Chapter 19 Mu Shao panicked
Mu family.
Mu Yuting rarely had any social engagements. He had just finished dinner and was about to go upstairs.
“A-choo… A-choo…”
Aunt Qiao, who was cleaning the table, heard this and reminded him with concern: "Master, it's raining, you should wear more clothes and don't catch a cold."
"Hmm..." he responded absentmindedly.
Aunt Qiao has worked in the Mu family for almost thirty years, and Mu Yuting grew up under her care.
Aunt Qiao used to serve at Old Madam Mu's place. Later, when Mu Yuting moved to this villa, the old lady was worried about this workaholic bachelor grandson, so she asked Aunt Qiao to come with her.
Back in the study, Mu Yuting didn't turn on the light. He leaned casually against the window, listening to the sound of rain outside, looking as handsome as a sculpture.
But, he felt inexplicably flustered... Mu Yuting frowned slightly, and the smoke at his fingertips flickered.
The phone vibrated, and a familiar number appeared before my eyes...
In the morning, he gave his spare phone to Lin Xiaonuan, and it was this number...
Lin...Xiao...Nuan...
There was a hint of tenderness in Mu Yuting's cold eyes. This silly woman actually took the initiative to call him.
Let her stay in the hospital for a few more days, but she insisted on being discharged early this morning. Could it be that her headache is coming back?
He wanted to tease her by deliberately not answering the call for a while, but when he thought of her head, Mu Yuting immediately slid down the answer button.
"Hello……"
…………
"say……"
…………
"Lin Xiaonuan..."
…………
There was still no response from the other party... Only the sound of rain could be heard from the phone...
Something is wrong.
His narrow eyes darkened a little as he decisively hung up the phone. He called again, but the call went through, but no one answered...
Mu Yuting realized the seriousness of the situation, frowned, and made two phone calls while going downstairs, his voice low and steady.
"Mu Yuan, prepare the car..."
"Yes, Master!"
"Zeyan, find out Lin Xiaonuan's current location..."
"Lin Xiaonuan, that girl from yesterday? Master Mu, you're still chasing girls so late at night? I've already gotten off work..." On the other end of the phone, Ye Chen was confused and teased him with a playful smile.
"Immediately..." Mu Yuting's voice was not loud, but his tone revealed an irresistible aura.
Ye Chen was too familiar with this good brother's character. Mu Yuting was serious, so he stopped joking and answered seriously:
"I'll reply to your letter within five minutes."
"kindness."
…
Mu Yuting's expression was stern, his eyes sharp. He walked towards the door without saying a word. Aunt Qiao saw him with a puzzled and worried look on her face. "Why are you going out so late? And it's raining so hard?"
The words were on the tip of his tongue but he swallowed them back. The young master has always been steady and prudent, so he must have his reasons for leaving at this time.
She hurriedly handed over the suit jacket: "Master, wear the jacket, don't catch a cold."
"kindness."
The Bentley was already waiting in the courtyard of the villa. Seeing Mu Yuting coming, Mu Yuan hurried to greet him with an umbrella.
Aunt Qiao chased him into the yard, carrying a pair of shiny black leather shoes: "Master, you forgot to change your shoes."
But the car had disappeared in front of the villa.
Young Master Yu Ting has always been calm and composed. He has been exposed to the business world since he was in his teens. After taking over the Mu Group, he has experienced so many ups and downs, but he has remained calm and composed.
But today he was so flustered, what happened? He went out in slippers?
That's not his style...
Aunt Qiao looked confused and went back talking to herself.
…
In the car.
Not long after we drove out, Ye Chen called: "The girl's location was sent to your phone."
"Yeah." Mu Yuting said simply and clearly, as if saying one more word would tire his tongue.
Ye Chen did not give up. There was indeed something wrong with Mu Yuting today. He wanted to continue asking what was going on.
But he knew Mu Yuting's ugly face too well, so he decided not to embarrass himself.
He imagined the plot in his mind: on a stormy night, a domineering, cold, and arrogant young master from a wealthy family would fight with others and become jealous over a country girl named Lin Xiaonuan...
Is it so exciting?
Ye Chen was convinced of his guess and worried that Mu Yuting would suffer a loss, so he added, "That place is quite remote, safety is the first priority. Otherwise, I will take a few brothers there..."
"No need." Mu Yuting said coldly.
"Well, take care..." Mu Yuting hung up the phone before Ye Chen finished speaking.
This guy is so ungrateful.
But on second thought, his instructions were completely unnecessary. During the two years he served as a special forces soldier, Mu Yuting's physical fitness and various skills were top-notch.
Especially his leg strength, as long as he wants, just one strike is enough to take someone's life.
If the old lady of the Mu family had not used both soft and hard tactics to force him to retire from the army and return to take over the Mu Group, he would have been kept in the army by his superiors long ago.
With Mu Yuting's skills, ordinary people can't get close to him.
Ye Chen picked up a glass of red wine and shook it gently, then he couldn't help but sigh:
Whose girl is this that makes the usually cold Huo Shaomu lose his composure like this?
…
The rain doesn't understand people's thoughts at all and just plays recklessly.
Following the navigation, half an hour later, the Bentley drove onto the road where Lin Xiaonuan had fainted...
Inside the car, Mu Yuting was frighteningly silent, his fists clenched, his brows furrowed, his sharp eyes fixed on the area where the high beams reached, not daring to relax for a moment.
A few minutes later, he saw Lin Xiaonuan lying in the rain.
"Mu Yuan, stop the car, turn around and wait for me."
He is always calm, even when his heart is in turmoil, his expression remains calm.
"Yes, Master."
After getting off the car, Mu Yuting realized that he was in too much of a hurry to go out and came out in slippers.
In the way.
He simply threw his slippers aside, ran to Lin Xiaonuan barefoot, and patted her arm.
"Lin Xiaonuan... wake up..."
Lin Xiaonuan slowly opened her eyes and saw a figure in the blur. She weakly called out "Mom" and then fainted again.
Mu Yuting slowly picked up the disheveled Lin Xiaonuan, whose hair was disheveled, body was soaked, and covered with scars, like a wounded stray cat.
Mu Yuting's eyes were deep. "How did you get yourself into this state? Aren't you quite powerful?"
Mu Yuan had already turned the car around, and Mu Yuting quickly got into the Bentley holding Lin Xiaonuan.
"He'en Hospital."
"Yes, Master."
Mu Yuting looked at the girl in his arms, feeling both angry and pity. She didn't take care of herself. She was just discharged from the hospital this morning, and now she had tortured herself into this state.
Oh, this woman really deserves a beating...
If he hadn't accidentally had physical contact with her that night... he wouldn't have bothered to care about her.
Although he was complaining in his heart, his body was honest. He took a towel and carefully wiped the water off her head. When he wiped the scar on her forehead, he was extra careful for fear of hurting her.
"Mother……"
"cold……"
Xiao Nuan was in a trance and had a dream. Her mother came to take her home. She felt so comfortable lying in her mother's arms.
She couldn't help but lean into Mu Yuting's arms, mumbling incoherently.
"Mother……"
"I want to go home..." Hot tears rolled down from Xiao Nuan's eyes.
She was talking nonsense. Mu Yuting touched her forehead with the back of his hand. It was so hot, it felt like she was burning.
Mu Yuting's heart ached uncontrollably. How much injustice had this woman suffered?
"Mu Yuan, turn around."
go home.
