Mu Tingshen and Su Muran stood very close together.

The warm breath swept across the back of Su Muran's neck, instantly seeping into her limbs and bones through her pores, making half of her body numb.

Su Muran subconsciously softened her breathing, her back pressed against the burning heat of the body, her heart pounding erratically.

She tried to move aside to create some distance, but Mu Tingshen suddenly grabbed her waist with his other hand, and his deep voice sounded close to her ear.

"Don't move, this isn't right."

Su Muran dared not move again, her eyes fixed on the screen, intently checking the data.

Because she was so focused, Mu Tingshen took a step back, bending over and no longer daring to get too close to her.

About half an hour later, the risk assessment was completed.

Mu Tingshen showed a satisfied expression when he saw the result.

"It's about what I expected."

Su Muran also saw that the risk level was not high and was within a controllable range.

but……

"Was this data report provided by Jaan?"

Su Muran pointed to the original signature on the data and asked curiously.

"Yes, he is the vice president of New Star Technology."

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

After Mu Tingshen answered, he noticed that Su Muran subconsciously raised her right hand and rubbed her fingers together.

Perhaps Su Muran herself didn't realize that this was a small, unconscious action she would make when she had something on her mind but hesitated about whether or not to say it.

Su Muran nodded and said truthfully, "New Star Technology offered me a job. I met Jaan when I went for the interview, so I know him. But the day before yesterday, I happened to run into him and his wife selling their property, preparing to leave Estonia and settle abroad."

Mu Tingshen: "..."

"I don't need your help anymore, you should go and rest."

He reacted almost instantly, grabbed her shoulders and lifted her off the chair, then pushed her out the door.

After closing the door, he immediately took out his phone and called Zhou Shi and Shen Yunzhou.

Su Muran was completely bewildered when she was pushed out.

I was about to knock on the door to ask what was going on, but when I heard him talking on the phone inside, I lowered my hand.

She had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on; it was clearly beyond her control. So she obediently went back to her room to sleep.

The next morning, Su Muran woke up, stretched, glanced at her phone, and then got up to wash up.

She opened the door and stepped out of the room, glancing instinctively into the study—the study light was still on.

Did he not get any rest all night?

Su Muran hesitated, wondering whether she should go over and check on them.

Suddenly, the door opened.

However, it wasn't Mu Tingshen who came out, but Zhou Shi and Shen Yunzhou.

They both looked like they hadn't slept all night; they had dark circles under their eyes.

However, physical exhaustion paled in comparison to the astonishment at seeing Su Muran.

The two of them were stunned when they saw Su Muran.

Zhou Shi was the first to react, and immediately greeted Su Muran respectfully: "Good morning, Miss Su."

Mu Tingshen also came out of the room. Compared to the two of them, he was in slightly better condition.

"Luckily, she discovered the problem yesterday, otherwise we would have really been fooled by Jaan."

Mu Tingshen glanced at Su Muran, then spoke seriously to Zhou Shi and Shen Yunzhou.

Shen Yunzhou immediately gave Su Muran a thumbs up and praised her, "Miss Su is very quick-witted, thank you very much."

Su Muran replied hesitantly, "I didn't do anything."

Mu Tingshen dismissed them, saying, "You all need to get back to business. There's still a lot to do. All the thorny issues must be resolved before I return to China."

Shen Yunzhou asked him, "Aren't you leaving with us?"

"I'll go over after I finish breakfast."

Mu Tingshen glanced at Su Muran and said meaningfully.

Shen Yunzhou shrugged and immediately left with Zhou Shi.

The two of them said goodbye to Su Muran as they left.

After the two left, Mu Tingshen introduced Su Muran: "This is Shen Yunzhou, the new president of New Star Technology."

Su Muran said in surprise, "Then I should have greeted him properly just now."

After all, she was practically an employee of Newstar Technology, so she should be more polite.

"He should greet you properly, no, he should thank you properly. If you hadn't reminded me yesterday and made me realize that Jaan was suspicious, and I hadn't discovered it after Jaan left, Shen Yunzhou would have been left with a huge mess."

"Is there really something wrong with Jaan?"

Su Muran asked curiously.

Mu Tingshen clearly didn't want to talk to her too much, so he changed the subject and said, "Let's have breakfast first."

"it is good."

Seeing that he didn't want to talk about it, Su Muran stopped asking.

Instead of going to the buffet downstairs, they called customer service to have breakfast delivered to their room.

Su Muran discovered that these were all foods she used to love to eat.

"I didn't expect you to remember my tastes."

The breakfast was ordered by Mu Tingshen; he must have specifically asked customer service to deliver it.

Mu Ting replied meaningfully, "I'm not as forgetful as you."

Su Muran smiled awkwardly and quickly lowered her head to eat her breakfast.

Mu Tingshen didn't have much of an appetite and put down his utensils after only a few bites.

He didn't get up and leave immediately, but sat quietly to the side and waited for Su Muran to finish her meal.

Only after Su Muran put down her cutlery did he say, "We're going back to China tomorrow afternoon. You can take care of your personal matters today. I'll arrange a driver for you so you can go out easily. If I'm not here when you get back, don't wait for me. Get some rest."

"No need to arrange a driver," Su Muran said immediately. "The public transportation here is very convenient and free."

Mu Tingshen: "..."

She was once the apple of the Su family's eye and always had a personal driver to pick her up and drop her off.

Even during the six months of her whirlwind marriage to him, the Su family always had a driver accompany her to make it easier for her to travel.

What exactly happened that made her willingly give up her comfortable life in Suzhou and come to this place to suffer like this?

"You are not allowed to refuse. I am the client now, and you must follow my instructions."

He reprimanded her sternly and displeasedly, ordering her to accept it.

Su Muran was surprised that he could change his expression so quickly. She couldn't help but purse her lips in grievance and nod with a dejected look.

After Mu Tingshen left, Su Muran immediately returned to her room and called Lin Xiaowei to complain about Mu Tingshen's unpredictable moods.

"He used to be such a good-tempered person, how come he can turn on you so easily now? I really don't know which one is the real him."

Lin Xiaowei stammered, "Mu Ran, don't worry about which one is the real him. Someone suddenly came looking for you today. They said... they said they were Su Mingli's people. Su Mingli is really capable; she managed to find us here with just one phone call."

"What's the situation now? Is the person still alive?"

Su Muran's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly pressed for an answer.

Lin Xiaowei said, "I told him you don't live here, but he might not believe me and will probably keep watch nearby. You'd better continue to stay with Mu Tingshen for the next couple of days and not come back."

"Mu Tingshen said he's going back to China tomorrow afternoon, and I... will see him sooner or later."

Su Muran gripped her phone tightly, her heart clenching again as she thought of Su Mingli.
