Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 551

Han Muzi closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm herself down. Even though she was calm enough, there was still no trace of blood in her face at this moment. After a while, she opened her eyes again and said coldly, “Call the police.”

When they opened the box, they found nothing but a dead rabbit in there. However, it was not an ordinary dead rabbit. The rabbit’s death was extremely tragic and cruel. Two pieces of wood were stuck in its eyes, and its ears were cut off. It was a bloody and gory scene. As for the rest… Han Muzi couldn’t bear to remember it anymore. No matter what, its death was extremely terrifying. Both of them couldn’t handle such a bloody scene, especially Yan.

Since she was scared, her legs were wobbly, and so she could not move an inch as she sat on the ground.

After Han Muzi told her to call the police, she almost sobbed out loud. “I-I can’t stand up.”

Han Muzi didn’t know what to say to that. She pursed her pale lips and stepped forward to help Yan before stretching out her hand to cover the box. Then, she helped Yan up to sit on the couch.

“I-I-I…” Yan raised her head and looked at Han Muzi, stuttering. “It scared me to death! M-Muzi.”

Han Muzi had taken out her phone and calmly called the manager of the management office of their neighborhood. “Is it the logistics office? I’m calling from unit 18XX of this neighborhood. I took a parcel from you just now when I came back, but something’s wrong with it. Please ask someone to come over to deal with it. Um… it’s a dead rabbit. Thank you, and please hurry.”

After hanging up, Yan looked at her in reverence. But she reacted quickly and asked aloud, “D-Didn’t you want to call the police? Why did you change your mind?”

Although she had already calmed herself down, her first thought at that moment was to call the police. After all, the death of this rabbit was too tragic. It was obvious that someone sent this to them deliberately, and it was not a coincidence. However, if they called the police because of a dead rabbit, there might be insufficient evidence to nab the culprit. Therefore, she finally chose to let the logistics office of their neighborhood solve this issue.

Han Muzi thought for a while. Instead of answering Yan’s question directly, she asked, “You bought some food ingredients online, right? What did you buy?”

Yan’s expression suddenly became sorrowful. “You aren’t suspecting me, are you? I don’t have the habit of eating rabbit meat, let alone asking the store to send me such a tragic rabbit.”

Han Muzi said, “Of course I’m not suspecting you.”

“I bought a steak marinated with a special sauce. Nothing but that. Are you saying that the seller is playing a prank on me by sending me a dead rabbit?” She had recovered from her shock, so she could speak quickly now. However, both of them still sat there looking as pale as a ghost.

“Do you have a grudge against the seller?”

Yan shook her head.

“Do they have a grudge against you?”

Yan shook her head vehemently again. “Definitely no. This is the first time I’ve dealt with them, and they’re quite a famous online seller.”

Han Muzi couldn’t help but ask, “Don’t you understand my questions just now? Since you bore no grudges against each other, why do you suspect that the seller sent you a dead rabbit?”

At first, Yan was confused. However, she gradually returned to her senses, and then she widened her eyes. “Y-You mean someone deliberately put this rabbit in the parcel to scare us, and this person has some grudges against us!”

“Not bad. You’re not too stupid.”

“Muzi!”

“What?”

“How do you still have the mood to joke around? Do you know that I was so scared I almost peed myself? My God, it’s awful enough to see a dead rabbit, but there were wooden sticks inserted in—”

“Stop.” Han Muzi interrupted her while she was describing it. It brought back vivid memories of the dead rabbit. It was simply too cruel to kill it this way. Thinking about it, she even felt a little nauseous, so she could only sit there with her lips pressed firmly against each other.

A few staff from the logistics office came to their unit quickly. As Yan still couldn’t move, Han Muzi was the one who went to open the door.

After the staff from the logistics office looked at the parcel, the few burly men turned pale with fright upon seeing the bloody scene. Then, they all looked at Han Muzi, who was the owner of the house. “Miss Han, is this the parcel you just received?”

“It’s not a parcel that is delivered by a logistics company.” Han Muzi shook her head and looked at the box. “Someone probably sent it to the logistics office here disguised as a parcel from a logistics company.”

They nodded when they heard Han Muzi’s deduction. “Okay, Miss Han, we understand what you mean. We will deal with these immediately. We will get back to you after investigating this issue.”

Han Muzi’s expression was indifferent. “Thanks.”

They quickly packed the box and moved it away. After closing the door, Han Muzi started gasping while she leaned against the wall.

Yan still sat there looking at Han Muzi.

Han Muzi was silent for a moment before walking forward. “You don’t look too good. Go back and rest first. You don’t have to make dinner today. Let’s go out to eat or order takeout later.”

However, Yan said spookily, “What if the takeout is poisoned?”

Han Muzi was speechless upon hearing this.

Yan blinked. “I think we are being targeted.”

Han Muzi didn’t answer her. Instead, she walked wearily to the couch and sat down. Then, she poured herself a glass of cold water to suppress the emotions within her.

“Who have we offended recently? Who would be so immoral to do this kind of thing? Why do we keep encountering such…” Yan complained. All of a sudden, she stopped speaking and looked like she remembered something. Her eyes widened as she looked at Han Muzi. Her expression right now sent chills down Han Muzi’s spine.

“Just say what’s on your mind. Don’t look at me like this.” After what happened just now, Han Muzi was very fragile at this moment.

“Could it be Lin Qingqing? She wanted to hurt you before!”

Lin Qingqing? Han Muzi thought of how she came to her office with her mother to apologize to her before this. Her pale lips moved, but she did not say anything.

“Have you ever thought that she… might change her mind even though she promised that she wouldn’t harm you? Otherwise, after we returned to this country, we haven’t offended anyone. How could someone do such extreme actions at this moment?”

Han Muzi interrupted her. “Lin Qingqing is not the only person we have offended.”

Seeing Yan staring at her, Han Muzi said expressionlessly, “Have you forgotten what happened at the company before?”

“Oh, right. Do you reckon it’s Zhao Yiru then? Damn, do you think that b*tch wants to take revenge on us after suffering that humiliation?”

Han Muzi pursed her lips and thought about it, but she couldn’t think of any valid reason. Her mind was still in a mess.

Han Muzi had felt Lin Qingqing’s sincerity when she apologized at that time, but there was no guarantee that she would not change her mind. After all, she also said that she wanted a fair competition with Han Muzi for Ye Moxuan. Moreover, Lin Qingqing said that she would not hurt her—not that she would not threaten her.

Or maybe it was Zhao Yiru that had a grudge against her. It might be possible that she looked up Han Muzi’s address and sent her a dead rabbit.

Han Muzi felt an aching pain in her temples, so she reached out to massage them as she felt a headache setting in. Who the hell is it?

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 552

The rabbit incident deeply traumatized Yan and Han Muzi. After the people from the logistics office had left, Yan mopped the place where the box had been placed a few times, yet she still felt uncomfortable. “Why is the smell of blood in this room still so pungent?”

Hearing that, Han Muzi frowned and then got up to open all the windows in the house. The cool night breeze drifted into the house, dispelling the bloody smell left by the dead rabbit just now. However, Yan felt that it was not enough. After thinking about it, she took out a bottle of perfume directly from her bag and sprayed it on every corner of the room.

Seeing that she had calmed down, Han Muzi said, “Why don’t you go take a bath? I’ll clean up, and then we can go out for dinner.”

Yan asked, “Go out at this hour? It’s already dark. Won’t it be quite dangerous?” She still felt fearful after that incident.

Han Muzi thought for a while and agreed that it might be a bit dangerous to go out, so she said, “Forget it, let’s cook some noodles at home.”

The two of them went back to their respective rooms to wash up. After that, they went downstairs to cook some noodles.

Little Bean was ordered to return to his room by Han Muzi, so he didn’t see anything and didn’t know what had happened. He was also quite hungry now. Since Han Muzi had cooked some noodles, he happily wolfed them down.

There were three people at the dinner table, but he was the only one who had a good appetite. Han Muzi and Yan sat opposite each other, but they didn’t even pick up their chopsticks. I… don’t feel like eating.

Having witnessed the bloody scene just now, they had no appetite at all when they saw the noodles in the bowl.

