Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 811 Untrustful

　　Hyson patted Zhai Yanjun's shoulder, "You have a lot to explain, Captain! Best of luck with that!" Then he slipped away and shouted, "Yanyan, I'm hungry! Hungry! Hungry! Hungry!"

　　"I heard that!" came Mu Chenyan's helpless voice. "Didn't you eat with Elle?"

　　"I did but everything is digested by now," replied Hyson. "Give me something to eat. There is a marathon going on in my tummy."

　　"And who is participating in that marathon?" asked Xiang Weimin.

　　"Rats, cats, chickens... Everyone is running."

　　"Even chickens?" asked Xiang Weimin. 

　　"It's my tummy," replied Hyson. "Anything is possible in there."

　　"Yes, just like anything is possible with you," said Xiang Wai.

　　"Wow! Major, you figured me out. Have you been paying so much attention to me? Why? Are you interested in me?"

　　"Ha! What if I am?" retorted Xiang Wai.

　　"Then I can only say, sorry! You're not my type!"

　　All of them walked toward the dining room leaving Zhai Kuijun facing Yue Yue and Zhai Yanjun. While Hyson should have been there since it involved him but that guy didn't think it was necessary for him to sit down to catch up with his father. Besides, he was certain his mother wasn't gonna disclose his identity to Zhai Kuijun. Not like he wanted her to.

　　He was happy being Yue Yue's son. 

　　He didn't want to add a father into the picture after all these years to complicate things.

　　"Yanjun!" Zhai Kuijun called out again. "Shouldn't you be saying something right now?"

　　"What?" asked Zhai Yanjun playing dumb for now.

　　"Really? Are you gonna play like this now?"

　　Zhai Yanjun looked at Yue Yue and sighed, "Ayi asked me to keep it a secret that I met her. I also didn't think it was important to share this with anyone. So, I just kept it to myself."

　　Zhai Kuijun contained to stare at his son and then he stared at Yue Yue.

　　"You both have quite a relationship to keep secrets now," commented Zhai Kuijun. "Yue, Fai is really your son?"

　　Yue Yue nodded her head again. Didn't they just confirm it already?

　　'Why? Is it that hard to believe?'

　　Zhai Kuijun shook his head, "No, it's just that he isn't like you at all. When I first met him in Weimin's ward I was still wondering who were his parents. Such a bright and lively child was something really special so I was really curious about his parents. I didn't think you'd be his mother."

　　Yue Yue wasn't surprised to hear that. She already knew her son wasn't like her. In fact, Hyson was mostly like Mu Chenyan and Raelle. And only a part of his silliness came from his own father. As for her, maybe her singing talent was gifted to him. Apart from that, she didn't think Hyson got anything from her.

　　"He is carrying on your dream," commented Zhai Kuijun.

　　Yue Yue smiled proudly and nodded her head, 'Yes, he is. I never had the confidence to stand before people but he does. So, I want the whole world to know how amazing my son is.'

　　Zhai Yanjun smiled bitterly when he heard that. It wasn't his first time seeing how his Aunt Yue was always proud of her son. Even though she loved to nag him and discipline him. But no one could be prouder than her as well.

　　She was just like those parents who won't compliment their kids on the face but would keep praising their kids behind their backs.

　　"And you," Zhai Kuijun looked at his son. "Don't think I'll let you go. You betrayed your own father."

　　Zhai Yanjun shrugged his shoulders, "Technically, I didn't. You never asked me to tell you if I find Ayi. I found her on my own and so what if I wanted to keep her to myself? Do you want me to bring her back to face the Yue family? For what?"

　　Zhai Kuijun stopped talking. He couldn't understand his son. If he was in Zhai Yanjun's place, even he wouldn't want to ruin the peace of Yue Yue's life. She had built her own life out here. How could he force her to face the past that only hurt her?

　　*Ring*

　　Suddenly, the phone in Yue Yue's hands rang. The phone belonged to Mu Chenyan and she had yet to give it back to her. She completely forgot about it. She looked at the caller id and raised her brow. What was 'Sharp tooth'? What kind of a caller id was that? She really couldn't understand her best friend.

　　"You're not gonna take that?" asked Zhai Yanjun.

　　'The phone isn't mine.'

　　"Don't just stand there," came Mu Chenyan's voice. "Let's all have some supper."

　　Yue Yue shook her phone and Mu Chenyan ran over to take it. She accepted the call and a loud voice came from the speaker, "Target is locked. Waiting for instructions."

　　Suddenly, there was silence around her and Mu Chenyan looked at the three people around her with a smile. She should have lowered the voice of her phone. Or maybe she should ask this stupid 'Sharp tooth' to talk in a normal voice. 

　　"Just keep your eyes open for now," said Mu Chenyan and hung up the phone.

　　'What was that?'

　　"What was what?" asked Mu Chenyan.

　　'Playing dumb?'

　　"What are you saying? How can I play dumb when I am dumb?" was Mu Chenyan's response to Yue Yue.

　　'Should I tell Elder Xiang?'

　　Mu Chenyan chuckled, "Sure. Go ahead."

　　Yue Yue narrowed her eyes suspiciously at Mu Chenyan but Mu Chenyan wasn't flustered. Whether she had something to hide or not was really not clear to Yue Yue. Damnit! Why was it so difficult to read all these people around her? Only she was the simplest rabbit stuck between these wolves. That's it! That's the truth! Even her innocent little son wasn't all that innocent. Only she was the oblivious party here.

　　Mu Chenyan held her arm and dragged her, "It's really nothing. Do you think I'm gonna murder someone or what? We live in a lawful society. Don't worry. I'm a good person."

　　Yue Yue nodded her head perfunctorily, not believing a word of Mu Chenyan. Even Mu Chenyan felt helpless about that. Was she that untrustful?
