The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 103 - Splashed All Over Her Face (1)

The next afternoon, the sun was shining brightly high up in the sky.

Xi Xiaye planned to stay at home and continue working on the South River project when suddenly she received a phone call. After giving it thorough consideration, she stopped her work on hand and went out.

The Cayenne soared through the cold wind and surged through fallen leaves as the car headed towards the busy commercial area of the city and parked in front of a rustic cafe.

Xi Xiaye wore a black windbreaker. She let her hair down and pushing a pair of large sunglasses on top of her head, she opened the door and got down. She locked the car and headed into the cafe.

“Miss, do you have a reservation?” A waitress went up to her as Xi Xiaye stepped into the cafe.

Xi Xiaye nodded and replied, “Table 15.”

The waitress smiled. “You must be Ms. Xi Xiaye, aren’t you? Ms. Xi has been waiting for you! Please follow me!”

Xi Xiaye did not say anything. She followed the waitress and went past a huge lounge. Soon, they arrived at a quiet corner.

“Sis, you’re here!”

When she arrived, Xi Xinyi stood up with a smile. Her eyes were filled with genuine joy as she went up to Xi Xiaye to hold her arms, but Xi Xiaye’s icy cold aura forced her back. She was stunned for a moment and bit on her lip before sitting back down with a pained expression.

Xi Xiaye was observing Xi Xinyi carefully.

Dressed in a white spring outfit with beautiful, wavy blonde hair over her shoulders, she had put some light makeup on which made her look gentle and charming. She was the ideal definition of a cute little girl. It was an interesting sight to watch her with the hidden pain in her eyes.

Xi Xiaye’s expression seemed calm as ever without revealing an ounce of her emotions. She sat down opposite Xi Xinyi.

“Do you want anything to drink?” The waitress asked.

“Nope, I’m fine,” Xi Xiaye replied indifferently, but her gaze was fixed onto the frail-looking Xi Xinyi.

The waitress somewhat felt the odd tension, but she did not say much and quickly left.

“Sis, I thought you’d never come. I’m really thrilled that you came!” Xi Xinyi smiled at Xi Xiaye, her smile sweet and innocent like that of a holy angel. It seemed so pure and beautiful that it could make anyone who saw her feel a need to protect that smile.

Xi Xiaye grinned coldly. Under her dark sunglasses were a pair of watchful eyes. Her voice sounded calm. “Why shouldn’t I come? Do you think I’m silly like my mother? Where’s the stuff?”

“Sis, Mother and Grandmother didn’t do it on purpose. It’s just that Yueying is in big trouble and we can only save it by doing that. You know Yueying is really important to Mother and Grandmother. They could never take it if they had to witness the downfall of Yueying! Can’t you try to be more considerate about their feelings?”

Xi Xinyi grabbed Xi Xiaye’s hand on the table. “I really have no intention of fighting with you to gain anything. Our parents’ issues belong to them. Can’t we let it go and face our future together?”

“Future? Then, tell me what I am tomorrow. Will I become the lover of Qi Kai’s master and treat myself as a bargaining chip? Or will I give you and Han Yifeng my wishes with a big smile on my face, and sacrifice everything of my own for the Xi family, for Yueying, for you? Like what my mother did back then?”

Xi Xiaye laughed coldly at Xi Xinyi, her voice devoid of any temperature. “If you were in my shoes, would you be willing to do it? Didn’t you say that you want to compensate me and you’d be willing to do anything to get my forgiveness?”

“Yes! Sis, if you can let go of the past grudges, I’d do anything!” Xi Xinyi was determined.

The smile on her face grew wider. Xi Xiaye finally took her sunglasses off and looked at Xi Xinyi with her icy cold eyes. “Good, then I want you to marry Qi Kai’s master and declare that you’ll give up the right the inherit Yueying. Then, I’ll forgive you. How does that sound?”

Xi Xinyi was stunned as she heard Xi Xiaye’s words. She stared at Xi Xiaye with her large doe eyes as she clenched her fists. The tears in her eyes were on the verge of falling.

Xi Xiaye laughed when she saw Xi Xinyi’s reaction and she mocked her, “See, even someone as kind and gentle as you can’t accept it. How could someone as evil as me accept the terms?”

Xi Xinyi’s expression changed and she bit her lip as sadness shrouded her face. “You just want to take revenge on me, don’t you? Sis, Yifeng doesn’t love you. Don’t you understand? He’d never love you even if I let him go. Why can’t you just wake up?”

Xi Xiaye smiled. “You’re mistaken. I’m wide awake now. Didn’t you guys label me as an evil and stubborn person? I just think that I should do something deserving of that label. If I can see you guys being unhappy, then I might be able to feel better.”

“Sis! Why did you become like this?” Xi Xinyi looked at Xi Xiaye in despair as more tears welled up in her eyes.

“Why?” Xi Xiaye mumbled quietly, her eyes suddenly turning cold. She stood up and walked to her to say quietly beside her ear, “Xi Xinyi, now it’s just the both of us. You don’t have to put up an act anymore. When you were 16, I saw you use the lighter to burn the clothes in your wardrobe, including the expensive dress Grandmother bought for you from France… I remember that was your favorite outfit and you always felt it was too precious to wear out. Then, many things happened that summer, including me getting forced out of military school. Do you remember that? Do you want me to tell you one by one and find out exactly how much I remember?”

Xi Xinyi’s face turned pale and her eyes were filled with doubts. “Sis… I don’t know what you’re talking about…”

“Actually, there’s something you really impress me with,” Xi Xiaye paused, then she continued, “You’re a born actress. It’d be unfair not to award you with an Oscar for Best Actress!”