Yan glanced at Han Muzi and blinked. “D-Don’t you want to eat?”

Han Muzi raised her head and looked at her. “What about you?”

Yan smiled. “I don’t feel like eating.”

Han Muzi also smiled, but she did not answer.

Little Bean raised his head from his bowl and looked at them curiously. “Mommy, Aunt Yan, what’s wrong?”

Han Muzi caressed the back of Little Bean’s head gently. “Little Bean, finish your food quickly so that you can watch TV afterward. Then, you should prepare to take a shower and sleep.”

“But Mommy, aren’t you hungry?”

Han Muzi smiled slightly and said gently, “I’m not hungry now. You eat first. Aunt Yan and I will eat later when we’re hungry.”

“Okay.” Little Bean nodded and then continued to eat his noodles.

This time, he quickly finished his food and put down his chopsticks. “Mommy, I’m full now, but I don’t want to watch TV tonight. Can I use your laptop, mommy?”

“Of course. Go ahead and use it, but remember not to go to bed too late.”

“Good night, Mommy and Aunt Yan.”

Both of them watched him go up the stairs and disappear into his room before retracting their gazes. Sighing, Yan looked at the noodles in front of her and touched her stomach.

Rumble, rumble! “I’m so hungry but I can’t eat. What should I do?”

Han Muzi’s stomach rumbled as well. After all, she hadn’t eaten anything all day, so she was quite hungry as well.

After thinking about it, Han Muzi picked up her chopsticks and smiled. “Come on, take your chopsticks. Let’s dig in.”

The corners of Yan’s mouth twitched several times. “You’re not serious, are you? You have the appetite?”

“Even if you don’t have the appetite, you still have to eat it!” Han Muzi took the noodles and stuffed it in her mouth while trying hard not to think about the scene just now. Yan watched Han Muzi eat. Initially, she thought Han Muzi would feel nauseous halfway through her noodles, but the latter managed to finish all her noodles.

After successfully filling her stomach, Han Muzi tidied up her bowl and chopsticks and got up. “I’m so full already, so I’ll go rest first. You have to find a way yourself.” With that, she turned around and left Yan, who called her a traitor.

After she went back to her room upstairs, she went into the bathroom immediately and retched.

Although she could pretend to eat the noodles as if nothing had happened, she still couldn’t get past that internally. Han Muzi vomited in the bathroom for a long time before she felt well again. After all the vomiting, she felt extremely tired. While leaning against the wall, she looked at her pale self in the mirror. Who was doing these things secretly? They had already received a dead rabbit today. What would happen tomorrow?

Perhaps she should consider sending Little Bean to Han Qing’s place first so that he could take care of him for some time. But if this was the case, Han Qing would know about this incident. If that happened, she could not be independent anymore.

However, if she didn’t send Little Bean away, what if he witnesses a similar situation one day? He was still so young, and she did not want her child to be traumatized by the sight of something like that.

…

Meanwhile, after Little Bean took Han Muzi’s laptop back to his room, he went to his bed and laid the laptop on his lap. His tender and soft hands pressed away on the keyboard.

Soon, he retrieved the surveillance video from the neighborhood, and then he held his chin in his small hand and stared at the situation on the screen intently.

Although his mother didn’t allow him to look at it just now, he used his hidden binoculars to take a peek at the situation below when he went upstairs. After all, it must have been a very scary thing to make his mother’s face turn pale like that. On top of that, she forbade him to look at it as an attempt to protect him. That was why she didn’t want him to look at it.

However, the more she was like this, the more he wanted to know what it was so that he could solve it. He thought that his mother had been working too hard. He didn’t want her to protect him all the time.

After Little Bean had downloaded the video, he took out the photo of the dead rabbit and did a backup. Then, he selected someone’s email and sent it over directly.

Hmph. He couldn’t let his father be busy with other mundane stuff. A scenario like this where his mother was targeted must be dealt with immediately.

…

Beep! Only one lamp was lit in the study room at night, but Ye Moxuan, who was supposed to be working, was sitting in front of the computer watching the replay.

Since the Han family’s live broadcast of the banquet that day, Ye Moxuan had asked people to edit the live video. All the scenes with Han Muzi in it were cut together into a video. After receiving it, Ye Moxuan clicked open the video and smiled. Then, he sat in front of the computer and watched it repeatedly.

He installed some cameras in the dressing room as well, so the video of him dancing with Han Muzi was also recorded. Ye Moxuan kept watching this section repeatedly.

Suddenly, there was a new notification from his email.

His mailbox usually consisted of work mail, and he didn’t bother looking at it in the middle of the night. Thinking of this, he frowned and ignored the notification at the lower right corner and continued watching the video.

However, when Little Bean saw that Ye Moxuan hadn’t read the email for a long time even though he had been online the entire time, his cheeks puffed up angrily.

“Hmph! Naughty daddy! He doesn’t even read emails during the night.”

After thinking about it, his fingers started typing away furiously on the keyboard again. “Let me see what you are doing!”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 553

In no time, Little Bean could see the screen of Ye Moxuan’s computer. When he saw that his mother was on his screen, he was quite stunned. She looked gorgeous in the video that was recorded when she wore that beautiful dress at the banquet. She was his mother, after all, so Little Bean was fascinated by the video.

The video suddenly moved to the dressing room, where the two of them were dancing.

When Little Bean saw his father’s hand on his mother’s waist, he couldn’t help snorting out loud. “What a pervert!”

Ah, forget it! Since daddy doesn’t want to read this email because he wants to finish the video, I’ll just wait for a while. I’ll let him look at Mommy for a while more.

Hence, Little Bean put the laptop away and got out of bed to take a shower in the bathroom. After he had brushed his teeth and changed his pajamas, he climbed back into bed. He thought Ye Moxuan would already have read the email by now, but when he switched on the laptop, the screen was still showing the dancing video.

Little Bean thought his laptop was having some connection issues in the beginning. However, after working on it, he realized that it was not his laptop that had a problem—Ye Moxuan was still watching the video.

Hmph! Cheeky daddy! Can the same video be watched for so long?

He murmured, “Don’t think that Mommy will forgive you just because you’re watching this video on repeat. Men are all pigs.”

While saying this, Little Bean completely forgot about his gender. Or perhaps, he had only considered himself to be a little boy. He had completely forgotten that he would grow up into a man someday.

After waiting for a while more, Little Bean realized that Ye Moxuan hadn’t finished replaying the video, and it was almost time for him to go to bed. He really didn’t have the patience to wait any longer.

“Stupid daddy, I don’t have so much time to spend with you,” Little Bean complained. With his fingers typing away on the keyboard, he started to operate some other stuff.

Ye Moxuan realized that Han Muzi had magical powers on the night of the banquet. How else could he sit here motionless, staring at her over and over again? He pursed his thin lips and stretched out his hand to clutch his chest where his heart was. It was as if he had been possessed.

Beep! A chat box suddenly popped out and took up the center of his screen. It prompted him to check the latest email that he had just received.

Ye Moxuan looked at this with a darkened face. His emails were usually displayed at the lower right corner. Why was it displayed in the middle today? Is it possible that…

Just when Ye Moxuan was suspicious, a sentence with a large font was displayed on the screen. ‘Look at the mail, you fool!’

Ye Moxuan was stunned when he saw that. A sinister look flashed across his eyes as he reached out his hand to maneuver the mouse. Instead of checking the email, he began to control his computer to track the culprit.

However, it turned out that their defenses were very good. He had failed to hack into the other party’s system.

Ye Moxuan’s eyes deepened. Although he wasn’t an expert on computers, he was quite adept at it. However, he seemed to have met someone that he couldn’t hack into right away. Ye Moxuan’s eyes deepened while he pursed his thin lips to ponder the other party’s intentions.

‘Look at the mail! Why haven’t you read it yet? Are you a fool?’

Once again, Ye Moxuan was speechless upon seeing that. It was probably because he hadn’t read the email, so the other party reminded him anxiously. The blue veins on his forehead protruded, and his long fingers were typing on the keyboard. ‘Who are you?’

‘You don’t need to worry about who I am. Read the email I sent you first.’

