Chapter 718 Hidden Identity

Ziyue returned to the bedroom, worried.

Only a dim light was on in the bedroom. She walked to the bed softly and saw Muchen's sleeping face with the faint glow from the light.

The man's usually cold and calm demeanor had dispersed when he was sleeping soundly. He was as defenseless as a child.

Ziyue reached out and traced the outline of his face. She kissed his lips before she climbed into bed to sleep.

…

Early the following morning.

When Ziyue woke up, the space beside her was empty.

When she sat up and looked at the time, she realized it was already nine o'clock.

When she suddenly thought of Muchen's current situation, she couldn't sit still. She got out of bed, put on a coat at random, and rushed downstairs.

The lounge was empty. No one was there.

She stood in the lounge momentarily before walking out.

She saw Muchen walk over with Beef from far away. Zixi was on his other side.

The father and son stayed silent as they walked over.

She walked to them. "You walked the dog so early in the morning?"

"Mm. I saw it was making a fuss, so I took it for a walk." Muchen looked up with a trace of warmth in his eyes.

"Mommy!"

Zixi immediately ran to Ziyue when he saw her.

Ziyue held Zixi's hand and realized it was warm. She looked up at Muchen.

Muchen's gaze landed on Ziyue's thin coat and he said, "Let's go in."

Ziyue held Zixi's hand and walked in. She turned to glance at Muchen occasionally and was slightly more relieved when she realized nothing was wrong with his complexion.

After entering the lounge, Zixi started playing with Beef. Muchen helped Ziyue take off her coat. "Go wash up. Let me check if breakfast is cold yet. Zixi has eaten."

Ziyue looked at Muchen in surprise. "You woke up to make breakfast?"

Muchen smiled indifferently. "I haven't made breakfast in a while. It might not taste good."

After Ziyue washed up, she changed and went downstairs before sitting at the dining table. Muchen served her his reheated breakfast and sat across from her as he watched her eat.

Muchen had started cooking in his teens. His skills were still good even if he hadn't cooked in a few months.

Ziyue scarfed down her breakfast.

It was clear that this pleased Muchen.

Because his expression relaxed.

Ziyue smiled at him. "Your skills are as good as ever." Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

She realized Muchen wasn't very sullen when she interacted with him like this. No one could tell that he was ill.

Muchen seemed to sense her confusion, so he pointed at his head. "Even if I'm ill, it's not like I would die anytime."

Furthermore, he had gone through treatment.

What Shichu previously said was right.

When Bessalyn was treating him, he was pretending most of the time.

The only person he could trust wholeheartedly was Ziyue. He would have reservations about other people.

Ziyue nodded. Such an illness wouldn't flare up if Muchen wasn't agitated. He looked like any other person.

The two sat across from each other and had nothing to say. Muchen's cell phone rang and broke the silence.

He took out his cell phone and looked at the familiar number but didn't answer it immediately.

Ziyue noticed his hesitation and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why don't you answer?"

Upon hearing it, Muchen glanced at her and answered the call.

Ziyue didn't know who had called him. She couldn't guess who had called him from his unchanging expression, nor could she tell what was said on the phone.

Ziyue only had the opportunity to ask him after he hung up. "Who was it?"

Muchen's expression dimmed. "Chuan."

"Chuan?" Ziyue suddenly got up.

Muchen had previously said she didn't need to worry about Chuan's matters, but there was no news

about Chuan.

Ziyue was surprised when she heard that Chuan had called Muchen.

She asked Muchen, "Have you found him?"

Muchen got up and said to her, "Let's go."

"Where are we going?"

"To meet with someone."

Ziyue didn't ask further when she heard the coldness in Muchen's voice.

…

They left Zixi at home and left the villa together.

They were just going to Lumiere Jade House.

Ziyue could guess who Muchen was meeting.

The two went up in an elevator. Muchen knocked at the door of a presidential suite.

At the next moment, the door opened, and Zheng's figure appeared at the door.

Ziyue wasn't surprised that Zheng was there because she had realized that Muchen was meeting

Yuchuan.

Qin Yuchuan, the person in charge of the Mogwin family, the Earl of Augsburg, Muchen's grandfather…

These were crucial identities of his.

However, he might have other hidden identities.

For example, the leader of Gricy, Lagos.

Yuchuan sat on the couch in a well-ironed suit.

When he saw the two people walk in, his gaze instantly turned sharp.

"You're here."

His voice was arrogant and extremely bossy.

Muchen held Ziyue's hand as they sat down. When she raised her head, she saw Yuchuan sitting across from them.

A handkerchief was stuffed into his coat pocket, making his outfit seem refined. He was genuinely an old aristocrat.

Muchen leaned back slightly, and he crossed his long legs. His expression was serene.

"Where's Chuan?"

"Can't you be bothered to greet me after not seeing me for a long time?" It was as though Yuchuan didn't see Ziyue. He didn't even look at her out of the corner of his eye.

These two were constantly arguing when they met. They didn't seem like family, more like foes.

With how things had developed, they might really become enemies.

However, Muchen's attitude wasn't what she had expected.

Ziyue looked down and didn't think about it further.

Muchen was silent, and Yuchuan miraculously didn't beat around the bush. He said, "I've released Chuan. He should be meeting his sister now."

After he said it, Muchen pulled Ziyue along as they stood up and walked out.

Zheng wanted to stop Muchen. "Master Muchen, you…"

"Let him go." Yuchuan's dignified voice rang, and Zheng backed away. He did nothing else.

As the two left the room, Ziyue received a call from Ke.

"Mrs. Qin, my brother is back!"

Ziyue wasn't at the office, but Ke was there.

Ziyue said, "We'll come at once."

Ziyue and Muchen went to the office. They saw the Nan siblings at the entrance.

Chuan had lost weight, but he looked well. It looked like Yuchuan hadn't made things difficult for Chuan.
