Chapter 1077 A Simple Game
Ah Guang was worrying over the exact same thing as Lu Boyan.
Because Ah Guang had prepared himself for it, he was not afraid that Kang Ruicheng might use some tricks.
He was more afraid of the possibility of Kang Ruicheng launching a full attack.
No matter how capable he and Mu Sijue were, they were too weak to compete with Kang Ruicheng’s whole force.
However, Mu Sijue did not allow Ah Guang to bring more bodyguards than usual, who had no choice but only to worry for his Seventh Brother.
As soon as they got out of the hotel, Ah Guang followed Mu Sijue closely, keeping an eye on everything around them.
His subordinate quickly drove their car over. Ah Guang got in almost immediately and opened the door as he said, “After you, Seventh Brother.”
As soon as Mu Sijue got seated in the back seat, Ah Guang immediately shut the door. With a bang, the door was tightly closed, followed by the sound of the door being locked.
He did it in a very skillful way without any hesitation.
Dongzi got in the car from the other side. As soon as he sat down, he asked, “Seventh Brother, where are we going?”
Mu Sijue didn’t hesitate much and said calmly, “We’ll stick to our plan and do our usuals.”
In other words, they would still be doing what they usually did.
In this way, it could prevent Kang Ruicheng from suspecting Xu Youning.
However, it also would also give Kang Ruicheng countless opportunities to attack Mu Sijue.
Ah Guang wasn’t sure about it and wanted to talk Mu Sijue out of it. “Seventh Brother, you…”
Mu Sijue raised his hand, indicating that Ah Guang didn’t need to say anything else.
He had already made up his mind and there was no way that Ah Guang could change it with just a few words.
Although Ah Guang felt unconvinced, he had to give in and handed the tablet to Mu Sijue so that he could take advantage of the time during the ride to deal with his business first.
The car moved at a steady pace. Except for Mu Sijue, everyone in the car was in a state of tension, but they still had to pretend as if nothing had happened.
Thirty minutes later, the car was stopped in front of a bar. Mu Sijue opened the door and got out. He followed the usual agenda and went in to discuss business with someone.
Ah Guang was getting more and more worried, but he could only act as usual and follow Mu Sijue into the bar as a loyal subordinate.
In the bar, Mu Sijue discussed his business as usual, while staying on guard against Kang Ruicheng.
Back in the private room, Song Jiqing was racking his brain to figure out what games to play.
In fact, playing games was not the key. He just wanted to mess with Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun.
“Although I’ve said that I’ll never make trouble for Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun deliberately ever again, with the guys around here now, I guess many of them would like to mess with the couple.
“I’ve got my allies, so I’m not afraid!
“Besides, I’ve been teased so badly before. If I don’t take revenge now, when will I get to do it again?”
Xiao Yunyun knew what Song Jiqing was thinking, but she had no fear. She held her chin with both hands and looked at him calmly as she urged him slowly, “Have you made up your mind?”
“Yes!” Song Jiqing snapped his fingers. “Let’s play a simple game!”
“Sounds cool.” Luo Xiaoxi hummed unconsciously. “The rules had better be simple.”
The gaming atmosphere was instantly destroyed. Song Xiaoqing made a stop gesture and pretended to glare at everyone. “Are we still playing it or not?”
“Yes!” Luo Xiaoxi immediately put on a straight face and pretended to be serious. She nodded and then emphasized, “Of course, we are!”
Lu Boyan and Su Yicheng had never been interested in games. They walked to the bar counter tacitly and sat on the high stools.
After a while, Xiao Guoshan also came over.
He poured himself a gla.s.s of wine, picked it up, and said, “Yunyun has been well taken care of by you since she came to City A. I need to thank you on her behalf.”
“Uncle Xiao, there’s no need for the courtesy.” Su Yicheng smiled, and there was a little helplessness in his smile. He said, “Yunyun… is quite perky, but she also brought us a lot of laughter. She called me cousin, so it’s natural for me to take care of her.”
Xiao Guoshan took a sip of wine and looked at Xiao Yunyun, who was sitting on the sofa, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
At this moment, Xiao Yunyun could still keep smiling and bring laughter to others.
But what would happen after today?
If Yuechuan lost consciousness all of a sudden, she would need to take care of everything of him as his wife.
Because of the change in her ident.i.ty, everything she did for him would only be natural.
Of course, that was not what Xiao Guoshan was worrying over.
What he was really worried about was that after Xiao Yunyun gave herself to Shen Yuechuan, she would still be let down by him.
“If that happens, will my daughter still smile like the way she does now?”
Lu Boyan noticed Xiao Guoshan’s worry. He gently swirled the wine gla.s.s in his hand and said slowly, “Uncle Xiao, I believe that Yunyun is ready to face every possibility. I hope that you can also believe in her.”
Xiao Guoshan smiled with infinite fatherly love in his eyes.
He nodded. “I’ve always believed in Yunyun.”
Lu Boyan did not say anything more and looked over to the sofa.
Xiao Yunyun was having a good time with Su Jian’an and the others. At this moment, there was no trace of sadness on her face.
However, Lu Boyan didn’t know how long she could keep being happy like this.
