Chapter 443 Go Pack and Come With Me

Mu Sijue had taken care of everything related with Granny Xu’s transferring in less than two hours.

Two hours later, the old lady was transferred from the ordinary single-person ward to the luxury suite of a private hospital. Everything was available, from kitchen to living room. And the furniture was clean and of warm colors…

If it weren’t for the faint smell of disinfectant, Granny Xu wouldn’t even believe that it was a ward.

Ah Guang was a sweet guy, and addressed Granny Xu in a very natural way, “Granny, you can rest well in this place. Seventh Brother has informed the Director here, so you have nothing to worry about, especially the admission fee. Those little rats caused all the trouble and scared you. This is all on them.”

Granny Xu smiled and looked at Mu Sijue. “Mr. Mu, thank you so much for your troubles.”

Xu Youning continued where her grandmother left off, “Seventh Brother, I am so sorry that I’ve taken up so much of your time. I can handle the rest. It’s okay that you go.”

Mu Sijue took a deep look at Xu Youning; his eyes were full of danger and warning. Xu Youning shrugged, and the subtext was clear: “I am not intimidated by you!”

Xu Youning was indeed not intimidated. The more dangerous the situation was, the more she could keep calm.

Mu Sijue narrowed his eyes, said goodbye to Granny Xu, and then left with Ah Guang.

Xu Youning couldn’t wait to close the door, and her fearless look suddenly became heavy.

If time went back to a few hours before, she would have definitely refrained from asking Ah Guang those questions.

That way, she wouldn’t know that her ident.i.ty might have been exposed, and she could continue to stay beside Mu Sijue without a care in the world until she had to leave.

But… perhaps G.o.d didn’t want her to be happy.

Xu Youning walked back to the ward slowly and was scolded by her grandmother, “Youning, you were rude. After all, Mr. Mu is your boss.”

“He’s a boss, but not a good one!” Xu Youning was indignant. “Otherwise, he wouldn’t cover for w.a.n.g Yi!”

Granny Xu was the one who knew Xu Youning best. She patted Xu Youning’s hand and said in a heavy but relieved tone, “Youning, forget it.”

Xu Youning was stunned and looked at her grandmother in shock. “Grandma, you knew that?”

“Of course I know what happened yesterday was not a joke. If it really was a joke, he must hate my guts to joke like that.” Granny Xu smiled. “But since Mr. Mu wanted to have this problem solved, I had make this go away. Having Mr. Mu owing me a favor is definitely, trust me, advantageous and harmless. Youning, I believe that he will take good care of you in the future.”

“…” Xu Youning forcibly held back the tears that were about to burst out.

Grandma suffered all the blame just so she could have a ‘free pa.s.s of death’.

However, once her real ident.i.ty was revealed, she could have ten pa.s.ses, and Mu Sijue would still not let her go.

In the evening, Xu Youning received a call from Kang Ruicheng. She answered perfunctorily, looking tired and absent-minded.

Not long after, Kang Ruicheng’s voice showed dissatisfaction. “A Ning, what’s wrong with you?”

“My grandmother is in the hospital,” Xu Youning said in a low voice, “If you have any missions, ask somebody else to do it. I am not feeling well and it’s likely that I would fail.”

After a moment of silence, Kang Ruicheng only said, “Take care of your grandmother.” Then, he hung up the phone.

Xu Youning was relieved.

At that time, if Kang Ruicheng a.s.signed some tasks to her and if she made a move, her ident.i.ty would soon be revealed and Mu Sijue would not wait for another minute to hunt her down.

At least, rejecting Kang Ruicheng would make Mu Sijue think that she was still useful and she could buy herself some time.

That’s right, she had no intention to tell Kang Ruicheng about the fact that her ident.i.ty might have been exposed.

According to Kang Ruicheng’s style, if such a good chess piece went wrong, he would definitely use up every bit of her value. If she could be saved, he would save her. But if she couldn’t, then he would just leave it.

It was alright for Kang Ruicheng to be selfish. Then, why couldn’t she be selfish for once?

From that moment on, her life really was in her hands.

In the next few days, Xu Youning didn’t leave the hospital and didn’t care about what happened outside.

Maybe it was because of Mu Sijue’s order, no one had gone to see Xu Youning and ask her to deal with anything. She took care of her grandmother in the hospital wholeheartedly, and only went out for a stroll when Granny Xu was asleep.

Every other day, Ah Guang sent over some fruits baskets in which the fruit was barely repeated. He said that they were imported fruits specially sent by Mu Sijue.

“Sister Youning, you just take care of Grandma,” Ah Guang said, “I will take care of the other things.”

Xu Youning knew how tired it was to deal with things alone, and she was very grateful to Ah Guang. She couldn’t help but ask him, “Ah Guang, have you ever been deceived by your most trusted person?”

Ah Guang thought for a moment and shook his head. “No. Although things around me are simple, and there are various kinds of people in my life. But I have never been cheated nor betrayed. I’ve only seen the most loyal people!” He couldn’t help laughing while saying, “Unbelievable, right? I think all the people I know are nice and lovely, including Seventh Brother!”

