"I'll go to the company." He felt a little relieved and said in a deep voice, "I'll take her out of the hospital when she wakes up." He turned around and his long legs were just about to step over Gu Ziyao to the elevator beside the corridor, but he was stopped. He looked up and saw Gu Ziyao's face was slightly embarrassed. He smiled and lifted his chin toward the ward. Mu Yichen paused, then swept his deep and indifferent eyes over the ward and saw the hospital bed. The people on the bed had woken up and were looking at them with black and clear eyes. Lowering his eyes and spreading his aura, he said to Gu Ziyao in a deep voice, "Wait a minute." Seeing the tall and straight figure slowly walking over from afar, Lan Xi's small hand covered his forehead. His face was slightly hot, and he felt a bit dizzy. He felt as if he was still burning. "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" He leaned over with his arms on the bed and asked indifferently. "Mm." She realized that her voice was hoarse. He nodded. "Then rest for a while." "Did you send me here?" He paused and frowned slightly. "Your dad's health is not good. It's not suitable for him to go out. I'll drive you there." Lanxi's long eyelashes hung down. She didn't want to think about the truth in his words, but she had seen the fact clearly. Since Mo Ruqing entered the door of the Mu family, she had lost all her status, whether in her father's heart or in that big mansion. "Oh." Her eyes were clear and bright as if she didn't care. It seemed that Mu Yichen's tall and straight figure was about to get up after everything was said. A soft little hand suddenly climbed onto his sleeve, with a hint of anxiety but sincerity. It slipped down his silk shirt, held his wrist that was exposed in the air, and wrapped him up in a delicate cool temperature. Mu Yichen was stunned. Lan Xi's small face burned until it was completely red. Her palms were also sweating, but she bit her lips and stubbornly grabbed him. Fortunately, he also maintained this posture. Only after she had calmed down did she try her best to gather her courage and raise her eyes. In a soft voice, she said, "Mu Yichen... thank you." Thank you. I felt that the whole world hated me. When I was cold, it gave me a strange yet iron-sharp warmth. Her long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, and the blush on her face faded. She bit her lower lip gently with her teeth, "I... didn't like you before, but I probably didn't like your mother either. It has nothing to do with you." "Don't blame me, okay?" "You're a nice person. It's good for me that I don't call you brother. I refuse to call you brother because... I haven't called you before. It's strange. I'll try to change my address in the future. Is that okay?" Then, she looked up. In her clear eyes, there was a desire for warmth and goodwill without any cover. Like a small and transparent clam, it quietly opened its defense and revealed its softest part to him. The hand wrapped around his wrist was soft and tightly wrapped around it. Mu Yingchen's deep and cold eyes met hers. In an instant, an electric current seemed to flow from his heart to his limbs and bones. A trace of coldness appeared in his eyes, and he pursed his thin lips coldly. It was as if he wanted to maintain a trace of clarity so that he could still retain some sense of reason in her hot eyes, which were so quick to melt people. ###Chapter23,The Lovingness The little hand wrapped around his body and made him feel hot. It was about to touch his long-frozen heart. His cold eyes resisted it, but it was in vain. He still didn't want to, but because of her soft tender voice and tender begging, he was defeated and fell to the ground to compromise. He lowered his eyes and hid all his emotions with his thick eyelashes. Mu Yichen pulled out his hand and said coldly, "Take a rest first." That cold voice made Lanxi lose her mind for a moment. A trace of confusion flashed across her little face. Could it be useless? Lan Xi's heart was so entangled that he was on the verge of death. He gritted his teeth in a hurry and wrapped his fingers around it the moment he got up to leave. He tightly held onto his fingers and did not let them go. His sparkling eyes were filled with pleading desire as he weakly called out, "Brother." That soft voice, like a strong electric current, once again sprang up to his spine! Mu Yuchen's face stiffened. It took him a long while to sweep his gaze over the woman below him. She was so pitiful, like a little animal that had been caught in heavy rain. Her head was leaning against the edge of the bed, and her arm stretched to the longest to pull him. She just looked at him and silently wanted to say something, but did not say a word. After watching for a long time, Mu Yichen exhaled deeply and his eyes were as calm as water. He asked in a deep voice, "What do you want?" She had never pestered him like this before. If there was, then there had to be a reason for her. Lan Xi's small face immediately turned red. She really underestimated this man's intelligence. But now that things had come to this point, she no longer hid the truth, and her clear eyes were still full of pity. "We have camp on Saturday, but... my father will definitely not let me go..." Therefore, this was her purpose. Even if she was in a daze from her sleep, soaked in sweat and bit her lips, she did not lose her ambition to go out. As soon as she woke