Mu Chenyan was jolted awake by Ah Fu.
“Mistress, how did you fall asleep here?” “With such cold weather, the dampness in the air is the worst on the third floor!” “If you catch a cold or is affected by the damp, how am I to explain to Young Master?” “Amitabha, my grandfather’s fine. If anything had happened to you, I’d be dead…”
Ah Fu babbled on and on and began to tug at the wool blanket wrapped around Mu Chenyan.
“My goodness, this is such a thin blanket and you managed to sleep with it. How cold would that have been!”
Mu Chenyan popped her head out from underneath the wool blanket, her vivid black eyes fixated on Ah Fu. Listening to her fussing about continuously, her heart was wondering, ‘Didn’t I lock the door in the hall?’
‘How did Ah Fu come in?’
When Ah Fu saw her blur face and her eyes that were swollen like rotten peaches, she was alarmed, and she mumbled with quivering lips, “Mistress, what… happened… happened to you?”
Mu Chenyan realized that she might appear disheveled, and she began to say, “Nothing much. I came here to watch the moon yesterday night, but I didn’t expect to fall asleep. It wasn’t cold at all.”
Her voice was extremely hoarse, and it still had the nasal and depressed tone after one had cried. Ah Fu was not dumb, hence she immediately understood the situation.
She helped Mu Chenyan up from the wide wooden deck chair and said nothing more, comprehending the reason Young Master had called her in the middle of the night.
Mu Chenyan’s legs were a little numb, but with the help of Ah Fu, she managed to get to the first floor, and then she was stupefied!
The door of the hall was pried open from the outside, and a few workers were working hard installing it back…
Mu Chenyan looked at Ah Fu with her eyes full of questions.
“I called for you for more than half an hour from the outside, but you didn’t answer the door. I thought that you’re using the electric equipment to keep warm and an accident… has occurred… so…” Ah Fu’s volume decreased more and more, feeling embarrassed for her own stupidity.
Hence, she summoned a few workers over and simply took the door apart?
Nonetheless, this warmed Mu Chenyan’s heart. This girl was probably worried about her and had left her grandfather to come back as soon as possible.
In the end, Mu Chenyan fell asleep lying in the little garden on the third floor, hence she did not hear the sound of knocking.
Ah Fu scratched her head and spoke in a low voice, “Midnight yesterday, Young Master had called me to inquire of your situation, so I was worried then.” “If it wasn’t for Grandfather stopping me, I would’ve come back in the middle of the night…”
Mu Chenyan understood then that it must have been because she had hung up Yuan Xuan’s call and that his call could not get through, hence he thought of asking Ah Fu.
“Hehe. I’ve got an extremely fortunate and blessed life. I’m not going to die that easily. See how you’ve frightened yourself!”
Mu Chenyan smiled faintly, and Ah Fu was relieved.
After the matter had passed, Mu Chenyan was not that upset anymore. Instead, she was regretful of her arbitrariness.
Yuan Xuan was outstation, and he would be worried if she had a fit. When they were together, arguing did not matter much. Now, they were hundreds of kilometers apart, no wonder Ah Fu was urged to come back quickly.
She instructed Ah Fu, “Go and prepare some breakfast. I’m a little hungry.” “After eating, I’m going out to settle some things.”
Ah Fu could not grasp Mistress’ emotions. She only felt that such a beauty who was melancholy was quite pitiful.
After she had followed Grandfather to bring back Mistress, she had rarely seen her smiled from her heart, except when she was with Fifth Miss…
If Mistress did not like Young Master, then that would really be a loss!
Young Master had truly placed her upon his heart. In the call yesterday night, Young Master’s anxious tone was something she had never come across.
…
Mu Chenyan looked through her phone and found Wu Ze’s number.
“Big Brother Wu, are you free today?”
Mu Chenyan felt slightly unsettled in her heart. For lawyers who were the likes of Wu Ze, every day, their time would be calculated by seconds.
“Little Chenyan!” Even with a heavy nasal tone, Wu Ze instantly recognized her voice, and he could not suppress his excitement.
Mu Chenyan had sought him for personal matters, and he was the only one who could help her. Although Wu Ze had stated that he could help her anytime, would this be too sudden?
Little did she expect Wu Ze to comfort her uneasiness with his crisp and gorgeous tone. “Whenever you call me, I’ll always be available!” “I thought Yuan Xuan that petty guy would’ve thrown my business card into the fire to be extinguished!”
Mu Chenyan chuckled lightly. She recalled the last time when she had used her beauty to trick Yuan Xuan into returning Wu Ze’s business card to her, and she felt ridiculous…
“So, in the afternoon, we’ll meet and talk, is that alright…”
Mu Chenyan’s low voice was like a breeze across Wu Ze’s tender heart.
