Chapter 554


    Muchen won the battle of wits and had his sweet time with Ziyue that night.


    However, to Ziyue''s frustration, Muchen was gone by the time she woke up the next day. This always


    happens! He''d torture me the whole night, leaving me aching, but he''ll hop up and leave like it was


    nothing the next day.


    Ziyue wrapped a nket around her body as she sat in bed, but a thought intruded upon her mind.


    Getting up, she rummaged through her dressing cupboard till she found a bottlebeled ''Vitamins''.


    She stared at the bottle momentarily, then dropped a pill in her palm, which she swallowed quickly.


    …


    Muchen had already left for his office, leaving Ziyue alone with the bodyguard and the servant. Ziyue


    went to the empty dining room and had her breakfast.


    She entered the ss Flower Room and marveled at how the greenery beyond the windows caused


    the sunlight to bounce off the leaves, casting the room in a warm, verdant glow.


    I should''ve brought the food in here to enjoy the view.


    It felt like ages to Ziyue by the time it was afternoon, but it was the perfect time for Ziyue to have lunch


    with Muchen.


    When she arrived at Muchen''s office, he had juste out from a meeting.


    Muchen entered his office to see Ziyue sitting behind his desk with her eyes fixed on hisputer.


    Gesturing to his subordinates to leave, he quickly went around the desk, hugged Ziyue''s shoulder, and


    pecked her on her cheek.


    "Why are you here?"


    "I had nothing to do at home," Ziyue replied, dodging her true intentions.


    She would not let Muchen off the hook since he had not answered her question about Enyang, and


    Muchen knew it.


    Muchen ced his hand on the desk and towered over Ziyue. "What do you want for lunch?"


    Ziyue ignored him, her eyes fixed straight ahead.


    Muchen grinned. "I''ll tell you all about Enyang over lunch."


    Ziyue got up and walked around him toward the door, making Muchen suspect she knew what he


    would say.


    However, he merely noted her behavior as they went out for lunch.


    Muchen took her to a restaurant nearly an hour from LK Group.


    "Are you sure it''s a good idea to drive an hour to a restaurant just for lunch?"


    I''m sure the cook at home knows how to make delicious dishes - what''s so special about this


    restaurant? This feels unnecessary.


    Muchen silently held her hand and guided her into the restaurant.


    After they were seated, Muchen handed the menu to Ziyue. However, Ziyue merely shook her head,


    indicating that she wanted him to order.


    Muchen took the menu and ordered Ziyue''s favorite food for the two of them.


    While Ziyue nibbled on her lunch, she nced at Muchen to figure him out, but the man again tried to


    charm her by dabbing the corner of her lip.


    "Just eat - I''ll tell you what happened." Muchen''s eyes glinted with joy.

    Ziyue rolled her eyes at him. Why does he tempt me with information when he doesn''t intend to tell me


    anything?


    After lunch, they returned to the car. Muchen opened the passenger seat car door for Ziyue. After she


    was safely in the car, he slid into the driver''s seat and turned on the engine. "I''m going to take you


    somewhere."


    Ziyue drew her brows together. "Where to?"


    "Didn''t you want to know what Enyang was up to?" Muchen''s gaze was imprable.


    Muchen drove for a short while before stopping in front of a vi.


    "Get down," Muchen instructed while getting out of the car.


    Great trees surrounded the housing area, and a babbling brook tickled her senses.


    Muchen guided her to a bench. Before she could voice her questions, Muchen pressed a finger to her


    lips.


    A car sped past them toward a vi.


    Muchen pulled her up and guided her along a path in the woods toward the vi.


    The two stopped their stroll when they arrived in the woods before the vi.


    Ziyue turned to Muchen, but her question was answered when she saw the man getting out of the car -


    Lin Enyang.


    Ziyue''s jaw dropped, but Muchen merely smiled and gestured at the vi.


    Enyang walked up to the vi with his bodyguard trailing after him. The vi door opened, and a few


    men dressed in maintenance uniforms walked out and approached Enyang.


    Suddenly, Enyang turned to look at where Muchen and Ziyue were standing.


    Ziyue nearly dashed away out of instinct, but Muchen quickly pulled her into his arms and dodged


    behind a tree.


    Thankfully Enyang merely nced around before entering the vi.


    Ziyue watched Enyang enter the vi with bated breath. She sighed in relief when she was sure he


    could not see him. "How did you know he''d be here?"


    "I have men following him, so I''d know his whereabouts at any time," Muchen responded as if it was


    common to have someone followed.


    "Is he fixing up a house?" Her question was a veil - she was more interested to know about Enyang


    and Gricy.


    "Enxue, his sister, wants toe to Country J," Muchen replied.


    "I knew it!" She knew that when she overheard Enyang''s phone call yesterday.


    She nced at the vi, slightly in awe at how much Enyang loved Enxue. When he knew that Enxue


    wanted toe, he immediately got her a beautiful vi in a fantastic area and fixed the ce up for


    her.


    Muchen''s voice broke through her reverie. "That means that if Enyang gets on your nerves, you can


    meet Enxue here."


    Did Muchen bring me here so that I can threaten Enyang with his sister next time?


    However, Muchen did not borate but merely gestured for them to leave.