He didn’t dwell on it, because Xiao Yunyun was not the only one he needed to worry about.
After a while, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Mu Sijue with only a simple sentence.
“How are you doing now?”
Mu Sijue’s reply came very soon. Before long, Lu Boyan’s mobile phone buzzed slightly. He unlocked the screen and saw Mu Sijue’s reply.
“Everything is going fine.”
Lu Boyan put back his phone while a trace of doubt flashed across his mind.
The wedding ceremony between Yuechuan and Yunyun had ended. So far, Kang Ruicheng hadn’t made a move yet.
In other words, he didn’t want to ruin the wedding but just wanted to target Mu Sijue.
Although Yuechuan and Yunyun were safe, relatively speaking, Mu Sijue would be more likely to be in danger.
While Lu Boyan was thinking about that, Su Yicheng suddenly asked, “What happened to Mu Qi?”
Lu Boyan did not expect that Su Yicheng would suddenly get straight to the point. He was slightly stunned and did not respond for a moment.
He was surprised that Su Yicheng would actually know something was wrong with Mu Sijue.
“Don’t get me wrong.” Su Yicheng pointed to Lu Boyan’s mobile phone. “I just accidentally saw your conversation with Mu Qi.” After a pause, he continued, “It seems that he left in a hurry just now for some particular reason?”
Lu Boyan thought about it and decided to tell Su Yicheng about what happened. In the end, he told him that Mu Sijue left in a hurry because he didn’t want to bring trouble to them.
Su Yicheng was quite shocked. After all, Mu Sijue had appeared very calm for the entire day.
He didn’t expect that there would be a danger behind the calmness.
However, he soon came back to his senses. He glanced at Su Jian’an and asked, “Does Jian’an know about this?”
“It’s better not to let her know,” Lu Boyan said, “I don’t want her to worry about us.”
Su Yicheng nodded in understanding. “Don’t worry, I won’t tell her. But… are you sure Mu Qi can deal with it by himself?”
Lu Boyan pondered for a moment, and there was only calmness and determination in his voice. “Since he has decided to deal with it alone, then I’m sure that he’ll get it done.”
Su Yicheng was still worried. He frowned slightly and said, “What if…”
“There is no ‘what if’.” Lu Boyan interrupted Su Yicheng, and his voice became particularly cold and harsh. “There are still many things that he has yet to achieve. No matter what, he can’t have anything bad happen to him at this time.”
Su Yicheng knew that Lu Boyan cared about Mu Sijue more than him. Lu Boyan’s tone suddenly changed because he was worried about Mu Sijue.
He sighed secretly.
He did not know when all of these troubles would end.
Only after all this could Xu Youning return to their side. Otherwise, Mu Sijue’s life would always be missing someone important, which could never be complete.
However, Mu Sijue had said that everything was fine at the moment.
They didn’t need to worry yet.
On the sofa, the game was over.
In fact, Song Jiqing and Luo Xiaoxi hadn’t enjoyed it enough, but they had to take Shen Yuechuan’s health into consideration.
Besides, today was the wedding day of Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun.
No matter how fine the groom appeared, they couldn’t go too far by taking up too much time from the newly wedded couple.
If Yuechuan couldn’t take it and fell down, things would get serious.
Luo Xiaoxi seemed to be still immersed in the game. She clapped and then stood up with her hands on her waist. “Well, we’ll let go of Yuechuan and Yunyun for the time being, but we will have it twice as much in the future!”
Song Jiqing stretched and said, “Hear, hear!”
Xiao Yunyun was also concerned about Shen Yuechuan’s health, but she still pretended to be relaxed. She tilted her head and said, “Since you guys have said so, we won’t hold back either. But now we’ll go back first. See you next time!”
Song Jiqing waved his hand. “See you.”
Shen Yuechuan took Xiao Yunyun to say goodbye to everyone and then left the hotel.
Uncle Qian was smoking in the car. He picked up the phone and heard that Yuechuan and Yunyun were ready to leave. He quickly nipped the cigarette and opened the window to get some fresh air into the car. Less than half a minute later, he saw Yuechuan and Yunyun coming out of the hotel.
He almost got out of the car at once and asked as soon as Shen Yuechuan approached, “Yuechuan, how do you feel? Are you all right?”
“I’m fine.” Shen Yuechuan smiled and tried to present his best. “Uncle Qian, you don’t need to worry about me.”
“Great then.” Uncle Qian patted Shen Yuechuan’s shoulder as if he were facing an old friend. “Shall I send you back to your apartment?”
“Yes.” Shen Yuechuan nodded. “Sorry to trouble you.”
“What’s the courtesy for?” Uncle Qian opened the door and said, “Come get in.”
The hotel was not far from Shen Yuechuan’s apartment. In less than 15 minutes, Uncle Qian had taken the couple to the apartment building.
Xiao Yunyun pushed the car door open and ran to the driver’s seat. She smiled at Uncle Qian in the car and said, “Uncle Qian, thank you for what you did today. Yuechuan and I will go upstairs now. See you.”
“Okay, see you.” Uncle Qian smiled, then lowered his voice and said, “Yunyun, take good care of Yuechuan.”
