Reborn Fairy Wife Takes Me on a Gaggle-Fire rampage

Chapter 157 Mu Chen Returns to Splendid Island

As time went by, the woman who always wore a mysterious mask became increasingly famous. Due to her unique appearance and superb skills, Su Yun's appearance fee skyrocketed. People were filled with curiosity and speculation about this masked woman, and rumors about her true face were rampant.

Some people thought she must be incredibly ugly, which was why she dared not show her true face; others believed it was just a publicity stunt she was creating; and of course, there were also those who firmly believed that her beautiful voice alone suggested she was a woman of both stunning beauty and exceptional talent. However, Su Yun remained completely unconcerned about all the conflicting opinions.

Today, Su Yun's residence remains relatively peaceful. Since obtaining this special job, she no longer needs to work hard at the coffee shop to earn money. Lately, aside from occasionally participating in treasure appraisal events, Su Yun has devoted most of her time and energy to dedicated cultivation. Amazingly, her cultivation progresses exceptionally rapidly; in a short period, she has already achieved the ability to freely ascend to the heavens, descend into the water, and traverse the world without any tools!

Time flies, and more than half a year has passed in a flash. One day, Su Yun, who was at home, suddenly felt that life was quite boring. So, she immediately packed her bags and prepared to embark on an unknown journey - to travel around and explore more of the world's beauty and surprises.

After a long and tiring journey, Su Yun finally arrived in T City. The moment she stepped onto this land, she was captivated by the breathtaking scenery before her. Green mountains and clear waters, blooming flowers—everything seemed so vibrant and full of life. Such enchanting natural beauty filled Su Yun with joy, and she even began to consider settling down here permanently.

Without hesitation, Su Yun quickly began inquiring about property prices in the area from locals. After researching and comparing various options, and carefully checking her bank account balance, she finally decided to buy a small and cozy courtyard house.

Since settling down in T City, Su Yun's life has become increasingly vibrant. She often ventures out of her home, strolling through the streets and alleys, experiencing the city's unique customs and culture. Gradually, she made a group of like-minded friends here. They would either enjoy tea and discuss philosophy together, or travel together to scenic spots, getting along very well.

With these new friends by her side, Su Yun's days were fulfilling and pleasant, as if all her troubles had left her behind. This entirely new life experience became one of the most precious and unforgettable memories of her life.

Mu Chen firmly believed that Wen Shu was still alive, and even though everyone told him to face reality, he never wavered in his belief. Since Wen Shu disappeared, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to finding her, as if it had become the only mission in his life.

His family and friends were heartbroken to see him grow increasingly haggard and tried to persuade him to let go of the past and start a new life. However, Mu Chen ignored their advice and continued to relentlessly pursue Wen Shu's whereabouts.

Over the years, he spared no expense in assembling a professional search team. They searched every possible location, from desolate mountains to remote corners, but they never found Wen Shu's body. This result ignited a glimmer of hope in Mu Chen's heart—perhaps Wen Shu was still alive somewhere in the world, waiting for him to rescue her.

Although those around him thought he had gone mad, refusing even a proper funeral for Wen Shu, Mu Chen didn't care what others thought. In his heart, as long as he hadn't seen Wen Shu's body, it couldn't be proven that she had left this world. Therefore, he would continue searching until the day he reunited with his beloved…

It was a bright and sunny day. Mu Chen and Cheng Xiao were sitting on the spacious and bright rooftop, discussing an important collaboration. At times, they discussed the contract terms seriously, and at other times, they exchanged their views in a relaxed manner. In this tense yet orderly atmosphere, somehow, the conversation unexpectedly shifted to everyday life.

With a smile on his face, Cheng Xiao slowly said, "A while ago, I accompanied my beloved wife back to her hometown, Jinxiu Island, to visit relatives. The scenery there is truly breathtaking and refreshing!" As he spoke, the beautiful scene of the blue sea, sky, green mountains, and clear waters appeared in his mind, and a look of intoxication unconsciously appeared on his face.

Hearing this, Mu Chen became interested and chimed in, "That's true, Jinxiu Island is a renowned tourist destination! However..." He paused, then continued thoughtfully, "Do you think it's possible that Wen Shu has also gone back there?"

The question struck Mu Chen like a bolt of lightning, startling him. He pondered silently. Yes, if she really had returned to Jinxiu Island, then this might be the perfect opportunity to find her! With that thought, Mu Chen didn't hesitate to pick up his phone and quickly booked a flight to Jinxiu Island.

Seeing Mu Chen's decisive actions, Cheng Xiao stood there stunned, momentarily at a loss for words. Before he could react, Mu Chen had already stood up, patted him on the shoulder, and said apologetically, "Brother Cheng, I'm really sorry, I'm afraid I can't continue to discuss the details of the cooperation with you this time. I have to hurry to Jinxiu Island to find some important clues. Let's reschedule for another day!" After saying that, Mu Chen strode out of the office like a gust of wind.

Watching Mu Chen's departing figure, Cheng Xiao shook his head helplessly and gave a bitter smile. There was nothing he could do; since Mu Chen had decided to leave, he could only pack up his documents and return dejectedly to his own company to continue dealing with the mountain of work.

When Mu Chen rushed to Jinxiu Island, the sun was already setting, and a magnificent sunset was spreading across the sky, enveloping the entire island in a hazy and mysterious atmosphere.

He walked briskly along the road he remembered, his heart filled with anticipation and trepidation. Finally, the familiar mansion came into view, its gates tightly shut, as if it had been asleep for a long time.

Mu Chen took a deep breath, slowly walked forward, and gently knocked on the door. "Knock knock knock..." The crisp knocking echoed in the silent air, but no one came to answer the door for a long time.

He stood quietly in the doorway, his gaze fixed on the door, carefully observing everything around him. To his surprise, there were no cobwebs tangled in front of the door, nor was there a speck of dust. This made him wonder: Could it be that Wen Shu had returned?

Thinking of this, Mu Chen's heart tightened suddenly, and a complex emotion welled up inside him. He didn't know whether he hoped the guess was true or false, and just stared blankly at the tightly closed door, his thoughts churning like a tide.
