Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The noises from the ward attracted the attention of the nurses’ station.
As this was a VIP ward, there would always be someone watching the room. Moreover, this was a sick woman left by the Yuan family, an around the clock treatment was definite!
Although Mu Chenyan had greeted the nurses before entering, she had been in the room for a long time. Besides, there was that loud sound that came from the room which was clearly captured by the CCTV. A nurse knocked on the door and politely asked, “Miss, do you have anything else to say to the patient?”
Mu Chenyan looked at Zhao Yanni and replied in a low voice, “No, nothing else.”
“Well, it’s time for the patient to rest then. Please leave as soon as possible. Leave the clean up to me.”
Mu Chenyan looked at the mess on the floor and said embarrassingly, “I’m really sorry to have to trouble you.”
As she finished speaking, she turned around and said to Zhao Yanni, “Aunty, the next time I come to visit my mother, I’ll drop by again.”
Zhao Yanni gave her a dreary smile. “Mmm, alright.”
Mu Chenyan turned around and was about to leave when Zhao Yanni suddenly remarked, “If only Qinger came to visit me often, how good would that be...”
Mu Chenyan felt a suffocating feeling in her chest, and she left the ward with an inexpressible emotion.
...
From the corner of the hospital hall, Yan Jun watched Mu Chenyan exit the lift and drive away in her little white car. He took out his phone and dialed Yuan Xuan’s number.
“Third Young Master, Mistress has left the hospital.”
On the other end of the line, Yuan Xuan was having a drink with Shao Yibai. Hearing that Mu Chenyan had left, he knew that she must have been returning to the Hibiscus Garden. Yuan Xuan tugged on his collar, put down his wineglass, and replied in a deep voice, “Alright. Regarding the stuff I’ve asked you to buy, deliver them to the Hibiscus Garden later.”
Yan Jun gave Yuan Xuan his word and lamented with a tinge of emotion in his heart that the Young Master had really changed a lot, even asking him to buy such a plaything for the Mistress!
He lowered his head and looked at his feet. In a delicate basket were two Ragdoll cats that were miaowing non-stop.
Upon receiving the order, Yan Jun had gone to the pet shop and bought these two little kittens earlier. He had not yet made it back when Third Young Master Yuan asked him to go to the hospital to watch over Little Mistress.
Yan Jun then rushed over to the hospital with the basket in hand and sat in the monitoring room, only to see the Mistress chatting with Zhao Yanni.
Yan Jun did not know what he was there to look out for.
Nonetheless, since it was a direct order from his master, Yan Jun dared not defy it.
At this time, the two little kittens in the basket must have been hungry as they were purring loudly, causing the everyone around Yan Jun to stare at him indiscreetly.
Others came to the hospital with either a basket of fruits or a basket of flowers, while he, a first-class assistant and a nine-foot-tall man, carried a basket of kittens...
Yan Jun felt extremely regretful at this moment that he did not possess any special skills!
If only he had studied properly back during his childhood and gone overseas even if it were just for a show, at least he could have been become a clerical assistant like Kang Yu, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, looking awesome, and being called Assistant Kang by people.
Perhaps, he could have even learned martial arts and become like Tian Qi, a grim-faced bodyguard.
However, Yan Jun had become an assistant, forced to carry out the most mundane of chores. Today he had to buy kittens, and he could not help wonder if tomorrow he would need to go get a puppy.
Woof, woof, woof...
Woah!
That was unthinkable!
...
Yuan Xuan hung up the call and got ready to leave. Shao Yibai coldly snorted.
Upon returning from City C, the man who had lost face had was feeling extremely upset, which was why he came looking for Yuan Xuan to drink his frustration away. However, little had he expected the fellow to be preoccupied with his Little Mistress the entire time. Upon hearing that his Mistress was heading home, he actually wants to leave?!
“I don’t understand. Regarding the matters of Mu Chenyan investigating Zhao Ruoxin, why are you indulging her?”
Shao Yibai felt that Yuan Xuan’s thoughts were like a deep ocean. There are times where he really could not decipher the thoughts of this trust fund baby.
A trace of glee flashed past Yuan Xuan’s cold eyes. “That woman isn’t always a good for nothing. Since she wants to trouble herself, I’ll just let her play around. Maybe she can even be of help to me.”
