Chapter 69 - : The Idea of Perfect Prince Charming Was an Absolute Misunderstanding!
Luo Chenxi obediently followed behind the tall man as they walked to the dining room and sat down.
Mu Yichen stuck a pair of chopsticks into her hand and sternly ordered, “Eat!”
Luo Chenxi had already been famished since the start, now there was finally something for her to eat. The best part was the food was pleasantly easy on the nose.
She started gulping down the noodles straight from the pot without even using a bowl.
“Ouch… It’s hot! ”
As she got burnt from the first bite, all she did was stuck out her reddened tongue and blew a little air around it before digging in again.
Mu Yichen frowned as he watched from the side, “Take it slow, no one’s going to snatch your food away. You might get bloated if you eat so quickly.”
Luo Chenxi started paying a little more attention to her meal etiquette, but she still ate pretty quickly and finished her food in no time.
“It… It tastes so good! Young Master Mu, you really are a genius, you can even cook so well!”
Luo Chenxi rubbed her slightly bulging belly as she looked at Mu Yichen with sparkling eyes filled with admiration.
‘What a man Mu Yichen is—capable of anything and absolutely perfect!’
The corner of Mu Yichen’s lips rose ever so slightly, but his face quickly reverted to its usual cold look as he snorted, “Do you think everyone is as dumb as you?”
“You…!” Luo Chenxi nearly pounced back up from the man angering her.
‘I’m taking back what I just said—the idea I had of the perfect man is just a huge misunderstanding!
‘That foul mouth of Mu Yichen’s was enough to negate all his good points.’
However, seeing as she had eaten the noodles that he made, Luo Chenxi decided to let him off.
“Are you finished? Hurry up and get upstairs to rest if you are, it’s already one o’clock.” Mu Yichen urged.
Luo Chenxi put down the cutlery and followed him back to the master bedroom.
After entering the room, she immediately looked toward her laptop as she thought, ‘How can I possibly fall asleep without finishing the drawings?’
Mu Yichen said to her in a cold tone, “Touch that thing one more time and you are not getting any sleep tonight!”
He tightened his big hands on the woman’s waist.
A burning sensation rose from where he touched, and Luo Chenxi couldn’t help but shudder.
She dared not say anything else and hurriedly got on the bed and used the blanket to wrap herself up like a cocoon.
“You’ve still got to go to work tomorrow. Hurry up and go to sleep, good night!”
Mu Yichen’s eyes dimmed when he saw the woman’s guarded attitude, but did not say anything else.
…
The next morning, there was once again no one by Luo Chenxi’s side when she woke up.
She was surprised when she turned to the clock.
She could usually stay up for three days in a row without a wink of sleep when she got caught up in a situation with an unfinished drawing, but she actually fell asleep so quickly last night—next to such a dangerous man…
The laptop and drawing tablet that were on the floor were picked up and placed on the bedside table, but the drafts that were scattered all over the floor had vanished. She was not sure if Mu Yichen had taken them away for real.
Luo Chenxi quickly washed up and went downstairs.
The three siblings of the Mu Family and the little dumpling were all there.
Mu Yichen was having breakfast with his usual graceful etiquette. He faintly glanced at Luo Chenxi as she appeared.
Mu Yiling on the other hand, had eyes brimming with words of mockery. If it were not for his big brother’s presence, he would have lost it and started teasing her.
“Tsk, does someone think that she deserves to be pampered just because she married into the Mu Family? It’s one thing to do nothing in the house, but you’re also always the last one to arrive for breakfast everyday. Who do you think you are?” Mu Weiwei, displeased with her as usual, mocked her the moment they met.
Luo Chenxi was used to hearing these words. She was not angry at all. Instead, she continued to argue with her as usual while feeding the little dumpling.
When the little girl had finished her breakfast, Luo Chenxi lifted her up and sent her to the kindergarten.
After sending Tang Tang off, she suddenly remembered something and said to Old Liu who was seated at the driver seat, “Uncle Liu, there’s something that I need to take care of. You can drop me off at the intersection up ahead.”
Old Liu answered, “Young Madam, where are you headed? Please let me take you there. Young Master Mu has instructed me earlier this morning to escort you wherever you wish to go from now on.”
