COLD CEO AND ARROGANT WIFE, VOLUME 5 - Season 10 Episode 18

On the other hand, right after hanging up on Raelle, Hyson rushed to get dressed up and ran out. He went straight to the garage and looked at the cars before his eyes locked on a red sportscar. He ran back inside the house and asked, “Yanyan, can I borrow your sportscar?”

Mu Chenyan was really busy these days because of the company she started. This was the reason she avoided being a boss. It was too much work. Wasn’t it better to be just a lazy shareholder who cashed money only without putting in any effort? But look where love got her. For the love of her best friend, she actually jumped into this pit herself.

Tsk.

It was even more tiring than she thought it’d be.

Hearing Hyson’s question, she lazily looked up, “Why are you even asking? Little Fai, you’re not a kid anymore. You really don’t have to ask for permission to do everything. You can make your own decisions.” She went back to looking at the screen of her laptop before saying, “Just take the key.”

“Okay, thank you!” said Hyson and turned to leave.

“Wait!”

“Hm? What happened?” he asked.

Mu Chenyan looked up at him and squinted her eyes, “You’re driving?”

“Yes,” replied Hyson. “You just said I’m not a kid. Don’t tell me I can’t drive.”

“No, that’s not it. It’s just that you usually don’t like driving,” Mu Chenyan pointed out seriously. And that’s why it sounded surprising to her as well. “Where are you going?”

“To see Ellie.”

“You’re going to the hospital?”

“Wow! Yanyan’s information is slow for once,” commented Hyson dramatically. Then he happily informed her, “She got discharged today and she went to the temple with Xian Ge.”

Mu Chenyan was left staring at him in silence. Oh, she wasn’t surprised that her information was really slow. It was because Raelle actually went to a temple. Was day was it? Where did the sun rise from? Why were both Raelle and Hyson giving her surprises? Hyson who didn’t drive wanted to drive and Raelle who never had an interest in places like temples actually visited one.

Why wasn’t she able to keep up with these two kids?

But then again, she really never had been able to keep up with them. How could anyone keep up with them? Their thoughts jumped around and she was already getting old now. It was hard to keep up with their pace. Maybe she should just accept it now.

Hyson waved his hand before her eyes to get back her attention, “Earth to Yanyan!”

Mu Chenyan snapped out of her thoughts and looked at him, “Yeah. What? What happened?”

“I should be asking you that,” said Hyson. “Was my information so shocking?”

Mu Chenyan waved her hand off, “It’s nothing like that. My thoughts just wandered off and I realized that both my kids have grown up now. I’m old.”

Hyson laughed at her and hugged her neck from behind the sofa where he stood, “It’s okay. Even if you’re old, we still love you.”

Mu Chenyan smiled helplessly and patted his head that was squeezed beside hers. Kissing his head, she said, “You really know how to coax an old lady like me now.”

“By comparing yourself to old ladies, you’re really overestimating the old ladies,” said Hyson. He lowered his voice and added mysteriously, “You’re still young. Have you looked at my mother? She gets tired after walking a few steps. Those are the signs of being an old lady.”

“She is pretty young,” Mu Chenyan habitually defended her best friend.

“Tsk. But she is old at heart,” insisted Hyson. “Heart is the essence of the body. If you’re young at heart, your body will keep functioning accordingly.”

She ruffled his hair and said, “Okay. I get it. Now, go already. If you wasted your time here, you’d be late.”

“Alright. I’m leaving. Love You!” he kissed her cheek and ran off.

Mu Chenyan laughed and shook her head at his antics. But once she looked back at her laptop, her smile vanished and a dark cloud appeared above her head.

While in rush, Hyson ended up running into his mother. Seeing him running, she held the back of his collar and pulled him back. He was really still the chick that this mother hen could easily move around. But only because he allowed her to do so.

Standing before her, he sighed, “Yes, mum!”

‘Where are you going?’

“I’m going out,” replied Hyson.

Yue Yue narrowed her eyes at him, ‘Where?’

Hyson hesitated before he answered, “To the temple.”

Yue Yue’s face lit up and she smiled at him as if she was looking at him proudly. ‘My good son! You finally are sensible. Go, go. Ask for some blessings.’

Hyson knew she’d react this way. “You’ve been heavily influenced,” he remarked. He wasn’t lying. He knew his mother was mostly influenced by the small village people where they used to live when he was born. People in such places believed even more in gods, ghosts, and anything supernatural. His dear mum was also influenced by them.

Yue Yue understood his meaning but she didn’t say anything regarding that. She was already happy enough that her son was taking the initiative to go and make some merits. She couldn’t ask for much. After all, usually, she had to drag him with her, and even then he’d make an ugly face all the way.

She caressed his head lovingly and added, ‘It’s already quite late. Will you be able to come back at night?’

Hyson looked at the time and said, “I’m not sure. If Ellie and Xian Ge came back, I’ll follow them. If they don’t, I’ll just stay where they will stay.”

Yue Yue agreed with him, ‘Then you follow them. Don’t wander around all alone. It’s dangerous.’

Hyson gave his mother a look, “Just now my father said, I’m not a kid anymore!”

“Who is your father?”

“Yanyan!”

Hyson subconsciously answered without even realizing who was asking that question.