Xu Youning saw the simplicity deep in Ah Guang’s heart, beneath the surface of his toughness. She smiled bitterly and said, “What would you do if one day, you find that a person you trust has betrayed you?”

Ah Guang thought about it seriously for a long time, but he couldn’t come up with an answer. Finally, he said, “I don’t believe this would happen.”

“…”

Xu Youning silently said “I’m sorry” to Ah Guang in her heart.

She would soon add some scars to his innocence.

Ten days later, Granny Xu’s body gradually recovered, and her condition was better than before. After giving her a detailed examination, her attending doctor discharged her.

When she left the hospital and returned home, it was already past two o’clock in the afternoon. Xu Youning lay in bed exhausted; she thought there was no reason for her to ditch work the following day.

After hiding for so long, it was time for her to go back and face Mu Sijue.

The next day, Xu Youning got up from bed early, unprecedentedly. After breakfast, she was about to go out when she suddenly heard a familiar braking sound.

She was confused. Not long after, the doorbell rang.

Opening the door, as expected, it was Mu Sijue.

His tall and well-built body stood at the door, wearing a sophisticated yet casual suit. Every move of his was domineering and indescribably elegant. It was extremely eye-catching.

Xu Youning’s willpower was still strong. She wasn’t seduced by his manliness. She asked warily, “What are you doing here?”

Mu Sijue said, “Go pack and come with me.”

The more casual he was, the more alert Xu Youning became. “Where are we going?”

“Why all the questions?” Mu Sijue frowned discontentedly, “Just go pack!”

At that time, Granny Xu had just exited the room and saw Mu Sijue at a glance. She greeted him and turned to scold Xu Youning, “Mr. Mu came all the way here. Why didn’t you invite him in?”

“He doesn’t need it!” After that, Xu Youning was about to close the door.

Mu Sijue easily blocked the door and raised the corner of his mouth. “Grandma, it’s okay. I am just here to pick her up.”

Granny Xu walked over and asked, “Where are you going?”

“We are having a trip for about a week,” Mu Sijue said, “Ah Guang will come over and take care of you in the next few days.”

“Mu Sijue!” Xu Youning was furious. “I didn’t say I would go.”

“You!” Granny Xu patted Xu Youning. “Mr. Mu is your boss. It’s your duty to fulfil his orders. How can you refuse? Besides, you’ve been taking care of me in the hospital during this period of time. You must be exhausted. Go pack up and go with Mr. Mu. Take it as leisure traveling.”

“Grandma, I don’t want to go. You’ve just been discharged from the hospital. How can I leave you alone at home?”

In fact, Xu Youning was afraid. She was afraid that once she went, she would be unable to return, ever.

“What are you worrying about? Auntie Sun and Ah Guang are here!” Granny Xu smiled kindly. She, then, asked Auntie Sun to pack for Xu Youning and patted Xu Youning on the shoulder. “Okay, don’t worry. Go ahead.”

Aunt Sun was very fast. After a while, she brought forth Xu Youning’s suitcase. Xu Youning seriously suspected that she was in the same team as Mu Sijue.

Before leaving, Xu Youning hugged her grandmother and said, “I’ll come back as soon as possible.”

“Don’t worry,” Granny Xu whispered in Xu Youning’s ear with a smile, “This is a chance for you to spend time alone with Mr. Mu. Why all the rush? Have fun. I don’t want you coming back. I want the good news that you two got together!”

Xu Youning: “…”

An hour later, Xu Youning reluctantly followed Mu Sijue to the airport.

The luggage was specially checked for them. They took the VIP channel to board the plane. After they got on the private plane, they could enjoy the fresh fruit drinks, which were part of the highest-level treatment.

But Xu Youning was not happy.

The last time she got on the plane, she was almost sent to Kang Ruicheng by Mu Sijue.

That time when she left with Mu Sijue, she always felt that something would happen, but she couldn’t explain it.

Mu Sijue looked at his watch and reminded Xu Youning, “It will take a few hours to fly. You can sleep.”

Xu Youning turned her head and stared at Mu Sijue. “Where are you taking me?”

She was somewhat anxious. Since her ident.i.ty was possibly exposed, it meant that Mu Sijue could do anything to her; she had to be on guard.

“What are you worried about?” Mu Sijue asked with a smile, “Are you afraid that I would make a move on you?”

Xu Youning clearly knew about what Mu Sijue’s would do. She smiled and said, “I would rather you make a move on me.”

At least it was a one-time thing. What she was afraid of was that Mu Sijue would torture her in another way and make her suffer.

It turned out that Xu Youning thought too much. Mu Sijue took her on a vacation.

A few hours later, the plane landed on an island. Xu Youning had never heard of that island, and the software couldn’t locate its exact location. She concluded that it was a private island and it had been transformed into a holiday resort. She couldn’t help but exclaim, “”Mu Sijue, you’re really rich, aren’t you?”

“The island isn’t mine.” Mu Sijue pointed to the front. “Boyan’s.”

Xu Youning looked in the direction of Mu Sijue’s fingers and saw Lu Boyan and Su Jianan, whom she had not seen for a while.
