Chapter 899 A Good Trap

“Go ahead,” Mu Sijue said, “I’ll stay with Aunt Zhou. I don’t need you to be here.”

“...” Ah Guang suddenly felt abandoned. After hesitating for a while, he said, “Seventh Brother, I’m your subordinate after all. Why don’t you ask what Mr. Lu asked me to do?”

Mu Sijue looked at Ah Guang and said lightly, “Boyan’s order...”

When Ah Guang thought that Mu Sijue finally cared about him and was about to reply, he heard Mu Sijue continue, “is my order.”

Mu Sijue meant that when Ah Guang worked for Lu Boyan, he was Lu Boyan’s subordinate, and he just needed to listen to Lu Boyan.

He did not care.

Ah Guang felt as if his heart had been shot with an arrow. He shook his head and left the ward with a sigh.

With Xu Youning and their child, Mu Sijue was really going to abandon him.

Damn, how could he abandon his friend when he had his woman?

Not long after Ah Guang left, Aunt Zhou woke up from her coma.

Mu Sijue had been waiting by the bed, so he naturally noticed Aunt Zhou’s movement immediately. He pressed the bed bell hard and told the nurse that Aunt Zhou had woken up.

“Got it,” the nurse said, “the doctor will be there right away.”

Mu Sijue looked at Aunt Zhou and asked in a slightly trembling voice, “Aunt Zhou, how are you feeling?”

After opening her eyes, Aunt Zhou suspected that it was her illusion. Taking a closer look, she found that it was really Mu Sijue, and she was really in a hospital.

She remembered that she was locked up by Kang Ruicheng, but why was she in the hospital? Why was Mu Sijue here?

“Aunt Zhou, you’re injured.” Mu Sijue noticed the old lady’s doubts and said, “Don’t move. Wait for the doctor to come and see you.”

“Okay,” Aunt Zhou remembered Tang Yulan and hurriedly asked, “Little Seven, did you get me out? Where is Yulan? How is she?”

“You’re seriously injured. Kang Ruicheng sent you to the hospital, and we found you.” Mu Sijue said, “As for Auntie Tang... we’re still looking for her.”

Aunt Zhou stretched out her hand and said in a weak voice, “Little Seven, help me up.”

Mu Sijue carefully helped Aunt Zhou sit up, put a cushion behind her back, and then helped her lean back for fear that she would feel any bit of discomfort.

“Well, it’s okay now.” Aunt Zhou motioned for Mu Sijue to sit down and then said, “Kang Ruicheng kidnapped Yulan and me and locked us up together.”

Mu Sijue asked, “Do you know where Kang Ruicheng locked you up?”

Aunt Zhou said with a sigh, “When we were brought in, Kang Ruicheng blindfolded us. Also, I’m not familiar with City A, so I don’t know where I was. But, the house we lived in was very old but eye-pleasing, like those well-preserved old house. I heard from Yulan that we might be in the old city area.”

If Mu Sijue remembered correctly, the old house of the Kang’s family was in the old city area.

However, he had contacted Ah Jin, who told him with great certainty that Aunt Zhou and Auntie Tang were not there.

When Mu Sijue was deep in thought, the doctor and the nurse came in and were required to examine Aunt Zhou’s body.

Mu Sijue said, “Aunt Zhou, let the doctor examine. I’m going out to make a phone call.”

Aunt Zhou did not dare to nod with the wound on her head, so she closed her eyes and said, “Go ahead. Call Boyan and tell him about it. Maybe he knows where it is located.”

Aunt Zhou was right. Mu Sijue did plan to contact Lu Boyan.

The phone was soon answered, and Mu Sijue said directly, “Aunt Zhou has woken up. She told me that she and Auntie Tang were probably locked up by Kang Ruicheng in the old city area. Do you remember that the old house of the Kang’s family is in the old city area?”

Lu Boyan thought for a moment and just asked, “How about Aunt Zhou’s injury?”

“The doctor is examining. It seemed to be no big deal.” Mu Sijue sounded confused. “Boyan, did you hear what I said just now?”

“I heard that.” Lu Boyan said, “Ah Guang and I found that Kang Ruicheng did lock Aunt Zhou and my mom in the old city area.”

“What is the address?” Mu Sijue said, “I asked Ah Jin, and he confirmed that Aunt Zhou and Auntie Tang were not in the old house of the Kang’s family.”

“Kang Ruicheng is very smart. He didn’t lock them up in the old house of the Kang’s family, but in the abandoned old house of his uncle.” Lu Boyan said, “If I didn’t find out that place, I wouldn’t even remember Kang Jintian’s old house.”

In the grievances between Kang Ruicheng and them, Kang Jintian was indeed a character who was rarely mentioned, let alone Kang Jintian’s old house in City A.

Kang Ruicheng hid the two old ladies in a place they had never thought of. No wonder they found no clues after several days of investigation.

Fortunately, Lu Boyan and Ah Guang had already found it out, but—

Mu Sijue asked, “Is Auntie Tang still there?”

“She has been transferred somewhere else by Kang Ruicheng,” Lu Boyan said, “we’re slow.”

“...”

Mu Sijue did not speak for a while.

No wonder Lu Boyan was indifferent to the fact that Auntie Tang might be in the old city area and just cared about Aunt Zhou’s injury.

Lu Boyan was blaming himself.

