Chapter 552


    Ziyue thought briefly and understood what Muchen meant. They had a controversial status in the


    Mogwin family. Thus, it would be unwise to bring Chuan and Ke with them.


    On the other hand, Muchen considered what he had done to Wu. If he had brought Chuan and Ke,


    Yuchuan would use the chance to retaliate.


    He looked at Ziyue sipping fruit juice and watched her momentarily before looking away.


    Wu was ruined. Thus, Yuchuan was furious and would likely search for a way to seek revenge.


    Muchen frowned as he thought about this.


    He had expected to go this far against Yuchuan.


    Suddenly, Jueyin appeared before them and said, "Hey, you two are back."


    It was a small-scale family gathering. Thus, it was a casual affair where everyone gathered to chat and


    drink. Thus, the atmosphere was quite tranquil and rxed.


    However, Jueyin''s loud voice immediately attracted people''s attention.


    Still, the other guests only nced at them briefly before looking away.


    Jueyin approached Muchen and lowered his voice. "See, you''ve scared these people."


    Muchen nced at him coldly and remained silent.


    Jueyin was bored by hisck of reaction and whispered something to his femalepanion, making


    herugh.


    Ziyue nced at Jueyin. He sensed her gaze and turned to her.


    Seeing that, she asked politely, "Did you go to the hospital for a follow-up? How''s your arm healing?"


    Jueyin''s arm was still in a cast. He wore an expensive suit and appeared no less gentlemanly and


    charming than usual. His noble birth likely imbued him with a dignity unaffected by external factors.


    Ziyue did not feel guilty about making Jueyin fall that day. However, as time passed, she gradually


    believed a misunderstanding could arise. Thus, she felt uneasy about it.


    "Hmm… I''m recovering quite well, but I still need to rest… I hope you enjoy your time here." Jueyin''s


    smile was a little stiff. He led his femalepanion away as soon as he finished speaking.


    Ziyue was stunned for a moment. His sense of prestige was a little puzzling to her.


    Since she did not know anyone in the Mogwin family, she could only swirl the drink in her ss in


    boredom after Jeuyin left with his femalepanion.


    Muchen returned to Country J as the president of LK Group. Furthermore, Yuchuan hinted that Muchen


    would be his sessor, further elevating his standing.


    Therefore, although Muchen sat still with an unapproachable demeanor, people would still try to get


    close to him.


    It did not matter whether he was in Country Z or J. There would always be people seeking to approach


    him due to his status. However, the method they used was slightly different.


    At this moment, a young man came to talk to Muchen.


    Muchen looked at him with a smile that did not meet his eyes and remained silent.


    The young man sensed Muchen''s disinterest and felt awkward. He turned to Ziyue andplimented


    her, "You are beautiful."


    Ziyue took note of his expression and nced at Muchen. Then, she nodded and smiled. "Thank you."


    The man seemed grateful for her response and left right away.


    However, Muchen''s expression darkened.


    "Let''s go to where Grandpa is." He pulled Ziyue''s hand and headed to where Yuchuan was.


    There were few people there. People likely maintained a respectful distance due to his advanced age


    and having the most respected status within the Mogwin family.


    asionally, someone woulde and talk to Yuchuan. However, it was only a brief exchange before


    the person left again. It showed how the family revered him.


    Ziyue always felt conflicted whenever she saw Yuchuan.


    "Grandpa." She and Muchen greeted him before sitting down.


    Yuchuan nced at them before turning to Zheng. "Bring me the chess set. I want to y a round with


    Muchen."


    Ziyue looked at Muchen with a surprised expression.


    The first half of Yuchuan''s words were directed at Zheng, but thetter half was to Muchen.


    Ziyue had lived with Muchen for a long time, but she never knew he could y chess.


    He knows how to cook, manage a business, paint, and even y chess… Is there anything he doesn''t


    know?


    Ziyue felt a warm hand covering her hand and sped it tightly. Then, she heard Muchen''s pleasant


    voice. "Let''s stay for a while before going home."


    His warm breath tickled her ear. Ziyue returned to her senses and saw Muchen''s kind expression


    before her.


    She nodded. "Sure."


    …


    However, Muchen and Yuchuan''s chess game dragged on for some time.


