Chapter 623: Touch Me Again and You’ll See

The trio did not talk along the way and Tang Yan drove straight to Ye Mansion.

When the butler of the Ye family saw them, he spoke to Mu Qiqi immediately. “Miss Qiqi, Young Master is waiting for you in the living room.”

This butler had been serving the Ye family for many years, so Mu Qiqi had seen him many times. But, just like what she thought of Ye Jingcheng, she did not like the butler at all.

Mu Qiqi led Tang Yan and Feng Shanshan into the house. Although she was familiar with this place, she would rather not know any of the members of the Ye family.

The three entered the living room. At the moment, Ye Jingcheng was pacing anxiously back and forth in the living room. Once he saw Mu Qiqi, he rushed forward and grabbed her arm as if she was his only hope. “Qiqi, you’re Tangxue’s older sister. Can’t you just let her go?”

“You wanted to see me just to say this?” Mu Qiqi asked.

Ye Jingcheng regained his senses and saw Tang Yan and Feng Shanshan behind Mu Qiqi. “You even brought Captain Tang along.”

“You don’t mind me taking a tour of your house, do you?” Tang Yan took the chance to ask Ye Jingcheng.

“Help yourself, Captain Tang.” Having said that, he dragged Mu Qiqi near to the swimming pool and sat on the sun lounger. “Are you still afraid that I will hurt you?”

“Even if you don’t want to hurt me, you still caused a stir in the city. Of course I will be cautious with you,” said Mu Qiqi.

It’s the very pool and the very location that Ye Jingcheng and Mu Tangxue had pinned her in the water, treating her as if she was not a human. Today, they were at the swimming pool once again. This time with someone missing.

“Qiqi, tell me where Tangxue is. As long as you tell me that, I swear I will never go against you in the future, and I won’t hurt you.” Ye Jingcheng raised his hand up and promised. “Not only that, I will reveal the truth about the scandal if you tell me where Tangxue is.”

“Do you think I need your words?” Mu Qiqi smirked. “You should keep your dirty tricks in your mind for your own usage later. I will get the proof eventually.”

“Qiqi, must you be this stubborn?” Ye Jingcheng was becoming anxious again. “Look, you’re Tangxue’s sister anyway. How can you control your sister’s freedom your whole life? It’s unreasonable, don’t you think so?”

“Do you still remember this swimming pool?” Mu Qiqi asked in return.

“I’m talking about Tangxue with you.”

“In order to teach Tangxue to swim, you pinned me in the pool, remember?” Mu Qiqi pointed at the swimming pool and asked Ye Jingcheng. “I’m also talking about Mu Tangxue with you.”

Ye Jingcheng looked at the pool, then back at Mu Qiqi. His emotions had become a little out of control. “Tell me where Tangxue is first!”

“Why should I? Who are you to tell me what to do?” Mu Qiqi shouted sharply. “Let me tell you, Ye Jingcheng, we have a long way to before we settle old and new scores.”

“Why are you so vicious that you must hide your sister away? Tangxue is so kind-hearted. How could you?!”

“Stand up and I’ll tell you,” said Mu Qiqi.

Ye Jingcheng stood up immediately. However, Mu Qiqi pushed him into the pool. Then, she squatted by the pool and said, “You want to know where Mu Tangxue is? No way I’m going to tell you! You can keep hurting me, but Ye Jingcheng, let me tell you, the more you do it, the more I won’t let you find Mu Tangxue. If you can, feel free to just take my life. But when you do that, you will never see Mu Tangxue ever again. I’ll consider my grudge of you pinning me in the water resolved. However, I will still keep in mind how you defamed me. I will let you know what the price of messing with me is. Since you know I’m vicious, don’t provoke me into doing something on an even bigger scale. Otherwise, I will let Mu Tangxue suffer a hundred more than what I did! Still think you can do whatever you want to me?”

Mu Qiqi looked at Ye Jingcheng, who was in the water, with sharp and firm eyes.

The girl before him was no longer the wimp.

“Touch me again and you’ll see.”

Ye Jingcheng was shivering in the cold water. He didn’t know why, when Mu Qiqi threatened him, he couldn’t form any words.

Later, the butler went to the swimming pool and said, “Young Master, I’ll get you out.”

“You wanted to see me, and I’ve come. If there’s nothing else, I shall leave now. I still have a state banquet to attend tonight. This is the chance that your lovely Mu Tangxue will never get in her life.”

Ye Jingcheng slowly walked to the edge of the swimming pool and got up with the butler’s help.

“Young Master, I’ll get you a towel!”

“Mu Qiqi, if Tangxue is hurt, I won’t let you live another peaceful day in your life.”

“We’ll see about that,” Mu Qiqi said, and gracefully turned around.

Tang Yan and Feng Shanshan were behind her.

“Done?”

“Done,” Mu Qiqi answered while walking. “It’s almost three. I need to go back to get ready for the state banquet or someone will be disappointed in me. Right, Captain Tang, I’m suddenly reminded of something useful. I saw a funny scene when I came here in the past. But, I’ll tell you after we get back to the police station.”

“Don’t keep us in suspense. What is it?” Feng Shanshan asked in a gentle voice.

“I overheard a conversation between Papa Mu and Uncle Ye when I was young. I think Ye Holdings might be involved in tax evasion.”

“Are you making this up to get revenge?”

“I’ve only just remembered it. Let’s report it and see if we can get anything out of it.” Mu Qiqi’s tone was very serious. “Besides, I strongly believe that Ye Jingcheng is crazy.”

“He’s so obsessed with your sister that he can’t even think straight.” Feng Shanshan sighed. “Once you get involved with such a person, you will be in trouble your whole life. And you can’t even get rid of him.”

“Don’t get rid of him then,” said Mu Qiqi. “I want to let him know that even if he keeps playing tricks on me, I will still live a better life than Mu Tangxue.”

“What if he threatens you with your safety?”

Mu Qiqi suddenly thought of the words that Ye Jingcheng said just now. ‘Mu Tangxue is so kind-hearted…’

King-hearted?

“I really hope that I can find Mu Tangxue now so that I can shatter Ye Jingcheng’s illusion for good.”

The Mu Tangxue that Ye Jingcheng liked was her fake innocent and pure image. In his heart, she was a fragile clay doll.

So, he tried his best to protect Mu Tangxue and thought that Mu Qiqi was evil, thinking that she would threaten Mu Tangxue’s safety. However, he was totally wrong.

The days they spent together when they were young were unforgettable memories to Ye Jingcheng. However, he had never lived with Mu Tangxue before.

So, Mu Qiqi was sure that if Ye Jingcheng really got what he wanted, he would learn how blind he once was.

It’s just that, where on Earth was Mu Tangxue now…