Ye Moxuan was not in a hurry. Instead, he tapped his fingers on the table with his thin lips pressed into a firm line. The other party seemed very anxious. Was there anything important in the email?

‘It’s about the woman you care about the most. Don’t you want to look at it?’

The next sentence from the other party successfully made Ye Moxuan narrow his eyes with dangerous intent. Since that person had hacked into his computer, they must know what video he had just been watching. Thinking about this, Ye Moxuan moved the mouse to click on the email.

As soon as he opened the email, he saw a bloody picture. When he frowned, he saw another line of words appear on the screen.

‘Read through the entire email seriously. There is a video file below—remember to download it and watch it.’

Ye Moxuan didn’t know what were the intentions of the sender of the email, but if that person had malicious intent, he wouldn’t be spending so much time here. Hence, Ye Moxuan pursed his lips and continued to look through the entire email silently. He downloaded the video file and opened it. In no time, he saw a familiar figure.

Little Bean stared at the screen and saw that he did not appear in the video. He cupped his cheeks, looking quite pleased with himself. His technique was getting better. Hehe! It’s just a pity that I can’t show it in front of mommy, otherwise, I would scare her off.

Ye Moxuan felt that something was wrong when he saw Han Muzi and Yan appearing in the camera, and his brows tightened into a furrow because he had already seen the dead rabbit in advance. At this moment, Han Muzi appeared in the video again.

After seeing Yan walking into the frame while holding the box with Han Muzi next to her, Ye Moxuan had already guessed the outcome. The dead rabbit was in the box.

‘Why do you have this information?’

‘Time is up.’

Ye Moxuan frowned, looking a little unhappy. ‘What do you mean?’

‘My bedtime is up.’

Ye Moxuan narrowed his eyes and tried to hack into the other party’s computer again, but he received another message. ‘Don’t try to hack into my computer, no one has ever succeeded in hacking into my computer.’

Seeing these words, Ye Moxuan snorted coldly. It seemed that he had met an expert tonight, who had bullied him—a non-professional computer enthusiast.

‘Good night! Love and kisses.’

Before Ye Moxuan could react, the other party had already stopped all his operations. Ye Moxuan waited for a while to make sure that what the sender said was true.

His bedtime was up. Although he didn’t know the exact identity of the person who hacked into his computer tonight, Ye Moxuan’s expression turned colder as he took out his phone to call Xiao Su. “Immediately check everything around Young Lady’s address. And find out whether there is any suspicious person who has come in contact with her recently.”

Xiao Su didn’t respond after listening to it for a long time, and it took a while before he said weakly, “Y-Young Master Ye, you are asking me to do all this in the middle of the night?”

“Do you have an opinion on this?” Ye Moxuan’s voice sounded like it had come from hell. It sent chills down Xiao Su’s spine.

Xiao Su shuddered inexplicably and shook his head. “No problem, I’ll check it right away.”

After hanging up the phone, Ye Moxuan watched the video that was sent to him by Little Bean again. After replaying it several times, he saw a man who wore a baseball cap entering the logistics office holding the box. He wore his cap very low, and he was wearing the same clothes as the other delivery men. He seemed to be very sensitive to the camera and had everything well under his control. He had not shown his face even once.

Ye Moxuan took a screenshot and sent it along with the video directly to Xiao Su’s mailbox. Then, he took out his phone and dialed Xiao Su’s number again. “Before tomorrow morning, I want to know everything about this person.”

Xiao Su had just received the email. Before he could open it to check it out, Ye Moxuan gave another order. “Y-Young Master Ye? Should I check this first, or should I check on Young Lady first?”

“Does it matter?”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 554

Of course it mattered. Xiao Su didn’t even know who to look for, but he fully understood that it was not an ordinary person seeing how Young Master Ye suddenly wanted to look for that person in the middle of the night. After this, Xiao Su had to check on Han Muzi’s place and the surroundings, and he also had to check on other people as well.

This was a very difficult task for him. However, when the words reached his lips, Xiao Su’s words changed again. “Y-You are right—it doesn’t matter. I got it now, and I’ll find out everything.”

Beep… Beep… As soon as he finished his sentence, the other end had already hung up, so he could only hear the dial tone.

Xiao Su glanced at his clock. He was so angry that he was at a loss for words. It was in the middle of the night, and he was already off work; it was time for him to rest. However, with just a call from Ye Moxuan, his rest time was gone. If that was all, it was still alright. But Ye Moxuan asked him to settle this matter as soon as possible.

Arrghhh! Well, he’s lucky to have me. If it was someone else in my shoes, how could they stand the instructions and torture of an abnormal person like Young Master Ye?

…

After taking a shower, Han Muzi didn’t feel sleepy, so she took out a design draft and started drawing.

As the surroundings had become quiet, she could hear any movement around her. After what had happened tonight, she became extremely sensitive.

When she heard a flurry of movements in the next room, Han Muzi put down her draft and got up to enter the room. After pushing the door open, Han Muzi saw that only a small table lamp was lit in the room, and Little Bean was obediently lying on the bed under his blanket with his two small hands on his chest.

Seeing this, Han Muzi took off her shoes and walked in softly. When she reached the bed, she listened to his even breathing to make sure that he had fallen asleep. What did I hear just now then?

After standing there for a while, Han Muzi stepped forward and bent over to tuck in Little Bean—to make sure he would not catch a cold. She then left his room.

As soon as the door was closed, Little Bean, who had been lying on the bed, opened his eyes and blinked before quietly breathing a sigh of relief.

It had almost scared him to death. He didn’t expect that his mother would come in so suddenly. When he was about to go to bed just now, he accidentally knocked something over and made a sound.

As it took too much time for him to send emails to his daddy tonight, he had slept slightly later. If his mother found out about it, she would think he had misbehaved. He wanted to be a well-behaved child in front of her so that she would not worry about him.

Thinking that he had already sent the email to Ye Moxuan, Little Bean puckered his lips happily. Of course, he would leave such a troublesome matter to his father so that he had the chance to shine.

Back then, Ye Moxuan had made Han Muzi sad for so many years, and this made Little Bean feel sorry for her as well.

Although Daddy was a jerk back then, as long as he is sincere and willing to treat Mommy well, I will forgive him. After all, he is my biological father!

Thinking of this, Little Bean pursed his lips together and turned his body over. Then, he closed his eyes and drifted to sleep.

In the quiet night, Han Muzi lay on the bed with her eyes closed, but the bloody scene was still on her mind. The shock from that scene just now was just too traumatizing. After all, neither she nor Yan had ever seen such a terrible thing, so they weren’t that mentally strong.

Although Han Muzi appeared calm then, it did not mean that she was not affected. After lying down for a while, she found that she still couldn’t sleep, and she didn’t even want to close her eyes. So, she simply got up and watched some variety shows on her phone. She had no idea when she fell asleep holding her phone.

In her dreams, she felt the world around her shaking while she stood in the middle of a large, empty field. Han Muzi frowned and suddenly heard a shout, “Muzi! Get up!”

She opened her eyes swiftly only to realize that an earthquake had not happened—Yan was shaking her shoulders vigorously. “You are finally up! Rise and shine!”

It was quite a pain to be woken up by someone else.

Han Muzi forced her eyelids to stay open and sat up. She stretched out her hand to massage her aching temples and asked weakly, “What’s the matter?”

Yan stretched out her hand to rub her cheek vigorously. “What’s going on? After what happened yesterday, how are you able to sleep?”

Han Muzi slapped Yan’s hand away in an annoyed manner and fell back to her bed while holding her blanket. She had a pounding headache. In fact, she didn’t even know when she slept last night. She was really uncomfortable now and couldn’t even open her eyes.

“Get up quickly. The police have arrived downstairs!”

After hearing the word ‘police’, Han Muzi’s senses were instantly stimulated. She slowly opened her eyes—all traces of sleepiness had disappeared. After half a second, she sat up. “The police are here?”

Yan nodded vehemently. “Yes, I heard some commotion downstairs, so I went to the window to have a look. Then, I found that there was a police car at the entrance of the neighborhood, but I don’t know what happened.” As soon as she said that, Yan shot Han Muzi a morose look. “Why do you look so unwell?”

