Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Back home, Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin hanging onto him and felt it was unlikely for him to cook for her. She seemed to need him for something else.

He took out his phone and dialed a number, instructing the person on the other end to deliver some food.

After hanging up, Mu Chengxi carried Wen Xin straight into the bathroom. Leaning close to her ear, he gently asked, “Shall I bathe you?”

“Mmm.” Wen Xin sat on the toilet lazily, extending her arm towards Mu Chengxi. She wasn’t worried anymore that he might have any improper intentions towards her. She really didn’t have the strength to bathe herself.

After the shower, with flushed cheeks, Wen Xin lay panting on the bed. She regretted it. If she had known Mu Chengxi would do such things in the bathroom, she wouldn’t have needed his help, even if she lacked the strength. It was just too much.

Mu Chengxi pulled up the blanket from behind Wen Xin, covering her. He leaned down to give her back a gentle kiss before standing up and walking into the wardrobe to put on some casual clothes before leaving the bedroom.

Meanwhile, Mu Chengxi’s phone was blinking frantically on the coffee table. He picked it up and answered the call.

“Master Xi, the food has arrived. Can you open the door so I can bring it up to you?”

Two minutes later, the doorbell rang in the apartment. Mu Chengxi opened the door, accepted the food delivered by the driver, and then told the driver to go back and rest.

Mu Chengxi looked at the dinner bought from Tianxiang Pavilion by the driver and was quite satisfied. He prepared a bit of each dish for Wen Xin on a tray and then carried it into the room, ready to feed Wen Xin.

By this time, Wen Xin had changed into her pajamas and was lying on the bed, holding her phone and seemingly engrossed in something.

“Put down whatever you’re holding and come eat first.”

Supporting herself with her arms, Wen Xin looked up at Mu Chengxi, who was carrying the food, and raised an eyebrow slightly. “Why so thoughtful? Trying to make amends?”

“Not really making amends. I can only say that my little ancestor has worked hard. I’ll serve her.”

Hearing Mu Chengxi deliberately mention ‘hard work’, the blush on Wen Xin’s face returned. She glared at Mu Chengxi without a word.

“Eating in the bedroom might leave a smell. Let’s eat in the dining room.”

Wen Xin rolled off the bed. She had already taken the special pills that she had made, and her strength had recovered quite a bit. She looked quite energetic.

“Okay, let’s go out to eat.” Mu Chengxi saw that Wen Xin was in good spirits and didn’t refuse. He carried the tray of food out of the room, and they ate together in the dining room.

After they were full, Wen Xin went into the kitchen and cleaned the dishes they had used.

Turning around, she saw Mu Chengxi lazily leaning against the door frame, watching her with gentle and affectionate eyes.

“Go sit on the sofa.” Wen Xin came out of the kitchen, her gaze falling on the wound on Mu Chengxi’s wrist. Her tone was cold as she spoke.

Unsure of what Wen Xin intended to do, Mu Chengxi simply watched as she went into her room to put away things. After about a minute, he calmly stretched his legs and walked over to sit on the sofa in the living room.

Not long after, he heard the sound of the bedroom door opening. Wen Xin emerged, holding a bottle of medicine and some gauze.

Mu Chengxi withdrew his gaze from Wen Xin and glanced at the wound on his wrist. It seemed that since he came back, Wen Xin had only applied medicine to his wound once and hadn’t checked it since.

Sitting on the sofa, Wen Xin gently patted Mu Chengxi’s leg. “Give me your hand…”

Mu Chengxi obediently extended his hand to Wen Xin. He deliberately lowered his voice and spoke in a soothing tone, “My wound was already healed after I applied medicine, but you reopened it today.”

Wen Xin knew very well that she was the one who had reopened his wound; she didn’t need him to remind her. She raised her eyes, glaring coldly at Mu Chengxi.

“If there’s a next time, it won’t be as simple as just reopening the wound. I’ll just break your hand.”

Wen Xin’s voice was cold as she spoke, and she didn’t seem to be in a good mood. Mu Chengxi dared not speak and could only watch her quietly.

After Wen Xin finished applying medicine and bandaging Mu Chengxi’s wrist, she lazilv leaned back on the sofa.

Looking up at Mu Chengxi, her dark bright eyes held a faint watery sheen. She didn’t have the sharpness she had before; instead, she seemed to evoke a sense of pity.

Mu Chengxi couldn’t bear to see Wen Xin like this. He reached out and pulled her into his arms. “What’s wrong with you?”

“Am I being too unreasonable? But every time I see you laughing and talking with her, I feel so uncomfortable. I don’t know how to describe my feelings. I just don’t like seeing you let your guard down with her. It makes me unhappy, irritated… ”

Wen Xin rested her head on Mu Chengxi’s chest, unable to describe her feelings.

Perhaps she was accustomed to seeing Mu Chengxi maintain a cold and distant demeanor towards everyone. This was the first time she saw him treat someone differently, and she couldn’t control her emotions. She felt that this man belonged to her and only her. She didn’t want to see him being so kind to other women.

Hearing Wen Xin admit to being jealous, Mu Chengxi felt relieved. He gently rubbed Wen Xin’s back, soothing her restless emotions.

“Your possessiveness, I really like it. Don’t worry, this won’t happen again in the future. I’ll keep my distance from her.”

Mu Chengxi didn’t see Wen Xin’s little tantrum as unreasonable. Instead, he thoroughly enjoyed her possessiveness. Wasn’t this the feeling of being cared for that he wanted?

Listening to Mu Chengxi’s reassurance and understanding, Wen Xin tightened her arms around his neck even more. It seemed that only by holding him tightly like this could she dispel the uneasiness in her heart.

The next morning, before Wen Xin could fully wake up, her phone started vibrating frantically. She lifted her arm, somewhat drowsily, and picked up her phone, giving it a faint glance. Unexpectedly, it was a call from Zhao Honghan.

She tried to clear her mind a little and answered the call, “Uncle Zhao, what’s the matter?”

“Wen Xin, are you still half-asleep? Uncle Zhao knows it’s too early to call you, but have you heard about the Zhao family’s situation?”

The Zhao family? Hearing Zhao Honghan’s anxious tone, Wen Xin didn’t need to think to know why he called. She was much more awake now.

“I heard… Does Uncle Zhao also want to intervene in this matter?”

Wen Xin pulled away from Mu Chengxi’s embrace around her waist, struggling to extricate herself from his embrace. She got out of bed and sat on the nearby sofa.

“Wen Xin, yesterday my mother called back everyone from the Zhao family. She said the current situation of the Zhao family is very bad. My second brother said over the phone that this matter was manipulated by Mu Chengxi.. He asked me to ask you, what can be done to spare the Zhao family?”
