derness, and softly soothed her, "Everything will pass."Lin Jinran resisted and shook her head. This was a thorn in her heart, how could she possibly let it go It was an insurmountable hurdle for her...The bodyguard replied, "Not yet."

Ye Xiao's sword brows furrowed even tighter, "Should we increase manpower"

"It's already added."

"More, please."

The bodyguard hesitated, nervously glancing at Ye Xiao, "Young Master Ye, if we add more, the commotion will be too loud, and we might be exposed."

The night owl immediately snarled, "Shut up!"

The bodyguard didn't dare say anything more, "Yes, I'll arrange it right away."

Just as he was about to turn around, a sudden knock on the door startled him.

The night owl raised its head and looked at the wooden door, saying in a low voice, "Come in."

The door creaked open and another bodyguard walked in, bowing respectfully. "Ye Shao, Mu Shaochen is here. He's waiting for you in the reception hall."

The night owl furrowed his sword brows, his cold and stern face slightly darkened.

He had only been back in Nanjiang for a day, and he came quietly.

Unexpectedly, Mu Shaocheng managed to track him down so quickly and even came looking for him.

This matter, if it weren't for Mu Shaocheng's appearance, he wouldn't have protected Lin Jinyan, leading to the woman resisting and running away.

He hadn't sought out Mu Shaocheng to settle the score, yet he came knocking on his door instead. Something must be amiss.

"Understood." Ye Xiao stood up from his boss's chair without expression, walked past the office and toward the door.

The bodyguard followed behind him, making their way to the living room together.

In the living room, Mu Shaocheng, who was standing by the window waiting quietly, heard footsteps approaching and turned his body.

Then, a tall man in a well-tailored suit walked in. He had a cold expression and an air of powerful, though not welcoming, presence that immediately struck him.

"Anything"

The Night Owl stood ten paces away from Mu Shaocheng, his slightly taller stature imposing an undeniable pressure upon him.

He slightly lowered his gaze, staring at the handsome man before him. In terms of appearance, height, or skill, the other man was inferior to him in every way.

He couldn't figure out why Lin Jinran would stay by his side. The more he looked, the more Ye Xiao felt that the person in front of him was incredibly annoying.

Lin Jinran had a past with him, and he suddenly felt uncomfortable. His cold expression grew even darker.

"I came here for Lin Jinran this time." Mu Shaocheng automatically ignored the hostility emanating from Ye Xiao.

If it weren't for Lin Jinyan, he would never have come to negotiate with Ye Xiao.

"Her affairs are none of your concern." Ye Xiao fiercely rejected Mu Shaocheng's proposal, domineeringly announcing, "She is my woman!"

Mu Shaochen's handsome face changed slightly, he didn't take a step back, "Night Owl, this is just your wishful thinking. Jin Yan has never chosen you, otherwise she wouldn't have escaped time and time again!"

His words hit Ye Xiao's pain point just right. Ye Xiao's already gloomy face seemed to be covered in a layer of frost, his voice cold and terrifying, "Mu Shaocheng, you came here just to argue about these things I tell you, time will prove who she truly belongs to!"

Hearing this, Mu Shaochen was startled and looked at Ye Xiao with a dubious expression. A thought vaguely crossed his mind.

Could it be that Ye Xiao recovered his memories

He became suspicious. If Ye Xiaojiu remembered, he should contact the Fu family.

But he hadn't heard from the Night Owl, perhaps he was just being paranoid.

Although Mu Shaocheng wasn't convinced by Ye Xiao's words, he knew that he had come today just to argue. He had important matters to attend to.

I have learned some clues about Jin Yan.

"What are you saying!" Ye Xiao's expression tightened, and he took a step forward urgently. "What did you find"

Mu Shaocheng didn't speak, but said instead, "I can tell you what I found out, but I have one condition."on every pocket 。Fu Tianze's small hands fiddled with the buttons, and he didn't seem to notice anything unusual about them. He stacked them one by one and put them all in the drawer. 。It's not that...
