On the day Shen Ye returned to Chicago, Yin Manqing refused to see him off on the pretext of being busy.
She was afraid of the scene of separation, especially the separation from Shen Ye. She was worried that if she was not careful, she would reveal all her thoughts. Since Shen Ye was unwilling to tell her the truth from beginning to end, then he had his own difficulties and plans. .
Yin Manqing neither forced him nor complained. At this time, no matter what Shen Ye did, how could she be willing to blame him...
Yan Lixiang received an overseas call from Yin Manqing, saying that she was preparing to come to the United States. Once the visa was obtained, she would meet her in Los Angeles.
Knowing that Yin Manqing finally had the courage to take back what was hers, Yan Lixiang was happy for her. This was the first time she had good news since she was brought to the United States by Mu Chengtian.
"Kate, can I go out alone? I have a friend coming to Los Angeles from China soon, and I want to prepare a small gift for her in advance."
She is not the host, but at least she has gained some understanding of the city of Los Angeles during these days in the United States.
Kate is the servant sent by Mu Chengtian to take care of Yan Lixiang. After the last time she had a blushing relationship with Mu Chengtian by accident, he suddenly treated her unexpectedly well, so much so that Yan Lixiang almost I'm wondering if he has another purpose?
He must have wanted to "win over" her and quickly unlock the password and transaction code of the arsenal. However, instead of asking her to decrypt it, he gave her a certain amount of freedom and was no longer as forced as before. She unlocked all the codes within the stipulated time.
Since it was useless to keep her in Los Angeles, Yan Lixiang proposed to return to China many times, but he dismissed Yan Lixiang's idea of returning to China on the grounds of "assisting" experts in cracking secrets.
Mu Chengtian kept saying that he asked her to help, but in fact, apart from unlocking the first password, she did nothing at all...
"Miss Lixiang, when the master went out today, he gave special instructions for you to stay at home and wait for him to come back." Kate stopped Yan Lixiang from going out.
"...Wait for him?" Yan Lixiang's expression suddenly changed.
"Yes, I told you to have a good rest. I seem to have heard that I will take you to a dinner party."
When she heard about the dinner party, Yan Lixiang was most afraid of such an occasion. No matter she was at the Yan family or with Qin Yuefeng, she would not attend any banquet.
"Did he...did he say when he would be back? It's still early now. I should have arrived home before he comes back. Kate, can you accompany me? You are more familiar with Los Angeles than me and know where to buy baby products. …”
"Miss Lixiang, do you... want to buy baby products..." Kate hesitated and her eyes widened involuntarily.
Hearing this, Yan Lixiang immediately understood Kate's misunderstanding and hurriedly explained, "I bought it for a friend."
Yan Lixiang looked guilty. In fact, it was no wonder that Kate had such a misunderstanding. Mu Chengtian's behavior towards her... They were as if they were a couple who had known each other for a long time. The intimacy between the lovers can be imagined.
Under Yan Lixiang's hard and soft tactics, Kate had no choice but to take her out together. The last time she went out, Mu Chengtian forced her to take her to the hospital for a check-up. Although she didn't appreciate it at all, Yan Lixiang always felt that she and Mu Chengtian The relationship between Chengtian is slowly fermenting.
At least, as long as he stops destroying the things Afeng left behind during his lifetime, she doesn't have much hatred or dissatisfaction with Mu Chengtian.
Yan Lixiang gradually began to adapt to the unfamiliarity with Los Angeles and the fear and fear of being alone in a foreign country.
Especially thinking about Yin Manqing's coming to the United States, she and Kate seemed to have a great time shopping together. They didn't go back until very late. When they returned to Mu Chengtian's gorgeous cage-like villa, he was staring at him with a terrifying light in his sharp eyes.
Xiang Yan Lixiang.
The moment Kate saw Mu Chengtian, she knelt down and apologized like a humble servant. She was afraid that Mu Chengtian would punish her, so she took the initiative to admit her mistake first, "I'm sorry, Master, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please
Forgive me once, and I will never dare to do it again."
Yan Lixiang was shocked by Kate's behavior, "Kate..."
Mu Chengtian was indeed angry, "Do you know where you went wrong?" His questioning tone was full of gloom and coldness.
"Yes, Master, I shouldn't have taken Miss Lixiang out privately, and I shouldn't have stayed out for such a long time..."
Kate takes all the blame on herself. She stays with Mu Chengtian for more than a day or two. She knows very well that Mu Chengtian's temperament is that he absolutely does not like to shirk responsibility. There is a glimmer of hope in taking the initiative to admit his mistakes.
"You bastard, get out of here right now." Mu Chengtian scolded angrily, his face filled with a heavy cloud.
Yan Lixiang was shocked by his voice and reacted, "Don't blame Kate, I begged her to take me out, I..."
She tried to explain, but unfortunately the more she explained, the more panicked Yan Lixiang became, worried that Kate would lose her job because of her, "If you want to punish me, then punish me. Please don't blame Kate."
