MY LOVING MARRIAGE - Season 20 Episode 56

In the evening, Xi Xiaye came back quite early. Her grandpa said that he missed the children, so today, Mu Zirui and Wei’er went straight to the Shen residence.

When Xi Xiaye drove into Maple Residence, the sky had already darkened. The entire residence was brightly lit.

She got out of the car and walked into the residence in the cold rain. Just as she entered the door, she saw Mu Tangchuan and Zhuang Shurong sitting in the living room. Mu Xiaocheng was sitting quietly on the sofa between the two of them, watching cartoons.

The little guy could not understand what was being said on the television at all. However, seeing the little guy’s expression, he was really focused. Compared to when his father was serious, he looked really serious and did not make any noise at all.

Meanwhile, Mu Tangchuan and Zhuang Shurong were chatting about something.

Mu Yuchen was nowhere to be seen. Could he still be upstairs?

When they went to pick him up, they knew that they were not feeling too well. They were a little worried, so they asked Zhuang Shurong to come over to take a look. They did not know if they were feeling better now.

“Father, Mother!”

Xi Xiaye changed her shoes and then called out.

“Xiaye, you’re back?”

Zhuang Shurong and Mu Tangchuan looked over at the same time and smiled.

Xi Xiaye nodded happily and walked over to them. Meanwhile, Mu Xiaocheng, who was focused on watching television, turned around. When he saw his mother, his starry eyes instantly lit up, his cute little face instantly gave a smile as he said, “Xiaye, you’re back…”

When they heard this, Mu Tangchuan and Zhuang Shurong paused and quickly hugged Mu Xiaocheng. “Hey, my precious, you cannot be the one saying Xiaye, you have to call Mommy, understand?”

“You can’t call by the first name, you have to call her Mommy. Look at him, the moment he sees you, he’s not stingy with his smile. He was just sulking at me just now.”

Zhuang Shurong looked at Mu Xiaocheng helplessly.

Mu Xiaocheng had already slid down the sofa. He walked over to Xi Xiaye with his little arms and legs as he reached out. “Mother…”

Xi Xiaye had no choice but to put down the things in her hands. She reached out to pick him up and kissed his little face affectionately. “Did you listen to Grandmother and be good?”

“Yes…”

Mu Xiaocheng quickly answered. As he answered, he reached out to touch Xi Xiaye’s face.

“I can tell just by looking at you, you were naughty. Where’s Daddy?”

Xi Xiaye raised her hand to pat his little head.

“Daddy’s sleeping.”

The little guy pointed upstairs as he spoke.

“Father, Mother, please take him first then. I’ll go make dinner,” said Xi Xiaye.

“Don’t busy yourself now. Your mother has already made soup and was waiting for you to come back. It should be almost done, just need to cook a few more dishes. Ah Chen is still upstairs. He’s slept for the whole afternoon. You should go up and take a look. Come, Xiao Cheng, come with Grandfather.”

It was Mu Tangchuan who spoke.

“Yeah, I’ve already prepared the dishes. The fish has been steamed too. I’ll just cook a few more side dishes. I’ll go and cook now. Go up and see Ah Chen. I saw that he was sleeping soundly, so I didn’t disturb him. It’s easy to catch a cold when the days are chilly, you guys have to be careful.”

Zhuang Shurong then went into the kitchen.

Mu Tangchuan hugged Mu Xiaocheng too. At this moment, Xi Xiaye went upstairs.

The bedroom was pitch-black. Even the wall lamp by the window was not turned on. The flickering light was from the street lamps that were refracted from outside.

Xi Xiaye reached out to turn on the light by the door. The room instantly lit up. She subconsciously looked at the bed and saw that the person on the bed had already curled up. Xi Xiaye quickly walked over.

Sure enough, she saw that a certain someone’s handsome face was covered in a layer of sweat. His face was slightly red and his forehead was covered in sweat. His brows were tightly knitted together. It was obvious that he was not sleeping well either.

However, when Xi Xiaye walked closer, he woke up too.

“How are you?”

Xi Xiaye was a little worried as she prepared a warm wet towel for him and handed it to him.

“You’re back.”

Mu Yuchen’s deep voice was already a little hoarse as he took the towel and wiped his face. Then, he lifted the blanket and got out of bed. Only then did he realize that his robe was already drenched in sweat.

“Mmm, I just came back. Father and Mother are still preparing dinner downstairs. How do you feel? Your clothes are all wet. Go and change first.”

As Xi Xiaye said this, she also found a clean set of home clothes for him from the wardrobe.

“I’m fine. I’m much better now.”

Mu Yuchen took the clothes from her and his large hand patted her head as well. He lowered his head and lightly touched her lips. Then, he took the clothes and walked into the bathroom while Xi Xiaye busied herself changing out of the sheets and blankets.

When the couple went downstairs, dinner was already prepared.

The few of them sat around the table while Mu Xiaocheng sat on his custom-made chair. Zhuang Shurong was feeding him. When the little guy saw Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye, he immediately took the spoon from Zhuang Shurong, he started eating, but because his movements were not very steady, the food spilled onto a napkin and rice grains were all over his face.

Xi Xiaye did not know whether to laugh or cry as she watched. Mu Yuchen patiently taught him how to steady his movements and how to distinguish between the various types of food in the bowl, what they were called, and what they were used for.

Mu Yuchen was very dignified in Mu Xiaocheng’s eyes. The father and son pair also played very well. Every time she watched the father and son interact, it seemed to be a great enjoyment for Xi Xiaye.

Not long after dinner, Zhuang Shurong and Mu Tangchuan went back. Of course, Mu Xiaocheng also went back with them.

When they were done with their work, it was already past ten in the evening.

When Xi Xiaye came out of the bathroom in a bathrobe, Mu Yuchen was sitting on the sofa beside the French window, talking on the phone. He was probably calling Li Si. Xi Xiaye could only vaguely hear the words ‘Myanmar’, she did not take it to heart. It must be a business matter.

“You’ve slept for so long during the day. You shouldn’t be sleepy now, right?”

Mu Yuchen had just put his phone away when a faint fragrance wafted over. Her voice suddenly came over. Mu Yuchen turned his head and realized that she was holding a tray with two cups of hot milk in it.

“Drink some. I’ll chat with you.”

Seeing that he did not move, Xi Xiaye simply put the milk on the table beside him. She also took a cup and sat down opposite him.

“What are you thinking about? I’ve said quite a few, but why haven’t you answered me?”

Xi Xiaye looked at him in surprise.

Then, Mu Yuchen leaned back on the sofa and took a sip of the milk. “Do I look like I have something on my mind? What did Mother say to you just now? She’s so mysterious. Did she make up something bad about me?”
