Chapter 897 - Possessed by Love
Chapter 897 Possessed by Love
The drip dropped a little fast. Mu Sijue was worried that Aunt Zhou could not bear it, so he slowed it down.
When he withdrew his hand, he felt his mobile phone vibrated slightly in his pocket. He took it out and saw a text message from Xu Youning.
It was only a line of words that read, “Have you found Aunt Zhou?”
Mu Sijue dialed Xu Youning’s number while walking out.
After just a ring, Xu Youning picked up the phone and asked anxiously, “How is Aunt Zhou?”
Mu Sijue just said, “She’s injured.”
“Where is she hurt? Is it serious?” Xu Youning’s voice exposed her worry and anxiety.
“Something heavy hit her on the head, and she passed out because of excessive bleeding.” Considering that Xu Youning was also concerned about Aunt Zhou, Mu Sijue’s voice finally softened, “Don’t worry too much. The doctor said Aunt Zhou will wake up in a few hours.”
Xu Youning breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, she asked, “Why was Aunt Zhou injured? Did… Kang Ruicheng do that?”
Supposed that Mu Sijue and Kang Ruicheng switched roles and Xu Youning asked Kang Ruicheng the same question, Kang Ruicheng would probably tell Xu Youning that it was Mu Sijue who had gone crazy and hurt the old lady’s head which was the weakest part of the human body.
However, Mu Sijue was not Kang Ruicheng.
Mu Sijue told Xu Youning the whole story. After that, he paused for a moment and then continued, “Kang Ruicheng didn’t cause Aunt Zhou’s injury directly. But if he had kept his promise and let her back, Aunt Zhou wouldn’t have been hurt yesterday.”
He insisted to put the blame on Kang Ruicheng.
“Aunt Zhou was injured yesterday?” Xu Youning was a little surprised, but at the same time, she was angry. She asked, “Why did Kang Ruicheng take her to the hospital today? Is Aunt Zhou’s condition very bad?”
“After sending Aunt Zhou to the hospital, Kang Ruicheng regarded her as a trouble,” Mu Sijue’s cold voice showed his scorn, “if this wasn’t his last resort, he wouldn’t have sent Aunt Zhou to the hospital.”
“…”
Xu Youning didn’t say anything.
In fact, she was not surprised.
Personal interests first—that was indeed Kang Ruicheng’s conduct.
After Aunt Zhou was injured, the first thing Kang Ruicheng thought about must be what value Aunt Zhou had to him rather than her life.
Xu Youning closed her eyes for a second and stopped mentioning Kang Ruicheng anymore. She asked Mu Sijue, “What are you going to do next?”
Mu Sijue had already made the plan. He said, “When Aunt Zhou wakes up, I will transfer her to a private hospital.”
“I…” Xu Youning mumbled, “Mu Sijue, I want to…”
Mu Sijue knew what Xu Youning was thinking. He refused her before she could finish her words, saying, “It’s safe for you to stay at the top of the mountain. Aunt Zhou will go back after she recovers. It’s not late to visit her then.”
“Well, I’ll listen to you…”
Xu Youning’s voice showed little disappointment. Obviously, when she made the request, she was ready to be refused by Mu Sijue.
But she didn’t know that the last sentence “I’ll listen to you” inadvertently pleased Mu Sijue.
Mu Sijue responded with a gentle tone, “I’ll be back as soon as I deal with the matters here. You… eat regularly.”
He clearly paused for a moment after the word “you”.
Xu Youning didn’t expect that Mu Sijue only say “eat regularly”.
She couldn’t help laughing and teased him, “Mu Sijue, can your advice be more simple and plain?”
“Do you want to hear something flowery?” Mu Sijue smirked and said word by word, “Xu Youning, you’d better follow my instructions and stay at the top of the mountain. If I find you have other intentions, I will break your legs when I go back.”
“Ahem!” Xu Youning cleared her throat and said, “Mu Sijue, you’re on speaker now.”
Mu Sijue was stunned, which was rare. He asked, “Are you at Jian’an’s home?”
He thought Xu Youning was reminding him that there were others around.
“No. I’m still in my room,” Xu Youning said leisurely, “but I’m not the only person here. Your son, oh, maybe it’s your daughter—that’s not important. The point is that the child will regard his father as a violent maniac.”
“…” Mu Sijue raised the corner of his mouth. After a long while, he said, “If his father hadn’t been violent, how could he have been here?”
Mu Sijue was indeed very violent during the intercourse that caused Xu Youning’s pregnancy.
However, Xu Youning could have never expected that Mu Sijue would admit his violence under such circumstances.
She felt that she would rather Mu Sijue refuse to admit it.
Xu Youning’s mind was in chaos, and she couldn’t say a word.
Mu Sijue unhurriedly urged, “Xu Youning, isn’t the signal on top of the mountain good?”
Xu Youning squeezed out two words with difficulty, “Very good.”
“Then why didn’t you make a sound?”
Mu Sijue said in a calm tone. To put it nicely, he was unruffled; but to put it bluntly, he obviously—
Needed a spanking!
