Previously, Han Muzi heard that the Yuchi Family had a reputable ranking in the world; what was more, the old man was still taking charge of all the family business.
Even when she was working as a designer, Han Muzi had some dealings with the Yuchi Family. Later on, she slowly rose to popularity after her colleagues noticed that the Yuchi Family were fans of her work.
In particular, people were saying that the Yuchi Family was—and still is—a very powerful entity with the old man still handling the family business.
Although the old man was a bit old, he was very tough and shrewd; anyone who wanted to harm or seize his property would be crippled by him.
At that time, Han Muzi felt puzzled. Hence, she asked him why he kept handling the affairs all by himself. Did he not have any children? Or did he not trust them at all?
Her colleagues told her that Mr. Yuchi had two daughters. However, it seemed like there was a conflict which caused the two sisters to leave the Yuchi Residence together, leaving the old man to guard his family business.
Sigh. Some people were born with a silver spoon in their mouth, yet they didn’t know how to appreciate their power and money; others were born poor and needed to work hard in order to survive. The minute they stopped, they would be left behind. In order to get back up, they had to rely on these big and powerful people for help.
Han Muzi sighed when she heard about the two daughters that had run away, not bothering about the family business.
Why did the two daughters not care about their elderly father and did not want anything to do with the family business?
At that time, she felt that this wasn’t something that would happen to her in the near future, however…
Apparently, Ye Moxuan had some sort of connection with the Yuchi Family.
Song An and Song Xin were Yuchi An and Yuchi Xin back then—it was both incredible and unbelievable at the same time.
Han Muzi bit her lower lip; she had nearly pinched and crushed the document she held in her hand. Sitting next to her, Han Qing did not say a word; instead, he watched the scene silently.
They were sitting in the car; Su Jiu opened her lips and had wanted to say something to Han Muzi, but the latter suddenly pushed open the car door and ran forward regardless.
The two were stunned. Just then, they saw a slender figure walking out from the gates of the tall building in front; a familiar handsome face, eyebrows, but a cold aura lingered. Isn’t that Ye Moxuan?
It turned out that Han Muzi had seen him before opening the car door. Han Qing and Su Jiu looked at each other and quickly got out of the car.
When Han Muzi saw Ye Moxuan’s figure, she got out of the car immediately and ran toward him, but she wasn’t as fast as Han Qing. She had almost reached Ye Moxuan when a hand suddenly grabbed her arm from behind and pulled her back.
“Ah!” Han Muzi exclaimed while struggling.
“Come back,” Han Qing said as he dragged her back. Han Muzi kept trying to pull her hand away while saying, “Let go of me, Han Qing. Let me go.”
Han Qing scrunched his eyebrows, not loosening his grip on her as he said coldly, “He doesn’t know you now, so it’d be useless for you to keep looking for him.”
“I don’t believe it! How long has it been? How could he not know me? Han Qing, please let me go. I want to ask him.”
Upon seeing that he wasn’t going to let her hand go, she bent down and bit his arm.
Han Qing probably didn’t expect that she would do such a thing so suddenly that he let go of her hand when he felt the pain. Then, Han Muzi ran toward the dazed Ye Moxuan.
She rushed in front of Ye Moxuan without giving a care. She stopped in Ye Moxuan’s path and panted as she stood still in front of him.
Ye Moxuan’s movements halted because she had suddenly stepped in front of him.
Seeing the woman with disheveled hair, pale face, reddened eyes, and pale lips, Ye Moxuan’s brows frowned.
Then, he remembered her as a woman who had been trying to strike up a conversation with him the past few days.
In the next second, he looked elsewhere and walked around Han Muzi.
Han Muzi was dumbfounded. She froze for a full five seconds before reacting; she then turned around to catch up and stopped in front of Ye Moxuan again.
Ye Moxuan raised his brows with a displeased look. “Anything?”
Upon hearing that, Han Muzi’s eyes widened in surprise.
He frowned, his eyes and face filled with impatience. Is it true? You don’t know yourself anymore?
No! She didn’t want to believe it.
Obviously, the confession he whispered in her ear before seemed like it was just yesterday. Everyday, she and Little Bean were waiting for him to come back; she had been dreaming of him every night where he would stay next to her and whisper in her dreams.
Why is he acting so cold now?
“Y-You don’t know me?” As Han Muzi asked him, she felt her voice trembling.
The question seemed to make Ye Moxuan feel somewhat amused; he lifted his lips and smiled somewhat mockingly.
“Miss, do I need to know you?”
After uttering those words, he subconsciously raised his hand and played with Han Muzi’s hair ends. Then, his light eyes fell on her pale lips as he casually said, “Even if you want to strike up a conversation, you have to find a decent reason. You look so furious whenever you come here. Are you trying to get my attention?”
Han Muzi was silent.
Upon hearing his words and seeing his expression, her face turned pale.
Noticing that his hand was still playing with her hair together with his careless and light-hearted appearance, Han Muzi felt a dull ache in her heart. Without much thought, she grabbed his hand and said, “Don’t cause anymore trouble and come back with me.”
Ye Moxuan, who was originally just playing with her hair, felt that this woman’s method of striking up a conversation was particularly strange; when other women wanted to strike up a conversation, they would usually want to show their most beautiful side.
However, she was different. She didn’t care if she was wearing casual clothes with no makeup on, or whether her face was bare with messy hair; there was nothing beautiful about her.
When she held Ye Moxuan’s hand up, he was stunned for a moment. He felt as if some sort of electricity passed through their hands, going directly into his heart.
He withdrew his hand abruptly and took a step back while looking at the woman in disgust.
When she saw the disgusted look in his eyes, she felt hurt.
“Why are you being like this?”
She choked; tears were already swimming in her eyes. She opened her eyes wide, trying to keep the tears from falling. If she blinked, those tears would roll down like pearls.
“All along, I have been waiting for you. Do you have any idea how long we’ve been looking for you? Come, we will return to China now.”
“Quick! Young Master Xuan has been entangled by a woman again—go and get rid of that woman.”
Not knowing who had shouted, Han Muzi’s hands were caught by two tall men in an instant. She panicked and looked at Ye Moxuan.
“Help me. Please, help me.”
The woman’s voice sounded like a tiny animal wailing, and her eyes looked at him desperately for help.
Looking at the scene before him, Ye Moxuan’s heart became a little weary for some reason.
