hurt at all.Fu Lingxiao's icy gaze quickly swept over several sniper points. Suddenly, a black figure stood up from behind the earthen embankment, raising his lips in a smile at him, but gritting his...Shen Luan held Mu Xing in his arms, standing by the street waiting for a taxi. The softness filled him completely, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Little Star must be made of tofu!

It looks thin and small, and soft when you hug it.

It's no wonder that Master Fu liked to hold her so much.

Thinking of their Master Fu, Shen Lue's heart jumped involuntarily. This was Master Fu's exclusive joy. If Master Fu knew he had also experienced it, he would probably be in danger!

"Little Star," Shen Yue lowered his head to look at Mu Xing, his handsome face slightly serious. "This matter of me holding you tonight, you must keep it a secret, absolutely can't let Master Fu know."

Mu Xing was worried that Shen Lue would tell Fu Lingxiao about what happened tonight. She really didn't want her little uncle to waste his energy on these trivial matters.

On hearing this, her heart skipped a beat. She raised her eyes and said, "Okay, then you also shouldn't tell my little uncle about what happened tonight."

"Alright, deal."

To save his life, Shen Yue readily agreed.

Rules are made to be broken, people live. Besides, this wasn't the first time he had kept things from Old Master Fu, and those who needed to be taught a lesson already had been.

A taxi arrived soon.

Shen Lue hugged Mu Xing onto the car, placed her on the seat, and told the driver to go to He Chao Hospital.

"We're not going home" Mu Xing asked, confused. "Why are we going to Dr. He's place"

"Let's get you checked out, just in case."

Although Mu Xing seems fine at the moment, he won't truly feel at ease until he has checked everything carefully.

Mu Xing didn't object. She hadn't seen Brother Acheng in a long time, so she might as well go take a look.

Reached the hospital.

Shen Yue carried Mu Xing straight to He Chao's office. He Chao had already changed his clothes and was preparing to leave work. Seeing Mu Xing being carried in, a trace of worry instantly appeared on his handsome face.

"What's wrong with Miss Mu Xing"

Mu Xing held back the urge to call him "Brother Achao." Her big eyes, like little deer, sparkled as she looked at him, "Dr. He, I'm fine. I was just injected with an anesthetic."

"It's said to be an anesthetic, but that can't be confirmed."

Shen Yue put Mu Xing on the examination bed and took out a syringe from his pocket. "There's still liquid residue inside, please ask Dr. He to take it for testing."

"Good."

He Chao called his assistant to bring over blood-drawing tools and drew a tube of blood from Mu Xing. He handed the tube with the needle to the assistant, saying, "Take it for testing, make it quick!"

Okay, I'll send it over right away!

The assistant dashed out quickly.

He turned to Shen Lue, "I need to perform some checks on Miss Mu Xing. Would you please step aside"

Shen Lue glanced at Mu Xing, then hugged He Chao's shoulders and whispered, "You know how temperamental Fu Ye is, try to do the kind of checks that don't require taking off your clothes, okay"

He Chao: "..."

"Here you go."

Shen Yue patted He Chao on the shoulder and walked out of the office.

As soon as the door closed, Mu Xing rushed towards He Chaoyang with a sweet smile, "Brother Chaoyang!"

Finally got the chance to be alone with Brother A-Zhao! It feels so awkward pretending to be strangers!

"Mm." He Chao responded with a smile, his tone a little urgent as he asked, "Where do I inject it"

Mu Xing replied, “Left calf.”

He gently lifted Mu Xing's left leg, located the injection site, and carefully examined it. Afterward, he measured Mu Xing's pulse rate and a few other vital signs.

Everything was normal, and the tension in his heart eased slightly. He asked, “Do you feel any pain anywhere now”

Mu Xingyang raised his lips and smiled: "It's just full body paralysis, no strength, nothing else is abnormal. Brother Achao, don't worry."

He Chao nodded and pulled a chair to sit in front of Mu Xing, "What happened How did you get injected with an anesthetic"

The pair of eyes behind the tinted lenses were full of concern.

Mu Xingyang's lips curled into a light smile. "It's nothing, I was just accidentally ambushed, but Brother Shen Lue has already avenged me."

"Silly girl, this isn't a trivial matter. What if that wasn't an anesthetic but some kind of virus The consequences would be unimaginable."

He Chao's voice was grave, and his expression was unusually serious.

Mu Xing could feel how worried he was, and immediately put away that indifferent expression. She said solemnly, "I understand, Brother Chao. I will definitely be careful, extra careful in the future!"

"Mmm."

He Chao's expression softened, and his whole person looked warm and jade-like.

He gently stroked Mu Xing's hair and asked softly, "Have you ever seen or heard your Uncle Mu mention someone named Lu Yuan when you were little"

"Lu Yuan"

Mu Xing bit her lip, recalling carefully before slowly shaking her head, "No, I've never heard of this name. Who is he"

He Chaocheng spoke in a low voice: "According to my father, he was Uncle Mu's biggest competitor in the business world back then. Later, in a life-or-death business battle, he lost to Uncle Mu, and it was a crushing defeat, losing everything."

Mu Xing's brows furrowed suddenly, "Does Brother Achao mean that the fire at my house was possibly his revenge out of spite"

"We can't rule that out."

Ge Chao's gaze was deep, his eyes flickering with a dark light, "It's a pity he left the imperial capital long ago and his whereabouts are unknown. However, I have hired people to look for him, and I believe there will be news soon."

"When we find him, can you take me to see him too"

Even if he wasn't the murderer, maybe he knew other clues She couldn't give up any possibility of finding the killer.

Ge Chaoben originally wanted to refuse. He wanted Mu Xing to live a carefree life without worries, shouldering those hatreds and responsibilities himself as her brother.

One could plainly see the anxious and pleading look on Mu Xing's face. He wanted to refuse, but the words caught in his throat. If he refused, she would be even more heartbroken. How could he bear to see his most beloved sister sad

Nodded, "Okay."

Having received He Chao's approval, Mu Xing felt a little lighter. She cautiously said, "Brother Chao, there's something I want to tell you. Promise me you won't be angry, okay"

He Chao raised his hand, his long and clean fingers adjusted his glasses, "Okay, I guarantee it."

“Actually, I had a clue all along. It was Uncle Feng, who used to be the chef at my house. He saw the murderer, but he refused to tell me anything. To avoid me, he even went abroad. I never wanted to involve you in this, so I didn't tell you.”

Muse looked apologetically at He Chao. No matter what she wanted, in the end, Brother Achao was still dragged down by her.

He chuckled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "It's fine, telling me now is still in time. Give me that peak uncle's information and I'll hire someone to look for him."

"I've hired a private investigator, and I'll let you know the moment he finds Uncle Feng."

"Well then."

As the two were speaking, He Chao's phone suddenly rang. It was his assistant calling.

He quickly answered, “Are the test results out”ned, his fingertips gently rubbing her chin, "Like you were downstairs, hugging my legs."Mu Xing recalled the scene at the time. Didn't she just hug her little uncle and act coquettishlyIsn't that eno...
