After leaving the club, Mu Sijue drove back to the Mu family's old home.
This time, he was sober and did not wake Aunt Zhou.
But maybe it was because he was too awake. After lying in bed for half an hour, he was still not sleepy. Xu Youning's face passed by his eyes from time to time, and it seemed as if a hole had been drilled into his heart, which was empty.
However, Xu Youning was not his in the first place, and he clearly had nothing to lose.
When the sky in the east turned white, Musijue got up and took a few sleeping pills, and then he fell into a drowsy sleep.
When he woke up again, the light in the room was dim. He couldn't tell what time it was, but he could vaguely see someone in the room.
A man he knew very well, with a tall and slender figure, long hair, and very flexible movements.
He sat up in a daze, the words "Xu Youning" were already on his lips, but the man suddenly turned around and looked at him with a smile: "Xiao Qi, are you awake?"
It's Aunt Zhou.
Mu Sijue woke up from a dream and pressed his swollen temples: "Aunt Zhou, how long have I been asleep?"
"It's evening now, and it's getting dark soon." Aunt Zhou brought a set of clothes for Mu Sijue, "When did you come back, and why didn't I notice?"
"Early this morning." Musijue said, "It's too late and I have nothing to do. I don't want to wake you up."
Aunt Zhou calmly sat down by the bed and looked at Mu Sijue lovingly: "Xiao Qi, are you really okay?"
When Mu Sijue was young, Aunt Zhou always called him Xiaoqi, with a tolerant and doting tone, very much like the tone of Mu Sijue's mother.
But within a few years, Mu Sijue was able to stand alone, with sharp edges and energy. More and more people respected and feared him. Aunt Zhou gradually stopped calling him Xiaoqi and started calling him Xiaoqi instead. name.
Only when Mu Sijue is very good, or when he looks very bad, will Aunt Zhou call him back by his nickname, just like she did when she was a child and comforted him softly.
For a moment, Mu Sijue couldn't answer Aunt Zhou's question. Is it really okay or something is really wrong? He didn't have an answer...
Aunt Zhou seemed to notice Mu Sijue's hesitation and asked, "Have you really decided to get rid of Xu Youning?"
"… tonight."
After saying that, Mu Sijue realized that it was already night. He glanced out the window subconsciously. His heart felt like it was being grabbed by a hand full of thorns, making it tight and painful.
Aunt Zhou knew Mu Sijue so well that she didn't miss Mu Sijue's subtle expression at all. She held his hand and said, "It's not too late for you to change your mind now."
change idea? Musijue admitted that he wanted to, but he couldn't.
"Aunt Zhou, it's already too late." Mu Sijue said lightly, as if he really didn't care about Xu Youning's life and death, and naturally changed the subject, "I'm hungry, make me something to eat, I'll take a shower and go down."
Aunt Zhou sighed: "Okay."
After Aunt Zhou left, the room suddenly became quiet. Mu Sijue looked at the mobile phone placed on the bedside, picked it up and put it down again.
So what if he knew that Xu Youning had been taken away or was still in the club? What should happen will always happen tonight.
Musijue picked up his clothes and was about to walk to the bathroom when his cell phone suddenly rang and A Guang's name was displayed on the screen.
Without hesitation for almost a second, he grabbed the phone and answered the call: "Tell me."
"Brother Qi," Aguang's voice was low, "it's almost eight o'clock. I'm going to pick up Xu Youning now and take her to the mountain to deal with it."
"..." That hand covered with thorns instantly penetrated Musijue's heart.
He was silent for a long time, and finally he could speak in a normal tone: "Be careful, Xu Youning... it's not as simple as you think."
"Yeah." Aguang said, "I'll give you a call after it's done."
"No… "
The word "need" was still stuck on Mu Sijue's lips. He was not interested in knowing whether Xu Youning was dead or alive, but before he could finish speaking, Aguang had already hung up the phone.
As soon as he let go, the phone fell to the carpet with a "bang" sound. Something in his heart seemed to fall with it, leaving only blood flowing horizontally throughout his chest.
The bathroom was so close, but Musijue seemed to have lost the strength to walk there.
This time, it was the biggest bet in his life, but he could only let others decide whether to win or lose.
In contrast, A Guang, who should have been the saddest, had no reaction. When the time came, he took Xiaojie and Jason directly to the second underground floor.
Both Xiaojie and Jason were deeply impressed by Xu Youning.
A few months ago, Musijue was attacked in Mexico. She was the only one among her staff who knew about it and rushed to Mexico to take care of him. Later, she was kidnapped by Kang Ruicheng in the shopping mall, and Xiaojie was punished to stay in a state of inertness for a long time.
Now, Aguang told them that Xu Youning was an undercover agent sent by Kangruicheng, and Mu Sijue wanted to kill her
"Brother Guang, Brother Guang," Xiaojie said very uncomfortably, "Is this true? Is Xu Youning really an undercover agent?"
Aguang didn't answer and asked instead: "You question Brother Qi's judgment?"
"No, no, no!" Xiaojie waved his hands repeatedly, "I was just surprised, very surprised..."
"What's the surprise?" A Guang asked.
"Unexpectedly, Seventh Brother actually killed Xu Youning!" Xiaojie said in disbelief, "Everyone knows the relationship between Seventh Brother and Xu Youning, so locking her up is better than killing her, right? Killing... the person will be gone. .”
