Chapter 9
"Why are you so distracted?" Zhong Lin frowned and asked seriously.

If he hadn't happened to pass by, Su Muyu would have been hurt badly. It's not her style to be so careless.

"I'm fine..." Su Muyu's eyes dodged, obviously not because she was fine, but because she didn't want to say more.

Zhong Lin and Su Muyu were in the same organization, and he rarely saw her so absent-minded when performing tasks.

Fearing that she might encounter some trouble, Zhong Lin frowned even deeper.

"Are you still being polite to me?" Zhong Lin's voice was full of air, sounding calm and reliable.

In the organization, he took care of Su Muyu a lot. Su Muyu had a sense of trust in him, so she finally compromised and told him about herself.

"So it's this kind of thing. I can help you investigate your mother's property, and I'll let you know if I have any news."

Zhong Lin is the owner of a well-known high-end chain restaurant with a wide network of contacts.

With his help, Su Muyu felt a little relieved, and the two said goodbye after reminiscing about the past.

Back home, a servant suddenly told Su Muyu that someone was looking for her outside the door.

When she came to the door, she found that it was Su Qing. She was holding a few emerald ornaments in her hand, her face was flushed with anger, and she pointed at Su Muyu and cursed.

"Su Muyu! You bastard! You deliberately deceived me with fake products!"

As soon as Su Qing got the jade back, her vanity swelled, she couldn't wait to wear it on her body, and she couldn't wait to show it off everywhere.

As a result, it was found to be a fake within a few hours after the prestige. She didn't believe it. How could the Shi family's things be fake? It must be that the other party didn't know the goods.

The two couldn't stop arguing, and even fought.

Su Qing then took it for appraisal, and found out that the jadeite was actually fake!

"You shameless bitch! How dare you lie to me! You are as bad as your mean mother!"

This was at Shi's house, Su Muyu deliberately didn't fight back, but turned red-eyed and looked at Su Qing innocently.

"How is this possible! I don't know how it happened, you wronged me..."

"Wronged!? You dare to say that you are wronged! You did it on purpose! You dare to make me look bad, don't even think about it!"

Su Qing sneered, and angrily threw the jade on Su Muyu.

The emerald shattered all over the ground, making a mess.

Su Muyu turned her head away, narrowed her eyes, and endured silently.

The huge movement made caught Mrs. Shi's attention, and she saw the farce when she walked over.

When the audience came, Su Muyu's eyes were red with tears, and she sobbed softly, "I don't know the goods, and I don't know what's going on."

"You can beat me and scold me if you want, but don't come here to make trouble, we will solve it ourselves..."

Su Qing lost face, and was furious at this moment, she rushed forward and grabbed Su Muyu's hair, "What are you pretending to do with me! Explain the matter clearly to me! Otherwise, I'll beat you, bitch right now!"

"stop!"

Mrs. Shi said, full of majesty.

Su Qing's anger could not be calmed down, her breathing was rapid, and because of Madam Shi's face, she threw Su Muyu away.

Su Muyu staggered a few steps, her delicate body trembling slightly, as if trying to hold back her sobs, having suffered all the grievances.

"What's going on here!" Mrs. Shi asked coldly with an ugly face.

Su Qing said mockingly, "Your daughter-in-law lied to me with fake jade, I'm here to settle the score!"

"I didn't..." Su Muyu suppressed her tears, innocently defending herself.

Regardless of the truth of the matter, messing around in front of Shi's house is embarrassing. Mrs. Shi is naturally occupying her family, and she asks someone to drive Su Qing away without saying a word.

"Don't let any inexplicable people in in the future!"

Su Qing was dragged away by the security guards, still struggling, cursing Su Muyu with a ferocious face.

"You wait! I want you to look good! Don't even try to take back what you want!"

Su Muyu didn't say a word, just leaned sideways, arranging her messy hair, like a bullied kitten.

After driving Su Qing away, Mrs. Shi's stern gaze fell on Su Muyu.

"I don't care what the matter is, your every move now has something to do with the Shi family, don't do such embarrassing things in the future!"

Su Muyu nodded weakly, "I see, it's all my fault, I'm really sorry..."

Seeing that she was indeed being bullied, it's okay to admit her mistake, Mrs. Shi helplessly breathed a sigh of relief, and waved her hand, expressing that she forgave her.

"Hurry up and go back and clean up, what does it look like now!"

Su Muyu went back to the room logically, and when Su Qing left in embarrassment, she was surprised to find that Shi Xiuyan woke up.

And he is still sitting on the edge of the bed, so he can move around freely?

Su Muyu opened her mouth, subconsciously reached out to touch the phone, and was about to record a video, but Shi Xiuyan stared indifferently.

"Don't make a sound."

His sharp-edged face was as indifferent as if it had been frozen, but his good-looking features couldn't make up a half-smile, it was even colder than when he was in a vegetative state.

"But..." Su Muyu wanted to say something more, but after seeing Shang Shi Xiuyan's gaze, she closed her mouth again, acting like a frightened bird.

Zhao Ye was about to move, but Shi Xiuyan didn't want to reveal the fact that he was awake, so as to maintain the advantage of observing in the dark.

"The matter of my waking up is kept secret for the time being, and I will tell you when I think the time is right."

Seeing that she seemed to be frightened by him, Shi Xiuyan's tone softened a bit, and he calmly made three chapters with Su Muyu.

"At the moment you just need to do business as usual and not arouse suspicion from other people."

Su Muyu didn't understand his intention, and continued to play dumb, tilted her head, twisted her fingers together, raised her reddish eyes to observe him, and opened her mouth tentatively.

"But... Madame wants me to keep an eye on your physical condition. If you wake up, you must tell her, otherwise she will treat me..."

Having said that, she pursed her lips again and lowered her head silently.

When Shi Xiuyan swept over her messy hair, it was not difficult to see that she had just been bullied.

Although he has no feelings for her, Shi Xiuyan is still very upset that his nominal wife has been bullied.

"What I owe you, I will definitely make it up to you in the future." He promised.

Whether it's the grievances she suffered at the Shi family or the forced artificial insemination, he will make up for her.

Having said all of this, Su Muyu knew that she had no right to refuse, so taking the opportunity to win Shi Xiuyan's sympathy was enough.

"I see, I will listen to you."

Footsteps came from outside the door, Su Muyu and Shi Xiuyan looked at each other subconsciously, and there was a tacit understanding between each other.

Su Muyu opened the door ahead of time and went out. Sure enough, a servant came to her and said that it was Shi Rong who gave her something and she needed to go downstairs to have a look.

"I see, you go and do other things first, I have already tidied up the room."

"Yes."

Su Muyu tidied up her hair and went down to see what Shirong was going to do again.
