Shi Ye came out of the room, walked behind Mu Tingxiao, took a look over Mu Tingxiao’s line of sight, and then whispered to him: “Young Master.”
“Is there any smoke?” Mu Tingxiao retracted his gaze and looked back at him.
Although I don’t smoke too much at night, I always bring cigarettes.
He took a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, half smoked a cigarette from it, and handed it to Mu Tingxiao.
Mu Tingxiao took the cigarette out, held it to his lips, and took out the lighter every night, as if to light him a cigarette.
Mu Tingxiao frowned slightly, stretched out his hand and took the lighter over: “I’ll do it myself.”
With a “pop”, the lighter was ignited, igniting a cluster of flames.
Mu Tingxiao lit the cigarette by himself, and then returned the lighter to Shiye.
Shi Ye received the lighter and stood behind Mu Tingxiao, neither leaving nor speaking again.
Since moving to the villa next door to Li Jiuheng, Mu Tingxiao has basically been standing here in his spare time except for dealing with things, and he doesn’t know what he is thinking.
When I could feel it, Mu Tingxiao was thinking of Mu Nuannuan in his heart.
But he also felt that what Mu Tingxiao was thinking in his heart was not all Mu Nuannuan, but he could not figure out what else he was thinking.
“Do you think, when will Li Jiuheng start to act?”
Mu Tingxiao asked Shi Ye coldly, and Shi Ye was taken aback. After thinking about it carefully, he was uncertain and said, “Should it be the nearest?”
Mu Tingxiao took a deep breath of cigarette, took it off and clamped it between his fingers, and flicked the ashes off with his long fingers. His voice was loose: “What day is it?”
“What did the young master mean?” Shi Ye could still understand the thoughts in Mu Tingxiao’s heart on this kind of thing.
Mu Tingxiao would ask him this way, he must have his own thoughts in his heart.
When Shi Ye finished speaking, he bowed slightly and waited for Mu Tingxiao’s answer, but Mu Tingxiao fell silent.
It wasn’t until Mu Tingxiao finished smoking the cigarette that he said, “He will act by tomorrow at the latest.”
He had just smoked a cigarette, and his smoky throat was hoarse, which made him appear deeper.
Shi Ye’s thinking was active, and his mind was running fast, and he understood what Mu Tingxiao meant: “Master meant, Li Jiuheng will act as soon as possible tonight?”
“Isn’t that young lady…” After seeing Mu Tingxiao’s gloomy expression, Shi Ye didn’t say anything again.
If Li Jiuheng would make a move tonight, Mu Nuannuan’s situation would become unsafe.
Mu Tingxiao also didn’t refute Shiye, which means Shiye guessed right.
Mu Tingxiao tightened his fingers, grabbed the butt of the cigarette that he had just finished smoking into his palm and crushed it, and then began to give orders.
“Send someone to investigate a woman named Wanwan who is seriously ill and lives on a ventilator. She may be related to Li Jiuheng.”
Shi Ye was stunned for a moment: “Yes.”
“And…” Mu Tingxiao paused, but Shi Ye already knew what Mu Tingxiao was going to say.
Shi Ye said consciously: “I will send someone to follow Li Jiuheng’s movements at any time.”
Mu Tingxiao said again.
In recent days, Mu Tingxiao’s words have become extremely rare.
In the past, Mu Tingxiao hadn’t said many things, but he wouldn’t get an answer in eight out of ten sentences like now. He had to guess all of them to guess the meaning of Mu Tingxiao’s words.
Fortunately, all the questions that Mu Tingxiao ignores at the moment can guess the answer all the time.
Shi Ye received Mu Tingxiao’s order, turned around and left the room to start execution.
…
When Mu Nuannuan slept until midnight, she felt a noise outside the room.
After she came to Li Jiuheng, she slept very lightly and was very easy to be awakened. Especially if there is a little movement at night, it is easy to wake up.
A bedside lamp was turned on by the bed, and Mu Nuannuan opened her eyes for a moment, and her eyesight regained her clarity.
She turned her ears slightly to listen to the movement outside, but found that she couldn’t hear anything.
Could it be that she had auditory hallucinations just now?
It is not such a possibility.
Why don’t you go out and have a look?
With this in mind, Mu Nuannuan got out of bed lightly.
Mu Mu was still asleep, and Mu Nuannuan leaned over to close the quilt to Mu Mu, and tucked the quilt back again. Then he turned to put on his coat.
She paused slightly just as she was about to put on her coat.
What if there are people outside?
Mu Nuannuan hesitated, took off her coat, and put on all her clothes carefully.
He walked to the door and put on his shoes. After finishing the installation, he reached out and twisted the doorknob.
With a “creak”, the door was slowly opened.
Mu Nuannuan looked through the crack of the door and found that there was no one outside.
When she felt relieved, she opened the door a bit wider.
However, when she opened the door wider, she saw Li Jiuheng standing one meter away from the door!
Li Jiuheng stood there blankly in a black coat, his whole body exuded an aura of indifference, and his eyes were extremely gloomy.
A Luo stood behind him, and A Luo followed several bodyguards.
Li Jiuheng hooked his lips, looking calm and gloomy, and his voice was still gentle: “It seems that I didn’t even have to knock on the door.”
The voice was mild and wrong, but there was a bit of coldness in the mildness.
Mu Nuannuan probably understood in her heart that Li Jiuheng couldn’t help but act finally.
If there is no stimulation from Mu Tingxiao, he might still be sitting as steady as a mountain, without taking the initiative to take the initiative.
However, Mu Tingxiao’s series of behaviors over the past two days made Li Jiuheng become so calm.
He was irritated and no longer so confident. After his emotions were uncontrollable, he couldn’t help but want to take action.
Mu Nuannuan held the door with one hand and clenched her other hand involuntarily.
After living in Li Jiuheng’s villa for so long, Mu Nuannuan suddenly felt like “what should have come is finally here” at this moment.
She was so calm that she herself was a little surprised.
“Is there anything important, do you need to bring a human to come to me all night?” Mu Nuannuan looked at Li Jiuheng calmly, with a hint of surprise and trepidation in her tone.
Li Jiuheng’s eyes changed slightly: “You don’t know what I’m going to do, so you are not afraid of it?”
“When I colluded with you and asked you to hold me away, I knew there would be such a day.”
After all, she just woke up in the middle of the night, and Mu Nuannuan’s hair was still a bit messy. She reached out and hooked the hair that was hanging on her cheeks behind her ears, and seriously negotiated with Li Jiuheng: “If I go with you, you can let Mu Mu? She is just a child.”
Li Jiuheng smiled: “Of course I am willing to let her go.”
The more he was like this, the less Mu Nuannuan believed him.
Mu Nuannuan pursed her lips and said, “I want to go back to the room and get a scarf, can I?”
