Reborn Fairy Wife Takes Me on a Gaggle-Fire rampage
Chapter 38 Is this a case of keeping a mistress in a golden house?
In a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, Mu Chen and Cheng Xiao's conversation gradually came to an end. Mu Chen glanced at his watch, realizing it was getting late, and said with a hint of apology, "I have to go back; someone's waiting for me at home." Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiao's lips curled into a playful smile, and she teased him half-jokingly, "Brother Mu, are you keeping a mistress in a golden cage?"
After hearing this, Mu Chen smiled slightly, shook his head, and answered seriously, "It's not exactly hiding her; she's the wife I'm to marry through proper channels."
Mu Chen's words revealed a firmness and respect; the "wife" he referred to clearly held an extremely important place in his heart. Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiao's playful expression gradually faded, replaced by a hint of respect. He knew Mu Chen was always a composed person and wouldn't joke easily, especially about serious topics like family and marriage.
Cheng Xiao escorted Mu Chen to the company building, and Mu Chen also said that he would seriously consider the resort.
A light drizzle began to fall. Mu Chen drove his car, speeding along the winding country roads, back to the familiar manor. Raindrops pattered against the car windows, making a soft, pattering sound, as if telling of a weary day. He parked the car, stepped through the manor gates, and a familiar scent greeted him. Mu Chen went straight to the bathroom, turned on the hot water, and let the water wash away the day's fatigue. After his shower, he changed into a soft nightgown, lay down on the bed, and gently embraced Wen Shu, feeling her warmth.
Wen Shu seemed to sense Mu Chen's presence; she crept closer to him, her soft body pressed against his. Mu Chen felt a ticklish sensation from Wen Shu's hair, the delicate fragrance making him involuntarily take a deep breath. He could hold such a beauty in his arms every day, and could only silently endure this sweet torment.
The next morning, Wen Shu got up as usual. After washing up, she put on a simple and elegant business suit and prepared to go to work. She straightened her collar in front of the mirror, making sure everything looked proper and professional. Mu Chen was still fast asleep; the exhaustion from the previous night made him sleep exceptionally soundly. Wen Shu tiptoed out of the bedroom, afraid of disturbing his sweet dreams.
Mu Chen has been extremely busy with his projects lately, devoting almost all his time and energy to them. For several days in a row, he hasn't even gone home, choosing instead to spend the night at the office. The office lights stay on all night, and his desk is piled high with documents and reports. Mu Chen sits in front of his computer, his brow furrowed, intently analyzing every piece of data and every chart. He knows that only in this way can he ensure the project's success.
It was late at night, and all the other employees had left the company, except for Mu Chen, whose office light was still on. He rubbed his tired eyes, stood up, walked to the window, and gazed at the night sky. The rain had stopped, and the stars in the night sky were faintly visible, as if telling him something. Mu Chen took a deep breath, turned back to his desk, and continued to bury himself in his work.
After working overtime for several consecutive days, he finally reappeared before Wen Shu. Although he looked slightly tired, the project was finally over. Wen Shu also made it to the weekend, filled with anticipation. Mu Chen suggested taking her to a neighboring city for a couple of days to relax. Upon hearing this suggestion, Wen Shu was so happy she almost jumped for joy. She imagined all the delicious food she could eat, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up. As she thought about it, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, a clear and melodious laugh filled with childlike innocence and happiness.
Looking at her silly smile, Mu Chen felt a warm current welling up in his heart. He felt that Wen Shu's smile was like a clear spring, able to wash away the fatigue and pressure in his heart.
Wen Shu's laughter was tinged with anticipation for the food. She had already begun to conjure up images of various delicacies in her mind: local specialties from the neighboring city, authentic seafood feasts, and those high-end restaurants she had only ever seen in magazines. She imagined herself sitting in a corner of the neighboring city, savoring all sorts of delicious food, and the sense of satisfaction she felt almost intoxicated.
On this quiet night, Wen Shu and Mu Chen finished washing up early, knowing that the next day would be a day full of anticipation. They planned to set off for the neighboring city early in the morning. Wen Shu lay in bed, her heart filled with beautiful fantasies about the future, while Mu Chen, having not had a proper rest for several days, fell into a deep sleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight filtered through the curtains and gently touched their faces, Mu Chen softly woke Wen Shu, who was still fast asleep. The two quickly ate a simple breakfast and then set off for the neighboring city. Their attire was strikingly similar, as if they had planned it beforehand as a couple. Wen Shu wore a light blue dress, the hem swaying gently in the breeze, while Mu Chen wore a dark blue casual shirt paired with light-colored jeans. Standing together, they looked remarkably harmonious.
They chose a picturesque path, the scenery along the way breathtaking. Morning dew glistened on the grass, and sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the ground. Wen Shu frequently stopped to capture these beautiful moments with her phone, while Mu Chen patiently waited beside her, occasionally offering suggestions to help her find better angles for her shots.
When they arrived in the neighboring city, it was already noon. They found a highly-rated small restaurant and prepared to enjoy an authentic local meal. The restaurant was decorated in a simple yet elegant style, with local artwork hanging on the walls, and the air was filled with the enticing aroma of food. They ordered several signature dishes and continued their conversation while enjoying their meal.
After lunch, they decided to visit the local museum to learn about the city's long history and culture. The museum displayed many precious artifacts and historical documents, and Wen Shu and Mu Chen both showed great interest in these historical relics. They carefully read each explanatory plaque and frequently exchanged their insights.
As the day drew to a close, they returned to their lodgings with a sense of accomplishment and joy. This day's journey had not only deepened their understanding of each other but also given them a more profound appreciation for this beautiful world. Wen Shu and Mu Chen both felt extremely satisfied.
After a busy day, Mu Chen and Wen Shu finally arrived at their pre-booked hotel in the evening. The hotel was located in a bustling part of the city, with a modern and elegant exterior and a warm and comfortable interior. After checking in, Mu Chen and Wen Shu decided to enjoy a delicious dinner at a nearby restaurant.
In a uniquely styled restaurant, the two found a window seat. Outside, the bustling street was illuminated by flashing neon lights as night gradually fell. They ordered several local specialties and a bottle of red wine, enjoying the food and conversation, savoring this rare moment of tranquility. Mu Chen told Wen Shu that he planned to take her to the amusement park the next day for a day full of laughter and excitement.
