Chapter 85
It was almost five o'clock when Chu Muchao checked into the hotel.
I hadn't been asleep for long when I was woken up by the doorbell and system notifications.
Wake up, he's coming after us.
Upon hearing the system's voice, Chu Muchao was jolted awake from his sleep and sat bolt upright.
The phrase "He's coming after me" is like a nightmare.
Chu Muchao had just put on a bathrobe when the door was opened from the outside.
Immediately following was Chu Wen's figure approaching rapidly.
Chu Muchao looked towards the door.
Because of the location of the corridor and restrooms, she couldn't see outside, but that didn't prevent her from speaking.
"Giving room key cards to anyone other than the homeowner without their permission? I think you want to be punished."
The people outside quickly apologized.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Chu! But your brother said he’s very anxious, and…”
Chu Wen snapped, "Alright, close the door and leave."
Yes, yes, yes.
The person outside hurriedly closed the door, and then a flurry of footsteps gradually faded away.
Chu Muchao, wearing a bathrobe, sat on the large bed in the room.
His eyes were not fully awake, his brows furrowed as he looked at Chu Wen.
Why are you running? You were perfectly fine last night!
"Chu Muchao, what are you thinking? I'm finding it harder and harder to understand you."
"I care about you, I don't want you to be in danger, is there a problem?"
"Are your parents spoiling you too much? Don't you know how treacherous people can be outside?"
Faced with Chu Wen's series of questions, Chu Muchao frowned even more deeply.
After Chu Wen finished asking his questions, Chu Muchao looked into his eyes and asked a question.
"Then why don't you trust me? I can find evidence against Zhai Jinwu, don't you believe I can handle Su Qian too?"
"Did you leave this home because you like me and love me, or did you want to satisfy your desire for control in another way?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Wen's eyes widened in disbelief.
Such sharp and blunt words actually came from his Chaochao's mouth.
"Do you think I did all this just to satisfy myself?" Chu Wen's eyes darkened. "Do you need me to show you the fate of those who get involved? You can continue to watch how many people you can drag down by pulling the thread that is Su Qian."
They came close step by step, with overwhelming force, but now they are retreating step by step, feeling dejected and heartbroken.
"Chao Chao, if I don't love you enough, I don't need to care about what you think, and I don't need to restrain my emotions and behavior."
Chu Wen left.
It's only a little past seven in the morning.
She had only slept for two hours.
Chu Muchao lay back down on the bed, but he couldn't fall asleep.
She thought that given Chu Wen's controlling and possessive nature, a big argument would break out.
When he hurriedly found the hotel, he probably had the same plan.
The system's voice sounded slowly and gently.
Your words seem to negate his feelings for you.
ah……
No wonder he suddenly deflated, staring at her for a long time without saying a word, his eyes filled with shock.
"I didn't mean to deny his feelings, it's just that he's always been very controlling, and I wasn't wrong..."
【^-^】
As Chu Muchao continued speaking, his voice grew softer and softer, and he became increasingly less confident.
She still wanted to defend herself.
However, Chu Wen's desire to control her and his love for her coexisted without any problems.
She, however, saw Chu Wen's controlling nature and love for her as opposing forces.
【Miss Mu Mu, stop fighting amongst yourselves. This is just as you wish; I won't appear before you before the New Year, so you can focus on your work.】
Chu Muchao: Wow, you're really good at comforting people.
【^-^】
"Are you still feeling well? How about we go grab a bite to eat together?" Chu Mu asked as he got up to pack his things.
She only brought one bag with her when she moved in. Everything in the bag was neatly arranged, except for the black ballpoint pen, which she clutched in her hand.
It was useless when facing Chu Wen, and now it's unclear where she casually put it.
A fair hand reached into her line of sight.
Her palm was outstretched, and there lay her black ballpoint pen.
Chu Muchao's gaze moved from the black pen in his palm to his gentle, smiling eyes.
And that beautiful, smooth, purplish-gray hair.
“I’m here,” he said with a smile, “but I don’t know when I’ll leave.”
"Ah, it's okay, just like last time, as long as you don't suddenly disappear into the crowd. Suddenly disappearing is too scary, I'm afraid you'll be on the news." Chu Muchao waved his hand and took the pen from his palm. "Then, shall we go?"
"good."
Her hair was still flowing and shiny when she walked.
It looks like it was born naturally, not like a wig.
"Oh."
He let out a soft chuckle.
"I can generate my appearance without needing to wear a wig."
Tsk.
I hate mind reading.
Chu Muchao glared at him and asked, "Do you have a name?"
"No."
Chu Muchao frowned: "Then how should I address you? Should the system call you as usual? That would seem very impolite."
He laughed and said, "Perhaps you can call me System Brother. There are so many brothers, one more won't make a difference."
Chu Mu rolled her eyes at him.
"No way."
Chu Muchao, carrying a bag, walked ahead and opened the room door first.
He had just taken a step out when he caught a glimpse of the bodyguard beside him out of the corner of his eye, and he was startled.
