Chapter 53 Return to the city early
Shao Leyan waved his hand and said, "It's all in the past. There's no point in regretting it. Fortunately, he didn't succeed."
Fu Xingyan nodded in agreement. "I'm glad you're okay. However, Mu Jinsheng, even though this incident didn't cause any bad consequences, we can't just let it go. But I also know you're afraid that the Mu family's status will be shaken. No matter what conditions we put forward, you will do your best to meet them."
Mu Jinsheng is determined
Nodded.
Fu Xingyan reached out and gently stroked Shao Leyan's head, with half heartache and half indulgence in his eyes.
"Is there anything you want? Whether it's a big garden or a beautiful dress, if Mu Jiaojiao has it, you can have it too."
Garden and skirt?
Shao Leyan felt a little disgusted, but didn't dare show it.
In the apocalypse, supplies and supernatural crystal cores are the most important things. What’s the use of a big garden and a beautiful skirt? Can they be eaten?
If she were to choose, she would only hope that Fu Xingchen's favorability towards her would quickly reach the maximum value, so that she wouldn't have to be so nervous and afraid of being abandoned.
"What garden? I don't care about the skirt. Xingchen has worked so hard for the dungeon. It would be great if I could help him solve his problems."
Mu Jinsheng pondered for a few seconds, "I understand."
"You'd better really understand." Fu Xingyan glanced at him contemptuously, then suddenly realized something unexpected and said in a low voice, "Let's not talk about this anymore. My brother and the others are here."
As soon as Fu Xingchen entered the room, he saw Shao Leyan lying on the white hospital bed and resting.
"Brother," Fu Xingyan turned around when he heard footsteps, pretending to have just heard something, "Why are you here..."
Fu Xingchen didn't even spare him a glance, and in a panic, he even pushed him away from the bed.
"Yanyan, what's wrong with you?"
Fu Xingchen supported the right side of Shao Leyan's neck with one hand, and held her face gently with his left hand as if it were a treasure. His tall body completely covered her.
There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and he didn't even have time to wipe it off. His face was full of worry and anxiety, and his chest was slightly heaving. It was obvious that he was running here in a hurry.
Shao Leyan stroked the back of Fu Xingchen's hand, and rubbed her delicate and soft little face gently against his palm, looking as obedient as a little kitten.
"I went to visit Jiaojiao's garden and suddenly fainted inside. Luckily, when Master Mu came to look for Jiaojiao, he found that I was not there. After he found me, he sent me here for treatment. I am fine now."
Not only was Fu Xingchen not comforted, he was heartbroken and his anger burned even more fiercely.
"Where's Xingyan? Where's Mu Jiaojiao? Why did they leave you alone?"
"Jiaojiao went to change clothes. Xingyan didn't feel well after drinking the fruit tea, so the housekeeper took him to rest."
"Is that even a reason?" Fu Xingchen's fury continued unabated, and he pointed the finger at Fu Xingyan. "Didn't you volunteer to be with Yanyan? And what happened? Is this how you take care of her?"
Fu Xingyan did not argue but simply bowed his head and admitted his mistake.
Mu Sheng, who was standing aside and listening silently, had a face that looked like a palette, sometimes blue and sometimes red.
He was prepared for Fu Xingchen to be furious with him and to settle the score with him, but the couple talked back and forth and no one brought the topic to him.
He was having a headache because he couldn't get Fu Xingchen to drink, when he saw the butler running in with a troubled look on his face, and he immediately realized that the truth was revealed.
Along the way, he stared at Fu Xingchen's running back, and he had the idea of taking the initiative countless times, so that Fu Xingchen would find himself on the car returning to the underground city when he woke up.
As a result, he was trembling with fear all the way, and in the end nothing happened.
But how could his carefully planned thing fail?
Why did Jin Sheng get involved in this matter?
"City Lord Mu?"
"City Lord Mu!"
Mu Sheng was startled. When he raised his eyes, several pairs of eyes were looking at him. He didn't know who to look at to avoid being exposed.
Fu Xingchen narrowed his eyes slightly and said aggressively, "What are you thinking about? You didn't even respond when I called you."
Mu Sheng smiled and replied, "Oh, nothing, are you done?"
Fu Xingchen said seriously, "Le Yan and I will return to the dungeon now. Please arrange for a space-based psychic to assist us."
Not to mention others, even Shao Leyan was quite frightened.
Mu Sheng: "Now? Are there only two of you?"
"certainly."
Mu Sheng frowned in embarrassment, "Isn't it too early? It would be better to go back with the main group tomorrow."
"My wife needs to rest. With the help of a space-based esper, the two of us can be back in the city in less than an hour, just enough time to get a good night's sleep."
Seeing that Fu Xingchen was determined to stick to his guns, Mu Sheng could not persuade this stubborn guy even if he tried his best, so he had to compromise.
"Well, get ready. I'll have my subordinates take you back to the city."
After Mu Sheng and Mu Jinsheng left one after another, the atmosphere in the room became even more solemn.
"Is today's accident related to Mu Sheng?"
Shao Leyan thought the matter was over, but Fu Xingchen's sudden question caught her off guard.
"Brother," Fu Xingyan took the initiative to speak, "There is no evidence to prove that it is related to the Mu family."
"Oh!" Fu Xingchen sneered disdainfully, "Is there really nothing, or do you not want me to investigate?"
Fu Xingyan was speechless for a moment, and while Fu Xingchen wasn't looking at him, he winked at Shao Leyan.
Shao Leyan immediately understood, and leaned weakly on Fu Xingchen's shoulder, with his pale little face pressed tightly against him, his tone pitiful and aggrieved.
"It's all my fault. I won't run around again next time."
Fu Xingchen followed Shao Leyan's posture and hugged her, setting a cage for her without allowing her to refuse.
"There won't be a next time. I won't let you out of my sight again. As for today's accident, I can choose not to delve into it, but if you want to keep it a secret, you'd better keep it a secret and don't let anyone know."
Fu Xingchen always keeps his word. When he said that Shao Leyan would no longer be able to move freely in the future, he was asserting that her future could only be as his, Fu Xingchen's, follower and companion, and the two would be inseparable.
Shao Leyan suppressed the panic in her heart. After returning, she must find an opportunity to have a good talk with Le An.
Mu Sheng made arrangements very quickly. In less than half an hour, the strongest space-based psychic in the central city brought Fu Xingchen and Shao Leyan back to the underground city.
After watching the two disappear into the conversion room of the space conversion station, Mu Sheng slumped weakly in the chair, sweat dripping to the ground like a waterfall.
Butler Zhang's condition was not much better, but he didn't dare to sit down, so he could only stand by with his shaky body.
"City Lord, we have finally sent this giant Buddha away."
Bang!
Mu Sheng slapped Butler Zhang and sent him flying.
"You piece of shit! How dare you say that!"
Butler Zhang rolled over on the ground twice. He didn't dare to talk back when he heard Mu Sheng's angry scolding. He could only cover half of his swollen face and kneel on the ground to listen to the scolding.
"Didn't I tell you to give her the full dose? Even a healing psychic wouldn't be able to alleviate the effects of the drug in a short time, yet Shao Leyan is completely fine. How did you do that?"
"City Lord, this is none of my business. It was the young master who discovered her in time and brought her to the hospital. He also happened to meet Bingshan. Otherwise, Shao Leyan would definitely be in your hands."
