Should I tell him?

All of his emotions were churning within his eyes, telling him that he might be able to help search for his.

If she didn't tell him, she would need a lot of time.

The pros and cons could be seen with a little analysis.

But in her mind, she suddenly thought of Meng Yuyan's words, the thorns in her body immediately dispersed, and she quickly made her decision.

Mi Xue suppressed the emotion in her eyes and forced a smile. "It's nothing. I just wanted to walk around by myself."

Lin Muhan looked at her eyes. He had also seen a hint of the complicated look in her eyes, and the look in her eyes became even colder.

"It's really fine?" His tone was even colder.

"No!" Michelle said stubbornly.

His heart sank to the bottom, and she was still unwilling to open her heart to him!

The car lurched into motion, catching Michelle off guard, and she fell back against the back of the seat.

Ring, ring, ring!

The phone's ringtone broke the silence in the car, allowing Michelle to breathe a sigh of relief. She was grateful to the person who had called her.

Lin Muhan looked at his cell phone number, then quickly tossed it to Mi Xue.

"Accept!"

It was a single word, with a commanding tone.

Michelle did not understand what he meant. When she saw the number displayed on the phone, she immediately understood what he meant.

"Stinking brat, do you have any news? Let me tell you, if anything happens to Xue Xue, I will definitely ask you …" The old man didn't know that it was Michelle who answered the phone. The moment he picked up the call, he shouted curses at her.

Michelle stuck out her tongue. No wonder he was so angry!

"Grandfather." Michelle interrupted the old man's words in a low voice, full of guilt.

"Don't think that calling me grandpa is fine, I …" The old man suddenly seemed to realize something and immediately reacted. He gently said, "Xuexue, is that you?"

"Grandfather, I'm sorry for making you worry." Michelle was more touched when she heard the old man's concerned voice.

"Are you okay?"

"It's fine, we're on our way back." Michelle said awkwardly.

The old man was very satisfied, "Alright, it's good that you're fine. We've made so many calls just now, why didn't you answer?"

Speaking of which, Michelle felt even more guilty.

Just now, she felt as if she had fallen into an icehouse. Even though she heard her phone ring, she didn't want to answer it.

She thought that it would be Lin Muhan's call, she didn't expect it to be her grandfather.

"Sorry, grandpa, I didn't know why my phone was muted, but when I saw it, it was already powered off." Michelle's face was burning. Lying really didn't suit her.

She gently raised her head and glanced at Lin Muhan, just in time to meet his eyes.

Michelle saw the faint amusement in his eyes and knew that he had heard the lie.

His face turned even redder!

"It's nothing it's nothing, it's all because I'm too nervous. I'll immediately send someone to prepare dinner, you guys hurry up and come back." The old man said heartily on the other end of the phone.

When the call ended, Michelle felt even more embarrassed. Her grandfather had treated her so well, but she had lied and clenched her phone tightly.

Lowering his head, just as he was about to hand it over to Lin Muhan, he realized that he had accidentally opened the call record. Under his grandfather's number, there was another phone number.

And the note only had one word, Yu Yan.

Heh!

Mi Xue had been a little moved by Lin Muhan coming to find her, but she had disappeared without a trace.

Just before he found her, he was still making a call to Meng Yuyan!

I only came to look for her because my grandpa insisted.

As he thought of this, the slight happiness he felt vanished. He could not help but recall the incident at the house. The sadness in his eyes became even stronger.

She handed over her cell phone, but did not say another word. It was as if her throat was blocked by something and she could not utter a word.

The car drove on without a word. Fortunately, it was past the peak hours and they were unhindered.

Half an hour later, Mi Xue and Lin Muhan had already returned to their dwelling.

The two walked in side by side. Mi Xue was slightly touched by the servants' concern, but when she walked in and saw the uncles' smelly faces, the thin-skinned Mi Xue lowered her head.

"My daughter-in-law, you must bring someone with you when you go out next time. The entire family has moved out to find you, and almost turned the whole world upside down!" Xu Meiyu smiled, and although she seemed to be concerned about something, her tone was wrong, turning it into ridicule.

"Shut up!" The old tutor growled without a trace of politeness.

Xu Meiyu coldly snorted and turned her head. The old man was biased towards Mi Xue, she had long guessed that this would happen.

"Grandfather, this is my fault." Mi Xue looked at the crowd with a faint smile. "I'm sorry, I've caused you so much trouble."

"I don't dare to take the trouble, but your stomach is expensive!" Xu Meiyu was still choking.

The old man was just about to speak when Mi Xue walked up to him. "Grandfather, I'll tell you wherever I go from now on. I won't let you worry."

"Alright." As the old tutor agreed, his temper lessened.

Mi Xue heaved a sigh of relief. At this time, Uncle Fu said that the dishes had been prepared and everyone was seated.

