After my soul traveled through time and space, I became the male protagonist Bai Yueguang

The guests' attention was focused on the antiques being auctioned on the stage, but the unusual movements off the stage were even more noticeable.

Shen Zhao held her stomach, causing wrinkles on her dress that were difficult to smooth out. Her crow-feather-like eyelashes drooped to hide the pain in her eyes.

No matter how hard she tried to endure and hide it, she eventually succumbed to the sudden pain.

Shen Zhao raised her eyelids and glanced at the leftover food on the table. While Mu Yanchen was hugging her, he also focused his eyes on her food.

Seeing the sudden change, Situ Rui immediately rushed to Shen Zhao's side and scanned the scene with sharp eyes.

"Her food was tampered with."

A determined tone.

Mu Yanchen looked towards the direction where the waiter was collecting the leftovers and said coldly, "Keep the food on the table and take it for testing immediately, but I don't think anything will be found."

Situ Rui reacted immediately. According to Shen Zhao's rate of illness, the problematic food should have occurred in the dishes from appetizer to main course. But now it has reached the dessert stage, and the evidence has probably been destroyed. But he had to give it a try. What if he found it?

Situ Rui immediately ordered his people to go to the kitchen to check the dishes. With so many guests, was Shen Zhao the only target?

He glanced obscurely at Shen Zhao, who was holding her stomach and sweating in extreme pain. The answer was self-evident. But there were so many people around, and none of them knew her. Why did they suddenly attack her?

He looked around and finally set his sights on the tables of people under the stage.

When he turned his head, he met Mu Yanchen's angry eyes and paused for a moment. It had been a long time since he had seen Mu Yanchen express such emotions. But the emotions disappeared in an instant. Situ Rui thought it was his illusion, but the trembling of his body could not deceive anyone.

Shen Zhao climbed up Mu Yanchen's arm with trembling hands, like a drowning person grabbing a piece of driftwood floating on the water. It was a life-saving straw. Her five fingers grabbed hard, leaving obvious marks on his clothes.

But Mu Yanchen didn't care at all. He lowered his head and looked at her anxiously, "I'll take you to see a doctor!"

Just when his arm was about to rest on her knee, Shen Zhao stretched out his hand and reluctantly pushed him away. Her face turned red and she held her breath and said, "Don't... I want to go... to the bathroom. It should be fine after I go..."

"How does this work?"

Mu Yanchen didn't believe it was as simple as having a stomachache.

Shen Zhao raised her eyes. Her lips were pale with red bite marks on them, like red plum blossoms on the snow. She said weakly, "Really? I know my own... body... myself... well. Could it be that... their... medical skills are better than mine?"

In terms of medical skills, Mu Yanchen really could not refute Shen Zhao.

He pursed his lips, "Then I'll take you to the bathroom."

"Don't... worry, just... wait at the door, I... won't be in any trouble!"

She forced out the last sentence, but Mu Yanchen did not doubt it. He put one hand through her legs and held her back with the other, picked her up easily, and left the table in full view of everyone.

Song Si glanced at Mu Yanchen's departing back and said, "Yanchen is becoming less and less aware of the rules!"

Mu Guichao glanced at Song Si with a smile, then glanced at Jia Jia who ran out following Mu Yanchen's footsteps, "Young people are full of energy, it's okay to be a little unrestrained."

As he spoke, he took a sip of the wine. The aroma of the wine lingering between his teeth had a unique flavor.

"I'm afraid he'll be arrogant and a tough kid to keep!"

The person who spoke was Mu Yingfeng. Song Si glanced at him in astonishment. In just a moment, her eyes moved and she looked at his cloudy eyes affectionately. She put her well-maintained hand on the back of his hand and patted it gently from time to time.

"Master is right, but this is also my responsibility. I neglected to discipline him."

She spoke gently. Mu Yingfeng looked over with his cloudy eyes, but his pupils were clear. "How can it be your problem? He was taught badly outside. Look at what kind of women he brought back?"

Song Si lowered her eyes to hide her nausea. For so many years, she had been gentle and well-behaved in front of him. The reason why Mu Yingfeng handed over the business to her was because she was easy to control. She was just his spokesperson. In fact, everything that seemed to be her decision was approved by Mu Yingfeng behind the scenes.

Song Si was comforting Mu Yingfeng, while Mu Guichao said, "Father, don't be angry. I think that woman has some background. After all, my seventh brother is also a member of the Mu family. How can his vision be bad?"

Mu Guichao had an innocent smile on his face. He seemed harmless and it was easy for people to let down their guard.

Mu Yingfeng looked over with cloudy eyes.

Mu Guichao just smiled and said, "Just wait and see, maybe there will be some miraculous effects."

Mu Yanchen did not take Shen Zhao to the bathroom, but walked through the corridor to the lounge they had come to before, which had a separate bathroom. Mu Yanchen was not afraid that Shen Zhao would disappear, and he could wait for her outside the door with peace of mind.

Under Shen Zhao's embarrassed gaze, Mu Yanchen finally closed the door for her, "I'm right outside, call me immediately if you need anything!"

Shen Zhao nodded solemnly.

The door was closed, as if a barrier separating the two of them. For convenience, Mu Yanchen had someone prepare a set of casual clothes for Shen Zhao to change into after he finished.

Shen Zhao took off her dress and hung it on the hanger in the bathroom. Before she sat on the toilet to solve the problem, the pain in her stomach subsided surprisingly slowly. She changed into casual clothes and stared at her stomach that had changed strangely in confusion.

what happened?

Just as she was standing in front of the mirror with her head down, the door behind her suddenly opened silently, and a frighteningly white hand stretched out from the hidden and dark gap, holding a syringe with transparent liquid medicine hanging on the sharp needle, shining a chilling cold light under the dim yellow light of the bathroom.

When Shen Zhao raised her head again, her eyes were wide open. She looked at everything in the mirror in horror, but it was too late.

Her body was shaking, her mouth was open but no sound came out, in the bathroom where a pin drop could be heard, the only sounds that could be heard were "huh, huh" coming from her.

The hands reacted much faster than hers. One hand covered her mouth and nose with a rag, and the other hand had already inserted the needle into her jugular vein.

One second, two seconds...

Shen Zhao lowered her eyes and her whole body softened. Just before she collapsed to the ground, a pair of hands embraced her and took her into the endless darkness.

The walls returned to their original state, and everything was as if nothing had happened, except that the dress hanging in the bathroom was shining with a light blue luster.

Ten minutes passed, and Mu Yanchen stood outside the door without hearing any sound. He arranged everything as quickly as possible. He turned around and said, "Zhao Zhao, are you ready?"

He asked somewhat worriedly.

It was very quiet inside and no one answered.

Panic grew like a vine in Mu Yanchen's heart. He turned the door lock, and with a click, the door was locked from the inside!

An idea flashed through his mind, and he kicked the wooden door open. It was empty inside, with only the dress hanging quietly on the hanger, indicating that there had been traces of her here.

He looked at everything in the bathroom with bloodshot eyes and said to the intercom, "Situ Rui, Shen Zhao has disappeared!"
