Stardust in the Moonlight: Little Wildcat, Don't Try to Run Away

"Mr. Gong, you asked me to deliver some documents yesterday, but my car had some problems when I was on my way there... I'm sorry."

After the meeting, Assistant Dong followed Mo Chen.

Mo Chen glanced at Assistant Dong's limping steps. "Is it serious?"

"It's nothing, just a minor car accident. There was a slight problem with the brakes, but it won't affect my work."

Was the car involved in a problem at the company?

"Yes, it was fine when I drove it in this morning, but it suddenly broke down when I was about to deliver the documents to you," Assistant Dong recalled. "It was really strange."

Have you checked the surveillance footage?

"Hmm, I checked, no one has touched my car, it's possible the brake pads are worn out."

"Go check again in a bit to see if there was a cat in the parking lot yesterday."

"Huh?" Assistant Dong looked at Mo Chen with confusion, then saw Mo Chen's serious expression. "Oh, I'll check it in a bit."

hospital.

"Your due date is approaching, why don't you move to the hospital first?"

Grandpa looked at Rongyue, who was swaying and about to fall asleep.

“…I don’t like staying in the hospital, home is much more comfortable.” Rongyue replied, cursing Mo Chen in her heart. He had made her sleep so late last night that no one woke her up. She had to scramble to make food for her grandfather, but she had slept soundly last night without having any nightmares.

As Rongyue was thinking, she heard someone come in.

Several doctors came in, led by the grandfather's attending physician, to give the family instructions on the precautions for tomorrow's surgery.

When Rongyue saw Nangong Yunyi walking at the back, she smiled and waved to him.

Nangong Yunyi walked up to Rongyue and stood down.

The attending physician spoke with Gong Yixunran.

"Come out for a bit, I have something for you," Nangong Yunyi said softly to Rongyue.

Rongyue nodded.

When Rongyue stepped out of the ward, she saw Nangong Yunyi waiting at the door.

"What?" Rongyue looked at Nangong Yunyi.

Nangong Yunyi grabbed Rongyue's hand and casually put a very delicate wooden bracelet from his wrist onto Rongyue's wrist.

Rongyue looked at the bracelet on her wrist. The oily wooden beads were still warm. Each bead had an extremely delicate carving, and each one was different. The whole bracelet also emitted a fragrance, which was very similar to Nangong Yunyi's scent.

"You said a few days ago that Irene's illness was strange, and I went to see her later. It's definitely not a normal illness. It's just that she does have a heart condition, which is masking other problems. I don't have time to investigate the specifics in detail. Given your health condition, you shouldn't have any contact with her recently."

Rongyue frowned and listened carefully to Nangong Yunyi's words.

"The three Nangong family children you saved before have all woken up, but they can't remember what happened."

“Nan Siyan…did have contact with Liu Fengyi, just a week before your accident.”

Nangong Yunyi frowned as he looked at Rongyue.

Rongyue nodded. "Did she know Liu Fengyi before?"

"I haven't heard her mention it, but I haven't had much contact with Nan Siyan before. I only know that she values ​​profit, but she's a businesswoman, so it's normal."

"Have someone keep an eye on her, but it's best to do it discreetly so she doesn't find out."

Nangong Yunyi nodded. He looked at Rongyue, who was looking down, lost in thought.

"...Back then, I considered the complexities within the Nangong family, so I didn't pressure you to make a decision. I never expected that your great-grandmother would personally come to you and take over the Nangong family... It must have been quite a hardship..."

Rongyue looked up at Nangong Yunyi and sensed the apology in his eyes.

"It's alright. There are gains and losses... Besides, it's normal for there to be some unrest within the Nangong family since I'm someone who was parachuted in. Let's take it slow."

"Hey! Someone's calling for a nurse! Can't you hear me?"

Rongyue heard a familiar voice, turned around and saw Yilin standing not far away, looking at a nurse.

Upon hearing Irene's words, the nurse quickly lowered her head and hurriedly went into the nurses' station to turn off the call button, then walked in the opposite direction from Rongyue and the others.

Rongyue frowned. She thought she had just seen the nurse's face; it felt somewhat familiar.

"Rongyue!" Yilin walked towards Rongyue after seeing her.