Hearing that, Han Muzi raised her head and glanced at her. “You too.”

Yan didn’t reply upon hearing that.

Han Muzi stood up and opened her wardrobe and removed a coat to put it on. “It may have something to do with what happened to us yesterday. Should we go down and take a look?”

“I don’t think that’s possible.” Yan tilted her head. “It’s just a dead rabbit. How could it alarm the police? Do you think there might be another major incident?”

“Let’s go check it out,” Han Muzi said. She was already out of the door.

Since it was a Sunday, there was no need to go to work. Hence, she could take a nap to catch up on her sleep later in the afternoon.

When the two of them were halfway there, Han Muzi suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Yan. “Why don’t… you stay back with Little Bean? I’m worried to leave him alone at home.”

“Little Bean is still sleeping.” Yan glanced at the time after that. “It’s not time for him to get up yet. You know how punctual his biological clock is, right?”

Han Muzi also glanced at the time. Indeed, there was still an hour before Little Bean would get up. If she didn’t go anywhere else, there should not be any problem.

“Well then, let’s go and see. We’ll go back if nothing happens.”

“Sure.”

So the two of them went out together. Worried, Han Muzi locked the door before leaving and got into the elevator with Yan.

Their neighborhood was quite large, but because there were two gates, they usually wouldn’t meet many people. However, since the police were here today, there was only a small path at the entrance of the neighborhood for residents to pass through.

When Han Muzi and Yan arrived at the scene, they realized that a large group of people were already there, thus they could not see what was going on.

Feeling helpless, Yan had to pat the shoulder of a tall man in front of him and asked with a sweet smile, “Mister, can you let us know what happened? Why are the police here, and why are there so many people around?”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 555

The man was quite impatient at first. After all, the air was already very stuffy after everyone crowded here. Hence, he was quite irritable when he was asked a question by some stranger.

It was probably because Yan had a sweet smile on her face. When he turned around, he saw a sweet-looking girl and a beautiful woman with a distant expression on her face. Hence, his attitude completely changed in that instant. He smiled when he looked at the two of them and explained patiently, “I’m not quite sure what happened, but I think someone died.”

“Someone died?” Yan inhaled sharply, shocked. After glancing at Han Muzi, Yan found that she didn’t look too good either.

“Can you tell us more about it?” Han Muzi asked after pursing her pale lips.

Seeing that a beautiful woman had asked him questions, the man nodded. “When we arrived, the police had already blocked this place, so we could only watch from a distance. When I arrived, there weren’t many people yet, and I heard from people that were already here that this person suddenly came here to take their own life. It was quite unexpected, and no one knows anything.”

Han Muzi didn’t know how to reply after hearing this as it sounded quite ridiculous.

“Suddenly came here to kill themself?” Yan’s mouth twitched a little and she hugged Han Muzi’s arm fearfully. “Why does this sound so off? Did you know that yesterday we received—”

“Thank you for letting us know about this.” Han Muzi suddenly interrupted Yan’s sentence and pulled her to turn around. “Let’s go back first. There are too many people here, so we can’t see anything anyway.”

Before Yan could react, Han Muzi dragged her back.

After entering the elevator, Yan couldn’t help asking, “What’s wrong? Why did you suddenly interrupt me? Do you think that this person’s death is related to our rabbit?”

“I don’t know.” Han Muzi shook her head with an indifferent expression on her face. “However, the fewer people know about this, the better.”

After all, no one would give them a dead rabbit for nothing. Something strange had just happened last night, and just the next morning, someone had taken their own life.

Those two matters seemed to be unrelated to each other, but the issue didn’t seem to be that simple as well. After all, the timing and location were such a coincidence. How could they be unrelated?

Ding! The elevator door opened, and Han Muzi walked to her unit. When she was just about to open the cover to enter her fingerprint, she stopped suddenly.

Through the surveillance cameras she had installed, she discovered that the door inside was opened, and she could see the footage.

Han Muzi felt a chill run down her spine at this instant. She clearly remembered that she had closed the inner door when she came out just now. Thinking of this, Han Muzi quickly entered her fingerprints and opened the door to walk in.

Seeing that she was in a hurry, Yan quickly followed her. After Han Muzi entered, she found two pairs of shoes in the hallway. Her expression changed and she walked in directly without taking off her shoes.

“Mommy, are you back?”

A young voice entered her ears. Looking toward the source of the voice, Han Muzi saw that Little Bean had brought two glasses of water out from the kitchen, and two men in police uniforms were sitting on the couch in the living room.

When the two of them saw that the adults were back, they stood up. “Hello, Miss Han. Since you were not home just now, your son opened the door to let us in.”

Looking at them, Han Muzi breathed a sigh of relief. She thought that something had happened to Little Bean.

“Hi. Can I help you?”

As the policeman addressed her name in such a straightforward manner, it was obvious they came here prepared.

After asking, Han Muzi took another look at Little Bean and smiled slightly. “Little Bean, Mommy wants to talk to the police officers. Can you go upstairs first?”

Little Bean blinked and nodded, but just when he was about to walk upstairs, one of the police officers said, “Miss Han, to ensure the authenticity of your words, we would like your son to stay here as well. We have a few questions for him.”

Although the smile on Han Muzi’s face was still polite, it turned colder. She slowly asked, “Are you here to ask questions or to interrogate us?”

The expressions of the policemen changed immediately. After a glance at each other, they sighed. “Well, it’s not an interrogation. But just to make sure that everything follows protocol, Miss Han, I hope you can cooperate with us.”

“Okay.” Han Muzi waved to Little Bean and motioned him to come near her. Yan also followed suit rather anxiously.

“Gentlemen, what questions do you have for me?”

“You don’t have to be nervous. Maybe we were too serious just now, so we’ve scared you off. But this is our job—we don’t mean any harm. So, I heard that you received a parcel last night with a dead rabbit inside, am I right?”

Han Muzi did not deny it. Instead, she nodded directly and admitted it. “Yes.”

“Do you know who sent that to you?”

“No, I don’t.”

“You don’t know?” One of them increased his volume. “Have you offended anyone? For example, at work, or in a romantic aspect?”

“Well, whether I have offended anyone or not, I think it’s quite subjective. You should ask the other party about that.” Han Muzi smiled slightly. “If you ask me, I don’t think I have any problems dealing with other people, so I probably shouldn’t have offended anyone. ”

Yan, who was standing next to Han Muzi, thought to herself, She’s amazing.

Her answer made the two police officers frown, but after thinking about it, they felt that her reply was legitimate. After all, matters like offending people were subjective. What if they were nice on the surface, but secretly bore grudges?

“Miss Han, you are indeed not wrong. But can you think of any instance where someone has held a grudge against you?”

Han Muzi smiled slightly. “I don’t understand why this would alarm the police. I didn’t call the police, did I? Mister, before you continue to ask me questions, as the one being questioned, I have the right to understand the entire course of the issue. I want to know the reason you came here. Is it because of the person who died downstairs? Is the police suspecting that I’m involved?”

“Miss Han, you’ve misunderstood. We don’t suspect you. It just happened that the deceased was the person who delivered the parcel, so we made the connection to you.”

Hearing that, Han Muzi’s pupils shrank. “What did you say? The deceased was the man who delivered the parcel?”

“Yes, we tracked down the surveillance cameras and found that he was the one who delivered it.”

“How did this happen?” Yan couldn’t help interjecting at this time. “If it was him who delivered the parcel, why did he kill himself this morning? I don’t understand.”

“That’s why we came to you,” the police officer said helplessly.

The development of the case until now had been particularly absurd.

Why did the delivery man take his own life? Was it because he was afraid of being discovered? However, if all he did was deliver the dead rabbit, why would it get to the point where he would have to kill himself? If he was caught, he would just get a warning, or be made to cooperate with the authorities to find the mastermind. He probably wouldn’t have gotten into any trouble anyway.

The mastermind…

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 556

Little Bean blinked and looked worriedly at the policemen and his mother. Didn’t I send an email to Daddy last night? Hasn’t he finished dealing with it? Hmph! Stupid daddy, can’t you be more reliable? If this continues, I’m going to ask Mommy to remarry someone else! You will be alone and regretful by then!

