At the cafe in the corner of the streets, there were people walking past, but the heater was on in the cafe, and some soothing music was played.
Compared to the harsh winter outside, the cafe was a suitable place for people to chill and relax.
When she saw Duanmu Zhe, Han Muzi’s frown that had been on her face for the entire morning finally eased up.
“Muzi, you are finally here.”
Once George saw her, he immediately pulled a chair and motioned for her to take a seat. Then, he took her bag and passed the menu to her.
Such actions from him made Duanmu Zhe narrow his eyes instinctively.
He had asked people to look into this, so he knew that George and Yuchi Shen hit it off like old friends by just their first encounter, so George treated Yuchi Shen like a good friend. Seeing that George was treating Han Muzi so well, could it be possible that Yuchi Shen and Han Muzi had already gotten together?
Indeed, even if he has lost his memories, his feelings and some matters wouldn’t disappear, huh?
Thinking of this, Duanmu Zhe raised his eyebrows.
Emotions were indeed quite terrifying. Someone who had amnesia could actually fall in love with someone he had been in love with before. His sister… had also become half-crazy because of love.
George’s enthusiasm made Han Muzi feel quite awkward. When she sat down, she couldn’t help saying, “Stop it, George. Sit down quickly.”
George smiled as he sat down opposite to her. “Sure, no problem!”
Yuchi Shen had asked him to take good care of Han Muzi.
Upon hearing that request, George was over the moon. He felt honored that Yuchi Shen trusted him so much.
Not long after sitting down, the waiter arrived. Han Muzi ordered a glass of juice casually before looking at Duanmu Zhe, who was sitting opposite to her.
At this moment, George suddenly returned to his senses and let out a slight exclamation.
“I heard Duanmu Zhe said that you guys have met again. Did I hear that correctly? You guys have met before this?”
Han Muzi nodded as she looked at Duanmu Zhe flatly.
“You didn’t hear anything wrong. We have indeed met not long ago.”
When George heard that, he immediately widened his eyes and stood up from his seat to glare at Duanmu Zhe. “What do you mean by this, Duanmu Zhe? Why did you meet Muzi in private? What do you want with her?”
Han Muzi was speechless upon hearing that.
Duanmu Zhe rolled his eyes and looked at George exasperatedly.
It was as if he was looking at an idiot.
Han Muzi merely shot a glance at George before confirming that he was indeed an idiot.
Seeing that Duanmu Zhe stayed silent, George charged at him and grabbed his collar like a gangster. “Say something! What do you want to do with Muzi? Don’t tell me that you are like your sister, who likes to break couples apart!”
Upon hearing him mention Duanmu Xue, Duanmu Zhe’s eyes turned colder. Apart from that, Han Muzi realized that when George was grabbing on his collar, Duanmu Zhe was still holding the cup of coffee. Yet, under such a vigorous attack by George, not a drop of the coffee was spilled.
On top of that, his actions were as graceful as before.
Duanmu Zhe merely rolled his eyes and uttered flatly, “Do you believe if I say that I will spill all my coffee on you if you don’t let go of me?”
George did not reply to him upon hearing that.
Instead, he gritted his teeth before replying, “Then tell me the reason why you met Muzi privately. Do you have the same hobby as your sister?”
Duanmu Zhe merely looked at George lazily. “Are you an idiot?”
“What did you say?” George retaliated furiously and anxiously.
“Have you seen someone who wants to sabotage someone’s relationship bring a third party into it?”
Perhaps because George was too dim, or perhaps Duanmu Zhe didn’t give a direct explanation, George didn’t react to that for a while. Sitting beside them, Han Muzi couldn’t bear this carry on any further and explained, “I met him to talk about his sister.”
George looked at Han Muzi and asked, “Muzi, you’re not lying to me?”
Han Muzi was speechless upon hearing that.
“I’m sure you definitely won’t lie to me, Muzi.” Only at this moment did George release his hold on Duanmu Zhe’s collar and snorted coldly. “I thought that people from the Duanmu family liked to sabotage others’ relationships. Hmph!”
Duanmu Zhe smoothed his collar that had been ruffled by George. Upon hearing his comment, Duanmu Zhe became much colder as he glared at George in annoyance.
“If you don’t know how to speak, just shut your mouth. No one would think that you’re a mute.”
George snorted coldly. “What, now? You dare to do it, but you don’t dare to let others know about it? I wonder what kind of family the Duanmus are to produce such a Young Lady!”
Duanmu Zhe spat, “What kind of Young Lady the Duanmu family produces is our business and none of yours, isn’t it?”
After all, his own sister was being insulted by others. Of course Duanmu Zhe couldn’t let that slide.
George wanted to say something else, but Han Muzi raised her hand to stop him. George could only look at her and communicate through his eyes.
Han Muzi smiled slightly and looked at Duanmu Zhe, who was sitting opposite to her.
“I apologize on his behalf. You are right—the type of Young Lady produced by the Duanmu family is none of our business indeed. But may I know the reason you approached me today? Is it because of your sister again?”
Duanmu Zhe had already straightened his collar. He put down the cup of coffee in his hand and looked at Han Muzi.
“Do you think that I have another reason for coming here?”
“Since you are here because of your sister, let’s cut to the chase. What do you guys want?”
Since she had already said everything so explicitly, Duanmu Zhe didn’t try to hide anything anymore. Instead, he said directly, “My sister has done something wrong, and I will discipline her and stop her. But.. I need your cooperation.”
George asked blatantly, “What do you want us to do?”
Duanmu Zhe pursed his lips and looked at Han Muzi seriously.
“If possible, I hope both of you can get married soon.”
Both Han Muzi and George did not know how to reply upon hearing this.
George widened his eyes and thought that he had heard wrongly.
Is Duanmu Zhe asking Yuchi and Muzi to get married soon?
Han Muzi was shocked upon hearing that, but she soon realized what was going on, and she couldn’t help smiling. “Mr. Duanmu, I get what you mean now. You want me to get married with him soon so that your sister will give up on him. Am I right?”
Duanmu Zhe did not reply to her, but his expression and his eyes had admitted it.
“In that case, you might have thought too highly of me. Although he has feelings toward me, he has lost his memories after all. If you want him to marry me right now, he won’t be the only one who would disagree to that. Even I myself wouldn’t agree to that.”
Hearing that, Duanmu Zhe frowned and looked at Han Muzi with a puzzled expression.
“You have never loved someone, have you?” Han Muzi looked at him. “He is the first man I’ve ever loved. I don’t want to force him to do anything after he has lost his memory,” she stated calmly.
George asked, “Why, Muzi? When Yuchi hadn’t lost his memories, weren’t you guys about to get married? Why don’t you want to carry on with that anymore after he has amnesia?”
