Chapter 470 Xu Youning’s Plan

If he had known and trusted Xu Youning more, if he had observed her more carefully, he would have noticed that Xu Youning was just pretending in front of him.

If he had understood that Xu Youning was just pretending, what happened next... wouldn’t have been so horrible.

Walking to the end of the porch, Ah Guang pushed open the door of the last room and said gravely, “Sister Youning, you can stay here for now.”

Xu Youning tipped her head and looked inside. Although it was only a small room, it was clean and tidy. It wasn’t exquisite, but it had the basic equipment.

In the past, to smoothly fulfil the task she was assigned to, she had faced more horrible living conditions which she could live through. So the “prison” in front of her eyes was acceptable.

On the contrary, Ah Guang felt quite uneasy about the place.

Xu Youning said in a relaxed tone on purpose, “Ah Guang, it would seem by your expression that you are the one who’s being locked here.”

“Sister Youning...” Ah Guang failed to put up a smile. He stopped for a minute and added carefully, “Don’t do anything stupid or harmful to yourself.”

Xu Youning was amazed by his words, then she smiled.

She would have had plenty of things to do then, which were planning to run, finding Kang Ruicheng in City A and avenging her grandma...

The only thing she wouldn’t do was to act stupidly. She couldn’t afford the time.

Xu Youning patted on Ah Guang’s shoulder and gave him a look to reassure him. “Don’t worry. I don’t want to commit suicide now. Besides, Committing suicide is the act of a coward. Do you think I would do that?”

Ah Guang bit his lips and barely made up a smile to go with Xu Youning’s relaxed tone. “Anyway, you have to keep in mind that you will only be staying here temporarily. Seventh Brother... he won’t really hurt you. I will also help you!”

Mu Sijue?

Only thinking of those two words stiffened the smile by Xu Youning’s lips.

How could Ah Guang think that Mu Sijue wouldn’t hurt her... Maybe Ah Guang had overestimated her too much. For Mu Sijue, she was really not that important.

Besides, she had already caused a scene. Even if Mu Sijue wanted to leave her alive, she would force Mu Sijue to hurt her for the plan.

Ah Guang might be disappointed soon.

Thinking about it, Xu Youning changed the subject and said “Thank you” to Ah Guang. Then she reminded him, “It’s time for you to go back and report.” At last, she voluntarily walked into the room and closed the door.

Ah Guang locked the door with a grim face and trapped Xu Youning inside. After thinking for a while, he unlocked Xu Youning’s handcuffs through the small window. Before he left, he was still worried and said to Xu Youning, “Sister Youning, I will come to see you every day!”

Xu Youning smiled and waved her hand to Ah Guang, which meant she was asking him to leave.

Ah Guang still felt something was wrong so he wasn’t reassured. He kept turning his head on his way out. It should have been a road which would only take him half a minute, but he spent a whole minute getting in the elevator and going upstairs.

After Ah Guang’s figure was out of her sight, Xu Youning closed the window immediately. She glanced through the whole room without any movements and found no camera.

But knowing Mu Sijue, there had to be hidden cameras in the room. Every move of hers was surely being recorded.

Therefore, even if she wanted to do something, it couldn’t be too obvious.

Thinking about it, Xu Youning lay in bed, rolled herself into a ball and kept still.

Her gesture now must seem extremely desperate when transmitted to the terminal through the camera.

That was her exact intention. She wanted Mu Sijue and Ah Guang to believe that she didn’t want to live anymore.

Thus, Mu Sijue lower his guard toward her, which would be an advantage for her to escape.

As for the reason why she didn’t make Ah Guang help her escape...

She didn’t want to drag Ah Guang into her trouble.

Currently, she was alone in the world. There was nobody worrying about her nor anyone she cared for. Even if she failed this time, she would die in Mu Sijue’s hands at most.

The world would go on as usual without her. Nothing special would happen.

But Ah Guang was different. His father had a close connection with the Mu family and he was greatly trusted by Mu Sijue. He had a bright future and a promising career. He would have a happy life.

Once he helped her, Ah Guang would lose Mu Sijue and the other brothers’ trust. Everything he had would be ruined by her.

Her grandma had died because of her. She couldn’t get anyone else into trouble.

So she told Ah Guang that she wanted to die. Even if Ah Guang wanted to save her, he couldn’t do anything about it. Who could save a man when the person had lost the desire to live?

As for whether Ah Guang believed in her words... It depended on how well she performed.

It turned out that Xu Youning’s performance was marvelous. Ah Guang completely believed in her words.

After having left the underground second floor, Ah Guang hurriedly went to find Mu Sijue. He was in a rush to tell Mu Sijue that Xu Youning wanted to die so he could plead for his sympathy.

But Mu Sijue was neither in the office, nor in the apartment. His phone was also out of reach.

