The Newlywed's Sweet Honey: Husband, Pamper Me to the Bone!

Chapter 498: A Startled Bird

Yan Sijue looked at her coldly, "If I find out you did something to her... no matter how much I owe you, I won’t let you go!"

Xin sneered, "Your imagination is quite wild!"

Yan Sijue gave her a deep look, "I hope so... I also don’t want a woman with ulterior motives near my mother!"

Xin raised an eyebrow, "So, now you’ve decided to let me stay by Aunt Lan’s side, is that it? What if I refuse?"

"You don’t have a choice." Yan Sijue’s tone was icy.

Anger flashed in Xin’s eyes, "Yan Sijue, I’m suddenly feeling like giving Aunt Lan back to you was a mistake! If Aunt Lan wakes up and sees you treating me this way, what do you think she’ll think?"

"Then let’s wait until she wakes up!" Yan Sijue was unmoved, chin raised to signal, and immediately the bodyguard shoved Xin into the car.

"Assign more people to watch her!" Yan Sijue ordered coldly.

Yang Ru immediately responded with a yes. He glanced at Xin inside the car and sighed inwardly.

After dealing with Lan Yueru’s matter, Yan Sijue returned home and went to the study first thing, but didn’t see Mu Yiliang’s figure.

Recently, she had been in his study, either writing programs, watching movies, or browsing Taobao. Every time he came home, he could see her there, and it gave him peace of mind.

But today, Mu Yiliang wasn’t there!

His heart suddenly panicked, and he rushed to the bedroom, didn’t see anyone, then to the walk-in closet, still no sign of her!

For a moment, the man’s mind went blank! That bone-deep fear and panic made his teeth begin to chatter!

No, no, no, she was perfectly fine before he left, the security at Yan Mansion is impenetrable, she must be fine, he’s overthinking it... She’s definitely somewhere in the villa...

He reassured himself inwardly, but that terror never faded!

The man quickly went downstairs again, saw Housekeeper Li, and nearly couldn’t stop himself from grabbing Housekeeper Li’s collar to question him!

Fortunately, the last bit of rationality made him ask calmly, "Where is Madam?"

"Oh, Madam is in the kitchen, making pastries with Little Master." Housekeeper Li noticed something unusual in the master’s tone and quickly replied.

Yan Sijue couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, then gave a self-deprecating smile.

He really had become a frightened bird now.

He walked into the kitchen, saw that familiar slender figure, and finally felt completely at ease.

Mu Yiliang and Xiaoze were kneading dough, and it seemed like they had been playing around, with flour smudged on their faces, looking quite comical.

"...I’ll make a rabbit!"

"That’s not a rabbit, it’s a short-legged little monster!"

"Hmph... it’ll look the same when it’s steamed anyway, right?"

"It’s too ugly, I won’t eat it!" Mu Yiliang said disdainfully.

Xiaoze’s eyes shifted, "Then let Daddy eat it instead!"

Just as he finished speaking, his peripheral vision seemed to catch something, Xiaoze turned to see Yan Sijue and exclaimed, "Daddy, why are you here!"

Mu Yiliang heard Xiaoze’s voice and turned around, a look of surprise on her face, "You’re back so soon?"

She quickly washed her hands and dried them, walked over to the man, and hugged his waist naturally, "I was going to make some pastries and wait for you in the study, didn’t expect you’d be back so soon."
