The old lady and her grandson were smart people. They knew what the only option left for them was. Although the two of them were not happy with Lin Qingya for making use of the Mu family to achieve her own aim, the revenge was not worth any trouble that might come along with it. They knew they need not punish her right now!
Gu Chenyi still had many years to go, and relationships between young couples hardly last long, especially this kind that was built on lies and betrayals. It would be time for them to strike when Lin Qingya was no longer under the care and protection of Gu Chenyi!
After one week, Bai Xuexian was sent to a mental asylum deep within the woods. Whoever entered that institution would not depart unscathed.
Nobody knew what she had experienced that traumatized her so much in that one week, and neither did anyone want to find out, let alone ask about it.
To Matriarch Mu, this outcome might actually be the best for her daughter-in-law.
When Mu Huan learned that her nemesis had been sent to a mental asylum, and one that was known to be the strictest, she was so elated that she decided to cook for Bao Junyan that night. Bai Xuexian could no longer harm her granny.
In her heart, this man was the one truly deserving of her devotion. She promised herself that if the man ever needed her in any way in the future, she would give him her all to help him!
For someone like her, who could be impulsive and hot-headed, being good to someone meant being willing to serve him with her all, including her life!
After she prepared all the food in the kitchen, she took a picture and sent it to Bao Junyan.
“Hubby, I’ve prepared something delicious for you tonight. Come home early for dinner later, alright?”
The man was in the middle of a meeting when he received the text. Breaking into a soft smile, he replied with a simple “OK.”
After that, he seemed to have thought of something and sent another reply.
“My nephew and his girlfriend will be coming over tonight.”
Mu Huan was stunned when she saw the message. His nephew and his nephew’s girlfriend?
So how old is this nephew who has a girlfriend already?
Am I going to be an aunt at this young age?
OMG…
It was difficult for her to describe her feelings there and then!
She went to prepare a few dishes as guests were expected.
After she had prepared the food, she went upstairs to change for the evening.
Just as she was on the way down to the hall, the housekeeper walked up to her.
“Madam, young mister and his partner have arrived.”
From the way the housekeeper addressed his nephew, she reckoned that this boy must be on very good terms with Bao Junyan.
Although she had been married to him for more than a month, she had never met his parents nor other family members.
This nephew of his would be the first member she would meet from his family, and that made her rather nervous.
She smoothed the creases on her outfit one last time unconsciously before following the housekeeper downstairs to meet the guests.
When the couple seated on the sofa heard footsteps approaching from the staircase, they intuitively turned to have a look.
And the two of them were thoroughly stunned by whom they saw!
When Mu Huan had a chance to have a closer look at the couple on the sofa, she, too, was taken aback!
What the f*ck!
The same thought flashed across their minds simultaneously!
What a dog’s life!
After a very long pause…
Gu Chenyi stood up abruptly and exclaimed, “Mu Huan, why does it have to be you?!”
When his uncle had his matchmaking feast, Gu Chenyi had been away overseas to get over his failed relationship; hence, he did not know whom his uncle had married. While on the way to his uncle’s residence, the boy had been wondering what kind of a woman would that be to have captured his uncle’s heart.
He had gone through a thousand possibilities inside his head, but never did he expect to find Mu Huan to be the woman his uncle had married!
She was his newest aunt-in-law!
This is crazy! This was too crazy for him to comprehend!
