After hanging up the phone, Shen Yuting found it even harder to fall asleep.

The image of Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran being intimate emerged in her mind, their affection cut her to the core.

After a while, she dialed Qin Mu’s number.

Qin Mu answered faster than Wen Ran.

“Hello!”

From thousands of miles away, Qin Mu’s voice carried a hint of winter chill, seeping into her ears, it seemed to relieve some of Shen Yuting’s internal heat. She moistened her lips and calmly said, “Ah Mu, how’s the blind date going?”

“Seen a few, didn’t feel anything.”

Qin Mu’s answer was bland, there were other sounds in the background of the call, like gunshots, he must be watching TV.

“Don’t force yourself if you don’t feel anything. If you end up with someone you don’t like, it’ll hurt them.”

Shen Yuting’s teasing tone made Qin Mu laugh perfunctorily, “It’s so late, anything important?”

“Ah, nothing in particular, when are you coming back to G City?”

Shen Yuting nonchalantly fiddled with the corner of her quilt, leaning back against her bed head, “I want to go drinking but I can’t find anyone. Hurry back to G City and accompany me.”

“What about Ah Feng? You can find him, he enjoys drinking the most, and so does Ah Kai.”

Qin Mu had accompanied Shen Yuting for drinks a few times, usually when she felt down because of Mo Xiuchen.

Yesterday, Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran went for a hospital check-up. Despite the distance, Qin Mu knew about this, including the fact that Mo Xiuchen pretended to be sick for Wen Ran and they took pills together.

He also knew that Shen Yuting must be upset. Mo Xiuchen could disregard everything for Wen Ran, but he showed no affection for her.

She had silently loved him for so many years, willingly sacrificing for him, and it must still be hard for her to accept this.

“I refuse to drink with them, they talk too much. Ah Mu, if you can’t find a girl you like on a blind date, hurry back to G City. Our city is full of beautiful women, you’re sure to find one you like.”

There was no reply on the other side of the phone.

Her words stirred up Qin Mu’s thoughts.

There were indeed many beautiful women in G City, some of whom he liked. But for the very same reason, he couldn’t return, “I might not go back.”

When Qin Mu’s voice came again, it carried a hint of determination.

“Ah Mu, what do you mean by that, not coming back to G City? You’re not going to help Mo Xiuchen anymore?”

Surprised by what he said, Shen Yuting became even more certain that Sister Wang was right. Qin Mu must have fallen in love with Wen Ran, that’s why he didn’t want to return.

Qin Mu laughed, “Mo Xiuchen is now the head of the group, with Ah Feng and WenRan by his side. My mission is accomplished. I want to rest for a while. I plan to travel and relax after a few days.”

Perhaps, after the trip, he might be able to forget the person he shouldn’t be thinking about.

“Ah Mu, why are you leaving all of a sudden? Even though Mo Xiuchen has become the CEO, Mo Jingteng is not satisfied with him. Mo Zixuan is still in the company, and isn’t Xiao Wenqing hiding somewhere? Mo Xiuchen has to manage the company and worry about Xiao Wenqing hurting Wen Ran. Most importantly, there’s Fu Jingyi.”

Qin Mu didn’t speak, just clenching his phone tightly.

“We all worry that if Fu Jingyi finds out about Wen Ran, her situation can’t be kept a secret anymore. If she knew about her situation, we don’t know if she would choose to stay with Mo Xiuchen.”

There was clear concern in Shen Yuting’s voice when she spoke, as if she genuinely cared about Wen Ran’s well-being.

“Yuting, you’re overthinking. Nothing can break up Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran.”

Qin Mu’s words gave Shen Yuting a jolt of unease.

She felt slightly guilty and pursed her lips. Thankfully Qin Mu couldn’t see her expression, but she felt that he had seen through her intentions even without looking at her.

His words seemed to remind her not to hold any delusions – even if the truth comes out one day, Mo Xiuchen will not let go of Wen Ran’s hand.

Unless he dies!

As long as he’s alive, he will never leave Wen Ran.

The thought brought another wave of despair to her heart. She really didn’t have any chance, not a single one…

“That’s not what I mean. I mean, if you come back, there will be one more person by Mo Xiuchen’s side. When he can’t handle everything, you can help him protect Wen Ran. Didn’t you protect Wen Ran when he was away on a business trip last time?”

Shen Yuting’s words were diplomatic.

But Qin Mu, a man of meticulous thought and acute perception, was especially sensitive about matters concerning Wen Ran due to his hidden feelings.

The moment Shen Yuting’s words entered his ears, his pupils narrowed, and his lips formed a cold, determined line: “He can protect his own wife, I’m too lazy to interfere.”

Shen Yuting wanted to say something, but she was afraid of arousing Qin Mu’s suspicion, so she swallowed her words.

“I have another date tomorrow, I’m going to get some sleep, and you should rest too.”

Qin Mu didn’t want to continue the conversation and ended the call abruptly

Half an hour later, Shen Yuting was sitting in a bar.

The dim lighting fell on her face, revealing the moisture left by tears. The alcohol stung her throat and forced the tears out.

“Pretty lady, are you drinking alone? Want me to keep you company?”

A frivolous male voice sounded above her, Shen Yuting coldly told him to “get lost” before lifting her head and, using the dim light, saw a handsome man with a wicked charm. She blinked hard several times and stared at him again.

“What’s wrong, pretty lady?”

The man smirked, seeing she was gazing at him absentmindedly, he sat down in front of her, picked up a glass of liquor and graciously clinked it with hers, “Why not tell me your sob story, drinking alone can easily hurt your health.”

“You…”

Shen Yuting squinted at the man sitting in front of her, she was quite sure she wasn’t drunk, but was her vision playing tricks on her?

“Pretty lady, what are you trying to say?”

The man leaned in, his hot breath sprayed on her small face, causing her heart to shudder involuntarily and she instinctively moved to one side, “What about you?””

She didn’t know what to ask, this man, why did he look so familiar?

“Pretty lady, I’ll stay with you all night. Just take your time to speak.”
