Su Yunxi's throat was injured, so she only ate light liquid food. She should be fine after a few days of rest.

But she couldn't go see Ye Wanrou, for fear that she would ask how she got injured and she would be suspected of domestic violence by Mu Shiyan.

Mu Shiyan returned to the bedroom and saw Su Yunxi's angry expression, "Don't act on your own in the future."

Su Yunxi nodded obediently, "Okay."

Mu Shiyan frowned, as if he didn't want to say anything to her anymore. He went downstairs to have breakfast and then went to the study.

He contacted Mu Shi'an, who didn't refuse the call. He asked in a clear and teasing voice, "Why did my cousin contact me suddenly?"

Mu Shiyan sneered, "Don't pretend with me. Are you surprised to hear my voice? It's a pity you didn't kill me last night!"

Mu Shi'an pretended to be confused, "What is my cousin saying? I don't understand! Last night, what happened last night?"

Mu Shiyan said impatiently: "Your people are in my hands, I will hand them over to Grandpa! Mu Shian, the car accident I had before was also your fault, right?"

Mu Shi'an laughed out loud, "My cousin is so suspicious. You always suspect me when something happens to you. Isn't it unfair for me? If I had such a great ability, you would have died countless times!"

Mu Shiyan's words were unclear and he said coldly, "Really?"

Mu Shi'an asked curiously, "Just now my cousin said something happened last night and he was almost killed? What happened?"

His interested concern was more like gloating or regret.

Mu Shiyan said calmly: "Mu Shian, it's pointless to pretend anymore. You missed the opportunity last night, and I'm afraid you won't have many chances in the future."

Mu Shi'an knew that he had failed last night as soon as he heard his voice, but he still didn't understand where the problem lay.

He said with concern: "No matter what happens, cousin is lucky and will always escape from disaster. I hope you will be fine in the future!"

Mu Shiyan didn't respond. After hanging up, he threw the phone on the table.

He had been investigating the car accident, focusing on Mu Shi'an, but he had wiped it clean and didn't find any clues.

What happened last night was enough to prove that it was Mu Shi'an who did it. Lei Ming wanted to use this opportunity to find a breakthrough in the car accident.

Just looking at the two incidents, the previous car accident was not Mu Shian's style.

So clean and neat, without any trace.

It was as if there was another hand that they could not see, secretly controlling everything.

……

Two days later, Su Yunxi had almost recovered.

Although she and Mu Shiyan slept in the same bed these two days, they spoke very little.

The man looked at her with a sullen expression and ignored her, while she had a sore throat and didn't want to talk.

So much so that everyone in the villa noticed that something was wrong between the two of them, as if they were arguing or in a cold war.

Su Yunxi inquired about Mu Shian's news and went straight to where he was.

When Mu Shi'an saw her, he showed a surprised expression, "Miss Su, what a coincidence?"

Su Yunxi said sinisterly, "Unfortunately, I came here specially to find you."

At the place where the two of them had met before, Mu Shian was sitting in the pavilion drinking tea and listening to music.

It is said that he often came here during this period and fell in love with the woman who sang the song, and they were very close.

Mu Shi'an raised his eyebrows, his handsome face frivolously and wantonly, "Oh? Looking for me? Aren't you afraid that your cousin will be jealous?"

Su Yunxi picked up the teacup in front of him and quickly and ruthlessly splashed the tea on his face.

Mu Shian, "..."

Fortunately, the tea was not too hot after being left for a while, otherwise it would have been scalded or blisters would have formed.

Mu Shi'an took a tissue and slowly wiped the tea off his face. "You came to me just to throw water on me?"

Su Yunxi stroked the white porcelain cup in her hand, the corner of her lips twitching slightly, and the next second, the cup brushed against Mu Shian's forehead and fell to the ground, breaking into pieces.

"What a pity! Such a quick reaction!" Su Yunxi's face was full of regret.

Mu Shi'an's forehead was red from being hit, and when his fingers touched it, he gasped in pain, "That was pretty cruel!"

He was accompanied by a bodyguard, but after taking only two steps forward, he was prompted by Mu Shi'an's eyes and retreated.

"Throwing a glass of water on you and hitting you is considered cruel? I almost died at the hands of your people two days ago," Su Yunxi looked at him coldly.

Mu Shi'an leaned lazily against the back of the chair, "You are standing here alive, talking about whether you will die or not."

"You want to deal with Mu Shiyan, and I'll help you in exchange for our interests, but you want to kill me?" Su Yunxi's expression was filled with undisguised anger.

The two people arranged by Mu Shi'an were in Mu Shiyan's hands and were not handed over to the old man as he said.

But he had no idea what happened that night.

Mu Shi'an asked thoughtfully, "What happened that night? Didn't you arrange everything? How did Mu Shiyan find out?"

"He didn't trust me in the first place. Even if he let his guard down and let me trick him, the people around him, under his instructions, would definitely keep a close eye on my every move."

Su Yunxi sneered, "You thought your plan was perfect, but it was actually full of loopholes. Now it's causing me to lose all trust in him."

Mu Shi'an secretly observed whether what she said was true or false, and smiled, "You are so smart, you must have pushed the matter to me at the first time to clear yourself!"

Su Yunxi took it for granted, "It's obvious that you and him are at loggerheads. We've been together day and night, battling wits and courage, and being cautious every day. The little trust we've built up with great difficulty, if it's all gone, wouldn't it all be wasted?"

Mu Shi'an heard that major brands sent new models of the season to Jingshui Bay Villa, and Mu Shiyan was very generous to the new Mrs. Mu.

If you don't care about happiness, why do such things?

That's why Mu Shi'an wanted to cooperate with Su Yunxi. This time, he wanted to deal with Mu Shiyan and test Su Yunxi.

If Su Yunxi cooperates with him, there is a possibility that the two of them will continue to work together. After all, she is now the closest person to Mu Shiyan.

Mu Shi'an asked excitedly, "So he believed you?"

Su Yunxi, "Half-believing, half-doubting."

Mu Shian understood, "He is a very suspicious person, especially towards the people around him. He is afraid that someone will harm him."

Su Yunxi, "You don't have to beat around the bush and scold him. When you dealt with Mu Shiyan that night, did you also want to kill me and then push everything onto me and let me take the blame?"

Mu Shi'an smiled gently and friendly, "No, I'm not the kind of person you're talking about."

Su Yunxi's face was filled with sarcasm, "It's not easy for a sinister villain to clear his name."

Mu Shian, "..."

Su Yunxi was not interested in talking to him anymore. "Mu Shi'an, our deal is over. Don't look for me again."

She turned and left, her back looking lonely and proud.

Mu Shi'an raised his eyebrows, the injury on his forehead affected him, and his smile became slightly distorted.

Su Yunxi walked through the moon-shaped gate and came towards a young girl in a white dress.

The other person was not tall and his body was slender and weak, as if he would fall down if the wind blew.

She has a small oval face, fair and pretty complexion, long hair, and is gentle and quiet.

She was also looking at Su Yunxi, a hint of surprise flashed across her face, and then she smiled politely as if greeting a stranger.

Su Yunxi returned the same smile, and the two passed each other, one looking inward and the other looking outward.

After walking a long way, the girl looked back at Su Yunxi, bit her lip, and continued walking. She crossed the corridor and saw the man sitting in the pavilion.

"Second Young Master," the girl said softly as she entered the pavilion, "Miss Su is here to see you?"

"Shuangxue, you're here!" Mu Shi'an twisted his fingers and smiled, "She married Mu Shiyan and is my cousin's wife."

"Why did you meet?" Cheng Shuangxue stared at him with her clear black eyes and asked curiously.
