After raising a cub, I won by doing nothing

Chapter 383 Let’s Have a Good Chat
"Xiao Ya." Mu Yuan looked at Wen steadily and called out.

Xiaoya was Wen's maiden name, and Wen's eyes quickly turned red.

Covering her mouth with her hands, Wen was so emotional that she didn't know what to say. She could only watch Mu Yuan cry.

She really never thought that there would be a day when she would meet him again.

Not long after Mu Yuan left her, she found out that she was pregnant. Originally, when Mu Yuan left her, she had promised him that she would wait for him in that small mountain village.

But somehow the news of her pregnancy got out. The rules in that small mountain village were strict. Pregnancy before marriage was considered a disgrace to the village and the victim would be thrown into a pig cage.

In order to protect the baby in her belly, Wen had to leave the mountain village and find another way to make a living.

After leaving, I started living a life of homelessness and wandering.

Fortunately, she learned female medicine from her mother since she was young and was good at treating women. Relying on her own hands, she worked hard to raise her son. In the past two years, she brought Baili Jinye to settle in the capital.

As Baili Jinye grew up, Wen no longer had any hope of meeting Mu Yuan again.

Now her dead heart was rekindled, but when Wen thought about her current appearance, and then looked at Mu Yuan, who was still handsome and extraordinary in gorgeous clothes, she felt so ashamed that she wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.

"Xiao Ya, is this my son?" Seeing that Mrs. Wen didn't say anything, Mu Yuan pointed at Baili Jinye who looked confused and asked her.

Wen was stunned for a moment, then shook her head.

Mu Yuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Xiao Ya, to be honest, I don't want to punish you for deceiving the emperor."

With the crime of deceiving the emperor weighing on her, Wen looked up at Mu Yuan.

The man in front of me looked so familiar, yet so strange.

"If the emperor wants to punish me, then punish me." Wen said in a hoarse voice. She only had one son left by her side, and she would never give him the chance to snatch him away, even if he was the emperor.

Besides, he had been gone for twenty years and she had given her entire youth to him. It was impossible for her to have no resentment in her heart.

In Mu Yuan's eyes, Wen was gentle and harmless, with no temper, just like a little white rabbit.

This was the first time that Wen was so tough in front of him.

Mu Yuan couldn't help but frowned, looked at Baili Jinye and asked, "What's your name?"

"In reply to the emperor, my name is Baili Jinye." Baili Jinye came back to his senses and spoke to Mu Yuan in a neither humble nor servile manner.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Mu Yuan was also filled with profound meanings that were difficult to understand.

If the man in front of him was really the unfaithful man who abandoned his mother, then even if he was the emperor, Baili Jinye would not easily forgive him.

"Baili Jinye..." Mu Yuan's face gradually became serious. He felt a little uncomfortable that his son did not take his surname.

Mu Wanxi looked at Wen. She could understand why Wen didn’t want Baili Jinye to recognize her father. This time it was indeed her father who had cheated on someone else.

"Father, I'm going to the Imperial Garden to relax." Mu Wanxi felt like an outsider here, so she stood up and said.

Mu Yuan originally wanted Mu Wanxi to stay and help him talk, but before he could even open his mouth, Mu Wanxi quickly walked out of the imperial study.

Eunuch Li also wisely left the imperial study. In a blink of an eye, only Mu Yuan, Wen and Baili Jinye were left in the imperial study.

"You two sit down, let's have a good chat." Mu Yuan said in a deep voice to Wen's mother and son.
