Chapter 148 - Why Did Her Body Have to Awaken When Her Heart Had Died

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yuan Xuan had made a name for himself since young. His mind was matured to perfection, and even though he has an iron will in running the business, he was also very good at establishing connections. Numerous important officials in the political circles and the big shots of the business world all had high respects for him.

Despite everything, Mu Chenyan was still his weakness.

It was difficult for him to remain calm with matters related to Mu Chenyan. And this time, extreme jealousy had engulfed him!

Now that he had calmed down and thought it through, he realized that Wu Ze was right. Mu Chenyan was a woman who could persistently love him both publicly and discreetly. Thus, how could it be possible for a woman like her who had pursued him for more than a decade to commit adultery?

Yuan Xuan’s emotions had really screwed him up.

He had really gotten himself into a mess during his fit of rage last night. It was no wonder that she fell unconscious for an entire day after how he treated her.

Why did her body have to awaken when her heart had died?

He paced the floor like a lion before he suddenly lifted his leg and kicked over several bottles of red wine that were placed on the table.

Yin Shan was frightened that she shrieked and hid on one side as the dark red liquid wantonly flowed. Everyone in the room fixed their eyes on Yuan Xuan and watched as he madly struggled.

After a while, Yuan Xuan finally calmed down after much difficulty.

However, one question began to plague him. If the marks on Mu Chenyan’s body were not left by Wu Ze, it meant that someone else had taken advantage of her during his absence for two days.

That fact that the person was actually brave enough to openly leave a mark there was sufficient to prove that he was very arrogant.

Who had dared to trespass his territory?! This person really wanted to die!

The man gritted his teeth and secretly made up his mind to rip that person with his bare hands if he ever caught him.

Wu Ze restrained himself and remained rational during this critical moment.

He remained silent and waited for Yuan Xuan to make his position known. He did not believe that Yuan Xuan would make such a big fuss because of a normal meal.

“Why did she look for you?”

Yuan Xuan broke the silence. He recalled that he was the one who returned Wu Ze’s business card to her. Since she had visited Wu Ze while he was at Liu Li Villa, it meant that she did not want to let him disturb them.

It looked like this woman had apparently planned this beforehand.

“To find a job.”

Now that this situation had reached a critical point, Wu Ze felt that he would really be leading trouble to his doorstep if he did not clearly explain or take responsibility.

“I admit that I like Mu Chenyan...”

Wu Ze glanced at Yuan Xuan as he spoke. The man had descended into the darkness of the corner but his entire body was seething with a murderous aura.

“But we are physically and mentally innocent! At least that stupid girl is. I admit that I had my own wishful thinking...”

Wu Ze stroked his hair as he had a pained expression on his handsome face.

Seeing Yin Shan still on the floor in a dazed and rejected state, he smiled bitterly.

“There are many women who like me but I’ve fallen in love with someone whom I shouldn’t have. I don’t believe in any damn Gods or fate but I believe in love at first sight!”

“The first time I saw her in England many years ago, an indescribable feeling emerged in my heart. I’ve suppressed it for so many years, and I secretly compared the women who tried to get close to me with Mu Chenyan...”

Yuan Xuan’s calm expression seethed again as his emotions fluctuated. It seemed as though a thunderstorm had started in the peaceful sky that was previously his innermost being.

So, somebody else was already noticing his woman long ago!

“I’ll admit that I’m somewhat despicable because I’m lusting over your wife! Oh, to be precise, she wasn’t your wife yet at that time.”

The expression on Wu Ze’s gaze became erratic when he spoke.

“Hmph! If I had been slightly braver at that time and competed with you fair and square, she would not necessarily be Mrs Yuan!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Wu Ze’s words caused Yuan Xuan to fall into a state of temporary restlessness. His eyes were filled with anger like a fierce, caged beast as he glared menacingly at Wu Ze.

“In your dreams!” Yuan Xuan quietly spat out those three words. His gaze was shady with threatening intentions.
