"En!"

Although her face was still calm, her heart was shaking violently.

She could be considered someone who had experienced some things. She had experienced the life and death situations on the operating table. She had experienced bloody scenes as well, but she had never been as scared as when she faced this man.

This kind of man was poison, a Gu. It made people involuntarily approach him, causing them to be unable to extricate themselves from his fall.

If she had quarreled with him, he would have found an opportunity to vent his anger on her, and at the same time, he wouldn't be so depressed. However, she was the one who was able to hold her temper in.

He didn't move, and she remained silent. After a while, he coldly let go of her chin. There was a deep red bruise on her white skin.

"Mu Ran, you are really selfish!"

He sneered as he glanced at the phone she had on the table. An outdated model with a worn out shell. No wonder there was no electricity?

"From now on, you have to use this phone 24 hours a day!"

He took a cell phone out of his pants pocket and tossed it beside her, ordering her coldly.

He had been planning to give her this phone since he couldn't reach her on the first day of the call.

The special phone inside the Dragon Gate was only used to give it to her partner or someone she cared about. As long as she turned it on, no matter where she was, the system would be able to find her immediately.

He glanced at him and then tilted his head to look at the phone. The silver colored machine's shell was emitting a quiet and sharp light, and the back was facing upwards. With a glance, she could see that dragon design was baring its fangs and claws, making people not dare to look directly at it.

"No need to go through so much trouble, I can still use my phone —"

Before she could finish her sentence, her cell phone rang. She was about to reach out to grab it when he snatched it away.

However, she still saw that the caller ID was from Lin Wencheng. She had deleted his account number and decided to marry the man in front of her. She had saved him once again, telling herself to get used to treating him as a stranger.

"Can it still be used?"

He asked coldly after taking a look at the caller ID. His already livid face was instantly covered in a layer of frightening light.

She was at a loss for words, and then he slammed her old cell phone against the opposite wall. There was an earth-shattering crash, and the phone lay scattered on the floor, just a pile of wreckage left.

Mu Wenwen was so scared that he covered his mouth with his hands. He jumped up from the sofa and looked at the mess on the ground before staring at him in fear. His pale lips opened, but no words came out.

Gu Mo Cheng shot a cold glance at her, but her hands were still shaking. It was obvious that she was truly frightened by him. He snorted coldly and turned around to leave, slamming her anti-theft door to the sky.

After a long time, Mu Yurou recovered from her fear and took a few deep breaths to calm her pounding heart. Then, she slowly walked over to the pile of wreckage to find her mobile phone card and switched it to the silver-grey mobile phone.

Was this man insane?

She's only been missing for a week, but that doesn't matter to him, does it?

If he could help her as a wife and a lover, shouldn't he thank her? He actually dropped something? Her temper was really bad!

However, while she was in the Cloud City, she didn't know that in this week, the entire city had been turned upside down by him. He had almost flipped over the entire Jia Country just to find her.

Meanwhile, Gu Mo Cheng, who was frantically running away, was sitting in his car and restlessly crawling his hair. He didn't know what was going on with him, but after finding out that she had returned, he unexpectedly wanted to see her so much.

He should have carried out his plan peacefully from then on, humiliating the Mu family and destroying them one step at a time. Yet, he didn't even care about the business of his chess piece. He hadn't slept well in the past week because of her disappearance, and he wasn't in the mood to work.

He remembered how the dragon, after following him for several days in a row, had said to him, with a sorrowful look on his face,

"Boss, are you crazy?"

He started the car and comforted himself. He was just carrying out his duties as a husband, and it was his duty to search for his wife when she disappeared.

That's all. Hm! That must be it!

After Mu Wenwen used the phone that he had given her to switch on, short messages constantly rang. They were all messages indicating that there were missed calls. In the past, hardly anyone would look for her when she went out.

Why were there so many of them this time? She curled up on the sofa until her hands ached and found that all the missed calls were from him. She was suddenly able to understand why he had been so angry.

But why was he looking for her?

She held onto her cellphone, hesitating as to whether she should give him a call. He didn't say anything just now, so she guessed it was something important. But after making so many calls …

She didn't know if she should call him for a headache, so she threw down her phone and went to take a shower. The moment she entered the bathroom, she shrieked in fright.

The originally simple washstand was now filled with items for men, such as toothbrushes, shampoo, razors, etc. Every hair wash was a luxury that came with a big brand of luxury goods …

She was used to having only two or three things of her own. Suddenly, she came face to face with such a dazzling and luxurious collection. Furthermore, it was a pile of luxury goods! For a moment, she mistakenly thought that she had entered someone else's bathroom.

After staring blankly for a while, she rushed out of the bathroom and went to the bedroom. Sure enough, there were traces of having slept on the bed. There was a man's robe hanging on the clothes rack next to her.

He resisted the urge to throw the clothes out, turned around and went back into the living room, grabbed his phone and called him. Now he didn't need to hesitate anymore.

When the phone was answered, her tone was very bad. The world she had always been guarding was suddenly disturbed. This feeling of unease made her extremely depressed.

"What's wrong with my things?"

He seemed to be stunned for a moment before continuing,

"What?"

His tone seemed to contain the anger from a moment ago.

She tried to calm herself down and said through clenched teeth,

"It's the one you left with me!"

"Oh, I lived there for a few days!"

He continued to answer calmly, as if he were talking about an insignificant matter, even though it was extremely depressing for her.

In the beginning, when he could not contact her, he decided to stay at her place and wait for her to come back. After waiting for a few days, he finally gave up and did not go back.

Mo Ran took a deep breath — a deep breath — and then a deep breath — and finally she said calmly,

"Then, Mr. Gu, should we take them away after we're done?"

He asked her innocently,

"Why are you taking it away?"

She was furious and stood there for a long time, unable to think of any reason to refute him. When she stopped talking, he continued.

"Your little place is quite warm. I'm very interested in staying here!"

"I'm sorry, but I'm not interested!"

She interrupted him coldly, but a small flame of anger rose in her heart.

Then she heard him chuckle at the other end,

"Talking to your husband like this, isn't that a bit too hurting your relationship with him?"

"I don't think we have any feelings for each other. If there's time, please come over and take it away. Otherwise, I'll treat it like trash!"

Then she hung up.

Didn't this man just leave out of anger? Why was he in a good mood to tease her at this moment? He was really temperamental and nervous.
