Mr. Yuan’s Dilemma: Can’t Help Falling in Love with You Chapter 97

Chapter 97 - Liu Li Villa

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When she saw Mu Chenyan’s pale expression, she realized that she had probably just suffered a serious blow.

Despite being the true Mrs Yuan by definition, she was still denied any form of genuine affection.

Moreover, as long as she was absent from Yuan Xuan’s heart, Zhao Ruoxin stood a chance.

When she thought of this, Zhao Ruoxin became extremely delighted. However, she still needed to act calm and composed.

She pretended to be close to Mu Chenyan by holding her arm as the seemingly harmless smile on her face simultaneously grew wider.

She placed her pale little hand on Mu Chenyan’s shoulder while her tone was filled with politeness – she was almost acting as if she was mistress instead.

“You should hurry up and go in since you’re already here. The autumn breeze outside is terribly cold, it looks like your little hands are already freezing!”

Mu Chenyan heard this and felt a little awkward, almost as if she had been caught peeping.

If she left now, the people inside would realize that she had come over.

Mu Chenyan gently removed her arm away from Zhao Ruoxin’s grip before she quietly replied, “I’ve just arrived and haven’t had the time to go inside yet.”

She then calmed herself down before stepping forward to enter the side hall without any further dilly-dallying.

When Zhao Ruoxin noticed that Mu Chenyan was intentionally distancing herself, she calmly pulled back her own arm and followed her closely from behind.

When Zhao Ruoxin saw Yuan Xuan sitting beside his grandmother in a graceful and elegant manner, she did not have to verbally express her happiness. She simply rushed over and murmured, “Brother Xuan, I haven’t seen you for so long…”

Mu Chenyan turned her face away because she had no intention of watching Zhao Ruoxin behave flirtatiously with her partner.

The moment she saw her, Mu Chenyan unconsciously thought of Qinger.

However, Yuan Xuan’s gaze and attention were focused solely on Mu Chenyan before his tightly pursed thin lips quietly grunted half-heartedly in agreement.

When their gazes met, he saw that Mu Chenyan’s eyes were filled with coldness. From Mu Chenyan’s perspective, his gaze was just something that was filled with lust and was devoid of any traces of real love.

As her irritation was apparent, it became even more obvious when she tried to conceal it.

Yuan Xuan saw that not only was Mu Chenyan’s complexion terrible, but she looked even more tired than usual as well. Why had she hastily pursued him to Upper Mansion?

The landmines here had not been cleared yet, so why was this stupid woman charging headfirst into them?

He felt anger toward Mu Chenyan and simultaneously desired to return home to teach Ah Fu a lesson for being incapable.

Zhao Ruoxin became slightly disappointed when Yuan Xuan did not respond to her enthusiasm. Her little face was dyed a shade of crimson.

She approached the old woman and pouted as if she had been greatly inconvenienced.

Old Mistress held her breath and shot a glance at Mu Chenyan.

Old Mistress Yuan would not have been so angry if Mu Chenyan had not arrived. Now that she had seen her, her heart became ridden with more anxiety.

No matter how one looked at it, Yuan Xuan was her grandson whom she had single-handedly raised. Even if she was filled with rage, Old Mistress would be reluctant to direct it at Yuan Xuan.

However, Mu Chenyan was different.

From her perspective, this daughter-in-law was an outsider. Yuan Xuan was right when he claimed that Mu Chenyan was dependent on the kindness of others since the Mu Family was now ruined.

Old Mistress felt that Yuan Xuan had refused to get a divorce two years ago solely because he pitied this woman.

Nevertheless, when Mu Chenyan saw Old Mistress looking at her, she quietly greeted her grandmother.

Old Mistress lowered her eyes without acknowledging Mu Chenyan. She reached her hand out and pulled Zhao Ruoxin over before she turned to Yuan Xuan and said, “In a few days time, Ruoxin wants to go to Wintry Lake to sketch. Since you’ve been slaving away in the office day and night, you should likewise take this opportunity to relax with Ruoxin and others at the Yuan Family’s mansion.”

The Yuan Family had a mansion called Liu Li Villa that spanned a thousand hectors located Wintry Lake. Since Yuan Xuan liked to take care of the garden there, Liu Li Villa was named after him.

Old Mistress would also usually spend her summers vacationing there.

However, no one else was brave enough to enter as they pleased.

Now Old Mistress want Zhao Ruoxin to stay at Liu Li Villa for several days?

Although they were both dependents, it looked like Mu Chenyan’s position was very different from Miss Zhao’s, despite the latter being an outsider.
