Chapter 95 Missing Her

"You are well aware that I decided to start from the lower post. Dad wanted to make me a manager but I denied it." Mu TianYu sighed and leaned against the railing. "I want to achieve a higher position on my own. I don't want people to stay I got a high position only because my mother married a rich man."

"More than you, I was angry on uncle. He knows that what I and Mu Yifei have, what his own family have is all because of dad. I am sure, if not for the marriage, I was never going to get the proper food. It's all thanks to dad and then you."

Mu TianYu threw his arm around the shoulder of Mu Yuehan. "You are my big brother. You knew you were getting competition for your position but still, you accepted us with open arms. I will never deceive you. I want to spend the rest of my life under you, as your shadow."

Mu Yuehan smiled with pride and patted his shoulder. He was feeling satisfied after hearing his answer. A heavy burden was lifted off his shoulders.

"You should start stressing out because I am sure, soon dad will be giving you the position as the family head. You will be getting a lot of mess. Now you are our only hope who can save our Mu corporations from getting bankrupt."

Mu TianYu smocked from cigarette and then passed it to Mu Yuehan but he again denied it. "Hey, what's the matter? Why are you denying cigarette?"

"No reason." Mu Yuehan shook his head but a smile appeared on his lips when he remembered a particular night when Nian Tian had warned him to not smoke again.

Mu Yuehan smoked whenever he was under stress and that night, he was smocking. He was stressed because Nian Tian called him Zhan Wei when they made love and it started to trouble him.

"You smoke?" Nian Tian entered the balcony and looked at him with wide eyes.

"Sometimes." He shrugged and threw the cigarette on the ground, stomping on it with his right foot.

"You are so smart, so educated, still you smoke! Don't you know cigarette can be dangerous for your health?" She then jabbed her index finger in his chest. "I am warning you, mister. I don't like it when a person smokes. So, next time, if I saw or heard about you smoking again, I will leave you."

Seeing her hate for smokers, Mu Yuehan pledged that he'd stop smoking.

"Hey, hey, hey, I know this smile. It's a girl. Isn't it?" Mu TianYu pointed at the smile on the lips of Mu Yuehan with a wide grin on his lips.

"What rubbish are you talking about?" Mu Yuehan slapped the extended hand of his brother.

"Liar, liar, pants on fire. I know you are in love. Now I know why you loved juju island so much." He teased.

"You…stop teasing me." Mu Yuehan slapped his head. "Go in and check on mother."

"You are sending me off. I am hurt." He twitched his brows. "Will you talk with sister-in-law the moment I am gone?"

"TianYu. It's enough. Leave now." Mu Yuehan yelled with irritation. A red hue was there on his cheeks. Mu TianYu chuckled and made his way toward his mother.

"Hey, how is your father?"

Mu Yuehan leaned against the wall of the balcony and took a long breath. He needed this. He needed to hear her voice. Especially when he heard about the condition of the corporation.

"It's all mess here sweetheart." He spoke in a broken voice and fell to the ground. "My family is in a bad financial condition. My father could not take it in and he collapsed."

Nian Tian took in a deep breath, feeling the pain in his voice. Over the phone, she tried her best to console him.

"If only I was there to hug you." She spoke softly.

"I can already imagine you hugging me. Magically, it's working. You are my power TianTian, my support."

Nian Tian stayed on phone with Mu Yuehan for a long time. She ended the call only when she felt assured that Mu Yuehan was not down like the way he was when she had answered the call.

Arrangements for Mu Yuehan to spend the night in one of the VIP room in the hospital was made. He was tired because of the journey and he knew, he needed rest.

He looked at his bed with tiredness. Realisation fell upon him like a heavy burden that he was alone here. Nian Tian was not here to share his bed. He had to sleep alone tonight, without her in his arms.

If only he did not lie to her. He would have done anything to bring her here with him. But his lie, his real identity was the reason she was not with him right now.

He sighed and laid down on the bed. He switched on his phone and called Nian Tian.

"Hey, how is your father?"

"This is the same question which you are asking me on my every call. Should you not ask how I am?" Mu Yuehan faked anger.

"I know you will be fine if your father is doing well. Besides, call me selfish but I want your father to recover quickly so you can be at my side, again." There was a pregnant pause from her side. "I miss you."

"I miss you more." Mu Yuehan turned around on the bed. "What are you doing?"

"Cutting onions."

They both chuckled.

"Tell me, how is uncle?"

"He is fine. His operation was a success. He opened his eyes, but before anyone could talk to him, he fell unconscious due to the effect of medicines." Mu Yuehan informed her in one breath. "Now stop talking about dad. Talk about me. I miss you. I don't know, how I am going to sleep on the bed without you."

Nian Tian chuckled. She started to talk to him, about their days together. Mu Yuehan who felt naughty, started to talk about bedtime, making her blush.

"You should sleep now. You must be tired. Bye." Nian Tian spoke angrily. She was fed up with his dirty talks.

"Hey, at least give me a good night kiss. How am I to sleep without it?"

Nian Tian shook her head. She looked around. When she saw no sign of Marta, she pressed her lips on the phone, "Muah."

"Muah sweetie, love you." Mu Yuehan spoke before the line went dead.

Nian Tian sighed and looked at her phone screen. Soon, she'd be returning home and she didn't know how she'd sleep now that Mu Yuehan was not there.
