Wangyue Tower.
The tallest building in Kyoto, from the top floor you can overlook the entire main street of Kyoto.
The moon shines exceptionally bright tonight, festive fireworks light up the sky, and red lanterns adorn the streets, dispelling the darkness and loneliness of the night.
Sudden.
A figure flashed by and arrived at the top floor of Wangyue Tower.
The man put Mu Chenshuang down and released the pressure points on her body.
Mu Chenshuang took a deep breath and looked up at the man in front of her. In the dark pavilion, the man was dressed in a black outfit, with a silver mask on his face and a black headscarf covering his head so tightly that not a single hair could be seen.
What are you planning to do now?
Mu Chenshuang angrily questioned.
The man looked at her, his deep voice ringing out, "Tonight is New Year's Eve, and I'd like you to watch the fireworks with me."
Mu Chenshuang immediately cursed, "You're absolutely insane!"
After she finished cursing, she turned to leave, but a deep male voice came from behind her, "If you leave, I will bring you back again."
The serious tone indicated there was no joking at all.
Mu Chenshuang paused in her steps.
Calm down, she realized she couldn't leave now; she needed to find a way to get her hairpin back.
Mu Chenshuang turned around and looked at him, asking, "Why did you take my hairpin earlier?"
"You really like that hairpin?" The man's tone was somewhat cold.
Mu Chenshuang said coldly, "This has nothing to do with you!"
What would a grown man do with her hairpin?
"If you like jewelry, I can have someone make a more exquisite one for you."
Mu Chenshuang's face instantly darkened. "So you're saying you're not going to give it back to me?"
The man looked at her, his expression obscured by the mask, and he did not answer.
"Tell me, what do you want in return?"
"That hairpin doesn't suit you."
"Whether it's suitable or not isn't up to you to decide." Mu Chenshuang said, then suddenly realized something, "Do you know who gave you that hairpin?"
The man did not answer.
Mu Chenshuang narrowed her eyes and stared at him, continuing, "You care a lot about that hairpin."
The more you look at this behavior, the more it resembles Fu Junheng's unreasonable behavior.
She began to doubt once again whether the person behind that mask was really him.
The man never answered Mu Chenshuang's question.
Mu Chenshuang knew that she wouldn't gain anything by confronting this man directly, so she calmed down, walked to the bench by the window, and slowly sat down, gazing into the distance while the sounds of fireworks constantly filled her ears.
"How did you come to me in the first place?" Mu Chenshuang asked calmly.
"Asking this now is pointless."
Mu Chenshuang glanced at him sideways and said, "Alright, let me ask you another question: why do you want this child so badly?"
The man still did not answer.
Mu Chenshuang looked at him coldly, "You won't answer anything, you won't even show your face. What makes you think that I will give birth to this child as you want and then give it to you? There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world."
The man remained silent.
Mu Chenshuang's face darkened instantly, and she was also annoyed. This man was really stubborn, but it also showed that he was very vigilant and did not want her to notice any information.
Mu Chenshuang didn't ask any more questions. She quietly gazed into the distance, her deep eyes filled with unreadable thoughts. Suddenly, she sneezed violently, a chill sweeping over her, and she could only hug herself tightly with both hands.
The man's gaze suddenly fell on Mu Chenshuang, and then he bent down and took Mu Chenshuang's hand in his. Her hand was very cold.
But the charcoal fire inside the house was still warm.
Although we couldn't see his expression, his actions and reactions showed that he was anxious.
Mu Chenshuang did not resist, but said, "I am very cold. If you don't want anything to happen to this child, send me back now."
