The night soon fell, and the gray sky swallowed the last skylight as the entire sky darkened.

Tonight, there was no bright moon like there was a few days ago. In the far horizons of the sky, only a few lonely stars hung. Both sides of the quiet street were lit up with streetlights that seem a little brighter than usual.

Imperial Sky Entertainment City was bustling. Mu Lingshi packed up briefly and walked out while a tall and sturdy bodyguard in black followed behind her.

Ever since she found out that she was pregnant, Mu Lingshi had been extremely careful. She was protected very well, and Ah Mo did not let her exert herself too much either. If not for the fact that he was worried that she would be utterly bored at home and being insistent on having something to do to get through the eight long months, Ah Mo and Wang Hui had already planned on letting her stay at home.

They could not argue with her. Later on, Ah Mo organized for a more relaxing job for her in the office, so Mu Lingshi was now back to pack up some things, and at the same time, hand over tasks to the new manager. It was quite late by the time she was done. Ah Mo had even called quite a few times, already urging her to get home. Otherwise, he would go and pick her up himself, so she finished explaining briefly and then go home.

Ah Mo had gotten her a retired special forces soldier to be her bodyguard. He was strong, steady, and sharp. He was called Ah Quan and had been working under Ah Mo for quite a few years now, so he was a loyal staff.

"Miss Shi, be careful. I'll go get the car," Ah Quan spoke softly, holding a bunch of things that Mu Lingshi had packed up after they walked out of Imperial Sky Entertainment City.

Mu Lingshi glanced up at the car that was parked ahead and nodded gently. "Okay then, I'll wait for you here."

Ah Quan grunted in response, then quickly left to get the car.

Mu Lingshi stood by the staircase and flipped through the CDs in her hand. They were all her most treasured and favorite CDs. Even though she was not working anymore now, she still wanted to bring these home with her.

Clatter!

She was looking at two of the CDs when her hand slipped, and a few CDs fell. With a frown, Mu Lingshi bent down very quickly and was about to pick up the CDs when someone else's hand moved a little quicker. The person helped her pick up the things on the ground and swiftly organized them.

Mu Lingshi was obviously a little shocked to see the sudden hand, so she looked up subconsciously and straightened her back.

What greeted her sight was a grave and stern face. It looked familiar, yet distant, but Mu Lingshi would never forget his name—Gu Qiwu!

How could it be him?

When he saw Mu Lingshi's alert expression, a dark light flashed in the depths of Gu Qiwu's eyes. He lowered his gaze and looked at the items in his hand. Moments after that, he studied Mu Lingshi intently and the light in his eyes shifted, so you could not quite tell what he was feeling.

Astonished, Mu Lingshi's mind blanked out while her exquisite face was filled with an inevitable paleness. Underneath her shades, a cold light gathered in her eyes as she stared silently at the man before her. Both of them did not move for a while.

Gu Qiwu's gaze was as profound as the sea. He looked at her for quite a while, then lowered his head to look at the CDs. His deep voice sounded slightly mellow and rich as he commented, "Western country, indigenous Latin American music...Do you like these kinds of music?"
