Chapter 487
Ziyue waited for Muchen to say something.
But Muchen didn''t say a word, although she kept waiting for some time.
Ziyue rushed him again, "Tell me who''s the culprit."
Muchen fixed his eyes on the road ahead. And when Ziyue was about to get flustered, only then he
said, "I don''t know."
"Are you sure?" Ziyue didn''t believe him. She knew Muchen was hiding something from her.
Muchen then said to her, "We''re home."
Then only Ziyue realized that she was bogged down in their conversation, that she had lost her sense
of time and that they had arrived home.
After getting off the car, Ziyue intended to probe him some more, but her intention was disrupted by the
needy Zixi, who was craving her attention.
…
Although Xiyi had advised Muchen to prioritize rest over work, the workload umted over time had
gotten out of hand.
Not only for Muchen but for Ziyue as well.
Ziyue tried to devise a n with Muchen, "You can work in the morning. In the noon, you can nap with
Zixi and y with him in the afternoon."
Muchen raised his eyebrow. He didn''t say yes or no, but asked her, "What about you?"
On a whim, Ziyue thought of teasing him. She hid her mischief and said solemnly, "I''m going back to
the office to work and be the breadwinner of our family. While you can be a stay-at-home father and
manage our home and child. What do you think? Am I not a perfect wife and the most impable
woman a man could ever have?
After she finished speaking, she couldn''t help but burst into aughing fit first.
But Muchen still looked stolid, as if he couldn''t catch Ziyue''s humor.
Subsequently, Muchen tenderly pinched her face and said, "Of course."
He didn''t sound or look joking at all. Having said that, he also fixed his bewitching eyes on Ziyue, and
thetter was enthralled by his charm.
Ziyue blinked, touched her own cheek and said mischievously, "Okay then, I''ll go back to the office
tomorrow."
Muchen just responded lightly, "Okay."
Because Muchen didn''t dispute her intention, Ziyue suddenly remembered her previous n.
She pondered and then said in all seriousness, "Muchen, I''ve thought about it before and still think you
should acquire Feng Group. I don''t want to strain with frequent business trips to Jincheng City."
If Muchen refused to acquire Feng Group, it would be inevitable for her to travel back and forth to
Jingcheng City in the future.
She had no desire for the kind of hectic lifestyle that required her to be away from her family all the
time. She just wanted to lead a stable lifestyle where she could be with her family.
If Muchen agreed to acquire Feng Group, he could just send someone from thepany to manage
Feng Group in Jingcheng City. Then, she can stay in Yunzhou City and continue working in Yanyue
Group.
Muchen refused her suggestion immediately, "No way."
"Why not?" Ziyue was puzzled. Wouldn''t Muchen want an easy way out as well?
Due to his deteriorating health condition, he required her to travel to Jingcheng City to handle Feng
Group''s affair.
Muchen exined to her patiently, "I can get someone to take over your work in Feng Group if you''re
feeling overwhelmed orzy. If not, I can take over your responsibility as well. But it is impossible for
me to acquire Feng Group."
The Feng family was the most affluent in the northern region. Feng Group was a family-owned
business handed down from their forefathers for many generations. However, the Feng family had very
few children and heirs to assume the family empire. After the passing of Feng Shujing and Feng
Xingyan, Ziyue became the sole heir of Feng Group.
The acquisition of Feng Group would be a clever move for Muchen. Still, the threat of Gricy hadn''t been
eradicated yet. Suppose LK Group acquired and merged Feng Group into its corporation. In that case,
it might lead to a double-whammy situation that would jeopardize both LK Group and Feng Group.
Even though it was just an inference, he didn''t see the need to acquire Feng Group now since it
belonged to Ziyue.
In other words, Gricy''s ultimate target was LK Group. Gricy could find a loophole to infiltrate LK''s
headquarters in Country J.
Feng Group was also thergest leading organization in Country Z which directly impacted Country Z''s
economy. But if Gricy was daring enough to tread on their toes, then Gricy would be hounded by a
nation as influential as Country Z.
Gricy was undoubtedly savage, but their influence and territory were only rooted in Europe. So, they
were still apprehensive about Country Z.
"If that''s the case, why won''t you acquire Feng Group?" Ziyue was tenacious in terms of acquiring Feng
Group.
Muchen leaned over and pecked her lips. He soothed her troubled heart with his deep voice, "There''s
no point for an acquisition to take ce. But I can get someone to manage Feng Group for you."
Ziyue snorted in displeasure as she caught the disdain in his tone. It was no big deal if he refused to
acquire Feng Group. She didn''t need him to find someone to manage Feng Group for her. She could
handle it just fine.
…
The next few days, life was a bed of roses for Ziyue.
Just like she had suggested, she went to work, and Muchen took care of Zixi and their household
matters.
Every night after work, she came home to Muchen and Zixi watering the nts in the yard like other
regr father and sons.
Muchen was home every day, so didn''t need to wear his suits and ties. Instead, he would wear lounge
clothes, and his short hair made him look so much younger than his actual age.
Yet, this tranquil life was too good to be true to Ziyue.
She couldn''t help but pine over Yannan''s death, Enyang''s disappearance, and the culprit that goaded
Yannan to infect Muchen...
These question marks hadn''t been resolved yet. Their lives might seem unaffected, but the anxiety
from the lingering doubts and suspicions were still atrge.
But seeing that Muchen was unperturbed, Ziyue didn''t want to overthink.
One day, Ziyue came home to see two bodyguards carrying a loaded sack.
Ziyue was fazed, "What is in the sack?"
One of the bodyguards quickly said, "These are perishables that have rotten and are no longer edible.
The servants overbought some groceries the other day, and they went bad before they could cook it."
So many rotten perishables?!
Although suspicious Ziyue still assented.
Subsequently, the bodyguards left the vi with the sack.
Ziyue looked back unthinkingly and saw a red stain on the rim of the sack. Is that blood?
They said the sack was loaded with rotten perishables, so there should be poultries and meat in it.
Ziyue didn''t think too much about it and went straight into the vi.
"Where''s Mr. Qin?" Ziyue asked the servant as soon as she entered the vi.
The servant responded promptly, "Mr. Qin and the young master are in the study room."
Ziyue acknowledged with a nod, then went straight to the study room.
She entered the study room and found Muchen writing something at the desk with Zixi sitting on his
desk. He was holding and ying with something in his hand while bbering away.
The harmonious sight put a smile on her face.
"Zixi, Mommy is home!" Ziyue closed the door and walked over.

As soon as Zixi saw Ziyue, he propped up and fluttered his arms at Ziyue wanting her to hold him.
Ziyue picked him up and kissed him on the cheek, "Were you a good boy today, my baby?"
Zixi flickered his long eyshes and eximed, "Good boy!"
Without a doubt, he looked overjoyed.
Muchen nced at the mother and son duo, then lowered his eyes again.
"What are you doing?" Ziyue held Zixi in her arms, walked up to Muchen, and realized he was writing
an invitation. She asked in confusion, "What''s the invitation for? What''s the asion?"
Muchen exined, "It''s Zixi''s second birthday in a few days."
Ziyue asked, "Are you throwing a party for him?"
Muchen responded with a sinct affirmative.
Ziyue nced at the invitation cards and found that he didn''t just invite his business partners but some
other people like Yunan...
