Ah Mo just arrived at the company when Mu Yuchen summoned him. He quickly dropped by Mu Yuchen’s office as soon as Li Si called him.

“Master, are you looking for me?” Ah Mo had a smile on his face, unlike his usual stern expression.

Mu Yuchen leaned back against the chair and glanced at him. He then spoke in a teasing tone, “Did something good happen to you? Why don’t you share with me?”

Ah Mo lowered his head as his face blushed before he even started to reply, “Master, Lingshi and I have something to tell everyone. Please call Missus over as well.”

Mu Yuchen grinned. “You don’t have to be all secretive with me. Chief Chen called and congratulated me just now. Congratulations! You two are finally married.”

“Chief Chen?” Ah Mo was stunned for a moment but came back to his senses moments later.

They bumped into Chief Chen outside of the Civil Affairs Bureau just now, and because of their names, the office handling their case thought they were siblings. Therefore, Chief Chen was involved after that. As he knew about the Mu family’s circumstances, he settled it for them.

“Since it’s already been done, it’s time to prepare for the wedding. Come over to Maple Residence tonight. I’ve told Sis Wang to prepare dinner. Father and Mother will be coming as well.”

“Okay, I’ll leave it to you then.”

Ah Mo smiled humbly. “Master?”

Mu Yuchen’s eyes darkened as he looked at Ah Mo. “Ah Mo, remember that we’re brothers. You’re not my servant. Since you’re already married to Lingshi, you should address me the same way as her.”

Ah Mo took a pause as he gave Mu Yuchen a hesitant look.

“Lingshi is the daughter of Mu Tangchuan and Zhuang Shurong, and I’m her brother. She’s the treasure of the Mu family and Glory World’s little princess. This fact will never change. Do you understand?”

Mu Yuchen’s heavy tone surprised Ah Mo slightly who quickly understood what Mu Yuchen meant and nodded. “Yes! I understand, Brother!”

Mu Yuchen nodded as he put both his arms on the table and clasped his fingers. “However, your wedding might have to wait for a bit. Su Chen and Ji Zitong’s wedding is on the 28th of this month.”

“Lingshi didn’t really want to invite any outside guests. What she had in mind was to have all the family members to gather at a church to witness the ceremony, Mas...Brother. I respect her decision. Moreover, our identities are a little sensitive, so there’s no point in making a huge deal out of it.” His eyes darkened slightly as he never forgot what Mu Lingshi mentioned to him that night.

“Did something happen?”

Just how sharp was Mu Yuchen? Ah Mo’s reaction did not escape Mu Yuchen’s eyes. He hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell Mu Yuchen what happened to Mu Lingshi the other day.

“I’ve sent people to check on the security camera footage around Imperial Sky Entertainment City, and we found several suspicious images. I’ve ordered further investigations, but there’s no news yet.” Ah Mo’s smile disappeared when he was talked about it. Then, he handed the photos to Mu Yuchen.

Mu Yuchen frowned and took a few glances at the photos. His eyes darkened before he put the photos back onto the table and leaned back in the chair. “There’s no need to investigate. I know him. He’s Gu Qiwu’s assistant, Ah Yong.”

“Gu Qiwu?” Ah Mo was startled when he heard that name, so he gave Mu Yuchen a confused glance.

Mu Yuchen was buried deep in thought. After a while, he said, “He’s not going to harm Lingshi. He should be trying to protect her instead. It seems like Lingshi’s identity will be revealed sooner or later, so we should be prepared and circumvent what can be avoided.”

“Master...Brother, you’re worried that...” Ah Mo tried to find out what was he thinking.

“Our parents and grandparents care about reputation a great deal. I don’t think they’d be happy that our aunt bore such a past. It’ll put both Lingtian and Lingshi in a bad spot as well. Moreover, Gu Qiwu’s wife, Doris...that’s someone we need to be wary of. There’s no way she’s just an innocent woman when she could make Gu Qiwu marry her and give her family a huge amount of betrothal gifts.”

Mu Yuchen then grinned, his eyes appearing sharp. “I suppose Gu Qiwu had it rough all these years.”

Ah Mo was totally confused by Mu Yuchen.

Doris?

Gu Qiwu?

What did he mean by that?

“Brother, you mean...” Ah Mo asked quietly.

Mu Yuchen did not explain and asked a question instead, “I asked you to get Lingshi an agile bodyguard. Have you found one?”

“I’m still observing. It’ll be assigned in a few days,” Ah Mo replied.

“Alright, you can go back to work for now. Also, you better be nicer to Lingshi now that you’re married.”

“Yes, Brother, I will!” Ah Mo nodded and then left the room.

...

Su Chen left for around ten days. Ji Zitong went to work as usual during this period of time. Worried that she would not be used to staying alone, he called Xie Jiajia and Su Yu to go over and take a look at her whenever they were free. The two of them visited her almost every day, and they would take turns each day, making Ji Zitong feel very happy about it.

When she arrived home that night, there was some food left in the pot and Su Yu’s note was pasted on the table, reminding her to eat on time and go to bed earlier.

As Ji Zitong was about to eat, her phone started ringing. She did not need to check and already knew who was calling.

For the past ten days, at this exact time, a certain someone in another city would call her, and it would mostly be just her listening to him talk!
