Chapter 204

“Why don’t I stay for a while longer? Boss, you should take a nap since you’ve been awake for the entire night.” It

was four in the morning, and the sun had already risen.

Nan Chuan had suggested that out of kindness because he was worried about Qin Muchen’s health. In the end, all

he got was an unusually frigid stare from Qin Muchen, who asked him with a faint voice, “Do I need you to take care

of my wife?”

Nan Chuan chuckled in his mind. Of course not, he thought. Yet, he only dared to make such a comment in his

mind.

Still looking all smiles, he asked again, “Boss, do you need anything else? I can bring it here for you.”

“Bring my laptop here.”

“Okay.”

Su Ziyue had a fitful sleep the entire night. Every time she wanted to flip to the other side, she would be stopped by

an unknown force. She woke up at the crack of dawn, and as soon as she moved, Qin Muchen, who was lying next

to her, said, “Don’t move.”

Her heart shook the moment she heard his voice. Over the past ten or so days, she had never heard his voice when

she woke up in the morning. Now that things had returned to how it used to be before they had their argument, she

felt like she was in a dream.

“Let me help you sit up.” Qin Muchen’s voice came once again, interrupting her train of thought.

Before he offered to help her, he seemed to have first placed something on the bedside table. After helping her sit

upright, he made her lie on her side again. Su Ziyue twisted her head and saw that he had placed a laptop on the

bedside table. Qin Muchen then turned to fiddle with his laptop before turning back to check on her.

Although she felt lethargic after her sleep, she still had quite a good rest. Color had started returning to her face,

which had been pale the previous day, but she still looked a far cry from how she usually looked. But her progress

was satisfactory enough.

Qin Muchen tilted his head and headed straight for her face to kiss her. Su Ziyue, who forgot to dodge it, spotted

the black circles beneath his eyes as soon as she looked up; she also noticed the weariness on his face which he

failed to conceal. Qin Muchen moved away from her after she gave him a soft push.

“Did you stay awake for the entire night yesterday?” Su Ziyue asked him.

“I was busy with work,” he seemed to be unwilling to elaborate and only replied to her in an apathetic tone before

getting out of the bed. After that, he took his laptop and busied himself with it for a while before he helped Su Ziyue

brush her teeth and wash her face. He did it in the same way as the previous night.

Su Ziyue still felt slightly awkward during the process. Then, the doctor visited her and left after telling her the

condition of her body and prescribing some medicine for her.

An Xia came to the hospital to visit her in the afternoon. “This year is indeed one full of disasters and suffering for

you,” she commented. She frowned at the sight of Su Ziyue who was lying sideways on the bed, unable to move.

Last time, she was poisoned by Su Yige, and now, she got stabbed by a gangster. Luckily, she survived both times.

She had been informed of the fact that Su Ziyue was all right by Nan Chuan, whom she had asked when she was

outside just now.

Su Ziyue flashed her a faint smile. “It’s okay. Good fortune will follow after disasters.”

“I can’t believe you still have the mood to smile!” An Xia shot her a glare before she started peeling an apple for

her. While she was at it, she questioned Su Ziyue, “Why did you suddenly encounter a bunch of gangsters? Why

didn’t you just give them money when they asked for it? Staying alive is more important, and besides, you’ve got

plenty of money.”

Nan Chuan had not given her a detailed account just now, and he only told her that Su Ziyue had bumped into a

bunch of gangsters. Indeed, those guys who had intercepted Su Ziyue and Qin Muchen were a bunch of thugs.

“Okay, I’ll give them money the next time something like this happens.” Curling the corners of her lips upward into

a smile, Su Ziyue went along with what she said as warmth spread in her heart.

But her comment did not please An Xia at all. “Next time?!”

Su Ziyue quickly rectified, “There won’t be a next time. I’ll be safe and sound for the rest of my life.”

“That’s more like it.” After cutting the apple into several pieces, An Xia fed some of them to Su Ziyue.

In Su Ziyue’s opinion, An Xia treated her even better than her parents. Yet, the memory she had of her father was

frozen at more than ten years ago because she had not seen him since then. Everytime she thought about it, her

heart would fill with sorrow.

After some chit-chatting, An Xia looked like something had just struck her all of a sudden when she said, “Mu

Ninghui was arrested for assault. Do you know about it?”

Astonishment flickered on Su Ziyue’s face. “Was he? Who did he assault?”

“Apparently he hurt the butler who works for his family. I wonder why the butler called the police and why his

parents, who treat him like the apple of their eyes, let him get arrested without doing anything to help. Don’t you

think it’s strange?”

Mu Ninghui had a bad reputation in Yunzhou City, and almost everyone who lived in the city knew how much Mu

Ninghui’s parents indulged him. The countless bad deeds and mischiefs Mu Ninghui had done in the past were all

covered up by his family in the end. Surprisingly, Mu Ninghui was actually arrested for hurting his family’s butler this

time, and the news had become widespread.

For a prominent family like the Mu Family, assaulting a butler was not a big deal at all. It was something which could

be easily covered up, or they could offer the butler some money and send him away. But the strange thing was, the

butler did not choose to settle it in private. Pulling her mind back to reality, Su Ziyue agreed with An Xia. “It is rather

weird.”

“What’s more, the share price of Mu Group fell sharply, and it’s still falling right now. From what I’ve heard, many

companies have already canceled their partnerships with them. In my opinion, they must have offended someone

to suffer like this…” An Xia stared at Su Ziyue with her eyes widened as if she was trying to get some clues from

her.

Although Su Ziyue was injured, she was still nosy and curious about the matter. After giving it some thought, she

asked An Xia, “Who do you think is capable of sabotaging them in Yunzhou City?”

An Xia fell silent and mulled it over for a while before answering, “In my opinion, there are two possible scenarios.

The first one is that the Su Family and the Gong Family have joined forces, but this isn’t likely because after all, they

have to maintain a harmonious relationship between the families. As for the second scenario…”

Su Ziyue, who did not enjoy suspense, urged, “Spill it.”

“Of course it’s Mr. Qin!” An Xia stared at Su Ziyue unflinchingly. “Other than Mr. Qin, who else do you think has such

power?”

Qin Muchen? It was not totally impossible, but what could be his motive for doing so?

At that juncture, Qin Muchen happened to open the door and walk inside. He had changed into a fresh set of

clothes. Still dressed in full-black, he gave off a tranquil yet mysterious aura. Although people wearing such dark

colors would usually go unnoticed, it did not stop him from attracting attention.

“You girls have chatted for two hours already. It’s time to take a break.” He walked over and served Su Ziyue a

glass of water.

An Xia covered her eyes in a melodramatic way as she exclaimed, “Can you guys be more considerate? It’s not

right to bully me like that!”

Qin Muchen glanced at An Xia. “Are we bullying you?”

An Xia shrunk her neck and explained in a hushed tone, “You guys are bullying me by behaving all lovey-dovey in

front of a single person like me.”

Qin Muchen seemed to understand her as he nodded at her. Then, he stared at her with his eyes brimming with

disdain. “This is nothing. I’ve even helped her brush her teeth.”

Stunned, An Xia could sense his intention to show off from his tone. Su Ziyue averted her head in embarrassment.

“What nonsense are you talking about…” Can he not share stuff like that to others? It was outright embarrassing.

“It’s the truth.” Qin Muchen turned around to place the glass down on the table, looking unflustered.

Su Ziyue was speechless.