Finally, after exchanging some information, the police left.

Han Muzi thought for a while and suddenly turned around to look at Little Bean. “You should go back to live at the Han residence for the time being.”

Hearing that, Little Bean immediately pouted in dissatisfaction. “Mommy, why?”

“You heard what the policemen said just now. It’s not safe here now. You can’t live here anymore.”

Little Bean was not convinced. “Since it is not safe, why can you still live here?”

“Little Bean…”

“Mommy, don’t chase me away, okay? If it’s dangerous here, I have to stay to protect you.”

“No.” Han Muzi looked stern. “You are still a child, but I’m already an adult, so I can protect myself. It is too dangerous for you to live with us here. I will call Uncle Qing to pick you up later to go back to the Han residence. On top of that, the police may come again in the next few days. Maybe I will even have to go to the police station to help with this investigation. So, I probably won’t be able to take care of you. Just treat it as a favor for me and follow Uncle Qing back first. After I’ve taken care of everything, I’ll bring you back, okay?”

Little Bean was unhappy about this arrangement, so he kept pouting. In the end, Han Muzi spent a long time convincing him and promising him certain conditions before he reluctantly agreed.

Then, she called Han Qing, but she only remembered what had happened in their neighborhood after the call had gone through. So, she changed her mind and told Han Qing that Yan would send Little Bean to live with him for a while because she was too busy recently and didn’t want to wake up early in the morning to send Little Bean to school.

Han Qing was silent for a long time before saying, “When I asked you to start a company in the beginning, it wasn’t so that you would neglect your health.”

“I know.” Han Muzi bit her lower lip and laughed softly. “Well, I’ve only been busy recently. It’s not like this every day. It’s only for a short period.”

“Muzi, you must remember something.”

“Yeah?”

“You are the boss who started the company; you are not the employee, so you have the right to rest.”

“What about you, Qing? You used to fly abroad to see me, and you always flew back to continue your meetings without taking a break. Aren’t you like that as well?”

Hearing her logic, Han Qing suddenly had no words to refute her. Han Muzi smiled slightly and said, “Well, it’s more than obvious that the higher your position is, the less reason you have to rest. Qing, don’t worry, I know how to take care of my health. See, I’m now sending Little Bean to your place just so I can sleep a little longer.”

Han Qing finally believed her excuse and agreed. After that, Han Muzi asked Yan to send Little Bean to the Han residence.

At first, Yan didn’t want to agree because she was rejected by Han Qing last time. She was now very afraid to see him. After all, she had said some harsh words in front of him, and it felt very awkward for her to see him now. However, she knew the seriousness of this incident. After all, a person was found dead. Hence, she didn’t say anything and promised Han Muzi she would do so. Soon, Yan took Little Bean back to the Han residence.

On the other hand, another person had reacted quickly as well. When Xiao Su let Ye Moxuan know about the news of the person’s suicide, he curled his lips coldly. “The mastermind behind this also works fast. They immediately sacrificed one of their pawns over such a small matter. Does this mean that they have enough pawns to make such unnecessary sacrifices?”

Xiao Su’s face was very solemn. “Young Master Ye, we can’t underestimate this matter. This opponent is vicious and aggressive. I am worried that Han… Young Lady will be in danger.”

Hearing this, Ye Moxuan’s face darkened. Indeed, the opponent was very cruel.

Initially, he wanted to investigate this, but the other party immediately blocked all clues. When Xiao Su rushed over, the delivery man had already killed himself. Hence, they had no choice but to call the police to investigate the matter. After all, since there was a casualty, they couldn’t intervene anymore.

“Have the details of the residents on the nearby floors been checked?”

“Yes.”

Ye Moxuan pursed his thin lips and said coldly, “Good, buy all the units of the neighborhood she lives in.”

Hearing that, Xiao Su was not surprised at all and simply nodded. However, Ye Moxuan’s next sentence made him widen his eyes. “Ask everyone on the same floor as her to move away in two days.”

“Young Master Ye, that building is almost full of occupants. Such requests may not be feasible…” Even if it could be done, it would be particularly difficult.

Those who could afford to buy a house there were either filthy rich or someone with a prestigious position in society. Although Young Master Ye was very powerful in North City, there were still many people in this world who were not afraid of power. Out of nowhere, he wanted everyone to move away. Who would agree to that? On top of that, he wanted them to move away within two days. Where could they stay?

“Young Master Ye, your request this time is indeed a bit too much.”

“Do you have any better suggestions then?” Ye Moxuan raised his eyebrows and stared at him sharply.

Xiao Su nodded and said slowly, “I checked the neighbors of Young Lady. The layout of this building is like this—two households share an elevator. The unit opposite to Young Lady was bought three years ago, but after the renovation, no one has moved in. I’ve checked the information about this family. It was bought by President Chen from the Chen Group for his son as a coming-of-age present. However, his son will not reach adulthood for two more years, so… we can buy this house first.”

He had finally reached the main point. Upon hearing Xiao Su’s suggestion, Ye Moxuan’s thin lips moved. “You are asking me to move to the unit opposite of hers?”

“Young Master Ye, since you pay so much attention to Young Lady everyday anyway, what’s wrong with living opposite to her?” On top of that, being able to live opposite to the Young Lady is probably what you want the most, right?

Sure enough, Ye Moxuan looked at Xiao Su admiringly. “You finally proposed something that suits me. Okay then, do it now.”

Xiao Su took out the contract and said directly, “I knew that you would agree, so I already contacted President Chen in advance. He is willing to sell it to you as a favor.”

“A favor?” Ye Moxuan repeated this with an evil grin at the corner of his thin lips. “That old man sure knows when to take advantage.” For her sake, I’ll forget it this time.

Ye Moxuan took out his pen and signed his name directly.

“Young Master Ye, you can go over directly after getting off work. This is the key. I will pack everything before you finish work.”

Seeing the satisfactory look in Ye Moxuan’s eyes, Xiao Su was finally relieved. As he failed to accomplish what Ye Moxuan had instructed last night, he deliberately did this with the hopes that he could make up for it. Little did he know he would be successful.

Fortunately…

Han Muzi, Young Lady…

How lucky this woman is to have Young Master Ye do so much for her. Despite knowing that the culprit is a ruthless person, he still valiantly moved to live opposite her to protect her.

Hopefully, they will have a happy ending. Otherwise, Young Master Ye will suffer from doing all these, and her affection toward him back then would be in vain.

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 557

After getting off work that day, Ye Moxuan drove directly to the neighborhood where Han Muzi lived.

At first, he couldn’t find the place, so Xiao Su personally accompanied him to lead the way. Ye Moxuan’s tall figure had attracted the attention of other single women, and two girls followed right behind him when he entered the elevator.

However, Xiao Su and Ye Moxuan did not seem to notice the two girls at all. They just kept talking to themselves.

“Young Master Ye, if you live here, would you like to hire a maid, or—”

Ye Moxuan pursed his lips and said coldly, “Don’t you know my habits?”

“Uh, Young Master Ye, what I mean is—if you don’t do that, you can go to Young Lady’s place to eat with them.”

Ye Moxuan was speechless upon hearing that. He then raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Su.

“Excuse me, do you live here?” Suddenly, the two girls, whose existences were barely noticed, went up to them and asked Ye Moxuan this question.

There was silence in the elevator for several seconds, and no one responded. The two girls looked slightly embarrassed, as there was no expression on Ye Moxuan’s face.

The girls looked a little unwilling to give up as they looked at his handsome profile. One of them clenched her fists and said, “I live here too. Which floor are you on? If you are free, do you want to hang out—”

“Get lost.”

The girl was stunned to find that Ye Moxuan turned his head around and stared her down coldly with a pair of falcon-like eyes that were devoid of any warmth whatsoever. After realizing that he had asked her to get lost, the girl’s face turned pale in an instant. At this moment, the elevator opened with a chime. The girl and her other friend rushed out immediately.

Ding! The elevator door closed again and continued to move upward slowly. Clenching his hand into a fist and putting it near his lips, Xiao Su cleared his throat before saying slowly, “Young Master Ye, you will offend other residents if you behave this way.”

Ye Moxuan did not answer him, but he looked extremely annoyed.

