Chapter 200: That Woman Might Be in Luo Hai

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yuan Xuan’s mind became slightly impatient when he was unable to fend off the attack from Mu Chenyan’s pillow. He violently pressed Mu Chenyan and her pillow down against the bed while stubbornly refusing to let go.
Unable to vent her internal dissatisfaction, Mu Chenyan became so anxious that her face flushed while tears persistently streamed down her face. As she could not struggle free from Yuan Xuan, she could only sob while she remained underneath him.
She resembled a small wounded animal that used its little claws and fangs to retaliate against him.
Her current state caused Yuan Xuan to feel a strange sense of panic.
Although she was previously wrongly accused of being a murderer, her face had always remained indifferent during the numerous and repeated interrogations. She was so calm that it seemed like the matter did not concern her. Moreover, she had never sorrowfully cried tears of anguish.
When she encountered those vermin in the prison who beat her up, she endured the harm that they inflicted upon her with her exceptionally patient heart.
She also calmly retaliated when Feng Rao humiliated her during the banquet. Had she ever behaved so hysterically?
It looked like her heart was truly filled with resentment for him.
Yuan Xuan gradually understood it when he thought of this factor. It was not as if his Little Chenyan had not felt the pain. Rather, she had not seriously taken the people who hurt her to heart. Hence, they could not deeply hurt her because she automatically overlooked and disregarded insignificant people.
However, the same things did not apply to him in her mind.
The pain that he inflicted upon her could be likened to a stab. Furthermore, these stabs would ultimately lead to a violent death.
Yuan Xuan suddenly lowered his head to kiss the woman underneath his body. Despite her resistance, whimpers, and persistent tears, he did not want to explain too much. This was the only way for him to express his innermost feelings.
If Yuan Xuan knew that refusing to explain today would result in him narrowly losing Mu Chenyan in the future, he would definitely make a new decision. If he knew that walking alone was unlike two people carrying the burden together, he would not have buried everything at the bottom of his heart.
However, there was no use crying over spilled milk. (TN: Used an English idiom with a similar meaning instead of directly translating the Chinese saying.)

Mu Chenyan became completely indifferent towards her relationship with Yuan Xuan after she discovered this matter.
Since she could not win against Yuan Xuan, she came straight to the point and decided on a cold war. As she had initially disliked dealing with Yuan Xuan, she had found a suitable reason for it at this moment.
She might as well let it be as she was waiting for them to break up!
Yuan Xuan allowed her to do as she pleased this time instead of forcing her.
When they embraced each other and slept at night, he was additionally affectionate towards the woman in his arms but he did not go any further because he was afraid of upsetting her. Nonetheless, they respected each other as husband and wife during the day and went everywhere as a pair while acting as though nothing had happened between them in front of outsiders.
Mu Chenyan secretly laughed to herself. Her days were exactly like Wen Ya’s now. The men of the Yuan Family were truly toxic.
Yuan Xuan’s heart became less assured the more calmly Mu Chenyan acted. It seemed as though he had instantly lost his sense of direction despite being the one who had always led their days.
Third Young Master Yuan’s heart was clearly aware of how difficult these days were.
Despite being a married man, he spent practically every day living a life of abstinence as though he were a monk.
On the other hand, there were still differences between him and a monk because the latter would not have the temptation of women beside them. Hence, it would be fine as long as they could control themselves and their hearts. Conversely, he had to embrace his wife every day while looking at her expression before he did anything else.
Meanwhile, Mu Chenyan was determined to ignore him, much less allow him to touch her.
Unable to fall asleep in the middle of the night, Yuan Xuan could only get up and drink red wine.
Nights spent alone were always lonely while wine drank on one’s own was always bitter.
Thus, this crazed man turned his computer on and harassed both Wu Ze and Shao Yibai.
A vast place like Luo Hai could not contain his troubles!
He was obviously too afraid to mention his fight with Mu Chenyan to Wu Ze because that brat Wu Ze was still concerned about his wife. Would he not be giving him an opportunity if he allowed him to find out about this?
His wife was still more important than the glominess in his heart.
