do it well. It’s just a small injury anyway. You’ve been busy for the entire day too. Go home and rest earlier. I’ll be fine alone.”

When she found out that it was already late at night from the dark sky outside, Xi Xiaye naturally was not willing to delay him any further, especially because there was still a very important meeting tomorrow morning. As the newly appointed Chairman, he would, of course, be busy with official business.

When he heard this, Mu Yuchen’s handsome brows furrowed further. Before he could respond, Xi Xiaye had already reached over to take the porridge. “I’m fine alone. You go home and rest. Tomorrow morning’s meeting is going to be quite intense...”

Before Xi Xiaye could finish, she heard Mu Yuchen’s plain and helpless voice. “Xiaye, you seem to have forgotten the meaning of the document you signed earlier. If you still don’t understand the meaning of marriage, I don’t mind explaining it to you. Marriage is a responsibility and duty built between the two of us together. You are now my wife. Taking care of you is a responsibility and a duty that I can’t avoid. Can’t you be more self-aware? Can’t you demand just a little from me?”

Xi Xiaye, who was enduring her pain while holding the bowl, was startled to hear his stern reprimand. She then looked up at him. Seeing the vaguely afflicted gloominess in his eyes, she suddenly could not help but feel her heart soften.

Quite a while after that, she quietly lowered her gaze. Staying silent for a moment, she suddenly raised a hand and said very justly in her raspy voice, “Then, Mr. Mu, I have a demand! I demand that you don’t tear me away from my South River project. I’d like to demand being discharged from the hospital tomorrow!”

Once Xi Xiaye did this and indignantly said those justified words, Ah Mo, who was still shocked by Mu Yuchen’s words earlier, suddenly could not help but laugh out loud. Immediately, he was greeted by his Master’s dark cold gaze. Then, he cleared his throat and said, “Master, I’ll go ask the doctor about the Missus’ situation!”

It turned out that his old friend from the civil affairs bureau had come earlier to help the Master and Director Xi settle their marriage certificate. It was no wonder they were so secretive. When he had first heard about the union, he had wondered which divinity was the Missus that could make Master Mu willing to bind her by marriage. At first, he thought it was random, but now he understood!

Ah Mo ran off like a bunny, not daring to disturb the Master and Director Xi. Oh, no wait. Now, she should be called the Missus. He could not disturb their joyful occasion.

Previously, he had really thought that the Master would not commit to a marriage for any woman, but who would have thought...

It looks like Director Xi was indeed extraordinary. At least, to the Master, she was very special...

“You keep climbing up this ladder, Xi Xiaye. How capable are you!?”

Mu Yuchen could not help but feel helpless. He did not expect this woman to react so quickly, using his words to trap him. Shooting her a side look, he then took over the bowl that she was struggling with and handed her the spoon.

Xi Xiaye did not care about being courteous anymore. Since he had already seen her at her worst, she did not mind and took it, scooping out a heap of porridge and blowing air over it before carefully eating it. She said matter-of-factly, “It was you who said I didn’t have any demands. Now that I’ve made a demand, you don’t seem very willing.”

“What a clever mouth!” Mu Yuchen softly scolded, then he slowly brought the bowl to her lips. He thought about it before saying softly, “If your demand is as such, I will grant it to you. Tomorrow morning, you’ll be discharged, but you must go straight home with me to Maple Residence. As for your stuff in the apartment, I’ll get Ah Mo to pack it and bring it over. Stay at home for a week, then I’ll consider letting you continue to be in charge of the South River project.”

Since Maple Residence already had a family doctor, Uncle Zhong, he would just have to trouble him to make a few trips.

Maple Residence was where he stayed...

It was in the Grand Waves Villa area, the place where she had stayed the night after getting drunk.

From now on, would she be living with this man?

Such endless decades ahead...

Xi Xiaye suddenly felt a little uneasy and she could not help but frown slightly. Mixed emotions stirred in her twinkling eyes as she looked at Mu Yuchen. Her mind suddenly flashed to the scene when she had signed the marriage contract...

Right, they were already married. From the moment she signed the contract, there was already no turning back. It was not all bad to just be reckless and unruly for once.

No matter what the outcome was, whether it would turn out to be a tragedy or comedy, she would calmly accept it. Marriage was a grand gamble of life and she, Xi Xiaye, had put her bet down!

As she thought this, she nodded slightly. “Okay, I’ll also do as you wish.”

...

Early in the morning, the runner from the civil affairs bureau had indeed delivered the marriage certificate. Xi Xiaye held the little red book in her hand and casually flipped it open. She could not help but feel that the two people in the picture were clearly not in harmony. Mu Yuchen was obviously honorable and handsome as always, while she was disheveled, pale, and looked a little wan and sallow...

Quite a while later, she slowly closed the red book in her hand and inhaled. Gazing up towards the golden rays that poured in at an angle from the window, her beautiful face suddenly broke into a faint smile...

“What happy thoughts have you been thinking about? Tell me about it. I want to be cheered up too.”

The red book was suddenly pulled out of her hands as a low and melodious voice slowly brushed past her ears.

She retrieved her gaze and noticed the man had appeared by her bedside with the red book in his hands. He casually flipped it open to look at its contents before he handed it to Ah Mo beside him.
