She narrowed her eyes and turned her head to look at Mu Yingchen, who didn’t seem the least bit guilty.

“How do you have my photos?” she asked, puzzled.

Mu Yingchen raised an eyebrow with a smile, “Really want to know?”

“Mm,” she nodded honestly.

After she hummed, Mu Yingchen leaned forward, extending his hand to the mouse, and in no time, opened a folder.

Su Wanxia was immediately surprised, all the photos inside were of her, many of which she had never seen before, and had no idea who took them or when they were taken.

She scrolled further, and upon seeing some familiar scenes, her mouth dropped open as she stared at Mu Yingchen.

“So you had Chuyang follow me to keep an eye on me.”

“What surveillance? I just had him follow you to make sure you didn’t get lost.”

“Liar, I don’t believe you,” Su Wanxia said with a face that read ‘I don’t buy it, not one bit.’

Mu Yingchen chuckled lightly, “I’m telling the truth, what if you didn’t come back again?”

“I was going for work, okay?” she argued back.

As soon as she spoke, she suddenly remembered something about work.

She glanced at his expression, then started cautiously, “Um, I might have to go to England again.”

Sure enough, upon hearing her words, Mu Yingchen’s face immediately darkened.

He frowned, “What do you have to do there again?”

“My work is finished, I definitely have to go back and hand things over to them, plus, I haven’t quit my job there yet.” Her voice got quieter as she spoke.

The frown on Mu Yingchen’s face slowly eased as he gazed at the person in his arms, sighing softly.

Yes, she had her own work to do, something she had always been pursuing.

She had already agreed to forsake everything in England to stay by his side, he couldn’t be so selfish as to deny her the chance to go back and say goodbye.

“Alright, I agree with you,” he said, burying his head deep into the soft nape of her neck, greedily inhaling her unique sweet fragrance.

“When will you go?”

Su Wanxia didn’t expect him to truly agree, and immediately expressed her joy, “Um, in the next few days, I’ve already been idle for quite a while.”

“The next few days?” Mu Yingchen lifted his head, clearly displeased.

“Yes, when else should I wait until?” Su Wanxia stared firmly at him.

“I’ll accompany you.”

“There’s no need, it’s not such an important affair, and you’re so busy every day.”

“Then let Chuyang accompany you, or don’t go at all,” Mu Yingchen insisted firmly.

Su Wanxia, at a loss for words, could only nod, “Alright, alright, you have the final say.”

“Then you have to stay here and keep me company these days,” Mu Yingchen stated matter-of-factly.

But upon hearing his words, Su Wanxia immediately became agitated.

“How can that be? I have to go back today, otherwise, Mom and Dad will worry.”

“I’ve already called them and told them you’re here with me,” Mu Yingchen dropped a bombshell.

“What? You—you can’t just tell them I’m here with you,” Su Wanxia was close to freaking out, wasn’t that blatantly letting her parents know she was with him? Oh my!

“Why not?” Mu Yingchen asked, raising an eyebrow at her.

Su Wanxia opened her mouth but ended up frowning, unable to speak.

Forget it, she thought. Her parents probably knew she was going to see Mu Yingchen when she left the house last night, so her relationship with him was now an open secret.

“Isn’t it improper for me not to go back today?” Su Wanxia murmured softly.

“What will I do if you go back?” Mu Yingchen teased with a smirk at the corner of his mouth.

Su Wanxia immediately glared at him, her ears starting to heat up uncontrollably.

She raised her hands toward his handsome face and, grabbing his cheeks, scolded, “Mixed vegetable salad!”

Mu Yingchen tried to stop her “claws” while laughing heartily.

While they were frolicking, someone knocked on the study door.

Startled, Su Wanxia immediately jumped out of Mu Yingchen’s embrace, hastily straightened her clothes, and stood obediently by his side.

After Mu Yingchen said “Come in,” the door was pushed open from the outside.

“Young Master, a gentleman has arrived. He says he’s your friend and has some business with you,” a man in his twenties or thirties reported respectfully to Mu Yingchen.

Su Wanxia had seen him every time she came, and he must be a steward of some kind.

“Who is it?” Mu Yingchen asked indifferently.

“He didn’t say, only that he’s your friend,” the steward said, a bit nervously.

After all, he had let the man in without the Young Master’s permission, but they couldn’t stop the gentleman who spoke so assertively as if he were an old friend of the family.

“Mm, you can go now.”

“Yes.”

Su Wanxia was also curious about what kind of friend this so-called friend of his was.

Apart from Mu Feng and Ji Hua, she hadn’t really seen any other friends of his.

“Let’s go. Your friend is here; you should at least meet with him,” Su Wanxia said to Mu Yingchen, who remained firmly seated.

Mu Yingchen looked up at her, then stood up and pulled her downstairs.

When Su Wanxia clearly saw his so-called friend, she couldn’t help but be surprised. She hadn’t expected his friend to be quite handsome.

The man was tall, at least six feet high, clad in a sleek black leather jacket, black trousers, and black shoes.

This was Su Wanxia’s first impression of him; he seemed to like black even more than Mu Yingchen did.

But his features were attractive, especially his peach blossom eyes, which were more beautiful than a woman’s and made him look debonair.

Mu Yingchen looked displeasedly at Su Wanxia’s infatuated expression and let go of her hand, walking toward the man standing in the living room.

“What are you doing here?” Mu Yingchen approached the man with a detached voice.

“Mu Yingchen, if I didn’t come, my Zhuo Family wouldn’t be able to hold its ground in C City,” the man retorted with an aggressive tone.

Su Wanxia was shocked. Who was this person? So bold and distinctive; how had she never heard about this friend of Mu Yingchen?

Meanwhile, Mu Yingchen nonchalantly walked over to the sofa and sat down, completely ignoring the man who was getting agitated.

“What does your Zhuo Family’s problems in C City have to do with me?”

“Mu Yingchen, don’t play dumb. After all, we were classmates, weren’t we? Even if it was just for one term, that counts as classmates, right?”

“Even if we weren’t classmates, on the business field, we’ve been friendly partners, haven’t we? After so many years, you don’t care at all and, just for a woman, not only did you beat my good-for-nothing brother into such a state but you also canceled all our cooperative projects. Tell me, why do you always target my Zhuo Family?” the man exclaimed.

Su Wanxia was stunned; this man was incredibly articulate.

Wait, he said—for a woman?

Mu Yingchen had done all this—for a woman?

Su Wanxia was furious; he actually had another woman!

Immediately, she glared fiercely at the calm-faced man, her heart a mix of anger, hurt, and disappointment.

Mu Yingchen, sensing Su Wanxia’s gaze, glanced her way and immediately realized his mistake.

This was a misunderstanding—
