Chapter 46 : Moving To Maple Residence (1)
Xi Xiaye lowered her gaze after staring at him in the eyes. “Don’t you have to work? It’s almost time for the morning meeting. Ah Mo can send me back to the apartment to pick up the stuff later.”
The sun was already up outside, so she knew that it was not early anymore.
The man ran his fingers through her messy hair almost intimately. “I delayed it till tomorrow. We’ll settle our matters today. Put on a coat. We’ll leave if there are no problems at the final checkup later.”
He then took the coat he had draped on the chair and covered her.
Xi Xiaye could not argue with him, so she just nodded.
There were a lot of people in the hospital in the morning time. It was nearly noon when the checkup was done.
After lunch, the doctor came over and told Xi Xiaye that she could go home.
“Be careful that your wound doesn’t get into contact with water, and remember to reapply the medicine frequently. Rest well for two weeks and you’ll be fine. Remember not to do extreme sports to avoid the wound from opening up,” advised the doctor as she closed her medical records.
“I got it. Thank you!” Xi Xiaye thanked him in a hoarse voice.
“Let’s go back to Maple Residence immediately then.” Mu Yuchen nodded slightly to the doctor but his eyes were gazing at Xi Xiaye. Ah Mo who had gone to settle the discharge procedure had returned as well.
Xi Xiaye carefully got out of bed. “You’re done with the discharge procedure so quickly!”
“Mmm, can you walk on your own?”
Mu Yuchen kept all the medicine on the table and glanced at her.
Xi Xiaye nodded.”I’m fine.”
Ah Mo quickly went over to help Mu Yuchen with the packing. “Master, you should hold Director Xi. I’ll take care of these.”
He then put all the medicine into the bag as quickly as possible.
The weather was great outside. The warm sun greeted them the moment they walked out of the hospital. Xi Xiaye almost could not open her eyes. She squinted as she took a glance at the warm sun, suddenly feeling the dark mist in her mind thin out a lot.
After a while, Ah Mo drove the car over and stopped beside them.
“Get in the car.”
Mu Yuchen opened the door and signalled to Xi Xiaye to get in while she was looking around blankly.
The car manoeuvred through the busy roads and quickly headed towards Maple Residence.
At Maple Residence, Sis Wang received a call from Ah Mo and got word that the Master was bringing the Lady home, so she worked throughout the morning. Not only did she bring tons of clothes and shoes, but she even redecorated the yard. She really gave it her all.
The car entered the Grand Waves Villa area, and after passing through some winding roads, they stopped in front of Maple Residence.
“Master and Direc... Missus... are home!”
Mu Yuchen came out of the car, then he extended his large hand to Xi Xiaye who was still in the car.
Xi Xiaye was dazed. She went silent as she looked at the large hand that appeared in front of her. Then, she placed her cold hand in the palm and the large hand clenched hers. Both the cold hands coming in contact with each other gradually produced some warmth.
The entrance door slowly opened. Sis Wang and three maids stood right there in a row. They politely bowed and greeted when they saw Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye. “Hello, Master. Hello, Lady! Lady, welcome to Maple Residence!”
The few of them then opened up the way to a straight and clean cemented path from the entrance right up to the door of the villa. It was just like what she saw the last time. However, there was something different this time. Huge blooming roses were draped on the street lamps along the side as long stripes of lace were waving along with the gentle breeze. She also heard calming music accompanied by the trickling of water.
Xi Xiaye turned towards the direction of the music and saw a musical fountain hidden within the lawn ringing out joyously as the cool wind blew. There was also an indescribable fragrance in the air.
Xi Xiaye’s heart warmed when she saw the charmed expression of Sis Wang’s group. She went towards one of the street lamps after some thought and cupped the rose on it to sniff it. She smiled and waved the flower in her hands as she looked at the man before her.
“Thank you for your welcoming ceremony, Mr. Mu!”
Mu Yuchen raised his eyebrows, then he walked over. “I’m glad that you like it. They prepared all this for a long time. Let’s get inside. It’s cold out here.”
Xi Xiaye nodded before she shot Sis Wang’s group a smile of gratitude, and they returned her the widest smiles on their faces.
Following Mu Yuchen’s lead, Xi Xiaye went into the living room and sat down on the sofa. Sis Wang then served them some water.
Mu Yuchen took a glass and handed it to Xi Xiaye.
“Don’t worry, Lady. We’ll be careful with your wound. Also, your clothes and other items have been prepared. Have a look at what else you need and just let us know what’s missing.”
Sis Wang smiled gently. They stayed at an apartment near the Grand Waves Villa area, it was pretty convenient to summon them over.
The Master was someone who liked tranquility. He did not want anyone walking around his private property, so they usually would not go over except for the weekly cleaning or when the Master summoned them.
Xi Xiaye nodded, “Mmm, thank you, Sis Wang.”
“You’re welcome, Lady. Master, we’ll head back for now if there’s nothing else. Please let us know if there’s anything you need.”
Sis Wang left quietly after Mu Yuchen nodded.
The villa fell into a silent state. The newlyweds just sat there quietly and no one said anything, yet the atmosphere was not awkward at all. Instead, it was pretty peaceful.
“I want to go back to my apartment later. My things and the company documents are still there,” Xi Xiaye said as the man lay on the sofa and leisurely read a magazine.
