Taking risks without any return is, in any case, a foolish thing to do!
Gu Feng couldn't help but feel some doubt and said, "Baby, are you sure about wanting to kill Mu Jiangfeng?"
"Yes! I'm sure!" Lan Baobao nodded, completely trusting her son's words. A woman like Mu Jiao'er could do anything.
Because the plan had failed, the blame was placed entirely on Mu Jiangfeng. Out of resentment, wanting to kill him was understandable.
Others might not do such a foolish thing, but Mu Jiao'er definitely would.
"Mu Jiao'er is the murderer. The person who changed the medicine last time and the one who wants to remove Mu Jiangfeng's mask this time both failed. I'm afraid Mu Jiao'er will try again, so we must protect Mu Jiangfeng well; otherwise, he will be in danger."
"Okay, don't worry. I will arrange this matter; you just focus on resting, alright?" Gu Feng noticed that Lan Baobao's emotions seemed a bit out of control. She organized her feelings and slowly reassured her.
"Baby, just stay here and rest for now. You can't leave until Mu Jiao'er is caught."
"Gu Feng, Ye Zixun knows how to handle the situation with Mu Jiao'er. Just help me protect Mu Jiangfeng."
"I'll go handle it right away; you stay put." With that, Gu Feng immediately left.
Watching Gu Feng's departing figure, Lan Baobao finally breathed a sigh of relief. She hoped that the woman Mu Jiao'er would be found soon; otherwise, it would really be out of hand.
Lan Baobao couldn't help but feel a bit of resentment towards herself as she reflected.
If she had known earlier that sparing Mu Jiao'er would only lead to more severe retaliation and make her even more deranged, she would have had Gu Feng and Ye Zixun deal with her properly from the start.
A moment of mercy had brought them this great trouble.
Lan Baobao lay down steadily, looking at the ceiling, quietly lost in thought.
“Mu Jiao'er, I will not let you continue your reckless behavior any longer!”
At the hotel.
“Sister Mu, it's time to pay the rent.” A few hours later, the hotel manager personally came to collect the rent.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Mu Jiao'er was extremely annoyed by the noise outside. She threw off the blanket, immediately got out of bed, and shouted loudly towards the door, “What are you yelling about?”
“Sister Mu.” The manager seemed to be immune to Mu Jiao'er's scolding and didn't care much anymore.
He followed Mu Jiao'er into the room with a smile.
Seeing the things in the room, he noticed that quite a few items were missing. It seemed this woman had no choice but to sell her luxury goods.
Since she had sold them, she should have some ample funds for now!
The hotel manager was quite professional and politely said to Mu Jiao'er: “Sister Mu, I am just following protocol. I hope you won't take it personally. You should pay us the rent today, and also settle the costs for the items you broke last time. I already mentioned it to you before!
We run a hotel here; everything needs to be handled honestly. If a guest owes us rent, it can become very troublesome.
This business can't afford that, can it?”
“Cut the crap; you just want money, right? Stop wasting my time with all this talk!” Mu Jiao'er replied, tired of talking to this useless person.
She took out a stack of cash from her bag and handed it to the manager.
“Take the money and get out of this room immediately. I don't want to see you again during this time!”
Who would want to stay after collecting the money? Who would want to see Mu Jiao'er, so arrogant and with dark circles under her eyes, her face bloodshot?
The manager counted the money in his hands, and after confirming that everything was in order, he smiled and said, "That's right, working with Sister Mu has been quite pleasant. I hope for your continued support in the future!"
"Get out of here quickly!"
Mu Jiao'er shouted, grabbing a winter break and throwing it at him. The manager was agile and dodged back, finally peeking his head out and laughing, "Sister Mu, I wish you a good mood!"
After making that sarcastic remark, the manager left, closing the door behind him.
Mu Jiao'er shot a disdainful glance at the door. Damn it, did he really think this was an international hotel? If it weren't for her current situation, how could she waste time with him here?
Even a manager could be so foolish.
And he dared to wish her a good mood.
What a jerk!
That remark was clearly adding insult to injury.
Looking at herself in the mirror, disheveled and pale with bloodshot eyes, how could she possibly be in a good mood?
He was clearly mocking her!
Just as Mu Jiao'er turned around, she heard loud knocking at the door. She spun back around in anger and rushed to open it.
"Damn it, I told you..." Just as she was about to curse loudly, she realized that standing at the door were Ye Zixun and his men.
Mu Jiao'er was startled and hurriedly stepped back two paces. How did Ye Zixun find her here?
Ah, why is he here so soon? Has her whereabouts been exposed?