However, Xu Youning had to admit that she was no match for Mu Sijue.
Even if she could win against him, she was “too far away to do so” at the moment.
Xu Youning closed her eyes and took a deep breath. “Because I don’t want to talk to you!” She said.
“We don’t have any conflicts; why don’t you want to talk to me?” Pretending to be serious, Mu Sijue said slowly, “It’s not good for prenatal education.”
“Mu Sijue!” Xu Youning wanted to turn over the table, “Whose behavior is not good for prenatal education? Tell me with your conscience!”
“Damn it!
“Mu Sijue talked erotic words frequently. What did I say? I didn’t even mention prenatal education!
“I just said I didn’t want to talk to him, and he thought it was not good for prenatal education?
“What an obvious double standard! How… shameless!”
Xu Youning swore that if she put up with Mu Sijue anymore, she would call him grandpa in the future!
At that time, a stormy scene was playing in Xu Youning’s mind.
Mu Sijue seemed to know it. He did not make a sound until the “storm” stopped. He asked, “Do you mean that I’m the one who sets a bad example for the baby?”
“Yes!” Xu Youning roared, “It’s true!”
“What did I do?” Mu Sijue said slowly and expectantly, “Tell me, and I will definitely correct my mistakes.”
Xu Youning sneered in her heart.
She knew Mu Sijue said it on purpose!
He was waiting for her to say it and then took advantage of her.
She would not be fooled!
Thinking about that, Xu Youning sneered from the bottom of her heart. She responded, “Mu Sijue, it’s your inherent feature. I don’t think you can change.”
“You think I can’t change. But in fact, you don’t want me to change.” Mu Sijue cleverly took aim at Xu Youning, “Xu Youning, you like me to be like this, don’t you?”
“…”
Xu Youning was stunned by the question.
Mu Sijue’s tone was so certain that for a moment, she almost admitted that Mu Sijue was right.
Fortunately, she was not completely stupid and soon realized that Mu Sijue was misleading her.
“Mu Sijue!” Xu Youning gnashed her teeth and said, “Do you know you are breaking the rules?”
Instead of answering her, Mu Sijue just smiled on the phone.
Xu Youning was astonished.
If she didn’t hear it wrong, Mu Sijue sounded very happy.
But hadn’t he been in a bad mood just now?
Their dialogue on the phone sounded like a quarrel. But Mu Sijue was in a good mood?
It must be because he took a perverted delight in winning the argument!
“Xu Youning, there’s one more thing that you should know,” Mu Sijue suddenly said.
“What’s it?” Xu Youning didn’t cooperate at all. Her lazy voice showed no interest in this thing.
Mu Sijue said slowly, “Today, Mumu sent Aunt Zhou to the hospital. In addition, he asked the nurse to contact Yunyun to tell us what happened in the hospital.”
Xu Youning was a little surprised. After a while, she spoke, “So?”
“So, you are right,” Mu Sijue said. “That guy is different from Kang Ruicheng.”
Xu Youning didn’t say anything.
Even if Mumu was different from Kang Ruicheng, it couldn’t change the fact that he was Kang Ruicheng’s son.
“Xu Youning?” Mu Sijue asked, “Are you still with me?”
“Yes.” Xu Youning hesitated for a moment and answered, “Go and accompany Aunt Zhou. I’ll go to Jian’an’s home.”
“Okay.”
Mu Sijue didn’t hang up right away. Instead, he was waiting for Xu Youning to hang up first.
In less than two seconds, the call ended. Mu Sijue slightly raised the corner of his mouth and went back to the ward.
Since Mu Sijue came out, the men who guarded outside the ward had been devoted to their duties and keeping silent.
After Mu Sijue returned to the ward, they gathered together spontaneously with strange expressions on their faces.
In the end, someone broke the silence and said, “Do you believe in supernatural things?”
Some shook their heads, and some nodded.
That person then added, “Whether you believe it or not, you must have heard of ‘possession’. Seventh Brother must have been possessed just now!”
“That’s a good explanation!” The one who shook his head echoed, “I didn’t believe in ghosts and gods, but now I do!”
“Me too,” another person said diffidently, “how could Seventh Brother act like that in the past! Oh dear, he even smiled just now! If he wasn’t happy, I would have been scared to cry!”
“Idiot. Seventh Brother didn’t smile at you. Why would you cry?” Another person said, “Think about it. Seventh Brother would only be possessed when he calls Sister Youning, right?”
The others pondered for a moment and nodded successively.
Indeed, in front of others, Mu Sijue was still the same as before — dignified and frightening.
“You’ve been talking for so long. Do you know what possesses Seventh Brother?”
Ah Guang’s voice suddenly came. Everyone followed the sound and found him standing against the wall of the elevator. They didn’t know when he had come back.
They asked curiously, “Brother Guang, what do you think dares to possess Seventh Brother? Is it a ghost or a god?”
Someone shouted before Ah Guang, “I think it’s a demon!”
There was a burst of laughter.
Not until others stopping laughing did Ah Guang uncover the secret. He said, “Seventh Brother is possessed by love.”
