Chapter 37 - Inexplicable Visits

After the two of them returned home, they sat on the floor of the entrance, unwilling to get up. Neither of them wanted to talk. Today had been a long day.

After a long while, An Ningyuan got up first, "I'll use the toilet first, I'm going to take a bath."

"Yes." Mu Yi Chu feebly replied before taking off his jacket.

Almost with every movement, he would drop a pile of dirt. Mu Yi Chu looked at the clothes he had taken off his body in disgust. He directly threw it into the trash can. Then, he looked at the chain of ashes that she and An Ningyuan had left behind on the floor, and sighed weakly. Those who didn't know what was going on would think that the two of them had just crawled out from the mound.

By the time the two of them had cleaned themselves up and cleaned up the floor, it was already past 9 PM. The two of them were too lazy to move, so they poured two bowls of instant noodles and went over.

An Ningyuan opened the refrigerator and took out some milk, then poured a cup of bedtime milk for herself and Mu Yi Chu.

"Are you better?" Mu Yi asked from the wall.

"Yes." It's all right. "I'm used to it." An Ningyuan replied indifferently. Although his expression was still ugly, at least he was not considered scary.

"Is that why you can't have children?" Mu Yi Chu took the milk that An Ningyuan passed to him and asked.

"Yes."

"Talk?" Mu Yi Chu finished the cup of milk in one gulp, licked the milk stains on his lips and said.

"Alright." After An Ningyuan washed the two cups clean, the two of them went into Mu Yi Chu's room tacitly.

They were lying side by side on the bed, leaning against the headboard, each with a cigarette in his mouth. Smoke is a good thing, like money. One to make himself comfortable, the other to make others happy.

"How did you (today) get there?" Mu Yi Chu and An Ningyuan both smoked their cigarettes in silence for a good while before they simultaneously asked the same question.

They both laughed at the same time.

"Heh, such tacit understanding." Mu Yi Chu's tone was slightly sarcastic.

They smoked their cigarettes again in silence. Within Swallowing Cloud, the expressions on both of their faces were very unsettled.

"Lady First, you first." Mu Yi Chu said.

An Ningyuan slowly said after exhaling the smoke silently.

"My divorce was a few years ago, because I couldn't have children."

When Mu Yi Chu heard An Ningyuan's words, he knew that it was another long story. Why are women always so sloppy in their speech and talking nonsense? He didn't like to hear nonsense, but he knew better than to interrupt her.

"After I finished dealing with my domestic affairs, I quickly emigrated to the United States. At that time, I was quite gloomy. But perhaps it was the Goddess of Fate who sent me an angel. She was really beautiful. It was the first time I shared a lecture in psychology in the United States, and it was pretty awkward, but at the end of it a girl named Cinderella came to me. "

Mu Ichu listened to An Ningyuan talking while puffing smoke. When he heard Cinderella, he suddenly had a reaction. The frequency with which this Cinderella was mentioned in An Ningyuan's name was too high, which made Mu Yichu have to pay attention to it.

"She looks a little shy, white, and sweet when she smiles, with my dark hair and eyes. I was very fond of her at the time, and I remember very clearly that she asked me in a not very fluent Chinese, 'Aunt, are you from H City of China?' and when I nodded to her, she threw herself at me. " An Ningyuan said, his face revealing a gentle smile.

"After that, we kept in touch, ate and ate together, and traveled on short trips, just like all mothers and daughters do. It made me happy. Every time Cinderella calls me "Aunt," I feel like I really have a daughter. She asked me a lot about H City. I once asked her why she always talked to me in Chinese. "

"Her expression went from excited to dull. Tell me, 'She used to come from there.'" She didn't go on, and I didn't ask. "Because I don't give a damn about her past. I just like her always being around me like that."

Mu Yi Chu frowned, he was a little uncomfortable, but when he thought about the family relationship that He He Ze sent to him, a question surfaced in his mind.

"One night, she suddenly came to my house. It was raining heavily, and when I opened the door, I saw that she was terrified. Even though she was wearing a raincoat, her hair was still wet. I quickly pulled her into the house and bathed her. When I was shaving her hair, she suddenly turned around and hugged me and sobbed. "

"I'm really heartbroken. I held her face and repeatedly asked her what was wrong. You know, she's my heart's flesh, I'm willing to keep spoiling her and love her. I really didn't know what to do when she looked up at me with tears streaming down her face. She cried and said, 'He's dead!'

Mu Yi Chu opened his mouth, but before he could understand the question from before, he was shocked. Who was the one that died now? He was about to blurt it out when he was filled with questions.

Cinderella is Bai Zhongning? No, it's Bai Zhongyi?

But didn't she die of a medical accident when she was undergoing the split surgery?

