Chapter 721 Something Was in the Bottle of Water You Drank

She looked at Yunan and didn't move for a long time.

Yunan's expression didn't change. "I know where he is."

Ziyue pondered for a moment and followed him into his car. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Even if she knew who Muchen looked for yesterday and who he was with, she might not necessarily be able to locate him quickly.

In the car, Yunan asked her, "Do you want water?"

Ziyue fastened her seatbelt and looked at him. "It's fine. Thank you."

She didn't look very energetic, but Yunan said nothing else. He started driving.

…

The roads were slippery from the snow, so Yunan drove slowly.

After driving for more than two hours, the car stopped at the entrance of an old-fashioned house in a desolate area out of town.

Ziyue looked out the car window. She saw tall ceilings and a wild forest around them.

It had snowed the whole night yesterday and had just stopped. The ground was entirely white with snow.

Ziyue's heart constricted slightly. She turned to look at Yunan. "Is Muchen inside?"

"Mm," Yunan answered. He added, "I instructed people to follow him when he left yesterday."

He suddenly seemed to think of something and narrowed his eyes as he asked Ziyue, "Do you know who captured him?"

Ziyue's expression changed slightly, and she said, "I have a guess, but I don't know if I'm right. No matter who it is, it must be someone from Gricy."

"Have some water. We'll head in soon." Yunan passed her the bottle of water from before.

Ziyue took it and said, "Let me go in alone. You can come in if something happens."

After that, she opened the bottle of water and took a big gulp before she opened the car door and exited.

If the people inside were prepared, she would be stopped when she went in. Yunan was strong and could help her later on.

Yunan watched as she walked in through the doors. He took out a pager and instructed his subordinates, who were keeping watch around. "Be on your guard."

The house was silent.

There was thick snow in the courtyard. Thankfully, Ziyue had worn knee-high boots when she left, but walking was difficult.

She made her way through the courtyard and came to the lounge. The door was half closed.

She reached out, bit her lips, and pushed the doors decisively before she walked in.

Someone was gracefully eating breakfast in the lounge.

The person looked up at her and looked back down. He finished the last of his food and swallowed it before saying, "You're here early."

Although she was prepared for it, Ziyue couldn't suppress her surprise when she saw Yuchuan's familiar face.

He still looked solemn, and his dignified temperament was different from a regular person.

However, Ziyue still found it hard to believe that he was Lagos.

"You're courageous for coming alone. You must love Muchen a lot." He put down his cutlery, picked up a towel, and wiped his hands.

Ziyue was just about to speak when a man's voice rang.

"Who said she came alone?"

Ziyue turned and saw Yunan walking in.

She opened her mouth to speak but suddenly realized she couldn't say a word.

She looked at Yunan, perplexed.

Yunan approached her silently. He was honest when he saw her confused face, "Something was in the bottle of water you drank."

Ziyue's eyes immediately widened, and she exclaimed silently. What are you doing?!

Yunan didn't want to speak to her. He went straight to Yuchuan and sat before him. Yunan was calm and confident. "I've been looking forward to meeting you, Lagos."

"You must be kidding, Mr. Bai. How can I be Lagos?" Yuchuan didn't immediately admit that he was Lagos at such a stage.

Yunan's voice was casual, as if chatting. "At such a stage, what else can you do other than admit it? Do you think Muchen doesn't know that you're Lagos? There's a common saying in Country Z. The older you are, the more confused you get."

Yuchuan looked enraged at being insulted. "What nonsense are you saying?!"

He turned to look at Ziyue. "As Muchen's wife, are you teaming up with an outsider to insult me?! How outrageous!"

Even if Ziyue wanted to speak, she couldn't.

She didn't understand why Yunan drugged her so she couldn't talk, but he must have had his reasons.

She finally understood something at that moment.

Yunan and Muchen were equally matched.

Muchen must have realized that Yunan had instructed people to follow him. At the same time, Yunan knew early on that Muchen had disappeared.

She suspected that Muchen might very well be working with Yunan.

Such a conjecture seemed to be baseless, but she was highly convinced.

"Lu Shichu, Lin Enyang, Gu Hanyan… Oh, Enyang's sister, Lin Enxue, and Li Yannan, who was killed in prison earlier…"

Yunan listed a series of names. "I'm sure you're familiar with these people."

When Yunan mentioned Shichu, Ziyue immediately looked up at Yunan. Sure enough, what he had said yesterday was targeted at Shichu.

"Other than Hanyan, I don't know any of these people." Yuchuan's expression didn't change. It was incredibly natural.

The lounge was immediately silent.

"Really? I have good news for you since you don't know these people."

Yunan didn't seem to be hurried at all. He turned to look at Ziyue and smiled gently before saying to Yuchuan, "I'm sure you know about Ziyue and Muchen's divorce. Moreover, your loving and righteous grandson has transferred all his assets to her. I used to worry that my family would be prejudiced against her because she's been married. Now, I don't have to worry at all."

Ziyue's expression changed. What nonsense is Yunan saying?!

She walked over and pulled Yunan's shirt. What nonsense are you saying? Ask him where Muchen is. I want to see Muchen!

Regardless of whether Yuchuan was Lagos, she wanted to see Muchen safe.

She spoke to Yunan with her back facing Yuchuan, so she didn't notice that Yuchuan's expression turned nastier.

"Don't worry. We're just telling the truth. What's wrong with two people who are in love? Muchen was more than willing to give you his assets anyway."

Yunan seemed to be 'consoling' her gently.

Ziyue's expression turned cold. She wanted to speak but couldn't say a word.

Is Yunan working with Muchen? Why is he saying all these baffling things?

At that moment, Yuchuan roared, "Shameless!"

Yunan pulled Ziyue's wrist and indicated for her to stand behind him. He signaled her with a glance, telling her not to worry.

With the current situation, what else could she do besides trust Yunan?

At least Yunan was safer compared to Yuchuan.

When she turned to look at Yuchuan, she realized that he had a frightening expression.
