Chapter 70 Chapter 70
Seeing Shen Muyun sleeping, Lu Huainan looked at Qi Beichen beside him, his heart ached, and he motioned him to come out and talk.
"Beichen, Brother Yun..."
Qi Beichen packed up his things and followed Lu Huainan out of the room. He pointed at Lu Huainan's clothes and said, "Look, there are blood stains all over your clothes."
Lu Huainan then looked down, suppressing the discomfort in his heart, and forced a pale smile towards Qi Beichen.
"It's nothing, just don't want this dress."
An unprecedented ruthlessness flashed in Lu Huainan's eyes, and even Qi Beichen felt that the temperature of the air seemed to have dropped a lot.
Qi Beichen immediately grabbed Lu Huainan's hand and said, "Huainan, have you not been taking your medicine on time recently?"
Lu Huainan shook his head. "I've been busy at the company lately, and I also went to Haicheng. I haven't had time to pick up the medicine. Has that had a big impact?"
Qi Beichen's expression immediately became serious. This matter should not be underestimated.
He held Lu Huainan's hand tightly and said with even more concern, "Huainan, you must take your medicine on time and control your emotions. Your emotions right now are like a beast, gradually eating away at your normal personality. If you don't stop, the consequences will be disastrous."
Lu Huainan naturally knew what Qi Beichen meant, but he didn't say much. He just watched him leave the villa.
The world became quiet. Lu Huainan sat alone in the study, looking at the maid statue in front of him. Inexplicable anxiety suddenly surged in his heart, and even more so, the way Shen Muyun was beaten to pieces.
No, why didn't he protect Shen Muyun? No, things shouldn't be like this, they should be perfect. Lu Huainan's emotions are becoming more and more unstable.
He was like a wild beast about to lose his mind, constantly telling himself to control his emotions until a certain critical point, when he suddenly exploded.
Lu Huainan took out the medicine from the drawer with trembling hands. Fortunately, there was one last pill. He should be fine after taking it. After taking it and having a good sleep, everything should return to normal.
Lu Huainan swallowed the pill directly into his stomach without even drinking water. It felt dry and stuck deep in his throat, which was uncomfortable, but he couldn't spit it out, as he thought he would feel better in a while.
He got up immediately, ran to the next room, locked the door, and lay on the bed. No matter what, he couldn't let Shen Muyun see him like this. No matter what, this was not him.
Lu Huainan even had hallucinations. He saw Shen Muyun in front of him, watching him change little by little, and even saw Shen Muyun leave resolutely. However, this hallucination made him fall into deep pain, and under the influence of drugs, he was forced to fall asleep.
When Shen Muyun woke up, she found only the mark of Lu Huainan's presence by the bed. She reached out and touched it, but it was even colder. Did he go out for something? Qi Beichen was not there either.
Shen Muyun wanted to get up, but he pulled the wound. The pain instantly eroded his brain. It hurt, and it hurt again. It was that kind of indescribable discomfort. Why was it like this? He recalled everything that happened when he came here. Could it be that it was Shen Liuyun who set up the game from the beginning, looking for direction in his gentle personality?
Shen Muyun felt a headache from thinking about it. This was an inexplicable feeling and inexplicable thoughts. It shouldn't be like this.
"Mr. Shen."
There was a noise outside the door.
"Come in."
The butler was holding a plate in his hand and bowing to him.
"This is what Mr. Lu prepared for you. Let us keep an eye on it and deliver it to you as soon as you wake up. It seems the timing was just right."
Shen Muyun signaled the housekeeper to keep the plate. After opening it, he found that it was pig's trotter porridge. He smiled. It seemed that Lu Huainan couldn't stand this pig's trotter.
"What about Huainan? Where did he go?"
"He went to see Doctor Qi and should be back soon. You don't have to worry."
Shen Muyun waved his hands, feeling that something was wrong. He looked at the porridge beside him. It seemed that half of his abdominal muscles had disappeared under Lu Huainan's feeding.
Shen Muyun took the spoon and scooped a spoonful. It tasted good. It was Lu Huainan's work. He couldn't help but imagine how Lu Huainan would cook. He never thought that the cold and difficult to conquer Lu Huainan mentioned by the system would become like this now.
"Ding Dong, dear host!"
Shen Muyun raised his eyes and glanced at the system.
"What's wrong? Is there anything special you want to say? Or are you ready to see if your lovely host has been beaten to death?"
"Master Host, you can't say that. This is a blessing in disguise. Hiss, is this porridge delicious?"
Shen Muyun immediately held the bowl in his arms and looked at the system drooling, "Tsk, you are not a carnivore, are you?"
The system paused, then instantly transformed into a humanoid form, pointing to its own pupils. "Well, host, take a look. What kind of animal do you think I am?"
