Jealousy coated every word that came from Yan Rusheng's mouth .
Xuxu was speechless .
Yan Rusheng can really twist her words, and he was more unreasonable than a woman .
Xuxu turned away from the man and back to the window as she admired the scenery . Country Y had busy and bustling streets, and there were fanciful, unique-looking buildings everywhere . Under the setting sun, the whole city seemed so surreal and beautiful .
The car left the busy and bustling part of the city and stopped outside a splendid-looking hotel which resembled a grand castle from outside . There was a fountain outside the entrance and the chandeliers illuminated the whole hotel . It gave off a luxurious and extravagant charm .
The chauffeur got down and brought out their luggage from the trunk .

Xuxu and Yan Rusheng remained in the car, the latter had her back facing him . She was giving him the silent treatment for insisting to stay at the hotel .
Why did he insist on staying at the hotel when they could stay with his parents?
Yan Rusheng glanced at Xuxu as he studied her expression . He grinned and ignored her .
He decided not to allow her to have her way every single time; otherwise, she would become too pampered . These past few days, he had almost become a hen-pecked husband .
Women occasionally threw tantrums, and this does not exempt Wen Xuxu . Though, in her tantrums, she's able to display an adorable expression while maintaining a pout .
The chauffeur came out of the hotel and started the car once more . Xuxu continued to peer out of the window .
It was already dark by the time they got to Aunt Mu Li's mansion . The second the car stopped in the courtyard, Xuxu pushed the door and jumped to her feet .

A beautiful, elegant lady came out of the house wearing a dark purple knitted dress . She had draped a white shawl around her shoulders and her short hair was beautifully curled .
No one could tell her real age from her appearance .
When she saw Xuxu and Yan Rusheng getting out of the car, excitement and joy stirred in her charming peach blossom-shaped eyes . She walked hastily towards them . "Xuxu!"
She headed towards Xuxu and her every actions and gesture revealed how much she liked this daughter-in-law of hers .
"Aunt Mu Li . " Xuxu hurried towards her and gave her a tight hug . Happiness overwhelmed her as she lifted the old lady up and swung her in circles .
She carefully put her down on the ground and surveyed her from head to toe . Finally, her eyes darted to her hair and she immediately became startled . "Why did you cut your hair?!"
She still had long hair two days ago when they had a video conversation .
When they had a conversation over a video chat two days ago, she still had long hair .
Mu Li brushed her hair lightly . "To welcome both of you, I went to the salon this morning . Do I look pretty?"
She spun around so that Xuxu can take a better look .
"So ugly," said a lazy voice, ultimately cutting across Xuxu and Mu Li's chat .
The person who commented promptly walked away with his hands in his pockets . He did not wait further for Mu Li's reply .
Mu Li glared at the haughty-looking back and yelled, "Wretched son! Tonight, you shall sleep on the streets . Don't you dare sleep at my house!"
Yan Rusheng didn't halt, instead, he quipped, "It's fine with me since I don't intend to stay at your house . We'll leave after dinner . "
"You…" Mu Li was breathless with anger . But she composed her face into a smile when she saw Xuxu . "At last, you're finally here with us . Both your dad and I missed you so much . "
She held her hand and led Xuxu into the house .
The house was spick and span . Although Mu Li might be a little forgetful and careless at times, she was thoughtful and patient . French windows filled the entire mansion and the choice of furniture was all European-inspired . She also had her art pieces displayed all over the house .
A light scent pervaded the air and Xuxu took a deep breath .
She said, "Aunt Mu Li, your place is wonderful and I can't bear to leave every time . "
