Early in the morning, the sun shone through the gauzy curtains on the floor. The rest of the large room had been moved away, and the ground had been swept clean, leaving Michelle lying on the bed.

The palm-sized face seemed to be used to describe her, and the exquisite facial features matched her perfectly, giving her quite a bit more points. Her ink-like long hair flowed down her shoulders in a very natural manner, adding a bit more to her Immortal energy.

However, she did not seem to be sleeping soundly. Although her eyes were closed, they were still constantly moving. Her long eyelashes fluttered as if she was about to wake up at any moment. Frowning, she lightly bit her lips, looking as if she was in extreme pain.

Lin Muhan stood in front of the bed, his cold eyes staring at the person on the bed. Suddenly, he sat on the bed and extended his hand, carefully smoothing the frown on his forehead. When he saw a moment of peace on his small face, he seemed to be very satisfied, his lips curled up slightly.

He didn't even notice the smile on his face as he turned and left after a while. His heart was even filled with regret. What was he doing just now? Why was his heart so heavy when he saw her frowning?

He could not find an answer to this question.

Mi Xue's sleep was very shallow. After crying for a while last night, she felt even more tired, and after being persuaded by Aunt Liu to lie down on the bed, she fell asleep not long after.

In the dream, it was all about her and Lin Muhan.

"Young Madam!" Aunt Liu only came in after Lin Muhan had left, but when he saw the corner of her lips, the smile on her face softened even more.

Opening his eyes, he scanned his surroundings with his empty eyes, and upon seeing Aunt Liu, he struggled to sit up.

"I've stewed some chicken soup and millet congee for you. Get up and have some quickly." Aunt Liu said with concern as she went forward to help Mi Xue up.

"Thank you." Michelle licked her chapped lips as if she had heard what was being eaten, and her stomach began growling crazily. Her pale face was blushing from shyness.

Seeing that, Aunt Liu laughed and said, "Young madam, do you want to go out to eat, or do you want to eat here?"

"Get out?"

Michelle looked out the window. The storm from last night had dissipated, and the dark clouds had been washed away by the sun. However, she had already stopped thinking about leaving. Ever since their marriage, Lin Muhan ordered her not to leave the room.

Her starry eyes suddenly dimmed, and her gaze once again became empty.

"Young Madam, let's go eat in the courtyard." Aunt Liu said with a smile.

Mi Xue raised her head and looked at Aunt Liu with eyes full of questions.

Aunt Liu laughed and said, "When Young Master went out, he said that it is not good to always stay in the house, I will let you go out and exercise for two hours everyday to bask in the sunlight."

He let her out?

Mi Xue thought she had misheard him, but she could tell from Aunt Liu's expression that he had really let her off the hook.

Was it because of what Xu Yansheng said yesterday? Or was it to make up for her miscarriage again? Michelle thought to herself as she sat on the spot.

No matter the reason, she could leave the cage now. She stood up and headed for the door. When the sun shone down on her, she smiled.

"Young Madam, please eat something first." Aunt Liu placed the food on a small table in the garden. Mi Xue did not decline and walked over to have a meal quietly.

"Young madam, actually, the young master is quite concerned about you. Last night, he asked me to clean your room. This morning, he came to see you before you even woke up."

Michelle's hand that was holding the spoon faltered slightly. Did he come to see her? That meant that she wasn't dreaming. Was that feeling of gentleness really from him?

After a moment, she returned to normal.

"Young master has yet to see clearly who is truly good to him, he will understand in the future!" Aunt Liu comforted her softly, "We both hope that you and Young Master can be alright …"

"Aunt Liu, can you bring me some side dishes?" Michelle tasted the porridge and said.

Aunt Liu immediately kept her conversation, "Look at me, I can't believe I'm talking about this here, I'm going to get it."

Mi Xue looked at Aunt Liu's back, then turned her head to look at the scenery around her, the mockery in the depths of her eyes.

Lin Muhan's office was decorated simply, which was mainly in a grayish-white tone. This had a lot to do with the cold arrogance in his personality.

He left Michelle's room, and because of the throbbing in his heart, he ran out of the villa without even eating breakfast. Sitting in front of his desk, he stared blankly ahead, trying to figure out what was going on with that trace of pity in the morning.

"It must have been last night." Lin Muhan thought with some anger.

Ring, ring, ring!

The phone on the table rang, and Lin Muhan picked it up angrily.

"CEO, all the department heads have arrived at the conference room. Can we start the department meeting now?" A kind reminder from the secretary on the other end of the line.

"Let's begin immediately!"

Lin Muhan withdrew all the messy thoughts in his head and walked towards the meeting room with big strides. His secretary was already waiting at the door, narrating the main contents of today's meeting while walking.

Walking to the conference room and sitting in the main seat, Lin Muhan remained silent with a dark expression.

