Handsome CEO’s Darling Wife

Luo Yicheng agreed. "Fine, just be careful when you leave."

Mu Lan nodded. "I know. I'm going to sleep. Good night."

"Good night." Both of them hung up.

That night, Mu Lan couldn't sleep in excitement. While playing with the gold key, she kept thinking about reuniting with Mu Liang. "Hubby, I'm coming."

The next day, Luo Yicheng came to her place. He curtly spoke to her, "Give me the gold key."

Mu Lan unpacked the food. She asked, "Will you leave right away? I ordered breakfast for us. Why don't we eat together?"

Luo Yicheng hesitated before sitting down on the wooden chair.

Mu Lan asked, "Do you have any news about the underworld?"

"No." Luo Yicheng's answer was short. He didn't wish for her to be involved.

Mu Lan chewed chicken wonton and said, "I know you guys are hiding many things from me but let me tell you my thoughts. Big brother Xin's father General Ru wouldn't be involved in Operation R-O if there wasn't a powerful political figure behind it and that person has a strong connection with The Mongoose. That's what I think." She observed Luo Yicheng's expression while speaking.

However, he betrayed her trust. Luo Yicheng still had his poker face. He didn't show what he was thinking. He only said, "Hmm, I'll keep that in mind."

Mu Lan pursed her lips. She pointed her index finger at him and asked, "What does that mean? You clearly thought it through and I know you knew it before I did." She moved closer to him and whispered, "So, who do you think it is? I promise I won't tell anyone."

Luo Yicheng looked at her. Her eyes were full of curiosity. He reached out and out his hand on her head. Then and pushed her head downward and said, "Eat your meal."

No matter what she said, he kept silent about it. In the end, Mu Lan let go of her desire to find out the truth.

After breakfast, Luo Yicheng left with the gold key. Mu Lan bought her ticket and slowly packed her bag. She went to the capital of Jilin province, Changchun. Last time, Mu Liang came with her. Now she had to leave alone. In the airport, she took the boarding pass. The plane came in time. She booked a first-class seat for her. The air hostess showed her the way. The plane took off and the air hostess offered her food. It was already lunch time. She ordered seafood and red wine. The meal was served. She ate and watched the view of the sky. Since she had a tiring day yesterday and didn't sleep, she felt sleepy. She yawned and stretched her hands. She closed her eyes in peace.

A long time later, Mu Lan opened her eyes. She didn't know what time it was. She rubbed her eyes and looked at her watch. It was evening. She slept for six hours. It was a twelve hours trip. Six more hours left to reach Paris. She stretched her hands and looked outside the window. Seeing the scenery, she frowned.

The plane wasn't moving. It wasn't in the sky either. It was standing on the ground. Something was not right. Feeling that, Mu Lan sat up straight.

"You woke up at last. You sleep like a pig." Mu Lan heard a familiar voice. She slowly turned around to see the person. That person said, "Long time no see." That person's tone was full of resentment.

Mu Lan opened her mouth and slowly said, "Yes, it has been awhile, Li Shang."

Li Shang raised an eyebrow. "Oh, you remember me. After all those accidents, you haven't lost your memories at all. It looks like God favors you a lot."

Mu Lan smirked. "Yes, He does. Who doesn't love a good child?"

Li Shang narrowed his eyes. "Don't test my temper."

Mu Lan almost laughed. "Test? You? Do you think I have lots of free time? Even if I had, I wouldn't waste them on you." She neglected his ugly expression. She looked around and saw no passengers. "Did you hire the whole plane? Where are all the passengers?"

Li Shang narrowed his eyes. "The passengers are all my lackies. You came all the way in my territory, how can I let you go without giving you warm hospitality?"

Mu Lan frowned. "No one wants it from you. Get lost."

She really let her guard down. She shouldn't have traveled by plane. But if she didn't, it would be suspicious if anyone noticed that she was present in both countries. By passport she would be present in China but she would be seen in Paris, people would doubt her if they discovered it. Now, she couldn't do anything about her mistake.

Li Shang tilted his head. "You are as impudent as ever. Do you know? I hate you to the core."

Without changing her expression, Mu Lan tried to think if she had a past with Li Shang. She couldn't remember anything. Even when she went to Li Family's main house with Li Shen, she met Li Shang. He didn't show any unusual behavior back then. He also talked to her normally. She couldn't guess why he would dislike her.

Mu Lan said, "I don't particularly care what you feel for me. It's not that I can give you my feeling in return. But I'm curious to know why you hate me. I don't remember biting your tail."

Li Shang narrowed his eyes. "Oh, don't worry about it. You will surely find out sooner or later. Why don't you come with me now?"

Mu Lan smiled coldly. "What if I refuse?"

Li Shang chuckled. "I have guessed that you would say something like this. That's why I prepared something for you so that you don't want to leave." He took a black laptop from the seat beside him and opened it. He turned the laptop towards her.

Mu Lan looked at the screen and froze. On the screen, there was a woman who was sitting in a library and reading books without care. There was a red rod on her head. It was a sniper lens.