"Young Miss, are we going back now..." The bodyguard paused before he could finish speaking, seeing the gray-purple-haired man behind Chu Muchao. "Back...uh...back...home?"
Chu Muchao blinked: "My brother's gone, right?"
bodyguard:"……"
Neither of the two bodyguards on the left outside the door spoke; they simply looked up silently toward Chu Muchao's right.
Chu Muchao turned his head and saw that familiar figure in the corridor. He turned and left without looking back.
"..."
Chu Muchao smiled.
"Ah, it's nothing, I'm leaving now."
It's over.
Will Chu Wen think she's cheating on him...?
[^-^ A few months ago, Miss Mu Mu said that you two were like brother and sister who weren't officially in a relationship. How could people who aren't officially in a romantic relationship misunderstand and think you're "cheating"?]
Chu Muchao: ...
She has a gentle face and a gentle voice, but why does her voice sound a little harsh?
Chu Muchao stretched.
"Hey, my friend and I have been busy all night, we need to go to a restaurant to get something to eat before going home."
The bodyguard hurriedly replied, "Yes, Miss, we'll follow behind to protect you and your friend."
Chu Muchao looked away and tugged at the man behind him.
Let's go.
There were eight bodyguards following behind him.
The group entered the restaurant with quite a entourage, attracting the attention of those around them.
Chu Muchao led them to a secluded spot to sit down.
"Where is the evidence we collected last night?"
The man with purplish-gray hair sitting opposite Chu Muchao slowly raised his eyes and gazed tenderly at the person in front of him.
With just one glance, he understood Chu Muchao's intention.
Chu Muchao specifically mentioned the word "friend" because she wanted him, this "person who can disappear," to act as her "hacker friend" who could quickly find a lot of information and evidence.
He laughed and said, "I'll organize it and send it to your email."
"Okay, thank you then."
Chu Muchao cupped her face in her hands, looking at him with smiling, narrowed eyes.
His gaze softened.
If they hadn't told Chu Wen, wouldn't all your acting have been for nothing?
Chu Muchao: What does it matter? Anyway, you're in the restaurant now, and you've been seen on many surveillance cameras. So what does it matter if others can find out your whereabouts, or where and when you disappear?
【^-^ Yes, I'm just acting suspiciously, not a wanted criminal. Nobody will investigate. Except your control freak boyfriend.】
oops.
Speaking of this, Chu Muchao guiltily covered her mouth with both hands, blinked her eyes, and looked innocently at the man in front of her.
Chu Muchao: I didn't know he was still outside. I should have told you not to come out in the first place.
【^-^ It's like they're having an affair.】
Chu Muchao: Tsk.
Chu Muchao: I wonder what he'll be thinking.
[You might be thinking: Where is this person hiding? How come I didn't notice there was another person in the room before? Hmm, that's strange.]
Chu Muchao: Silence and sarcasm.
[He might even check all the surveillance footage he can find, only to discover that I appeared out of nowhere.]
Chu Muchao trembled violently, his eyes filled with terror.
Has he already started doing that?
The man in front of me smiled like a fox, yet his voice remained gentle.
The noble and elegant little fox prince.
Hmm, so this is the tacit understanding cultivated through spending a lot of time together.
Even though she hadn't seen this person for more than 24 hours, she could still discern the meaning he was trying to convey from his almost crescent-shaped eyes.
Chu Wen has indeed started checking the surveillance footage.
You don't seem worried.
Chu Muchao: What he can't find out is that, apart from now, you haven't appeared under any surveillance.
【^-^】
Chu Muchao: What are you laughing at?
Even if there are any, I can erase the traces and the memories of those who have seen me.
Chu Muchao raised his eyes upon hearing this, looking into those smiling eyes.
Chu Muchao: So, the reason my impression of you is blurry is because you have erased my memory.
【^-^ But obviously, it failed.】
Chu Muchao: After you complete your mission, will you also erase my memories and pretend that you never came to this world?
【^-^ if you need it.】
Chu Muchao thought for a moment, then shook his head seriously.
Chu Muchao: Don't erase those memories, I want to remember you.
It's my honor to receive your ^-^.
-
Inside the black limousine.
In the narrow and confined space, Chu Wen was overcome with an uncontrollable and volatile temper.
Why can't I find it?
"The person was in the hotel, the surveillance footage wasn't tampered with, the video wasn't edited, and they just walked in right under your noses?!"
"Investigate! Keep investigating!"
Qin Ye was also in the car.
Sitting opposite Chu Wen, his gaze was cold and deep as he rested his chin on his hand, deep in thought.
A man with grayish-purple hair.
He had a vague impression of "grayish-purple," so vague that the more carefully he thought about it, the more confused he became.
"Bang."
A loud bang brought Qin Ye back to his senses.
Qin Ye frowned as he looked at the irritable and irrational man in front of him and said, "You don't even have the courage to ask Xiao Chao directly. Who are you trying to scare by throwing a tantrum here?"
Chu Wen froze, as if he had just remembered that there was someone else in the car.
His facial features, distorted by rage, instantly turned cold.
"You came to see me, is there something you need?"
