Mu Yiqing's hand, which was about to comfort Mu Ning Jing, froze in the air for a long time. After a long time, his hand curled up and he slowly withdrew it. He said in a self-reproachful tone, "I'm sorry, Ningning. I'm sorry."
Mu Yiqing sat down opposite Mu Ning Jing. His face was full of self-reproach, and his eyes were filled with agony.
The two of them sat on the ground, one in a daze, the other blaming himself. They did not move for a long time.
It was not until the phone rang that the two of them came back to their senses.
Mu Yiqing took out his phone from his pocket. It was a call from his wife. He hesitated for a moment, but still picked it up. Before he could speak, a sharp female voice came through. "Mu Yiqing, you bastard. How long do you want to stay with that vixen?"
"Meiqi, you misunderstood …"
"If you don't come back, I'll inform the reporters and media to go to that vixen's place. I'll let everyone see what kind of filthy thing the just, honest, and noble mayor is."
Mu Yiqing's expression tensed up. "Meiqi, don't mess around."
"Have you thought about the consequences when you're fooling around outside?" After saying this, the phone hung up.
Mu Yiqing hurriedly got up from the ground and squatted in front of Mu Ning Jing. "Ningning, Uncle Mu has something urgent to do. I'll leave first. Don't think too much. I'll come to see you later."
Mu Ning Jing nodded blankly.
Mu Yiqing knew that he should not leave Mu Ning Jing alone at this time, but Yu Meiqi had always been reckless. If he angered her, she could really do anything. It was not easy for him to get to where he was today, and now it was a critical period for him to run for the Municipal Party Committee. He could not mess up at this time.
He could take his time with Mu Ning Jing. He was not in a hurry.
Thinking of this, Mu Yiqing patted Mu Ning Jing's shoulder and got up to leave.
…
Dong Zai got out of the car. The soldier immediately greeted him and said, "Brother Dong." Then he handed him a cigarette.
Dong Zai pushed the cigarette away and asked with a frown, "What happened?"
Seeing that Dong Zai did not take the cigarette, the soldier's heart pounded. He said with fear, "Miss Mu went to work as usual today. Our people saw her enter the company and went to have breakfast. Who knew that she would come out and go home not long after she entered the company …"
"Get to the point." Dong Zai looked impatient.
"Miss Yu hit Miss Mu and said that Miss Mu …" The soldier's voice became softer. "Seducing her father."
Dong Zai's face darkened. His first reaction was that it was over. Miss Mu had been beaten up. Would Young Master cripple him when he found out? Then, she thought of the soldier's last sentence and sneered, "Is there something wrong with Yu Anna's brain? With such a good boyfriend like Young Master, would Miss Mu need to seduce that old man Mu Yiqing? ..... to......
. "The soldier hurriedly shook his head. Whether it was appearance or wealth, Mu Yiqing and Shen Tingxi could not be compared at all. It was like the county magistrate and the crown prince. How could they compare? "Fortunately, Mu Yiqing arrived in time and stopped Miss Yu. We heard from the nearby residents that Mu Yiqing even slapped Yu Anna because of this."
Of course, the soldier did not dare to say that the residents said that Mu Ning Jing was shameless and seduced a married man.
Dong Zai was a little surprised. Yu Anna had been pestering Shen Tingxi, so he knew more about Yu Anna's family.
The Yu family had some reputation in Fan City, especially in the government. Yu Anna's grandfather reached the national level, but as he grew older, he retired.
Yu Anna's grandfather only had one daughter, and that was Yu Anna's mother, Yu Meiqi. Mu Yiqing married into the Yu family. With Yu Anna's grandfather paving the way, Mu Yiqing's career was smooth sailing. He rose from a commoner to the position of mayor.
However, it was said that Mu Yiqing was an honest official and had outstanding achievements. It seemed that he was preparing to be elected as the Municipal Party Secretary.
Mu Yiqing relied on the Yu family in the government, so he especially doted on Yu Anna, the child he had with Yu Meiqi. Now, in order to protect Mu Ning Jing, he slapped his beloved daughter. This was interesting.
Dong Zai suddenly remembered what the soldier reported to him yesterday. Mu Ning Jing and Mu Yiqing had a business deal. At night, the two of them had dinner at Mu Ning Jing's house. After that, they went for a walk downstairs. Along the way, Mu Yiqing seemed to have given Mu Ning Jing something.
Because Shen Tingxi told them not to let Mu Ning Jing know that they were following and protecting her, in case she was scared or let her imagination run wild, their men could not follow too close and did not dare to go upstairs. They only stayed in the shadows of the building.
They followed far away and could not see clearly at night, so they did not see what Mu Yiqing gave Mu Ning Jing.
Yesterday, Dong Zai felt that it was not a big deal. It was just a matter of work. But now … it was not so simple.
Mu Ning Jing was so quiet that she could be said to be a little autistic. He saw with his own eyes that the Young Master had given his heart to this woman, but he still could not get close to her. He did not believe that such a woman would have anything to do with Mu Yiqing.
However, just because Mu Ning Jing did not have other thoughts about Mu Ning Jing, it did not mean that Mu Yiqing did not have other thoughts about her. Now that Mu Yiqing's official career was smooth and it was getting better and better, his heart might start to become restless. It seemed that he had to report this to the Young Master.
However, how could he tell the Young Master that Mu Ning Jing was slapped?
Would he be beaten to death if he said it?
Hide it from him?
He did not dare to.
Dong Zai was frustrated. He lifted his leg and kicked the soldier. "Guard her well. If you make any mistakes again, be careful of your head."
This kick was not light. The soldier almost knelt on the ground. However, he immediately stood up and said respectfully, "Brother Dong, don't worry. This kind of thing will not happen again."
Dong Zai nodded and turned to get into the car. He did not start the car. Instead, he took out his phone and dialed Shen Tingxi's number. He told him about how Mu Ning Jing met Mu Yiqing because of the company's project, how Mu Ning Jing and Mu Yiqing had a meal together, how Yu Anna hit Mu Ning Jing today and how Mu Yiqing slapped Yu Anna in order to protect Mu Ning Jing. He told Shen Tingxi about all these things.
After Dong Zai finished speaking, Shen Tingxi did not say anything.
Dong Zai seemed to be able to feel the strong pressure on the other end of the phone. He did not even dare to breathe loudly. His palm that was holding the phone started to sweat.
After a long moment of silence, Shen Tingxi finally spoke. His voice was so cold that it sent chills down one's spine. "Keep a close eye on Mu Yiqing for me, and then investigate his scandals in the official circle."
Did the Young Master want to deal with Mu Yiqing?
However, Ninth Master had said that unless it was absolutely necessary, he could not directly go against the people in the official circle.
However, at this time, Dong Zai did not dare to persuade him. He did not take good care of the Young Master's woman and even dared to disobey his orders. Was he courting death?
"Yes, Young Master." Dong Zai wanted to ask Yu Anna how to deal with it, but the busy tone came from the other end.
