Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten - Chapter 354

Chapter 354: Bigger Game At Play!

In the dining room of the Mu family’s residence, Mu Feichi filled a bowl with chicken congee and pushed it in front of Yun Xi, along with a plate of dim sum crystal shrimp dumplings.

“Eat something. Dim sum crystal shrimp dumplings are your reward. You can only eat them after drinking your congee.”

“…” Yun Xi raised her head, looking baffled, and she seemed amused as she looked at the serious-looking man sitting opposite her.

He was coaxing her just like one would coax a child. He was treating her as if she was a child.

“Don’t just sit there staring at the food. Hurry up and eat it all. It’s good for you.”

“…” After having had such a restless night, she was really hungry. Yun Xi didn’t argue with him, and, little by little, she drank all the congee in the bowl.

The chef had probably gotten up early in the morning to make the congee. It was smooth and flavorful. Its savory richness was really appetizing.

Outside, the butler answered a call from the sentry post. Then he came into the dining room and spoke to Mu Feichi.

“Young master, the Eldest Heir is at the sentry post right now, saying that…he wants to see Miss Yun.”

Mu Feichi raised his eyes and then turned his head and glanced at Yun Xi. His piercing gaze swept across her face. He maintained a poker face, which made him appear mysterious and unpredictable.

“What are you looking at me for? This is your territory! You can do whatever you want in your territory. If you find it inconvenient, let him wait. I’ll go down after breakfast and see him.”

Tianyu Mountain was his territory, and ordinary people couldn’t even go up the mountain. Even if Mu Chongli wanted to come here, he needed to make preparations in advance.

Obviously unhappy at the prospect of Chen Yichen coming to his home, Mu Feichi snorted angrily. Then he raised his head and ordered the butler, “Let Qi Yuan go down to greet him.”

“Yes, sir,” the butler answered.

Yun Xi raised her head, looking confused. “Since the Eldest Heir has come here, could it be that he already knows what happened yesterday?”

Mu Feichi had had his eyes lowered as he ate breakfast, but his face appeared somewhat sullen.

They were the only two people in the dining room, and it was so quiet that they could hear each other’s breathing.

The haughty Mu Feichi didn’t even talk while eating due to his well-cultivated manners.

His every move and gesture gave off a suave and elegant aura.

After a while, he said, “I have already told you that the Eldest Heir of Jingdu isn’t as simple as you may think.”

He seemed gentle and harmless, but, in reality, he was much more calculating than anyone else.

The fact that the Chen family’s old man had handed over control of the Chen family to Chen Yichen when he was only 20 years old showed that he wasn’t a simple character.

Coupled with his experience in the business world over the past few years, his control over this fledgling family could no longer be underestimated.

Yun Xi nodded. “I know. You are right.”

Having become a celebrity in the business world, the Eldest Heir’s methods and abilities were far beyond those of ordinary people.

“What do you know?” With hostility in his cold eyes, Mu Feichi raised his head and glared at her. “You better stay away from him in the future.”

“But why?” Yun Xi looked at him in bewilderment. That was simply impossible. She had so many ties to his family.

The Old Madame aside, if she married into the Jiang family, she would still have relatives within the Chen family.

“There are no buts!” Putting down the spoon, Mu Feichi stood up and said in a deep voice, “Come out only after you finish your breakfast!”

At the end of this conversation, he abandoned her in the dining room and took Great White to the living room.

With a dumbfounded expression, Yun Xi watched him leave. The dining room felt like a battlefield.

Young Marshal Mu, what kind of gunpowder has lit your fuse?

Or was it that Chen Yichen had discovered too many things that he shouldn’t know, and that had made Mu Feichi unhappy?

That couldn’t be!

The Han family’s dealings with Crocodile could have been easily discovered by anyone with a little bit of initiative. For the sake of the stability of the power dynamic, the four major clans would probably have turned a blind eye to it.

He was unhappy because Chen Yichen had come to his territory to find her?

Alas, she should’ve gone down the mountain to meet him.
