Zhou Muchi took Lu Yan out of the hospital, but did not leave the vicinity of the hospital immediately, nor did they go to the hotel.

"Where are we going?" Lu Yan held the report in his hand and looked at Zhou Muchi beside him in confusion. After coming out of the hospital, this guy just led him forward without saying where he was going.

Zhou Muchi was silent for a while, and finally said, "I'll take you somewhere." After that, he quickened his pace, and Lu Yan could only hurry to catch up.

They crossed several streets and came to a shop called "Time Cafe". Zhou Muchi opened the door and motioned Lu Yan to go in.

Lu Yan looked at the cafe with some surprise. The interior was warmly decorated, with soft lighting and gentle music playing.

Zhou Muchi found a seat by the window and sat down, then ordered two cups of coffee and some snacks.

"You've been in the hospital for too long. Have some snacks first and then have dinner later." Zhou Muchi asked Lu Yan with a smile.

Lu Yan looked at Zhou Muchi with some surprise. He had clearly shown no favor towards him before, but now it felt weird.

I'm still not used to it.

Lu Yan nodded, still full of curiosity.

Coffee and snacks were served soon. Zhou Muchi stirred the coffee gently, his eyes becoming somewhat deep. Lu Yan sat quietly by the side, waiting for him to speak.

After a while, Zhou Muchi put down the spoon, raised his head, looked at Lu Yan seriously and said, "Actually, I've always wanted to say thank you to you. Although it happened suddenly last night, it's undeniable that you helped me a lot."

After hearing what Zhou Muchi said, Lu Yan couldn't help but feel relieved.

It turned out that Zhou Muchi brought him here to express his gratitude to him. He smiled and replied, "You're welcome. Actually, I didn't want to help you at that time."

As expected, as soon as Lu Yan finished speaking, Zhou Muchi's expression became a little stiff and he didn't know what to say.

"Don't want to help me? Then why do you..." Zhou Muchi couldn't help asking.

"Just think of it as being bored." Lu Yan shrugged, then picked up the coffee and took a sip.

Zhou Muchi smiled and said, "Anyway, I still want to thank you. If you need any help in the future, just let me know."

"Okay, then I won't be polite." Lu Yan also laughed, "Including the last incident, you owe me two favors, right?"

"Yes." Zhou Muchi nodded and replied, "I haven't forgotten."

At this moment, Lu Yan's cell phone suddenly rang. He took out his cell phone and saw that it was a call from the organizer of the last competition.

"Sorry, I have to take a call." Lu Yan stood up and walked outside the store to answer the phone.

Zhou Muchi looked at his back.

Zhou Muchi stared at Lu Yan's back, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

He began to realize that his gratitude to Lu Yan was not limited to this. This seemingly tough-talking man was actually quite easy to talk to.

After answering the phone, Lu Yan returned to his seat with an excited smile on his face.

"Is there a result for the competition?" Zhou Muchi guessed. His new future Lu Yan fell asleep last night, so he answered a call for him.

The other party said that he was the organizer of a certain competition, so after returning, he checked the competition and found out that Lu Yan won the championship.

Lu Yan nodded vigorously, "That's right, but how did you know?"

"I called you last night, but you didn't answer." Zhou Muchi said sincerely. He just glanced at it unintentionally and happened to see the number.

I just saw it last night, so I haven't forgotten it yet.

"Oh, okay." Lu Yan's tone was light and without any ups and downs.

Zhou Muchi felt Lu Yan's indifference and felt a little strange. Shouldn't he be happy? Why was his tone so calm?

"What's wrong?" Zhou Muchi asked, "What did the other party say?"

Yesterday, Zhou Muchi explained quickly and hung up the phone without saying anything, so he didn’t know what the other party said. Lu Yan’s face looked a little strange now.

Lu Yan was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "The organizer said there was something fishy going on in this competition. My championship was pre-determined, and they want to cancel my results."

Zhou Muchi frowned, "How could this happen? Didn't you win the game by your own strength?"

Lu Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I don't know either. Maybe someone is jealous of me..."

But Lu Yan obviously didn't show up in person, and he kept some time for himself in the competition. It would have been okay to slander him by saying that someone was playing for him, but they actually slandered him as being chosen internally.

Zhou Muchi patted Lu Yan on the shoulder and comforted him, "It's okay, there will always be a solution."

Lu Yan raised his head and looked at Zhou Muchi, with a strange look in his eyes, "There will be no solution."

Zhou Muchi looked at Lu Yan, "Of course there is. You just need to prove that you participated in the competition and that you have the ability."

Lu Yan didn't say anything, he was in a very bad mood, "Yeah."

The system just said that this competition is just a gimmick, and they just want to use their reputation to play this competition, so they set such a high prize money. No matter who wins the competition, they will not get the prize money.

Lu Yan already knew it clearly. It seemed that there was no other way. At most, he would not get the bonus.

"No need. If I can't get it, then I can't get it." After Lu Yan figured it out, he let out a breath.

Zhou Muchi frowned. He really didn't know how to answer this question.

"Trouble." Lu Yan said expressionlessly, then stood up, as if ready to leave.

"I won't have dinner. I'm going back to the hotel first." Lu Yan said calmly. There was not much emotion in his voice, but it could be felt that he was not in a happy mood at the moment.

Before Zhou Muchi could ask him to stay, Lu Yan had already stood up and left. From his back, it was obvious that he was in a bad mood at the moment.

In fact, Lu Yan was quite accepting of the situation. He thought that he didn't have much to lose since the fatal belly was already given out, so he just didn't have to worry about the bonus.

It's still acceptable.

"Just treat this as a simple trip." Lu Yan walked towards the six o'clock room where he lived.

Fortunately, the hotel is not far away, and it doesn’t take long to get there.

'Host, are you going back?'

Lu Yan nodded, "Well, I've been out for a few days, and there's someone at home, let's go back."

Thinking of this, he took out his cell phone and bought a ticket back tomorrow. After arriving at the hotel, Lu Yan prepared to check out early tomorrow morning.

I had originally planned to stay for two more days and wait until I got the bonus, but now I have to go back early.

"A trip in vain."

After Lu Yan left, Zhou Muchi immediately made a phone call and asked someone to investigate the competition and the organizer.

Judging from the other party's familiarity, it was obviously not his first time.
