As expected, Li Si did not dare to finish his sentence. He carefully observed Mu Yuchen's face and was relieved when he noticed that his expression did not change.

"If you're able to settle the affairs, hurry up and do so," Mu Yuchen said calmly while slowly lowering his hands. Then, he turned around and walked towards the desk.

"Yes, Master! By the way, we heard from Ah Bo. They've managed to trace the person and he has been staying around Los Angeles. Ah Bo has sent someone over."

"Notify the police to go easy on the manhunt. Don't be reckless. I still want to get some information out of him," Mu Yuchen said in a deep voice while sadness flashed across his dark eyes for a moment.

Li Si naturally understood what he meant and quickly nodded. "Master, don't worry. I'll let them know!"

"Okay. You may leave now."

"Yes, Master!"

Li Si finally left. Mu Yuchen slowly sat down in the office chair, turned around, and looked out of the window. It was a beautiful winter day and it had been a while since they had a warm winter day like this.

He quietly leaned back in his chair while resting his chin on his hand and slowly closed his eyes to nap for a while.

However, without realizing how much time had passed, he suddenly picked up a light and familiar scent as a pair of soft, cold hands touched and gently massaged his temples. The pressure felt just right, and it was so comfortable that it made him feel much better.

He did not open his eyes though his mouth curved into a smile. His long arm subconsciously reached out to the side, and just as he expected, he felt her soft skirt which he gently grasped in his hand.

"Why did you come here?" his deep gentle voice echoed while he played with her skirt.

"I was bored in the office, so I came to see you. Why? Don't you want to see me?" Xi Xiaye paused and leered at him.

"Of course, I do! I get to enjoy top-notch service, so I couldn't have asked for more." He smiled tenderly and clenched the skirt in his hand. "Do you want to go out for a walk? The sun's out today. It's been a long time since we've had such warm weather."

"The sun is quite warm, but it's rather windy. I only came over to have a meal with you. I need to leave afterward to attend a meeting at the office in the afternoon. I also wanted to get a copy of the materials from you," Xi Xiaye said while gently increasing the pressure of her hands.

"Alright, I'll send you back after lunch. I'm also going to see Qi Lei at the Bamboo Teahouse."

"Qi Lei?" Xi Xiaye was taken aback and she looked at him for a while, then lowered her eyes and nodded. "Oh, he didn't go that night either. I should probably go and see him. Well, send him my regards. Also, today is Doris's funeral, you—"

"Don't worry. I have arranged for Li Si to go there. For the sake of the business relationship between Glory World Corporation and Qi Kai Group, we should go and see him." He let go of her skirt after he said that and reached out to grab her hand instead while opening his eyes.

Xi Xiaye also stopped before she turned around and walked towards the coffee table. "I ran into Li Si on my way here. He said that Gu Qiwu's affairs are completed. Lingshi called me this morning. She happened to go to the hospital for a physical examination today, so she will probably meet Gu Qiwu."

"She told you that?" Upon hearing this, Mu Yuchen gazed at her suspiciously.

"It's impossible for Lingshi to compromise. Besides, her current situation may not be fit to take over the Hui Gu Corporation. She said that she wants Gu Qiwu to continue managing the business, but to make sure that Hui Gu won't fall into Gu Lingsha and Qi Feng's hands, she has drawn up an agreement privately. Should anything happen to her and the kids, all the properties inherited under her name will be directly donated to the Glory World Corporation Charity Foundation," Xi Xiaye said with a grin.
