Mu Chenyan’s original group of friends were stunned when they heard that she had returned to Luo Hai with her family.
Yuan Tian had migrated overseas with Shen Muqiu, but Yuan Xuan still contacted her the immediately.
Unfortunately, Yuan Tian was forced to grumble at Mu Chenyan through a video call because she could not return due to Shen Muqiu’s unique status.
“I can’t believe that you left for several years. You broke up with my brother, not me. Why didn’t you secretly contact me? I missed you so much!”
Yuan Tian’s bulging belly could be seen through the screen, but she still resembled a pampered young girl.
Mu Chenyan had no idea how Shen Muqiu and Yuan Tian had previously gotten together. She could not figure out how Shen Muqiu managed to steal Yuan Xuan’s precious little sister from him either. Nonetheless, she was in awe of Shen Muqiu’s progress. Judging from her appearance, Yuan Tian was probably six or seven months pregnant.
“I missed you too, but you knew that I didn’t want Yuan Xuan to find me...”
Mu Chenyan’s heart was filled with sorrow when she remembered that period of time. She was forced to spend several years away from Yuan Xuan again. She felt nothing but regret when she realized her mistakes. She was truly an idiot.
Yuan Tian complained like a spoiled child while stuffing herself with food. “This baby has a bigger appetite than the previous one. My waist is so much bigger now!”
Mu Chenyan spat out her tea onto the floor. “The previous one?”
Yuan Tian chuckled. “Yes, my first child is already two years old. She’s a girl...”
When she said that, she panned the camera toward the nanny’s lap. Mu Chenyan turned green with envy when she saw the fair-skinned little girl.
Mu Chenyan felt deeply ashamed now.
She had been with Yuan Xuan for more than a decade, but Yan Muyu was their only child. On the contrary, that other girl had progressed rather quickly. She was about to become a mother for the second time very soon.
Shen Muqiu gave up his previous job when he left with Yuan Tian. He wiped every trace of the companies that he owned and gave himself a new identity. He merely commanded them from the background because he was fully dedicated to his wife and daughter now.
Now that Yuan Tian was pregnant again, the man had become prouder. His face was sterner when he accompanied his wife, but he was more handsome than before.
Yuan Xuan also looked at the screen and noticed that Yuan Tian’s young daughter was incredibly adorable. As her parents were both attractive, the child would definitely be good-looking as well. Yuan Tian was beaming. Meanwhile, Shen Muqiu was different now. Whenever he spoke, he would start his sentences with the words “my daughter”...
Yuan Xuan’s dream of having a little princess started appearing in his mind again.
Damn, this was encouraging him!
He wanted a daughter as well.
Mu Chenyan was forced to endure strenuous activities in bed again as this man began his quest.
Yuan Xuan was not worried about suffering from renal deficiency. As long as Mu Chenyan was not on her period, Yuan Xuan wanted nothing more than to ravish his wife every day...
Wu Ze was also stunned when he heard that Mu Chenyan had returned. The young man realized that it was impossible for Mu Chenyan to escape Yuan Xuan’s grasp despite running around in circles. Nonetheless, he was happy for the couple.
Wu Ze was the first person who witnessed the couple’s relationship start off as a miserable affair before it finished with a happy ending.
“I’ll treat you and Yuan Xuan to a meal one of these days. We should really meet up!” Wu Ze promised.
Yuan Xuan smiled but kept mum when he heard this. Mu Chenyan did not know that Yuan Xuan was hiding something behind this meaningful smile. Yuan Xuan had introduced Yan Pianran to Wu Ze and that young man was absolutely smitten with her now. He was busily pursuing her recently...
Mu Chenyan was relieved when the arrangements were made to enroll Yan Muyu in the best private preschool in Luo Hai. She sent her resume to Luo Hai’s criminal investigation unit upon realizing that she should do something as well.
She was not specifically trained for this job as it was in a completely different sector. Nonetheless, she had studied under Professor Shen who was considered a famous individual in the local criminal investigation field. The forensic department enthusiastically accepted job applications as there were only a few people in Luo Hai’s public security system who had such a background. Several branches had even gotten into heated arguments when they competed with each other for candidates.
In the end, Mu Chenyan decided to join a sector of the forensic department that was directly connected to the three major crimes departments.
Mu Chenyan kept a low profile like before when she went to report for duty. She wore simple casual clothes and tied her hair in a ponytail to look fresh and natural.
The major crimes department was still the same. The staff worked systematically under Wu Huai’s leadership. Nonetheless, they were rather excited when Mu Chenyan arrived. They gathered around her and chatted enthusiastically.
The atmosphere affected Mu Chenyan and put her in a good mood. Everything looked the same, but the one difference was that Su Qingcheng was no longer in Luo Hai.
Frankly, this was not surprising. How could she remain in Luo Hai when Shao Yibai refused to rest until she married him?
Mu Chenyan was almost as skilled at her new job as before. She had a legitimate reason to help solve cases as she was actually employed by the forensic department now.
However, there was a difference between forensics and criminal investigation. Mu Chenyan mainly participated by providing some evidence and directing the inferences to help solve these cases.
The weather cooled down three months after they returned to Luo Hai. Suddenly, Yuan Xuan brought up their wedding plans again.
“Now that you have a steady job, do you also think that we should have our wedding in spring next year?” Yuan Xuan asked Mu Chenyan as he watched Yan Muyu eat his breakfast.
“Big Xuan’zi, what’s a ‘wedding’?” Little Yan Muyu’s big watery eyes blinked as he asked.
“Muyu, how many times have I told you not to call your father ‘Big Xuan’zi’?”
Mu Chenyan’s son truly left her speechless. She glared at Yuan Xuan and quietly rebuked him, saying, “You should discipline him too. You’re too lenient. See what he’s become?”
A gleeful expression appeared on the dashing Big Xuan’zi’s face. He ruffled his son’s hair with his large hands. “It doesn’t matter what he calls me because it’s just a form of address. He can call me Big Xuan’zi because it doesn’t change the fact that he’s my son!”
“That’s right! You’ve always said that I resemble Big Xuan’zi very much when he was a child. He’s still my father even if I don’t call him that!”
Yan Muyu’s new father had successfully won him over. The child hugged his new father’s upper thigh tightly.
Mu Chenyan was so annoyed at Yuan Xuan that she kept mum. She could not look directly at the little boy and “big boy” who were echoing each other.
As Yan Muyu had yet to comprehend the idea of a wedding despite already attending one, Big Xuan’zi whisked him away to make preparations for the event. Meanwhile, Mu Chenyan became an outsider.
“Mom, Dad and I picked out a wedding dress for you today. It seems really tiring to be a groom because there are so many things to do. I’d rather be a bride because all I have to do is eat, wander around, and go to work every day...”
Yan Muyu was clearly exhausted because his father took him to various places and made him do numerous things. This would definitely exhaust a child who was only slightly over three years old.
“Mom, can I be a bride when I grow up? I don’t want to be a groom because it’s too tiring!”
Mu Chenyan was amused when the little boy kept sighing after that. She ruffled her son’s hair and smiled, saying, “You can’t be a bride, but your little sister can when she grows up.”
“Little sister? What little sister?” Yan Muyu picked up on the key phrase. Suddenly, his big eyes sparkled as he looked at Mu Chenyan.
Mu Chenyan affectionately explained, “Your little sister is in your mom’s tummy.”
“Dad, something is wrong! Hurry up, dad! Come here quickly!”
Yan Muyu loudly exclaimed when he heard that. He was terribly afraid.
Mu Chenyan never expected that her son to react this way. The little boy’s expression changed, and he shrieked moments after his mother shared this secret with him.