Xiao Su sighed internally. After so many years, Young Master Ye had only ever taken a liking to Han Muzi. If other girls tried to hit him up, he wouldn’t even look at them.

Xiao Su even felt that if Han Muzi was unwilling to forgive Ye Moxuan, he probably would stay single throughout his life.

“So what if I offend them? You didn’t do what I asked you to do, yet you expect me to accommodate their needs?” Ye Moxuan sneered and glanced at him sharply.

Xiao Su suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. That was why Ye Moxuan asked him to move everyone out of here. Someone was bound to annoy him, and Ye Moxuan hated such behavior. However, this was not their territory. And even if it was their territory, it was impossible to drive them away like this.

Ding! The elevator door opened again, and Xiao Su hurried out. “It’s here, Young Master Ye.”

Ye Moxuan glanced at the floor he was currently in. It was on the 18th floor.

He walked out with his long, straight legs while Xiao Su stood in front of a door. “Young Lady lives here, while you live opposite.”

Ye Moxuan pursed his thin lips. With one hand in his pocket, he stared at Han Muzi’s doorway, the corners of his lips slowly lifted into a smirk. Well, we’ll have to see each other every day. Woman, let’s see if you can still run away from me.

Seeing the expression on Ye Moxuan’s face, Xiao Su felt an inexplicable chill running down his spine, so he quickly took out the spare key and went forward to open the door. “Young Master Ye, let me take you around the house first.”

“No need,” Ye Moxuan said coldly. “You can go back now.”

Xiao Su paused for a moment before saying, “Alright, then I’ll take my leave.”

“Continue to investigate the matter and find out the mastermind behind all this. I want to see who is trying to bring trouble to me.”

“I will continue to investigate this matter. Young Master Ye, I’ll leave now. For dinner…”

The two looked at the door of the opposite unit tacitly. Then, Xiao Su silently turned into the elevator and left.

He worried too much about them. After all, Ye Moxuan had already developed a particularly thick skin in front of Han Muzi. He didn’t have to worry about Ye Moxuan at all.

After Xiao Su left, Ye Moxuan observed the surroundings before taking out the key and unlocked the door.

Although the house had been vacant for a long time, Xiao Su, who was very efficient, had already asked someone to clean it up. Even so, Ye Moxuan glanced at the house and saw that the decoration style of the house was not to his liking. If he was going to live here for some time, he probably would have to find someone to renovate it.

…

After Yan took Little Bean back, Han Muzi had nothing to do alone, so she watched some television shows. After a while, when she was bored, she went to draw up a few designs.

Not long after, Yan came back, and she complained nonstop to Han Muzi, “Your brother is annoying. After he rejected me last time, when he saw me again today, he acted as if nothing had happened. Why are men so annoying? He hurt an innocent girl’s soul, but he didn’t even feel guilty at all?”

Han Muzi paused before asking, “An innocent girl’s soul?”

Yan snorted. “Can’t I describe it that way? I haven’t been in love before! Of course, I have the soul of an innocent girl.”

“You have never been in a relationship before?” Han Muzi narrowed her eyes slightly as she doubted Yan’s statement.

Han Muzi’s eyes seemed to have the ability to penetrate through her thoughts. Yan felt that she was seen through immediately, and she was so angry that she ran over and pinched Han Muzi’s neck. “Can’t you let me pretend for a while?”

Han Muzi smiled. “You still want to pretend in front of me? Now I’m wondering how much pretense you put in front of my brother!”

“I don’t have to pretend in front of him anymore, since he has already rejected me even before I could confess my feelings. It seems that I don’t stand any chance in this lifetime anymore, but… I won’t give up. Even if there is no chance, I-I have to continue to work hard. As long as he is single, I can still stay around him, don’t you agree?”

Hearing this, Han Muzi nodded. “That’s right; you are brave.”

Only someone who had not been hurt emotionally would be brave enough to chase after the person she liked. A long time ago, she thought she could too. However, reality had shown her otherwise.

At first, Yan was happy when she heard Han Muzi praising her courage. But after thinking about it, the expression on her face became a little sullen again as she lowered her eyes.

“What’s the use of being brave? If I didn’t do that before, maybe I wouldn’t have been rejected so quickly. Humans don’t need to be so brave sometimes. In that case, I could’ve stayed with him for a while longer.”

The atmosphere suddenly became weird, and Han Muzi cleared her throat lightly. “Okay, let’s stop talking about this. Has Little Bean settled down?”

“Yes, everything is already arranged. Mr. Nan will fetch him to and from school, and your brother will be around as well.”

“Good.”

In the evening, when Yan was cooking, she realized that they had run out of salt, so she said anxiously from the kitchen, “We’ve run out of salt. Can you buy some for me downstairs?”

Thinking about everything that had happened over the past two days, she nodded. “Sure, I’ll go to the supermarket to buy some groceries that can be stocked up at home.”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 558

Yan thought for a while and took off her apron before walking out of the kitchen. “I’ll go with you. I’m worried that it’s not safe outside.”

Han Muzi glanced at the time and said, “It’s still early, so it’d probably be safe. And the supermarket is right downstairs. You can wait for me here.”

Yan thought for a while and replied, “Come back soon, alright?”

“Okay.”

After Han Muzi went out, only Yan was left in the house. The surroundings suddenly became much quieter. She glanced at the curtains that were blown by the wind and suddenly shuddered. I should have gone with Muzi; it feels terrifying to be alone in this house.

Han Muzi took the elevator and went directly out of her neighborhood to the supermarket. When she passed the entrance, there was still no one allowed to approach the crime scene that was being blocked off during the day. Remembering that someone had died there this morning, Han Muzi felt scared, so her pace quickened.

After arriving at the supermarket, she first bought the salt that Yan requested, and then she went to get some daily necessities before going straight to the checkout as she wanted to go home quickly. However, though there were only a few people when she arrived, there was a long line at the checkout when she wanted to leave.

Han Muzi looked down at her watch and realized that it was already peak hour. Left with no other choice, Han Muzi could only line up with everyone else. When she came out of the supermarket after paying, it was already completely dark outside.

Han Muzi held on to her groceries tightly and quickened her pace.

As it had gotten dark, when she arrived at the entrance of her neighborhood, she saw a small light at the place where the suicide had happened from a distance. It looked quite sinister and terrifying. No matter how courageous a person was, they would still have goosebumps when faced with such things—let alone Han Muzi.

When she passed by the crime scene, Han Muzi’s pace unconsciously accelerated. She was only relieved after walking far away from the scene. When she wanted to look back at the spot, she suddenly saw a shadow behind her.

Han Muzi’s breath suddenly paused, and her face turned pale at that moment as she stopped her urge to turn around.

She took a deep breath and slowed down. As she had not reached the dark alley yet, she took out her phone and quickly dialed Yan’s phone number.

Seeing that the dark alley was right ahead but Yan didn’t answer her call, Han Muzi was beyond anxious. After she hung up the call, she subconsciously dialed another number that she had always remembered.

One second… Two seconds… Three seconds… Suddenly, something rang from behind her, and at the same time, the number that she dialed was also connected. The moment she heard the call being connected, Han Muzi immediately said ‘help me’ without a second thought.

With the faint light, she saw the shadow behind her leaping toward herself. Just when she was about to scream and run away from fright, her mouth was covered by that person, and then she was dragged into the dark surroundings next to her.

“Mmph!” Han Muzi’s eyes widened. When she felt that her hands and feet were being overpowered, she was so scared that her heart almost jumped out of her throat. She struggled hard and even opened her mouth to bite the hand of the perpetrator.

“Argh!” When that person was bitten by her, he groaned in pain, but he did not take back his hand. Instead, he said in a low voice, “It’s me!” His deep and dull voice added a mysterious flavor to the darkness. Meanwhile, he also sounded a little annoyed because he was bitten.

Han Muzi paused. She recognized this familiar voice. The next second, tears welled up in her eyes and almost rolled down her cheeks. However, she hurriedly held the urge back, and she felt grateful that they were in a dark corner. That way, the other person couldn’t see how she looked.

In the dark…

Han Muzi was holding the phone in her hand, and the screen displayed Ye Moxuan’s name.

