Young Master Lu’s Lovely New Bride

“So, you should know what to do with Tian Zhen.”

Xu Youning heard those words while walking downstairs.

Tian Zhen… the one she could hardly recall—the large wound on her hand was made in the bar the other day by Tian Zhen with a broken bottle.

That day Mu Sijue was in Mexico, he asked her about it on the phone. She briefed him on what had happened, without expecting that Mu Sijue would keep the trifle in mind.

However, he had chosen to abandon her to retain his business when her life was threatened. Why had he kept that trifle in mind?

Maybe it was because Mu Sijue’s authority would brook no offense.

The bar belonged to him, so it was an offense to his authority to hurt his staff in it. He was just asking Zhao Yinghong to teach Tian Zhen a lesson to highlight his authority.

With all that in mind, Xu Youning became much calmer. Then she slowly went downstairs and leaned close to Mu Sijue, with a charming smile on her face.

Mu Sijue naturally held Xu Youning in his arm while fondling her hair at leisure with his lean fingers, which made others think that they were an ordinary couple who were immersed in love.

Zhao Yinghong noticed the scratches on her neck and collarbones, then he thought for a while and said, “Sijue, take it easy. I’ll teach Tian Zhen a lesson!”

Mu Sijue sniffed Xu Youning’s hair without a word, with a faint satisfied look on his face.

Zhao Yinghong smiled and said, “Tian Zhen works for me. Now that he hurt Miss Xu, I have to accept personal responsibility. I must say sorry to Miss Xu!” After thinking for a while, he continued, “How about the Marriott Club? The breakfast there is popular among ladies. Let me treat Miss Xu! Sijue, you can play golf with me on its roof!”

Xu Youning’s gaze was fixed as she began to think. “Mu Sijue hasn’t recovered yet. He can’t play golf at all.”

She looked at Mu Sijue, trying to come up with an excuse to decline Zhao Yinghong’s invitation, as she felt a slight pinch on her palm.

Then she heard Mu Sijue leisurely say, “OK. I haven’t played for some time.”

With that, Mu Sijue held Xu Youning in his arm and stood up to go toward the gate.

Xu Youning couldn’t figure out what the plan in Mu Sijue’s mind was. She didn’t dare to ask him, nor did she dare to show her worry, so she walked with him like a lovable bird.

Zhao Yinghong followed and watched Mu Sijue. When they reached the parking lot, he suddenly said, “Sijue, I heard that you love car racing, right?”

Mu Sijue said, “That’s right.”

“Well, in my old age, I’ve recently been obsessed with The Fast and the Furious.” Zhao Yinghong knocked on his fancy Mercedes and said, “How about a race?”

“…”

“…”

Mu Sijue opened the door of his car and said, “Now that you are looking forward to it, how could I say no?” Then he gave Xu Youning a look and said, “Get in the car.”

Xu Youning did as he asked and sat in the passenger seat. While fastening the seat belt, she said in a low voice, “Why did you promise him? You will open up your wound!”

“If I didn’t promise him, he wouldn’t leave readily.” Mu Sijue started his car and said, “Hang on. We’re going to put on a show for Zhao Yinghong.”

Zhao Yinghong’s gaze was burning, and through the window, he could see Mu Sijue’s inherent calmness on his stony face.

Kang Ruicheng had told him that Mu Sijue was seriously injured. From Mu Sijue’s appearance, however, he didn’t see anything abnormal. What’s more, in the Old House of the Mu family, he had noticed the hickey-like marks on Xu Youning’s neck.

“If Mu Sijue is seriously injured, how can he stay with Xu Youning overnight?” Zhao Yinghong thought.

“But, Kang Ruicheng has no reason to deceive me.”

Zhao Yinghong decided to find out the truth and he stepped on the accelerator, then his car drew level with Mu Sijue’s.

In fact, they could only race their cars on the road between the old district and the boulevard.

It was a short road with several turns; only the more skillful one could be in the lead. Zhao Yinghong didn’t underestimate Mu Sijue while expecting Mu Sijue not to play well.

If he won the race, he would be sure that Mu Sijue was injured.

It turned out to be a disappointment; his car was left behind twice by Mu Sijue’s at the turns. The black Land Rover ran like a nimble tiger under Mu Sijue’s control. Zhao Yinghong thought, “It’s unlikely that an injured man can do this.”

Outside the old district, Zhao Yinghong caught up with Mu Sijue. He rolled down the window and said, “Oh, I almost forget that it’s daytime now. If we go on, the traffic police will catch us. Let’s end it in a draw. I’ll play with you again sometime.”

“As you wish,” Mu Sijue said. Then he slowed the car down and put up the driver’s window.

Xu Youning asked at once, “How are you feeling now?”

It had exhausted Mu Sijue to make turns, speed up, and leave Zhao Yinghong behind. He must have split open his wound, though Xu Youning didn’t see him in pain from the look on his face.

“I’m all right,” Mu Sijue said, sweating from his temples. “Tell Ah Guang to take a medical kit to the Marriott Club.”

