The next day.

When Chu Mu woke up, he felt pain in his waist and back, and his legs felt like they were floating in the air, not his own.

When his feet touched the ground, Chu Mu's legs trembled.

dog man!

With such good physical strength, why don’t you become an athlete instead of a CEO?

Chu Mu scolded her from head to toe before getting up to wash up. She was going to meet a client at her studio today, so she changed into a simple white shirt and trousers, paired with a pair of red-soled high heels, looking very clean and capable.

Downstairs, the servants had prepared breakfast.

Chu Mu had breakfast at the villa as usual before leaving. A client had an appointment at lunchtime, so she went to the hospital to visit Qi Man first, and then went directly to the restaurant they had arranged to meet.

Shortly after she left Xishan Villa, Cao Minhui also came to Xishan Villa.

These days, she'd been asking Yi Yichen to accompany her. He'd always said he was busy with work and shirked her duties. This morning, she'd gotten up and skipped breakfast before heading straight to the villa. She'd wanted to see if he was really as busy as he said.

Chu Mu was probably plotting to entangle him. In the past, Yi Yichen was very obedient to her. But ever since Chu Mu came into his life, he had become indifferent to her.

The light in Yi Yichen's room was still on, so it seemed he was still at home.

Press the doorbell and the video phone will be connected inside the house.

Seeing the face on the screen, the housekeeper quickly opened the door and stood up to greet her. Whenever Cao Minhui was in China, she was basically with Yi Yichen. The housekeeper of the villa had been with Yi Yichen since childhood, so naturally he recognized her.

"Miss Cao, why are you here?"

Cao Minhui threw the car keys to him and went straight into the villa, asking, "Is Brother Yichen here?"

"Mr. Yi has gone to work. If Miss Cao needs to see him for something, please give him a call first." The housekeeper blocked her way, politely but with a hint of rejection.

"The lights on the second floor are still on, and you said he's not here?" Cao Minhui frowned, looking unhappy. Now even a housekeeper dared to stop her. These servants around Brother Yichen really needed to be properly disciplined. "What do you mean? You won't let me in!"

"Miss Cao, that's not what I meant." The butler bent even lower, but his refusal was even more explicit. Chu Mu had just left, and the house was filled with traces of her life. If Miss Chu and Yi Yichen's relationship were to be revealed outside the villa, he would be in trouble.

"The villa is Mr. Yi's private residence. I cannot bear the responsibility for letting you in without permission. I also hope that Miss Cao will understand and not make things difficult for us."

"It's not like I haven't been here before. Why are you not letting me in now?" Cao Minhui had never suffered such injustice before. She stood there angrily.

She looked at the housekeeper, her eyes motionless.

The butler nodded without saying a word, but he didn't show any intention of giving way.

Cao Minhui pushed him away angrily and rushed into the house, "Get out of here."

"Miss Cao." The housekeeper tried to stop her but failed.

She went straight to the room on the second floor, and the housekeeper immediately called Yi Yichen.

The person on the phone said casually, "Let her be."

After receiving Yi Yichen's order, the housekeeper no longer followed Cao Minhui and let the servants in the house go about their own business.

Cao Minhui, who was not stopped, ran to the second floor happily. She hadn't seen Yi Yichen for a few days. She missed him very much.

"Brother Yichen." Without even knocking on the door, she pushed open the door to the room on the second floor.

The room was empty, and the quilt on the bed had not been tidied up yet, with wrinkles piled up on the side.

It seems that the housekeeper did not lie to her, Brother Yichen really went to work.

Just as she was about to leave the room, she suddenly saw two pillows on the bed.
