Mr. Bo, my wife is going on a date with someone again.

Yan Ji put his hands in his sleeves and looked expressionlessly at Mu Yunyao who was stumbling towards him: "I spent so much time planning this drama, how can you be willing not to see the ending?"

"It's you, Yan Ji, it's you who did it," she said with bloodshot eyes, hysterically yelling at her, "I'm going to call the police and tell them that it was you who framed my dad, and my dad is not guilty..."

"Framed?" Yan Ji sneered, his expression cold and mocking: "How do you think you got all those huge expenses abroad in recent years?"

"..."

Mu Yunyao paused as she dialed the number. Every word Yan Ji said pierced her heart. She stared at him with a distracted gaze for a long time before she murmured, "Chen Ye... I want to call Chen Ye and tell him that you did all this. Yes, call Chen Ye."

"Are you sure you want to call Gu Chenye?"

"..."

Mu Yunyao lowered her head and laughed for a long while: "Yan Ji, I don't dare, but so what? You are still the loser. You schemed so hard, but in the end you still can't do anything to me."

She raised her head, looking at her with bloodshot eyes, full of joy and pride: "I am the person you hate the most, and the one you want to send to prison the most. Unfortunately, I am still eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks every day, and I am free and easy. Are you very angry? You really want to kill me and bury that person so-and-so."

She took two steps forward provocatively, deliberately angering Yan Ji: "I'm right in front of you now. If you kill me, you can avenge that little bitch."

"It would be too easy for you to die like this."

“Haha, hahaha!” Mu Yunyao supported her knees and laughed, “You don’t need to make excuses. You are just afraid of death, a coward…”

She laughed so hard that she was out of breath. When she straightened up again, there was no trace of Yan Ji in front of her.

The streets were bustling with traffic and neon lights flashing, and everything that had just happened seemed like a scene she had imagined after getting drunk.

……

On the fifth day after Yan Ji left, Zhou Shuyue realized that she couldn't contact him. She rushed to Gu Mansion and bumped into Gu Chenye who was about to go out: "Chenye, is Yan Ji at home? Why can't I get through to her on the phone?"

As she spoke, she anxiously looked inside.

"She went abroad."

"Abroad?" Zhou Shuyue's face was visibly flustered: "Then she..."

still coming back?

Gu Chenye: “…Yeah.”

Zhou Shuyue: "How long will it take for her to come back? Can you contact her?"

Ever since Yan Ji stopped her from revealing her identity at the police station that day, she has been feeling uneasy, always feeling that something bad was going to happen.

"Soon," Gu Chenye replied vaguely, "Mom, I have something to deal with at the company first. Do you want to go in and have a rest, or should I ask the driver to take you back?"

"No, I drove."

……

Mu family.

Mu Yunyao sat on the sofa in a daze, her hands on her knees, ignoring the people coming and going around her. Her face was full of traces of a hangover: swollen, haggard, pale, and with dark circles under her eyes.

Mu's father's case officially entered the investigation period. During this period, the Mu family's interior and exterior, even the doghouse and fish pond, were searched several times.

"Miss Mu..."

"No, no, no, no, I only have this house. I don't have any other properties, I don't rent a house, and I don't have any relatives." Mu Yunyao was extremely annoyed by the inquiries over the past few days. She glared at the man holding the record book in front of her and said, "Have you finished checking? If you're done, get out of here."

"Bang bang bang."

Before the investigator could say anything, there was a knock on the door behind him: "Excuse me, who is Mu Yunyao?"

The two people who came were a man and a woman, both wearing police uniforms. It was unknown whether she felt guilty or was intimidated by their aura, but Mu Yunyao stood up subconsciously: "I... I am."

After showing his ID, the other party said, "You have been accused of premeditated murder. Please come with us."

"Is it Yan Ji? But I was not yet 14 at that time, so I don't have to bear any legal responsibility. It's useless for you to arrest me," she laughed provocatively, as if Yan Ji was right in front of her: "You can't do anything to me."

The two policemen showed disgusted expressions on their faces and called out a name: "According to our investigation, you were already 18 years old that year, which is enough to bear criminal responsibility."

Mu Yunyao panicked instantly and murmured anxiously, "It's impossible. I paid the money and the other party agreed to settle it privately. Besides, she is not dead."

She dodged the handcuffs that the police extended, her eyes shining brightly: "Don't touch me, I want to find a lawyer... No, I want to find Gu Chenye, I want to call him, he is the president of Gu Group, I am his fiancée, if you hurt me, you will suffer the consequences."

The accounts of their entire family have been frozen. Not to mention finding a lawyer, they can’t even pay the consultation fees now.

The police officer was ruthless and handcuffed her directly: "The president must also abide by the law."

……

A month later.

"Yan Ji, stay here. We have the best platform, the best materials, and the best workers to implement your designs. It's more promising than you going back to your country to run your small shop." Under the bright and dazzling sunlight, the blonde woman shrugged and said to Yan Ji with an apologetic look, "Although it may not be nice for me to say this, it is the fact. Your talent should be displayed on a bigger stage, not buried in such a small place."

"I..." Yan Ji opened her mouth. She remembered the time when Sheng Rugu asked her if she would go back when she first arrived abroad. She looked expectant and cautious. Although she did have the idea of ​​staying during this period, she hesitated every time: "I'll think about it."

The other party looked regretful. "Okay, I hope you will think about it carefully. If you can't bear to leave your friend, you can ask her to come with you when you are stable here. I asked you to come together in the first place, but you insisted on leaving one person in Kyoto to look after the store. If you can come together, it would be great. I also like her designs very much."

The two said goodbye and went home.

The house that Yan Ji rented was not far from where she worked. She opened the door, kicked off her shoes, walked into the living room barefoot, turned on the TV out of habit, and then turned around to get herself some water.

The TV was broadcasting domestic news, which happened to be about Mu Yunyao's intentional homicide. Just as Yan Ji was about to turn around, his cell phone rang.

She picked up the phone and tilted her head to hold it: "Hello, hello, who is this?"

"..." The other end was silent for a few seconds: "You don't remember my number?"

It’s Gu Chenye.

After asking the question, he realized that he had asked a nonsense question. Considering how much Yan Ji hated him, it was strange that he remembered his number.

So he didn't wait for her to answer, but directly asked the purpose of his call: "Want to stay there?"

Yanji: "..."

She had just answered this question more than ten minutes ago. Now, as soon as she got home, Gu Chenye called her, making it hard for her not to be suspicious: "You sent someone to monitor me?"
