Bai Nina trembled and did not dare to look directly at Murong Ye's appalling cold eyes. She looked down at her tiptoe and said, "Yes, she ran away."

Murong Ye took out his mobile phone and had a look at the GPS, which showed that Yun Muxi's phone was still there. If she didn't leave the phone there, she was still hidden in that place.

Murong Ye glanced at all the people present and ordered the man behind him, "Take down all the names of the people present today."

The man behind him answered in a low voice with his head down, "Yes, Big Master."

Murong Ye looked at Bai Nina again, and his cold voice was like the calling of the Death from h.e.l.l. "If there's anything wrong with Xiao Xi, you will repay it with your humble life!"

Hearing his words, Bai Nina was even more frightened. She looked up at Murong Ye in horror.

Murong Ye completely ignored Bai Nina and walked into the villa. When entering the living room, Murong Ye called aloud, "Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi... are you there? Xiao Xi... "

There was no answer in the room after several calls. When Murong Ye was about to take out his phone and to call Yun Muxi, he suddenly heard a dull sound coming from the innermost room. He followed the sound to the room and stopped at the door of the bathroom. When he pushed the door, he saw the cabinet under the washstand opposite the door was open, with a pet.i.te body nestled in it.

Murong Ye frowned, got near, and saw Yun Muxi cover her forehead with her hands and frown while sitting in it.

"Xiao Xi, what are you doing?" Murong Ye crouched down and looked at Yun Muxi with a confused face.

"I've been inside so long that my legs are numb now!" Yun Muxi raised her depressed eyes and looked at Murong Ye with a pout and wrinkled face.

Murong Ye chuckled, shook his head, and stretched out his slender arms to hold Yun Muxi out of the small cabinet. He acted softly and pitiably, afraid to b.u.mp her in this narrow s.p.a.ce.

There was a slightly reddish and swollen print on Yun Muxi's forehead. Murong Ye asked her softly, "What happened to your forehead?"

"I b.u.mped into the cabinet when I was about to come out." Yun Muxi covered her forehead and said, with her brows frowned tighter.

"Silly girl! What can I do to you?" Murong Ye kissed on the red swelling part of her forehead sweetly and asked, "Why did you go in it?"

"I was worried that you would not be able to save me, so I thought about how to save myself. If I run out, this place is too desolate and I was afraid that I would not be able to run away from them. So, I opened the window to make them believe that I had escaped. Then, I hid in the cabinet and wanted to wait for them to go away so that I could run away, or I could wait until you come to save me."

"Well, you're not so stupid. You did well this time, knowing to ask me for help when you're in danger!" Murong Ye looked at Yun Muxi with glittering eyes and said, "Xiao Xi, I am your elder brother. Brother is born to protect his younger sister, so, will you inform me of any emergency in the future?"

Murong Ye's words were full of love and care for Yun Muxi, which made her felt warm from the bottom of her heart. It was really happy for Yun Muxi to be loved, especially that she was very lonely since young as she was the only child in her family and her parents were always very busy. Fortunately, she had been accompanied by Gu Yuxuan.

Yun Muxi watched Murong Ye's soft eyes, and she was even more moved. When she first met Murong Ye, his eyes were so cold, but now, they were so warm. Did it mean that she had a great influence on her brother? She couldn't help thinking of the great loneliness of the Murong Family's old house and couldn't help saying to herself, "Murong Ye and Murong Qingtian must have the same thirst for the warmth of the family."

Yun Muxi pondered, leaned her head on Murong Ye's shoulder and savored the peace brought by her brother. There seemed to be a voice in her heart asking her, "How about accepting them like this? Accept a brother that pampers you and a kind father." However, there was also another voice echoing. "Yun Muxi, you are a jinx. Your mother and father died because of the unfortunate brought by you. People around you can't get well, and you've done a lot of harm to them...."

Looking at Yun Muxi's serious face, Murong Ye asked softly, "Xiao Xi, what are you thinking of?"

Yun Muxi returned from her thoughts and shook her head slightly with a trace of loneliness in her eyes. Murong Ye walked out of the villa with Yun Muxi in his arms, pa.s.sed Bai Nina, Monkey, Big Bai, and the other people directly before getting in his car.

Bai Nina, Monkey, and Big Bai looked at the scene in astonishment. Bai Nina stared at Monkey and Big Bai while saying, "You two trash, didn't you say that she ran away?"

Big Bai also looked at Monkey with a puzzled face. "She did... but how can..."

Monkey scratched his hair with a confused face and said, "Yes, obviously she ran out of the window, didn't she?"

Murong Ye went away with Yun Muxi directly, leaving a group of people perplexed.

Yun Muxi's legs seemed to recover a little. She smiled apologetically at Murong Ye and said, "Brother, I have caused you trouble again!"

Murong Ye was suddenly startled. His eyes were s.h.i.+ning brightly as he looked at Yun Muxi. "Xiao Xi, what... what did you just call me?"

Yun Muxi lowered her head and called him again with an embarra.s.sed voice. "Brother!"

Murong Ye grabbed Yun Muxi's small hands. He lifted the corner of his mouth and said in incoherent words, "Xiao Xi, call me, call me once again."