Speaking of this seat, Xu Meiyu was also very angry.

For large clans like this, their rankings were very obvious. There was a need to pay attention to where one ate.

However, the old man had let Mi Xue sit next to her, and Lin Muhan was naturally sitting right next to him.

The family had all sorts of thoughts in their minds as they ate.

When the old man put down his chopsticks, Michelle also put them down. She smiled and said to everyone, "I'm full."

The others followed suit and got up as well. Only then did Michelle go upstairs.

Lin Muhan watched this little girl from behind. She obviously had something in her heart, but she was unwilling to reveal even a single word.

Thinking that he would follow the monitoring trail and guess where she would go if he didn't monitor her, he was like a madman, searching the entire street for a familiar figure.

Instead, she was pulling on other men by the side of the road, her anger flaring.

He even guessed that she went to complain to Gu Licheng again, and all that she did not tell him, she told Gu Licheng.

Thinking of this, he felt like a thousand-year-old iceberg, never melting.

"Muhan." Behind him, Xu Meiyu was even more elated when she saw Mi Xue heading upstairs.

Lin Muhan stopped in his tracks, turned and looked at Xu Meiyu, his eyes expressionless.

"Muhan, this is for you." Xu Meiyu shoved a small box into Lin Muhan's hands.

"This is?" Lin Muhan did not accept it, and naturally retracted his hand.

Xu Meiyu felt a little awkward, she looked around and said while no one else was around, "Today, Yu Yan came to my house. Originally, I wanted to personally pass this to you, but coincidentally, you're not here."

"Oh?" Lin Muhan indifferently agreed.

Xu Meiyu was slightly shocked, she remembered that Meng Yuyan had told her about the box before.

The current scene was simply too peaceful.

This was too abnormal!

Seeing that Lin Muhan did not even have the intention to extend his hands, Xu Meiyu could only press it into his hands again, "She wants me to pass it over, only when it is in your hands will I be considered as completing the mission!"

Lin Muhan did not decline and went upstairs with the box.

This time, however, he did not go to his room. Instead, he went to his study.

Xu Meiyu, who was following behind her, saw everything clearly, and the corners of her lips unconsciously raised. She knew that Lin Muhan was just showing a cold face, but her heart was in turmoil.

After the initial haze had been swept away, she could sense that the sky was going to change in the near future.

In Lin Muhan's room, Mi Xue thought that he would definitely be angry today, and that he would not be able to avoid a bit of torture.

When she heard the familiar footsteps approaching the door, her heart leaped into her throat.

However, it didn't take long before the sound of footsteps could be heard.

He didn't even stop!

She heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she felt a sense of loss.

When people had expectations, they would be disappointed.

"What should I do?" She went back to bed and covered herself with a thin blanket.

She wanted to buy back the house, but she didn't even know who had the house now. Right now, she could only place her hopes on Manager Xu.

However, Manager Xu had also said that the chances of this happening were slim.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose!" Tears couldn't help but roll down her cheeks, dripping onto the thin carpet and quickly spreading out.

Those memories that she hadn't thought about for a long time resurfaced in front of her eyes, as if she was once again looking at her parents and her incomparably happy self.

Everything had unknowingly changed!

She leaned weakly on the bed. She didn't know if the temperature of the air-conditioning in the room was too low or if the cover was too low. She felt her whole body go cold.

"Mom, I will definitely buy this house back!" It was as if Michelle was trying to convince herself, as she vowed solemnly to open her mouth. However, her heart felt as if it had been cut open again as pain struck her once more without warning.

Inside the room, it was dark except for the faint sounds of Mixue's breathing and the rustling of the curtains caused by the wind. It was all the more lonely.

In the study room next door, Lin Muhan was sitting in front of a desk, one hand playing with the box that Xu Meiyu had given him.

He had seen this box before.

Not long ago, when Mi Xue went to sell her rings, Meng Yuyan coincidentally went to buy rings.

At that time, what she bought was not one, but a pair!

The female ring was naturally worn on Meng Yuyan's hand, and the male ring, because there were a lot of media outlets at that time, naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to do such a thing, and let Meng Yuyan take it back first.

With this, he had forgotten.

Now that Meng Yuyan had sent the box over, everyone would understand the meaning behind it.

The corner of his mouth raised into a smile, which had an unknown meaning, Lin Muhan did not open the box, but looked as if he had already thought of a solution.

"She came today!" Lin Muhan's eyes flashed as the smile on his face grew wider.

Ring, ring, ring!

The phone on the table suddenly rang. Without any hesitation, he threw the exquisite velvet box to the side and glanced at the two words "Secretary Lee" on the phone screen. Lin Muhan's eyes flashed and quickly connected the call.