He's dead? Who is he?

Just as Mu Yi Chu was about to ask, a bell suddenly rang from outside Mu Yi Chu's bedroom.

Mu Yi Chu and An Ningyuan's bodies tensed up immediately. They looked at each other suspiciously but did not move. But he couldn't stand the sound of the doorbell, which continued to prick at his ears and nerves. Mu Yi Chu lifted the blanket and got off the bed. An Ningyuan followed closely behind.

Mu Yi Chu didn't open the door directly. Instead, he pressed the "Conversation" button towards the bell sensor by the wall. With an unfriendly tone, he asked, "Who?"

The screen showed the scene outside the door. A man with his head down raised it up and said to the camera on the door, "Police, Huang Jue."

Officer Huang? Why is he looking for me so late at night? From the looks of it, he seemed to have come with ill intentions. Mu Yi Chu opened the door subtly.

Huang Jue stood in front of Mu Yi Chu, looking exhausted, as if he had just been squeezed dry. That face looked even worse than when they met at Police station. He had a pretty good foundation, yet he actually made Mu Yi Chu so slovenly. Mu Yi Chu realized that he couldn't help but complain every time he faced Huang Jue.

"You," Huang Jue first faced Mu Yichu with a stiff tone, then suddenly caught a glimpse of An Ningyuan's face that peeked out from behind Mu Yi Chu, and stared blankly at him for a few seconds before saying, "Why are you here too?"

"You guys can do it, I can stop by just in time."

Seeing that the two of them were still in a daze, Huang Wen put away his doubtful expression and pointed at Mu Yi Chu and An Ningyuan, saying in a serious tone: "You, and you, the two of you follow me to Police station."

Mu Yi Chu was stupefied, he turned to look at An Ningyuan, who was equally shocked and did not understand the situation.

What was going on? What happened? Had he been involved in something? Or was An Ningyuan stirring up trouble? And what made the police come to arrest people so late at night? Him and An Ningyuan?

Mu Yi Chu's mind was a mess. The veins in his temples throbbed as he felt that his head was constantly expanding. It was about to explode into pieces.

After a burst of intense pain and a blinding white space, Mu Yi Chu fell down heavily.

Before he lost consciousness, he could vaguely see An Ningyuan and Huang Jue calling his name with their mouths wide open, panicking as they walked towards him.

It was more than two hours before Mu Yi Chu tried to open his heavy eyelids. He looked from the ceiling to the decanter hanging upside down, then down the tube to his arm and realized he was in the hospital.

F * ck! Mu Yi Chu couldn't help but curse. Why did he run to the hospital so frequently this year? It was really enough!

Mu Yi Chu rolled his eyes and turned his head. Through the window, he saw An Ningyuan and Huang Jue chatting on chairs in the long corridor.

An Ningyuan noticed the gaze of Mu Yi Chu, and immediately stood up, followed by Huang Jue.

"You're awake?" An Ningyuan opened the door and walked in. Mu Yi Chu saw that her expression was not good, other than exhaustion, there was something else that was hard to describe.

Mu Yi Chu stood up and wanted to sit up, but An Ningyuan immediately rushed over to help him.

"His physical fitness is so poor. He fainted just like that. No matter what, he is still such a big man. Do you know how hard it is for me to carry him? I haven't slept in two days and I'm not as weak as you. " Huang Jue smacked his lips and muttered, clearly trying to keep his spirits up.

Huang Jue rubbed his eyes with his thumb and forefinger and said tiredly, "Ahhh, I really want to pass out and sleep in the hospital for a few hours at a time before waking up."

Mu Yi Chu rolled his eyes. He spoke as if he wanted to faint. He felt pain in his back and waist. It was unknown if it was from the building or when he was being moved by Huang Jue when he was unconscious.

After Mu Yi Chu drank a mouthful of the water that An Ningyuan gave him to ease his throat, he turned to An Ningyuan and Huang Jue and asked, "What were you two talking about just now?"

"Officer Huang said that someone reported's disappearance today." An Ningyuan looked at Huang Jue and said to Mu Yichu, his entire face did not seem to be any better than Mu Yichu's pale white face.

"Qin Ranpei? What does that have to do with us? " Mu Yi Chu frowned as he looked at An Ningyuan. He did not understand why Bai Zhongning's mother had disappeared to find him and An Ningyuan. How ridiculous it must be to find them. Did the police think they had kidnapped her?

"When we went to her house to investigate, we found that the building where she lived had been completely demolished. I happened to see you and recognize you when I was checking the security footage from the hotel. You guys came out of that alley covered in dust. You must have come out from that building. "

Huang Jue placed the pen behind his ear and turned to Mu Yichu. "Tell me, what are you two doing there?"
