Xu Youning’s face had returned to be ruddy.

Her pale face without vitality before she entered the bathroom seemed to be an illusion of Mu Sijue.

Mu Sijue stared at her and asked, “Did you vomit?”

Xu Youning did not react. “Why do you ask this?”

“Boyan told me that when Jian’an was pregnant, she would look pale after vomiting.” Mu Sijue asked stubbornly, “Did you vomit just now?”

Xu Youning finally understood, and then she was stunned.

She just looked a little pale, but Mu Sijue took it to heart and even called Lu Boyan to ask about it?

If Mu Sijue knew that she would not live long, what would he do?

Out of either a guilty conscience or self-accusation, Xu Youning avoided Mu Sijue’s gaze and said, “It’s normal… for a pregnant woman to vomit. Don’t worry, it’s nothing serious.”

Mu Sijue was misled by Xu Youning and thought that Xu Youning admitted that she had vomited just now. In addition, her face had recovered, so he no longer mentioned taking her for a checkup.

The room quieted down.

Xu Youning was not used to such strange silence. She asked Mu Sijue, “Do you want to take a shower?”

“No hurry.” Mu Sijue approached Xu Youning step by step. “Have you decided how to make it up to me?”

He was referring to what had happened in the study.

Xu Youning raised her head and indignantly looked straight into Mu Sijue’s eyes. “As the old saying goes, no debts without creditors and no hatred without cause. I’m not the person who took the initiative. Why should I make it up to you?”

The implication was that Mu Sijue himself set the fire, so it should be put out by him.

Mu Sijue knew why Xu Youning became bold. She was sure that he would not touch her after Aunt Zhou scolded him.

However, she would not have the “talisman” forever.

Mu Sijue laughed and warned Xu Youning with a faint smile, “Don’t overdo it. It only lasts three months.”

“Three months…”

Xu Youning remembered seeing the “common sense” that the fetus would gradually stabilize after the first trimester, and then it would be proper for a couple… to have sex.

Mu Sijue meant that she could only be bold for three months.

However, who knew? The remaining length of her life might be less than three months, but she was very curious—

“What about three months later?”

Mu Sijue raised the corner of his mouth and said, “We’re also in no hurry. Xu Youning, we still have a lifetime.”

Xu Youning almost bit her tongue. “Who said I was in a hurry? You are the one who is in a hurry!”

“Yea.” Mu Sijue actually did not deny it. He lowered his head, kissed Xu Youning’s ear with his thin lips, and said, “I really hope that I can get through these three months faster.”

Thus, he could see his and Xu Youning’s child sooner.

Before Xu Youning had time to understand Mu Sijue’s meaning, a wave of numbness had spread from her ears to her whole body. She feebly gave Mu Sijue a push and said, “Hurry up and take a shower.”

Mu Sijue was unexpectedly obedient. He took his clothes and walked into the bathroom. The sound of falling water came through the half-closed door.

Listening to the sound of the water, Xu Youning inexplicably thought of Mu Sijue’s naked body. She blushed and threw herself into the bed.

Mu Sijue’s physical shape was indeed very attractive, and it also felt good when she hugged him!

However, how could she fantasize about him!

Before Xu Youning calmed down, Mu Sijue had come out of the bathroom.

He was only wrapped in a bath towel, revealing his sexy abs and V lines, with his black hair dripping with water.

Occasionally, drops of water seeped into the bath towel tied to his waist along his muscle lines, which was incredibly sexy.

Xu Youning swallowed hard. Only then did she realize that when a man was sexy enough, he would also induce an urge to commit a crime.

Mu Sijue dried his hair, put on his pajamas, and lay down on the bed, only to find that Xu Youning’s face was a little red.

Having been with him for so long, Xu Youning had always been frank, as if she never needed to feel guilty or disguise herself, for everything she did was right.

She blushed a few times, but they all happened on some special occasions.

There was nothing special about the current occasion. Why was she blushing?

Mu Sijue held Xu Youning’s face and looked right at her. “What are you thinking about?”

Xu Youning tried to break free from Mu Sijue’s grip. “Sleep!”

Mu Sijue raised the corner of his mouth. “With whom?”

“Who… do you want to sleep with…”

Xu Youning almost jumped up. “Mu Sijue, you’re dirty!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Sijue’s held her in his arms. His powerful long legs pressed against her calves, making her unable to move.

“Don’t move.” Mu Sijue warned Xu Youning in a low voice. “Otherwise, what you just thought will become true.”

“…” Xu Youning did not doubt Mu Sijue’s words at all and quickly closed her eyes.

Strangely, she fell asleep quickly even though it was not comfortable to be held by Mu Sijue in such a posture. Also, she was a light sleeper and a dreamer, but she slept without dreaming until the next day.

When she woke up, the snow had stopped, and she could vaguely see a thick layer of snow outside.

Xu Youning liked snow. She removed Mu Sijue’s hand from her waist and ran to open the window.

The top of the mountain was covered with snow. The vast expanse of whiteness made her doubt that she had come to a world of ice and snow.

Xu Youning suddenly felt that it was not bad for her to be brought by Mu Sijue to the “wild”.

