Chapter 82. I Want To Be Responsible For Her
Xi Xiaye’s gaze followed Shen Yue’s line of sight towards Mu Yuchen, yet she noticed that he remained calm and composed, standing neither servile nor overbearing. He simply allowed Shen Yue to stare, glare, and size him up.
“Are you Mu Yuchen? The grandson of those two old folks, Wang Hui and Mu Yinan?” A while after, Shen Yue’s aged and gloomy voice finally rang out, thickening the vaguely stifling and threatening vibe in the air quite a bit.
Xi Xiaye became even more nervous as she quickly went up and said, “Grandpa, this is our fault. We…”
“You’re at fault? What did you do wrong?” Shen Yue’s voice became even more stern. It was not at all like his usually loving, gentle self. She knew well that the matter this time had made him very upset. After some thought, she let go of Mu Yuchen’s sleeve and walked towards Shen Yue. “Grandpa, it’s our fault for getting married without informing you guys, but all of this was my idea…”
“Did I ask you? You stand aside. I’m asking him!” Shen Yue did not care and looked past Xi Xiaye, his sharp eyes falling onto Mu Yuchen again.
Mu Yuchen’s expression was calm. He did not bat an eyelid as he sized Shen Yue up in response. His vigor did not lose out to Shen Yue’s as he very coolly pulled Xi Xiaye over. Under Shen Yue’s blade-sharp threatening gaze, he pulled Xi Xiaye to sit down.
“This was rather sudden. We’ve already received our marriage certificate, and now we’re also a right and proper married couple. We don’t want to explain too much. Grandpa, if you’re unhappy, please come and talk to me. It has nothing to do with this silly one. I bewitched her into signing the marriage contract.”
Mu Yuchen was the kind of person who was not eloquent at explaining. Being in the business circle for a long time now, he cared more about the outcome instead of the process.
His tone was deep and calm while his pitch-black eyes were filled with sincerity and a reserved manner. With his graceful and gentle demeanor, his composure amidst the tense situation unexpectedly made Shen Yue feel like he did not know how to vent his fury.
