Chapter 107: She Could Not Resist His Temptation

Mu Chenyan bashfully shrunk her head into her body.

She could not resist this temptation! She herself could admit it!

Yuan Xuan looked at the small bump on the bed where the woman was coiled comfortably underneath the blanket.

In order to help cover up for herself, she even let out a light snore…

Yuan Xuan had initially wanted to talk to her about the matter regarding Zhao Ruoxin, but after seeing that she was intentionally avoiding him, he could do nothing but let it go.

There were some things she was better off not knowing.

Being unaware meant that she wouldn’t need to bear such a huge load!

After all, the old her had suffered tremendously, and he had only learnt about it today… …

After the conversation with Zhao Ruoxin at the Upper Mansion, Yuan Zhe had returned to the Peace Mansion where the second son was staying.

The architecture of the Peace Mansion was modeled after the Japanese’s ‘one bowl of soup’ concept.

From the north to the south, the Peace Mansion was in the shape of a gigantic “H”.

The block on the east side had three levels, which was where Yuan Tangzhong and Xue Meiwei lived.

There were two floors on the west side, which was where Yuan Zhe and Wen Ya had moved into after they had married.

In between the east and the west block was a glass corridor connecting both the wings.

The parents and the children were near each other, yet they were not exactly living under the same roof.

Furthermore, there was a huge public garden below.

The Yuan Family Mansion stretched nearly a thousand acres, and the three sub-mansions were built to surround the Upper Mansion where Old Mistress lived.

When Yuan Xuan’s parents were still alive, he had been living at the Longevity Mansion until he was five.

After the Yuan Tangbai couple had passed away, Old Mistress had closed off the Longevity Mansion, afraid that it might evoke Yuan Xuan’s memories of the past.

Hence, she had commissioned for the single building, Hibiscus Garden, to be built for him near the Upper Mansion. Yuan Xuan had been living there since his return from overseas.

However, this kind of special treatment was not extended to Yuan Zhe and Yuan Zhuan.

Even after marrying, Yuan Zhe could only continue staying at his old mansion.

Compared to the houses of the lower middle-class folks who were struggling in Luo Hai City, the living conditions of the Yuan Family were considered extremely luxurious.

To use a month’s pay of tens of thousands to pay for a house which cost a few ten thousand per square meter, laboring continuously every month, gasping for breath under the weight of living in a fast-paced city, and thinking about that nagging bank loan that needs to be repaid this month; only a handful of people did not have to deal with this kind of lifestyle!

Nonetheless, as statuses differed, so did the requirement for things.

From Yuan Zhe’s perspective, although Hibiscus Garden was not that luxurious, yet, in such a large family, being able to own a single mansion was a kind of symbol of status.

Moreover, the entire Southeast Region, Luo Hai, and Yuan Family would only pay attention to the Third Young Master. What about him, Eldest Young Master?

Yuan Zhe had always felt inferior in this regard!

This sense of imbalanced was inherited from his father.

He smoked a cigarette at the summer house downstairs. After that, he threw down the cigarette and stamped it into the soil.

Everyone in the Yuan Family was a crook! As he thought of this, a strange smile appeared on Yuan Zhe’s dark face.

When Wen Ya came out from the living room, she spotted him about to light a second cigarette.

The gentle and considerate woman reached out to stop him and before asking softly, “Where did you go to just now? “It’s so late and you’re still smoking out here, unafraid of catching a cold…”

Yuan Zhe sneered coldly. The unrestrained and moody man looked at his wife with a sinister gaze.

With regards to beauty, none in Luo Hai could rival Wen Ya.

Back then, someone had evaluated the young ladies of the aristocratic families of Luo Hai, and Wen Ya was named one of the four great socialites.

Moreover, when it came to talent, this woman was well-versed in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She was also capable of working independently in the outside world.

As Yuan Zhe was involved in politics, there were times when he was not available, so Wen Ya would represent him and help him to manage his businesses.

The Yuan Family’s stores thrived under her management, and even Yuan Xuan commended on his sister-in-law on her talent.

When it came to personality, even a picky woman such as Old Mistress Yuan was won over by Wen Ya. After Yuan Ran, Wen Ya was the most competent member of the family, ever moreso than him, the blood-related grandson.

Yuan Zhe suddenly reached out and pinched Wen Ya’s smooth and glowing cheek. He pinched so hard that Wen Ya’s pinkish face instantly became red.
