Chapter 694
Chapter 694 Each More Loyal Than The Next
Bessalyn was upset but didn''t want to poke the bear any further.
She remembered an incident that had happened in that same parking garage. She and Muchen had
seen Ziyue and Yunan in the dark. She had asked out loud if there were a chance Ziyue would fall in
love with Yunan. Muchen had given her the death re. The next time she mentioned Ziyue, Muchen
would strangle.
Which was why she did not think it was a good idea to antagonize him anymore.
But her curiosity could not be denied. She may not have majored in psychology, but she wanted to
know more about Muchen''s unique situation.
Setting aside her own feelings for Muchen, his heritable mental disorder was reason enough for her to
be attracted to him.
His mental disorder had frequent reups, but every time it happened, Muchen managed to seize
control of himself and recover.
During their therapy sessions, he would somehow make her feel emotionally invested. It surprised and
scared her.
When Bessalyn came to, she rolled down all four windows to let the cold night air in. Hoping it would
calm Muchen.
She started the car back up, "Let''s go back."
She was met with silence. She had gotten used to it.
…
In the days following, Ziyue would arrive early at the office to find a drawing in her pile of papers. The
drawings would tell a story with every piece she collected.
Him smashing a reporter''s camera. Both of them arriving at the Civil Affairs Bureau. Her spilling a ss
of wine…
They were memories from a long time ago, but she remembered them as if it happened yesterday.
Ziyue couldn''t deny it was working on her.
Less talk and more action.
This was both Muchen''s weakness and strength.
He never exined himself but would do things to make her happy and hope she would forgive him.
Ziyue could never stay mad at him.
But he went too far this time. Ziyue wasn''t going to let this go that easily.
Muchen had told her he would take care of Chuan. Before two days had passed, Ziyue received news
about Chuan.
Instead of seeing Chuan himself, Ziyue received news of him from someone she would never expect.
Ziyuepiled theics she had received from Muchen and organized them with paperclips. She
kept them somewhere safe.
Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
The phone rang.
"Yes?" Ziyue answered.
"Ms. Su. Someone iming to be your friend wants to see you. She said…" The receptionist hesitated.
"What did she say?" Ziyue arched an eyebrow.
"She said she has information on Chuan for you…"
Ziyue tensed up. "Send her up." She ordered.
…
Holding her documents tightly, Nan Ke walked down the hallway to Ziyue''s office. She bumped into Gu
Hanyaning the opposite direction when she arrived at the door.
It was December. They were in the middle of winter. It snowed every day in Yunzhou, and the winds
were frigid and unstoppable. It got colder and colder by the day.
And yet Hanyan was wearing a dress with a knee-length wool coat over it. The coat didn''t look like it''ll
do much to keep her warm in this weather. Her legs were bare and long, finished with a pair of stilettos.
She looked extremely seductive.
Ke never liked Hanyan, and she liked her even less after everything that had happened.
Ke stopped and frowned at Hanyan.
Hanyan was about to enter Ziyue''s office when she saw Ke standing there. "Long time no see, Ke."
Hanyan grinned at her.
She was acting so sweet and friendly to Ke.
It made Ke want to throw up.
Ke frowned even harder. "Why are you here?" She asked warily.
Hanyan''s reputation had suffered, and there was a stain on her name in the industry. But she would
have higher chances of making a sessfuleback here in Country J than in Country Z.
And with how persistent the paparazzi were back home, they would swarm her if news of her return
were leaked. Everything she did would be front-page news.
Hanyan''s reputation may not be what it once was, but she was still extremely famous. Any news about
her would sell.
However, there was no sound of her return this time. There must be something else at y.
Ke had guessed Hanyan''s reason to return within a couple minutes of seeing her.
"Don''t look at me like that. I''m just here to catch up with Ziyue. We''re old friends, after all." Hanyan said
while walking towards her.
Ke couldn''t stop herself from taking a step back.
Hanyan''s expression tensed before she forced herself to rx.
She straightened her hair and raised her chin defiantly before opening the door to Ziyue''s office.
Ziyue had been deep in thought ever since receiving the call.
The door opening interrupted her thoughts. She turned to see Hanyan entering, with Ke following
behind.
Ke looked at Ziyue questioningly, and Ziyue tried to reassure her.
Hanyan took in Ziyue''s office design andyout,pletely ignoring Ziyue.
Ziyue immediately understood Hanyan''s presence must mean Chuan''s whereabouts must have
something to do with Gricy.
She thought back to the receptionist telling her that the person she was meeting had information on
Chuan.
Even though she hated the sight of Hanyan, Ziyue forced herself to be polite, "Have a seat."
Hanyan, seemingly realizing that other people were in the room, spun around in surprise and gasped,
"Oh my! I hope you don''t mind. It''s just been a while since I saw this ce."
"Say what you came to say. You don''t need to pretend in front of me. I''m not going to fall for it." Ziyue
leaned back into her chair calmly, with no sign of impatience.
cing the documents on the table, Ke nces at Ziyue warily.
Ziyue looked up at her. "You may go. Miss Gu and I need to have a conversation."
Ke nodded. She turned to walk out the door when Hanyan blocked her path.
"Where are you going? Don''t you want to hear what I have to say about your brother?" Hanyan spoke
slowly, almost slurring her words at some point. Ke found her irritating.
But she perked up at the mention of Chuan.
Forcing herself to look unbothered, Ke said, "You came to talk to Mrs. Qin, not me."
She quickly excused herself.
The concern Hanyan was pretending to have for Ke went straight out the window. "Muchen''s dogs are
quite loyal, aren''t they?" She sniggered
