Hidden Marriage: Spoiled by the Imperial Commander
Chapter 213: Hold Her Accountable

Chapter 213: Chapter 213: Hold Her Accountable

At that moment, Mu Yunlie was looking at her with mournful eyes. "Can you let go of me now?"

Yan Qianyi then realized she had been tightly clutching his arm, with one of her legs also pressed against his body.

She sprung up as if electrocuted, "You you... How did you end up in my bed?"

Mu Yunlie, looking weary and sporting two panda eyes, rubbed his arm that had gone numb from her grip.

Yan Qianyi remembered, last night at the bar, she had gone to use the restroom when she encountered a very handsome guy.

At the time, she felt he looked familiar so she took a few more glances, and afterward realized he looked a lot like Mu Yunlie.

And then...

She couldn’t remember anything after that.

So it really was him!

"What did you do to me last night?" Yan Qianyi asked with a grave tone.

If nothing had happened, why would the two of them end up sleeping together in the same bed!

It’s said that alcohol leads to...

She really wanted to slap herself hard.

Had she really broken her long-kept chastity just last night, after having guarded it for so long for Lord Commander?

"You should be asking yourself what you did to me last night," Mu Yunlie said, looking at her with a resentful gaze.

He didn’t get any sleep all night because of her shenanigans!

He couldn’t even remember how many cold showers he took last night!

Finally, when she fell asleep, she insisted on clinging to him.

Every time he moved slightly, she would become restless again.

So he had to maintain the same position all night before she finally fell into a deep sleep like a piglet.

Seeing Mu Yunlie’s expression, Yan Qianyi gasped in shock, "Don’t tell me I forced myself on you last night?!"

It wasn’t out of the realm of possibility.

After all, she had always lusted after Mu Yunlie’s physique.

It was only because she was thinking of marrying the Commander in the future that she had kept her desires in check.

Had she just lost control because she drank too much last night?

This is the end!

Yan Qianyi, in a panic, paced around the room biting her fingernails, wondering what to do now?

Mu Yunlie would surely expect her to take responsibility, but she didn’t want to...

And how would she explain it to the Commander later?

With things having come to this point, Yan Qianyi could only repeatedly comfort herself, thinking that we’re in modern times now, and the Lord Commander probably isn’t that feudal and conservative, right?

Seeing Yan Qianyi in such a fluster, Mu Yunlie chuckled, sat up from the bed, and straightened his clothes. "Have you figured out how to take responsibility for me?"

Yan Qianyi’s heart skipped a beat and her face fell gloomy, "How do you want me to take responsibility?"

Mu Yunlie raised an eyebrow slightly, "What do you say?"

Yan Qianyi steeled her heart and sat down on the edge of the bed with her back to Mu Yunlie, "Anyway, there’s no money, only a life to give!"

If she couldn’t take responsibility, she could only play dumb.

"Last night I was drunk, you weren’t drunk, and besides, you’re a grown man with such good physical skills, you couldn’t have been unable to refuse. So it must have been voluntary, and since it was a consensual act, we’re both adults. That means neither of us has any responsibility; let’s just pretend that nothing happened last night."

But really, it was quite a loss.

To give away her first time in such a confused state, not feeling anything at all!

Mu Yunlie couldn’t help but laugh a few times.

Hearing this, Yan Qianyi turned her head.

Only now did she belatedly notice that he was still dressed, and looking down at herself, her clothes were also intact.

Suddenly understanding, she quickly flipped over the bed’s blanket and scanned around the bed.

No bloodstains!

"You lied to me!" Yan Qianyi puffed her cheeks, "Nothing happened."

Mu Yunlie spread his hands, "I didn’t lie to you, it’s just what you assumed."

He lifted the corners of his lips into a smile, leisurely sizing her up, "But why do you seem a little disappointed?"

Yan Qianyi was stunned for a moment, "Not at all, I’m relieved, thank God."

"Alright, let’s talk serious. Tomorrow night, my grandfather wants to meet you and your family," Mu Yunlie said earnestly, "You’ll have to play along with a little act for me."

"Then... I can only bring my grandma with me."

"That’s fine."

"You have to do me a favor as well," said Yan Qianyi, "My brother found out I got married and is worried about me being tricked. He wants me to bring you to Morris Empire for a visit during the holidays. Can you make some time?"

"Your brother?"

"Yes, my brother is the Prince of Morris Empire, the husband of the Queen."

Mu Yunlie lowered his gaze and slightly furrowed his brow.

Yan Yao suddenly wanted to see him, and even asked him to visit Morris Empire.

Could it be... that the medicine bottle that fell last night had exposed his identity?

Yan Qianyi continued, "Next week the outdoor comprehensive training will restart, and there will be a week off after it ends. I want to go then, will you have time?"

She was eager to see her brother as well.

Her handsome brother had always doted on her since she was little, and now that she was suddenly married, her brother must be worried.

She didn’t want her brother to worry.

Letting her brother meet Mu Yunlie could ease the anxiety in her brother’s heart.

Mu Yunlie pondered for a moment, "I’ll try to arrange some time. I will send you the location of tomorrow night’s dinner later, I need to go now."

Having said that, Mu Yunlie left.

Yan Qianyi watched his retreating figure, confused.

Did his mood suddenly become a bit strange?

Mu Yunlie walked out of the villa’s gate and saw his car around the corner.

Pei Yuexuan was sleeping in the driver’s seat.

He opened the car door and got in. The sound of the door closing woke Pei Yuexuan.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Mu Yunlie’s cold gaze in the rearview mirror and shuddered, "Lord... Lord Commander."

"Why are you still here? What if you had been seen?"

Pei Yuexuan said innocently, "You ordered me to wait here when you carried Madam out of the car last night, so I waited all night..."

Without the Lord Commander’s direct order, he didn’t dare to leave.

"Let’s go now," Mu Yunlie urged.

Pei Yuexuan hurriedly started the car.

After driving out of the community, he curiously asked, "Lord Commander, you seem unhappy?"

The Lord Commander had the face of someone who hadn’t slept well, obviously having had a rough night.

Another night without coming out, he must have had an intense night with Madam, right?

Shouldn’t he be very happy then?

Why was there still an oppressive gloom around him?

Mu Yunlie said, "Yan Yao wants to meet me. Qianyi wants to take me to Morris Empire."

Upon hearing this, Pei Yuexuan stomped on the brakes and turned to look at Mu Yunlie, "Does Yan Yao already know about your identity? And Madam, does she..."

"She doesn’t know."

Just now he had also worried that his identity might have been exposed when the medicine bottle fell.

But her reaction didn’t seem like she knew about his identity at all.

As for Yan Yao, he wasn’t sure.

"Will you go then?" asked Pei Yuexuan.

Mu Yunlie turned to look out the window, "I will."

"But Lord Commander, if Yan Yao really does know about your identity, it could be very dangerous for you to go to Morris Empire!" Pei Yuexuan expressed his concern.

Mu Yunlie nonchalantly curled his lip, "I have to meet this brother-in-law eventually. It’s also a good chance for me to test the waters."
