Chapter 378: Femme Fatale
Chapter 378: Femme Fatale
Shui Chaoyu was the closest to Mu Anhan, he looked at her with a half-smile: "Beauties bring disaster!"
He spoke very softly, only Mu Anhan could hear.
Mu Anhan naturally understood what he meant. Pei Wei would definitely not fear Mu Anhan in any way, because she had neither power nor influence.
Pei Wei coveted Mu Anhan’s beauty, if she wasn’t a beauty bringing disaster, what was she?
Mu Anhan saw that he really disregarded his own danger to save her brother, so she did not argue with those words. Instead, she sincerely said, "Vice Marshal Shui, thank you for saving my brother!"
"I thought you didn’t care." Shui Chaoyu glanced at her indifferently.
That was before; indeed, she didn’t care about love or family, living day in and out like an insect without using her brain.
Now it’s different.
She cares about everything.
Mu Anhan didn’t want to talk idly about her concerns and feelings since others already had a deep-rooted impression of her.
What she needed to do was take practical actions.
"Brother, let’s get you back to check your health first." Mu Anhan shifted her gaze to Mu Chaohuan.
"Okay." Mu Chaohuan nodded.
"I’ll arrange it." Shui Chaoyu called someone to send him back to the Imperial City.
To be honest, when Mu Chaohuan returned, his emotions were extremely complex.
The one he wholeheartedly wanted to target, Gu Xiaozhan, turned out to be the one who saved him in the end.
Although it was Shui Chaoyu who saved him, he knew that Gu Xiaozhan must have planned it all in advance.
Now that Pei Wei covets Mu Anhan’s beauty, staying by Gu Xiaozhan’s side is still the safest, after all, only Gu Xiaozhan has the strength to contend with the Pei Family.
After saving the person, Shui Chaoyu ordered his subordinates, accompanied by a team, to go up to Sky Island and give it a thorough reform.
The excuse was that someone reported there were the three vices of gambling, drugs, and prostitution here, endangering social order.
They arrested some responsible figures and some officials and businessmen involved in prostitution, gambling, and drugs. Since Pei Wei was the actual controller of Sky Island but not the registered investor, Pei Wei had already slipped away on a yacht, leaving no evidence against him this time.
However, it harshly struck at his arrogance, confiscating a lot of his assets and leaving Pei Wei with a heavy loss.
Moreover, the reform is indefinite, cutting off Pei Wei’s financial pathways.
This place was simply a money pit, where everyone who came to enjoy would spend lavishly.
Over the years, Pei Wei had made a lot of money through Sky Island.
Now, it’s being openly closed for reform yet he is powerless.
Of course, he chalked this up to Gu Xiaozhan’s account again.
The matter of sealing off Sky Island was entrusted by Gu Xiaozhan to Shui Chaoyu.
He took Mu Anhan back onto the cruise ship.
The cruise ship sailed on the sea with the wind, Mu Anhan happily embraced his waist, she never expected that this cunning man not only arranged to save her brother but also severely hit Pei Wei’s finances.
"Husband, a hundred Pei Weis wouldn’t be a match for you!" Mu Anhan happily looked up at him.
Being praised by the woman he loved, Gu Xiaozhan naturally felt very happy.
"Thank you for saving my brother." Mu Anhan’s eyes sparkled brighter than the stars in the sky.
Gu Xiaozhan, however, asked her with deep meaning, "How do you plan to thank me?"
Mu Anhan stood on her tiptoes, gently pressed her soft red lips against his sensuous thin lips, a kiss from the depths of her heart.
This was a kiss filled with her love!
"Is that enough?" The man was not satisfied with just a kiss.
