The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife Chapter 1223 - Threat 1

1223 Threat 1
In the end, Xi Xiaye let out a cough as both of them were speechless. They started laughing.
“Mu Yuchen, you’re always setting traps for me to fall into!” She glared at him.
He laughed instead and wrapped his arm around her shoulders. “I didn’t mean to, but you jumped into one yourself. While your EQ is getting better, your IQ needs some work.”
“That’s your fault, isn’t it? There’s a saying that one pregnancy can make a woman a fool for three years…I’m getting more and more forgetful nowadays,” she complained unhappily.
“It’s my fault, alright?” He smiled and admitted to it. “Then, why do you insist on having another child?”
“Because you want a daughter, don’t you?”
“What if we get another son?”
He was surprised by her reason.
“We’ll have another one then…”
“Master Mu…”
…
On a bright morning in City Z, Mu Lingshi tried to keep herself busy. She hardly paid any attention to Gu Qiwu and Doris anymore.
Ah Mo had been staying by her side and would always accompany her whenever he was not at work. Ah Quan also remained near her at all times though it made Mu Lingshi feel restricted. She tried to get a chance to go out.
Mu Lingshi planned to head over to the Imperial Sky Entertainment City, but she could not avoid whatever was coming. She knew that this day would arrive sooner or later anyway. Therefore, she did not feel surprised at all when she saw Doris appear before her.
There was a newly opened coffee shop, but only two customers were inside. They were sitting on the second floor by the window.
Mu Lingshi could see the beautiful scene outside from where she sat.
The two of them just sat there without talking.
Mu Lingshi quietly drank some water while Doris was swirling her coffee around, silently observing Mu Lingshi.
Mu Lingshi was wearing a pair of huge sunglasses, but the scar on her face was still uncovered. Doris hardly had any impression of Mu Lingshi, but upon seeing her right now, she was reminded about how Mu Zi looked like in her prime.
Mu Zi looked nearly identical, and her personality felt familiar as well.
Doris never learned about Mu Zi’s relationship with Gu Qiwu back then, or else…
Gu Qiwu constantly told her he loved her, just as he had tried very hard to show everyone how much he loved her, but he truly only loved himself!
He had set up this trap a long time ago. This marriage had been built upon injustice and a pile of lies. How could a prideful woman like Doris stand to be fooled by a man?
Doris and Gu Qiwu’s marriage had not been destroyed. The court had already sent the summons. Not only Doris did not get anything, but instead…
Doris suddenly felt a surge of anger in her chest, but she tried her best to suppress it. She did not make a sound while Mu Lingshi stayed quiet and allowed her to stare at her.
Mu Lingshi was not sure how to feel towards Doris. The people at fault here were Gu Qiwu and Mu Zi. If Doris really had no idea about them, perhaps she was just a plain victim herself, but if those matters were related to her, then things would be different.
“It seems like you’re not surprised by my visit.” Doris broke the silence after some time. She was carefully looking at Mu Lingshi’s tiny face, then she averted her gaze and looked at her baby bump.
“Are you disappointed that I’m not surprised?” Mu Lingshi replied coldly.
Her words harbored no emotions at all, and Mu Lingshi could somehow figure Doris’s purpose of meeting her. It was probably about Gu Qiwu.
Naturally, Mu Lingshi knew about Gu Qiwu and Doris.
“Do you know why I’m here today?” Doris let out a cold laugh as she tidied her hair.
“You shouldn’t come to me if you’re here about Gu Qiwu. There’s nothing between the two of us, and I don’t want anything to happen between me and the Gu family.” Mu Lingshi was straightforward.
“But you don’t have a choice, do you?” Doris smiled. “I know Gu Qiwu has been paying a lot of attention to you, and you should know that we’re divorced. Don’t you have any thoughts about it? My daughter, Gu Lingsha, isn’t your sister…”
“I’m not related to any of you, so I’m going to keep saying the same answer no matter how many times you ask me. If you’re worried that I might be fighting for something, you should go and see Gu Qiwu instead of me!”
“Even if you’re unwilling to admit it, it’s the undeniable truth! I had no idea about your mother’s relationship with Gu Qiwu back then, or else, I wouldn’t have left it undiscovered until now!” Doris’s anger was beginning to show.
“I don’t want to know anything about the three of you, and you don’t have to try provoking me either because I’m not interested at all. Moreover, I think you should be more concerned about Gu Lingsha. I heard she’s in quite some trouble right now.”
Doris’s expression darkened slightly as she stared deep into Mu Lingshi’s eyes.
