Perhaps because he had too much to worry about, he felt both mentally and physically exhausted. These past few years, Mu Yuchen’s body had weakened since his days in the troop. Although he did not fall terribly ill, he would catch a cold easily.
Xi Xiaye wanted him to get a full-body checkup with her once he was done being busy, but when work piled on, the checkup was delayed. Even Xi Xiaye did not go herself, so they could only wait till the next public holiday before they could get checked.
He had been busy handling the incident with Zhou Zimo and dealing with the police. If things were not handled well, it would be bad for Zhou Zimo because when the time came, Zhou Zimo might have to go to jail.
Sadly, Zhou Zimo was still unconscious and it had been quite a few days now.
On the Zhou family’s end, he was worried that he would not be able to keep a secret from them for long. He had called Elder Zhou before this, and the Elder complained about Zhou Zimo.
“Master!”
When Mu Yuchen did not answer him for a long time, Li Si went to get the medicine and poured him a cup of water.
Upon hearing Li Si’s voice, Mu Yuchen looked up wearily and looked at the white pills in the napkin that Li Si handed him, but he did not reject them. He quietly swallowed them and drank some water as he said with a raspy voice, “Call Lawyer Henry and Lawyer Charlie over to take a look. See if we can get Zimo released on bail. No matter how much we have to pay, no one back home must know about this incident.”
“Yes, Master! I got it!” Li Si’s tone was unusually solemn. “However, Master, right now all the evidence points to Master Mo. I’m worried that it won’t be good for him. The new company’s expanding quite well over here, but the way Master Mo does things…has offended quite a number of people.”
“Zimo’s like that. I’m used to it too. I always advised him to be more careful.” Mu Yuchen withdrew his hand and breathed in heavily. “If he continues like this, he will be taken advantage of.”
“Yes, Master Mo…If it were not for Master Su and Master helping out, Master Mo would probably have met a much worse fate. However, Master, this time…I’m worried that you will be implicated. Every time Master Mo gets dragged into things like this, it’s always you that worries. Aren’t they concerned about involving you too? Just like the last time, it was also here that…”
As for Zhou Zimo, Li Si knew about the three brothers very well, especially from Ah Mo. Apart from feeling bad for his Master, he would sometimes be unhappy about Zhou Zimo.
However, when Li Si said this, he stopped and his indignant voice stopped abruptly because he saw gloominess and sharpness flash in his Master’s eyes that were filling with an imposing manner, so he dared not say anything more!
He seemed to understand more now. While his Master usually looked profound, calm, and indifferent, he was on the contrary on the inside.
The Missus and the Mu family, as well as Su Chen and Zhou Zimo, were all his soft spots…
“Li Si, Su Chen and Zhou Zimo are people who have gone through 30 years with me. To me, they’re not just my friends or even my comrades in battle. They are brothers, no, they are more than that, so don’t let me hear what you said today again. This was the second time. If there’s a next time, you can resign.”
Mu Yuchen’s lowered voice contained a hint of chill, and his gaze made Li Si shudder. He quickly lowered his head and explained, “I’m sorry, Master. I understand. I just…”
1As Mu Yuchen’s eyes darkened, he took in a deep breath, then waved to Li Si to say softly, “Go out first. Wake me up in half an hour. I’m going to check on Zimo in the hospital.”
Li Si calmed down and then nodded to say, “Yes, Master!” Then, he left in a panic, afraid that Mu Yuchen would be angry.
When the door closed, Mu Yuchen leaned against the sofa wearily. This medicine seemed to have a drowsy effect. Soon, he could not hold back the sleepiness that came to him, so he fell into a deep sleep to the point that he did not even notice the phone beside him buzzing.
At this moment, it was late at night in City Z’s Grand Waves Villa.
Xi Xiaye frowned and watched as the phone screen go dim again. She hesitated, then turned to look at her sons who had fallen asleep. After a while, she got down from the bed and took a cardigan from the side to put over her shoulders before walking out of the bedroom.
She called Li Si again.
Li Si did not expect that Xi Xiaye would call him. When he picked up the phone, he thought it was odd. Since he had just been softly reprimanded by Mu Yuchen, he was now careful. When he heard Xi Xiaye’s voice. he felt much calmer.
“Assistant Li Si, where’s your Master? Why isn’t he picking up my call?”
The call had just gone through when Xi Xiaye’s anxious voice was heard.
“Missus, the Master’s been working through the night and he seems to have gotten a cold. I’ve just given him some medicine, so he’s probably resting right now,” Li Si explained with concern in his tone.
“A cold?”
When Xi Xiaye heard that, she frowned even more. He seemed to never know how to take good care of himself.
“Will you watch over him? How are things on that end?”
“It’s a little sticky. We might need to stay here much longer. Master Mo…”
Li Si was about to mention that Zhou Zimo had not regained consciousness, but then he remembered that the Master might not have mentioned this to Missus yet. He thought about it, then felt like it was best not to say anything.
“Stay much longer? Would you be back in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival?”
“We don’t know yet, Missus. Later, when Master wakes up, I will let him know. Missus, please take good care of yourself too.”
…
Li Si did not reveal too much, which made Xi Xiaye uneasy. She thought about it for a long time and decided that she could not do much, so she fell back asleep uneasily, but she had already lost sleep for the entire night.
…
Meanwhile, on the other end, when Mu Yuchen rushed to the hospital, the doctor had just finished doing a checkup for Zhou Zimo.
The doctor explained Zhou Zimo’s condition to Mu Yuchen in English. The rough meaning was that Zhou Zimo’s head had suffered severe injuries, so he needed time to rest. There were no blood clots in his head, thus he would probably wake up quite soon. His other vitals were looking fine too, and he would gradually recover from his injuries.
Upon hearing the doctor say that, Mu Yuchen felt relieved. He was really worried that Zhou Zimo would not regain consciousness like Ruan Heng.
However, when he talked to Xiaye on the phone a few days ago, Xiaye did say that Ruan Heng might be waking up soon and would sometimes subconsciously move his fingers.