"You still think I don't dare to punish you?"
In recent days, Yan Lixiang has been given too much freedom and privileges, so that she is becoming more and more lawless, so arrogant that she just plans to ignore him.
"I dare not think so, and I have never thought about it without knowing the truth." Yan Lixiang answered truthfully, lowering her head at this moment, like a child who had done something wrong, as if she was letting Mu Chengtian punish her.
Mu Chengtian approached and winked at Kate. Kate fled in a hurry as if she had received an amnesty order.
Yan Lixiang couldn't be said to be afraid, but she always had a creepy fear when she was alone with Mu Chengtian. The closer Mu Chengtian got, the closer Yan Lixiang could clearly smell the violent aura emanating from him, and couldn't help it
I shivered.
Mu Chengtian was also obviously aware of her fear. Is he so terrifying that he could easily scare her? Or was it that the woman in front of him was naturally timid and fearful?
If you say she is timid and fearful, she is definitely not such a person. As she swore to defend the things left by Qin Yuefeng to the death, it can be proved that Yan Lixiang is quite courageous.
Mu Chengtian's eyes fell on Yan Lixiang's handbag, and the words "baby products" came into view. Then, he frowned, his eyes shuttled between the high-end handbag and Yan Lixiang's face, and then he remembered that day
He did not take any safety measures when having intimate interactions.
Looking along Mu Chengtian's line of sight, his confused eyes immediately made Yan Lixiang understand something, "No...this is...bought for Sister Xiaoman. Sister Xiaoman...is waiting for the visa to be processed."
I will go to Chicago to meet Mr. Shen Ye."
Under Mu Chengtian's intense gaze, she should be able to explain clearly smoothly, but her hesitant voice seemed to be hiding something.
She added, "Everything I said is true."
She didn't have the guts to deceive Mu Chengtian.
"Shen Ye, is he the one who killed Qin Yuefeng?" Mu Chengtian did not pursue her hesitation in speaking and brought up Shen Ye.
He had already heard about Shen Ye. He was the most capable and capable subordinate under Lord Long, and was even his successor. Mu Chengtian and Shen Ye had no conflict with Lord Long, so naturally they were not interested in their affairs. Too interested.
As for Mr. Long's plan to help the police get rid of Qin Yuefeng, he had heard about it, but he was not angry, even though Qin Yuefeng was his biological brother.
But Yan Lixiang was afraid that there would be a misunderstanding between him, Shen Ye, and Yin Manqing, so she quickly said, "No, there is a misunderstanding. Although Mr. Shen Ye had to follow orders, he was helping A Feng from the beginning to the end. Ah Feng...he himself has embarked on a path of no return."
Even though Qin Yuefeng had been away for such a long time, Yan Lixiang felt as sad as if she had been hollowed out when she thought of him ending her life in an extreme way.
"Are you afraid that I'm going to settle the score with Shen Ye or Yin Manqing?" He asked back, with a hint of mockery.
"..." Yan Lixiang was afraid, so she acquiesced.
"Natural selection, survival of the fittest. He died because he was incompetent, no one else to blame." From Mu Chengtian's tone, it seemed that he had already seen through life and death, as if one day he was killed or arrested by others. If he is found guilty, he must be sentenced to death. That is because he is incompetent and deserves what he deserves.
Yan Lixiang saw this kind of meaning in Mu Chengtian's words. Suddenly, her heart felt like she had been hit by a heavy object, and pain oozed out unconsciously.
Neither he nor Afeng is doing legitimate business, living by legitimate means, so they must be mentally prepared in advance.
However, she objected to what Mu Chengtian said about Qin Yuefeng, "Afeng, he has his principles and his way of doing things. It doesn't matter whether he has the ability or not..."
"It's the person you love. Even if he is a worm, you will think he is a dragon. If his principles are correct and his way of doing things is okay, why is he the one who died today and not someone else!" Mu Chengtian compared Qin Yuefeng's "passivity" means that he pays more attention to how to find ways to solve problems.
Yan Lixiang was anxious and was speechless by Mu Chengtian's words. When she passed by Mu Chengtian, she was stopped by him boldly, "Change your clothes and follow me to the banquet."
"It's your business to attend the banquet, why do you want me to go? I won't go." Yan Lixiang's voice rose and her attitude was very tough.
Faced with Yan Lixiang's extremely angry temper, Mu Chengtian lost his anger and smiled, "If I insist on you going, can you refuse?"
Evilly, gently, he touched the base of Yan Lixiang's ear, then he put his arms around her waist and pressed her face very intimately. The slightly stinging breath fell on Yan Lixiang's soft face. She resisted. , but was forcefully locked into Mu Chengtian's arms. The baby supplies bag Yan Lixiang held in her hand slipped and the soft sound of falling to the ground disturbed Mu Chengtian's sight. She and Yan Lixiang kissed each other for a long time. Finally, he said slowly, "If you have it, tell me, I want to know."
