Hidden Marriage: Spoiled by the Imperial Commander
Chapter 517: Trouble Comes Again!
CHAPTER 517: CHAPTER 517: TROUBLE COMES AGAIN!
"I’m glad you think that way," Mu Huaner breathed a sigh of relief, asking, "So, what do you need my help with?"
"I want little aunt to accompany me to visit Brother Ah Lie and see Qianyi. There might still be some misunderstandings between us due to what happened last time at the clubhouse. I’d like to explain things to her in person, so she won’t misunderstand me and Brother Ah Lie in the future."
"But that’s all in the past now," Mu Huaner said.
"Even though it’s in the past, Qianyi must still be feeling uneasy, especially since Brother Ah Lie and I were once engaged.
I study medicine, and I know that pregnant women can be prone to overthinking during and immediately after pregnancy.
So I think it’s still necessary to explain things to her in person, to make my stance clear, and to help her feel more at ease," Ning Nuan said.
After thinking it over, Mu Huaner nodded and agreed, "You make a good point, but it might not be appropriate for me to go with you, considering she has quite an issue with me."
"But in the end, you are family. Doesn’t little aunt want to reconcile with her? Qianyi is a reasonable person. If we go with sincerity, she should be able to accept it. If I go alone and Brother Ah Lie isn’t there, I’m afraid I won’t even be able to get through the door."
"Alright, let’s go then," Mu Huaner agreed.
She did indeed want to improve her relationship with Yan Qianyi, even though she had proven her innocence, there were still some barriers between them.
She had been wanting to visit Yan Qianyi, but felt somewhat embarrassed to do so.
After all, she had wronged Yan Qianyi in the past.
Ning Nuan smiled happily, "Then let’s take my car. I bought a lot of gifts and left them in the car."
Mu Huaner suggested, "Drop me off at the mall first. I want to bring some gifts too."
"There’s no need, I know little aunt has been busy lately, and I’ve already prepared your share. Let’s go earlier, we don’t want to waste time. Qianyi, being pregnant, might want to take a nap after lunch."
"Nuannuan is so thoughtful; I knew I wasn’t wrong to dote on you," Mu Huaner expressed her contentment.
Ning Nuan affectionately linked arms with Mu Huaner.
"Every time little aunt took me to the Nangong family, you always prepared the gifts for me first. I learned this from you."
"Nuannuan, you’re such a sweet and smart girl, you’ll definitely find a man who will cherish you in the future."
"I’ll need little aunt to help me screen them."
Mu Huaner laughed joyfully, "Alright, alright, I’ll start looking for you tomorrow."
The two set off in the car jesting and laughing, arriving at Mu Yunlie’s home.
After getting out of the car, Ning Nuan took two bags from the trunk and handed them to Mu Huaner, "Little aunt, take these. This is Bird’s Nest; it’s very suitable for Qianyi to eat during pregnancy."
Mu Huaner received them, "You’ve thought of everything. I had no idea what kind of gift was appropriate for a pregnant woman. Last time I brought her a handbag and a necklace, I don’t even know if she liked them, but what you’ve chosen is more practical."
"Handbags and necklaces are something any girl would like," Ning Nuan said as she took out the remaining gifts. "Let’s go."
They entered the courtyard and approached the front door.
Mu Huaner was about to unlock the door but stopped and instead rang the doorbell.
Ning Nuan asked in confusion, "I remember little aunt has access to enter. Why didn’t you just go in?"
"It was fine when Ah Lie was single for me to come and go as I pleased, but now that he’s married, there’s a lady of the house, and it’s not appropriate to be too casual."
"Ah..." Ning Nuan sighed wistfully, "If I were the lady of this house, little aunt could come and go as she pleased, but sadly, Brother Ah Lie and I were not meant to be."
Mu Huaner did not respond to this.
But deep down, she knew very well that if Ah Lie had married Ning Nuan, their family relations would indeed be more harmonious.
After all, Ning Nuan was very close to her, and she liked Ning Nuan a lot.
Aunt Xue came over to open the door and was a bit nervous to see Mu Huaner, "Miss Mu, my son-in-law isn’t home."
Previously, every time Mu Huaner came, she was full of aggression, so Aunt Xue was somewhat afraid of her.
Mu Huaner’s face bore a kind smile, and her voice was very gentle, "I’m here to visit Qianyi. Is she home?"
"The young lady is upstairs." Aunt Xue nodded blankly, wondering in her heart why Miss Mu’s attitude was so amiable today.
"Then please help me ask her to come down. I won’t go up and disturb her." Mu Huaner, accompanied by Ning Nuan, walked inside.
"Okay." Aunt Xue turned and went upstairs.
Yan Qianyi was in the laboratory, engaging in alchemy.
Aunt Xue hurried in, looking somewhat panicked, "Miss, the little aunt of your son-in-law has come to cause trouble again!"
Yan Qianyi stopped what she was doing and looked up to see a worried expression on Aunt Xue’s face. She smiled.
"It’s alright, no need to be nervous. I’ve already cleared up the misunderstanding with her. She won’t act as rudely as before."
Yan Qianyi didn’t tell Aunt Xue about the incident with the Mu Family and the hospital.
"But she has brought someone with her," Aunt Xue still felt uneasy.
"Who?"
"I don’t recognize them. I’ve never seen them before. They have golden long hair and are quite pretty." As Aunt Xue spoke, she suddenly remembered something, "But they look familiar; I think I saw that face when I watched the live broadcast of the competition in the Morris Empire."
"That must be Ning Nuan." Yan Qianyi slightly furrowed her brows.
She could understand why Mu Huaner would come here.
But what was Ning Nuan doing here?
Aunt Xue asked, "Miss, should I immediately send an audio message to inform the son-in-law?"
"No need, Ah Lie is busy with something today, let’s not disturb him," Yan Qianyi stood up and said, "I’ll go down and take a look. Aunt Xue, please continue with lunch; I’m hungry."
"Okay." Aunt Xue nodded her head.
But in her heart, she still worried and felt she ought to at least inform the son-in-law, just in case Miss Mu really came to cause trouble...
So, Aunt Xue sent a message to Mu Yunlie, informing him that Mu Huaner and Ning Nuan had come to their home.
In the living room.
Seeing Yan Qianyi come down, Mu Huaner and Ning Nuan immediately stood up.
Seeing that both of them wore friendly smiles, Yan Qianyi also greeted them graciously with a smile, "Little aunt has come."
"Hope I didn’t disturb you?" Mu Huaner asked.
"Not at all. I haven’t been busy lately," Yan Qianyi walked over, "Please, have a seat."
Lately, Ah Lie had been controlling the toxins in his body very well. Her own health had no issues, and she did not have to worry about the corporate side of things.
Whenever she had time, she worked on her research; indeed, there was nothing in particular that she needed to be busy with.
Although there was some estrangement between her and Mu Huaner, which made her reluctant to interact with Mu Huaner more than necessary,
She thought that Mu Huaner held a significant place in Mu Yunlie’s heart and she guessed that Mu Yunlie definitely hoped she could get along with Mu Huaner harmoniously.
So, for Mu Yunlie, she was willing to make an attempt to interact with Mu Huaner.
Seeing Yan Qianyi’s cordial attitude, Mu Huaner breathed a sigh of relief, "I’m glad I haven’t troubled you. I just brought Nuannuan over to see how you’ve been lately."