Ye Moxuan held her with one hand and held his phone to his ear in front of her with the other hand. His low voice ebbed into her heart like the sound of a cello. As if he did this intentionally, he spoke into the phone.

The low male voice sounded clear from Han Muzi’s phone and overlapped with his voice in reality. “Looking for me? I’m right in front of you now.”

Han Muzi bit her lower lip. But in the next second, she was so angry that she threw her phone at Ye Moxuan.

Ye Moxuan held her hand and chuckled in a low voice. “If your phone is broken, how can you call me next time, eh?”

After hearing this, Han Muzi became even more furious. She couldn’t believe that he still had the mood to tease her.

She pulled her hand back hard and glared at him. Although she knew that he couldn’t see her in the dark, she still wanted to express her emotions.

She had thought she was being followed by someone else. Because of what happened in the past two days, her emotional defense was very low. She had panicked when she discovered that someone was following her just now. Otherwise, she would not have subconsciously called Ye Moxuan when she was flustered just now.

That was fine, but he just had to see her like this too. Suddenly, panic, anger, sadness, and shame all surged up within her.

“Are you nuts? What are you doing behind me? Don’t you know that you can scare another person to death? You b*stard, are you crazy? You must be crazy!” Toward the end, Han Muzi was so angry that she directly raised her hand to hit Ye Moxuan on the chest.

However, Ye Moxuan merely stood there like a statue and let her fists fall on his chest without saying a word. All while Han Muzi cursed and sobbed.

Seeing Han Muzi like this, Ye Moxuan felt very upset, as if his heart had been punctured. He took all her beatings, but after listening to her sobs, he couldn’t help but reach out and hold her hands.

Han Muzi raised her head in shock. Under the faint moonlight, Ye Moxuan saw the tears in her eyes. There was a stabbing pain in his heart, and Ye Moxuan forcefully pulled her into his arms.

Just like this, she was pulled into his warm embrace without any warning. When Han Muzi reacted, Ye Moxuan’s hand had already wrapped around her waist. His warmth was like sunlight in the dark.

At that moment, she was really frightened. She bit her lower lip as tears gradually flowed out of her eyes. She couldn’t help it anymore.

“I’m sorry.” The vibrations of Ye Moxuan’s hoarse voice entered her ears and felt like it touched her heart through her body. “I will protect you,” he whispered.

Han Muzi didn’t answer him because she had already burst into tears. However, Ye Moxuan continued to speak, “I didn’t know… that the first person you’d think of when you’re panicking is me.”

His words made Han Muzi recover to her senses. She realized that she might have accidentally exposed something in front of him. Thereupon, her expression changed and she reached out to push Ye Moxuan away.

However, he pressed the back of her head to him. “Don’t move.”

“Let me go—mmph.”

Her mouth was covered, and Ye Moxuan lowered his voice. “Someone is coming.”

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 559

At first, Han Muzi didn’t believe him and thought that he was just lying. But when she was planning to struggle, she heard a few footsteps.

Han Muzi held her breath nervously. After all, she was still frightened by her encounter just now. After she was dragged into the dark place by Ye Moxuan, it was easy to see the bright place from here.

Two men who were dressed in black came over to them and looked around anxiously. Then, one of them asked in a low voice, “What’s the matter? Where’s that person?”

“I asked you to keep an eye just now when I went to the bathroom, didn’t I?”

“Damn, didn’t you ask me to wait for you? Who knew you would go to the bathroom for so long? You couldn’t have held it for a while? Now we’ve lost her! How should we report this when we get back?”

While speaking, the two men suddenly stopped. One of them looked around and said, “Do you think she knew that we were following her, so she hid?”

Hearing this, Han Muzi’s breath stopped, and the hand on her lips was released slowly. She widened her eyes. Why is he releasing me at this time? Does he want me to make a sound?

Han Muzi glared at Ye Moxuan in the dark. Just when he was about to say something, the person in front of her suddenly bent down and kissed her without any warning.

Han Muzi didn’t know what to say, nor did she know what to do. She was completely stunned. So he suddenly lets go of his hand at this moment just to kiss me?

Han Muzi’s eyelashes fluttered as she blinked. When she was about to reach out to push him away, she realized that she might make a sound. By then, they would be spotted by the duo outside. So, she stopped her movements and then heard them say something else.

“I don’t think she hid. We have been keeping quite a distance from her, so she probably didn’t know that we have been following her. Besides, this is her neighborhood. Maybe she has already gone back.”

Ye Moxuan squeezed her soft chin with one hand and pried her teeth away with his tongue.

Han Muzi’s hand subconsciously squeezed Ye Moxuan’s collar, and her beautiful eyes widened. The toes in her shoes curled up because she was too nervous to make a sound.

“Then, what should we do? Just go back like this?”

“We’ll have plenty of opportunities in the future. Let’s go back first.”

Hearing the sound of footsteps fading away, Han Muzi gradually became more relieved. Only when the footsteps had completely disappeared did she realize that she should push Ye Moxuan away.

At this time, Ye Moxuan had already deepened his kiss. His tall body pressed against her, and both of their bodies were tightly intertwined with each other. The heat radiating from his body was transferred over to her through her clothes. He felt scorching hot, making her subconsciously want to avoid him.

Han Muzi struggled and backed away as she tried to escape Ye Moxuan’s dominance.

Both of them struggled with each other in the dark for a while—one attacking and the other defending. After a while, Ye Moxuan reluctantly pulled his tongue away and sighed against her fair forehead.

Han Muzi only felt a tingling pain on her lips. She was so angry that she punched him directly. “Let go of me.”

“What is it?” Ye Moxuan chuckled in a low voice. “You didn’t dare to make a noise just now. Now that they are gone, you’re losing your temper on me?”

Han Muzi was silent when she heard that.

“Seeing that I’m someone close to you, you are not afraid of me, eh?”

Han Muzi said, “Let go of me.”

“Muzi.” Ye Moxuan leaned closer to her with his thin lips gently touching hers. “You called me just now.”

This again… When she thought about how she had just exposed her emotions and vulnerability to him, she felt even more ashamed. She pushed Ye Moxuan away hard and turned around to walk away angrily.

“You don’t want your stuff anymore?” Ye Moxuan’s voice came from behind her.

Han Muzi was so angry that she didn’t even reply to him. She walked directly to the elevator in the corridor. She just wanted to go back now. That b*stard, Ye Moxuan.

Ding! After the elevator opened, Han Muzi walked in directly. But as soon as she turned around, a tall figure had appeared in front of her. He carried two bags of things she had just thrown on the ground.

Seeing him, Han Muzi quickly pressed a button to close the elevator, but it would take quite a while for it to close. Ye Moxuan entered with a slight smile on his lips, and he deliberately stood beside her.

Han Muzi’s face was cold as she stayed away from him.

The elevator went straight up and soon reached the floor where Han Muzi lived. When she got out of the elevator, Ye Moxuan also got out.

Han Muzi turned around angrily. “Don’t follow me anymore. I don’t want those things.”

Ye Moxuan raised his head and looked at her furious expression. As she had cried just now, her eyes still looked puffy and red. However, the reddest part was her lips that were swollen. Thinking that it was his masterpiece, a mischievous look appeared in Ye Moxuan’s eyes.

“You bought all these with your own money, you know,” he said.

The look in his eyes was immediately noticed by Han Muzi, who angrily said, “What is that look of yours?”

“I saved you,” he said again. “You should probably give yourself to me as a token of appreciation.”

Han Muzi was silent upon hearing that.

Ye Moxuan stepped forward and leaned down slightly while holding her with one hand. He stared at her with his dark eyes and asked, “Can you satisfy my stomach before satisfying my body?”

Han Muzi didn’t know how to reply to that.

“Haha.”

She stretched out her hand to take the bag from Ye Moxuan. Then, she turned around and walked to the door to enter her passcode. After opening the door, she walked in immediately before looking at the man outside and said coldly, “Thank you for everything today, but what I want to say is that if you didn’t show up, I wouldn’t have gotten a fright, and I might already have reached my place before the two of them found me.” After speaking, Han Muzi closed the door with a loud bang.

