The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

When Mu Ya'an woke up, she opened her eyes and saw the familiar white ceiling. Her face was unusually pale. Thinking of Reo rushing towards her, Mu Ya'an's heart sank.

She still doesn't have much feeling in her hands.

She slowly raised her hand and glanced to the side, only to see Gong Juncheng sitting beside her. When he woke up, he still didn't make any move, just sitting quietly to one side.

Mu Ya'an took a deep breath and struggled to get out of bed.

Gong Juncheng glanced indifferently at her hand and said coldly.

"If you still want your hand, you'd better lie down obediently right now."

Despite Gong Juncheng's cold tone, Mu Ya'an's expression remained unchanged. She calmly looked at Gong Juncheng and said in a deep voice.

Even if my hands are ruined, I won't ask you for compensation.

As she spoke, she glanced down at her arm, which was now wrapped in white gauze.

Upon hearing Mu Ya'an's words, Gong Juncheng's expression changed, and his deep eyes stared intently at Mu Ya'an, as if trying to see right through her.

Mu Ya'an was not afraid at all. She sat quietly on the bed and no longer looked at Gong Juncheng.

"I'll be waiting for you at the airport early tomorrow morning. You don't need to stay here now. I won't go back on my word."

She spoke softly, her voice trembling with emotion.

Gong Juncheng stared intently at Mu Ya'an, a mocking smile playing on his lips.

"You think I'm here guarding you because I'm worried you'll change your mind?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Ya'an looked at Gong Juncheng with a puzzled expression.

Otherwise, what other reason could he have to stay by her side?

She looked at Gong Juncheng and saw that his gaze was also on her. Their eyes met in the air.

Mu Ya'an's heart stirred slightly, a thought flashed through her mind, and her heartbeat quickened slightly.

However, just as she was still holding onto a sliver of hope, the man's gaze turned contemptuous, and he said coldly.

"I just want to ensure the quality of the products. After all, the members of 'Night Charm' are all wealthy and powerful people. If they are missing limbs, it will only affect the reputation of 'Night Charm'."

Mu Ya'an frowned upon hearing this.

Is this man treating her like a commodity now?

She took a deep breath, her eyes filled with resentment. She, the eldest daughter of the prestigious Mu family, had actually been reduced to a commodity.

Even if she was unwilling and wanted to resist, she had no strength whatsoever under the authority of this man.

She bit her lip, suppressing her deep-seated dissatisfaction, nodded gently, and said in a low voice.

"Mr. Gong, please rest assured, I will take good care of my injury during this time and try my best to make the buyer happy."

Upon hearing Mu Ya'an's words, Gong Juncheng's expression darkened slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in his deep eyes.

"It's good that you have this awareness."

He spoke coldly, his tone devoid of any emotion, his gaze fixed intently on Mu Ya'an, before saying indifferently.

“However, my travel plans have changed. I’m going to Beicheng today, so you have to come with me now.”

Mu Ya'an frowned.

Gong Juncheng did not give Mu Ya'an any chance to hesitate. He got up from his seat, walked slowly to her, and said in a deep voice.

“Come with me today, and your grandfather’s medical expenses will be discounted starting today.”

After he finished speaking, his assistant walked in from the door, holding Mu Ya'an's discharge papers. When he saw that Mu Ya'an had woken up, he moved his lips as if he wanted to say something, but he held back.

"Brother Juncheng..."

After him, Reina walked in.

She stood timidly at the door of Mu Ya'an's ward, like a child who had done something wrong.

When Mu Ya'an saw Reina walk in, he clenched his fist slightly and then released it.

Although Reina is young, the shrewdness she displays is something that most people cannot see.

Mu Ya'an had thought that Reina might be a little temperamental around Gong Juncheng.

But the evil side that Reina showed when she unleashed her dogs to bite her and prevented security personnel from rescuing her was quite surprising.

Even a young lady from a scholarly family is nothing special.

When Gong Juncheng saw Rui Na standing at the door of Mu Ya'an's ward, his expression remained unchanged. He stopped approaching Mu Ya'an, stood by the bed, and glanced coldly in the direction where Rui Na was.

Didn't I tell you not to come over?

Seeing Gong Juncheng's cold tone, Reina bit her lip, her face filled with deep guilt, and looked at Mu Ya'an sitting on the bed with worried eyes, whispering.

"I was just worried about Miss Mu, so I wanted to come and see her."

She spoke with a wronged expression, and her attitude of admitting her mistake was very sincere.

Mu Ya'an glanced at Reina indifferently, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes.

I don't know if Reina majored in film studies, but with acting skills like that, it would be a waste of her talent if she didn't become an actress.

"Miss Mu, are you alright?"

When Reina saw Mu Ya'an's gaze fall on her, looking at her with a mocking expression, she felt a little guilty.

But Mu Ya'an didn't see her actions at the time, so even if she suspected it was intentional, there was no evidence to prove that it was intentional.

She bit her lip lightly and carefully entered the ward.

Seeing her so cautious and timid, Mu Ya'an thought it was as if she were about to eat people.

"Thanks to Miss Reina, I'm still alive."

Upon hearing the sound, Reina lowered her head and looked in the direction where Gong Juncheng was, her expression aggrieved.

Gong Juncheng glanced indifferently at Rui Na, then said in a deep voice.

"I said, you go back first."

Reina then bit her lip and nodded, "Okay."

As she stepped out, she glanced at Mu Ya'an and then said softly.

"Miss Mu, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it. I didn't know Reo was so hostile towards you. I'll come see you another day."

Mu Ya'an raised an eyebrow as she listened to Reina's words and said calmly.

“Miss Reina, you don’t need to come another day. I will be going to Beicheng with Mr. Gong tonight.”

Mu Ya'an looked at Reina and said these words calmly.

She felt guilty towards Gong Juncheng, so she could be very humble when facing him.

However, she and Reina were complete strangers.

Although the Mu family is now in decline, it doesn't mean that just anyone can get away with messing around with her.

Having witnessed the coldness of human nature over the past two days, Mu Ya'an knew that constant tolerance would only embolden these people to take advantage of her.

Reina listened to Mu Ya'an's words with a look of disbelief on her face.

Despite their close relationship, Gong Juncheng never agreed to take her to Beicheng.

Despite the deep-seated grudges between the Mu and Gong families, Gong Juncheng still insisted on taking Mu Ya'an to the North City!

Suddenly, Reina felt a surge of resentment.
