Under Jueyin's terrified expression, Muchen didn't do anything else.
But he stared at Jueyin with a hostile expression and said darkly, "I'll break your legs if there's a next time."
Jueyin hadn't seen much of Muchen in the past two years, but Jueyin was still intimidated by him.
His legs couldn't help but go weak. Sitting on the couch at the side, he wiped the sweat on his forehead and said to Muchen, "There won't be a next time. Not at all. Can… can I call you 'boss'?"
Jueyin was even willing to call Muchen 'master' as long as Muchen didn't make things difficult for him.
Muchen saw how bad Jueyin looked, and he frowned disdainfully. Muchen said, "Was the female servant sent to serve you recently?"
"Yes." Jueyin nodded. His face looked like it was asking, 'How did you know?'
"Grandpa sent her to monitor you. I've dealt with it for you, so you owe me a favor," Muchen said as he straightened his clothes. He looked at Jueyin seriously.
Jueyin cried out in surprise when he heard what Muchen said. "Huh? How did you know Dad sent her?"
The wrinkle in Muchen's brows deepened. He pursed his lips tightly before reaching out to tap his head. "Stop thinking of chasing girls and use your brain instead."
Jueyin was dumbfounded.
"I'm going to leave. Remember that you owe me a favor," Muchen said before he left.
Jueyin furrowed his brows and pondered. How did I end up owing Muchen a favor?
Yuchuan sent a female servant to monitor Jueyin because Yuchuan knew Jueyin and Muchen would be in contact.
The person Yuchuan wanted to keep an eye over was Muchen. What did that have to do with Jueyin? Jueyin was just entangled in it.
He had just caressed Ziyue's waist. She made him trip and break his arm before he could do anything to her. Muchen had also beat him up…
Each move by the husband and wife was more vicious than the other, so why did he owe Muchen a favor?
…
Muchen came out from Jueyin's room. He didn't return to his room immediately but turned a corner instead, walking toward Yuchuan's room.
When he went over, he saw Zheng walking out of Yuchuan's room.
Muchen walked over silently and asked, "Is Grandpa asleep?"
Zheng was thinking about something else. He was caught off guard, and his thoughts were interrupted by Muchen's question. He was briefly startled before he came to his senses. He called out at once, "Master Muchen."
"I asked if Grandpa was asleep?" There was impatience on Muchen's face.
Zheng answered stutteringly, "The Earl… is being examined by a doctor. If you have something to ask him, why don't you…"
Muchen interrupted him. "It's fine. I wanted to ask about Grandpa's health anyway."
He wanted to see if his amazing grandfather had any illnesses.
What surprised Muchen was that Zheng intentionally stood in his way. "Master Muchen, it's getting late. You can look for the Earl tomorrow. He'll be resting after his examination."
Muchen ignored Zheng, who was being like a guard dog. He threw Zheng a cold expression before pushing Zheng aside and walking in.
Walking through the door, he saw a woman with a white coat examining Yuchuan's body.
Muchen raised his brows slightly. Grandpa is unwell.
"Grandpa," he called out before walking over.
Yuchuan lifted his head in Muchen's direction while the female doctor examined his body with her back facing Muchen. She stiffened for a moment.
Muchen realized that the female doctor's figure looked familiar.
When Yuchuan saw Muchen, his expression turned nasty. He angrily picked up a glass beside him and threw it at Muchen. He thundered, "Why are you here?"
"I came to see you," Muchen said expressionlessly as he avoided the glass easily.
He went to Yuchuan and turned to the side to look at the female doctor, whose actions were slightly stiff.
When he saw the female doctor's appearance, his eyes flashed, and his expression quickly turned cold. He called out her name. "Qin Wu."
Wu's entire body froze.
When she heard Muchen call her name, she shivered before greeting him respectfully. "Master Muchen."
Muchen's gaze toward her slowly grew colder. "I never thought I'll see you again in this lifetime."
The cold air seemed to seep through her skin, and she felt it in her bones. They were in a room with sufficient heating, but it was as though she were in a freezer. She felt cold all over.
Yuchuan noticed something, and the rage on his face slowly vanished. "Say what you want. Otherwise, leave. I need to rest."
"Why would I leave? I'm waiting for Wu to finish examining you to look at the results. How can I leave?" Muchen said as he sat at the side.
Wu was distracted for the rest of the examination.
She had been moving stealthily in the castle recently to avoid Muchen and Ziyue.
After all, she had been Yuchuan's private doctor for many years. He was used to her care, so he naturally had some affection for her and always protected her.
Yuchuan wasn't feeling well after returning from Jueyin's room, so Zheng called Wu to examine Yuchuan immediately.
No one imagined that Muchen would come over so quickly.
Wu distinctively remembered what had happened back then.
Muchen wasn't charitable. He wouldn't let those who hurt him live peacefully.
Wu had been anxious for the past few days. At that moment, she calmed down instead.
She had some sort of premonition when she saw Ziyue before.
Although slightly distracted, she had been in Mogwin Castle for decades. She quickly came to her senses and did her job.
Not long after, she had the examination results.
"You're alright, Sir. You might be feeling slightly pent-up, so you need to worry less," Wu said as she packed her things.
Feeling pent-up?
Muchen looked at Yuchuan expressionlessly. It was Yuchuan's own doing.
"Alright, you can leave. I have something to say to Muchen." Yuchuan waved at Wu, signaling for her to leave.
Muchen looked coldly at Yuchuan. He only cared about looking after his people.
He looked down and hid the malice in his eyes. "Mm. Quickly leave. Don't interrupt our talk."
