Chapter 678: He's Sick
"It's nothing, just a little cold."
Li Chenxu is now very cautious around Mu Xiaoyu, even carefully considering his words, for fear of saying something wrong and upsetting Mu Xiaoyu.
However, it would be a miracle if Mu Xiaoyu believed him at a time like this.
"Where are you now?"
Mu Xiaoyu was too lazy to waste words with Li Chenxu, and she was planning to see him anyway. Seeing him sooner or later was the same; she didn't want Li Chenxu to cause her any trouble.
At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu's tone was already very firm, and Li Chenxu could easily tell. Knowing Mu Xiaoyu's temper, if he didn't speak up, their relationship might deteriorate further.
In the end, Li Chenxu honestly revealed where he was.
He wasn't staying at his own residence, but at a hotel. His assistant had also gone back, so now only Li Chenxu was at the hotel.
After asking Li Chenxu for the address of his hotel, Mu Xiaoyu changed her clothes, grabbed her first-aid kit, and prepared to leave.
Just as she was leaving her room, she bumped into Song Yin, who had just finished showering. Seeing that Song Yin looked like she was about to go out, Song Yin quickly grabbed her and asked, "Where are you going so late? Are you going to see Li Chenxu?"
Mu Xiaoyu did not deny it, and said directly, "He is alone in the hotel now and has a high fever. I'm going to go and check on him. If something happens to him at this time, it won't be good for me."
"Just send someone else. Don't you have Li Chenxu's assistant's phone number? Tell them to handle it. It's so late. If you go there and make a fuss, you won't have much time left."
Song Yin was worried about Mu Xiaoyu going there at this time and wanted to persuade her to give up.
However, Mu Xiaoyu was also a stubborn person. Upon hearing this, she shook her head directly: "I have to go by myself. If something goes wrong again, perhaps Li Chenxu and I will really be finished."
Having said all that, Song Yin finally understood that Mu Xiaoyu had never intended to give up on Li Chenxu.
She knew there was no point in saying anything more to Mu Xiaoyu, so she could only look at her helplessly and say, "Then wait a moment, I'll call Gu Yeqi and ask him to come and pick us up."
"No need, I'll have Chen Tong come over. She lives nearby."
"No, no, no, think about it, that young lady is with you almost every day and hasn't had a proper rest. Don't call her anymore, I'll have Gu Yeqi come over, we're all family."
As Song Yin spoke, she went into the room, grabbed her phone, and dialed Gu Yeqi's number.
Song Yin had just spoken to Gu Yeqi a few minutes before Mu Xiaoyu came out. So soon Song Yin called again. Gu Yeqi thought Song Yin missed him, and even his tone of voice carried a hint of amusement.
"Why are you calling again? Do you miss me?"
"Who misses you? Come over here now, we'll take Xiaoyu to find Li Chenxu."
"Li Chenxu? Didn't Sister Xiaoyu not want to see him now? Why are you going to see him so late?"
Even now, Gu Yeqi doesn't like Li Chenxu. Although he no longer has those feelings for Mu Xiaoyu, as a friend, he still hopes that Mu Xiaoyu can live a good life.
Unfortunately, ever since she met Mu Xiaoyu, Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu have never had a peaceful day together; it seems that she is always heartbroken.
Therefore, Gu Yeqi was even less willing to see Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu together than Song Yin.
Knowing that Gu Yeqi had a problem with Li Chenxu, but not at this moment it was not good to explain too much: "I will talk to you about this later, come here first."
After saying that, she hung up the phone without giving Gu Yeqi a chance to speak.
Now Gu Yeqi is almost completely obedient to Song Yin. Even if he doesn't like her, he still comes over half an hour later.
Mu Xiaoyu and Song Yin got into the car. Seeing the faint weariness in Gu Yeqi's eyes, she looked at him apologetically and said, "I hope I didn't bother you by calling you over so late?"
"Of course not, Sister Xiaoyu, don't worry, I'll make sure you get there safely later."
Knowing that Mu Xiaoyu was afraid of troubling him, Gu Yeqi immediately pretended to be relaxed and said.
After saying that, he seemed afraid that Song Yin would overthink it, so he glanced at her again. Seeing that she didn't seem unhappy, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It was already late at night, and there were hardly any pedestrians on either side of the street, with only a few cars passing by occasionally.
If it weren't for Li Chenxu's phone call, the three people in the car would probably have fallen asleep by now.
Sitting in the car, Song Yin soon fell asleep against the window.
At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu's mind was perfectly clear. She stared blankly out the window, lost in thought, seemingly preoccupied with something.
For some reason, she had a vague sense of unease.
She didn't know if her unease stemmed from Li Chenxu, but she had become somewhat restless and uneasy ever since she left the house.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but glance back. She saw a white car behind them, but because of the darkness, she couldn't see the people inside.
Perhaps they were just people going the same way, but seeing that white car only intensified Mu Xiaoyu's unease...
A dozen minutes later, they arrived at the hotel.
Song Yin and Gu Yeqi wanted to take Mu Xiaoyu up, but she refused: "I can go up by myself. This is a hotel, it's very safe, nothing will happen."
As she spoke, she glanced outside every now and then.
The white car that had been behind them earlier had disappeared; it seemed they really had just been going that way.
"Then be careful, and call us if anything happens."
"Yes, I know. You guys go back now, and be careful on the road."
After saying that, Mu Xiaoyu picked up her medicine box, waved to Gu Yeqi and Song Yin, and went upstairs.
"Let's get a room too. I feel at ease leaving Xiaoyu here."
Once Mu Xiaoyu was completely out of sight, Song Yin quickly grabbed Gu Yeqi's hand and said...
Gu Yeqi had the same idea. Staying here would allow them to get there quickly if Mu Xiaoyu needed any help.
The two then checked into a hotel room. After getting the room key, Gu Yeqi took Song Yin's hand and headed upstairs.
But at that moment, he suddenly stopped.
His usually smiling eyes suddenly darkened as his gaze fell on one of the hotel's elevators. There stood a man wearing a black baseball cap, carrying a large bag, looking quite mysterious.