Everyone looked at each other. They all knew that the big BOSS was in a bad mood and they couldn't be provoked.

listened intently and nodded his head from time to time, asking questions. The atmosphere was good, and only then did everyone heave a sigh of relief.

Ring, ring, ring!

The phone's ringtone that accompanied the trembling "weng weng" sound travelled into everyone's ears, interrupting the financial department's report, and at the same time disrupting Lin Muhan's train of thought.

"Who's on the phone!" Lin Muhan suddenly stood up, and scanned his surroundings angrily!

Everyone looked at each other. From the very first day of his appointment, he had announced the rules. During the meeting, everyone was silent on their cell phones.

But today, someone had violated a great taboo, so everyone was naturally looking for the culprit.

In just a moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on the phone on the table that was ringing. They wanted to say something, but hesitated.

"President, your cell phone is ringing!" The secretary braced himself to explain.

Lin Muhan's face darkened, he grabbed his phone and looked at the number on it, his expression changing slightly.

The surrounding people were all waiting for the CEO to go crazy, wanting to see who the unlucky guy on the other end of the phone was.

"I'll pick up the phone, you guys continue!"

Lin Muhan took the phone and left, and the people that stayed behind even more, did they not understand the situation, was this still their private and cold CEO?

Everyone whispered to each other as they discussed who had called.

Not long later, the door to the meeting room was pushed open again. Lin Muhan glanced at the crowd, "Continue with the meeting.

Lin Muhan walked away with big steps, his entire body was releasing cold air!

It was just a few simple words, but everyone was clear that he was infuriated. Furthermore, he was infuriated!

However, everyone was more curious about who made Ice Mountain's CEO so angry.

Lin Muhan walked to the car park, his entire body emitting a cold aura that made people not dare to go near, his face was even more terrifying. The car sped away, leaving only a shadow behind.

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Muhan returned to the villa.

"Young Master, I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't know that the young mistress would want to leave either." Aunt Liu said in a sobbing tone.

Yes, she's gone!

However, he took advantage of the time that Aunt Liu had to give her to take the side dish to escape!

Lin Muhan walked into the flower garden with a cold gaze, looking at the small porridge and chicken soup still placed outside, his face filled with gloom.

"I'll go grab some snacks. When I get back, the young mistress has already disappeared. I've searched the whole place with everyone, but I still haven't seen the young mistress. Young Master …"

"Shut up!" Lin Muhan bellowed.

Aunt Liu's footsteps paused, and she stood in place, not daring to make a sound.

"Find, check the surveillance cameras nearby, I must find her!" Lin Muhan was like an angry lion, and the aura being emitted from his body seemed to cause the surrounding air to drop by a few degrees.

Aunt Liu sensed that a storm was approaching, and didn't dare to stay for even a moment longer. She quickly went to the courtyard to inform everyone to investigate the surrounding surveillance.

Lin Muhan was the only one left in the garden. He sat on the seat Mi Xue had sat on, and it seemed that she still had her scent. Somehow, she had picked up a spoon and scooped a spoonful of congee.

He did not even realize that this spoon was used for the porridge just now.

He did not think about it at all. The moment he heard that Michelle had disappeared, a part of his heart seemed to have been moved. He even pushed aside his favorite job and only thought about finding her in the shortest time possible!

The past was like smoke. At this moment, all of them had drilled into his mind, yet they were all the scenes of him torturing her. His fists subconsciously tightened as his sword-like eyebrows scrunched together into a square.

After who knows how long had passed, Aunt Liu finally walked up to her, stood quietly by the side for a while, and said: "Young Master, from the surveillance, the young madam has climbed over the wall and left. As for where she is going to, we temporarily do not know."

Lin Muhan raised his head and stared at Aunt Liu with cold eyes.

Aunt Liu could almost feel the bone-piercing cold, her heart sped up as cold sweat slowly emerged on her forehead.

"Find her! No matter what, you have to find her for me!" Lin Muhan's powerful voice came out.

"Yes!" We'll go right now! " Aunt Liu left as if she was escaping.

Just as Lin Muhan was about to stand up, his mobile phone suddenly rang. He took it out to look and picked it up, "Grandfather, what's the matter?"

"Get the hell back here right now!" The old man on the other end of the phone was almost roaring with rage.

"I still have some matters to attend to today. I will visit you another day!" Lin Muhan rejected him without even thinking.

However, the old man didn't stop this time. Just as he was about to hang up the phone, he shouted, "If you're not coming over, then prepare to collect my corpse!"

Lin Muhan frowned, he did not understand why the Old Master wanted him to go back.

"What? Wait, I haven't arrived for half an hour. Let me give it a try!"

"Du du", after hearing the voice that came from the phone, Lin Muhan felt helpless. However, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
