Chapter 749: Chapter 749 Something Started Going Wrong 7
"..."
There was no sound anymore, only the whooshing of the cold wind as the sky darkened and the chill settled in. That sound was truly cold, and even though she was dressed in a thick down jacket, she still felt the icy coldness seeping into her bones.
The new daughter-in-law of the Ou Family was the murderer who had harmed the second son’s family!
Ye Ning’s hand, gripping the handle of the wheelchair, finally turned pale...
——
When Ou Mucen returned, it was already dark.
As soon as he got home, being the current authority of the Ou Family and the pillar of the household, the butler and Bai Tingfang were both waiting for him, planning to go to dinner in the Bamboo Garden as soon as he arrived.
Ou Mucen saw that even his mother was waiting for him, so he didn’t think too much about it. After tossing the car keys to a servant, he headed to the Bamboo Garden with them.
"Where’s Ningning?"
"Oh, she went out with me at noon and got tired when we returned. She’s been sleeping ever since and hasn’t woken up yet."
Bai Tingfang, not realizing that her son already knew of the afternoon outing with his wife, gave this explanation when he inquired.
As soon as her words fell, the person walking beside her stopped in his tracks!
"She didn’t go to the Bamboo Garden?"
"No," Bai Tingfang also stopped, looking perplexedly at her son.
What was with his strong reaction? She’s just sleeping; is it necessary to drag her out of bed just to have dinner here?
Bai Tingfang didn’t think she had done anything wrong!
However, her irrational son, upon hearing that his wife hadn’t gone to the Bamboo Garden but was sleeping in their own Orchid Garden, turned around and left without any hesitation.
Angered, Bai Tingfang stomped her foot: "Ou Mucen, you little bastard, where are you going? Not having dinner?"
Ou Mucen briskly answered, "Not eating!"
He didn’t even want to see the group in the Bamboo Garden; whether it was the Bai Family or that deceitful old man. He had only planned to go because he thought that girl would be there.
Walking back in the night, he didn’t pay attention to Bai Tingfang calling out behind him in frustration; he quickly made his way toward Orchid Garden.
Upon arriving at Orchid Garden, he saw a faint orange glow in the bedroom on the third floor of the small villa, and indistinct sounds of movement in the hall below, which was Sister Wang tending to her.
So, he pushed the door and entered, not even bothering to change his shoes, he strode into the villa.
"Third Young Master, you’re back?"
Indeed, the figure who was cleaning the living room was Sister Wang. Seeing him return so suddenly, she was quite surprised.
Ou Mucen, without saying anything else, placed the laptop he brought back by the vestibule, and went to the shoe cabinet to change into slippers.
"Where’s the Young Madam?"
"She’s... upstairs!" Sister Wang, watching the unexpected return of the male master, suddenly glanced upstairs.
Ou Mucen, while changing shoes, caught her glance out of the corner of his eye and narrowed his eyes, then looked up towards the upstairs...
The villa in Orchid Garden was actually in a classic European style, with a staircase against the wall, spiraling upwards. From down here looking up, you could clearly see any movement above.
Ou Mucen saw the orangish light upstairs, the same light he had seen from outside earlier.