Yun Muxi raised her black eyes and looked at Murong Ye's eyes which were full of surprise and called him sincerely, "Brother."

Murong Ye hugged her in his arms and said, "You called me brother. Does it mean you would like to come back to Murong Family?"

He had known that Yun Muxi was his younger sister from long ago, but when he really heard Yun Muxi call him brother, his heart beat wildly with excitement, and his blood rushed to the top of his brain. He was so excited that he was surprised to find himself out of control in such way.

Yun Muxi was silent for a moment and said lightly, "Brother, I am not a cold-blooded animal. I can feel the love you and father have for me and how much you expect me to return to you. I also see your longing for family warmth. But at present, I really can't come back! It seems that I am really a jinx that all the people around me are either leaving me one by one or getting injured or getting sick. I don't want to bring my bad luck to you. Mother died after giving birth to me. My adoptive mother has raised me for 15 years but also died on my 15th birthday. My adoptive father also died when I was twenty. All the people closest to me were gone. Later, I met Gong Yu, but it seems that Gong Yu had been continuously injured since I met him. Later, I broke up with him, and he was safe and nice during the four years when I wasn't by his side. Now he had an accident because of me as soon as he met me again. Yichen also had an accident because of me and lost his memory. Even Xuanxuan was kidnapped by bad people because of me and suffered a lot. I thought this would be enough, but now Niannian is also ill. People around me seem to be under a spell. I've done so much harm to them. I don't want to bring bad luck to you."

With that, Yun Muxi paused and continued, "Another reason why I don't want to come back is that I am very afraid of such changes now. The life of the Murong Family is so different from my original life. I don't know how to face this new life; it is completely different from my previous life, and I don't know whether such changes will be a good thing, so I don't want to break the current peace. I'm in a dilemma."

Murong Ye listened to her carefully and fondled her hair. "Xiao Xi, don't make blind and disorderly conjectures by yourself. All of this has nothing to do with you." "The death of mother was a revenge by the foe. Even without you, she could not escape from it. And the death of your adoptive mother was caused by an accident when she was helping others, which has nothing to do with you. Your adoptive father fell ill in Africa and died of an inefficient treatment. All this is not your fault. People have different fates and many things are beyond our control. No one would like to see this happen. As for Gong Yu, Mou Yichen and Gu Yuxuan, they were all hurt by bad people. These are all bad people's fault and have nothing to do with you. As for Niannian's illness, it is not what we would like to see, but, because of it, Niannian and Gong Yu could meet each other and stay together like other daughters and fathers. It's their fates. You should not make blind and disorderly conjectures about it. You are also a college student. How can you still be bothered by such foolish ideas?"

"However, I don't think these are really coincidences. If only one or two of them suffered bad things, I could take them as coincidences, but why bad things happened to everyone with me?" Yun Muxi looked at Murong Ye with a serious face, feeling more and more guilty.

Murong Ye knocked Yun Muxi's forehead and said, "Silly girl, stop thinking so. If you keep being so unconfident, I'll take you to fortune-tellers and let them tell you your fate."

In fact, Murong Ye did not believe in fate, but he found that Yun Muxi was always insisted on it, so, he had to think of a way to get her to give up those foolish thoughts.

Murong Ye rubbed the top of her head with his big hands and laughed slightly. His eyes were full of tenderness, and he was so different from the person he used to be. None of his subordinates had ever seen him so gentle. Seeing the soft smile on her brother's face, Yun Muxi felt that her heart was filled with happiness. She looked at Murong Ye's pretty face obsessively, touched the outline of his smiling face, and said with a chuckle, "Brother, you look so cute when smiling. Our family gene is really good!"

Murong Ye's smile was brighter. "Haha, you unabashed girl, you are really narcissistic."

"I'm not! I do have a pretty face, so does my brother!"

"Yeah, you're right. You're the most beautiful girl in the world." Murong Ye rubbed Yun Muxi's hair again. He found that he liked the intimate behaviors between them more and more, and he became more and more familiar with these behaviors."

Yun Muxi's smile disappeared, and she said with seriousness, "Brother, can you give me some more time to think over the matter of getting back to Murong Family? It's totally a different world from my original one. I used to be so normal, and now I'm accessible to such a superb life. I really can't get used to it."

"Ok, we won't force you into anything, and we'll let you to get used to it by yourself."

Yun Muxi leaned on Murong Ye's shoulders and enjoyed the comfort and warmth brought by him. Murong Ye held Yun Muxi's shoulder. He had never had such a true feeling about this sister, who he had been searching during the last 23 years. He had imagined what his sister would look like for countless times, and later he even had lost all the thoughts of this and no longer thought that he would find his sister one day. Even when he first saw Yun Muxi, he did not feel that it was true at that moment. But at present, he realized that he had really found her, his sister, his biological sister, who had the same beautiful face as their mother.

Murong Ye thought, "Father must have the same feeling when Yun Muxi calls him daddy." "Perhaps he will be more excited than me. Father has never given up looking for my sister because he always insists that she is the only thing left by my mother at her last moment."

The car was silent and filled with an atmosphere of the long-lost kins.h.i.+p. It was so sweet and made people felt it wasn't real.

However, it seemed that they had all ignored a very serious problem—why they had not found Yun Muxi for so many years...