up, she began to play her little tricks. His eyes were full of longing. Mu Yichen nodded to show his understanding. His strong and straight figure rose gracefully. Lan Xi was anxious and panicked. He hurriedly explained, "But I don't know what I said to you because of this. I really feel that you are very good! Mu Yichen, don't be angry!" This was very important. She really wanted to go out to camp, so she didn't have to look at the faces of Mu Mingsheng and Mo Ruqing at home. But she didn't take the initiative to show her kindness to him because of this little purpose. But before she could finish her words, a big hand reached out and grabbed her chin, pressing Mu Carlson down heavily. The dangerous and oppressive atmosphere enveloped her. Lanxi suddenly became nervous and could not say a word. "Don't look at a man like that in the future. No matter who it is, do you understand?" He said coldly. She was too young to understand the charm that he showed her intentionally or unintentionally. For men, it would make their bodies burn. Lanxi was somewhat dumbfounded. His almond-shaped eyes were wide open. After a long while, he nodded half-understanding under Gu Shenwei's cold and murderous gaze. Seeing that she had agreed, Mu Yingchen's eyes gradually softened. She stopped and stood up. "That camp..." She repeated pitifully, not forgetting her task. Mu Youchen was not impatient and said faintly, "I'll fight for it." He only felt that she was still too young, too simple. There were many things that he didn't learn how to solve, yet he didn't yet understand how to solve them. He would only end up stirring up trouble. However, what could he do? He was ten years older than her, so this distance wasn't that easy to cross. At the moment, he also felt that she was too strict with him. If she was an elder, she could still be disciplined and criticized. However, if she was only of the same generation as him, as his elder brother, the only thing he could give should be his love. Thinking of these two words, Mu Yichen frowned. ###Chapter24,Going With Him He looked at the slender figure lying on the bed with a satisfied smile, like a fox who stole a fishy smell. He almost licked his tongue and rolled on the bed twice. A sense of suffocation flashed through Mu Yichen's deep eyes. He lowered his eyes, lifted his slender fingers, and tied his tie lightly around the collar of his shirt. He frowned and said, "Alright, you may leave the hospital now. Don't stay here any longer." After that, he twirled his leather shoes and walked out of the ward. Later, Mu Yuchen repeatedly thought about the possibility of having a blood relationship, which made him start to tolerate this strange woman who suddenly broke into his life, and even... indulge her before he could figure out why. When the question was brought up at the dinner table, Mu Mingsheng's face, which was originally blooming with pleasure, suddenly became cold. He was happy that Mu Yichen suddenly decided to have lunch in Mu's Manor, which was rare to see. Lan Xi was extremely nervous, not daring to raise his head, only burying his head in eating. "How many days?" Mu Mingsheng took out the military commander's imposing demeanor again and asked coldly. Lan Xi straightened his body and said, "Just three days and two nights." And "just" three days and two nights? Commander Mu's face was slightly ugly, but he felt a little more comfortable when he glanced at Mu Yichen, who was leaning against the chair with his eyes and brows down. The old man waved his finger and said, "Yichen, the company will give you a few days off. Go with her." "Scram!" Lan Xi was shocked. He was so shocked that even the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground. Mu Yuchen's thin lips pressed together and the color of his blood faded a little. Judging from his slightly furrowed brows, he did not agree with this decision. However, under Mo Ruqing's happy and encouraging gaze, he did not say anything. "Dad, I can do it myself..." Lan Xi miserably tried to fight for it. "Your brother is here, and we can take care of each other. Isn't that good?" Mu Mingsheng raised his eyebrows in anger. Lan Xi bit his lips. After a long while, he managed to squeeze out a single word,"... Okay." "As for the company's affairs in the past few days, I will let your second uncle help them first. If you have an explanation, you can tell your second uncle. Anyway, he has been trained for more than a decade, and he will be very familiar with him." Mu Yichen nodded, wiped his hands with his napkin, stood up and said politely, "I'm full, you guys continue." But if Lan Xi knew in advance who she would meet along the way and what kind of embarrassing things she would encounter, she would not go even if she died. You're just messing with me, aren't you? "It's really not us who invited her here. She heard that she was going to come with us. I've never seen such a class teacher before!!" Ji Yao was frowning with her backpack on her back. She couldn't understand. — Their head teacher's surname was Wang, also known as "Wang B*tchy". Although he did not have any affinity with them, he still liked to join the students, hoping to get along well with them. His long eyelashes trembled a few times and he lowered his head. Lanxi did not say anything and ran to the business car to get his hill handbag. "Hey, are you unhappy?" "I'm not unhappy, but she has never liked me. Don't you know that?"
