Chapter 220: Junzhi Mu's Will Has Betrayed You

while glancing nervously over her shoulder.As she reached out to knock on the door, she realized it wasn't closed. She pushed it open and peered inside. The sky was darkening, clouds gathering overhe...Junzhi Mu strode out of the club's bathroom. He had just sparred with Lu Qinian, but his heart remained restless and agitated. He put on the outfit prepared for him by the club: a bespoke dark purple shirt that highlighted his impeccable figure, exuding an air of understated elegance. Water still dripped from his short hair as he stared coldly at the unexpected visitor before him.

Easy Si Chen.

Jun Zhimu's eyes didn't have much emotion. He directly sat down on the seat next to Pei Haoran, his gaze falling on the computer screen already open on the table, browsing through information. He completely ignored the guest in front of him.

"Cousin, I came to see you today because I have something important!"

Yisichen's face wasn't looking good, his words laced with annoyance. The man before him was still as arrogant and dismissive as ever.

Lu Qinnan had just been beaten up, his delicate frame still softened from the blow. He slumped against the booth, glancing at Yi Sicheng with a sneer... another reckless fool.

Even if Lord Mu doesn't speak, his chilling aura alone should tell anyone that he's in a bad mood right now. Coming to him at this time wouldn't be asking for death

When they saw Yi Sicheng, both he and Pei Haoran wanted to kick him out. However, they came up with a wicked scheme.

Jun's shepherd, my anger hasn't subsided yet, letting this Yi Sicheng be a vent for it is also good.

The club was closed today, the large space echoing with even a whispered word. The usually bustling place was quiet now, only the gentle tapping of keyboards breaking the silence.

Jun's pastoral hands darted across the laptop's mouse and keyboard area, swiftly scrolling through the files on screen. He remained oblivious to his cousin.

Yi Sicheng's face flushed, and he took a large stride forward. His voice rose with anger, "Jun Zhimu, I came here today to find you about something!"

Even my cousin doesn't want to call him by that name anymore. This pampered child of the Jun family has never looked down on them, his relatives.

Perhaps Yi Sicheng's words were a bit loud and annoying.

The man at the booth only slightly raised his head, glanced at him with displeasure, and looked like he was about to throw him out.

"Why haven't you been to the AmAm headquarters lately My mom said you took a leave of absence. Did you take a year off" Yi Sicheng saw that he finally responded and didn't beat around the bush, going straight to the point.

"Yi Sicheng, it turns out you came all this way to care about your cousin. It's going to rain red."

Lu Qinan grinned wickedly, looking on with malicious glee.

Yi Sicheng has become much more composed in the past six months. He used to be too competitive and always liked to compare himself to his cousin, losing miserably every time. It wasn't until after Qiao Baier's incident that he became a lot more grounded.

He ignored Lu Qinan's provocation and instead stared straight at the only grandson of the Jun family before him, repeating his question, "Why did you take such a long leave"

Yi Jia was making him very irritable. He had been running out constantly these past six months, only returning last month from Munich. His mother, Jun Qingya, happily told him that Jun Zhi Mu had actually given up all business dealings with the &am;am; Group, saying that his grandfather had personally ordered it. And for the entire year to come, the group's business would be handled entirely by several vice presidents and his mother along with several aunts.

This is very abnormal.

"Junzhi Mu, are you okay You haven't been working for such a long time, there must be something wrong."

The man in the booth paused his finger hovering over the computer screen.

But the Lu Qinnan sitting opposite him raised an eyebrow, it seemed that this Yi Sicheng's mind wasn't broken yet.

I heard that Qiao Bao'er's aunt went to Jun's house and made a scene yesterday, and Gu Ruyue even took her away...

Yi Sicheng continued speaking, and the man who had originally wanted nothing to do with him immediately showed anger when he heard Yi Sicheng mention " Qiao Baoer." His deep eyes turned cold and sharp.

Yi Sicheng looked at him clearly, anger on his face, and said with a hint of triumph, "It seems Qiao Bao'er's aunt doesn't like you very much."

Jun, the shepherd, slammed his laptop shut with a resounding bang, his eyes flashing coldly as he spat out, "Don't push me to touch your Yi family's business."

Even if he didn't participate in the &am; group's business, bringing down a company he disliked would be easy for him.

Yi Sicheng straightened his back, his face paling.

He certainly knew Jun Zhimu's capabilities. His mother had taught him from a young age to curry favor with this cousin, and forbade him from ever opposing Jun Zhimu.

"As for you, Jun Zhi Mu, don't get too cocky. I told you there would be someone out there who could make you fall!"

Yi Sicheng glared at her with a darkened face, angrily cursing, “I don’t care why you left the &am;am; Group’s business. All I want to know is if you implicated Qiao Baoer. Don't think I don't know, I sent people to investigate. The strange text messages Qiao Baoer received, the takeout with laxatives added, and even being harmed in the hospital—all of this is targeted at you.”

"As for her, she's your sister-in-law now. I owe her an apology because I have no right to interfere. But what about you You are with her, and you will only hurt her!"

His words echoed repeatedly in the cold and empty club hall...

As soon as Lu Qinan heard this, his scalp tightened. This Yi Sicheng was clearly getting on his nerves.

He cautiously turned his head to look at Jun Zhimu. His face was gloomy, and his right hand clenched tightly around the silver-gray laptop computer, veins bulging on his knuckles.

To Lu Qinan and the others' surprise, he didn't get angry.

“Master Jun is too harsh and cold. He's not suitable for you. He married you and got close to you because he definitely had ulterior motives. His heart is deep, his intentions are inscrutable, and even so many elders in the circle can’t see through him. Bao’er, Master Jun will harm you.”

At the same time, five o'clock in the afternoon, late autumn, the sun in the west was gradually setting, and a hazy golden afterglow streamed into this exquisite detached villa. In her ears, Gu Ruyue’s gentle voice was teaching.

Two people sat at the dining table in front of the kitchen. Qiao Bao'er wore an apron, a small basket of vegetables between her legs, and she lowered her head, her hands skillfully picking out vegetables, discarding some wilted leaves and old stems. Her expression looked very focused, as if she hadn't heard Gu Ruoyan's instructions at all.

And her aunt Gu Ruyue's mood was much calmer today. This morning, she was taken to the market to buy vegetables and fish, and accompanied by buying a lot of oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar. Aunt seemed to enjoy this peaceful and simple life very much. Even now, she speaks gently and softly.

Gu Ruoyan patiently explained a lot to her, she just listened quietly without agreeing or disagreeing.

Qiao Bao'er had sorted the vegetables in the basket and looked up, just as Gu Ruoyan stood up from the chair opposite her and reached out to take the small vegetable basket.

"I'm going to get washed, you sit still and don't move around. This water is getting cold. If you catch a cold while pregnant now, it will be troublesome."

Saying that, Gu Ruyue turned and walked into the kitchen ahead, turning on the tap to wash vegetables.

Jo Baoer didn't rush to do the work either. She sat honestly, watching the busy figure in the kitchen, feeling a bit uncomfortable in her heart.

Her aunt scolded her and hit her, but in the end, she still felt sorry for her. looked serious, stepping forward to refute him. "You promised us before that Qiao Bao'er had successfully landed on the island. If she was flying at the time, then...""Gu Ruqing has a way to escape t...
