Second was silent for seconds before answering nervously, "Big Master, I"m sorry. This has not been found."

Murong Ye had always been very strict to them, and they were always efficient in carrying his orders. However, this time, they were indeed slack in their work and were not as efficient as they used to be. No wonder they would feel guilty.

"You didn"t find it! Did I feed you as a bunch of c.r.a.p!" Sure enough, Murong Ye scolded them to their face.

"The other party did it very carefully and did not leave any trace there. We haven"t gotten any clue yet, so..."

"Check everyone who is present today. I"ll give three days to do it."

"Ok!"

Although Second knew how difficult and troublesome their mission would be, he still took the job as he was clear that their Big Master"s order could not be changed and they had no place to bargain with him.

Out of the door, Second called Little Five. "Little Five, this time, you and Little Three must help me, otherwise, I will be over. Big Master only gives me three days... "

Gong Yu waited for Yun Muxi all night in the hospital, staring at his cell phone. However, Yun Muxi neither came back to see Niannian nor called him. He became anxious, and when he thought of Yun Muxi getting on Lu Yang"s car and leaving him alone, he was even more enraged.

Gong Yu paced around inside the ward distractedly, and finally, he could not help but call Murong Ye.

When the phone rang and no one answered, he put his phone on the table and then called him again after hesitating for a while. It was not until the mobile phone was about to stop ringing that Murong Ye answered his call. "h.e.l.lo, Murong Ye, I called to ask if Xiao Xi has returned to you or not."

"She is here." Murong Ye answered coldly, and his eyes were closely fixed on the sleeping Yun Muxi.

"Oh, well! That"s good. She didn"t come to see Niannian today..."

"She has been ill!" Murong Ye said coldly before Gong Yu could finish his words.

"What? How is she now? Is it serious? Where is your home? I"ll come to see her." Gong Yu was worried like a jumping monkey, and he could suppress his worries.

"No, she is sleeping now. If you want to come, you can come to see her tomorrow."

"Oh! I"ll be in the hospital to accompany Niannian tonight and go to see her tomorrow morning."

Having hung up the phone, Gong Yu sat restlessly and couldn"t sleep. His mind was full of the thoughts that Yun Muxi was ill. "Is it serious? When she left, she was still fine. How could she suddenly fall ill...?"

His mind was full of Yun Muxi, and he lay on the bed in anxiety. Finally, it was dawn.

When Murong Qingtian arrived, Gong Yu couldn"t wait to say h.e.l.lo to him before leaving.

Murong Ye opened the door and saw Gong Yu with an anxious look. He was slightly shocked. "It seems that you care about my sister very much."

"Why did she suddenly fall ill? She was fine when she finished her work yesterday!"

"She was plotted by someone, who threw cold water to her and smashed her head. She pa.s.sed out and was locked in the bathroom and caught cold."

"What? How could this happen?"

"Someone has been sent to look into it."

"What about that guy—Lu Yang?"

"Lu Yang?"

"Yes, yesterday, he took Xiao Xi to attend a birthday party. He should be responsible for her."

"Oh, I almost forget Lu Yang, who also likes Xiao Xi! You really have a lot of rivals in love, so, you have to work harder."

"Uh ..." Gong Yu didn"t expect that Murong Ye would suddenly change the topic to this matter, and he had a complex feeling at the moment.

"Hey, don"t lose your heart! As long as Xiao Xi likes you, we will support you! Sometimes, Xiao Xi is too stubborn and we don"t know how she grows up like this."

Gong Yu looked up at Murong Ye. At the moment, Murong Ye"s eyes were not cold or harsh but filled with the love a brother had for his sister.

"Well, get in and take a look at her. I don"t think she"s awake now. She had a fever last night and just brought down it this morning."

Hearing that, Gong Yu followed Murong Ye and got into Yun Muxi"s room. Yun Muxi lay quietly on the bed, and Cui Pengrui just gave her a treatment of infusion this morning.

Gong Yu walked to her bed all the way. He sat down beside the bed, stretched out his hand, and covered Yun Muxi"s forehead. Fortunately, just as what Murong Ye said, the fever was brought down.

Gong Yu"s fingers slipped to Yun Muxi"s cheeks, where the white skin was pale without any trace of blood. Her pink lips were also slightly pale at the moment. Gong Yu was heartbroken and did not want to move his fingers away from her cheeks.

Murong Ye quietly got out of the room and closed the door.

Gong Yu bowed his head and kissed Yun Muxi"s lips. Her lips, which used to be warm, were cold at the moment. Gong Yu was afraid of waking up Yun Muxi and just left a gentle kiss on her lips before moving his lips away. He held Yun Muxi"s hand and looked at her firmly. He didn"t know how long it was before Yun Muxi"s eyes slightly moved. Gong Yu looked at her nervously.

Yun Muxi slowly opened her eyes only to see Gong Yu"s worried face draw near to her. She frowned and asked, "You... "

Yun Muxi"s throat was a little sore, her voice was hoa.r.s.e, and she couldn"t speak any word.

Gong Yu hurriedly picked up a cup from the bedside table and sent it to Yun Muxi"s mouth. "Drink some water to moisten your throat."

