Master's Untamed Wife

Mu Chenyan looked up and thought about it for a minute before saying, "Then I'll get off here."

"But, Madam..."

Mu Chenyan stopped the driver from continuing as she went on, "It's just right around the corner now. It isn't even far. I can manage."

She alighted from the car and took the box of apples that she had bought before closing the door. Seeing that the road was so congested now, she decided to take the small alley. But apparently, someone also had the same idea. As she had just reached the middle of the alley, a bike zoomed past her. It would have hit her if she didn't sidestep at the right time but while doing so, her foot twisted and she fell down.

Along with her, the box of apples in her hands also fell down and the fresh apples that she just got from the farm, scattered. The person on the bike stopped at the end of the alley and turned his head to look towards her.

Lifting up the helmet's visor, he called out, "Are you alright?"

Mu Chenyan's eyes were stuck on the apples that she couldn't take with herself anymore. Her hands clenched the hem of her dress as she continued to remind herself, 'You can't yell. No, can't yell! You've changed. You're a whole new person now. You don't get mad and you don't get irrational. You have to set an example of being gentle for our Elle.'

After repeating it in her head, she turned her head towards the biker and said, "I'm fine."

"I'm sorry!" he raised his hand to apologize.

Mu Chenyan's whole face contorted with rage but she took a deep breath to calm herself down. She knew if she got upset right now, she'd definitely punch this rash driver. But what was the point of arguing with a young man? She should act as an elder!

She got up from the ground and dusted off her clothes as she replied, "It's alright. It's not your fault that you're disabled."

"Excuse me! Did you just indirectly called me blind?"

Mu Chenyan had already turned around to leave. Only after getting out of the alley did she screamed out in pain and took off her heels to look at her foot. Earlier when she fell, she definitely twisted it. She looked towards the alley with a glare as she held her heel in her hand and shouted, "Bloody Bastard! It's an alley, not a race track! My old bones are not even gonna get repaired if anything went wrong." She huffed in anger, "You pray I never see you again or else! I'm gonna chew all your bones and turn them into a powder!"

Only after letting out some of her steam did she manage to cool down and went towards Hyson's house. She rang the doorbell and waited patiently. It didn't take long for the door to open and Hyson's mother appeared at the door.

Seeing Mu Chenyan, she looked pleasantly surprised. She did the hand sign to ask, 'How come you're here? And why didn't you tell me before coming?'

Mother Yue waved her hand indicating that that's not what she meant. She hurriedly took Mu Chenyan's hand and dragged her inside.

"Sss..."

Mother Yue paused when she heard Mu Chenyan hissing in pain. She looked back at her. But this time, she looked carefully and found that Mu Chenyan's hands were scraped. And her foot seemed to be swelling up.

'What happened?' she hurriedly inquired.

Mu Chenyan limped her way towards the living room and fell down on the sofa saying, "Nothing big. A stupid biker forgot his eyes at home!"

Mother Yue rushed to get the first aid kit. She brought it back and sat down to clean up the small wounds on Mu Chenyan's hands. Seeing her worried look, Mu Chenyan smiled, "Yue, why do you look so worried? It's nothing big. When I was young, I was a wild girl. You should have seen me at my peak. These small scratches are nothing to me. After all, I grew up in a military family. I'm a tough one!"

Mother Yue gave her a look before she said, 'Are you young anymore?'

Mu Chenyan coughed slightly, "One needs to be young at heart!"

Mother Yue rolled her eyes at her and didn't even bother arguing with her. She cleaned the wound before putting a band-aid on it. Then she put a cushion on her lap before she held her leg and put it on the cushion. She intently looked at the foot that even she could tell must have twisted badly.

However, Mu Chenyan had other ideas. She moved her foot for her to see as she said, "See? It isn't as bad as it looks!" Mother Yue threw another cushion at her face. "I'm not lying though. Although it turned slightly, it isn't that bad. Just bring me an ice pack."

Mother Yue carefully put her foot down and went to get the ice pack. As she came back, she found Mu Chenyan holding an apple. She extended it towards her saying, "Yue, this is the only one I could save." Seeing how Mother Yue eyed it, she added, "Don't look down on the single apple. Although it's only one, I have protected it with my life! It's very fresh. I especially went to the nearest farm to get it. I promise it's very sweet and crunchy. You'll love it."

Mother Yue placed the ice pack on her foot with force making Mu Chenyan scream out in pain.

"Can you be a little gentle here?"

Mother Yue held her face and turned it from one side to another as if looking for something.

"What are you doing?"

'I'm trying to find the caution tag that reads, fragile goods, handle with care.'

Mu Chenyan pursed her lips and refused to say anything.
