Chapter 424: A trip to America

Muyang had just ended his class when the flowers were delivered to him personally. A bouquet of white and pink peonies which he brought to his nose immediately.

"Ouuuuuuuu." a few students that passed by said.

Muyang turned around and glared at them "Don’t you have another class or should I welcome you back from the holidays with a test?"

The students hurried to leave after they were hit with the threat of a test. But the news that the professor received flowers hit the forum pretty quickly.

When they left, Muyang smiled and smelled the flowers again. Wenzhe handed him his phone because it was obvious that his next step was to call Chi Lian and thank her for the flowers.

"Did I receive any important calls or messages?" he asked Wenzhe.

"No young master." Wenzhe replied. "The only important news you have received is from Hui Wan. He and the rest of the team landed safely in D city and he is about to meet with the rest of the owners of the remaining land. Two of them have already agreed to sell to us as of one minute ago.

"Good." he answered. "Tell him to up his offer until he gets a yes from all of them."

He sat down at his desk, turned on the computer and then he turned his attention to his phone. He had received a message from his wife , a video of their children at their first swimming lessons. While his little princess created a fuss, his son played the role of a responsible big brother and tried to comfort her.

With a soft smile on his face, he watched the video three times before putting the phone down. It was no wonder his wife had sent him flowers, she must have known that he would be disappointed in himself for not having been there. It could not be helped though, it was the first day of class after the winter break, he could not avoid it.

When he thought about this being the first day of classes, he remembered that his young brother-in-law had turned up today morning and registered. As a continuing student, he started classes immediately. Since they were in close quarters, he wondered if he should check in on the boy.

"Young master, those updated notes have been sent to your email." Wenzhe knocked on his door, opened it slightly and said. "Professor Hans called the office one hour ago, he will be in the country to attend the Asian economic forum for three days next week and he has agreed to talk to your students on Tuesday for one hour at twelve. His only request is that you feed him a worthy lunch after class."

"Alright, thank you." Muyang replied. Wenzhe closed the door once again and he left Muyang to work.

Muyang sent a message to his wife thanking her for the flowers and then he put the phone aside, resisting the urge to look at the video of his children’s first swimming class again. He sighed and lifted the picture of their little family that was on his desk.

Ten seconds later, he opened his email to look at the notes Wenzhe was talking about.

At night, in their bedroom before going to bed, Chi Lian raised the topic of the Starlight ball with Muyang.

"Husband," she said, "I received an invitation to the starlight ball. It came directly from the palace, the princess Clementine sent it."

Muyang propped a pillow up close to his body and he tapped it, indicating that she should come close and lay there.

Chi Lian slid over and directly laid her head on his bare chest instead. It was so comfortable for her that she started tracing little infinity symbols over his heart.

"Have you ever initiated any form of communication with that princes before?" he asked her.

She shook her head , "No." she answered. "I was also surprised and excited to receive it. Bear thinks someone might be trying to prank me."

"What do you think?" he asked her.

"I don’t know what to think quite honestly, I don’t have any mutual friends or business with that princess so I don not know why she invited me. But bear said that the ball is a wonderful event to meet people and make connections in the business world. I also think I would love to take a tour of the American empire.

At the same time I think it might be a great idea to turn the little trip into a photo shoot for the magazine. The pros outweigh the cons when it comes to this issue."

She bent over to the bed side table and picked up a hair band. Then she handed it to Muyang and she sat with her back facing him.

Without being asked to, Muyang used the hairband to tie her hair up for her and when he was finished, they resumed the position they had been sleeping in.

"You have been married for less than a month and you already want to leave your husband and go on a solo trip to America." he commented.

She raised her head and chuckled while poking his cheek with her finger. Muyang playfully tried to bite her finger and she started laughing.

"Do you want to go with me? I have been considering taking the children too but I am concerned about their safety. It’s a foreign land and I will probably be busy most of the time."

"And I will be lonely because I cannot go. The Asian economic forum is going to be held in our empire this year and I have to attend." Muyang added to the reasons why he and the children should not go. "It will be hard enough to be here without you but if the children also go, I just might die from loneliness." he exaggerated by pouting and placing a hand over his heart. "Wife, feel how lonely my heart already is."

He pulled her hand and placed it over his beating heart.

She leaned down with her head and pressed her ear against his chest. The so called lonely heart was beating fast and the beating was increasing by the seconds.

"Yang-Yang, I don’t think this is a lonely heart. It’s beating too fast and sounds so excited." she giggled.

He pulled her close and rolled them both over so that he was laying on top of her. "I know the secret as to why it’s beating fast." he whispered. "Do you want to know? It’s a very big secret." he said playfully.

The way he was looking at her so seductively with his eyes despite sounding so playful, she knew how the night would end.

She giggled, raised her head up and kissed him.
