"Hey!" He Mingrun's voice was slightly hoarse as he just woke up.
He often couldn't sleep in the hospital. Now, with Meng Yuan's presence and the dumplings she made, he slept soundly.
His body felt limp, but his heart was at ease.
Mu Jiuchen: "Yang Minjing is collaborating with Li Qingfeng."
He Mingrun slowly sat up and sneered, "Is that so? It seems they've joined forces to make us three disappear from Jinshi. Don't underestimate their previous clumsy schemes. If they succeed, our wives will run away, our lives will be in chaos, and we'll have no time to manage the company. Then they'll have an opportunity."
Mu Jiuchen: "Yes! Your analysis is accurate. Li Qingfeng has someone behind him. We need to lure that person out. From their perspective, you and Qing Shuo have succeeded, your wives have run away, and Yun Xia has had an accident."
"As long as you two pretend to be heartbroken, the other party will make a move. As for me, my Nuannuan is back by my side."
He Mingrun heard this last sentence and felt it was pure bragging.
He immediately felt a pang of envy.
Yuan Yuan had clearly returned, but she refused to even let him see her, at least to know if she was doing well, if she was eating properly. She definitely wasn't eating properly.
Busy with things every day, how could she eat properly?
"What do you plan to do?" He Mingrun knew that Little Jiu always had a way.
Mu Jiuchen looked coldly at the heavy snow outside, his voice deep, "You must appear dejected. Don't be too resistant to Yang Minjing. Occasionally, show her some kindness. The Yang family has used your connections to sign many contracts. After a while, you won't have to lift a finger; the Yang family will descend into hell."
He Mingrun was extremely pleased to hear this.
"It's better for others to act than for me to dirty my hands. I don't want to stain them either," He Mingrun leaned lazily against the headboard, habitually pulling the pillow Meng Yuan had leaned on into his arms.
"Good! How should I proceed?" He Mingrun yawned, his eyes moist with physiological tears, making him appear shrouded in a thin veil, handsome and captivating.
He blinked his eyes slightly and then asked, "Little Jiu, is there anything else?"
Mu Jiuchen: "Have you found out who the mole in your company is?"
"It was a minor employee. They've been dealt with." A sharp glint flashed in He Mingrun's eyes. He hated betrayal.
"Heh..." Mu Jiuchen gave a cold, thin smile. "You're truly foolish. A minor employee could steal your cooperation data and sell it to the other party?"
He Mingrun was stunned. He slowly got out of bed and asked as he walked, "What do you want to say, Little Jiu? Don't beat around the bush."
Mu Jiuchen: "I'll send you a video later. You can see for yourself."
Mu Jiuchen hung up the phone and sent a message to He Mingrun.
He Mingrun had just poured himself a glass of water when the video arrived, just as he was about to drink.
Upon seeing the explicit content in the video, the water he had just taken into his mouth instantly sprayed out.
"Pfft..." He Mingrun nearly choked.
He quickly dialed Mu Jiuchen's number.
"What?" Mu Jiuchen's tone held a hint of impatience.
He Mingrun said angrily, "Keep this kind of video to yourself. Don't dirty my eyes!"
Mu Jiuchen said angrily, "I haven't watched it."
He Mingrun sneered, "I don't believe you. You filmed it, so you must have watched it?" The end of his voice carried a significant implication.
Mu Jiuchen: "..."
"Nuannuan filmed it." Mu Jiuchen said word by word, extremely angry.
He Mingrun was stunned, then he laughed, "Now I understand why you're angry. This kind of thing, my woman can only watch mine, how can she watch others? Nuannuan worked hard. I already know who it is. Nuannuan helped me a lot."
He Mingrun, being pragmatic, quickly hung up the phone to avoid being caught in Mu Jiuchen's fury.
Mu Jiuchen threw his phone aside and continued watching the surveillance.
Li Qingfeng went to Red Moon, a high-end entertainment venue that was established last year.
Its operations involved illegal activities.
He had sent people for undercover investigations.
Mu Jiuchen narrowed his eyes, feeling that he could get a lot of information from here.
He had never been able to find out who the owner behind Red Moon was.
Mu Jiuchen picked up his phone again and dialed Chen Feng.
"Ninth Master!"
"Li Qingfeng went to Red Moon. You are nearby. I'll give you a phone number. You'll act together. She's nearby. Protect her safety."
"Understood, President. Is it a man or a woman?" Chen Feng couldn't help but ask.
Mu Jiuchen: "A woman."
Chen Feng: "Understood, Master. Then please send her phone number quickly."
Mu Jiuchen: "..." Why did that sound so eager?
He sent a message to Le Cheng.
[This is Mu Jiuchen. Your sister asked me to keep an eye on you. You are in danger now. I'm sending my subordinate to find you. You'll be safer together. Don't refuse, or your sister will worry.]
Le Cheng, who was squatting in a corner gnawing on a roasted sweet potato, received the message and was surprised, "Mu Jiuchen?"
Hmph, safer together? More like a burden.
Just as Le Cheng was complaining, her phone vibrated. Seeing an unfamiliar number, she knew it was Mu Jiuchen's subordinate.
She didn't really want to answer, but thinking of her sister's worry, she picked up the call.
"Hello!"
Chen Feng heard her voice and said with a smile, "Hello, I'm Chen Feng, Ninth Master's assistant."
Le Cheng: "Oh!"
Chen Feng was taken aback, "Oh!"
Le Cheng: "..." Useless.
"I'm hanging up."
"Don't hang up." Chen Feng said quickly.
"Miss Le Cheng, where are you? I'll come find you now."
"I'm at the back door of Red Moon." Le Cheng said, checking Li Qingfeng's location. He had already gone to a VIP room on the eighth floor.
"Miss Le Cheng, I'll come find you then." Chen Feng felt that being alone was too lonely. Two people together could keep each other company. It was freezing in this heavy snow, and if he froze to death, at least someone would know.
After all, it was easy to freeze to death on missions in winter.
He had been so cold these past few days that he was questioning his life.
"Then hurry up. You have three minutes. I'm wearing pink earmuffs." Le Cheng said and quickly hung up the phone.
Chen Feng: "..." Three minutes!
He quickly ran towards the back door of Red Moon.
Mu Jiuchen watched Chen Feng running towards Le Cheng and felt relieved.
...
Jiang Nuan slept until dark.
When she woke up, she saw Mu Jiuchen lying beside her, quietly watching her.
Jiang Nuan felt a little embarrassed, "What kind of person are you, watching someone sleep? What if my sleeping posture was bad, how embarrassing that would be."
His embrace was very warm, and Jiang Nuan couldn't help but lean closer into his arms.
"My Nuannuan looks beautiful no matter what." Mu Jiuchen held her tightly. "Nuannuan, are you still feeling unwell?"
Jiang Nuan shook her head slightly, "The medicine this time has reduced the pain to five minutes. I will develop an antidote as soon as possible."
Blood analysis showed no unusual components, which made it quite difficult.
"Mmm!" Mu Jiuchen didn't get involved in anything else. He couldn't help with medical matters.
"I've asked Le Cheng to investigate with Chen Feng. You don't need to worry about Le Cheng's safety."
Jiang Nuan smiled, "Mmm!"
Her phone vibrated. She picked it up and frowned slightly.