Han Muzi leaned against the door with two bags of groceries. When she recalled the two people who followed her just now, she was still anxious. At first, she was frightened because she felt that someone was following her, but later, she found out that the person following her was Ye Moxuan.

She was very angry, but she didn’t expect that someone else was actually following her.

It was very difficult for her to imagine that if Ye Moxuan didn’t show up, or if she didn’t walk faster, she would probably…

After thinking deeper into this, a chill ran down her spine. Han Muzi felt that her life was almost completely disrupted during this period.

She took off her shoes and walked into the house. When she opened the refrigerator to put the items in, she was deep in her thoughts. What about Ye Moxuan? Why did he show up here in the middle of the night? Could it be that he already knew in advance that I will be followed? If he doesn’t know in advance, why did he tell me that someone was coming as if he was trying to remind me on purpose?

Thinking of this, Han Muzi’s movements stopped. Then, she suddenly turned around and walked to the door to open it.

Sure enough, Ye Moxuan hadn’t left yet. He was still standing there in his initial posture, and after seeing her open the door, he raised his eyebrows. “Did you figure it out?”

Han Muzi gritted her teeth and moved to the side. “Come in!”

Ye Moxuan’s thin lips rose into an evil smile as he walked in with a pair of long, straight legs. Han Muzi closed the door so hard that she almost hit his head, but he didn’t seem to mind at all.

Nothing To Give But My Heart Chapter 560

This was the first time Ye Moxuan had been to Han Muzi’s place. After Xiao Su had looked into this, Ye Moxuan heard from him that this house was directly under Han Muzi’s name and that it was her private property.

Even though Ye Moxuan was impressed by her working capabilities in his company back then, he surmised that if this woman was serious about doing something, few people could match her.

Before this, she lacked self-confidence. When her confidence was built up, she was probably the person who would stand out the most in a room. Hence, Ye Moxuan was not surprised at her achievements at all—as if everything was as he expected.

He took off his shoes in the hallway. After seeing that Han Muzi had ignored him, he walked directly inside with a slight smile on his face. Then, he bent down to open the shoe cabinet in the hallway by himself to put his shoes in.

After looking around, Ye Moxuan was taken aback when he saw a row of children’s shoes neatly placed on the top row. These must belong to her child. The kid who called her ‘mommy’ on the phone.

Before this, he didn’t know the gender of her child. After seeing those shoes, Ye Moxuan could confirm the gender. It seemed to be a boy.

Ye Moxuan’s eyes drooped. He didn’t expect that she was still so stupid—she gave birth to the child of that scumbag ex-husband of hers.

From the corner of his eyes, he suddenly saw a pair of large indoor slippers that belonged to a man on the bottom of the shoe cabinet. Ye Moxuan’s expression immediately darkened, and his eyes became cold at this moment. He went silent for a moment before closing the shoe cabinet and walked in barefooted.

At exactly this time, Yan walked downstairs while drying her hair with a towel.

She had gone to take a shower while Han Muzi was out. At this moment, she was wearing pajamas with cartoons on them with wet and messy hair. She said, “Muzi, did you just come back? I heard something. Why—” The rest of the sentence stopped midway as Yan stared at the person behind Han Muzi with wide eyes.

It was a tall man with an aura of dominance. The coldness in his eyes had filled the surroundings in an instant.

“A-A-Am I seeing things, Muzi?” Yan stammered while looking at the handsome-looking Ye Moxuan behind Han Muzi.

If her eyes were functioning well, it looked like Han Muzi brought a man home after coming back from the supermarket. On top of that, this man was none other than Ye Moxuan, whom she had always been avoiding.

Han Muzi pursed her red lips and said in a low voice, “You’re not seeing things. But you should go back and dry your hair first so that you don’t catch a cold.”

Hearing Han Muzi’s reminder, Yan realized that she was still wearing her pajamas. Hence, she bowed subconsciously and said, “I’m heading upstairs. Please make yourself at home!” With that, Yan turned around and hurried upstairs.

Han Muzi looked at Yan, who was leaving anxiously, and turned around to the person behind her, revealing her side-profile. “What do you want to drink?”

An icy voice came from behind. “Whatever.”

His tone was quite cold. Upon hearing that, Han Muzi couldn’t help but frown. What’s wrong with this guy? When I opened the door just now to let him in, he looked mischievous. But after entering my house, his expression changed immediately? Perhaps, he has returned to his usual self? Forget it. I’ll just let him be. He usually has a cold expression on his face anyway.

Thinking of this, Han Muzi said, “Find a place to sit.” Then, she turned around and went to the kitchen.

She opened the refrigerator and looked at the groceries that she was half-way through arranging just now. After recalling that he had arranged everything in the dark and then brought it up for her, she couldn’t help but sigh.

However, when she thought of him following her and scaring her, she was so angry that she took out a bottle of cold water and left the kitchen.

Ye Moxuan was still standing there, maintaining his previous stationary posture while barefooted. As men usually had bigger feet, it looked weird to see his bare feet on the carpet in her house.

Han Muzi walked over and glanced at his foot. “Why don’t you wear slippers?”

Furious, Ye Moxuan’s eyes were cold as he snorted. “Are there any slippers that I can wear?”

Hearing that, Han Muzi was taken aback, and she subconsciously replied, “Isn’t there a pair of shoes that fits you at the bottom of the shoe cabinet? I heard you open the shoe cabinet door just now; didn’t you see it?

She has the guts to mention that? The aura on Ye Moxuan’s body became colder and more intense.

Han Muzi frowned. After all, she still couldn’t stand seeing his feet. Since Ye Moxuan didn’t answer her, she thought he didn’t see it. After putting the bottle of cold water on the table, she got up and walked around. “I’ll help you get it.”

When she passed by him, Ye Moxuan clasped her wrist.

“What are you doing?” Han Muzi looked up at him with a confused expression, and she subconsciously wanted to shake off his hand.

Ye Moxuan’s thin lips were pressed into a firm line, and his dark eyes were full of anger. He stared at her sharply and opened his thin lips slightly after a while. “I don’t need it.”

As if he wanted to explain himself to her, he smiled mockingly. “I don’t wear shoes that others have worn before.”

Han Muzi was speechless upon hearing that. Initially, she thought that it was because he was a cleanliness-freak. But after thinking about it, she figured something was not quite right. When she looked at Ye Moxuan’s hostility, it had finally dawned on her that… the man in front of her was jealous.

She let him in just now and he was perfectly fine, but after he opened the shoe cabinet, his entire aura suddenly turned icy. At that time, Han Muzi was pondering what was going on while wondering why Ye Moxuan’s mood changed so quickly. Who knew that… he got jealous after seeing the pair of male-sized slippers?

She found it quite amusing, and at the same time, she thought that Ye Moxuan was quite stupid. Hasn’t he always been smart? When he deals with sly businessmen, he is so sensible, but when it comes to me, why is he such an impulsive and inexperienced person?

Thinking of this, Han Muzi blurted out, “What do you mean someone has worn it before? Those are the shoes that my brother wears when he comes over.”

As soon as she said this out loud, both of them were stunned at the same time. The reason why Han Muzi was stunned was that she didn’t expect herself to explain this to him. As for Ye Moxuan, he was taken aback because he couldn’t believe that he had forgotten that she had an irritating brother.

Indeed, this was her house; of course Han Qing would come over occasionally. It was completely normal to prepare a pair of men’s slippers there.

After he thought about it this way, the anger within Ye Moxuan had dissipated a lot, but he felt a little embarrassed about it, so he said coldly, “Even if it’s your brother’s, I am a germaphobe. You know perfectly well about that.”

Han Muzi glanced at him irritably and sneered. “Ah, I see. President Ye is a germaphobe. To you, my house is probably full of dust. Would you like to leave?”

Ye Moxuan stared at her. “I only care when it comes to other people—not you. You know that.”

His gaze was focused on her lips. For no apparent reason, Han Muzi thought of the kiss in the dark just now. She felt that her cheeks had inexplicably turned hot.

Indeed, he is a cleanliness-freak, but why doesn’t he feel that it’s unhygienic when he kisses me? Furthermore, he’s always kissing whenever he gets the chance…