Mu Sijue was awakened by Xu Youning’s movements. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw her run to the window in ecstasy and then push the window open for the cold wind.

“Is she stupid?”

Mu Sijue took Xu Youning’s coat off the clothes stand and put it on her. Then, he closed the window and said, “It snows every year in City G. You’ve seen it since you were a child. Aren’t you tired of it?”

“You don’t understand.” Xu Youning said, “I won’t get tired of looking at beautiful things.”

Mu Sijue raised his eyebrows. “So you like staring at me?”

“…” Xu Youning was speechless for a moment. Then she suddenly thought of something and emphasized with a smile, “Mu Sijue, you’re a jerk!”

According to her tone alone, it was hard to tell whether Xu Youning was cursing or reminding Mu Sijue of this matter.

Mu Sijue narrowed his eyes and stared at Xu Youning dangerously.

Xu Youning did not want to suffer early in the morning. She patted Mu Sijue on the chest and said, “I mean, you are a man, a quite handsome man!”

Finally, the danger in the bottom of Mu Sijue’s eyes dissipated slowly. Xu Youning knew that she had escaped, so she breathed a sigh of relief and ran into the bathroom to brush her teeth.

Mu Sijue was busy outside for another day.

In the evening, the sun appeared unexpectedly, making the top of the snow-capped mountain warm. Xu Youning wanted to go out and bask in the sun.

Aunt Zhou saw that Xu Youning was eager to go out and told her, “Remember to put on more clothes when you go out, for fear of catching a cold.”

“Okay!”

Xu Youning put on her coat and ran out.

She wandered around and somehow came to the club entrance, just in time to see Mu Sijue walking into the club.

“Since Mu Sijue is back, why is he going to the club instead of going home?”

Inexplicably, Xu Youning was about to follow him inside but was stopped by bodyguards in black uniforms at the door.

The bodyguard carefully looked at Xu Youning with his X-ray eyes and said, “Miss, please show your membership, or reveal your identity.”

Xu Youning thought to herself, “It’s useless for me to reveal my identity. I’m not a member here. The bodyguards will probably arrest me, right?”

“Fight?”

According to the security forces here, once she made a move, more bodyguards would rush out to subdue her and send her to the manager’s office for interrogation.

“Should I mention Mu Sijue?”

Xu Youning was thinking about it when the waiter who had sent the parcel to Mu Sijue yesterday came out of the club and recognized Xu Youning at a glance.

It was a good chance. Xu Youning immediately said, “I came together with Mu Sijue.”

“Mr. Mu?” The bodyguard obviously did not believe it.

“I can prove it.” The waiter came over and whispered to the bodyguard, “She lives with Mr. Mu and seems to be Mr. Mu’s girlfriend.”

All the staff in the club knew about the relationship between Mu Sijue and Lu Boyan, so they regarded Mu Sijue as the VVVIP here. Mu Sijue would come and go alone every time. This time, everyone was surprised to hear that Mu Sijue lived with a woman in the nearby villa.

After Xu Youning passed the security check, the bodyguards finally let her in and asked, “Do you need us to help you contact Mr. Mu?”

“No,” Xu Youning said, “I know where he is.”

Xu Youning quickly ran into the club and soon saw Mu Sijue, who was walking toward the hall inside.

She followed him and saw several middle-aged men stand up to greet Mu Sijue. Mu Sijue shook hands with them and then sat down naturally. Then, a few tall and beautiful girls walked over.

Xu Youning was stunned and sat down behind Mu Sijue. Thus, she could see his back and hear what he was saying, but Mu Sijue could not find her.

Sure enough, before Mu Sijue and the others got down to business, those girls needed to come over for their entertainment.

“Amy, come and sit beside Mr. Mu.” A man, who seemed to be the manager of the club, waved at a girl. “Last time when Mr. Mu came, you didn’t make Mr. Mu satisfied. This time, you have to work harder to make Mr. Mu happy!”

Amy obediently sat beside Mu Sijue, with half of her bosom clinging to Mu Sijue’s arm. “Mr. Mu, it seems that you came here last time more than a month ago, you…”

Xu Youning did not hear what the girl said next, and she could only keep the phrase “more than one month ago” in her mind.

More than a month ago, Mu Sijue was in City A. He took Song Jiqing to treat Xiao Yunyun, met her in Xiao Yunyun’s ward, and then took her back.

At that time, Mu Sijue had been here and enjoyed the service of a waiter here?

Xu Youning suddenly stood up, and the waiter happened to see her again. He greeted, “Miss Xu, Mr. Mu is right in front of you. Didn’t you see him?”

When Mu Sijue looked back and saw Xu Youning not far behind him, he could not help frowning.

Xu Youning smiled and said, “Yes. Mr. Mu is busy, so I didn’t bother him.”

The waiter did not know why Xu Youning suddenly became so polite. “Well, fine.”

Xu Youning then looked at Mu Sijue and said respectfully, “Mr. Mu, you go on with your business. We can make another appointment later.”

She walked out of the club and shouted at the cold wind at the top of the mountain, “Bastard!”

Her voice soon disappeared in the wind, but Xu Youning did not feel much better.

She tightened her coat and walked back to the villa.
