Nan Zhi did not want to think about her and Mu Sihan for the time being.
She went to the Capital originally to see if Xiaojie was doing well. Since he was able to receive better education being with him than when he was with her, she was relieved.
There was no misunderstanding between Mu Sihan and her, it was just that they did not have enough fate to be together.
She was satisfied with him allowing her to meet and interact with Xiaojie.
The plane tickets were booked by Yi Fan on the order of Mu Sihan and it was first class, just like when she had came back.
Before getting on the plane, Xiaojie video-called Mu Sihan.
“Daddy, you’ll come pick us up in person when we arrive at the Capital, right?”
“You’re missing me already?”
” A little.”
“Where’s your Mommy?”
Nan Zhi was drinking water and seeing Xiaojie turning the video call towards her, she choked on the water and began to cough violently.
The man in the video was sitting in a large and luxurious office, behind the executive desk was a row of big bookcases, and there were several computers on the desk of which the data on it Nan Zhi could not understand.
The man sat on a black leather chair. He was wearing a black shirt and no tie, with the first three buttons unbuttoned, revealing his exquisite and sexy collarbones. His slender long fingers were supporting his chin. The contours of his face deep-set, his features handsome and his chin sharp and cold. His coldness and arrogance could be felt through the screen.
Nan Zhi had not been in touch with him via video call for the past few days because of all the happenings with Xia Yanran. It was basically Xiaojie who reported things about him to her.
For example, she knew that he had just come back from a visit overseas.
And how he attended an international exchange summit yesterday.
After Nan Zhi calmed down, she heard the man’s deep and cold voice. “You miss me too?”
Nan Zhi almost choked on the water again.
Before she could say anything, she heard Xiaojie cut in with his childish voice, “Pretty Zhizhi’s shy!”
Nan Zhi patted the back of the little fellow’s head. He had not been with Mu Sihan recently, but why was he siding more with his Daddy?
Mu Sihan looked at Nan Zhi’s beautiful face and a slight smile appeared on his face. “I’ll pick you up at the airport.”
“Huahua said that she will pick us up. You can pick Xiaojie up at Huahua’s house tomorrow morning!”
Mu Sihan’s well-defined handsome face darkened and he rubbed his chin with his slender fingers. “We’ve not seen each other for so long, don’t you want to see me?”
Speaking of this, Nan Zhi’s mood was a little complicated and heavy.
Although she knew that he and Shangguan Wan did not register their marriage, they had held a wedding and in the eyes of their people, they were a heaven-made and matched prince and princess.
If he came to pick her up, there was a chance he would be secretly photographed and she would be the target of public criticism and scorn. His reputation would undoubtedly be affected too.
When Mu Sihan saw that Nan Zhi was silent, he pushed the leather chair back and his slender legs crossed together elegantly, his sexy thin lips lifted up slightly. “If you’re silent it means that you admit it. Kitten, you miss me a lot.”
Nan Zhi had never seen such a narcissistic person before.
The sweet voice of the air stewardess sounded in the speakers, prompting the passengers going to the Capital to start boarding.
“I have to go. You can pick up Xiaojie at Huahua’s house tomorrow.”
It was almost evening by the time they arrived at the Capital International Airport.
Nan Zhi took Xiaojie, and two bodyguards got off the plane.
One of the bodyguards went to collect their luggage.
Xiaojie held on to his stomach and said hurriedly, “Pretty Zhizhi, I want to pee.”
Nan Zhi took Xiaojie to the washroom. She stood by the door and the male bodyguard followed Xiaojie in.
Nan Zhi took out her phone and lowered her head to call Yan Hua.
Suddenly, there was a noise.
Nan Zhi heard movements and looked up towards the direction it came from.
A line or Royal Guards in uniform came over with guns.
Nan Zhi thought that something had happened in the airport and she leaned against the wall, trying to minimize her sense of presence.
But the guards came straight towards her.
Passengers who wanted to go to the washroom were too frightened to move.
Nan Zhi’s grip on her phone tightened and she frowned.
What law did she break to have the Royal Guards come to arrest her?
After a while, a tall Royal Guard with a dignified aura came to Nan Zhi.
The tall man in the lead stretched out his gloved right hand and made a gesture. Immediately, two members of the guard came out and held on Nan Zhi.
“Miss Nan, we are the Royal Guards and come to arrest you under the orders of Her Majesty the Queen!”
Nan Zhi was unable to resist and she asked, frowning, “May I know what law I am accused of breaking?”
Nan Zhi was escorted to the car before she got an answer.
When Xiaojie came out of the washroom, Nan Zhi was no longer outside.
“Where’s Pretty Zhizhi?”
The bodyguard who went to collect the luggage rushed over. “I saw Miss Nan being taken away by the Royal Guards led by Lin En.”
When Xiaojie heard this, his big, black eyes flashed with worry but he soon calmed down, quickly pulling out his phone to call Mu Sihan.
…
Mu Sihan had just finished video conference when he received Xiaojie’s call.
When he heard Xiaojie say that Nan Zhi was taken away by the Royal Guards, his face darkened.
He let the bodyguards take Xiaojie back to Crown Palace and stood up from the leather chair after he ended the call.
The door to his office was pushed open.
Ye Fengjun, wearing a black suit, walked in with a fierce aura.
“I just got the news that your Aunt, Ye Fengxi, reported to the Queen that Nan Zhi is related to the SSS group. Ye Fengxi already found out that Gu Sheng was one of the high officials of the SSS criminal group and your brother Ye Qing’s death is related to SSS. The Queen’s most beloved grandson is your brother, so she ordered for Nan Zhi to be seized.”
Although Ye Fengjun became the Crown Prince, his sister, Ye Fengxi always had her eyes set on the throne. They had been fighting for many years and now that she had found the link to Gu Sheng, she must also know the relationship between Nan Zhi and Mu Sihan and wanted to use this chance to suppress Ye Fengjun.
Ye Fengjun looked at Mu Sihan’s tensed face and he said with his eyes dark, “Don’t interfere in Nan Zhi’s affairs. If she doesn’t give Gu Sheng up, there’s nothing she can do but die.”
Ye Fengjun saw that Mu Sihan was silent and his gaze became even sharper. “If you go to the Queen to plead for Nan Zhi, it will only implicate me and your son. Now that Ye Fengxi’s side had confirmed the relationship between Gu Sheng and SSS group, and that the relationship between Gu Sheng and Nan Zhi was intimate, it’s useless for anyone to plead her case!”
After Ye Fengjun left, Mu Sihan sat back on the leather chair and took out a cigar from the wooden box, puffing out smoke with his dark eyes narrowed.
When Nan Zhi had not appeared in the Capital, she was safe. As soon as she came to the Capital, she was caught and put in prison, and charged with collusion with a high official of a criminal group.
Obviously, there was someone who wanted her dead!
But who would have enough power and influence to offer advice to Aunt Fengxi?
