In the later period of her pregnancy, Su Jianan became more and more drowsy.

  However, she didn’t know why she had often been awakened at night if Lu Boyan hadn’t returned home.

  Just like that moment, when she felt a change around her, she opened her eyes almost subconsciously and saw Lu Boyan lying down.

  Lu Boyan had tried his best not to make any noises. He found that Su Jianan was awake, so he asked in surprise, “Did I disturb you?”


  Su Jianan shook her head and said in a lazy voice, “No.” Then she leaned into Lu Boyan’s arms and said, “I can’t sleep unless you come back.”


  Lu Boyan apologetically kissed Su Jianan’s forehead and said, “I will come back as soon as possible in the future.”


  Only if he came back, Su Jianan would be at ease. She murmured and sank into her sweet dream within half a minute.

  Lu Boyan looked at the sleeping Su Jianan, unconsciously turning his lips into a smile—


  Tang Yulan had asked him to go home as early as possible in the evening, to reassure Su Jianan.

  He then realized that Su Jianan didn’t disbelieve him; she was just in no humor to care about whether he would do anything out of line.

  Lu Boyan hugged Su Jianan tightly and soon fell asleep.

  In another place under the same night sky, someone was wondering whether to enter the house or not.

  Kang Ruicheng’s purpose as CEO of the Su Group was obvious—to launder his illegally obtained money and to compete with Lu Boyan’s businesses.

  The business world was like Lu Boyan’s home field, so Mu Sijue was not worried that Lu Boyan would lose.

  What worried him was that Kang Ruicheng would continue to use inhuman methods. So he had to find out the truth about the collapse of Fanting Garden and completely prove that Lu Enterprises was innocent.

  And the truth might have been found out by Xu Youning.

  He took Xu Youning to City A to deal with the matter, without having expected that he would be seen through by Lu Boyan.

  “It won’t work. Even if you can find someone with a similar appearance and personality as her, you know very well that it’s not her,” Lu Boyan said.

  He thought those words over and over again, but he was anxious to prove that Lu Boyan was wrong. Then he turned back and drove toward the pub street downtown.

  It was easy to pick up a woman on the pub street in a metropolis like City A.

  He just didn’t expect to leave the bar with a drunk woman in his arms and meet Xu Youning face to face, on his way to the hotel.

  Xu Youning had just finished the work Mu Sijue had told her to do. She didn’t want to go back that early so she wandered about on the pub street. She didn’t plan to go for a drink but saw something out of her expectation—Mu Sijue was holding a woman around the waist and the intimate two were walking out from a bar.

  From the postures and the romance between the two, it wasn’t difficult to tell that their next destination was a hotel.

  Xu Youning looked up to the sky, thinking, “I nearly became crippled because of working for Mu Sijue, but he’s enjoying his time with a sexy lady. That’s really…… unfair.”


  Mu Sijue saw Xu Youning and then turned his lips into a smile. He tossed her the car key and said, “Take us to the Four Seasons Hotel.”


  “May I……?” Xu Youning wanted to decline because she didn’t want to drive for the two who seemed to have lost control of their sexual desires.

  However, before she could finish her words, Mu Sijue said in a cold voice, “You can’t say no.”


  Xu Youning didn’t have the strength to fight against Mu Sijue, so she had to drive his luxury car and pulled over beside him. Seeing Mu Sijue not about to get in it, she asked in bewilderment, “Do you just want me to drive your car back to your house?”


  Mu Sijue kicked the door and said in a cold voice, “Get off and open it.”


  Xu Youning was about to explode—”Is Mu Sijue thinking that I’m his driver?”


  “Damn, just watch yourself!”


  To Mu Sijue’s surprise, Xu Youning got out of the car and opened the door for him. She also respectfully made a “please” gesture to him.

  He stared at Xu Youning and then gracefully asked the sexy lady to get in the car first. She kissed his cheek and said, “Thank you.”


  Xu Youning raised her chin, rolling her eyes. Then she slammed the door and sat in the driver’s seat. As soon as she fastened the seat belt, she glimpsed from the rear-view mirror that Mu Sijue was holding the lady in his arms, deeply kissing her.

  “Hmm……” The smart lady touched Mu Sijue’s neck with her soft fingers and immersed her upper body in his arms with proper sexuality and allure.

  Xu Youning was amazed. “Is she too open, or am I a nobody?”


  Then she looked closely at Mu Sijue, who was obviously fond of that kind of lady and was enjoying the kiss. He naturally fondled the lady’s long, slender legs with one hand, and all of his motions looked sexy.

  Xu Youning thought, “How dare you act that way before me in the evening. What the f*ck—”


  Xu Youning indignantly stepped on the accelerator and the car suddenly ran. The two jerked forwards in the back seats and the lady gently gave a cry of fear. Then Mu Sijue held her tightly and whispered to her, “I’m with you, it’s okay.”


  The lady gave a happy smile to him at once and raised her lips. Mu Sijue kissed her again and a romantic, sexy atmosphere returned to the back seat……

  Xu Youning’s trick failed.

  “Wait. Am I playing a trick on them?”


  Xu Youning realized that she was taking offense as if her favorite toy had been touched with disdain. A small cluster of flames was burning fiercely within her heart, and she could not wait to open the door and throw the two in the backseat out of the car.

  “Xu Youning, hurry up.”


  Just then, Mu Sijue’s urging came from the back and his voice sounded quite calm.

