Chapter 1557 - Worry (1)
Chapter 1557: Worry (1)
The morning ended just like that, and inside the Imperial Sky Hotel’s luxurious VIP suite, when Su Chen woke up, it was already afternoon.
He propped himself up to sit on the bed and looked around to realize that he was in the Imperial Sky Hotel. His mind immediately flashed to last night’s scene.
He only remembered that last night he had dragged Mu Yuchen to drink lots. In the end, almost the whole table was filled with empty bottles. After that, his consciousness slowly became blurry to the extent that he only seemed to remember that he was drunk. Then, Mu Yuchen had brought him here where he fell asleep as soon as he got to the bed.
“You’re awake?”
Before he could return to his senses, a low voice came through.
He quickly turned to the sound and saw Mu Yuchen was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, drinking a cup of tea as he looked out of the window.
“Why are you here?” Su Chen scratched his head as he pulled open the blanket and got out of bed.
“I came over to inspect the situation here and decided to come to take a look at you too. Your clothes are on the chair, so clean up and put them on. I’ve applied for a day off for you. Your flight itinerary has been changed to 8 p.m. tonight. I’ve gotten Li Si to arrange for your flight ticket to be put into the pocket of your clothes,” Mu Yuchen said in a deep voice as he pointed towards the chair by the bed. Su Chen followed the direction of his finger to see that there were indeed several bags there.
“Wash up. I’ll wait for you outside. Your sister called me this morning, asking me to talk to you,” Mu Yuchen said before turning around to leave the room.
“What is there be to talk about?” Su Chen glanced at him in puzzlement.
“Do you think I want to talk to you? Dong Wentao’s woman bumped into Ji Zitong last night and there was a small dispute. Ji Zitong had minor injuries and Sis Su stayed with her at the hospital for the whole night. She only went home after a check-up in the morning. I’ll let you decide whether you want to go home and take a look at her or not.”
“Dong Wentao! Him again? I’ll get him. He can’t even control his own woman! How is she? Where did she get hurt? Was it that severe that she had to be hospitalized?” Su Chen practically jumped out of bed in that instant and swiftly put on his clothes, but Mu Yuchen had already disappeared out of the doorway.
Su Chen practically changed into his clothes at the quickest speed. After he washed up, he walked out with a head of wet hair while Mu Yuchen was drinking tea leisurely on the sofa.
Su Chen walked over and poured himself a cup of hot tea then finished in several gulps while he fixed his clothes and demanded, “What happened? Tell me the whole thing.”
“The car’s already ready downstairs. Li Si will explain the whole thing to you, but I must remind you that even though Dong Wentao is a nobody, Wang Yanran does have some family background. Right now is a critical time for Uncle Su, so it’s best that you handle this matter well. Otherwise, you’ll invite unnecessary trouble.”
Su Zhengxun was a well-known figure in the political scene, and right now it was a critical period. Therefore, he needed to keep going and had to be wary of the influence of public opinion. After all, the citizens did not care about the so-called truth since seeing was believing.
Su Chen nodded. “Don’t worry. I’ll watch out for that.”
“If you don’t handle this well, you can call Ah Mo. He’s best at handling these things. Don’t create unnecessary problems,” Mu Yuchen still carefully reminded him again.
“Got it. I’m leaving.”
Su Chen was obviously slightly worried.
Ji Zitong was hurt?
He wondered how she was doing now!
However, before Mu Yuchen could say more he had already left the room.
As he watched Su Chen leave, Mu Yuchen’s handsome face only flashed with a helpless smile.
Rat-a-tat!
At this moment, there was suddenly a knock on the door. Mu Yuchen calmly answered and the secretary soon walked in and respectfully bowed at him as she spoke, “Chairman Mu, the Young Master and Miss Weier are back. They’re waiting in the car downstairs. Missus says that you can bring them around the playground but she reminded you to be careful and to go home tonight. Remember to give her a call.”
Xi Xiaye was going abroad for work these next few days, so the little fellows would all be with Mu Yuchen. In fact, it was the children’s summer holidays right now, thus they did not need to go to school. They would either be at the Shen residence or come to work with Mu Yuchen. Nevertheless, the children were easy to take care of. They only needed to eat and sleep, and they would play with each other without disturbing him.
When the secretary finished, Mu Yuchen set his teacup aside and got up. “Let’s go.”
When he walked out of the hotel, the car was parked at the entrance. Mu Zirui and Qi Weier were already waiting in the car. Meanwhile, Sis Wang was carrying Mu Xiaocheng and standing on the side too.
“Dada…Dada…”
Mu Yuchen had just gotten close when Mu Xiaocheng began to cheerfully dance with joy and wave at him.
As Mu Yuchen lowered his gaze and watched the little fellow’s cute demeanor, his heart softened before he walked over and carried him. “Come here. Let Daddy carry you. Call Daddy and Mommy…”
“Mama…”
When Xi Xiaye was mentioned, the little guy looked around to search for Xi Xiaye, but he could not find her after a long while. He then held Mu Yuchen by the neck and called out, “Mama…”
“She’ll only be back after a few days. I’ll bring you out to play. Where’s your brother?”
“Daddy!”
At this moment, Mu Zirui and Qi Weier’s voices were heard from the car too.
Mu Yuchen then carried Mu Xiaocheng and got into the car.
Inside the car, Mu Yuchen carried Mu Xiaocheng and sat in the middle while Mu Zirui and Qi Weier sat on both sides.
Qi Weier was wearing a cute T-shirt and shorts, unlike her princess dresses from before. Xi Xiaye had mentioned that she hoped she could be more lively, so the clothes that she prepared for her were all changed to cute cartoons or more casual outfits. Qi Weier did not seem to reject this either. When she saw that Mu Zirui was always dressed up like a cool little young master, she got used to it and even started to fancy such styles.
Her blonde hair was combed into a cute little bun on her head as Xi Xiaye usually tied her hair as such. With a bow, she became a charming little princess.
As the car drove ahead, Mu Zirui suddenly said, “Daddy, the final exam results are going to be released soon. I’m fine, but Weier only got 39 marks for Math, and she barely passed Languages. Great-grandfather said that Weier should spend more time at the Shen residence so that Grandmother can help her with the subjects.”
When Mu Yuchen heard that, he carried Mu Xiaocheng to sit on his lap while he turned to Qi Weier beside him.
