Chapter 294: Mr. Fu's Promise: To Protect Her With His

come any closer, I'll give you back the necklace, right now..."She rummaged through the makeup table haphazardly, knocking over bottles and jars as she went. She finally found the jewelry box containi...An Jiamu heard the door creaking open and thought it was a nurse. He casually turned his head to look, and saw that it was Mu Xing instead.

Surprise flashed across his eyes. He immediately put down the book and sat up straight, "Student Mu Xing, how did you get here"

Shen Lue waited at the door, Mu Xing went in alone, "Come and have a look."

An Jiamu smiled faintly, "I'm doing well. Dr. He takes good care of me. He told me yesterday that I can be discharged in another half month, but I need to use a crutch until I'm fully recovered."

"Perhaps it's best to stay until you've fully recovered before leaving the hospital," said Mu Xing.

An Jia Mu declined her kindness, "Thank you, Mu Xing, but I still want to leave the hospital early and investigate the clues of the murderer."

Mu Xing looked at An Jiamu, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Actually, I've already thought of a way. I can reveal my identity and lure the killer to kill me. This would be simpler than us investigating."

She thought long and hard, but ultimately felt that instead of searching for Lu Yuan and clues so laboriously, it was better to strike at the root of the problem.

"This is too risky, what if something goes wrong, you could be killed!"

An Jiamu did not agree with her idea, and his emotions seemed somewhat agitated.

Mu Xing only faintly replied: "I know, that's why I need you to fully recover to help me. During your recovery period, I will also try my best to persuade my uncle to agree to my plan. If you are fully recovered and he still hasn't agreed, we will act on our own."

An Jiamu gripped the edge of the bed with one hand, furrowed his brow in thought for a long time, before speaking again: "Your method is indeed simpler than us going to investigate, it's worth a try. However, there's one thing, I think I'm more suitable as the bait than you."

Mùxīng thought nothing of it and blurted out, "No!"

"Listen to my analysis."

An Jiamu said, “The killer knows your relationship with Mr. Fu and may not dare to act. Besides, Mr. Fu disagrees with your plan because he's worried about you. But if it were me, Mr. Fu wouldn't have any concerns. With his help, our chances of winning would be much greater.”

Most importantly, he didn't want the people he liked to take risks.

An Jiamu's analysis made a lot of sense, Mu Xing couldn't refute it, but she still couldn't easily agree. She was afraid that if she did, something terrible might happen. She had already killed Feng Shu, she couldn't harm An Jiamu again.

"Mu Xing, believe me, this is the best solution. I'll be able to move as soon as I'm out of the hospital."

The gruesome image of his father's death haunts him in his dreams every night. He is desperate to catch the killer.

Mu Xing still didn't agree, only saying: "Let me think about it. My uncle is waiting for me to go home, I have to leave first."

- A white Mercedes stopped and went on the road.

Shen Qiong sat in the passenger seat, her hands nervously twisting the safety belt. "Dr. He, just drop me off anywhere you like."

Ge Chao's posture was relaxed as she drove, her eyes fixed ahead. She smiled faintly and said, "It seems the little student hasn't learned their language well. They didn't even understand the meaning of the words 'sent home'."

"No..."

Shen Qiong glanced at the man beside her, then quickly withdrew her gaze. "That... my motorcycle is still on Cangyun North Road. I need to ride home..."

As soon as the words left her mouth, a phone was suddenly thrust into her hand. "You can't make calls while driving, could you dial a number for me"

Shen Qiong stared at her phone for a few seconds, wiping her clammy palms on her clothes, before taking the phone. "Who called"

"Call logs, disheartening."

He Chao's phone had no password. Shen Qiong opened the call log, found Yu Li's outgoing call, and put it on speakerphone.

Soon, the phone was answered by a lazy male voice: "What's up, Dr. He"

At that moment, the traffic light turned red. Shen Qiong saw He Chao stop his car and turn his head, saying, "Go to Cangyun North Road now and help me transport a motorcycle to No. 188, Shen Family Residence, Yiheyuan Mountain Villa."

He was clearly speaking into his phone, but behind the transparent lenses, his black and white eyes never left her.

With a faint smile, gentle to the point of being seductive.

Shen Qiong only felt that the unspeakable emotion in her heart suddenly blossomed like a vibrant flower in springtime, swaying gracefully in the wind.

She didn't know what the person on the phone had said, and she didn't know when the call ended. She just drifted along like that.

"Little one, you're here."

When the gentle reminder reached her ear, Shen Qiong suddenly woke up. The car had already stopped at her doorstep, and her motorcycle had been brought back and parked at the entrance.

She finally reacted, asking in surprise, "Doctor He, how did you know my home address"

He smiled and offered the medicine to Shen Qing, "Want to know I'll tell you next time we meet."

He wore a white T-shirt with a sky blue shirt on the outside, making his temperament more refined and clean. When he smiled faintly, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows overflowed with innate elegance and nobility.

Shen Qing looked at him, only feeling a slight dizziness.

This person is toxic, run away as fast as you can!

She took the medicine, opened the car door to escape, but was pulled back by the seat belt and pinned to the seat.

“......”

A low chuckle came from the man, and Shen Qiong awkwardly almost kicked out a mansion with her foot. She quickly unbuckled her seatbelt, threw out a "Goodbye," and jumped out of the car, running into the house without looking back.

He Chao smiled faintly: "It's really... the more I look, the more interesting it becomes."

- A helicopter landed on the estate's helipad.

Mu Xing got off the helicopter and ran quickly towards the villa. From afar, she saw a man standing at the door. The sunset had already faded, and his tall and straight figure stood in the twilight, deep and resolute.

"Little Uncle, I'm back."

Hearing the little girl's voice, Fu Lingxiao immediately shifted his gaze from the manor gate to her, and his footsteps followed suit.

Catching the little girl who was running towards him, he didn't hug her up as he used to, afraid she might still resist. He just held her and asked, "Why did you come back so late"

"After chatting with my classmates for a while, little uncle, I'm so hungry. Let's go eat."

Mu Xing wriggled out of his arms and took his hand into the house.

Shen Yue stood in the distance, silently watching their figures disappear completely. He turned and went to Villa No. 2, returning to his room to grab a notebook. He squatted on the roof and frantically typed on the keyboard....

After dinner, Fu Lingxiao brought Mu Xinggang back to the master bedroom when he suddenly received a call from Li Huiyi, needing to attend an online meeting.

After hanging up the phone, he lowered his head and rubbed Mu Xing's hair with his chin. "Baby, I have a meeting in my study, do you want to come with me"

He had never tried attending a meeting while holding this little thing.

Mu Xing didn't want to affect his work and shook her head in refusal: "I won't go, little uncle, you go quickly. I'll wait for you to come back."

"Well then."

Fu Lingxiao placed her on the sofa by the floor-to-ceiling window, kissed her forehead, and then turned to leave.

Shortly after the man left, Mu Xing received a message from Shen Yue, "Little Star, come to the tarmac."pecial communicator, and just as she was about to dial Tu Yan's number, a group of bodyguards suddenly burst in with guns drawn and opened fire on her...Fu Lingxiao held Mu Xing and left the medical b...
