Ziyue's expression turned ghastly.
Her body trembled. Moments later, she muttered, "But Muchen did not show any abnormal behaviors recently…"
In fact, that was not wholly true. Before this, she found Muchen's temper rather bizarre, but he had been behaving normally recently.
After hesitating for a while, Ziyue decided to tell Xiyi her observation.
Xiyi remained silent for a moment before saying, "Mr. Qin's willpower is extraordinary and can hardly be influenced. Given the current situation, his situation seems to be not as bad as we imagine. Humans are more advanced organisms and have different body structures from lab rats. According to your description, Mr. Qin is very likely controlling himself."
Finally, Ziyue was slightly relieved and was able to breathe normally. However, her heart remained weighed down.
Xiyi was a careful person – he would not hurry over from afar if it was not a serious matter. It had been confirmed that the K1LU73 virus antidote had side effects, but its impact on Muchen was unknown.
According to Ziyue's observation through their daily interaction, Muchen did not seem to be affected.
Nonetheless, the two stopped discussing that topic because Muchen was not around.
Following that, Xiyi went back to his laboratory. Muchen was very generous toward Xiyi and had invested billions in building him laboratories in both Country J and Country Z.
Since Muchen would stay in Country J for some time, Xiyi did not intend to leave so soon, so he went back to his laboratory.
…
At night, Muchen came back alone. When Ziyue saw that the Nan siblings were not with him, she asked, "Where's Chuan and Ke?"
"They have a business event to attend." Holding his blazers with one hand, Muchen answered naturally as he held Ziyue's hand and walked into the house.
Ziyue smiled. "You're good at ordering them about."
"They're glad to be ordered about by me." Muchen placed his hand on Ziyue's shoulder.
Ha! Fancy he said that.
Su Ziyue glared at him and remembered she had something to discuss with him.
"Doctor Mo came back."
"I know."
"How did you know? Did he call you?" I doubt he has the time unless he goes to Muchen's company. He won't bother to call Muchen once he enters the lab.
"I knew he came the moment he stepped into the house." Muchen did not conceal that the servants would report to him timely about Ziyue's situation.
"I see…" Ziyue was not displeased with Muchen's concern.
However, she was unaware that not only did Muchen know who she met but also what she ate every meal.
Ziyue recalled Xiyi mentioning that Muchen could be controlling himself, so she wondered if Muchen was aware of his situation.
However, she decided to leave the serious topic for Xiyi to talk to him.
After dinner, the couple sat in the yard and enjoyed the cool breeze. By the time Ke walked into the house, supporting Chuan's arm, Muchen and Ziyue were watching the TV in the living room.
Their daily routine was like that of an elderly person.
Ziyue was watching a Spanish-speaking variety show. Although she could understand the language, she mischievously requested Muchen translate it.
Muchen looked uncanny when he translated the humorous lines with a stone face, but it got Ziyue roaring with laughter. She laughed so hard that she fell on Muchen's body, but Muchen remained
solemn and did not bother to get her up.
Tears flowed out of Ziyue's eyes. Tugging at Muchen's arm, she poked his cheek and squealed, "Come on, don't keep a stone face. It's so funny!"
If Ziyue had never seen Muchen smile, she would think he had facial paralysis.
"What's so funny." Muchen pulled Ziyue's hand away from his cheek and helped her to sit up.
Just then, a few servants headed outside the house. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Ziyue turned to look toward the outside and heard Ke panting, "Oh my goodness, I'm dying… Quickly get this drunkard in."
Following that, the tall Chuan came into sight, supported by two servants.
Ziyue had never seen Chuan drunk before. He waved his finger in the air like a fool and gibbered, "How dare you hit on Ke. You jerk…"
Ziyue was amused seeing Chuan speaking in a fluent local language despite his foreign appearance.
She stood up and walked up to them. Ke tugged her hair behind her ears and started complaining to Ziyue. "It's not that I despise him. He can't hold his liquor, yet he wants to drink on my behalf. I'm a better drinker than him…"
Ziyue perceived the complaint as a compliment. Ziyue was the only child in her family, so she was envious of Ke for having a protective brother.
Nonetheless, family and lovers were different. Although she deemed Shichu as her elder brother, they had no blood relation, so their relationship could not compare with that of real siblings.
Glancing at Ke, who was babbling on, Ziyue said, "Doctor Mo is back."
"I know. Boss summoned him back." Ke blurted and continued complaining.
Ziyue added casually, "He arrived this morning and has come to visit. Then, he went back to the laboratory."
The moment she said that Ke dashed into the kitchen and yelled, "My dearest honey, Lan, please help me prepare a vegetarian supper immediately. The lighter, the better."
Lan Lan was a chef in the villa and was in her forties.
Her cooking skills were fantastic, so Ke enjoyed joking with her. Whenever she had a request, she would affectionately address Lan.
When Ziyue first heard the address, she spat out her food in shock. On the other hand, Muchen helped to clean the mess calmly as he was used to it.
Ziyue could tell from Ke's enthusiasm that she was indeed fond of Xiyi.
…
Ke did not come home that night after heading out to send Xiyi supper.
Ke is indeed an extraordinary woman to be able to settle Xiyi so quickly. Ziyue thought.
The following day, she was more affirmed of her guess when she saw Xiyi and Ke at the dining table because Xiyi looked tired. Obviously, he did not sleep well last night. On the other hand, Ke looked spirited.