  Xu Youning didn’t notice those details, thinking that Mu Sijue could not repress his sexuality. So she said, “Hmm. Got it, no problem!”


  As she slammed on the accelerator and sharply spun the steering wheel, the car made a perfect turn, as if it was driving by a professional racer. The lady in the backseat, who had been immersed in the kisses almost fell in disorder. She hugged Mu Sijue in panic and snorted, “What’s wrong with the driver?”


  Mu Sijue frowned and said in a low, angry voice, “Xu Youning!”


  “You told me to hurry up.” Xu Youning smiled as if it had nothing to do with her and asked, “Are you satisfied with it?”


  Mu Sijue could easily cope with that; but the lady in his arms was like a frightened bird, timidly curling itself up, with her pretty eyes filled with pity and innocence.

  The romantic and sexy atmosphere just a while ago had faded away.

  Mu Sijue then realized that it was a wrong decision to have Xu Youning drive for him. From the very beginning, he hadn’t devoted himself to the kisses at all.

  What he was caring about was only how Xu Youning would react.

  And she didn’t disappoint him—


  When they were four kilometers away from the Four Seasons Hotel, a police car with sirens wailing overtook them and a policeman said over the loudspeaker that they were supposed to stop immediately.

  “Finally!” Xu Youning thought.

  Xu Youning resisted the urge to snicker and stopped the car obediently. A traffic police officer quickly walked toward it, knocked at the driver’s door and said, “You were exceeding the speed limit by 60%. Please get out of the car and show me your driver’s license.”


  “Driver’s license?” Xu Youning shrugged and said, “I didn’t bring it with me.”


  “Then you must excuse me,” said the officer, “we have to take you to the transportation bureau.”


  Xu Youning looked back to the back seats with an innocent look on her face and said, “I’m sorry. I wanted to hurry to the hotel and I didn’t expect to delay you……”


  Mu Sijue made a sour face and said nothing, while the lady in his arms who seemed weak gave Xu Youning an angry stare.

  Xu Youning understood her very well. If the cooked duck in her hand flew away, she would not just stare at the troublemaker and she was likely to stab him!

  When they reached the transportation bureau, Mu Sijue said to the lady, “Go back now.”


  She held Mu Sijue’s arm and asked reluctantly, “How about you?”


  She was loath to part with Mu Sijue, the best man she had ever seen on regards to appearance as well as manners, and she had taken great efforts to get his attention that night. If she left alone, what she had done would be in vain.

  Mu Sijue called a taxi for her and prepaid the fare. He gave her a kiss on the forehead and said, “It’s my car so I can’t leave now.”


  “I’ll stay with you.” The lady was still reluctant to get in the taxi and she said, “I don’t mind it.”


  “But I do.” Mu Sijue’s voice was still gentle but his eyes were cold, which was a sign that his patience was running out. He said, “You don’t belong here.”


  His words sounded flattering, however, the lady inexplicably felt scared. She kissed Mu Sijue’s cheek and got in the taxi to leave.

  Xu Youning, who was watching them not far away, had already gotten goose pimples.

  She thought, “It’s really shocking that Mu Sijue is comforting a lady.”


  At the bureau, it was already 2 a.m. after they finished all the formalities.

  The car was temporarily detained, so Xu Youning called a taxi. As soon as she got in it, she slanted her head to have a rest.

  As she was about to fall asleep, Mu Sijue asked in a cold voice, “Xu Youning, did you do that on purpose?”


  “What?” Xu Youning replied vaguely, “Yeah, that lady……”


  She wanted to say that the lady didn’t deserve Mu Sijue.

  “But who deserves him? Would that be me?” Xu Youning thought.

  “Oh, in all the world, I’m the last who deserves Mu Sijue. I can’t even say if someone deserves him or not.”


  Realizing that, Xu Youning felt inexplicably upset. So she stopped thinking about it and fell asleep.

  In Mu Sijue’s eyes, Xu Youning didn’t explain much and she just fell asleep with her words unfinished. When the car turned, she was tilted and her head was suddenly rested on his shoulder.

  As he usually did, he would push Xu Youning away.

  Looking at her defenseless face, however, he was hesitant.

  “How dare she, an undercover person, sleeping so soundly with her target alone?” He thought.

  “Humph, does she underestimate me or does she have infinite confidence in herself?”


  After half an hour, the taxi stopped in front of the villa. Xu Youning probably felt it because her eyelashes moved. Mu Sijue almost subconsciously pushed her to the other side and got off himself.

  Xu Youning was still sleeping in the taxi. She leaned against the door and seemed to be sleeping soundly.

  The driver was embarrassed and said, “It’s…… Sir, could you wake up your girlfriend?”


  Mu Sijue silently opened the door and Xu Youning slipped out of the taxi. The sudden weightlessness woke her up. She immediately grabbed the door and stood on her feet.

  She could tell that Mu Sijue disdained to wake her up, so he took her out of the taxi as if she were garbage. Since Mu Sijue had never been gentle to her and she was used to it, she casually walked away and entered the house.

  Mu Sijue followed Xu Youning and watched her staggering upstairs. He suddenly said, “Xu Youning.”


  Xu Youning stopped; with her almost begging eyes she looked back at Mu Sijue and said, “I’m sleepy. Are you going to kill me? Whatever, let’s talk about it tomorrow, shall we?”


  Mu Sijue gloomily looked at her and didn’t speak. Xu Youning thought he had acquiesced in her living there one more day and she ran back to the room as if she had gotten an amnesty.