Ye Zixun... what will he do?
"Ye Zixun, how did you get here?" Mu Jiao'er trembled and took two steps back, fear evident in her eyes as she stared at him.
"How did I get here?" Ye Zixun stepped closer, his handsome face darkened with a chilling glare, the cold aura emanating from him seemed capable of tearing Mu Jiao'er apart.
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a cold smile as he said, "Mu Jiao'er, how could you not know why I'm here? Do you want me to tell you the exact reason for my presence?"
Mu Jiao'er's face turned pale. She had been hiding from Ye Zixun for quite some time; how could he have found her? No one should be able to locate her here.
In this godforsaken hotel, there wasn't even a bus stop nearby. How could they find her so quickly?
Could it be that when she sold those luxury items, someone from Ye Zixun's side had been watching her?
How could she have been so careless?
The staff at those luxury stores were all people who lived off others' wealth; every one of them knew Ye Zixun. With just a little hint and a small favor from Ye Zixun, they could easily sell her out.
Mu Jiao'er regretted it immensely; if she had known, she would have stayed in this place and not gone out at all.
"Ye Zixun, listen to me. It's not what you think. Actually, I..."
"Actually what? That you didn't harm Lan Baobao and didn't intend to force Lan Baobao to take the abortion pills you gave her?"
The icy light in Ye Zixun's eyes fell upon Mu Jiao'er’s face, clearly indicating that he had guessed all of Mu Jiao'er’s actions.
"Do you think I, Ye Zixun, am someone you can fool? No matter what you say, it won't matter. The facts are right in front of us; there's no way to argue your way out!"
"I didn't!" Mu Jiao'er was not only trembling physically, but her voice was also shaking. Right now, she could only fight to deny it. "Ye Zixun, I don't have that thought, I really don't have that thought. None of this is true! You have to believe me, believe me!"
Ye Zixun was too tired to waste any more words with this woman. He raised his arm and waved it.
The men standing behind Ye Zixun seemed to have received his signal, rushing forward without a word to grab Mu Jiao'er and lift her out of the room.
Mu Jiao'er felt a sense of dread in her heart; it would be terrible if she were taken away by Ye Zixun now. Her first reaction was to scream loudly, hoping someone would hear her cries for help and come to save her.
"Help! Help! Someone is trying to kill me, help!"
But there were usually no people in this hotel, so how could anyone come to her rescue?
At the end of the corridor, a cleaning lady finally appeared. Mu Jiao'er felt as if she had found a lifeline and shouted frantically, "Help me! Please help me! I'll give you all my money, all my luxury items, everything! Please save me!"
The cleaning lady seemed to ignore everything and quietly continued mopping the floor.
Ye Zixun walked over, pulled out a stack of cash from his pocket, and placed it on the cleaning lady's cart. He said casually, "Everything in that room is yours now. Do whatever you want with it. Just make sure to divide it cleanly."
This was the first time the cleaning lady had encountered someone like him. She continued mopping silently while glancing at the pile of money beside her.
So much money—more than her half-year salary.
Rich people are so fortunate.
After all, that woman was usually quite annoying; it was only natural for her to offend someone outside. If others came seeking revenge, she deserved it!
It had nothing to do with her as a cleaner; why not take the money? Just turn a blind eye and move on.
Ye Zixun was very pleased with the cleaning lady's cleverness.
One should speak up when it's time to speak, and when it's not the right moment, one should remain silent.
Mu Jiao'er is much smarter!
Thinking about it, that Mu Jiao'er is even worse than a cleaning lady. How could she have spent so many years with this woman? She must really be foolish!
After Mu Jiao'er cried out, she realized that no one was paying attention to her, and no one would come to her rescue. With no other choice, Mu Jiao'er had to give up. Just as she was about to step into the elevator, she suddenly turned and bit the man on her left hard.
The man was completely caught off guard by Mu Jiao'er's sneaky move. Unprepared, he felt a sharp pain in his hand, and then Mu Jiao'er kicked him hard, allowing her to break free.
Seeing an opportunity, Mu Jiao'er kicked the other man away and immediately ran toward the elevator.
As she reached the elevator, she quickly pressed the button. Just as the two men chased after her outside the elevator, Mu Jiao'er dashed inside.
Strangely enough, when the two men saw Mu Jiao'er slip into the elevator in an instant, they had enough time to rush to the elevator door.
However, they did not immediately rush in; instead, they stood by the elevator waiting for Ye Zixun, seemingly indifferent to whether Mu Jiao'er would escape or not.
They only cared about Ye Zixun's attitude.
