Chapter 443 - I Dont Want to Eat Candy. I Want to Eat You. (1/2)

On the way back to the Mu family’s residence, Mu Feichi held the sleeping figure in his arms. His gloomy expression seemed even colder than the weather outside.

As Qi Yuan drove the car, he glanced in the rearview mirror worriedly, then asked a question he had always wanted to ask.

“Young Marshal Mu, why did Miss Yun have to do this operation? Hadn’t she thought about the consequences if something were to have gone wrong during the operation?”

If something had gone wrong, at that time, even Young Marshal Mu might not have been able to protect her.

If the reason wasn’t that she had absolute confidence in herself, then there must have been another reason she had to do it.

He couldn’t understand the reason. After all, the Yun family didn’t have the guts to provoke the people of the Si family.

Therefore, she didn’t do it for the Yun family.

“She did it for me.” In his mellow voice, Qi Yuan could hear helplessness toward her unruliness and doting affection for her.

Mu Feichi lowered his eyes to look at the person lying in his arms. His dark eyes flickered with light and appeared gentle enough to transcend time.

“For…you, Young Marshal Mu?” Qi Yuan really didn’t understand now.

Since that little girl had uncharacteristically done something for Young Marshal Mu, why did he look so gloomy?

Shouldn’t he be overjoyed or at least secretly rejoicing while feigning aloofness?

The way these two people got along with each other was truly weird and confusing.

“The Si family has a very special place among the three most prominent clans. It is a century-old clan and an independent existence. She wants the Si family patriarch to owe her, and thus me, a lifesaving favor in case the day ever comes when that debt might save my life.”

She was so desperate to be able to save him.

Qi Yuan was surprised, and it took a while for him to find his voice, “She…she really thinks in the long term!”

It was precisely because of her long-term thinking that her intentions were even more touching.

It probably made Young Marshal Mu’s heart ache.

One would only wholeheartedly and considerately plan for someone who was extremely close to them.

This little girl repaying her grat.i.tude had struck a nerve with Young Marshal Mu.

“Don’t you think she’s acting more and more as if she were Madame Mu?”

Mu Feichi gently stroked the soft little thing in his arms. His eyes were full of mirth, and there was also deep doting affection in them.

“Yes, definitely!” Qi Yuan nodded vigorously. It seemed that Young Marshal Mu hadn’t chosen the wrong person.