Shao Yibai could not understand it. The man before him was exceptionally handsome. In terms of features, talent, and capability, he was above average in every area, yet his heart was like a needle hidden in silk floss, an iron hand in a velvet glove.
“What do you mean? Your Little Chenyan really doesn’t just stir up any ordinary trouble. This time at City C, she nearly cost me my woman!” hearing the word “trouble”, Shao Yibai thought of only one thing.
“Then we’re even now. Previously, your woman had led her to catch perverts. Didn’t I tolerate it as well?” Yuan Xuan smiled plainly and retaliated.
Shao Yibai was speechless.
The two men suddenly felt that they were behaving extremely childishly. When it came to women, the two buddies could never stop bickering.
“Then hurry up and tell me. What plans do you have in mind?”
Shao Yibai asked and handed a box of cigarettes to Yuan Xuan, but Yuan Xuan waved it away. “I’ve not been smoking cigarettes that have such a strong smell recently. Mistress doesn’t like the scent of them,”
Yuan Xuan said with a straight face. The already handsome face now had an even greater air of a gentleman’s elegance. When talking about his Mistress, there would be a faint smile on his face.
This fellow... When had he become such a suave gentleman who was as graceful as the luster of a jade?
“F*ck! You talk as if other people don’t have a mistress!”
Upon noticing Yuan Xuan’s sinister smile, Shao Yibai almost flew into a rage.
“Mmm. Someone really doesn’t seem to have a mistress.”
Yuan Xuan seemed to want to continue with this topic until the end!
Shao Yibai madly took out a cigarette, lit it up, and fiercely smoked it. He ended up choking and coughing non-stop. With teary eyes, he pointed at Yuan Xuan’s smug face. “This is the end of our friendship!”
Yuan Xuan lifted his wineglass, his enchanting face had an alluring smile. “I don’t think that’s a very wise thing to do. After all, those without a mistress will need their friend’s comfort from time to time.”
Hearing that, Shao Yibai wanted to ruin Yuan Xuan’s charmingly handsome face.
“I won’t argue with you! Anyway, the incident in City C this time was really a scare. If I didn’t tail them, who knows what would have happened to those two women? You owe me one.”
Yuan Xuan nodded and answered, “I truly owe you one.”
“With your conniving Little Chenyan as such, aren’t you even a little concerned that she will continue to wreak havoc?” Thinking of the incident in City C, Shao Yibai felt that things were not as simple as it seemed. That Bureau Chief Liu was intentionally protecting the criminal.
“I’ve been digging into Zhao Ruoxin previously, and there wasn’t much progress with City C. I’ve thought of using Zhao Yanni as the starting point, but Zhao Yanni is extremely wary of me. This time, with Little Chenyan in action, maybe there’ll be a breakthrough.”
Yuan Xuan’s tone was plain, and there was a cold radiance swirling in his eyes. He seemed to have a well-thought-out strategy in regards to the future.
Shao Yibai laughed. “Do you plan to let your wife participate in your operation of hauling in the net?”
Yuan Xuan’s slender fingers tapped the edge of the glass as he replied plainly, “Why not? The old case from two years back has been a thorn in her heart. If she doesn’t settle it herself, perhaps she will always feel unreconciled.”
...
The Hibiscus Garden
The two Ragdoll cats had been delivered. Besides Mu Chenyan, even Ah Fu felt excited as well.
She was a child after all. In the Hibiscus Garden, besides Master, there were not any other living beings. The two kittens were black and yellow respectively. The black one had a clear and gentle sheen, and its gentle fur was like an ink-black satin, while the yellow one was like a golden ball, rolling about in excitement. Their tiny bodies very soon found the edge of the basket, and they began to miaow continuously.
Mu Chenyan stroke the heads of the two kittens and was clearly extremely delighted.
“Yan Jun, thank you so much. How did you know I like cats?”
Mu Chenyan studied Yan Jun as she spoke. The face of the top-rated assistant reddened, and the slight grievance he experienced in the afternoon suddenly turned into nothing.
“Mistress seems to be thanking the wrong person?” Yuan Xuan had yet to physically arrive but the sound of his voice had already drifted into Mu Chenyan’s ears...
