Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart

Early morning.

Sunlight shone through the glass onto the pink colored bed. Mu Lee slightly moved, her fluttering eyelashes leaving two small shadows on her cheeks.

"Madam, are you awake? I'll let you go down for breakfast the next night. " There was a knock on the door.

Mu Lee opened her lazy eyes, scratched her messy hair and stretched a little before yawning and sitting up straight from the bed.

"I'm awake. I'm coming." Mu Lee rubbed her eyes. It seemed that he hadn't slept for such a long time.

It took a while for Mu Lee to realize that the bed sheets around him were completely new and that there were no traces of sleep at all. Could it be that Gu Tingchen had not even gone back to his room yesterday?

Mu Lee slipped off the bed and ran into the bathroom to wash herself as fast as she could.

In the dining hall, Gu Tingchen was already seated at the dining table, holding onto the newspaper in his hand as he elegantly sipped on his coffee.

The golden sunlight shone from the window onto the man's body. There wasn't a single part of his body that didn't show off his noble aura.

He didn't know what time this man worked last night, but he was still so energetic this morning. He was indeed a favored child of heaven.

"Breakfast is ready, ma'am." f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

Seeing Mu Lee walking down, the servant smiled and greeted him.

"Cough, cough …" Mu Lee coughed lightly, she retracted her gaze from Gu Tingchen and walked into the dining hall and sat at the seat opposite to Gu Tingchen.

"Sorry, I was a bit tired yesterday, so I didn't get up to make you breakfast."

In her mind, it was only right for a woman to cook for her husband. She had just gotten married, so it was a bit outrageous. She had to make her husband wait for her in the dining room every day.

"Madam, how can I let you do something like cooking? "If you're tired at night, you should sleep for a bit more. Ah, this is chicken soup the kitchen made especially for you. It's to replenish your body's energy."

Mu Lee's face reddened, why did she feel that there was a hidden meaning in the servant's words?

She quietly looked at Gu Tingchen, only to see Gu Tingchen putting down the newspaper, his calm face revealing a slight smile.

The servant placed a bowl in front of her. Just by smelling the soup, one would know that her culinary skills were stronger than hers, and it was extremely delicious, "Un, this chicken soup is so nice to drink, Gu Tingchen, you drink a little, too, I can't finish all this by myself."

"No need, they made this for you. You can have it." After he finished speaking, he continued to eat the porridge in front of him.

Mu Lee finished her bowl of chicken soup, and a servant brought another bowl over. Mu Lee waved her hands, "There's no need, I'm already full, just give it to Gu Tingchen to drink."

Gu Tingchen definitely had to work extremely hard to stay up all night to replenish his body.

"Madam, this chicken soup is specially used to nourish your body. You must have been tired last night, so drink more." The smile on the maid's face became even wider, and her eyes seemed to be glowing.

Hearing this, Mu Lee felt that something was amiss, she immediately looked at Gu Tingchen who was still smiling, only then did Mu Lee know that the maid seemed to have misunderstood something.

"That... "Actually, we …"

"I'm full. The car outside is still waiting for us. Eat faster." Gu Tingchen put down the tableware and immediately interrupted Mu Lee's words.

"Us? "Where are you going?" Mu Lee looked at Gu Tingchen, her face revealing a puzzled expression.

"Go back to the door." Gu Tingchen said before he directly sat in his wheelchair and walked towards the door.

Yes, on the third day of marriage, she should return home. But unfortunately, her mother wasn't home, so there really wasn't a need to return to Mu Family.

She actually hoped that Gu Tingchen would take her directly to the hospital to visit his mother.

Along the way, Mu Lee kept her head down and did not speak. Since she wasn't favoured in Mu Family, those people definitely wouldn't want to see her.

In case those people gave her face, Gu Tingchen's face would not be good.

Gu Tingchen saw that the woman seemed to be nervous, and directly pulled her hand, only to realize that her hand was covered in sweat.

"Are you afraid?"

"Nope." She pulled her hand back but did not pull it away.

"We are husband and wife." Gu Tingchen reminded Mu Lee, if she had anything she wanted to say, she could just directly say it to him.

Mu Lee wanted to say something but stopped herself. She raised her head and looked at Gu Tingchen's expression, "Mu Family and I … "We didn't get along well, I'm worried …"

Mu Family were all trying to curry favor with Gu Tingye, and they had even tacitly agreed to Mu Yan reneging on the marriage, secretly interacting with him. In their opinion, Gu Tingchen with his crippled legs was far less worth fawning over.

She didn't know what Mu Family would think of her husband after she entered the door. She was accustomed to being rolled her eyes, so how could her own husband be looked down upon now?

"Are you worried about me?" Gu Tingchen was in a good mood after hearing the little girl's words.

Mu Lee, "..." Could this man not focus on these things?

Even if Gu Tingchen hadn't been spoiled these past few years, he was still a Second Young Master of the Gu family.

If someone from the Mu Family treated him the same way he treated her, this man would definitely not be able to endure it.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

Gu Tingchen placed her hand on his leg, and looked forward. He did not see the corner of Mu Lee's eyes, which had instantly turned a little red.

Since young, other than his parents, no one else had ever spoken to him in such a warm manner.

The car stopped in front of the Mu Family entrance. Mu Lee got out of the car first, and then carefully helped Gu Tingchen into the wheelchair. Unexpectedly, the Mu Family gate was tightly shut, and there was not a single person in front of the gate.

Mu Lee's face revealed an awkward expression. She had already known that the Mu Family would not give him face, but she didn't expect that she would not even open the door.

"Don't the people from Mu Family know that today is the day Mr. Gu and Madam Gu return home?" When Yan Shu saw the tightly shut door, he could not help but shout out. Yan Shu knew that the person hiding inside could hear his words.

But Gu Tingchen did not care at all, as he held Mu Lee's hand and waited quietly.

"Tingchen, why don't we go back first?" It was likely that Gu Tingchen had never suffered such grievances since he was young.

Gu Tingchen still did not speak, and stubbornly waited outside. Seeing Gu Tingchen's fearsome expression, Yan Shu knew that the people from Mu Family today were going to suffer.

"Yan Shu." Gu Tingchen coldly called out to Yan Shu.

"Second Master." Yan Shu bowed slightly, waiting for his orders.

"The door blew open." A cold tone echoed throughout the entire street. From the calm expression on his face, he wasn't joking.
