Chapter 123: Chapter 123; You think so?

Chapter 123: Chapter 123; You think so?

Zhou Yuxi held her hand and went over to the couch sitting down, “Li Meili, where did we put those bottles of water we had last night?” She had been meaning to inquire as she couldn’t recall much of what happened last evening after that episode.

Everything seemed to be vague in her memories.

She did have them in her trousers pockets when they were meeting up with those students, but now, she doesn’t think anyone apart from Mu Yunchen could have gotten any closer to her without fighting, even in her delirious moment.

“I left them with you, they are lost?” Li Meili was surprised that the bottles were lost before they could do research on them and find out what they contained.

How could they get lost from her trouser pockets with all the combat skills she had?

“Lost?

I don’t think so!

Uncle, where are my bottles of water?

I was with them last night!

I can still recall you know.” Zhou Yuxi was certain that he was the one who had taken them away from her and no one else.

“Stay away from that matter!

Don’t get involved!” He strongly warned her with seriousness.

He had seen the report he received, the bottles of water they had collected from the vendor machines later on were just fine and clear of any impurities, but the water bottles Zhou Yuxi and Li Meili had collected were full of drug content mixed up, they were left in the research laboratory testing and trying to find out what kind of drug was put inside and their effects.

This was such messy stuff he couldn’t allow her to get entangled with.

This web, wasn’t for her to jump in and get trapped.

Zhou Yuxi angrily punched the coffee table; she didn’t know why she had lost control of herself last night!

Now, the bottles of water were gone just like that.

Where was she going to find another sample to do a lab test?

She knew Mu Yunchen wouldn’t tell her the results of those bottles of water.

Those people who have been using that vendor machine at the playing ground since most of the people that played in that area were naive school girls and boys, now, these criminals would change their position because they knew someone knew what was happening with those vending machines.

Now, they would change their strategy.

“Uncle, how can you take them away like that?

You know I had some business with them.

This is stealing!

Stealing!” She pouted her lips, glaring at him while her eyes glistened with tears; he was truly her enemy.

She can’t even recall at what point she lost the bottles of water.

He must have kept them away probably when she had gone to sleep.

“How certain are you that I was the one who took your bottled water?

Mnnhh?

You know, I don’t think that you have to go to school, I have enough money to feed you for eternity, you can travel and shop at your own leisure either internationally or locally…

You won’t lack anything, don’t waste time reading books.” He nonchalantly spoke up brushing her off.

He would only have to find means to restrict her.

Last evening, she was attacked by some unknown mercenaries.

They interrogated them, but their lips were tightly sealed, and not even a single sentence came out of it.

It was either someone who had already targeted her and knew she knew about the drugged water, and they would try to eliminate her; only by staying beside him would she be safe.

She didn’t have to go out there and endanger herself.

Did he have money?

Yes, a lot of it.

She didn’t need to struggle to get anything, and she just had to exist.

He had even transferred some properties and money to an account he had created for her before moving abroad; he had made arrangements; it’s just that he hadn’t told her.

Zhou Yuxi heavily clenched her tiny hands, her lips pouted, while her eyes coldly glared at him but her face had this weird smile on, ‘going to school was the same as having the freedom to do her secret things, and for her to not go to school it was like losing her freedom and would be stuck with him 24/7.

She could only swallow that grievance.

This was her Uncle, she couldn’t fight with him all the time, right?

But did he have to block her way?

She needed to know if it was the drug she had also been addicted to in her previous life.

She felt like crying but her eyes were too cold and dry.

Looking at her lips that were opening and closing in a speechless manner, he knew what to exactly do and say.

Mu Yunchen now had better ways to control her, he wasn’t going to let her get entangled with the mess those bottles of water were entangled with.

She breathes in and out several times calming herself down before she goes rampant.

Li Meili sat there watching them bicker like an old couple, she knew they were more than just Uncle-Niece relationships, and then, they weren’t blood-related.

“Uncle, didn’t you say, once Li Meili gets over to the office, we can go shopping?

Should we go now?” Going shopping was like having some freedom and free time she could use to meet up with Li Si Ming and understand to what extent he has taken care of the matters she told him to.

She wanted to know how many shares so far he has collected.

Has he gotten the building for their business?

And how many workers did he have?

She also wanted to recommend to him some good lawyers from her previous life that they hadn’t picked up and would pick up later in the years.

“I did?

Maybe in the afternoon when I’m able to accompany you.

I just got here and have a pile of things to take care of.” He didn’t know why, but his instincts were telling him to let her stay put, and he wasn’t planning on letting her go out there on her own.

What if they attacked her?

No, no, no…

“Uncle….” She glared at him her eyes full of grievances.

Did this mean no matter what she did or where she went, he had to tag along?

What kind of life was this?

She couldn’t be able to do her things secretly if it comes to that!

Did this mean she had to come clean and tell him everything?

If she opened up with him about the things she was up to, of course, he would curfew her even more restrictive.

No..

no..

no…

She can’t do it.

“That’s being too clingy Uncle…” She was left speechless.

How can he behave like this?

And then she recalled the last night incident and understood him, she would have behaved the same way if it were him in that scenario.

Last night’s episode must have affected him greatly.

“You think so?” He eyed her like he was contemplating his decision, but he didn’t look like he was planning to retract those decisions at any time sooner.

“Third Master Mu, Doctor Mu has come over just like you requested, and then Jin Boyuan is at the reception lounge with Tang Yuze, the Tang family patriarch, and Li Si Yehan with his stepmother.” Mu Xue came over and notified him of the message he had gotten from the reception desk at the entrance door of the company.

They have just dropped by the office and probably, those people have been there for some time now waiting for them to come over to the company.

How certain were they that he would come over to the company?

What if Mu Yunchen went to do some project citations?

They can just ignore and pretend for the fact that he wasn’t in the company.

“I just arrived, can’t they come over another day?

I haven’t even taken a glass of water to wet my dry throat.” Third Master Mu’s angered voice sounded as everyone coiled back bowing their heads.

His eyebrows wrinkled up while his lips curved to the sides sneering.

He was patient only when it came to Zhou Yuxi; everyone else had to tread carefully.

Why was he being this cranky so early in the morning?
