"Let them hold still!"

The boss sat alone on a grand sofa, raised his hand, and instructed the people behind him coldly while staring downstairs.

The staff behind him immediately conveyed the boss’s orders to the subordinates on the first floor.

And Mu Yichen finally spotted his beloved wife in the dance floor.

Qin Mu was about to go crazy, raising her hands high, swaying her body with the music, shaking her long hair, and mimicking others by screaming along with the music.

Mu Yichen’s brow furrowed deeply in disbelief at what he was witnessing.

Qin Mingzhu and Mu Qingxin were very excited initially, but they got even crazier under Qin Mu’s influence.

The three of them almost became the center of focus on the dance floor.

Even though all three were married with children, each of them was so graceful, looking like college students.

A blaze of fire surged in Mu Yichen’s heart, growing more intense as he strode inside.

The people upstairs also watched him, Xiang Hang observed the surroundings, not appearing before Mu Yichen, but keeping an eye on those prepared to take action against Mu Yichen. He would rush over if anyone dared to make a move.

Qin Mu was still going wild when her wrist was suddenly grasped, and it was a forceful grip that made her instinctively turn her head, her previously scattered gaze gradually focusing, finally.

"Mu Yichen!"

She murmured softly, as if waking from a dream, returning to reality.

The people around were still moving, except she, Qin Mingzhu, and Mu Qingxin suddenly stopped. Mu Qingxin saw her brother’s stormy face and knew trouble was brewing, so she quickly signaled Qin Mingzhu, and the two escaped quietly, hand in hand, but Qin Mu was still tightly held by him.

"Come with me!"

Mu Yichen noticed the two sneaking away, but he had no time to bother with them now, pulling Qin Mu and heading out.

Just as he turned around, he heard a burst of laughter, making him even more displeased.

"Young Master Yichen, I saw someone like you from upstairs, and it really is you, along with your wife. My humble place is truly honored today."

The boss suddenly approached, followed by several subordinates.

Mu Yichen slightly lowered his eyes, and as the man extended his hand for a handshake, Mu Yichen merely gave a faint smile, "Mr. Ning, you’re too kind. However, I’m not in the position to chat today; let’s connect some other time."

After speaking, Mu Yichen dragged Qin Mu away.

"Ah! Young Master Yichen, leaving in such a hurry? Since you’re here, why not stay for a few drinks with us? I assume a woman like Mrs. Mu, who’s seen much of the world, can surely sip a few drinks!"

The boss chuckled as he engaged in conversation with them, his facial expressions perfectly matching his words.

"Sorry, my wife doesn’t drink!"

Mu Yichen said, glancing to the side, and sure enough, Xiang Hang was already approaching him.

Mu Yichen nodded politely to the boss and then proceeded to drag Qin Mu out, recalling that he was followed by a group of lackeys as soon as he arrived, making him doubt that the boss was any good.

"Mr. Ning, your goodwill is gratefully acknowledged by Young Master Yichen!"

As Mr. Ning turned around to have someone stop Mu Yichen, Xiang Hang suddenly appeared in front of him, naturally extending his arms in a polite gesture.

Seeing him, Mr. Ning couldn’t help but wrinkle his brow and then sneered softly, "Xiang Hang?"

"Present, Xiang Hang!"

Xiang Hang greeted him without any temper.

"Alright! Since Young Master Yichen is not available today, we can always chat another day; there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Mr. Ning said, signaling his subordinates before turning back towards the upstairs direction.

The breath Xiang Hang had been holding in was finally released as he watched everyone leave. Only then did he turn and run outside—it was a genuine run, instinctively wanting to stick close to Qin Mu.

But upon Mu Yichen taking Qin Mu into the car, Xiang Hang ran over, and Mu Yichen rolled down the window to say, "Stay and take care of Mu Qingxin and Qin Mingzhu. Ensure they get home safely."

"Yes!"

Xiang Hang hesitated but then immediately nodded.

"I’ll send them a WeChat message right away; they’ll come out soon."

Seeing Xiang Hang’s concern, Qin Mu softly reassured him, and Xiang Hang nodded as they drove away.

——

It’s a dark and windy night, in the backyard of the Mu Family residence.

Inside the expensive car, in the spacious interior, under dim lighting.

"Isn’t Mrs. Mu quite the player? What’s wrong? Can’t keep up now?"

"Did you hurry to take me away, leaving Xiang Hang behind, just for this?"

Qin Mu asked him with curiosity, though her voice was somewhat hoarse, her eyes still held her usual determination.
