Chapter 255: An Accidental Meeting
Mu Chen and Cheng Che grew up together and helped each other emotionally. Cheng Che eased Mu Chen’s loneliness while Mu Chen gave Cheng Che a sense of belonging and security; the two brothers helped each other tremendously.
When the two brothers’ left Jiang Jin’s ward, the smiles on their faces vanished immediately.
Cheng Che said in a soft but solemn tone, “Brother Chen, Chen Chen is making a move on Ye Xin’s management company…”
Mu Chen paused in his steps slightly before he continued walking. “Are you interested in taking over the company?”
Cheng Che replied with a smile, “You know me. I’m interested in everything…”
Mu Chen also smiled as he responded, “Do whatever you want. You can do it under your name. There’s no need to involve the Mu Group. The management company should be solely yours…”
“Alright, Brother. I have to work hard now to save money for my child!” Cheng Che said happily.
Mu Chen who had already reached the elevator turned to look at Cheng Che in shock. “Huh? You and Jiahui…”
Cheng Che hurriedly shook his head. “No, no, no. You misunderstand me! You’re thinking too much!”
When the elevator doors slid open, Mu Chen strode into the elevator. He turned back to look at Cheng Che as he said, “I don’t think you’d dare to act presumptuously anyway. Her father would mobilize the entire city to hunt you down if you ever do such a thing!”
Meanwhile, Cheng Che’s expression changed immediately.
Upon seeing the change in Cheng Che’s expression, Mu Chen turned back to look into the elevator, and his smile vanished immediately.
Gao Wen and Ye Xin were standing in the elevator.
Gao Wen, whose hands were resting on Ye Xin’s wheelchair, retreated instinctively into a corner of the elevator as soon as she saw Mu Chen. A stiff and forced smile appeared on her face as she said, “Mu… President Mu…”
On the other hand, Ye Xin called out ecstatically, “Mu Chen!”
Ye Xin was rather unhappy when her mother pulled her wheelchair back. She pushed her mother’s hands away, wanting to wheel herself closer to Mu Chen.
Mu Chen and Cheng Che took a step back in unison, clearly hesitant about riding in the same elevator with the pair of mother and daughter.
Mu Chen hesitated for a moment, but it was too late to get off the elevator. Therefore, he stepped forward into the elevator.
Cheng Che, naturally, followed in Mu Chen’s footsteps.
Following that, another two visitors stepped into the elevator as well.
Ye Xin had already wheeled herself next to Mu Chen before she said with barely concealed happiness, “Mu Chen, Mu Chen, I finally get to see you!”
Cheng Che tactfully inserted himself between Mu Chen and Ye Xin before he looked at Gao Wen meaningfully as he said to Ye Xin, “Miss Ye, you’ve woken up.”
Gao Wen’s eyes widened, and she hastily said, “Xinxin just regained consciousness two days ago. President Mu, President Cheng, Xinxin still hasn’t fully recovered… She…” She trailed off awkwardly.
Mu Chen and Cheng Che remained silent.
Upon seeing this, Ye Xin looked at Mu Chen tearfully and asked, “Mu Chen, can we talk?”
Mu Chen did not respond to Ye Xin.
Instead, Cheng Che calmly said, “Miss Ye, if you want to speak to Mu Chen, you can just ask your lawyer to speak to Mu Chen’s lawyer…”
Ye Xin’s expression changed immediately. “Lawyers? Why?”
Mu Chen did not spare a glance at Ye Xin at all.
On the other hand, Cheng Che looked at Gao Wen in surprise. Based on Ye Xin’s reaction, could it be that the Ye family had not told Ye Xin anything?
Gao Wen hurriedly said, “Ye Xin, you’re…”
Ding!
The elevator came to a stop.
Mu Chen strode out of the elevator wordlessly while Cheng Che nodded perfunctorily at Gao Wen before he strode out of the elevator as well, not intending to say more.
Upon seeing this, Ye Xin pushed her mother away again as she wheeled herself to chase after Mu Chen. She called out shrilly, “Mu Chen, stop right there!”
Her shrill voice resounded loudly in the hospital. Everyone fell silent, attracted by Ye Xin’s voice, and they turned to look at her curiously.
Mu Chen stopped in his tracks and turned around. His expression was incredibly icy at this moment.
Meanwhile, Cheng Che almost ran into Mu Chen due to Mu Chen’s abrupt turn. He quickly stepped aside before he said in a low voice, “Brother, let’s go. There are too many people here…”
