Chapter 5 - Rise Again (“Just this one night. I will be okay sleeping right here.”) (3)

In the book, it was also said that the Mu’s had been extremely powerful ever since the 80s. The problem was that Mu ZhenYu did not get along with his father, Mu ShiAn, and his younger brother, Mu XiYuan, at all. 

When Mu ZhenYu was just 21 years old, he expanded boldly in a brand-new area. HuanYu, the company formed by him from the ground up, focused primarily on computer vision and deep learning, which was an area of artificial intelligence. It had made tremendous progress in the areas such pupil recognition, intelligent technology, etc., and even dominated in the area of crime prediction.

The original owner was too short sighted. She hadn’t thought it through. A man that was able to build up his own empire from the ground up without his family’s help would be able to restore his business once again in the future. 

That’s why the original owner had ended up losing her life. 

After a long white, Mu ZhenYu finally said, “Don’t worry. I have set up a trust with you being the beneficiary. You will receive the entire amount when the six months are up.”

Hearing that, WanWan’s mouth dropped wide open…

You meant to say that all the plotting that the original owner had done was for nothing? All she had to do was to wait for the six months to be up, then all the money would be hers?

Meaning… Mu ZhenYu knew all along the shady business between she and Mu XiYuan. He merely never acted upon it as a way to test the original owner’s loyalty. 

That was such a big joke.

The next morning, WanWan woke up lazily and felt much better all over.

She stretched and sat up before noticing that she was lying in Mu ZhenYu’s bed with his blanket over her body. She paused for a few seconds, got up, put her slippers on, and walked to the living room. She found Mu ZhenYu sitting there comfortably and sipping his coffee while reading a financial magazine. 

His hair was brushed back impeccably. He looked composed and prudent, nothing like one whose company had just gone bankrupt. The man who ran over last night before in an effort to catch his woman in bed with another man seemed to be a completely different person.

Just a day ago, he acted like he wanted to skin and debone her. 

WanWan bit her lip and asked, “Yesterday… you were the one who carried me into bed?”

Mu ZhenYu didn’t even bother looking up, “Who else could it be?”

WanWan raised her brows slightly and said, “Thank you.”

Perhaps, this man wasn’t as bad as she made him out to be. 

His phone suddenly rang in silence. 

Mu ZhenYu put down the magazine in his hand and picked up his phone with his long, slender fingers, “Grandma.”

Over the phone, there came the elderly person’s anxious voice, “Your little brother is sick. Sort of odd too. We took him to the hospital, and they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with him. Can you send over your personal doctor to come over to the house and take a look?”

Mu ZhenYu muttered a response, and his sight had landed on Xu WanZhi subconsciously. 

Foxes have great hearing and sense of smell. WanWan heard every single word from his grandmother. 

“He had passed out in the hotel last night and was carried to the hospital by a few people. They had administered some IV and gave him some medication along with some examinations. He has woken now, but he kept saying that he felt low on energy and very lethargic. He was fine yesterday when he left for a drink with someone. What happened during the drink?”

Mu ZhenYu mumbled a response and hung up the phone. Then locking eyes with Xu WanZhi, he asked, “You did that?”