Mu Sijue tried to comfort Lu Boyan. “Regarding this transfer, Kang Ruicheng should not be well-prepared enough. There may be some clues. If we continue to investigate, we should be able to find the whereabouts of Auntie Tang.”

Lu Boyan said, “Ah Guang and I are still investigating.”

Mu Sijue thought for a moment and said, “I’ll find an opportunity to contact Ah Jin. This time, maybe he will know something.”

“Don’t take risks,” Lu Boyan said, “Kang Ruicheng has slowly trusted Ah Jin. If Ah Jin is exposed now, he will be in danger, which will be a great loss to us.”

“I’ll see what I can do,” Mu Sijue said.

Lu Boyan replied with a “yep” and continued, “Since Aunt Zhou woke up, transfer her to the private hospital. Yuechuan will be in charge of the formalities, and you can send Aunt Zhou there directly.”

“I also have this plan,” Mu Sijue said, “I’m going to contact Yuechuan.”

“Yuechuan is in the hospital. Just call him,” Lu Boyan talked to Mu Sijue on the phone while assigning tasks to his subordinates. In the end, he said to Mu Sijue, “I have a meeting. Bye.”

Mu Sijue hung up the phone neatly, then called Shen Yuechuan and told him about Aunt Zhou’s transfer. After that, he returned to the ward.

The doctor just finished the examination for Aunt Zhou.

Mu Sijue asked the attending doctor directly, “How is Aunt Zhou’s condition?”

“It’s not serious. Remember to change the dressing on time,” the attending doctor said, “for observation, the patient needs to rest in the hospital for a few days. If there’s nothing serious, she can leave the hospital in a few days.”

Mu Sijue nodded. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome,” the attending doctor smiled and suddenly asked, “where’s the little boy? When the patient was sent here, he kept crying and begging me to wake her up.”

Mu Sijue glanced at the doctor with a cold look. The doctor did not know what he had said wrong, but he could clearly feel that he had mentioned a wrong topic.

The doctor did not say anything more and left with the nurse.

“Little Seven,” Aunt Zhou asked Mu Sijue, “the child that the doctor talked about is Mumu, right?”

Mu Sijue knew that Aunt Zhou doted on the little boy from the Kang’s family, but from now on, Aunt Zhou would never see him again.

Therefore, he had not planned to tell Aunt Zhou that it was Mumu who had sent her to the hospital today.

But now, he could not hide it anymore.

“Yes,” Mu Sijue said, “Mumu and one of Kang Ruicheng’s men sent you here this morning. They’ve already gone.”

Aunt Zhou smiled with tears in her eyes. “After going back yesterday, Mumu kept saying that he would protect Yulan and me. He did his best to make us suffer less. Little Seven, can you promise me one thing?”

Mu Sijue had already guessed what Aunt Zhou was going to tell him.

The truth was just as he had expected.

Aunt Zhou said, “People like Mumu’s father will be punished sooner or later. I also know that you and Boyan will not let him go. If one day, Kang Ruicheng really falls into the hands of you and Boyan, Little Seven, can you not hurt Mumu?”

In order to reassure Aunt Zhou, Mu Sijue agreed directly without hesitation. “He is just a child. The grievances between Kang Ruicheng and us have nothing to do with him. Aunt Zhou, don’t worry. I know what I should do.”

Aunt Zhou closed her eyes. “I’m relieved to hear that.”

After lunch, Mu Sijue went through the transfer formalities for Aunt Zhou.

An ambulance from the private hospital soon arrived, as well as a doctor and two nurses.

Mu Sijue also got into the ambulance.

“Little Seven,” Aunt Zhou said helplessly, “I can stay in the public hospital. A transfer is unnecessary.”

“It’s not safe in a public hospital,” Mu Sijue said, “staying in the private hospital is more suitable for your recovery. Yuechuan is also in that hospital. I’ll be more relieved.”

Aunt Zhou could only follow Mu Sijue’s arrangement.

When they arrived at the private hospital, Mu Sijue quickly arranged everything for Aunt Zhou, and Aunt Zhou’s ward was on the floor below Shen Yuechuan’s ward.

Shen Yuechuan had gone to do a checkup. When Xiao Yunyun heard that Aunt Zhou had been transferred here, she quickly ran downstairs and soon found Mu Sijue and Aunt Zhou.

“Aunt Zhou, Boss Mu!” Xiao Yunyun ran into the ward and greeted them.

Aunt Zhou had only seen Yunyun a few times, but she had a good impression of this girl who dared to tease Mu Sijue. She smiled and asked her to be seated.

In contrast, Mu Sijue blurted out without greeting, “You came here at a good time. I have something to do, so I have to go now. Help me take care of Aunt Zhou.”

Xiao Yunyun moved to Aunt Zhou and said, “But Aunt Zhou asked me to sit down.”

Mu Sijue said, “If you like, you can take care of Aunt Zhou while sitting.”

“Boss Mu, why did you assign tasks to me as soon as I came?” Xiao Yunyun was very depressed. “If it were Youning, you would definitely not do this. You will definitely take good care of Youning.”

Mu Sijue glanced at Xiao Yunyun and asked, “Doesn’t Yuechuan take good care of you?”

Even if Xiao Yunyun is eloquent, she was speechless.

How should she reply?

If she said no, Boss Mu would definitely make fun of Yuechuan. If she said yes, Boss Mu would definitely ask her if she was not content with being cared for by only Yuechuan.

“Damn it, Boss Mu set up a good trap!”
