Chapter 198 - Tendencies

After Mu Chen and Cheng Che left the hospital, Mu Chen asked as soon as he got into the car, “What’s going on?”

After taking a seat in the driver’s seat and closing the door, Cheng Che replied, “Mr. Mu has already contacted most of the elders of the Mu family.”

Mu Chen sneered. “Hasn’t he been in the hospital all this time?”

“It’s because he’s living in the hospital that it’s convenient! This month, the number of members from the Mu family coming to the hospital for a check-up has obviously increased. All of them who came to the hospital would visit him without fail,” Cheng Che said nonchalantly as he rested his hand on the steering wheel.

Mu Chen nodded before he calmly said, “Pay attention to all the projects that these people are handling. Help me find two backup candidates for the respective projects…”

Cheng Che raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his face as he asked, “Brother Chen, are you going to purge the company of these people?”

Mu Chen said indifferently, “What can I do since they’re forcing my hand? Since they like Mr. Mu, they should follow Mr. Mu; I have no objections as long as they don’t regret their decisions.”

Cheng Che sighed. “I can’t even sympathize with them since they’re all jumping around impatiently, seeking death! I can’t even stop them…”

Mu Chen looked at Cheng Che. “Did you stop them?”

Cheng Che smiled. “I’m not stupid. Why should I stop them if they’re intent on courting death? Moreover, they left a lot of messes for me to clean up. Now that they’ll be leaving, I can’t wait to celebrate!”

The corners of Mu Chen’s lips curled up slightly. After a moment, he asked, “What about Ye Cheng?”

Cheng Che’s expression stiffened slightly as he said, “Ye Cheng seems to have chosen to join the Ministry of Public Security. The results should be out soon…”

“He chose to join the Ministry of Public Security?” Mu Chen raised an eyebrow.

Cheng Che nodded. “I thought he would join the Ministry of Finance or Economic Affairs. I didn’t expect him to choose the Ministry of Public Security.”

A thought appeared in Mu Chen’s mind before he said, “It should be for Ye Xin’s sake…”

Cheng Che nodded. “That’s what I think as well. Ye Xin is still in the ICU. When she wakes up, she’ll definitely have to deal with the aftermath. Moreover, there’s Madam Ye as well. Grandma has given the order, after all; the hospital has no choice but to pursue this matter to the end. In my opinion, Ye Cheng must be in a terrible state now. After scheming and planning for so long, he has to choose a completely unfamiliar field. I almost feel bad for him…”

“He should feel great since he chose to sacrifice himself for his family,” Mu Chen said indifferently. Following that, as though he just recalled something, he said, “Find a way to get hair samples from Ning Zhe and Ye Xin to conduct a DNA test.”

Cheng Che was stunned. “What? Whose hair samples?”

“Ning Zhe and Ye Xin,” Mu Chen said again.

Cheng Che was baffled. “Brother, what are you trying to do?”

When Mu Chen recalled the conversation between the nurses he overheard the other day, he added, “Apart from that, investigate who has recently conducted a DNA test on those two. If I’m not mistaken, it should be Ye Cheng.”

Cheng Che’s eyes widened slightly as the implications behind Mu Chen’s words dawned on him. “Brother, don’t you think this is a little far-fetched?”

Mu Chen said simply, “It’s too early for you to come to a conclusion now. Wait until the results come out before you say it’s far-fetched…”

With these words, the events over the past few days began to replay in Cheng Che’s mind. After a moment, he exclaimed, “Brother, you’re really a genius! How did you string everything together and come to this conclusion?”

Mu Chen shook his head. “It’s just something that appeared in my mind. Investigate properly. Who knows if there’d be some unexpected gains.”

Cheng Che’s curiosity spiked; he was rather excited by this mystery. He hurriedly brought his phones out and issued out a series of orders.

Following that, Mu Chen said, “If Ye Cheng tries to look for me in the coming days, try to stop him. I don’t want to see him for now.”

Cheng Che nodded. “Understood. Whether it’s Ye Xin or Madam Ye, they’ve all behaved atrociously. If he wants to reconcile, he’ll have to beg and grovel…”

Mu Chen shook his head slightly. “I have no intention of reconciling. Even if I want to, Grandma will never allow it…”
