He found a magnifying glass that he had secretly bought from the mall and discovered that there was a small black dot on each button. At first, he thought it was just paint chipping and turning black, but when he touched it lightly, he immediately felt a jolt of electricity.

Chu Yunmu frowned slightly. Such an exquisite thing could not be made by an ordinary factory. Where did Zhou Sijue get it from?

"Madam, Mr. Lin has arrived."

The butler knocked on the tightly closed door. Chu Yunmu looked terrible this morning. He had slept all morning. Could it be that the master had done something heinous last night?

"Okay, I'll go down in a bit."

Chu Yunmu got up, rummaged through his clothes, went to the bathroom, looked at the bathtub, and had a bold idea. He filled the bathtub with water, raised his hand, and threw the anklet into it.

After changing his clothes, Chu Yunmu walked to the door and asked the housekeeper to find someone to clean the bathtub in the afternoon. The housekeeper nodded in agreement.

"Yunmu?"

Lin Chen couldn't hide his surprise. He really didn't expect that Zhou Sijue's fiancée would be Chu Yunmu.

"You...know me?"

Chu Yunmu stared blankly at Lin Chen, her eyes clear, like an innocent child.

“We’ve met before.” Lin Chen suppressed his confusion and forced a smile. “You probably don’t remember, you’re a busy man.”

"Oh, are you Sijue's friend?"

Chu Yunmu nodded and gave the butler a wink. The butler understood and left with the servants.

"Yes, he said you haven't been in a good mood lately, and that you're missing old friends?"

Lin Chen's tone was probing; he really wanted to know whether Zhou Sijue had actually used the drug on Chu Yunmu.

“If he says so, then so be it.” Chu Yunmu pointed to the chair next to the dining table. “Sit down.”

"I've heard Si Jue mention you, big star."

"It's just an empty title." Lin Chen waved his hand. "Si Jue said you two are engaged, and I was curious, so I came here to pay you a visit."

"Did he really say that?" Chu Yunmu frowned slightly, but quickly recovered. "Thanks to Si Jue, I had the opportunity to meet a superstar who is extremely busy. There's no question of being presumptuous."

“I saw you a few times when I went to visit Lin Gu, back when you were still in the youth training camp.”

"Oh, so you're the mysterious person wearing a mask." Chu Yunmu pretended to suddenly realize. "I didn't recognize you even when you weren't wearing a mask."

"There's no way around it. If I didn't wear a mask, I would definitely be stuck at the door and wouldn't even be able to leave." Lin Chen shook his head with a smile, his face full of helplessness. "I never thought that one day, a mask would become my second face."

“It’s true, there were a lot of rumors about you in the youth training camp back then, because every time you appeared, Lin Gu would have a lot of food. Over time, the youth training camp was spreading the word that Lin Gu had special abilities and could summon mysterious people to deliver food.” Chu Yunmu smiled, “And many people went to Lin Gu, saying they wanted to learn his special abilities.”

Of course, he made all of this up; Lin Chen was nowhere to be found in his chaotic memories.

"Many people also believe that Lin Gu is an envoy of a mysterious organization, and that if you make a wish to him, the mysterious person will bring you food."

"Don't go too far," Lin Chen sighed, rubbing his forehead. What to do when kids have such vivid imaginations?

He's not Aladdin's lamp or a wishing well turtle; he can't just give you whatever you want.

"It's a bit childish for adults, but just right for us." Chu Yunmu laughed. "I listened to your new song a few days ago. It's very nice, and the lyrics are very meaningful."

“I think it sounds good too.” Lin Chen smiled. “I wrote the lyrics and composed the music all by myself. It was a bit rushed, so the details weren’t handled very well.”

"Impressive." Chu Yunmu gave a thumbs up. "Someone as ordinary as me wouldn't be able to hear any flaws."

"Everyone has their own expertise. If you ask me to read military books and strategies, or lead troops into battle, I wouldn't know how," Lin Chen shrugged. "But making music is much simpler and easier than leading troops into battle."

"I think making music is more difficult. You have to explore every word and every note over and over again, and there's nothing to learn from. It really tests your patience."

"Haha, now that you mention it, my sense of accomplishment is skyrocketing!" Lin Chen raised an eyebrow and said to himself, "No, no, I have to be proud for a while."

"You can be proud for a little while longer," Chu Yunmu smiled. "Speaking of which, how's Lin Gu doing lately? I heard Yu Zhen got sick after moving there, is he feeling better?"

When Zhou Sijue had nothing to do, he would tell him about these strange people. He was puzzled, but he still kept them in mind. Unexpectedly, they actually came in handy.

"Just thinking about him annoys me." Lin Chen really wanted to beat his good-for-nothing brother to death. Instead of caring about his wife and children, he brought an outsider into the house. What kind of behavior was that?

"What's wrong? Tell me about it."

"The two of them had another fight, and it was quite a big one. Xiao Zhen went to the Twenty-Eight Planets with Si Yu to work on a project, and that brat Lin Gu hasn't even tried to catch up with her in over a month."

Don't they have children?

“That brat is just like Lin Gu. He’s always clinging to Cen Jin. A few days ago, when my parents brought him over for a few days during the holiday, he kept making a fuss about wanting to go back to Cen Jin. It was so noisy.”

"Maybe it will be better when he/she gets older."

"Forget it, let's not talk about that brat anymore."

I thought Lin Gu was just young and playful, and that he would be fine after getting married. Who knew that even with his child so grown up, he would still be so incorrigible? If Yu Zhen really leaves, let's see where he can cry.

After dinner, the two chatted about many other topics, laughing constantly, making the large villa much more lively, until Lin Chen received a phone call and left, after which the villa became quiet again.
