Mr. Yuan's Dilemma: Can't Help Falling in Love with You

Chapter 37: I’m Bait

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mu Chenyan felt that this matter was too strange.

If this man was someone from her uncle’s side, then there was no need to be this mysterious, going so far as to even hurt a nurse!

“Is Yuan Xuan aware of this?” Mu Chenyan asked while narrowing her eyes.

“We didn’t dare tell Mr. Yuan! Because before that, Mr. Yuan had arranged for a few groups of people to take turns to keep watch, but the people on shift were absent right before it happened, and they handed over the responsibility to the hospital. Who would have thought that something like this would happen so quickly? Thus, the hospital made sure not to let Mr Yuan know.”

The young nurse’s voice was getting softer and softer as she remembered the arrangement of the former head nurse.

“Seeing that you’re Madam Yan’s family, I feel obliged to tell you...”

The young nurse was beginning to panic due to her disclosing this supposedly classified information, and she quickly explained.

“Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone.” Mu Chenyan gently comforted her.

Mu Chenyan had a gut feeling that the man who did not want to reveal his face was probably her brother, Mu Chenwu!

Mu Chenwu had been missing for two years, and no one knew about his whereabouts.

Their mother was in the hospital in critical condition, and his sister was trapped in prison, unable to attend to her. Therefore, it was only right that Mu Chenwu, the only son, check on his mother!

Nonetheless, why did he not openly reveal his face, instead choosing to sneak into the hospital in the middle of the night?

Mu Feng had died, and the company had gone bankrupt and had already been liquidated. Even if the court pursued the matter, Mu Feng was still listed as the legal representative of the company. The contents of the reports were also all tied to Mu Feng, so there was no need for Mu Chenwu to hide.

Mu Chenyan could not imagine who else, besides Yuan Xuan, could cause her brother to cower in fear like this.

Furthermore, Mu Chenyan could not comprehend why Yuan Xuan was still grabbing a hold of the Mu Family, unwilling to let them go.

Was it merely because of Shu Qinger’s death?

If that was the case, then Yuan Xuan did not even need to let her out. Letting her suffer in prison would have been easier and crueler.

Mu Chenyan suddenly realized that the entire matter was not as simple as she initially thought.

There could be a secret part of the story that Mu Chenyan was not aware of!

A chill ran down Mu Chenyan’s spine as it occurred to her that it took just one month for her case to turn around.

Wu Ze had suddenly told her that the probability of success for her appeal was very high. At that time, Mu Chenyan did not have much hope.

She did not expect for her case to be successfully overturned in one month, after which, she was acquitted and released...

‘Last month, last month, could it really just be a coincidence?’

Mu Chenyan’s mind was spinning...

At this moment, a bold guess suddenly formed in her mind!

‘Could it be that Yuan Xuan was secretly looking for Mu Chenwu, but after seeing his trail but failing to catch him, he let me out to act as bait?’

Mu Chenyan felt the temperature of her environment drop to zero when she thought of this.

She thought back to the days following her return. Yuan Xuan’s tender and sweet love toward her was something she had sought but had never acquired.

After coming out from that hell, Yuan Xuan had never once brought up Shu Qinger, instead, uncharacteristically ignoring the estrangement between the two whilst acting as though he was lusting for her. Could it be all be an act to pursue his hidden goal?

However, even though Mu Chenyan had been filled with hatred, she was not willing to believe that Yuan Xuan’s affection toward her was fake...

Her heart ached as if all her life force had been sucked out, and Mu Chenyan instantly felt like the room was spinning.

She leaned against the wall of the hospital corridor as her lips turned blue. The young nurse thought that she was feeling cold and so helped her to a seat.

“Miss, are you alright?”

Mu Chenyan waved her hand and spoke softly, “You can go back to your work. I’ll be fine after resting for a bit!”

After the young nurse left, Mu Chenyan quietly went through the recent events. The more she thought about it, the more realistic her guess seemed!

She even discovered something — she had thought that her heart was dead, like stagnant water, but whenever a matter involving Yuan Xuan arose, she would just have to involve herself in it.
