With his arms crossed before his chest, Youyou glared at his father unhappily. “Daddy, I’ll give you another chance to reevaluate the food!”

The threat in his eyes was apparent!

As the man maintained a straight face, he answered, “The taste isn’t bad.”

Yun Shishi: “…”

Mu Yichen: “…”

Only then was the younger twin happy; his face brightened up a little.

Holding the bowl of warm rice in his hand, he suddenly felt that this happiness was hard-earned!

One would probably only know how precious such peaceful happiness was after experiencing suffering!

After dinner, the older twin pulled his brother to the bedroom. He had plenty of questions to ask him.

Youyou gave him a brief overview of the events that had happened in the past two days.

His heart pounded in fear at what he heard, and when he learned that Mu Lianjue had sent assassins after them, he balled up his fists in anger.

“That guy is simply too hateful!”

“He’s like a clown. Likely knowing that he had lost the upper hand, he wanted to jump a few more times before he gave up!” The younger lad snorted.

“Abominable!”

Mu Yichen was so enraged that he was left exasperated. He could not help wishing to make mincemeat out of that man personally!

The younger lad then made a call to Li Hanlin. Once the call connected, the subordinate sent his thanks to heavens in relief for his boss’s safe return.

“Sir, you’re back! I was so worried.” He was truly shaken by what had happened to the boy.

The latter neutrally said, “I’m sorry to trouble you with so many things in the days I wasn’t around.”

“What are you saying, sir? Those are within my scope of work; there’s no trouble at all!”

After a pause, the man suddenly carefully probed, “Sir, is it convenient for you to come down to the office now?”

“Why?”

“There are some urgent matters for you to deal with.”

“It’s inconvenient now.”

“Umph…”

He knitted his brows. From his subordinate’s tone, there seemed to be a very important matter, indeed.

After a moment of consideration, he decided to drop by the company.

Hence, he sought the help of his father and frankly explained the reason.

“Daddy, I need to go to the office. Can you cover for me?” he asked.

Mu Yazhe frowned. “You just got back home and you’re still injured; what do you want to do?”

“I have something important to deal with,” the boy emphasized. “I don’t wish to let mommy know of my identity yet, so I need you to cover for me when necessary.”

His father ruminated on it for a while. “All right! I’ll send you to the office. Don’t take too long, though!”

“Okay.”

Thus, the man gave his son a cover and said that he was craving for the dessert from the famous shop in town with his return.

The woman wanted to follow them but was told to accompany their other son at home, instead.

She agreed as the still injured Little Yichen needed plenty of rest and could not move around too much.

His father then successfully brought him of the house and sent him to Lezhi Holdings’ headquarters.

He got him to wait outside his office and would give him a call when he was done.

His father laughed teasingly. “Can’t I enter your office, Director Yun?”

“Of course not! After all, there are some trade secrets that I can’t let you know!” The boy crossed his arms before his chest with feigned arrogance.

The adult rubbed him on the head. “Go. I’ll wait for your call.”

“Mhm.”

With a nod, Youyou then turned and entered the office.
