Mu Sijue asked simply and casually. It seemed that he just inadvertently remembered Xu Youning and then asked casually.

However, Ah Jin could still hear the concern in his tone.

Ah Jin didn’t understand. Xu Youning had once worked undercover, so she naturally had extraordinary physique and mental fortitude. What was there for Mu Sijue to worry about for her?

The most important thing was that Xu Youning had secret relations with Kang Ruicheng. She didn’t deserve Mu Sijue’s care at all!

“Seventh Brother, she’s fine!” Ah Jin said while gnashing his teeth.

“…” Mu Sijue was silent for a long time, and he still couldn’t help confirming with Ah Jin. “Did she feel uncomfortable after she went back?”

On the second day at noon, after being taken back to the villa in City A, Xu Youning fainted for no reason. Although Song Jiqing said that she just didn’t have a good rest, there were another two attacks of the disease every time when Xu Youning hit her head.

He had questioned Song Jiqing’s diagnosis.

Song Jiqing only replied that on the surface, Xu Youning was just too tired. As for whether there was any problem inside her body, his eyes were not piercing enough to make a diagnosis. It was the best way to take Xu Youning to do a detailed general check-up.

However, on the way to the hospital, Xu Youning jumped out of the car and ran away. Mu Sijue had restrained himself for so many days, but he still risked contacting Ah Jin to inquire about Xu Youning’s state after she went back.

He knew that it was irrational, but he crazily wanted to make sure that nothing had happened to Xu Youning.

Ah Jin was confused. “Seventh Brother, why did you ask if Xu Youning felt uncomfortable? Xu Youning is fine. Today, she and Kang Ruicheng…”

In the middle of his words, Ah Jin suddenly stopped as if he had bitten his tongue.

Mu Sijue had already perceived something. He asked in a cold voice, “What about Xu Youning and Kang Ruicheng?”

“…”

Ah Jin finally understood what it meant to be in a dilemma.

Mu Sijue’s unexpected call was just for the sake of inquiring about Xu Youning’s recent situation. Obviously, Mu Sijue was concerned about Xu Youning.

In other words, Mu Sijue seemed to have fallen in love with someone who was the last person he could love.

If Ah Jin told Mu Sijue that Xu Youning and Kang Ruicheng stayed in the same room in broad daylight, Mu Sijue would definitely be angry.

But he had already said half of it, and if he didn’t finish speaking, Mu Sijue would also be angry.

Thinking of this, Ah Jin decided to throw caution to the wind.

It didn’t matter even if he would die, as long as he could make Mu Sijue give up on Xu Youning!

“Half an hour ago, Xu Youning and Kang Ruicheng were in the room with the door being closed. I couldn’t see any sign of discomfort on Xu Youning at all!”

“…”

The mobile phone fell into a dead silence. Ah Jin could feel the coldness and anger from Mu Sijue even in the next city.

Shouldn’t he tell the truth?

As soon as Ah Jin thought of the consequences of Mu Sijue’s anger, a shiver ran down his spine.

Just when Ah Jin felt that he was about to be frozen, Mu Sijue’s voice finally came, “No matter what happened between her and Kang Ruicheng, keep an eye on her. If you find any signs of her illness, contact me immediately.”

It seemed that Mu Sijue was not angry, was he?

Ah Jin let out a sigh of relief. “I got it.”

“Also—” Mu Sijue added, “from now on, if Xu Youning goes out, find a way to contact Boyan.”

This time, Ah Jin didn’t know what Mu Sijue was going to do, or he couldn’t believe it.

Xu Youning had deceived, betrayed, and escaped from Mu Sijue several times.

Xu Youning not only broke all the taboos against Mu Sijue’s rules but also had an ambiguous relationship with Kang Ruicheng.

Mu Sijue still wanted to take her back, nevertheless.

Ah Jin would rather believe that Mu Sijue took Xu Youning back so as to take revenge on her.

He dared not imagine that Mu Sijue could forgive everything Xu Youning had done.

Was Mu Sijue still the one that everyone was afraid of?

At this time, Ah Jin still didn’t understand that no matter how incredible some things were, they did exist.

Such as Mu Sijue’s love for Xu Youning.

Such as Mu Sijue’s concern about Xu Youning, which was the reason why he asked Ah Jin to pay attention to her.

However, Mu Sijue had never expected to hear the news that Xu Youning stayed with Kang Ruicheng.

“Bang—”

Hanging up the phone, Mu Sijue abruptly crushed the glass in his hand.

After the exquisite cup was broken into pieces in his hand, he did not loosen his grip. Instead, he didn’t care if the glass pieces were piercing his palm. The blood soon dyed his hand red, but he did not seem to feel any pain. There was only a gloomy and cold look on his face.

He had long realized the relationship between Xu Youning and Kang Ruicheng. However, when Ah Jin told him about it so frankly, he still wanted to go to City A immediately and bring Xu Youning back from Kang Ruicheng, regardless of the price.

Fortunately, he was not completely insane, and he could realize that Kang Ruicheng wanted his life. Once he got close to the old house of the Kang family, Xu Youning would not come back with him. Additionally, she would probably kill him in person to avenge her grandma.

He couldn’t go to find Xu Youning so rashly.

Thinking of this, Mu Sijue smiled bitterly.

Xu Youning could trust Kang Ruicheng unconditionally, but she did not want to trust him at all.

If she had had a little trust in him and hadn’t insisted that he was the one who had killed Granny Xu, he would have been willing to tell her who exactly had killed her grandmother.

However, she had always firmly believed that he was the murderer.

