Chapter 95 -95: Recuperating at His Villa_1
For Mu Yingchen, no matter what it was, he always gave her the best; it had slowly become a habit.
There was no room as comfortable as his bedroom, so he let her stay there, and he had never considered asking her to stay in the guest room.
Because there was some tension between them, or at least that’s what Su Wanxia thought, she didn’t know how to argue with him, so she remained silent as he carried her to the bed.
“It’s still early; rest for a while. Someone will bring dinner over when it’s ready. I’m heading back to the office. You can call me if you need anything,” Mu Yingchen said in a soft, helpless tone, gazing at the silent Su Wanxia.
He probably had a lot of work piled up at the company today, and staying at the office would give him the chance to work overtime.
Su Wanxia didn’t expect he would actually go to the office, and suddenly she felt a knot of conflict inside. It must be said that she had developed a habit of depending on him, so when she heard he would be staying at the office for the next few days, she still felt a bit awkward and uneasy.
But things had already reached this point, and he had already said it, so she didn’t really have a reason to ask him to stay. After all, it was she who said she didn’t want to see him.
She nodded silently, in the end not saying a word.
Mu Yingchen took one more glance at her with her head down, then turned and left the bedroom.
When Su Wanxia heard the sound of the door closing, she slowly lifted her head and stared blankly at the firmly shut door.
She then turned her sore eyes and, somewhat wearily, lay down on the spacious bed.
Closing her eyes, she could even smell the faint elegant fragrance that lingered on the bed.
It was his scent, the one she was familiar with.
In the vast and luxurious bedroom, there was quietness, accompanied only by her own soft breathing.
She was lying on the bed, lost in thought when suddenly there came a gentle knock on the door.
She was startled for a moment, then sat up and said faintly, “Come in.”
The door opened, and seven or eight maids walked in, in an orderly fashion.
The head maid, with respectful and friendly manners, said to Su Wanxia, “Miss Su, I am Wen Li. We are responsible for your diet and daily life these next few days. If you have any instructions, you can call us at any time; we are right outside the door.”
Then she took a thick stack of books from another maid behind her.
“These are some albums that Miss Su likes to read. You can look through them when you feel bored,” Wen Li carefully placed the albums on the luxurious bedside table after she spoke.
She also marveled to herself that the young master usually didn’t like people to enter his bedroom casually. They only came in to clean when he was at work.
But unexpectedly, Miss Su, who had been here only twice, was now staying right in the young master’s room—and he was so attentive to her.
It honestly left all of them in shock, to the point where they couldn’t close their mouths.
A sour feeling tugged at Su Wanxia’s heart; he was always like this, always thinking ahead for her.
She nodded and managed a slight smile, “Thank you for your trouble.”
“Not at all, Miss Su, you are being too polite. This is what we should do,” Wen Li said, somewhat panicked. How could they speak of trouble? Even if they were given a hundred guts, they would not dare to use the word ‘trouble.’
Moreover, she was someone the young master cared about, and they were more than willing to assist her.
“Then—if I could wash my face,” Su Wanxia said somewhat awkwardly. She felt her makeup was probably smeared like a cat’s face, which must look scary.
Only after she mentioned it did Wen Li look carefully at her face.
The delicate face with the light makeup was indeed a bit smudged, but it didn’t diminish her beauty in the slightest.
“Of course.”
With that, Wen Li stepped forward to help Su Wanxia, and another maid came to assist, holding her other arm.
Su Wanxia felt a bit embarrassed, her foot had actually been set properly, but it had started to swell slowly, making it painful to walk.
If she were on her own, it would be somewhat difficult, but having two people supporting her seemed a bit much.
However, she then remembered that they were acting on Mu Yingchen’s orders, so she didn’t say anything and let them help her into the bathroom.
After washing her face, she felt much lighter in the face.
Sitting on the sofa, she browsed through some albums until dinner was brought to her.
Looking at the dishes on the table, Su Wanxia had no appetite.
“Mu, uh, where is the young master?”
“The young master has been gone for a while now,” Wen Li replied truthfully. “He left just after instructing us to take care of you.”
“Oh, haha,” Su Wanxia smiled faintly.
“Miss Su, do you need the young master for something?”
“No, I was just asking.” She maintained a calm demeanor, then bowed her head and began to eat slowly.
At night, she lay in his bed, unable to fall asleep no matter how she tried. The events of recent times kept replaying in her mind.
The images stopped at the scene from that afternoon at his house, where his mother stood by the window looking at her with eyes that made her feel afraid, as though she was being sentenced to death by a thousand cuts.

She couldn’t understand why his mother would look at her with such eyes. Could it be just because she went to the Mu Family with Mu Yingchen?
Despite much thought, Su Wanxia couldn’t figure it out, her head throbbing with dull pain. She eventually gave up trying to puzzle it out and began to self-hypnotize.
Perhaps due to sheer exhaustion, once she let her mind go blank, she fell asleep soon after.
She slept soundly until she woke up naturally.
When she opened her eyes and saw the unfamiliar surroundings, she was momentarily startled, then remembered she was in his villa, not at home.
After a night’s rest, her foot didn’t feel too painful. She silently praised the medicine prescribed by the physician, finding it remarkably effective.
Glancing at the clock, she was shocked; had she really slept this long? It was already ten in the morning?
With that thought, she got out of bed on her own. After a few tentative movements, she found that her foot indeed wasn’t too painful.
She was grateful for the quick recovery, as it meant she wouldn’t have to stay here too long.
Just as she was about to head to the door, the phone suddenly rang.
“Hello, Can.”
“Summer, what’s been going on with you these past couple of days? How come you haven’t been showing up at the office?” Meng Can’s voice carried a hint of worry.
Su Wanxia hummed in acknowledgment, unsure of how to explain to him. After a moment, she spoke somewhat sheepishly: “I twisted my ankle yesterday, uh, so I didn’t go to the office.”
“How is it? Is it serious?” Meng Can asked with urgency in his voice.
“It’s not serious, just a twist. It’s fine now, and I’ll be able to go to work tomorrow, haha.”
“Where are you? I’ll come to see you.”
“Uh, no need, really, I’m fine. You can see me at the office tomorrow. That’s not too late,” Su Wanxia joked half-heartedly.
Hearing Su Wanxia say this, Meng Can’s mouth twisted in a bitter grin, and tumult stirred in his heart.
How could he forget that she had that person by her side? And he could only stand in a corner where she couldn’t see him, silently watching over her.
