Chapter 748: Chapter 748 - Xu Youning Ran Away?

The next day, when there was only a thin layer of morning light, the city had not yet woken up from its slumber.

Perhaps Xu Youning had slept too much yesterday, so she opened her eyes early this morning.

Since getting back to Kang Ruicheng, time had passed by day after day. But for her, there was never a day which seemed particularly interesting or contained any special meaning.

But today, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Mu Sijue sleeping beside her. His face was so peaceful in the morning light, which gave her the illusion that she could completely have him.

Such a scene had happened a million times in Xu Youning’s dreams, but every time she opened her eyes in the Kang Mansion, she would always find herself alone in an empty room.

Today was the day when her dream finally came true, wasn’t it?

But Mu Sijue didn’t love her as much as he treasured his own life in her dream, and she was just a prisoner to him.

Xu Youning got out from under the quilt. But before she could get out of bed, she was suddenly held down by a force. Then she heard Mu Sijue’s cold voice.

“Where are you going?”

Xu Youning was stuck to the bed like a nail. She stared in a daze at Mu Sijue, who had a gloomy face. After a while, she pointed in the direction of the bathroom and said, “I just wanted to get out of bed and...”

Mu Sijue looked Xu Youning up and down, but he didn’t find any sign of her running away, so he slowly let go of her.

Xu Youning seemed to have understood something and thought it was funny. She looked at Mu Sijue with a teasing look and said, “Seventh Brother, are you nervous? Are you afraid that I’ll run away?”

“That’s right. I’m terrified.”

It was rare for Mu Sijue not to negate Xu Youning’s words, but Xu Youning was not happy at all.

She knew Mu Sijue too well—Mu Sijue definitely wouldn’t say anything nice later.

As expected, Mu Sijue continued sarcastically, “You’ve asked me to make good use of you. I don’t think I’ve satisfied your wish. So how can I let you go so soon?”

His breath was warm, mixed with vague words, which pinched Xu Youning’s skin and subtly touched her heart...

Xu Youning took a deep breath to hide her feelings and pretended to be confident and firm. “When will you let me go?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“That depends on when I lose interest in you.” Mu Sijue took a look at Xu Youning with a meaningful expression and said, “Maybe you can never go back.”

“...” Xu Youning’s expression suddenly changed, but before she could vent her anger, Mu Sijue had already gotten up calmly.

He had always been like this, leaving right after threatening her.

He was indeed a pervert!

Although she was very angry, Xu Youning didn’t doubt Mu Sijue’s words a bit.

If she didn’t come up with a way to escape, what awaited her next would be all kinds of miserable “satisfactions”—torture.

However, as long as she was still trapped in this villa, she would never be able to escape.

She had to think of another solution!

After breakfast, Mu Sijue was about to go out. Xu Youning rushed to him and asked curiously, “Where are you going?”

Mu Sijue said coldly, “To the hospital.”

“You’re going to visit Yunyun?” Xu Youning was excited and full of expectation. “Can I go with you?”

“Of course—” Mu Sijue said sarcastically, “not.”

“Why not?” Xu Youning was angry and confused. “The hospital is open to everyone, isn’t it?”

“Don’t try to fool me with your logic.” Mu Sijue snorted. “I’m not Kang Ruicheng. I won’t meet all your requirements unconditionally.”

Xu Youning understood. Mu Sijue meant that if she wanted to go to the hospital with him, she had to please him first.

She could agree.

Anyway, by the time she got into the hospital, she would absolutely find an opportunity to escape. Even if there was no chance, she could make Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun create opportunities for her.

After she left, Mu Sijue would play by himself!

Thinking of this, Xu Youning said without hesitation, “As long as you take me to visit Yunyun, I’ll do whatever you want after we come back.”

Mu Sijue looked at Xu Youning with meaningful expression and said after a while, “Okay.”

He was not tempted by Xu Youning’s conditions. She was in his hands, so she had no right to refuse whatever conditions he might mention.

He just wanted to see whether Xu Youning insisted on going to the hospital with him because she wanted to see Xiao Yunyun or because of another man.

As soon as the car reached the hospital and they got out of the car, Mu Sijue held Xu Youning’s hand tightly.

Xu Youning was not used to his behavior, so she subconsciously wanted to get free of it.

F*ck, with their fingers clenched together, those passengers might think of them as a couple in an intimate relationship!

Unfortunately, her strength was no match for Mu Sijue at all. Not only did she fail to break free from Mu Sijue, but her hand was held even tighter by him.

Xu Youning had no choice but to protest. “Mu Sijue, let me go!”

“What’s wrong?” Mu Sijue tilted his head and looked at her with profound meaning. “Do you prefer handcuffs?”

Speaking of handcuffs, the memory of the night before came to Xu Youning’s mind. It took her a lot of effort to suppress the heat on her face. She glared at Mu Sijue and silently called him a pervert countless times in her heart.

Seeing that Xu Youning had finally calmed down, Mu Sijue showed a satisfied expression and took her to Xiao Yunyun’s ward.

Xiao Yunyun was getting discharged from the hospital today, so everything had been packed up. She was already waiting for Shen Yuechuan to finish the formalities and take her back to the apartment.

What she didn’t expect was that Mu Sijue and Xu Youning would arrive first.