Shen Muyun thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out what this thing was. He simply didn't embarrass himself, "I don't know, and I don't want to know. System, has the main line mutated?"
“Well, this, Master Host, as I said before, the main plot is not that simple. According to the current script, you are about to enter the next stage, which is the battle for Shen Liuyun’s property. Shen Liuyun will become a complete villain.”
Shen Muyun shook his head helplessly. He had always wondered if the system or his own feelings were wrong. Obviously, Shen Liuyun had always been gentle and polite, but it seemed that he was wrong.
"System, is this true? You only know a person's face, but not his heart."
"Host, I was saying that you're not crazy anymore, and no one dislikes you anymore. As I said, people are diverse. I think you're fine the way you are now."
Shen Muyun looked at the porridge in front of him thoughtfully. Logically, Lu Huainan should be guarding his bedside as soon as he woke up, but he was not there now, and no one knew where he had gone.
"System, check where Lu Huainan went?"
The system shook its head in embarrassment. "Host, didn't I tell you that I'm, uh, a semi-serious system? Therefore, I don't have a monitoring system. If you're really worried, you can look around inside the villa. The area here isn't very large, so you should be able to explore it in a day."
Chen Muyun couldn't help but knock on the system's forehead. "Really? Sometimes, I really want to open your head and see what's inside. It seems like paste or something."
The system looked aggrieved and disappeared into thin air in an instant.
Shen Muyun was helpless. This system seemed to be getting smarter and smarter, and even understood emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.
Shen Muyun finished drinking the porridge and moved slightly. The pain in his back eroded his nerves. It was indeed uncomfortable, very painful, and tearing pain, but he was inexplicably uneasy.
He lifted the quilt, endured the pain in his body, and got out of bed. It was quite painful and uncomfortable.
Shen Muyun went out directly. There was a long corridor at the door, and there were not many people. She had heard Lu Huainan say that this was his villa on the outskirts of the city. He just built it for the sake of scenery, and there were not even many waiters.
Chen Muyun wandered aimlessly and didn't even meet the housekeeper. Could this be what it means to be free and undisciplined?
Shen Muyun walked forward a few steps and saw a room with an open door at the corner.
"Isn't there anyone inside? Could it be that Lu Huainan is inside?"
Just as he was about to walk forward, a voice came from behind him, "Mr. Shen, so you are here. You were not here when I delivered something just now. How about I take you back?"
Shen Muyun looked back at the room with the open door. His sixth sense suggested that there must be something over there, and it must be very important.
When I followed the housekeeper back to the room, I saw a fruit plate on the table.
"This is what Mr. Lu ordered. He said that no matter how good the pig's trotter porridge is, it will always be greasy and has too much fat. You should try it. These are produced in the Lu's winery. They should taste good too."
Shen Muyun looked at the things on the plate: grapes, plums, and peeled apples. They looked really good.
He took a small fork, picked up a grape and put it into his mouth. It tasted really good, sour and sweet. No wonder Lu's wine was also good. It turned out that the secret was here.
"Well, Mr. Shen, your current physical condition is not very good. Doctor Qi just told you to get more rest. Mr. Lu also told me to get more rest. Walking too much will affect your health."
Lu Huainan, it was still Lu Huainan, it was him again, but he was not in the company. Looking at his phone again, there was no message from him. A strange thought arose in Shen Muyun's mind.
"I see, housekeeper. Actually, I only hurt my back. My arms and legs are fine. Don't worry. I can't stay in bed all the time. I always feel uncomfortable."
The housekeeper understood what Shen Muyun meant, and it was not easy to say anything more. He could only nod and leave the room.
Shen Muyun even had a feeling that he was being inexplicably monitored. Something was wrong. This must be wrong. Why didn't Lu Huainan show up on his own?
He called Lu Huainan directly, and a mechanical female voice came from the phone. Shen Muyun couldn't just sit there and wait for death. What if the Shen family was looking for trouble with him? Different outrageous thoughts were stirring back and forth in Shen Muyun's mind. If something was wrong, it was wrong. What else could he say?
Shen Muyun stood up and looked towards the door. There was indeed no one around. He was more careful this time. It seemed that the housekeeper was indeed not there. He really wanted to go in the door in front. It was open just now. He had specially memorized the route and was almost there.
Shen Muyun stood on tiptoe, even feeling a little ridiculous. There was clearly no secret here, so why was he so cautious, like a burglar?
Walking a little further, he came to this corner. He hid at the edge of the doorpost and looked around. There was indeed no one there. Okay, he could get closer to the truth, but a feeling came to his mind. Something was not right. Why did he feel like he was walking into a trap? But he didn't care about so much. Maybe he could get closer to the truth soon. Now was the best time to act.
