“I didn’t expect that you’ll invite me out for a meal. Why, you’ve come around?”


  Lucy’s voice seemed to be cheerful.

  Mu Sihan in the recording took a while before he spoke, “As a Princess of A Country, you’re beautiful and I won’t be at a disadvantage if I slept with you.”


  “If only you could have thought it through earlier. It’s just an affair, we can separate anytime we get tired of each other. Then I can tell you how to get rid of the parasite.”


  “Princess Lucy, why are you so insistent when you know I have a Princess Consort?”


  “Your Highness, whether you believe or not, I was deeply fascinated by you from the moment I first saw you on the battlefield.”


  “Good, then see you tonight at Tianyuan Villa. Remember to dress up!”


  Lucy laughed shyly. “Your Highness, you’re so attractive when you’re not being serious. I’ll listen to you, see you tonight.”


  She dragged out the last three words with a coquettish tone and goosebumps crawled on Nan Zhi when she heard it.

  Later, they talked about what had happened on the battlefield. Nan Zhi found that although Lucy was on the opposing side, she had her own set of opinions about the army and war, and was not an empty vase.

  After listening to the recording, Nan Zhi bit her lip.

  He asked Lucy to dress up and meet him at Tianyuan Villa, what did he want to do?

  If it was the Mu Sihan before he was cured of the parasite, she had 100% confidence in him. But, he seemed distant and unfamiliar to her now.

  Just like what Bai Ye had said, the first woman he came back to look for should be her……

  But why did he take the initiative to invite Lucy for a meal and even asked her to go to the villa at night?

  Nan Zhi picked up her phone and sent a message to Qiao Yanze.

  Nearly ten minutes later, Qiao Yanze replied. “Tianyuan Villa is a villa rewarded to Ye Sihan after he came back from the war by the Queen. It’s located on the hillside of the western city, one of the best villa districts in the Capital. Standing there, you can overlook most of the Capital. Why do you ask?”


  Nan Zhi replied with two words. “It’s nothing.”


  Not wanting to overthink, Nan Zhi called Mu Sihan’s number after a moment of hesitation.

  It rang twice before it was hung up.

  Nan Zhi called again.

  This time, it was not hung up. After the call got through, the man’s deep and cold voice sounded, “I’m about to have a meeting. What’s up?”


  Nan Zhi looked at the watch on her wrist and said quietly, “I saw you and Lucy in the hotel.”


  He hummed coldly and was silent for a few seconds. Nan Zhi could hear him flipping through documents and just when she thought he would not say anything, he replied, “I have good eyesight and I saw you too.”


  Although she was not talking to him face to face, Nan Zhi still felt some of his changes.

  “Are you meeting Lucy tonight?”


  The man on the other end of the line closed his document and his voice was cold. “I’m about to start a video conference, if it’s all right, I’ll hang up first.”


  “Mu Sihan!”


  Beep, beep, beep……

  Nan Zhi looked at fading screen and she tightened her grip on the phone, her long and thick eyelashes fluttering……

  In the long Rolls-Royce.

  Yi Fan looked at the man who was holding a video conference. His well-defined face was hard and sharp, his deep dark eyes were cold and his thin lips were pursed tightly.

  The video was full of followers who supported him getting up the ranks.

  “Recently the Ye Yanfeng faction has begun to move. With the Crown Prince position empty, he wants to climb up the ranks too.”


  Mu Sihan’s slender finger tapped on his knee and his dark eyes seemed cold and sharp. “If he wants to climb up the ranks, he’s bound to do something. Let’s wait for him to make a move.”


  Yi Fan was recording important parts of the conference while looking at Mu Sihan’s cold and commanding appearance and he felt a little stunned.

  After removing the parasitic poison, Young Master was more reserved and resolute than ever……

  In the Qiao castle.

  After dinner, Qiao Yanze called Nan Zhi aside.

  “I heard from Bai Ye that you’ve been together with him for the past few days?”


  Nan Zhi hummed absent-mindedly.

  “So, the two of you have taken a liking to each other?”


  Nan Zhi’s mind was full of how Mu Sihan and Lucy would be having a date in Tianyuan Villa tonight and she hummed again, not hearing what Qiao Yanze had said.

  Qiao Yanze found that something was not right with Nan Zhi and was about to ask her when she turned and walked out of the door.

  Qiao Yanze chased after her. “Where are you going?”


  “I’m going to find him!”


  “Find who? Bai Ye?”


  Nan Zhi did not answer Qiao Yanze and drove away……

  At Tianyuan Villa.

  Dressed in a long red dress with exquisite makeup on, Lucy arrived at Tianyuan Villa under the escort of her bodyguard.

  Yi Fan was standing by the door of the villa. Beside him, there were many masks prepared and seeing Lucy coming over, Yi Fan said, “Princess, Young Master is going to have a masquerade tonight. Before coming in, please choose a mask you’d like.”


  “Masquerade?” Lucy mulled over the word and smiled. “I didn’t expect your young master to be quite interesting after straightening things out.”


  Her long fingers then picked a fox mask and put it on her face.

  The living room of the villa was luxurious, the crystal chandeliers bright and there were many masked men and women chatting and smiling.

  Lucy took a glass from the waiter, passed it to the bodyguard behind to examine before taking it back.

  Mu Sihan stood on the second floor with a mask on his face.

  He looked down at Lucy. As a princess, she was undoubtedly cautious. During lunch that afternoon, she would test if there was poison with a silver needle before she would eat it.

  Usually when she went out, there would be dozens of elite bodyguards following her.

  It was not easy to do anything to her.

  But tonight……

  Mu Sihan looked at her wearing the fox mask and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

  Lucy took a sip of the wine and felt a hot gaze on her.

  She lifted her eyes and looked upstairs.

  Mu Sihan was leaning against the railings lazily and seeing her coming, he raised his glass.

  Lucy’s heart pounded seeing his casual yet elegant movement.

  After finish drinking the liquid in the glass, he strode down the stairs.

  He was wearing a white suit tonight. Although he was wearing a mask, he looked very striking and stylish.

  His perfectly ironed pants wrapped around his long and slender legs, his figure was a perfect golden ratio proportion and the lips under the mask were lifted slightly, making him look handsome and devilish.

  He was like a god which transcended from the heavens and attracted a lot of people’s attention when he came down.

  Looking at him approaching her, Lucy’s long eyelashes fluttered.

  She was excited and full of joy.

  It seemed like the mysterious man was right. No one would be able to endure the torture of ‘Together with You’. Even the Fourth Prince, who was as cold as iron, could not resist her feminine charms.
