Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1370: Chapter 1384: We Are Husband and Wife

Mu Xingfeng chuckled softly, but his tone was serious, ”Beautiful, my wife is the most beautiful, I can never get enough of looking at her.”

An Ran’s eyes curved into a smile, her eyes shimmering with a glint of light, and she lightly tapped him with her pen, ”Since when did you become so glib?”

After speaking, she lowered her head and continued with her homework, writing leisurely, unable to hide her good mood.

”Wife, thank you for today,” Mu Xingfeng suddenly said.

Old Mr. Shen’s anger today was not without reason, and the root of this entire incident was because he had not properly dealt with the relationship between Wang Xia and her son out of momentary negligence, which sowed such a seed of trouble.

From the beginning of the year when Wang Xia came to the villa, and that mother and son had an ulterior motive in their first clash with An Ran, he had noticed it. But he didn’t take this matter to heart, thinking that Wang Xia was just an insignificant person, and in his life, having An Ran was enough, what did it matter how others were?

It was precisely this mindset that allowed Wang Xia to systematically carry out her plan, putting An Ran in danger.

After the Nan’an incident, he intentionally put pressure and ordered the Mu Family to stop the economic assistance that had been provided to Wang Xia all along.

He just wanted Wang Xia to understand that some people were beyond her reach, and some people were not someone she could provoke.

Yet, he did not expect Wang Xia to be capable of doing something so extreme.

And his little wife, from beginning to end, did not say a word of complaint to him, not even involving him in resolving this matter.

This thank you was something he had always wanted to say to her, and he also wanted to say sorry.

But such words he didn’t want to say, some things can only be done to put his heart at ease.

An Ran’s pen paused, and she looked up with a smile, ”Thank you for what? You said it yourself, we are husband and wife.”

When she first got together with Mu Xingfeng, she never had that concept, suddenly being tied to a man she wasn’t very familiar with. At that time, what An Ran had most in her heart was vigilance and fear.

Although she knew that this man would not hurt her, when facing the unknown world of the two of them, she habitually played the ostrich, burying her head in the sand, not refusing, nor easily revealing her heart.

Faced with Mu Xingfeng’s care, while she was moved, she was also cautious, not knowing what mindset to accept it with.

At that time, the words Mu Xingfeng said most often to her were, we are husband and wife.

Now, she finally understands the meaning of those two words, husband and wife.

Before she was eighteen, she lived in a daze, without a sense of self.

What she thought about most every day was how to be a good child, so as not to trouble her grandma, not to worry her grandma, later to not be rejected by her adoptive mother, and to have her adoptive father look at her even once.

If someone asked her at that time if she was tired, she would tell them without hesitation, tired, truly tired.

Exhausted physically and mentally.

The kindness of the An Family raising her was like a shackle that left her breathless. Clearly knowing that Sun Xuehui didn’t like her, clearly knowing that Sun Xuehui and An Sijia had dug one pit after another for her, set one trap after another, she still had to jump in.

Because if she didn’t jump in, they would be unhappy. If they were unhappy, they would withhold her tuition, her living expenses.

At that time, her only hope was to turn eighteen, to get into the university she longed for, so that she could leave the An Family, earn her own living, and gradually repay the An Family’s kindness.
