Chapter 568: REWARDING THE HUBBY

And the girls who helped Arisa were kicked out from their family, since no men in aristocrat or business family wanted to marry them and make Mu Family their enemy; and those who were engaged, their engagement broke in one night.

Just became those women went against Mu Lan, their lives turned upside down in a single night.

The night was still young. The party was yet to be over.

Mu Liang took Mu Lan in the lakeside and let her sit on a wooden chair. He rubbed her cool cheek and asked, "Are you alright?" He asked.

Mu Lan enjoyed his touch and replied, "I'm fine. Since hubby is here to protect the wifey, what is there for the wifey to be sad? The wifey is quite pleased with her hubby."

Mu Liang smiled at her word and asked her in mischief tone, "Why don't you give something to your hubby as a reward?"

Mu Lan said with enthusiasm, "Sure. Wifey will cook for hubby."

Sometimes, Mu Lan was really childish and innocent. Though as the 'reward' Mu Liang meant something else and he never wanted Mu Lan to get closer to the stove since she didn't know how to cook, he became curious.

"You want to cook for me?" Mu Liang's eyes flashed. He suddenly had an urge to eat Mu Lan's cooking.

"I want to. I will cook the most amazing dish as a reward. I think I'm very good at it." Mu Lan said proudly.

Mu Liang asked, "Did you practice a lot?" He never saw her going to the kitchen, so he didn't know how did she mastered cooking.

"I did. It was really easy." Mu Lan said truthfully.

Mu Liang smiled. "What did you cook?"

Mu Lan replied, "Instant noodles."

Mu Liang was speechless.

Mu Lan didn't see his expression and continued, "I just have to boil the water and then I have to put the hot water in the bowl of noodles and it will be cooked in five minutes. All I need is ten minutes to finish the delicious meal. Aren't I great or what?"

Mu Liang sighed and rubbed her head affectionately. "Yes, you are great."

Mu Lan was pleased with Mu Liang's answer. "Since I'm good at it, I will cook instant noodles for you. How about tomorrow?"

"Okay." Mu Liang agreed easily.

As Mu Lan couldn't cook, it was a great fortune for Mu Liang to be able to eat something that was at least cooked or boiled by her.

Xue Lin was using her great appetite to finish the expensive food which were served for the guests. She was so focused on eating that she didn't see the gazes of other guests on her; and even if she did, she wouldn't care.

Other guests were speechlessly looking at her gluttonous appearance and talked among themselves. No one could recognize her from anywhere.

Someone came forward and handed Xue Lin a tray of pastries. "Ma'am, please have them."

Xue Lin looked out and saw a pair of grey eyes. "Ah, you are that bodyguard."

The man's eyes were smiling. "I'm glad that ma'am recognized me."

Xue Lin took the tray of food and asked, "Weren't you a guard? And then bodyguard? How come you turned to be a waiter?"

The man smiled while answering, "Doing one job for the rest of my life is tiring for me. So, I decided to do another job."

Xue Lin nodded. "Sometimes, doing one job all the time is really boring. Thank you for the food." She took the tray.

He said, "The head chef is really pleased with you. He praised you and said that in his thirty years of experience in cooking, only one person complemented him for his great cooking skill and that was you. As a result, he especially made these pastries for you."

Xue Lin nodded and said, "Then I have to personally thank him for giving me such wonder food." After that, she opened her little mouth and ate a piece of pastries. Her face brightened up instantly. "It's delicious!"

Some male guests were looking at her direction. Seeing her face their eyes were filled with some illegal motives.

A pair of grey eyes narrowed. It wasn't sure what he was thinking. But his sharp glare made those filthy men turned their eyes to somewhere else.

"Ma'am, have this pastry as well. I think it will suit your taste." He said while giving her another pastry. He had no interest in leaving her with those people.

"Don't call me ma'am. I'm not a rich old woman. Calling me by my name makes me at ease. Oh, yes, it tastes good." Xue Lin didn't remove her eyes from the pastry. So, she didn't notice the warm gaze of that man beside her.

Meanwhile, Mohammed Akram was standing in the flower garden. From there, he could clearly see the scenario of the lakeside. He was looking at the kissing couple. His eyes were calm and they didn't flinch even once after discovering the affectionate couple.

The sounds of kissing, moans and sweet giggling reached his ears. But, he had no reaction at all.

What was going through his mind, no one could tell.

His mind went to the scene ten years ago when he saw her for the first and last time. He promised that he would look for her and she said in reply that after he would find her, he would be saying his last wish.

However, that girl from ten years ago and the girl now had heaven and hell difference. If the girl that time could be compared with the hell, this one in front of his could be compared with the heaven.

"What's her true color?" Mohammed Akram murmured to himself. "Can I get her back if she recalls her memory?"

He also had other thought. If Mu Lan really had no memory, why didn't she go to the doctor and why she wasn't treated. Mu Liang clearly cared for her. If it was true then, he was supposed to give her the best treatment. Unless...