Rongyue's attention turned to Yilin, and she noticed that Yilin's spirits had improved a lot, and her complexion had become much rosier.

"Isn't this Director Nan! I hope I'm not interrupting your conversation." Yilin smiled and looked at Nangong Yunyi.

"It's no trouble! You look much better now!" Rongyue turned to face Yilin.

"Hmm! I don't know if it's just psychological, but I've felt much better since I received this little trinket from you." Irene waved her phone, the phone charm dangling in front of Rongyue's eyes.

Rongyue glanced at Nangong Yunyi and realized that this was a gift from him.

"Then you'd better take it with you, don't lose it."

“Yes!” Irene nodded.

"Why are you all alone today?" In Rongyue's memory, Yilin and Yiming were always together.

"I'm feeling alright today. Yiming went to a meeting at the company and will be back in a bit. Where's your partner?"

"They're the same, they're both very busy people."

After hearing Rongyue's words, Yilin laughed and said, "I originally wanted to come out for some fresh air, but then I saw you. Perfect timing, thank you for giving me this. Looks like you're about to give birth."

"Yes, it's almost due, but it's still very stable and doesn't seem to be coming out yet."

"Congratulations in advance! I'll definitely give you and the little one a big red envelope later." Irene gently rubbed Rongyue's belly with her fingers.

"Thank you!"

"I won't bother you anymore. You must be tired from standing for so long. I'm going out for a walk."

Rongyue watched as Yilin walked into the elevator.

"Eileen seems to be doing alright; the things you gave her are quite effective."

Nangong Yunyi frowned. "It's only treating the symptoms, not the root cause."

"She's right. Don't stand for too long, go inside and rest. I'm going to work." Nangong Yunyi said and left.

Rongyue glanced at the bracelet on her wrist and went into the ward.

Mo Chen's office.

"Brother Mo Chen, this document..."

"This is the company." Mo Chen interrupted Nan Shitong, looking down at the documents in his hand without even glancing at Nan Shitong.

"Oh, Mr. Gong." Nan Shitong said somewhat aggrievedly, placing the documents on Mo Chen's desk and watching him sign them. She especially liked watching Mo Chen carefully read the contracts and, in particular, sign them with great seriousness.

"Is there anything else?" Mo Chen still didn't look up, his voice cold.

Nan Shitong snapped out of her daze and said, "President Gong, are you thirsty? Let me pour you a glass of water."

"What are you here for?"

"Huh?" Nan Shitong didn't understand for a moment.

"What are your job responsibilities?"

"Assistant!" Nan Shitong answered quickly.

"Whose assistant?"

“…” Nan Shitong hesitated for a moment, “Assistant Dong’s assistant.”

"Good to know, now get out!"

Hearing Mo Chen's indifferent voice, Nan Shitong's eyes welled up with tears. She almost bumped into Li Xin as she left the office.

"Tsk, what did you do to that young girl? You made her look so wronged!" Li Xin walked into the office and sat down with a look of amusement.

"I don't want her to bother Rongyue. Anyway, her target is me, so I might as well let her get there first. It's better for her to bother me than Rongyue, but... it's really annoying..."

Mo Chen threw down his pen, pulled out a cigarette, lit it, frowned, leaned back in his chair, and exhaled smoke. "Dealing with just this one is already a headache, let alone the entire Nangong family..."

"By getting involved yourself, are you helping or making things worse? Aren't you afraid Rongyue will really misunderstand?"

"Her!" Mo Chen chuckled. "She has too many things on her mind all day! She doesn't even care about me! I praised another woman in front of her, and she acted like she didn't hear a thing!"

Mo Chen exhaled a puff of smoke. "Tell me, do you really need her to worry about the problems she wants to solve? She can just tell me, and I can solve them for her! But she just won't! She's only thinking about these trivial things."

Li Xin looked at Mo Chen with a smile and said, "Why are you acting like a complaining woman?"

Mo Chen threw the cigarette in his hand at Li Xin.

Li Xin laughed as she took the cigarette, lit it, and said, "Wanting revenge for her parents and grandmother is a trivial matter? You don't care about your own career, you don't worry about the Nangong family, all you think about is her and all you think about is you! I've grown up with you for so long, how come I never realized you were so love-struck!"

