Chapter 579 BY MY SIDE
Just ten minutes later, Mu Liang stopped working. He looked at the woman who was closing his eyes. He was a bit surprise. At first, he thought that it was one of his secretaries so he didn't pay any attention.
He stood up from his chair and stretched his arms before walking towards Mu Lan. He went behind her and hugged her neck. He softly asked, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were coming?"
Mu Lan's line of thoughts broke. She opened her face and looked up to see his face. Then she said with a serious face, "Liang Liang, I have something to tell you."
Mu Liang agreed. "Okay. Let's have lunch and we will chat at the same time. Did you tell Ju Long to order your portion?"
"I did." Mu Lan answered.
Right that time, Assistant Ju Long knocked the door and opened it. "Boss and madam, your lunch is ready." He put the large packet down.
"I will serve the food. You can have some time to relax." Mu Lan said with a smile.
"Thank you, madam." Assistant Ju Long bowed in gratitude and left.
Mu Lan looked at Mu Liang and commented, "He will turn into a nice housewife."
Mu Liang bluntly said, "I'm straight."
Mu Lan giggled and served the food.
Both of them sat together and had their lunch slowly.
"You wanted to talk about something." Mu Liang reminded her.
Mu Lan was quiet for a moment before saying, "In Italy, I met him. Not the fake one, but the real him."
Mu Liang paused. At first, he wasn't sure whom she was talking about, but when she said 'not the fake one, but the real him', he understood instantly.
He looked at his food and continued eating.
"Hugo didn't inform you…. I'm a bit surprised…" Mu Lan said. She also wasn't sure why The Cobra didn't inform her earlier. But she had a guess, it might not be correct.
Mu Liang said, "…Hugo is missing."
Mu Lan blinked. "Missing?"
Mu Liang explained, "A few weeks ago. He was still in Paris and he was supposed to meet us in Italy. Before he was gone missing, he left a message about something came up and he had to deal with it."
"He never looked like a person who would recklessly do something without your permission." Mu Lan was still having a hard time to believe it.
Mu Liang nodded. "You are right. He isn't that type of person. He never acts recklessly. This time he did something without my permission. That's a first."
He gazed at her and asked, "…So did you feel that something has changed?" He went back to the original subject.
"Change what? You mean after meeting him?" Mu Lan had an idea that The Cobra was thinking the same thing, they wanted her memory come back, that's why they didn't warn her.
Mu Lan chuckled. "I did have some weird feeling about it, nothing more than that."
Mu Liang inquired. "What kind of feeling?"
Mu Lan looked outside of the window. "That I won't have a peaceful time until I finish my business with him. I also need to get my memories back before I go back to China."
"You won't be alone." Mu Liang reassured her.
"I know. But I want to fight it alone. Only this time." Mu Lan finished her meal. "Don't worry, he won't find me if I don't let him. He accidentally found me in Italy. I won't let him face this accident ever again. From now on, if I want, only then we will meet. If I don't want, we won't meet."
She showed Mu Liang a cruel smile. "Didn't he hurt me? Why don't I give him back everything in ten folds?" She turned around and left the office.
Mu Liang sighed in relief. "At least she is by my side. I want nothing more than that."
Mu Lan walked to the garage and went inside the car.
"You didn't stay too long." Mark commented.
Mu Lan didn't have the mood to joke around. "Next time you see someone from Li Family or Hua Family, give me a signal first. I don't want to face them unprepared."
Mark said, "As long as we are here, nothing will happen to you. Also, even if you are prepared, you cannot do anything since you can't recognize anyone."
Mu Lan still refused to be surprised like that. "I don't want to be frozen after seeing my enemy."
"You handled it pretty well." Mark was silent for a few seconds. "Do you hate him that much?"
Mu Lan chuckled. "Hate? I don't feel anything about him. The game will begin right after I get my memories back….. You guys are so amazing, why don't you treat me?"
Mark answered, "The doctor friend of yours did everything a genius would do. We think it's psychological and it will be triggered by that past love of your life."
"So that's why you didn't give me a heads-up." Mu Lan understood now. "Okay, I will go according to your wish. If seeing that ugly face can make me remember my past, I will see his face." She smiled. "After all, I have to thank him for hurting me so much, or else I wouldn't be able to meet Mu Liang."
Mark added, "Let me give you another thing to thank him. He was the one who insisted to take you to the Germany to join the competition. If it wasn't for him contribution, the Mu boy wouldn't get the chance to meet you and fall in love with you. Tsk, you always attract dangerous men."
Mu Lan was stunned hearing that the young master of the Li Family did such a huge favor. After hearing his complaints, she asked innocently, "Do you mean yourself? Who is more dangerous than you, The Cobra?"
Mark pointed out. "You are one of us. That makes you dangerous too."
Mu Lan gave him a logic. "Only flowers attract bees."
