Hidden Marriage: Spoiled by the Imperial Commander-Chapter 410: Finding Another Way to Cheer Her Up
Chapter 410: Chapter 410: Finding Another Way to Cheer Her Up
Inside the wardrobe was a colorful array of women’s clothing.
All of this had been prepared for her to move in after the wedding.
Having been separated for so long, he had still kept everything ready for her.
It meant that he had never thought of giving her up.
Yan Qianyi’s hands tightly covered her mouth as she sobbed silently.
No matter how fierce Mu Yunlie had been tonight, in the end, it was she who had wronged him first.
Outside the bedroom, Mu Yunlie did not leave.
He stood guard outside the door, thinking about his emotional outburst just now and feeling deeply regretful.
In his life, only when his parents and younger brother died did he ever lose control like that.
Mu Yunlie looked down at his right hand.
He must have hurt her earlier, right?
The more he thought about it, the more regret he felt, and he clenched his fist tightly and smashed it into the wall.
Mu Yunlie stood watch by the door all night and sent a message to Pei Yuexuan in the middle of the night when his emotions had settled, asking him to bring breakfast over in the morning.
Pei Yuexuan had set a special alert for calls, ring tones, and text messages from Mu Yunlie.
Sound asleep in the dead of night, he heard Mu Yunlie’s message tone and woke up instantly, jumping out of bed with a start and checking the message wide-eyed.
"Bring breakfast over?" Pei Yuexuan muttered to himself in confusion.
He had been with the older gentleman for so many years, and the older gentleman had never asked him to deliver "take-out" before.
Usually, the older gentleman drank Nutrient Liquid at home.
After dawn, Pei Yuexuan immediately went out to buy breakfast.
Mu Yunlie had not slept all night and had been guarding outside the whole night.
After Pei Yuexuan arrived, he finally left the doorway and went downstairs to fetch the breakfast.
He instructed Pei Yuexuan, "Go and fetch Aunt Xue here, tell her that Qianyi is with me, then move all of Qianyi’s lab stuff over here, and that spare room upstairs, turn it into a lab for her."
Pei Yuexuan’s eyes widened slightly in surprise, "Are you and Madam reconciled?"
"Less talking, just go," Mu Yunlie closed the door, not willing to say more.
Pei Yuexuan was puzzled. Since they had reconciled, why did the older gentleman still have such a dark face?
And he looked a bit haggard too.
But things were moving in the right direction, and the anxiety-ridden days he had been enduring seemed finally about to come to an end!
Pei Yuexuan hummed a little tune happily and drove off to Yan Qianyi’s house.
Mu Yunlie placed the breakfast on a plate and carried it upstairs.
Yan Qianyi was lying on the bed, with closed eyes, and it was unclear whether she was asleep or awake.
He walked over, placed the breakfast on the nightstand, and whispered, "Time for breakfast."
She did not respond.
He turned to look at her, her breathing was even, and her expression relaxed; she must still be asleep.
Mu Yunlie sat gently on the edge of the bed, frowning slightly as he gazed at her.
He had thought that she would be easily startled awake after falling asleep, but she was sleeping so soundly.
Had she gone to bed too late last night?
Seeing her closed eyes a little swollen as if she had been crying, a sharp pain struck Mu Yunlie’s heart.
He had been too emotional yesterday, causing her distress.
If she hadn’t let go of him in her heart before, but after last night’s argument, she must now be utterly disappointed in him, right?
He truly only didn’t want her to leave him again; he hadn’t intended to hurt her.
Mu Yunlie couldn’t help but stretch out his hand, gently caressing her cheek.
Suddenly, Yan Qianyi’s eyelashes trembled, and she opened her eyes. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
Mu Yunlie quickly withdrew his hand and turned away.
Yan Qianyi blankly stared at his profile, thinking she was still dreaming.
It took her a moment to realize she was now in Mu Yunlie’s house, not in a dream.
"Wake up and have some breakfast," Mu Yunlie said.
Yan Qianyi sat up, looked towards the breakfast on the bedside table, and then back to Mu Yunlie, "Thank... thank you..."
"I already sent Vice Officer Pei to pick up Aunt Xue. After you eat, continue to rest for a while. I have to leave," he said.
After Mu Yunlie finished speaking, he got up and went to the dressing room.
Last night, while guarding the door, he felt extremely regretful and had already decided to apologize to her when she woke up in the morning.
But her "thank you" was so cool and distant, the suddenly widened gap between them left him at a loss for how to speak, how to face her.
After Mu Yunlie picked up a change of clothes in the dressing room, he headed out.
Yan Qianyi looked at his back and quickly called out, "Wait a minute!"
He stopped but did not turn back.
Yan Qianyi said, "Don’t lock me in the bedroom. I still have many things to take care of."
"I won’t. If you really want to leave, a lock could not keep you. Still, I hope you won’t do that."
Having said that, Mu Yunlie continued on his way.
The door closed softly behind him.
Yan Qianyi slowly exhaled and turned to look at the breakfast placed on the bedside table.
She knew that when he was alone, he only drank Nutrient Liquid for three meals a day.
This breakfast was specially prepared for her.
After changing clothes, Mu Yunlie went to the Military Department.
On his way, he made an audio call to Mu Huaner.
Mu Huaner was very happy to receive the call, "Ah Lie, it’s been a long time since you contacted little aunt voluntarily. Are you that busy recently?"
"Little aunt, I want to ask, if a man has upset you, what gift would make you happy?" Mu Yunlie asked.
He was still somewhat uncomfortable about Yan Qianyi hiding the pregnancy, which was why he couldn’t bring himself to apologize.
But he wanted to make her happy.
So he thought, after handling matters at the Military Department, he would buy a gift for Yan Qianyi.
Find another way to cheer her up.
But he did not understand women, did not know what kind of gifts women liked.
Little aunt was also a woman; surely she would understand better than him.
The only women he could consult with, apart from little aunt, were his grandmother.
But since his grandmother was older, her preferences might not align with those of the younger generation.
Mu Huaner was stunned for a moment.
Mu Yunlie would never ask her about this sort of thing.
She immediately understood Mu Yunlie’s intention and asked, "Are you trying to make someone happy?"
Mu Huaner knew she was asking the obvious.
Who else but Yan Qianyi could make Ah Lie act like this?
But she still hoped to hear it from Ah Lie himself.
"Of course, it’s Qianyi," Mu Yunlie said.
Hearing this, Mu Huaner’s heart tensed, "Aren’t you two broken up for a long time now?"
They hadn’t reconciled for so long, Mu Huaner thought they were finished, but unexpectedly...
"Little aunt, Qianyi is pregnant, and I’m going to be a father," Mu Yunlie’s voice carried a hint of joy, "I won’t let her leave me again. The child must have a complete family."
Mu Huaner was so shocked she couldn’t speak.
Seeing no response, Mu Yunlie asked, "Little aunt, did you hear me? You always urged me to marry and have children sooner. Are you satisfied now?"
"Oh!" Mu Huaner came to her senses, "I heard, I was just a bit preoccupied. Ah Lie, congratulations, you’re going to be a dad, that’s wonderful!"
