Chapter 393 - 203. Nan Wan did not want to see the man lie and deceive her.
"Didn’t Madam tell you?" Aunt Zhou was very surprised, she thought the sir already knew, "Someone sent a box... of fake snakes, really scary, Madam’s face turned pale, didn’t eat a single bite of dinner."Just thinking of the scene at that time made all her body hair stand on end.
In just a few seconds, Mu Jin Huan’s deep eyes turned into a cold well seemingly filled with ice, "Where is the box placed?"
The intense menacing aura emanating from him was too strong, making Aunt Zhou shudder, "I was afraid Madam would come down at night for water and see it, so I placed it in the backyard, covered it with unused clothes..."
Before she finished speaking, Mu Jin Huan had already strode toward the backyard.
Aunt Zhou quickly followed, removed the clothes covering the box, and stepped back two steps in fear, "This is it."
The thickness of the box was twice that of an ordinary delivery box, just by looking at it, one couldn’t tell the things inside were slightly wriggling.
After Mu Jin Huan cut open the seal, those black things began to crawl out.
His sharply defined features took on a chilling coldness, resealing the box, he returned to the living room to wipe his fingers with a tissue.
After listening to Aunt Zhou recount the process of receiving the package yesterday evening in full, he took out his phone from his suit pants pocket and dialed a number.
His voice was imbued with an icy undertone, "Bring up the surveillance from the North Shore Villa District, verify the identity of each person entering and leaving the community, there’s a man around 1.7 meters tall, about 40 years old, slightly chubby, wearing a black hat, find this person as fast as possible."
Liu An’s brain wasn’t working well early in the morning, hearing everything in a fog.
But having been by Mu Jin Huan’s side, he had developed a quick reaction ability, holding the phone between his shoulder and ear, getting dressed while responding, "Okay, President Mu."
Aunt Zhou, once Mu Jin Huan finished the call, cautiously asked, "Sir, are you having breakfast at home?"
He seemed ready to go to work directly when he came downstairs just now.
The ominousness in Mu Jin Huan’s black eyes hadn’t faded, his deep-set features were cold and indifferent, he responded with a single syllable, "Mm."
No wonder she seemed off last night.
All the lights in the corridor were on, and when he came back, that small face wasn’t its usual gentle smile...
Aunt Zhou nodded and respectfully said, "Then I’ll go upstairs to wake Madam."
Hoping the sir finds the culprit soon, otherwise, it’s unsafe to remain on constant alert at home.
Mu Jin Huan’s deep eyes were still dark, and he took long strides toward upstairs, "I’ll go."
...
The curtains were completely drawn open, the sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows into the bedroom, a bit dazzling, Nan Wan murmured a sound, waking from sleep.
With bleary eyes, it took a while for her vision to clear, seeing the man bathed in sunlight, she frowned slightly and turned over.
Her voice carried the unique hoarseness of early morning, "You go to work, I don’t want to get up yet."
Mu Jin Huan moved to the side of the large bed, sitting on the edge, his long fingers moved gently, uncovering the woman’s small face from the quilt, inch by inch.
He lowered his head, planted a light good morning kiss on her forehead, his voice low and gentle, "I’m not in a hurry to go to the company, I can have breakfast with you."
After saying that, his thin lips did not withdraw, they slowly moved downwards, from the bridge of her nose to the corner of her lips, eventually lingering on those cherry-red lips, softly and lingeringly caressing.
Nan Wan kept her eyes closed, neither responding nor resisting, "Not hungry, you eat by yourself."
"Were you frightened?" Mu Jin Huan seemed unconcerned by the woman’s indifference, the hostility and darkness on him vanished entirely the moment he pushed open the bedroom door, his deep eyes warm and indulgent, "I will find that person."
If a box of fakes is delivered, then he might as well send back a box of real ones.
"You work until midnight to come back, doesn’t that important client need your accompaniment?" Nan Wan didn’t want to recall what she saw yesterday evening, her voice was faint, "I’ll eat by myself once I’m well-rested, you don’t waste your precious time on me."
He would know, Nan Wan wasn’t surprised, Aunt Zhou was also quite frightened and would always tell him.
Even if Aunt Zhou didn’t mention it, it doesn’t matter, she is not in a state of solitary and helplessness now, with Third Brother around, she would surely find that person.
The photos of Mu Jin Huan embracing another woman must certainly be taken by someone around them.