Seeing that Mu Sijue’s fingers were clasped with Xu Youning’s, Xiao Yunyun’s beautiful face was filled with joy. “Youning, you and Boss Mu, you...?”

“Yunyun, don’t misunderstand.” Xu Youning interrupted Xiao Yunyun and shook off Mu Sijue’s hand. “I just don’t have the right to decide.”

“Ah...” Xiao Yunyun looked quite disappointed. She thought that Boss Mu had finally gotten back together with Xu Youning and successfully won back the beauty.

Xu Youning changed the subject and asked, “Did Shen Yuechuan tell you what I said?”

“Yes.” Xiao Yunyun scratched her nails hesitantly. “I’m not afraid of being exposed, but I’m afraid that my cousin and the others will be disappointed in me...”

Xu Youning said, “I have a way to keep your relationship from being exposed.”

When Shen Yuechuan came back after he finished the formalities, he happened to hear Xu Youning’s words. He came over and asked, “What is it?”

“Use me as a bargaining condition and make a deal with Kang Ruicheng. Then ask him to pretend that he doesn’t know about your affair. He will agree to it.” Xu Youning said, “Even if Kang Ruicheng doesn’t intend to keep his promise in the future, I can stop him.”

For Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun, this was great news, but they were not very happy. They just looked at Mu Sijue at the same time.

Mu Sijue didn’t say anything. His dark eyes were cold, and nobody knew what he was thinking.

However, they were sure that Mu Sijue didn’t want to let Xu Youning go.

Shen Yuechuan quietly held Xiao Yunyun’s hand and smiled at Xu Youning. “Thank you. But we don’t intend to use this method.”

Xu Youning was stunned. “Why not?”

Shen Yuechuan didn’t explain. He just tightened his grip on Xiao Yunyun’s hand. Xiao Yunyun knew what he was going to do, so she also kept silent.

Their happiness was precious, and so was Boss Mu’s.

If they let Xu Youning go back, it would be equivalent to sacrificing Boss Mu’s happiness to help them. They couldn’t do that.

Xu Youning was completely unaware of Xiao Yunyun’s and Shen Yuechuan’s thoughts. She just felt disappointed.

She had pestered Mu Sijue to come here just because she wanted to use this condition to persuade Shen Yuechuan. As long as Shen Yuechuan found it useful, Mu Sijue had no reason to stop exchanging her with Kang Ruicheng.

Apparently, she had underestimated the friendship between Mu Sijue and Shen Yuechuan.

At that time, Mu Sijue finally made a move—he glanced at Xu Youning and motioned for Shen Yuechuan to follow him to the sitting room outside.

Shen Yuechuan knew without guessing that Mu Sijue was going to discuss Xu Youning’s proposal with him. He didn’t agree just now, and he didn’t intend to agree to it then.

However, since Mu Sijue wanted to talk, it wouldn’t hurt to talk to him for a while.

Shen Yuechuan let go of Xiao Yunyun’s hand and said, “I’ll go out for a while. Check if there’s anything missing.”

Xiao Yunyun nodded and watched Shen Yuechuan and Mu Sijue go out. She was about to say something to Xu Youning when she heard Xu Youning ask,

“Yunyun, why don’t you agree? If your relationship with Shen Yuechuan gets exposed, it will cause a great impact on you two.”

“I know,” Xiao Yunyun said with a smile, “but Shen Yuechuan and I are ready to face it, so we are not afraid. But Boss Mu is different. If you leave, Boss Mu...”

Xiao Yunyun wanted to continue to say that it was not easy for Xu Youning to come back. If she just left, Boss Mu would be very sad.

However, before she could finish her words, Xu Youning said, “Yunyun, I’m sorry.”

Xiao Yunyun was confused—Why did Xu Youning apologize to her?

Before Xiao Yunyun could react, Xu Youning had already run to the balcony. Xiao Yunyun only saw her body flip over and disappear in an instant.

Xiao Yunyun was so scared that she widened her eyes and shouted, “Youning!”

When Mu Sijue heard Xiao Yunyun’s voice, he pushed the door of the ward open at once. As expected, Xu Youning had already disappeared.

“Youning, she...”

Xiao Yunyun only said three words. Mu Sijue had already disappeared from the ward like a gust of wind. She was stunned and could only look at Shen Yuechuan and continue, “Youning jumped down from the balcony...”

Shen Yuechuan came over and motioned for Xiao Yunyun to rest assured. “Mu Qi has gone after her.”

Xiao Yunyun’s attention was on a totally different spot from Shen Yuechuan’s. She blinked her eyes and asked worriedly, “Youning won’t get hurt, will she? It’s quite high up here. How could she jump down like that?”

Shen Yuechuan couldn’t help but smile. “She has received special training. It’s an easy move for her and Mu Qi.”

“So cool?” Xiao Yunyun said, “Then Youning and Boss Mu are really a perfect match. But can Boss Mu catch up with her?”

“I don’t know.” Shen Yuechuan sat down and said, “But she’d better pray that she won’t be caught by Mu Qi.”

Otherwise, Xu Youning wouldn’t find another chance to escape.

The key part was that if she was caught this time, she would not be facing Mu Sijue.

But an enraged version of Mu Sijue.
