Chapter 181: Not the Tamest Horse in the Barn

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The room suddenly felt a little repressive.

“Chenyan had been back for quite a while. After conditioning her body, she should be able to have a baby now!”

Wen Ya spoke up suddenly and broke the silence. She cast a glance a Chenyan with a slight smile in her eyes. Mu Chenyan could sense a hint of longing and envy in her tone!

It might be due to knowing that Wen Ya had lost a child before that Mu Chenyan sympathized her, but she could not say it.

Mu Chenyan smiled slightly. She knew no matter what she said at this moment, she would not earn anymore than a scowl.

If she expressed her lack of desire for a child, Old Mistress would be enraged, how could a madam of Yuan Family have a thought such as this?

If she expressed her desire for a child, Old Mistress might also quip at her, how dare she express her ambition of succeeding the Yuan Family?

The tension was tight between the two families. Even though they knew the inside story, they had to pretend nothing was happening. Mu Chenyan was going to go crazy.

Beside her, Yuan Xuan held her hand into a tight grip.

He almost growled, “It should be soon! When we have the little carrot head, grandmother, you won’t feel lonely anymore!”

With that declaration, Yuan Xuan looked at Mu Chenyan before staring straight at his grandmother with conviction!

A tiny chill crept up Mu Chenyan’s back. Yuan Xuan made a bold statement—his child must be born by her.

Old Mistress scoffed lightly. She looked at Mu Chenyan’s skinny frame then looked at Yuan Xuan.

In the end, she sighed. ‘This child could not grow out of this foxy woman, after all.’

“She’s all skin and bones, we don’t even know when she would be carrying. Moreover, having a weak constitution is not good for the child! I think she should condition her body for now!”

Mu Chenyan was not sure why, but she could hear Old Mistress’s tone loosening up, accepting the fact that she might continue Yuan Family’s legacy by birthing an offspring...

“Chenyan is not weak, I think she’s just right!” Yuan Xuan protested. His protective nature had tickled Mu Chenyan’s heart.

“Grandmother, I heard you were also a skinny beauty in your heydays. Look, Yuan Family still managed to blossom into the fruitful tree that we are now. All this is to your credit!”

Yuan Xuan had always been so protective of his wife, it was almost watertight. He praised Old Mistress, but at the same time, he stopped her from her insults!

Old Mistress sighed again. She understood just how fiercely Yuan Xuan was protecting the girl. It was the Spring Festival, a rare time where everyone gathered. Even though she disliked Mu Chenyan, she should not be too overt about it, so she decided to let it go.

Old Mistress turned toward Wen Ya. “It had been so many years before there was any news from Zhe’er. Xiao Ya, you should go and have a checkup at your third uncle’s hospital!”

Wen Ya’s face paled. She looked at Yuan Zhe with trembling lips before he smiled. “Grandmother, I’ve been too busy, I’m not ready yet! Yuan Xuan is the descendant of the eldest child, but uncle didn’t want children due to his prominent military merit, causing Yuan Xuan to be the younger one, I think he should take the lead this time!”

Having said that, Yuan Zhe shot Yuan Xuan a mysterious smile as he glanced at Mu Chenyan.

Seeing the topic boomeranged to Mu Chenyan, Old Mistress smiled faintly, “You young people always have your ideas. Whatever you want to do, go ahead, I can’t care anymore!”

Xue Meiwei and Lu Shan smiled alongside Old Mistress, saying that the children have their own destinies to fulfill.

Yuan Zhe saw Mu Chenyan’s cold gaze and laughed. He said softly, “Chenyan is the number one socialite cultured by Mu Family. She has both looks and talent. The future eldest grandchild in Yuan Family has to be birthed by her!”

“However, Yuan Xuan should work harder. I heard my sister-in-law isn’t the tamest horse in the barn...”

Halfway through his unfiltered comment, Yuan Zhe paused and stared at Mu Chenyan, grinning at the irony.

It was an obvious challenge. If it were not for each other’s understanding of the situation, it would seem as if he had pursued Mu Chenyan before.

Silently, Mu Chenyan glowered in disdain!
