Chapter 676 Get Out!

It broke Ke's heart to see Ziyue like this. She clenched her fists and left, closing the door to give her some privacy. It broke Ke's heart to see Ziyue like this. She clenched her fists and left, closing the door to give her some privacy.

All words of comfort were useless in the face of a cruel reality.

…

Ke thought Ziyue would grieve for some time.

Unexpectedly, Ziyue soon recovered.

She even allowed reporters to interview her the following day.

"Mrs. Qin, your husband's survival is uncertain, and LK Group's shares are constantly declining. Do you have anything to say?"

The reporter had no sense of pity for her and spoke harshly.

However, it was part of his job. Reporters had no regard for the feelings of the victim's family.

Ziyue wore a high-end light purple suit and exquisite makeup. The makeup added color to her pale face, making her appear vibrant.

She frowned upon hearing the reporter's question. Her expression turned cold. She glared at the reporter and said, "Please watch your words. His whereabouts are unknown. It isn't about whether his survival is uncertain. Until I see his dead body, I know he is still alive."

The reporter shuddered from Ziyue's glare. He gripped his microphone and suddenly did not know what to say.

Ziyue seemed satisfied with the reporter's reaction and smirked. Then, she smiled vaguely and softened her tone. "Thank you, everyone, for showing concern for my husband and LK Group. I know everyone waits for his return as I do. I'll let you know once I have news about him."

Once the interview ended, the reporters escaped quickly as if Ziyue would murder them if they stayed any second longer.

Ke was curious to know why Ziyue accepted the interview.

After they returned to the car, Ziyue's forced smile faded.

She looked tired as she looked out of the window. At the same time, she explained, "He will come home if he knows we are waiting for him."

Muchen will find me if he is still alive. He will pay attention to news about LK Group and me. Then, he will know that I'm always waiting for him.

Ke understood upon hearing her explanation. It seemed Ziyue still insisted that Muchen was alive.

Although Ke also wanted Muchen to survive, the reality was not optimistic.

"Mrs. Qin…"

Ziyue interrupted her before she could say anything. "Let's go home."

Ke pursed her lips and swallowed what she wanted to say. She quietly drove the car to Cloud Bay.

…

The car entered Cloud Bay. Ziyue looked out of the window and saw a car parked before the villa gate.

Ke also noticed the car and appeared confused. She turned to Ziyue and asked, "Whose car is that?"

Ziyue did not speak. They were still too far away to see the car plate. Thus, she had no idea whose car it was.

Ziyue saw the car plate as they traveled closer and figured out who the owner was.

Ke saw Ziyue's calm expression and asked, "Mrs. Qin, do you know whose car this is?"

Ziyue rolled her eyes and replied coldly. "I know."

Then, she left the car straightaway and entered through the gates.

She entered the garden and found Youcheng sitting in a garden chair under a big tree. Meanwhile, Zixi squatted on the nearby patch of grass and played with Beef, the puppy.

Ziyue's expression turned cold. She walked faster.

She went to Zixi and pulled him behind her before looking at Youcheng coldly. "Why are you here?"

Youcheng's face flashed briefly with awkwardness when faced with Ziyue's defensive and unwelcoming demeanor. He stood up and said, "Can't I pay a visit?"

Ziyue sneered, "You can't."

She was not in the mood to deal with Youcheng.

Moreover, she knew his visit was never good news.

He would never bother to look for her if things were going well for him.

Her heart had long hardened against her so-called grandfather.

Youcheng was domineering and would not accept any form of disobedience. Ziyue's immediate refusal angered him. "What kind of example are you setting for your child? I'm the child's great-grandfather!"

Ziyue's beautiful eyes turned cold as ice. "Don't pull that kind of nonsense with me."

She did not give Youcheng a chance to retort but turned to Zixi. Her expression softened, and she caressed his cheek. "Zixi, can you go into the house with Ms. Nan? I have something to discuss with this gentleman."

Even though Zixi was too young to understand Ziyue's conversation with Youcheng, Ziyue knew her words would grow harsher from this point on. She thought it was better that Zixi not hear them.

Ke stood vigilantly behind Ziyue and chose the right time to grab Zixi.

Coincidentally, the maid heard voices outside and came out with a tray of teacups.

Ziyue glanced at the servant sternly. "This gentleman has been here for a long time. Why didn't you invite him in or offer tea earlier? Others will think our family is rude and unhospitable."

The maid rarely saw Ziyue losing her temper and looked down in fright. "This gentleman has just arrived. I haven't had the chance to come out and invite him in."

It turned out Youcheng had just arrived. Ziyue was relieved to hear that.

She was worried that Muchen had been here for a long time and said something inappropriate to Zixi.

Her stern expression softened slightly as she replied to the maid, "It's okay. Don't make the same mistake again."

Youcheng had been a businessman for many years and had keen observation skills. He knew why Ziyue said those words.

"Must you think so badly of me? You think I will exploit a two-year-old kid?" Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"How else should I think?" Ziyue retorted firmly.

"You…"

Youcheng was too furious to speak. Still, Ziyue felt nothing even as she looked at him. "Remember your biological son, your granddaughter? Who have you not exploited before?"

Youcheng argued, "I did it for the greater good."

"Then you should continue to mind your so-called greater good. Why are you here?"

Since Youcheng insisted on arguing that he was right, Ziyue had nothing to say.

"At the end of the day, we are still a family. Now that Muchen is likely dead, you need to act swiftly and call his lawyer. You must find out whether he has a will. If not, you should get the lawyer to…"

"That's enough!"

Ziyue shook with fury. "Get out! Get out of my sight right now!"

"Ziyue, I'm telling you this for your own good. How can you treat me like this?" Youcheng found nothing wrong with what he said and thought Ziyue was ungrateful.

Even though Ziyue had said she wanted nothing to do with him, he did not care. He believed blood runs thicker than water.

Since Muchen was likely dead, and Ziyue had a son with him, she would likely be the one to inherit his properties.

"I don't need your reminder. Muchen is not dead. He will return alive."