What’s even sadder was that in this case, he still hoped that Xu Youning would be fine. He hoped that, as Song Jiqing had said, she was really tired and she would be fine after having some sleep.

“Little Seven!”

When Aunt Zhou passed by Mu Sijue’s room, she accidentally saw his bloody right hand. She was so scared that she gasped and hurried to find a medicine box, dragged Mu Sijue to sit down, and dealt with his wound.

“Aunt Zhou,” Mu Sijue said lightly, “I’m okay.”

“How could you say so when the pieces of glass are penetrating into your hand!” Aunt Zhou took out the pieces of glass with a sterile cane. She sighed and said, “You’ve been like this since you were a child. You didn’t make a sound even when you were injured. If no one had found it, no one would have known that you were in pain.”

Mu Sijue just said, “It’s just a little cut. There’s no need.”

It was not until then that Aunt Zhou felt that something was wrong. “By the way, how did you get hurt?”

“…” This time, Mu Sijue didn’t reply for a long time.

Aunt Zhou looked at the pieces of glass on the ground and soon understood. She carefully bandaged Mu Sijue’s wound. In the end, she asked inadvertently, “Little Seven, did you see Youning when you went to City A this time?”

Mu Sijue looked at Aunt Zhou in surprise. Was it so obvious from his behavior?

“After you came back from City A this time, I have always felt that there was something wrong with you. You must have seen Youning, right?” Aunt Zhou gently patted Mu Sijue’s shoulder. “Aunt Zhou is not afraid of annoying you. I’ll tell you again: If you miss her, bring her back.”

Mu Sijue looked out of the window with a somewhat gloomy look.

After a long while, he replied gently, “Hmm.”

Aunt Zhou was stunned and paused for a long time while she was packing up the medicine box.

Since Xu Youning was gone for such a long time, Aunt Zhou had persuaded Mu Sijue to bring Xu Youning back more than once. There was still a long way to go for the rest of their lives. If someone was gone now, there would be no chance to get her back in the future.

In the past, Mu Sijue had always turned a deaf ear to her words.

But this time, he unexpectedly promised Aunt Zhou.

For a moment, Aunt Zhou was so happy that she didn’t know what to say. A smile appeared on her face with signs of aging.

After Aunt Zhou left the room, Mu Sijue made a phone call to Lu Boyan and first asked about Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun.

“It’s all settled.” Lu Boyan said, “Don’t worry.”

“There’s one more thing—” Mu Sijue said, “Since you’re in City A, help me keep an eye on Xu Youning’s whereabouts. If possible, keep her under your control, and I’ll go to get her back.”

Lu Boyan said lightly, “I’ve long been paying attention to it for your sake.”

Mu Sijue remembered that he had never mentioned Xu Youning before to Lu Boyan. He frowned in confusion and asked, “How did you know I was going to get her back?”

“Yuechuan told me that, but I haven’t had an appropriate opportunity to control Xu Youning.” Lu Boyan changed the subject. “Also, Kang Ruicheng’s son has returned to China.”

Mu Sijue smiled meaningfully and said, “How dare he bring his son back?”

“The child sneaked back by himself.” Lu Boyan finally got to the point and said, “It’s said that Xu Youning has a good relationship with the child.”

In an instant, Mu Sijue’s voice magically went cold. “I’m not interested in these things. Keep an eye on Xu Youning.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Sijue hung up the phone. He snorted coldly, looking at the phone.

If Xu Youning liked children, they could have quite a few children in the future!

Simultaneously, after Mu Sijue abruptly hung up, Lu Boyan was not angry at all. Instead, there was even a smile on his lips.

As soon as he put away his phone, the company’s driver told him, “Boss Lu, we’ve arrived at the mall.”

After lunch, Su Jian’an, Luo Xiaoxi, and others went shopping. The shopping didn’t end until the whole afternoon. When Lu Boyan got off work, he came to pick Su Jian’an up.

Walking into the mall, Lu Boyan found that Su Yicheng was also there. He called him and asked, “Where are Jian’an and the others?”

Su Yicheng spread out his hands. “Xiaoxi just told me that they were in this mall.”

Lu Boyan dialed Su Jian’an’s number and called Su Yicheng. “They shouldn’t be on the first floor. Go upstairs.”

Although Lu Boyan and Su Yicheng were not single, they were more charming than before, so there were still many people who were obsessed with them.

It was rare for the two handsome boys to appear simultaneously in the same spot in public, so the shoppers were not in the mood to choose the goods in an instant. They gathered around and were even ready to take photos but were soon stopped by the security guards.

Upstairs, Su Jian’an noticed the noise and smiled. “Boyan should have arrived. Let’s go downstairs.”

Xiao Yunyun was sitting in a wheelchair, so they could only choose to take the elevator. When they got down, they saw Lu Boyan and Su Yicheng, who were ready to go upstairs.

“Boyan!” Su Jian’an called Lu Boyan.

The moment Lu Boyan looked across at her, she still felt that her heartbeat was going to be out of control.

Lu Boyan and Su Yicheng almost simultaneously walked toward the elevator and naturally took the things from their respective wives.

Su Jian’an held Lu Boyan’s hand and said, “I picked a great shirt for you!”

Lu Boyan tilted his head and kissed Su Jian’an’s hair. “I’ll put it on for you tomorrow.”

At the same time, Su Yicheng and Luo Xiaoxi were also very intimate to each other.

Xiao Yunyun, who was sitting between the two couples, felt that she was too pitiful.

“Oh, no! I want Shen Yuechuan!”
