Chapter 37: She’s Very Much Awake

Night fell, and the lights shone on the path of darkness in front of them. Wen Xi moved her gaze to the darkness, staring into the depths of it.

Yunchuan asked her a couple of questions- regular chit-chat that she didn’t bother listening to.

When they reached his house, she left her world and came back into the real one. She looked over at him. “We’re here.”

Yunchuan looked back. “Finally willing to grace me with a look?”

Wen Xi didn’t say anything but got out of the car instead.

Yunchuan thought of her actions as childish anger, and he didn’t mind trying to dote on her a bit. With a smile, he didn’t say anything.

He held Wen Xi’s arm as they walked into the dining area.

His family was eating, and before even entering the living room, she could hear Nan Muyun and Zhang Ruiqin acting cute.

“Mom, didn’t you say you’ll bring big brother back tonight? Why is he still missing when it’s so late, you lied to me!”

“You child, why would I do that? He’ll be home in less than two hours, he’s just going to see your sister-in-law first.”

It went silent all of a sudden, and Muyun didn’t continue the conversation.

At the same time, Wen Xi was brought in by Yunchuan.

“We’re back.”

Ruiqin and her husband looked over, smiling. “Xixi’s back as well, you’re right on time! Nanny Chen, get some soup for them.”

Wen Xi nodded politely, looking at everyone until she reached Muyun.

At that time, she was sitting in her chair and pulling a long face.

“Muyun, where are your manners?” Yunchuan spoke.

Muyun gritted her teeth and gripped her chopsticks, struggling for a while before walking over, not even looking at Wen Xi as she tried her best to say, “Oh, you’re here.”

Wen Xi didn’t reply.

Yunchuan’s voice got colder. “It’s your sister-in-law.”

Muyun bit her lip as her eyes grew redder. She raised her face and looked at Yunchuan slowly, sulking as she looked at him. “Bro, are you really getting married?”

“What are you talking about? The date is already set, of course, they’re getting married. Alright, let’s all go eat.” Ruiqin said.

Muyun, no longer able to keep her emotions in, put on an angry and sad face. “I’m not eating, I’m going to my room!”

With that, she left quickly.

Ruiqin smiled at Wen Xi. “Muyun doesn’t seem to be feeling well today. Let’s eat first.”

Wen Xi thought that Muyun was probably stabbing a voodoo doll of her right now.

She wasn’t worried whether or not Muyun had the heart to do bad things, it was whether she had the guts to do them.

And so, she wanted to force her opponent to lose her mind; to act on impulse, to the point where she would be guided by her anger alone.

She planned on dealing with the divorce and getting revenge for Weihai in one go. She didn’t want to waste any more time.

After eating, Yunchuan, before asking Wen Xi’s permission, asked for a guest room to be prepared.

In her past life, she was a pretty conservative girl, with her first kiss and the first time all happening on the night of her marriage. Under her insistence, Yunchuan had promised her that as well, and as such, Yunchuan was still keeping that promise, not forcing her to sleep in the same room.

In the past life, this what had made her fall in love with him. It was this false image he’d built.

However, she was awake now.

After leaving Yunchuan, she went to the garden and found Muyun, who had a small shovel in her hand as she destroyed some flowers, leaving a path of destruction.

Hearing something behind her, she turned back to see Wen Xi. Seeing her face that was prettier than her own made her even more agitated.

“Why are you here!”
