The sound of running water in the bathroom stopped, and the man came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel. His muscular chest was mesmerizing, and crystal clear water droplets flowed down his V-shaped abs and dripped onto the plush carpet in the bedroom.
Yuan Xuan glanced at Mu Chenyan and smiled slightly. The beautiful curve of his lips was so devilishly charming that it made people unable to pull themselves away.
"Is Mistress still waiting for me?"
He said it in an extremely gentle voice. His voice was tingling, and it was completely different from the fierce and domineering man who ruled the world during the day.
When Mu Chenyan heard this, she was afraid that Yuan Xuan would ask for it again. She was so frightened that she quickly hid deep under the blanket.
"Mistress is already asleep." As she said this, Mu Chenyan purposely let out a snoring sound …
Major crimes department
Mu Chenyan returned to work. She had disappeared for more than a week without any reason without applying for leave. Mu Chenyan was actually very uneasy, but fortunately, everyone seemed to have forgiven her.
Everyone had a smile on their faces, and their eyes revealed their envy for her one-week leave.
As for them, they had been so busy with the Zong He case that their heads were about to explode, but they did not dare to leak anything in front of Mu Chenyan.
Mu Chenyan naturally did not think that way. She first went to report to Wu Huai, and then sat in the office listening to the talkative Zhang Xin ramble about how he had "missed" her for the past few days.
It was fine if Wu Huai did not mention it. Mu Chenyan thought to herself that he was doing this for Yuan Xuan's sake.
Indeed, power could make the world go round.
It was no wonder that Yuan Xuan had said that it did not matter if she was in this class or not. She was practically just a nobody!
This woman had great ambitions, but she was more or less disappointed that she did not receive other people's acknowledgment.
It was almost noon when Wu Huai called Mu Chenyan and Su Qingcheng to his office.
"Little Su, I have a task for you."
Wu Huai said as he passed a file in his hand to Su Qingcheng.
Su Qingcheng took it in puzzlement while Mu Chenyan sneaked a few glances at it from the side.
"Go to East Bridge City?"
Su Qingcheng looked at Wu Huai and asked after she was done reading the case file.
"Yes, we've received news from our secret sentries these past few days that a female leader of a child trafficking group has escaped from Luo Hai and has gone to East Bridge City."
"We're going to send someone over there to coordinate with our brother's department to capture this woman. There's not much progress in the case here, so we don't need so many people. You can go and support her. You can consider it as a public holiday! "
Mu Chenyan did not know why, but she felt that Wu Huai's gaze was a little awkward when he talked about traveling at public expense, even though he was such a righteous and honest person.
Mu Chenyan secretly pursed her lips and was amused.
"Miss Mu, why don't you go with Little Su?" Wu Huai thought about Yuan Xuan's words and quickly sent his wife away so that she would not delay him from solving the case.
Mu Chenyan was stunned, but she quickly realized that she had also been sent to the border.
Fortunately, East Bridge City was located along the coast, so it was a good place for a holiday. However, she had just started working this month. Other than catching a few thieves and perverts at the beginning, she actually spent the rest of her days on holiday?
It turned out that having the time to go on vacation was also a form of distress!
Mu Chenyan followed Su Qingcheng out of Wu Huai's office and sighed.
Su Qingcheng could see that Mu Chenyan was unhappy, so she asked in a low voice, "Is there something on your mind?"
Mu Chenyan looked at Su Qingcheng, and the thought in her mind was churning. "Qingcheng, East Bridge is very close to City C. After we're done with this case, can you accompany me to City C?"
NBC City, the city where Zhao Ruoxin had lived before!
Mu Chenyan returned to Hibiscus Garden and told Yuan Xuan that she was going on a business trip for a few days. When she was packing her things, the man's face was already extremely gloomy.
"Business trip?" Yuan Xuan suddenly had a feeling that he had been tricked.
This woman became more and more arrogant after he let her go to work. She even had to go on a business trip?
"I'm going to East Bridge to follow up on a case. I'll be back soon."
Mu Chenyan could not understand. Was it not just a business trip? Did this man have to put on such an expression?
After she finished explaining, she saw that Yuan Xuan's face was still gloomy. His shoulders were slumped as he leaned against the door of the cloakroom. From a psychological perspective, his actions showed that he was resisting.
Mu Chenyan made up her mind to ignore him. She packed a suitcase, bowed, and went to the bathroom alone while suppressing her laughter.
The night was warm, and the southern wind was slightly chilly.
Yuan Xuan ran to the corridor in the living room and gloomily smoked a cigarette. Between the twinkling stars, the bright moonlight spread over the gloomy and cold man's body.
He could not resist and dialed Wu Huai's number.
"Captain Wu, were you the one who sent Mu Chenyan on a business trip?"
There was no doubt that Yuan Xuan's questioning tone was full of dissatisfaction.
This attitude made Wu Huai very unhappy.
"Third Young Master Yuan, don't forget that you were the one who instructed me to hide the case from Miss Mu. Isn't it good for me to send her away now?"
Wu Huai was secretly pleased with himself. He could be considered to have won this round.
You've gone missing with Little Mistress for more than a week at the cusp of the storm. The entire team has been busy and exhausted before they managed to find some clues. Why can't I let you feel frustrated now? "
"Who's responsible for her safety?" Yuan Xuan remembered that East Bridge was not near Luo Hai. He was worried that this woman would travel alone.
This was especially true now that Mu Chenwu was becoming more and more arrogant.
"Su Qingcheng will go with her. Third Young Master Yuan should be relieved, right?"
"Her? Are you sure that woman can protect Mrs Yuan? "
It was not that Yuan Xuan did not trust Su Qingcheng's martial arts skills. After all, she was someone who had fought against Shao Yibai before. However, she was also a woman!
Wu Huai snickered. "I also want to send a man to accompany Mrs Yuan, but I'm afraid that Third Young Master Yuan won't be willing!"
Yuan Xuan snorted coldly. "Captain Wu, you've really thought of everything!"
"Thank you for the compliment, Third Young Master Yuan!" Wu Huai's smile was extremely sinister and malicious.
Yuan Xuan hung up the phone and looked upstairs with a gloomy gaze. He was still not completely at ease.
However, he knew that if he did not comply with this woman, she would probably give him a hard time again.
Yuan Xuan thought for a while and gave Shao Yibai another call.
"Your woman is going to bring Mu Chenyan out to have fun again. Did you know about this?"
Shao Yibai was silent for a while on the other end of the line. He said in a low voice, "I trust Su Qingcheng's combat skills. Mu Chenyan won't be at a disadvantage if she follows her. Don't worry!"
Shao Yibai thought that Yuan Xuan must have called him because he was worried about Mu Chenyan's safety when she went out on a trip.
Yuan Xuan smiled faintly. "You really know her well!"
"I was the one who taught her combat skills. How could I not understand them?"
As he spoke, Shao Yibai recalled the woman's appearance in the past and could not help but laugh.
Su Qingcheng was very young and inexperienced in the past. When she smiled, there were two small dimples at the corners of her mouth. She was sweet and moving.
In the blink of an eye, she had also grown up and looked like a mature woman.
Moreover, this woman had now learned how to be cold and indifferent. She had turned her back on him.
Shao Yibai thought about the few times he went to her house and was inexplicably annoyed.
Fortunately, Shao Yibai was a cultured person. Even if he was annoyed, he would maintain his dignity in front of Su Qingcheng and would not flare up.
When he heard Yuan Xuan say that Su Qingcheng was also going on a business trip today, Shao Yibai felt a little unhappy when he thought about this woman leaving Luo Hai.
