Yuan Xuan sat on the sofa and looked at Liu Hui in anger. The was a dangerous aura in his cold dark eyes! The cold aura made him seem as though he was a completely different person compared to when he was comforting the woman upstairs.

Liu Hui felt as though he had sold his life for money while doing this job. One needed to be really courageous to serve the Third Young Master.

Since Butler Fu was sick, Liu Hui became the acting butler for a few days. Moreover, Liu Hui had always been in charge of the Yuan Family Mansion’s security. So how the surveillance camera was broken on the day that something happened to Mu Chenyan.

“Where did the Eldest Young Master go?”

Yuan Xuan suddenly asked coldly.

Liu Hui was flustered, but he tried to remain calm and answered respectfully, “Eldest Young Master went out early in the morning yesterday. From what I heard from Peace Mansion, he went for a business trip!”

“Did he wander around Hibiscus Garden in the past two days?”

The oppressive aura from Yuan Xuan’s noble status caused his tone to have an overpowering force!

Liu Hui did not know why did the Third Young Master ask about this, but he knew in his heart that this was a tough question to answer.

If he were to say yes, the Third Young Master might go against the Eldest Young Master. If that happened, he will have a hard time with the Eldest Young Master.

If he were to say no, in reality, he did saw the Eldest Young Master coming to Hibiscus Garden at night when he was on duty. The Eldest Young Master even ordered him to inform the other helpers to not walk around casually…

Since a mere helper would not dare to question their Master, he dared not say much at that time. However, he did not think that the Third Young Master would call for him today to ask him about this.

Liu Hui was not sure why did the Third Young Master want to look at the surveillance videos all of a sudden. Even so, he knew that he was in a tight spot with two inevitable situations right in front of him.

He was so done for! He would get into trouble no matter what!

Liu Hui knew in his heart that he would soon be fired!

“Yuan Xuan…”

The woman’s voice was overly gentle and soft. If he was not sensitive to her voice, he would most probably miss it.

The three of them in the living room raised their heads at the same time and looked towards the source of the voice.

They saw the pale look on the woman’s face. She stood at the bottom of the stairs in her pajamas barefoot. Her extremely frail body looked as though she might faint anytime. Yuan Xuan quickly got out of the sofa.

Her pajamas was slightly loose and flowy, making her look like she would be blown away by the wind.

Yuan Xuan strode over to her quickly and put his hands around Mu Chenyan’s waist. Then, he scolded softly, “Why did you walk out of the room in such thin clothing?” “Don’t you know that you just recovered?”

His scolding caused her eyes to turn red. Mu Chenyan was like a child who was sleep-walking as she leaned her body against him. She puckered her lips and pleaded softly, “I’m scared, I want you to sleep with me…”

“What happened?” “You had a nightmare?”

Yuan Xuan saw the look on her face, it was as if she had just woken up from a bad dream!

Mu Chenyan nodded heavily.

“Be good, there’s a little more left to discuss here. Go back upstairs first and I’ll be right there, okay?”

Yuan Xuan turned around and stared at Liu Hui. Liu Hui secretly prayed in his heart that the Third Young Master would forget about the topic they were having.

“I don’t care, I want you to sleep with me now…”

Mu Chenyan acted like a spoiled child once again. She puckered her lips and started sniffling softly.

The woman’s teary eyes made her looked extremely adorable and Yuan Xuan’s heart melted in an instant.

Despite how fiercely Yuan Xuan used to treat her, she still hoped to find comfort from him.

He surrendered, “Okay!” “Don’t be scared, I’ll sleep with you!”

He carried her without any hesitation and walked towards the bedroom.

Liu Hui stood still in the living room and looked towards Ah Fu. He suddenly let out a huge sigh as if he was saved and almost collapsed on the floor…

This was her first time dreaming about Shu Qinger in the past three years. She saw Shu Qinger smiling at her while raising a bloody fetus in her hand. Her ghostly voice echoed in her ears, “Mu Chenyan, look, this is Yuan Xuan’s child!” “Don’t you remember? You killed him with your own hands.”

Mu Chenyan was petrified. She lowered her head and saw both of her hands covered in fresh blood, “I didn’t kill anyone… I didn’t…”
