Hidden Marriage: Spoiled by the Imperial Commander
Chapter 224: Infidelity

Chapter 224: Chapter 224: Infidelity

Aunt Xue said awkwardly, "Son-in-law, I’m sorry... The miss had dinner and then went straight to her bedroom. I had no idea when she went back to school. It looks like you can only see her after a week."

"It’s fine, I’ll head back now," Mu Yunlie said, expressionless.

Once he got back into the car, he frowned and thought for a moment, then said to Ah Chang, "Have the mainframe send me Xiao Ke’s location."

Between individuals, unless one actively sends their location to the other, even if they are registered as a married couple in the system, one cannot find the other’s whereabouts.

Only the mainframe can retrieve the locations of all individuals in the system.

The next option would be to use hacking techniques.

Ah Chang asked, "Sir, do you suspect that the person just now was Madam? That’s not possible..."

Mu Yunlie said impatiently, "Just do as I say."

Soon, the mainframe sent over Xiao Ke’s location.

Seeing that Xiao Ke was at the Federation Military Academy, Ah Chang said with satisfaction, "See, I told you it couldn’t have been Madam. And besides, that person just now had a special ability, which Madam doesn’t have."

Mu Yunlie pressed his lips tightly together, not saying a word.

Was he really being over-suspicious?

Yan Qianyi had quietly returned to her dorm early in the morning.

Yan Chuhua was still asleep. When she turned over, she saw someone sitting in the dorm and was so startled that her drowsiness vanished, and she jumped up from the bed.

Upon seeing it was Yan Qianyi, Yan Chuhua let out a sigh of relief, "Qianyi, when did you get back? You scared me."

"An hour ago," Yan Qianyi checked the time. "You should get up too, we have to assemble and set off in an hour."

Yan Chuhua rubbed her head.

She had suffered from insomnia last night.

Yun Mu’s words from that evening lingered in her memory: "You are someone I will never hurt."

Those words indeed provided her with some comfort.

But having a secret about Yun Mu always prevented her from acting as if nothing had happened.

She worried that one day, their friendship would turn into enmity due to different stances.

And just last night, she discovered that Qianyi also had a secret.

Suddenly, she felt like nobody was as real as they seemed.

Including herself...

"What are you daydreaming about?" Yan Qianyi said. "Get up and wash or else you’ll be late."

"Qianyi, what did you do last night? Why did you want me to cover for you?" Yan Chuhua asked.

She dared not probe into Yun Mu’s business.

But Qianyi was her best friend, and she hoped they could be honest with each other.

"I didn’t do much, just sneaked out for some fun," Yan Qianyi said nonchalantly.

"Qianyi, I really consider you my best friend. Can we not keep secrets from each other? How about this: You tell me your secret, and I’ll tell you mine. Let’s exchange secrets, okay?"

Yan Qianyi laughed a bit, "I don’t have any secrets, and you should keep yours to yourself."

Yan Chuhua frowned, "Aren’t you curious about my secret?"

Yan Qianyi responded indifferently, "Everyone has their secrets and privacy. There’s no need to know everything."

She had lived a life in the otherworld and had come to view many things indifferently.

"But in the future, we’ll fight side by side. How can we trust each other with our backs if we don’t know what the other is hiding?"

"You just need to be clear whether the person can be trusted, and if they are sincere to you. That’s enough," Yan Qianyi said as she picked up a cup of water and took a sip, "Anyway, I trust you. Now hurry up and get ready."

"Did you have an affair?" Yan Chuhua asked. "You definitely sneaked out to meet another man last night! That’s why you don’t want Teacher Mu to know."

Yan Qianyi nearly spit out her water.

"So, I was right!" Yan Chuhua jumped out of bed, walked over to Yan Qianyi, "Qianyi, how could you do this to Teacher Mu? He is so handsome and excellent! How could you secretly date another man?"

Yan Qianyi was speechless.

But... letting Chuhua misunderstand like this was quite convenient.

Yan Qianyi’s silence made Yan Chuhua even more certain of her guess.

"Do you know how many girls in the school are secretly in love with Teacher Mu? You really don’t know how blessed you are!"

"Aiya..." Yan Qianyi sighed, "I’ve told you before, he and I aren’t really a married couple. We’ll divorce after a year. Actually, he has someone he likes, and the two of us understand each other tacitly. I asked for your help in hiding it just to avoid unnecessary complications and gossip."

Yan Chuhua’s eyes shifted in doubt.

Wasn’t Qianyi always someone who never cared about gossip?

And she felt that Teacher Mu’s gaze towards Qianyi was one of affection.

"Chuhua, you must keep this a secret for me, okay? The person I’m seeing now is even better! Once I divorce Mu Yunlie, I’ll introduce him to you, and you’ll definitely like him."

Yan Chuhua pouted, "Fine, as long as you don’t regret it later."

She still thought Teacher Mu was the best, a perfect match for Qianyi.

"Don’t worry, I won’t regret it. Now go wash up, and then we can go have breakfast in the cafeteria."

With the experience from the previous outdoor comprehensive training, the new students were devouring their food in the cafeteria as if there wasn’t going to be another meal.

Xue Xiaoguang, with his stomach bulging, let out a satisfied burp, "This should be enough for the whole day’s consumption."

Seeing Yan Chuhua’s cheeks were also stuffed, Yun Mu said, "Don’t eat yourself sick. We’re allowed to bring food and provisions into the mountains this time."

"How do you know?" Yan Chuhua mumbled, "Are you sure?"

"Mm, I have inside information," Yun Mu said.

He knew not only this piece of inside information but also where the flags were hidden.

Vice Officer Pei had told him everything.

The intention was to make things easier for Yan Qianyi.

Initially, when Vice Officer Pei asked him to come to the Military Academy to monitor Yan Qianyi, he thought the Military suspected Yan Qianyi was a spy.

But now, every order from Vice Officer Pei seemed to favor Yan Qianyi.

He didn’t know why, but he couldn’t ask more questions; he just had to follow orders.

Xue Xiaoguang protested, "But the school didn’t announce anything."

Yun Mu insisted, "It won’t be wrong. I’ve already prepared provisions for the four of us. Later, see if there is anything else you need, and you can buy it at the supermarket."

Convinced by Yun Mu’s confident demeanor, Xue Xiaoguang angrily slapped the table, "Damn it! I’m almost stuffed to death. Why didn’t you say so earlier?"

Then he turned to Yan Qianyi, "Sis, you didn’t eat much. Did you also know about this inside information early on?"

"I didn’t know," Yan Qianyi pulled out a pill and tossed it to Xue Xiaoguang, "Catch."

Xue Xiaoguang caught it eagerly, thrilled, "Is this the same miracle pill for bolstering health that you gave Chuhua before?"