Aguang paused and said solemnly: "This is the rule of Brother Seven. Have you forgotten that Brother Seven can't tolerate betrayal the most?"
Xiaojie glanced at Jason, who shrugged, indicating that he didn't have an answer either.
Soon, the three people reached the second underground floor.
Ah Guang scanned his palm prints and pushed open the door. Xu Youning was lying on the bed sleeping.
Jason was speechless: "Sister Youning... is so heartbroken. Doesn't she know she is going to die today?"
Xu Youning opened his eyes when he heard the sound, and sat up slowly: "Who said I didn't know?"
Jason was startled by Xu Youning: "Then you are still sleeping?"
"Is there a rule that you can't sleep before you die?" Xu Youning slowly got out of bed and stretched out his hands towards Aguang, "Cuff them. Mu Sijue asked you to deal with me. I have no regrets."
Aguang took out the handcuffs and cuffed Xu Youning: "Is there anything else you want to tell anyone, or... is there anyone you want to see?"
"Yes." Xu Youning smiled slightly and said without thinking, "I want to see Mu Sijue again."
Ah Guang looked confused: "This..."
Xiaojie and Jason also looked at each other, a little doubtful whether Xu Youning lost his mind before his death.
Xu Youning looked at the expressions of these three people and sighed: "You have zero humor cells."
Xiaojie and Jason both breathed a sigh of relief: "You were just joking."
Xu Youning shrugged and smiled as if nothing had happened.
Only she knows that she is not joking.
She didn't know what would happen next, whether she would successfully return to Kangrui City or die by gunfire. No matter which outcome, she would never see Mu Sijue again.
Therefore, she wanted to see Musijue again.
But she also knew that it was impossible, but it should still be possible to ask Aguang to bring a message to Su Jianan.
"Aguang," Xu Youning squeezed out a smile, "What I say next is serious, please listen carefully - I need you to apologize to Jian An and Brother Yicheng for me. You told Jian An and almost caused her and Lu I'm really sorry for Bo Yan's divorce. If I had known that Kang Ruicheng wanted those documents to threaten her, I would never have handed them over."
"I will tell Mrs. Lu." A Guang nodded and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Xu Youning shook his head: "No more, let's go."
In terms of the nature of their work, Xiaojie and Jason are in the same league as Xu Youning, and those who work in their profession all cherish their lives because they don't know when they will die. This was the first time they saw someone like Xu Youning facing death calmly, and they couldn't help but curiously asked: "Aren't you afraid of death?"
"I'm not afraid." Xu Youning raised a mysterious smile, "I've been waiting for this moment for a long time." After saying that, he looked at A Guang.
For a moment, Aguang seemed to understand what Xu Youning meant. He gave her a look calmly and took her to the basement level and directly into a commercial vehicle.
After the car drove out of the underground parking lot, Aguang told Xu Youning: "We are going to Enning Mountain."
Xu Youning is very familiar with G City. Enning Mountain is the only high mountain in G City that has not been developed into a tourist mountain. The terrain on the mountain is complex, and most people will easily get lost when going up there. But for someone like her who has a good sense of direction, Enning Mountain is a good place to escape.
She said "Yes" calmly: "When you bury the body, remember to help me choose a place with better feng shui."
Jason looked at Xu Youning in surprise: "What the hell."
Xu Youning glanced at Jason: "I'm still alive now. If you can still see me after today, that's hell."
Jason: "..."
Soon, the car drove up Enning Mountain and stopped at a place halfway up the mountain.
On the mountain late at night, darkness shrouded every corner like a devil's claw, and the atmosphere was indescribably weird. But to Xu Youning and Aguang, this atmosphere was nothing. They had experienced scarier things than this. Too many scenes.
Jason took out his gun hesitantly, looked at Xu Youning and sighed: "To be honest, I think it's a pity that you are dead."
Xu Youning shrugged: "What a coincidence, I think so too." After saying that, her smile became weird.
Xiaojie and Jason were still comprehending the weird smile on Xu Youning's lips, but Xu Youning had already used the key that Aguang gave her yesterday to unlock the handcuffs.
"You can still see me after today, that's hell" - Jason thought of Xu Youning's words, then understood what she meant, and called Xiaojie, "She wants to run away!"
At this moment, Xu Youning came over with a kick and easily took away Jason's gun and held it in his hand. At the same time, he avoided a bullet fed by Xiaojie.
Xiaojie and Jason finally understood Xu Youning's ferocity and yelled at Aguang: "Why are you still standing there, take her down!"
A Guang walked towards Xu Youning calmly, seemingly going to fight Xu Youning, but after fighting Xu Youning, he suddenly stopped resisting. Xu Youning reflexively grabbed his hands, and the black muzzle of the gun was pressed against his forehead.
When things developed like this, Xu Youning himself was surprised for a moment before he realized what was happening. He stopped Xiaojie and Jason and said, "Don't move. If you move, I'll let you have a taste of bullets."
Xiaojie and Jason kept trying to signal A Guang to resist, but A Guang shook his head. They looked at A Guang in disbelief: "You..."
"Don't move." Aguang was very calm. "Don't worry, if Brother Qi is investigated, the responsibility will be all on me. You will be fine." (To be continued)
