Chapter 791: HAD ENOUGH OF THIS
In the end, the couple went to sleep when the sun started to show up in the eastern sky. Their bodies were tired, but their minds were in bliss. They had a wonderful time in their dreams.
At noon, Mu Lan opened her eyes with a headache. She yawned and rubbed her head. After looking outside the window, she realized that they missed breakfast. Then, her gaze fell on the sleeping man under her. Despite her terrible headache, she smiled and started to kiss all over his face happily.
Mu Liang's eyelashes flattered and opened slowly as he felt her wet kisses. His arms around her tightened and he swiftly changed their position, making her gasped. Her back of the head touched the pillow and she looked up to the man who just woke up.
He kissed her forehead and then asked, "Do you have a headache?"
Mu Lan nodded and whined, "A lot."
This time he pecked lightly on her lips and said, "You have been working hard lately. Go back to sleep. I'll wake you up later."
She smiled and said, "Alright." After that, she closed her eyes. Soon, she fell asleep as he stroked her head.
Hearing her regular breathing, Mu Laing covered her before getting up from the bed. He freshened up and went outside. In the corridor, he met Mu Chen.
Mu Chen stop seeing his elder brother. "Oh, brother I was going to look for you."
"Come to my study." Mu Liang said that and headed towards the opposite direction.

By the time when Mu Lan woke up, the sun was already setting. The aroma of the hangover soup was very appetizing. Her stomach growled loudly. While rubbing her head, she got up from the bed and went to the washroom to freshen up. after that, she came out fully dressed and found a maid serving a bowl of soup on the table.
Before the maid could greet her, she ordered, "Prepare some food for me. I'm starving."
"Yes, first young mistress." The maid obediently bowed and left.
Mu Lan finished everything that was served for her. She rubbed her stomach in satisfaction and walked in the corridor. Suddenly her eyes landed outside the window and found a shadow in the flower garden.
Mu Lan went outside and followed the particular person. She strode to the garden and went behind that person.
All of a sudden, she screamed, "Wah!"
"Ah!" That person was spooked and fell on the ground.
"Surprise!" Mu Lan smiled brightly.
Mu Chen gritted his teeth and said, "You!" He really hated her to the core.
"Don't glare at me. I feel broken heartened." Mu Lan pretended to be sad.
Mu Chen gritted his teeth and stayed silent. He turned his head elsewhere. All he wanted to relax a bit and cool his head, but a certain someone always had to mess up everything every time.
Mu Lan asked, "Why are you upset? I thought if anyone would be happier, that would be you."
Mu Chen frowned. He didn't wish to talk about what she was speaking.
Mu Lan continued, "Come one, you cannot act like this when I helped mother-in-law and Noel become a couple. You wanted that to happen from the very beginning. Isn't that why you hid the traces of Noel going to mother-in-law's room every night? I'm amazed that only you knew about it. You successfully hid it from your two intelligent brothers. Bravo!"
"Just shut up!" Mu Chen snapped.
Ever since he was little, he was closest to his mother. One night, he couldn't sleep well due to stomachache and went to look for his mother. That's when he discovered that his mother had an illness though he didn't understand what was causing her to behave that way. She was screaming in her dreams and he couldn't wake her up. Feeling scared, he ran to Noel's room and banged his door with his tiny hands. He knew that in this castle, only Noel was good to his mother. Noel discovered Jing Sheng's mental illness that night.
At that time, the ex-Head Butler was still alive and he discovered Noel going to Jing Sheng's room. Mu Chen practically begged him while crying not to tell anyone about it. He agreed as he had an idea of Noel's feelings for her and helped Mu Chen and Noel. He found a cure for her mental disorder and gave it to Noel. Since then, Noel injected Jing Sheng the medicine every night. When Mu Chen grew up, security cameras had been installed and the system had been programmed to be disabled at night in the area of Jing Sheng's chamber by Mu Chen's trusted friend. The ex-Head Butler and Mu Chen protected the secret till Mu Lan found out.
Mu Chen wasn't close to his father or grandparents. Both of his brothers neglected him due to their training and responsibility. He only wanted to be loved, that's all. But he was isolated. His only option was his mother. As he grew up, he noticed how good Noel was to his mother and to him, and he deeply wished that Noel was his father. But it's all he could do. When he became adult, he got his chance to move away from his family. He planned to be stronger and then take his mother away from his prison.
However, when he came back, everything seemed to be changed because of a certain girl. He didn't want to admit but he was in debt to her.
Mu Lan knew his feelings. Xue Lin already told her about his personality. He had a tough expression outside but his inside was warm and soft. After knowing his real side from that night incident, she teased him whenever they were alone.
Mu Chen tried to relax but the 'nuisance' came to disturb him. He glared at her and tried to control his temper. Then, he pointed out his index finger at her and said, "Listen, I don't owe you anything. You saved my brother but in exchange I allowed you to stay by my brother's side. You should be happy that I allowed it."
Mu Lan chuckled. "Do you think we care if you approve us or not?"
Boom!
That's it! He had enough of this shameless couple!
