Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten

Yun Xi asked Zhao Yumo for the name and address of the doctor who had been treating her grandfather. Then she repeated her advice about remaining calm and carrying on as usual.

Zhao Yumo’s parents had been cowardly and incompetent, so there was no point in trying to get them to do anything about this matter. The only thing the girls could do was to start with the doctor.

First of all and most important, they had to get him to change the old man’s medicine. If her grandfather continued taking all these pills, he was going to die sooner rather than later.

Thinking of the emaciated old man in the dark, airless bedroom, Yun Xi’s face got sullen. She could not be patient.

“I’m going right now to take care of things with that doctor. You must remember what I told you. Otherwise, I won’t be able to help you.”

“How are you going to deal with him? Are you going to scare him?”

“Don’t worry about it. Trust me. Just have the driver take me now.”

“Okay.”

The driver took Yun Xi straight to the gate of the villa complex. Yun Xi got out of the car and went straight to the sentry post. She asked the guard at the post and learned that Mu Feichi had gone to negotiate with his business partners today, and he hadn’t returned yet.

Yun Xi didn’t want to miss this opportunity, so she decided to wait at the sentry post. She called home to tell the housekeeper that she was eating at the Chen family’s house.

The guard saw her waiting outside and brought her a chair.

Yun Xi sat in the chair, and, using the light from the sentry post, she read a book while she was waiting.

At dinnertime, the guard at the sentry post changed shifts, and they specially brought dinner for her.

These wonderful men, ever since the video of her venturing out into Tianyu Mountain alone had circulated throughout all the sentry posts on the mountain, had begun to respect her sincerely from the bottom of their hearts.

Respecting opponents who were stronger than oneself was also one of their guidelines.

After seven o’clock, it got dark, and various insects started chirping.

Yun Xi suddenly felt such admiration for these guards who patrolled the mountains. Throughout the long nights, they had to endure loneliness as well as solitude.

This was their job’s responsibility, but she still felt that people who were so dedicated to their jobs were always worthy of respect and love.

She didn’t know how long she’d been waiting, but when the sound of a car finally sounded on the mountain road, Yun Xi raised her head and looked at the car arriving.

In the black Bentley, from a distance, Qi Yuan saw a figure sitting under the light. He quickly woke up Young Marshal Mu, who had drunk a lot of wine.

“Young Marshal Mu, it’s Miss Yun!”

When he heard these three words, Mu Feichi opened his eyes immediately. Then he frowned as he looked at the figure sitting at the sentry post.

He had the feeling that she had been waiting for quite a long time, but at least those rough guys had remembered to bring a chair for her.

“Stop!” Mu Feichi called out in a hoarse voice. He then drank a few sips of water and got out of the car, feeling completely sober now.

“Young Marshal Mu!” Yun Xi stood up and ran over.

Mu Feichi leaned on his car door and stared at the little figure running toward him with a faraway expression in his eyes.

Perhaps because he had drunk a little too much wine, there was an uncharacteristic gentleness in his laughing dark eyes.

“What? Do you miss me this much after not seeing me for one whole day?”

“…” His teasing made Yun Xi stop short. Raising her head angrily, she could smell the faint scent of alcohol on his body.

“You’ve been drinking?”

“Yep, but I’m not drunk enough to talk nonsense, and I recognize who you are clearly.”

So he’d been joking just now?

Yun Xi ignored his silly insinuations. Clutching her sleeve, she agonized over how much she should tell him.

Seeing her flustered, Mu Feichi raised his hand and flicked her forehead. “What are you thinking about? If you want to lay hands on me while I’m drunk, then I can cooperate with you and pretend to be drunk. It’s not difficult.”

Yun Xi raised her head and fired back unceremoniously, “I’m uninterested in human flesh disinfected with alcohol.”

Mu Feichi smiled. “Then what did you want to do after waiting for me all night? Why didn’t you have someone call me?”

If he’d known his little darling was waiting in the cold wind, how would he have ever had any intention of drinking and socializing with the guys?

Yun Xi raised her head, and her fiery eyes gleamed brightly under the light.

“If you aren’t drunk, then I’ll take you to a fight. Wanna go?”

“I’ll go! How many helpers do you want?”

Mu Feichi didn’t ask why she had to fight. It must be no small matter to make her wait so anxiously.

“Qi Yuan is enough. I just want you to beat up some guy so hard that even his own mother wouldn’t recognize him!”

“Okay, let’s go! Get in the car!”