Xu Youning called Ah Guang right away and told him what Mu Sijue said. Then she tried to come up with a countermeasure while murmuring to herself.

“… The race is just the first part of Zhao Yinghong’s plan. Next, he will ask you again to play golf with him.

“… You’ve split your wound open. If you play golf with him, your bleeding wound will betray you… Even if your clothes can cover up your blood, you won’t play well because of your pain. And Zhao Yinghong will see through you.

“… We have to find a way, so that he will give up the idea of playing golf with you.”

“…”

Mu Sijue turned his head and saw Xu Youning gnawing on her lips, with anxiety and worry in her eyes.

If he hadn’t known about her true identity, he probably would have believed that Xu Youning had feelings for him.

Before long, the car stopped in front of the Marriott Club, and Mu Sijue interrupted Xu Youning. “Here we are.”

Xu Youning seemed to be at a loss, then she suddenly looked up and said, “I got it!”

She held Mu Sijue’s hand and walked into the club. As soon as she went into the lift, she pushed him into a corner. He frowned and asked, “What’s that?”

“Only by doing so can we make Zhao Yinghong give up his plan!”

With that, Xu Youning kissed Mu Sijue’s lips, taking his hands to put around her waist, and said in a low voice, “Act!”

Mu Sijue got her point but intentionally asked, “Like what?”

“Didn’t I make myself clear?” Xu Youning didn’t notice Mu Sijue’s look. She stamped her feet with anxiety and said, “As if you’re burning with desire!”

Just then, there came the waiter’s voice. “Good morning, Mr. Zhao. Mr. Mu is waiting for you in the lift.”

Thinking that it would be too late, Xu Youning felt so anxious that she wanted to bite him. “Mu Sijue!”

As soon as her voice died down, Mu Sijue encircled her waist with his arms and turned around, then she was pressed in the corner, and Mu Sijue’s warm lips covered hers.

After a light kiss, he was eager to part her upper and bottom teeth with his tongue. He sucked her lips like crazy while holding her more tightly, with a desire to pull her into his body.

Xu Youning was a bit stunned.

She thought, “Mu Sijue was calm just a second ago! Why did he change so quickly?

“Damn! Men think with only their private parts, sure enough!”

While in Mu Sijue’s eyes, the time he saw Xu Youning show up in his shirt, he had wanted to do the same thing, and Xu Youning was teasing him.

Then things got a little too real for the two. As they kissed more deeply, a romantic and sexy atmosphere gradually filled up the lift.

Zhao Yinghong walked into the lift with his men, without expecting to see the two burning with desire. He said, “Wow,” and became stunned, wondering whether to enter the lift or not.

With so many people seeing them kissing each other, Xu Youning felt like every cell in her body was saying no. However, in order to deceive Zhao Yinghong, she had to pretend that she had immersed herself in it.

While Mu Sijue was enjoying their kissing, he fondled Xu Youning from her waist to her neck. As his hot lips touched her neck, he gave her a playful bite.

Xu Youning let out a little cry of pain and subconsciously wanted to step on Mu Sijue’s foot. Realizing that Zhao Yinghong and his men were outside the lift, she had to grumble coyly, “Oh, honey.” With that, she opened her eyes.

Seeing Zhao Yinghong’s confused and curious face, Xu Youning feigned surprise. Then she blushed, trying to push Mu Sijue away and said, “They are here.”

Mu Sijue held Xu Youning in his arms and gave her earlobe a sexy bite. “It’s not an excuse.”

Xu Youning was nearly driven crazy and she thought, “It’s not my excuse. You will mess it up!”

However, knowing that Zhao Yinghong was there watching them, Xu Youning had to keep her temper. She thumped Mu Sijue’s shoulder and said, “Don’t you see them!?”

After continuing his kiss for a while, Mu Sijue released Xu Youning. Then he looked back, leisurely raising his eyebrow, and said to Zhao Yinghong, “Uncle Zhao, do you mind waiting for us?”

That day, Zhao Yinghong had wanted to find out if Mu Sijue was injured. However, finding nothing abnormal about Mu Sijue on the way from the Old House of the Mu family to the club, his resolve had been stirred. He didn’t dare to push Mu Sijue too hard, because he knew that if Mu Sijue was fine, he would suffer in the future.

“I almost forget that I have errands to run,” Zhao Yinghong said and waved his hands. “Sijue, go on. I must leave now. I’d like to drink with you sometime.”

Mu Sijue said, “Sure thing.” Before seeing Zhao Yinghong leave, he turned and kissed Xu Youning’s lips. “Go to the room upstairs.”

“Oh, youth.” Zhao Yinghong laughed and left. Before long, the elevator doors closed.

After acting all that morning, Xu Youning finally felt relieved and pushed Mu Sijue away.

Beyond her expectation, Mu Sijue was forced to step back, and he was unable to keep his feet until he leaned against the elevator wall.

Xu Youning felt worried and asked, “Are you all right?”

With his forehead constantly sweating, Mu Sijue said in a feeble voice, “Call Ah Guang. What’s the room number?”

Xu Youning called Ah Guang in a hurry.
