Chapter 387 Miss Republic of China, She is Charming (11)

Mu Beichen didn't know why his plan suddenly changed.

He waited at the pier for a full two hours but did not arrive at Bai Wu.

It wasn't until the people on the ship were emptied that he reacted in panic——

In this life, he completely missed Bai Wu.

After some inquiries, I learned that she was taken to the Yancheng Police Station because she was involved in the arms case when she was on the boat.

Mu Beichen suddenly thought of the woman in Mu Cheng's arms.

No wonder he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity at that time.

It turned out that she was Bai Wu!
So without thinking about it, he drove to the police station.

He was dazed and restless all the way.

He didn't know what kind of appearance he should use to meet her after missing the trap he carefully laid out.

But it's okay.

Just meet.

Everything is possible.

...

Faced with Mu Beichen's questioning, Mu Cheng quickly guessed the ins and outs of the matter.

Was it because of Bai Wu that he went to the pier earlier?
But it is clear that Wu has been in country M before, and has no chance to get acquainted with Mu Beichen.

Why is he so eager to find her?
Closing his eyes, Mu Cheng said truthfully: "One minute before you arrived, she had already returned home with Director Bai."

An invisible sense of emptiness hit Mu Beichen's body again.

why?
Why is it almost again?
Mu Cheng had a panoramic view of his remorseful expression.

This kind of Mu Beichen was extremely strange to him.

Like himself, he is a person who is easy to show his emotions and anger.

Even when the mystery of their life experiences was revealed, Mu Beichen looked indifferent and fearful.

But now he showed such an expression just because he missed Bai Wu.

Moving his lips, Mu Cheng asked almost involuntarily: "What's your relationship with Bai Wu?"

Mu Beichen realized his gaffe, and immediately lowered his face: "It has nothing to do with you."

He turned around suddenly, carrying a cold air, turned his head and said coldly the moment he stepped into the back seat:
"Mucheng, it's best not to touch or even think about things you shouldn't meddle in and people who have nothing to do with you."

Otherwise, he would be even more insane than in his previous life.

Mu Cheng saw the killing intent flashing across Mu Beichen's eyes, and twitched the corners of his lips mockingly.

Sure enough, his fleeting retreat on the pier was all an illusion.

This is the way they should get along.

...

It was already three o'clock in the morning when Mu Cheng returned home.

This time is not too late for him.

But he was tired like never before.

He should be more relaxed and happy than ever since the major case that has been pending for a long time has been solved.

But now he was tightly surrounded by an inexplicable sense of emptiness.

The light in the living room was turned on, and the originally dark space was instantly filled with incandescent light.

But this light did not bring any warmth to the residence.

The neatly arranged space even became more lonely and desolate because of this cold light.

Mu Cheng stood at the entrance in silence for a moment, then walked into the bathroom.

He should have gotten used to this place by now, shouldn't he?
Warm liquid was sprinkled from the shower head, Mu Cheng raised his head, trying to let the warmth wrap himself up as much as possible.

The occasional suffocation gave his chaotic mind a moment of peace.

But he suddenly thought of something, he didn't even have time to turn off the shower, he hurriedly wrapped a bath towel and walked out.

He moved freely in the darkness, and soon came to the study.

Turning on the lamp on the desk, he easily found an exquisite gift box in the cabinet beside him.

Inside the box lay a jade pendant.

It was a gift from Mrs. Mu at his coming-of-age ceremony.

But before he had time to open it, the mystery of his life experience came one after another, disrupting all his life plans.

Later, he moved away from the shogunate, and he brought this gift box with him.

Mu Cheng ran out of the bathroom for no other reason, but suddenly remembered what Mrs. Mu said when she handed the box to him——

"Acheng, Dad and I have prepared a special surprise for you. It's in this box. Although it may be a bit abrupt to you, this is the best choice Mom and Dad made for you."

At that time, he smiled inexplicably: "What is so mysterious?"

Mrs. Mu and Master Mu looked at each other and smiled: "You open it quickly and take a look. We will explain to you after you read it."

But until now he has not opened it.

But he already had a faint guess in his heart.

Perhaps this box contained the answer he was looking for.

Mu Cheng unpacked it, opened the cover wrapped in red velvet, and a delicate and small dragon-shaped jade pendant came into his eyes.

The jade pendant was made into a semicircle and lay on the left side of the brocade box.

The missing half on the right seems to be quietly waiting for something.

Mu Cheng picked up the jade pendant in a daze, and then found a small roll of paper under it.

A string of birthday characters written with a brush are neatly arranged on it.

Not his.

The information about Bai Wu that I saw at the police station today suddenly appeared in my mind, and the date of birth on it overlapped with the one on the note.

Mu Cheng's fingertips trembled slightly.

He is really Bai Wu's fiancé.

Recalling the bits and pieces on the boat, all the fog dissipated.

No wonder she's been clinging to herself ever since she got on the boat.

It turned out that he knew his identity early in the morning, so he recognized himself?
Mu Cheng didn't know how he was feeling now.

I just felt that the heart in my chest was beating endlessly, and it was about to swallow him.

No sleep for one night.

The next day, he walked out of the bathroom with a pair of panda eyes.

After skillfully brewing a cup of coffee, Mu Cheng looked at the landline on the coffee table and fell into deep thought.

Should I call my parents to find out?
After moving out of Mu Mansion, he basically never contacted them because of his apology.

After thinking for a long time, Mu Cheng dialed the familiar number.

After the busy voice, a familiar female voice came from the phone: "Hello, who is it?"

Mu Cheng's throat rolled heavily, but he couldn't say that word in the end, so he just said lightly: "It's me."

Madam Mu on the other end of the phone instantly recognized his voice, and almost immediately choked up her throat: "Ah Cheng!"

Mu Cheng heard her intermittent voice coming from the phone: "...Jing An, come quickly, Ah Cheng is calling..."

Jing'an is the name of his adoptive father.

The tip of Mu Cheng's nose was a little sour.

"Mom, it's your birthday next month. I'll go back to see you then."

He finally spoke his mind.

Madam Mu on the other end of the phone was already crying: "Okay, okay, as long as you want to come back, your father and I will wait for you at home."

After all, he is a child raised for 20 years. Even if he is not related by blood, Mrs. Mu still regards him as her favorite child.

It's not that Mu Cheng doesn't understand Mrs. Mu's love for him.

But he didn't want to interfere with Mu Beichen's life again.

After chatting about the recent situation for a while, Mu Cheng finally spoke a second before the call was about to hang up:

"Mom, I want to ask, is my marriage contract with Miss Bai...is it true?"