Yun Muxi nodded and was about to get up when there was a burst of dizziness in her head. She hurriedly reached out her hands to cover her head.

"What"s wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable?" Gong Yu asked nervously.

"My head is a little dizzy." Yun Muxi whispered in a hoa.r.s.e voice.

"Don"t move then."

After saying that, Gong Yu had a mouthful of water and touched Yun Muxi"s lips with his. He opened Yun Muxi"s mouth with the tip of his tongue swiftly and sent the water into her mouth.

Yun Muxi was slightly stunned and swallowed the water with a dull look. The warm water flew down her throat and moistened it as well as her heart.

Gong Yu took another mouthful of water again and sent it into her mouth in the same way.

Yun Muxi swallowed the water. "Emm, let me do it by myself."

Gong Yu lightly pressed down Yun Muxi, who was about to get up, and was very happy to feed her with water mouth to mouth.

After Yun Muxi drank up the water, Gong Yu put the cup on the cabinet and wiped the corner of Yun Muxi"s lips lightly with his finger. "Is there anything wrong with your body?"

Yun Muxi shook her head with a dull look.

"Can you tell me what happened yesterday?"

Yun Muxi recalled it for a moment and said lightly, "Yesterday, I went to the bathroom and when I tried to open the door, I suddenly found the door was locked. I thought the lock on the door was broken and knocked on the door, hoping there would be someone helping me open the door. However, the person outside the door not only didn"t help me open the door but also poured a basin of water on me and threw the basin into the room. It happened to hit my head and I went faint."

"So you didn"t see who did it and don"t know who it is?"

Yun Muxi lightly nodded.

"Did you meet any suspicious person last night? Or have you offended anyone?"

Yun Muxi thought for a moment. "Last night when I went in the house with Lu Yang, I greeted with Lu Yang"s younger brother, Lu Ze, and later I saw Xuanxuan and Murong Xu here. Later, Sister Yilin also saw me. After that, we were together all the time and there was no one else."

Gong Yu listened with frowning his brows, and he couldn"t understand it. According to what Yun Muxi had explained, it was peaceful all the night. Then who it would be? The point was that Murong Ye, who was with great background, now hadn"t found the person. That meant it was not a simple case.

Yun Muxi looked at Gong Yu and asked, "How did I get back?"

"Your brother found you and brought you back."

"Oh!"

When Yun Muxi heard that it was Murong Ye who brought her back, she felt even warmer than before, and a warm smile unconsciously appeared on her face. However, this smile deeply hurt Gong Yu. From when was his Xiao Xi no longer in his protection? She could still be well protected and loved without him. Was it that he was not so much important to her?

With this idea, Gong Yu asked unconsciously, "Am I no longer important to you now?"

Yun Muxi was puzzled by the mindless question from Gong Yu. "What do you mean?"

Gong Yu shook his head lightly with loss and sadness.

Yun Muxi felt a slight pain in her heart when seeing that. She reached out her hands and covered Gong Yu"s cheeks unconsciously.

The moment her cold hands touched Gong Yu, it seemed to burn him. He stretched out his hand and covered the back of Yun Muxi"s hands. He looked at Yun Muxi firmly.

He even couldn"t help bowing his head and kissing Yun Muxi"s lips. After two gentle kisses, Yun Muxi began to cough up. Gong Yu got a fright and quickly stretched out his hands to pat Yun Muxi"s back. After Yun Muxi finally stopped coughing, Gong Yu hurriedly got up and poured a gla.s.s of water and fed Yun Muxi.

After drinking up the water, there were a few drops of residual water on the corner of Yun Muxi"s mouth. Gong Yu reached out his fingers to help her wipe them off gently. His heart trembled slightly when his fingers touched Yun Muxi"s lips.

"Xiao Xi, your lips are really beautiful and make people want to kiss them non-stop when looking at them. Do you have magic?"

Gong Yu"s love words were very touching. Yun Muxi immediately felt a little shy and turned away from looking at Gong Yu"s eyes.

Yun Muxi was so lovely like this, which made Gong Yu want to play tricks on her.

His fingers lightly fondled Yun Muxi"s lips, and Yun Muxi"s heart jumped with each of his casual touches. Her heart was in a mess.

Gong Yu was happy to see Yun Muxi"s face blushed and her avoid his eyes. He loved this kind of Yun Muxi very much.

Yun Muxi pretended to be cool and tried to keep calm, but she found that she was unable to control her feeling. Her cheeks became more blushed, and even her ears also turned red.

Gong Yu chuckled and kissed her lips again...

At this moment, the door was suddenly opened!

Cui Pengrui coughed awkwardly. Gong Yu raised his head and looked back at the disturber with a face full of unpleasure.

Cui Pengrui saw the displeasure in Gong Yu"s eyes, and he was full of embarra.s.sment. He smiled calmly and pretended to be indifferent. "Well, shall I come back later?"

Having said that, he turned to leave but suddenly thought of something, and he turned back to said, "Well, I have to remind you that she is suffering from pneumonia now, and you should be careful not to be infected. So ... "
