Chapter 371: Helping Muyang relax

At night, Chi Lian was putting the children to bed when Muyang came into their room. He found her singing ’Twinkle, twinkle, little star.’

"Shhh!" she told him. "Don’t wake them up."

He nodded and slowly came into the room to kiss the children goodnight. There was a bean chair in the corner and he sat down and let out a very long exhausted breath and loosened his tie but before he could relax and make himself comfortable Chi Lian pointed to the door indicating that they should get out.

He stood up and groaned as if his bones were aching and he waited for her by the door and they left together.

As they were going up stairs, he placed his hands around her shoulders and groaned again.

"Hard day?" she asked.

"Hmmm." He replied. "Very hard baby, more than I imagined."

"Do you want to talk about it?" she asked as she pushed her bedroom door open.

He had stress written all over his face as if he had been carrying an extremely big load on his shoulders. She could not bear to remind him that her grandfather did not want him sleeping here.

"No talking, just need you." He shut the door behind them forcefully and pulled her into his arms for a very tight hug.

She rubbed his back since she could not reach his head and pat it like she wanted to do. She could feel his body quivering and shaking slightly as if it was releasing tension. She wondered what it was exactly that he had been up to that he was so tense.

"I think you need to have a bath." She suggested.

"Will you join me?" he asked.

"And I thought you were the only one with attachment issues but I approve of his attachment to you very highly." T4 commented unnecessarily because he was not welcomed by her right now.

She muted him once again because she did not need his side commentary and suggestions on how to care for Muyang.

She lifted her head away from his chest and told him, "That was the plan along, you are like a big baby right now and I have to take care of my baby. Take off your clothes as I prepare the bath she suggested."

She had all the necessary items to make this bath warm inviting and relaxing for him. She prepared warm water in the bathtub, added vanilla scented bath bombs which created thick foam. Then she added sandal wood smelling oil which T4 had recommended for her to use when she needed to relax.

He came inside the bathroom as she was lighting some candles and he got into the bath as she was dimming the lights.

"I will be right back." She said and she dashed outside for a minute before returning with a bottle of white wine and two glasses. She set her phone up to play a soft soothing melody. The atmosphere was as relaxing as it could possibly be and she was proud of herself.

She undressed and joined him in the bath tub, setting herself right between his parted legs and leaning against his chest.

He held her with one hand, held a glass of wine in his other hand, closed his eyes and leaned his head back. They stayed in that position for about ten minutes, enjoying this comfortable solitude that had them wrapped in a private two person world.

She could feel the stress and tension melting out of his body like snow melting under heat. She decided that they should enjoy such a bath at least once every week.

She heard him sigh again for the third time in under fifteen minutes.

"Is it working?" she asked.

"Like magic." He answered.

"The emperor’s uncle died, did you see the news?" she asked and then she called herself an idot in her head because this was supposed to be a relaxing bath, talking about what had probably stressed him all day was not helpful.

"I said it would happen and it did. He was probably given two options, death or life in the cold prison with a different identity. Someone like that who enjoyed controlling the lives of others like a puppet master would never allow his life to be controlled by others so he chose death."

Her mind drifted to those palace drams where the former empress or disgraced concubine was given a bowl of poison to commit suicide. Was that happened in this case? Were those palace dramas actually true?

"Did he kill himself?" she asked extremely curious.

"En," he replied.

"They have a unique way of doing things, I half expected the emperor to end his life personally." She replied after snorting.

"No, the royal family likes to keep their hands clean whenever possible. As long as one understood Genghis’s personality, it was not impossible to predict what his choice would be. The matter was settled internally without anyone else being the wiser. He has been cremated and the family will wear black for three days, the emperor will not host any important meetings in those days and if there are any royal events planned within the following week, they are to be cancelled." He explained.

"Nobody is paying much attention to his death; all eyes are focused on how the police is going to handle the plantation case. Do you think they are going to demolish the buildings now or wait for spring?" she genuinely wanted to hear his thoughts on one of the biggest debates in the empire right now.

Muyang said, "It would be wise to wait for spring because evidence the will be gathered preserved better then but the public is outraged and they are already condemning the police for their lackadaisical attitude in investigating the plantation when reports were made about child abuse over the years. In order to appease the public they are going to choose to demolish the buildings."

She sighed and shifted to the other side of the bathtub, sitting while facing him with her wine glass in hand.

"I am going to give up ownership of the entertainment company and toy company...." she filled him on Bear and her suggestions. "Do you think it’s a good idea?"

To her surprise he agreed fully with bear’s suggestions and predictions. He said he was the perfect example because his family had no ties to Jun investments. He had solo ownership of Jun investments with the exception of the shares he gave her and the children.

"Wenzhe tried to poach her once from the Morgan group but she rejected him. You have lucked out in landing a good business manager."

"He-he-he, thank you." she laughed like a menace. "We have been in the bath for too long, let’s go to bed. I will give you a very relaxing massage." she winked playfully.

"Hmm, who am I to say to such an enticing offer." Muyang put his wine glass down and carried her out of the bathroom happily.