"You have the energy to be jealous, so think more about how to help her! Don't forget you haven't married her yet! She's getting more and more popular! Especially with men who want to treat her well." Li Xin looked at Mo Chen with a smirk.

Mo Chen bit down hard on the cigarette in his mouth, then stubbed it out, took out his phone, opened a video, and tossed the phone to Li Xin.

Li Xin picked up Mo Chen's phone and looked at the video on it.

The video shows the company's underground parking lot. Li Xin was watching the still image on the screen when suddenly, a cat darted out from under a car.

Li Xin looked up at Mo Chen in confusion.

“That car belongs to Assistant Dong.” Mo Chen glanced at the phone in Li Xin’s hand.

"You suspect that the cat tampered with his car? Why?" Li Xin asked, puzzled.

"Of course, it's to create opportunities for certain people to see me."

Hearing Mo Chen's words, Li Xin chuckled and said, "Is it really necessary?"

"You've been with me for so long, let's not even talk about anything else, don't you know the power of my face!" Mo Chen smirked. "Just based on this alone, compared to other men, your brother here is far superior! I'll have Rong Yue completely under my thumb!"

Li Xin almost smashed her phone in Mo Chen's face.

Mo Chen felt a sense of satisfaction seeing Li Xin's disgust.

"The key point is that if you look closely at the cat's eyes, they are red." Mo Chen's tone became more serious.

Li Xin slowed down the video and looked at the cat in it carefully. Sure enough, it had red eyes, just as Mo Chen had said.

"I remember that the cats around Rongyue have different eye colors, but none of them are red... This cat isn't from the Nangong family?"

Mo Chen nodded. "Do you remember the cats we saw when we were looking for Rongyue and my parents in the jungle?"

"Of course I remember! Those cats were obviously not normal, their eyes were blood red..." Li Xin paused here, lowered his eyes to think for a moment, and then looked at Mo Chen with a clear look in his eyes.

"Someone recruited the remaining people of Nangong Jianing... This person's way of doing things is not only detrimental to Rongyue, but also so ruthless."

"Xia Xiluo".

The two people spoke at the same time, saying the same person.

“I have observed the people of the Nangong family. Only Nan Siyan has her ambition on her face. She wanted to suppress Rongyue but ended up being subdued by Rongyue instead. She not only failed to gain any advantage from Rongyue but also lost face. If anyone wants to undermine the Nangong family, Nan Siyan is a good breakthrough point.”

"So, you're afraid that the person outside might do something detrimental to Rongyue if she's with her... so you'd rather keep her by your side than let her stay with Rongyue." Li Xin looked at Mo Chen seriously.

Mo Chen nodded. "Moreover, my guess was correct. Liu Fengyi had never been in contact with the Nangong family before, so how could he appear there? Not only did he choose the right time, but he was also very familiar with the Nangong family's routes... Do you think it would be so easy to bring someone into the Nangong family if no one was in the middle to arrange things? Don't forget, the Nangong family is not ordinary. It would be absolutely impossible to bring someone in and trap them without some inside help."

Li Xin nodded with a serious expression.

"So Xia Xiluo has already been in contact with Nan Siyan." Li Xin put Mo Chen's phone on the table. He was a little annoyed, annoyed that these dangers always surrounded Rong Yue, and annoyed that he couldn't think of a good way to completely crush the Xia family and the Hao family.

"Or we could just pay someone to take care of these people! That would be cleaner and quicker, and save them from causing trouble in secret."

Looking at Li Xin's serious expression, Mo Chen smiled and said, "Now I truly understand what it means to have nothing to lose. If things really come to a head, I have too many weaknesses—elderly people to support and young children to raise. They have nothing. How could I dare to take the risk..."

"I'll do it! I'm single, and I refuse to believe it!"

Mo Chen scoffed, "Don't you dare! You're my only trustworthy brother! Don't be so reckless! Except for my wife, everything else is yours!"

This time, Li Xin really did throw the phone back at Mo Chen.

Mo Chen smiled and picked up his phone. "Stop fooling around. I'm done with work. I'm going to pick up my wife from the hospital."

“I’m not busy today, let’s go together. I’m going to see Grandpa.” Li Xin stood up.

The two walked out of the office.
