The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu's Pampered Wife Chapter 79 - Apathetic (1)

Chapter 79: Apathetic (1)

When Xi Xinyi caught up, Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye had already walked out of the exit, so all she could catch were the two departing figures from behind.

“Xinyi!”

Han Yifeng caught up too. However, Xi Xinyi had already put on her sungla.s.ses and was running towards the exit ahead, her anxious look worrying Han Yifeng.

Because Xi Xinyi had recently signed on to be Glory World Corporation’s jewelry spokesperson, Imperial Sky Jewellery City that she was under was in Imperial Sky Entertainment City.

Xi Xinyi initially wanted to go over for a spin, but she did not expect that some of the wedding dresses that Imperial Sky had brought in would be that beautiful, so she had just dragged him along to take a look. Unexpectedly, they b.u.mped into Xi Xiaye there and even saw her seeming very intimate with a man they did not recognize.

Xi Xinyi kept chasing and searching. Finally, she saw Xi Xiaye standing by the car on the side of the open plaza and she quickly rushed up…

Xi Xiaye closed the doc.u.ment in her hands and looked at Li Si as she nodded. “Mmm, it’s this one. Thanks for your trouble.”

It was some data related to Imperial Sky Entertainment City that her a.s.sistant, Xiao Mei, had sent over at the last minute. It had all the data that she had spent days and nights and hard work arranging.

“Director Xi… No, it’s Missus… You’re too courteous!” Li Si was still trying to adapt to the change in address.

Xi Xiaye smiled before she waved. “a.s.sistant Li, whether it’s at the company or at work, just address me as you used to.

To be honest, she was not too used to being addressed as Missus too. She kept feeling like she had aged just with people calling her that.

“Okay, Director Xi!” Li Si smiled candidly, as he looked towards the car. “Director Xi, you’d better get into the car, it’s quite cold out. The weather looks pretty gloomy too. It’s probably the rain rushing to come before the New Year.”

When Xi Xiaye heard this, she looked up towards the sky. Indeed, she noticed that there seemed to be hints of the haze. The weather in the past few days had been pretty kind, so she did not expect it to be like that now.

When she tore her gaze away, she noticed that Mu Yuchen was already sitting steadily in the car driver’s seat. She then nodded, “Okay, right, please help me reply to the Commerce Department that I’ll get someone to retrieve the doc.u.ments in another two days.”

It was the data a.n.a.lysis that she had let Mu Yuchen bring straight to the Commerce Department. The Commerce Department’s efficiency was very high. They had very quickly amended the parts that needed corrections and handed it back to her for review.

“Okay, Director Xi!” As Li Si answered, she opened the car door for Xi Xiaye, who nodded politely as she bent down and was about to enter. However, suddenly Xi Xinyi’s rushed and concerned voice was heard from behind.

“Hold on, Sis!”

This sudden voice had startled Xi Xiaye in that second. The fingers that held onto the doc.u.ments had subconsciously tightened as her entire body stiffened. She remained in that posture, and after a few blinks, she eased.

She thought about it and did not know what else she could say at this point, so she might as well pretend she did not see them. Maybe it would be better for her. Just as she was about to get into the car, Han Yifeng’s voice suddenly rang out too.

“Xiaye! Xinyi’s just worried about whether you’re doing well. There are some things that we should find a place to sit down and talk about it. That’d be best for everyone, wouldn’t it?”

Han Yifeng had suddenly caught up too and he was holding onto Xi Xinyi who was panting. Seeing Xi Xinyi’s beautiful eyes filled with guilt, unease, concern, and pain, he felt sorry for her. He turned to see Xi Xiaye’s slightly angled body unmoving, and he felt an indescribable feeling again.

The fact that things have turned out this way was not his intention. He only hoped that Xiaye could be frank and accept everything. That way, they might not need to feel so miserable and guilty.

Sometimes, people were like that, always hoping that others could be forgiving, yet very seldom standing in the other person’s shoes to think about all the pain that other person had endured and swallowed to let them be. They never thought of how much strength and courage were needed.

He, Han Yifeng, had no doubt made this mistake too.

Xi Xiaye laughed bitterly. She fell silent for a moment before she straightened up, turned over, and her eyes looked indifferently at them. Although her gaze was still, her slightly raspy voice was very calm, “All that should’ve been said, I’ve said. All that should’ve been returned, I’ve returned. I’m doing very well right now. As for all your concerns, forget it.”

When she heard this, Xi Xinyi turned pale. “Sis, I really didn’t know that that would happen, I didn’t know that Grandmother and the rest… Now, even Grandfather is very angry too. He’s not feeling too well. Won’t you go back to visit him? It’s because of your matter that he hasn’t spoken to us in many days. Grandmother’s not doing too well either. The doctor said that she can’t be provoked again…”

“So? You want me to satisfy your requests and present myself as a toy to Master Qi. Otherwise, where have you planned to stuff me? Or do you want me to be charitable and forgive you, smile and wish you the best, and then present you with a generous engagement gift?”

Xi Xiaye smiled calmly, yet her twinkling eyes were filled with ridicule. “Years ago, you guys also used the same card to force my mother to yield voluntarily. Have you forgotten? So many years later, I didn’t think that the same move would be used on me again.”

“It’s not like that, Sis. Listen to me. Mother has felt very ashamed towards Aunt. She often goes to University A to look for Aunt, but she’s always unwilling…”

Xi Xinyi ran up and wanted to explain.

“Mother’s naturally apathetic and gentle. She already yield everything, so what else do you want from her? All these years, haven’t you guys thought of letting her go?”

“Enough, Xinyi! Enough, Xiaye! When Xinyi and I get engaged, we hope you can come even if it’s not for the sake of our past, we’re now still considered as people in the same circle just as you wished. Let’s just treat it as getting to know each other once again!”

When Han Yifeng saw Xi Xinyi looking extremely miserable, he instantly stopped the topic from continuing.

Xi Xiaye’s lips curled apathetically. She was made of unyielding character, stubborn and unwilling to concede. “CEO Han, those who know me, Xi Xiaye, would know that I’m not someone who’s willing to befriend just anyone. You two are a Mayor’s heiress, Xi family’s beloved daughter, and Han Corporation’s CEO Han. I’m just a common wage earner, so… I appreciate your good intentions. It’s fine.”

Then, she bent down and got into the car, the car had very quickly driven away, gradually vanishing from Han Yifeng and Xi Xinyi’s line of sight…
