"…"

Mu Nuanzhou stood in front of the villa's door and looked at the depressing black European style iron door as well as the mighty white house inside. It was as if the building in front of her was not just a structure, but a ferocious beast that could eat people, causing her to reject it. She gripped her handbag tightly and took a deep breath. She had to muster the courage to force her hand to ring the doorbell.

There was nothing she could do, since Qi Duo had cruelly rejected her request yesterday. She could only return the brush to Xiao Zhan, and the moment she thought about how she would have to go through some tough time with that man again, she would feel overwhelmed.

"Miss Mu, why did you come here?" When Adjutant He saw the uninvited person, his eyes immediately lit up, and his originally serious face turned into pleasant surprise.

He was a person who had always been by Xiao Zhan's side. He had a straight face and did not talk much about strict procedures. In the short period of time she and Xiao Zhan had been living together, Adjutant He had never felt sorry for her or underestimated her.

Now that Mu Nuanzhou saw his pleasantly surprised face as if he was welcoming her, a trace of warmth flashed across Mu Nuanzhou's heart from his goodwill. He greeted her with a bashful smile. Hello, Adjutant He, I'm here to look for him, is he home? "

"Here, please come in." Adjutant He immediately opened the door and invited Mu Nuanzhou in, while saying: "Xiao Shuai is upstairs in his bedroom, you can directly go and find him, I just happen to be going out for work right now, time is of the essence, I won't be giving you any directions."

Mu Nuanzhou saw that the Adjutant He was dressed meticulously, his arms holding onto his army hat, and guessed that he was going out just a moment ago, so he did not dare delay any further, and said: "Adjutant He, you go and busy yourself first, I will go upstairs to look for him myself."

"Sure, please." Adjutant He watched as Mu Nuanzhou left before him and let out a sigh of relief.

This is good, Xiao Shuai will definitely be very happy when he sees Miss Mu later.

Mu Nuanzhou passed through the Central Garden and opened the half-closed door to the living room. Not seeing a servant, she hesitated for a moment, then took off her shoes, wearing cotton socks, and stepped into the living room. She walked up the stairs quietly, making her feel weird that she couldn't see a servant.

She stopped in front of Xiao Zhan's bedroom door, filled with suspicions.

"She did not hear anything from inside, so she knocked on the door again. With a light cough, she started unwillingly." Xiao Shuai, I am Mu Nuanzhou, are you in there? I have something to talk to you about. "

After waiting silently for a while, when there was still no response, she frowned.

Weird, is there someone in the bedroom?

Mu Nuanzhou tried pulling on the handrail. She thought that since there was no one inside, the door would be locked, but with a pull, the door actually opened.

The thick floral print curtains were tightly drawn, causing not a single bit of light to be able to enter. The room was pitch-black, and an occasional faint smell of cigar smoke floated into Mu Nuanzhou's nose.

"So it's not here!" Mu Nuanzhou thought that there was no one around, and turned around. At this time, he suddenly heard a light cough, and then, a low and hoarse voice sounded. "Who?"

"Cough, cough …" That... It's me. " Only then did she realize that there was actually a person lying on the bed. Although she could only see the vague outline of his figure in the darkness, from the sound of it, it was without a doubt Xiao Zhan.