He searched every place he could think of but he still had no information about Mu Sijue.

At last, a brother told Ah Guang that Mu Sijue had driven away after leaving the club. He didn’t seem well. He didn’t tell anyone where he was going and nobody dared to ask.

Ah Guang thought for a second and seemed to have understood something. He sighed. “Forget it. I’ll find him tomorrow.”

That night, no one would be able to find him unless Mu Sijue himself wanted to show up.

Xu Youning’s impact on Mu Sijue was larger than anyone could imagine.

Almost at the same time Ah Guang left the club, Mu Sijue arrived in another club in City G.

Although Mu Sijue hadn’t been there for a long time, all the staff in the club knew him. Seeing his unkind expression, they greeted him carefully, “Seventh Brother, both Molly and Vivan are here. Who do you want to...?”

Mu Sijue narrowed his eyes and said, “Either is okay.” Then, he walked directly into the elevator and went upstairs.

In fact, he hadn’t been there for almost half a year. He didn’t remember Molly or Vivan who had similar faces.

Even then, all he could remember was that little face which was not so stunning but was enough to make him angry.

After getting into the room, Mu Sijue went to take a shower first. When he came out, he found a beautiful girl lying in bed and looking at him with affection.

“Seventh Brother.” Molly’s voice was so soft that it could even melt one’s bones. “You haven’t come here in a long time. I’ve missed you every day.”

Mu Sijue stared at the girl in front of him and her face suddenly changed into Xu Youning’s face.

Xu Youning, if he let her go, let her go back to Kang Ruicheng, will she miss him? Or...

“Seventh Brother, what are you thinking about?” Molly walked up to him. Her tender and slim hands quietly touched his waist, “You shouldn’t think about other things at the moment.”

“...” Mu Sijue’s eyes turned dark. It wasn’t because of Molly, but he was thinking about something else—he wanted to release Xu Youning.

Xu Youning confessed in front of so many people that she was a spy sent by Kang Ruicheng. If he let her go, it was a clear announcement to the whole world that a spy was tolerable for him.

If so, how could he be trusted by his brothers after that?

Mu Sijue held Molly’s face and looked carefully.

She had big eyes, a delicate nose, red soft lips and a tender contour... It was a face made according to a beauty standard which could be called as perfect. It was so much prettier than Xu Youning’s face.

Aunt Zhou had always told him that it was easy to go from bad to good. He gave up Xu Youning who was just normal to enjoy such a beauty. It wouldn’t take him too much time, right?

“Seventh Brother.” Molly thought it was the right time so she tiptoed and tried to get closer to Mu Sijue. She smelled so fragrant. “I really missed you a lot.”

Mu Sijue lowered his head. Molly was delighted. She cutely lifted her head and slightly opened her lips with full expectation.

That was the reaction men liked, while Xu Youning only knew how to resist.

Mu Sijue’s breath was sprayed on Molly’s nose. Though it was warm, it was at a normal rhythm. When Xu Youning got close to him, it was different; it would only take him a second to get it disordered.

But could say that this sanity was not a good thing?

When Mu Sijue’s lips were about to land on Molly’s lips, Xu Youning’s face simply showed up in his mind. It was harmless but had a shocking impact on him. He suddenly left the woman who was in his arms.

“Seventh Brother?” Molly held Mu Sijue and her hands kept moving around his body, trying to arouse his interest. She said in a caring tone, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?”

“...”

“Seventh Brother, let me tell you a secret.” Molly caught Mu Sijue’s collar and smiled. “I majored in nursing. During my internship, I was a nurse for a whole year.”

Mu Sijue frowned and was suddenly disgusted by that kind of flirting. “Get out.”

Molly didn’t understand his meaning clearly. Mu Sijue waved his hand. She stepped backwards and it took her a few steps to stand stably. Then she tenderly said with uncertainty, “Seventh Brother...?” Her voice sounded nervous and delicate.

Pitifully, the thing Mu Sijue was most unfamiliar with in all his entire life was to care for a girl. He narrowed his eyes and shouted, “Fuck off!”

There seemed to be two furious lions in his two eyes. His eyes looked so grim that they could swallow everything. Molly felt the grimness and took up her heels to run out of the room without considering her appearance.

However, the fact that Molly left didn’t make him feel any better. He crashed the expensive lamp on the table. Looking at the glass residue, he couldn’t get Xu Youning’s face out of his mind...

Xu Youning. Those two words, that woman, trapping him so tightly as if it were magic.

In the past, Mu Sijue had thought there was nothing irreplaceable, especially women. A woman who approached him for some purpose like Xu Youning could be ditched or dealt with. It would only take an order.

Now he knew he was so wrong.

There was only one Xu Youning in this world. He only liked this Xu Youning.

No one could replace her. There was no second Xu Youning.

But, he couldn’t let Xu Youning live...