Wu Ze’s drowsy eyes were misted. He was dragged from his bed by Third Young Master Yuan right after celebrating New Year’s. Through the computer screen, the man held a glass of red wine and insisted on discussing business matters such as whether it would be suitable to dig wells and extract oil in Luo Hai’s recent weather. This was certainly not a wonderful thing.
“Third Young Master Yuan, I’m not even concerned about my family’s business. As for those geological reconnaissance terms that only interest old people like yourself, aren’t you preaching to deaf ears by telling me these things? ”
After being disturbed by Yuan Xuan for three nights in a row, Wu Ze could not stand it anymore. A faintly ominous look shrouded his handsome face before he yawned and deadpanned to Yuan Xuan who was on the other side of the screen.
“If you insist on telling me those business matters, I can only recite the latest revised constitutions and canonical texts in return. Come, let’s make each other suffer! ”
Hmph, Wu Ze had decided not to respect men like him who refused to sleep but chose to disturb him in the middle of the night despite having a wife who warmed his bed.
Yuan Xuan became unhappy. He was truly afraid that Wu Ze’s resplendent voice would really start reciting the constitutions and canonical texts.
“Terrible friend! Our friendship’s over!” The man finished his alcohol in one gulp and decided to ignore Wu Ze.
Yuan Xuan disconnected the video and pondered before he started a video call with Shao Yibai instead…
It was fortunate that the night life in Capital City was much livelier there than in Luo Hai. When Shao Yibai lifted his phone, the band was playing a popular Beatles’ song at a deafening volume in the background. Despite the corrupt environment, the ambiguous man’s face was unusually handsome.
Shao Yibai had always been direct. After being repeatedly harassed by Yuan Xuan, he bluntly exposed his true colors.
“Third Young Master Yuan, since you’ve recently been frequently sending me video call requests in the middle of the night, aside from issues with obtaining what you want, this definitely has to do with the beautiful young woman being unable to satisfy your desires!
“Tell me, what has Little Chenyan done to make you behave so abnormally recently? Hmm?” Shao Yibai’s tone was extremely relaxed and one could even hear a slightly malicious laugh if you listened closely.
Yuan Xuan’s dark figure sank into the chair while he shook the wine glass in his hand for awhile. It seemed as though his cold eyes were concealing something before his deep voice mocked, “Ridiculous! Why wouldn’t my desires be satisfied? ”
“Are they not?” Shao Yibai smiled to himself but continued to harbor ill intentions.
“I was only feeling sorry for an unmarried man like you who was home alone. That’s why I woke up in the middle of the night just to talk to yo u!”
It was undeniable that Yuan Xuan was still stubbornly defiant despite being rebuffed everywhere.
“Alright, I can only let you see what a life of luxury really means! You feel sorry for me because I don’t have a wife? Should a man of my caliber be worried about lacking a beautiful young woman?”
While he spoke, Shao Yibai spun his phone around in a circle. The dazzling and colorfully illuminated karaoke bar was filled with men and women, making it very lively.
Shao Yibai resembled a prince. He had a languid expression while his tall figure sank into a dark colored sofa which made him look rather relaxed but still bewitching. Yuan Xuan secretly cursed him and called him a demon.
Suddenly, a stirringly beautiful woman with wave-like curls beside him hugged Shao Yibai’s neck and delicately sighed, “Master Bai, who are you so happily speaking to? You shouldn’t just drink alone. Qianqian will have a glass with you, alright?”
Through the screen, Yuan Xuan could also feel that soft frame that was pressed against the flirtatious warmth on Shao Yibai’s body.
“Yes! You’ve finally thought it through?”
Yuan Xuan who had never seen a woman approach Shao Yibai now narrowed his eyes and watched as Shao Yibai finished the drink that “Qianqian” had passed him in one mouthful. He could not help but tease him, saying, “You little boy, have you finally decided to break your vow of abstinence?”
A faintly thoughtful smile flashed across Shao Yibai’s uniquely handsome face before he quietly laughed and said, “My staff have inquired about it and discovered that the woman might be in Luo Hai.”