    Initially, Ziyue could understand some of the moves, but as the game went on, she could not figure out


    what they were doing anymore.


    The chess game had entered another deadlock. Muchen and Yuchuan were focused on figuring out


    their next steps.


    Ziyue had been seated there all this while and was unable to rx. Her body felt stiff.


    Thus, she wished to go out for a walk.


    She nced around and realized many people had left.


    The family gathering was only a formality, and most of the family members did not like it. Everyone had


    opinions about it but had no choice but to attend it.


    Therefore, some people quietly left while Yuchuan was not paying attention.


    In actuality, Yuchuan knew but deliberately ignored it.


    Meanwhile, Ziyue could not say anything as she did not wish to interrupt them.


    Muchen held a chess piece in one hand and let his other hand rest beside him. Ziyue squeezed his


    hand, prompting him to turn to her immediately.


    Ziyue blinked and mouthed, "I would like to go for a walk."


    Muchen raised his eyebrows and sped her soft hand.


    Thus, Ziyue had no choice but to whisper, "I''ll be back soon."


    Muchen realized she was probably bored sitting there by herself and nodded.


    That prompted Ziyue to smile. She got up immediately and made her way outside.


    …


    Mogwin Castle covered a vast area. Although Ziyue had lived here for some time, she was unfamiliar


    with the ce and did not dare to walk too far.


    Thus, she went to a quiet spot in the courtyard and sat down.


    It was the middle of summer, so the weather was usually hot. However, the courtyard felt cool in the


    evening.


    Ziyue satfortably on a bench and calcted Country Z''s time before sending Xia a message.


    Xia soon replied, and Ziyue began chatting with her.


    As they were having fun messaging each other, Ziyue suddenly heard a familiar male voice. "Don''t


    worry, sis. I''ll pick you up. You can travel here with ease."


    Ziyue was seated in an area surrounded by lush trees. It was also quite far from the lights.This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .


    Furthermore, she was under a tree and shrouded by its shadow.


    She looked around to find out where the voice came from.


    In the end, she focused on the bushes on the front right. She could vaguely see a tall and slender male


    figure under the dim light.


    His side profile seemed familiar to her.


    The man was still talking on the phone with a gentle tone. He was calling his younger sister.


    Wait…


    Of the people I know, only a few guys have a younger sister…


    Other than Enyang and Chuan, who else?


    The man''s appearance and voice were unlike Chuan''s.


    Thus, it could only be Enyang.


    Ziyue''s heart constricted nervously, and she could not help but clench her fists. Her heart trembled as


    she quietly pressed her phone''s power button, causing the screen to go off instantly.


    At the same time, she hid in the darkness.


    Meanwhile, Enyang had just finished his call.


    Ziyue frowned and stared at where Enyang was.


    Enyang was a cautious man. He seemed to have sensed Ziyue''s gaze and looked in her direction.


    Although Ziyue knew he could not see her, she could not help but feel nervous.


    As she thought, Enyang could not see her. At the same time, she could not see his expression either.


    However, Enyang sensed something and was about to walk in her direction.


    Enyang entrusted Enxue to Muchen and impersonated Xingyan to live with Ziyue for two years.


    However, he did not do it as ast resort. It was part of his n.


    He was a core figure in Gricy. Thus, such schemes were natural to him.


    Therefore, if one were to look at them now from another perspective, it seemed Enyang and Ziyue


    were standing on the opposing side.


    Ziyue gripped her phone. If Enyang came near, she would smash her phone against his head and run


    away as fast as possible.


    However, before Enyang coulde closer, someone suddenly called him.


    They lowered their heads and whispered something between them. Unfortunately, their voices were too


    soft. Thus, Ziyue could only vaguely hear the word ''Lagos'' before they walked away.


    Ziyue breathed a sigh of relief.


    She dared not stay there any longer and returned to the main hall.


    At the same time, she could not stop thinking about what had happened just now.


    Enyang had likely called Enxue. From their words, it seemed Enxue would be heading to Country J.


    Then, Enyang mentioned ''Lagos'' to another person.


    Lagos is the leader of Gricy. They were talking about him. Also, why are they in Mogwin Castle?


    How did they get in?
