Chapter 712 That&aposs the End of Us

He was delighted to see Muchen's safe return.

But this happened before he could celebrate the return of his friend.

No one could've foreseen such a scary incident like this one, and Muchen's reaction puzzled everyone.

He wouldn't say a single word, and his face was masked with an indiscernible expression.

He also overheard Muchen's directed question at Ziyue. How could he think of that when Zixi's life was in danger?

Muchen didn't answer him. Then, as the silence filled the air, Muchen slowly muttered, "Yes."

Jingshu was utterly stunned. "Why didn't you reveal where he is if you knew? Aren't you scared seeing Zixi in that state? I can't tell what is going through your head."

Suddenly, Ziyue spoke from afar, "Where is he?"

They both turned their heads, surprised to see Ziyue was still back there.

She stood a few steps away from them, her expression cold and grim. She narrowed a stony gaze at Muchen.

Then, she marched towards him and yelled, "Where is Shichu?"

Bai Jingshu had already backed away when she headed toward their direction.

Bessalyn had informed her that Shichu was in Yunzhou City, but this incident occurred before she could start searching for him.

Hence, she did not get an opportune moment to ask Muchen if he knew about Shichu's whereabouts.

She wanted to speak to him about Shichu. After all, Shichu was the one who rescued him.

Although she thought of searching for Shichu, she had no intention of hiding it from Muchen. After everything they've been through together, she knew the importance of communication and honesty in maintaining a healthy relationship.

His tone was edged with an unfamiliar resoluteness. "Do you have to meet him?"

"What has gotten into you? We can do nothing else except bring Shichu to Enxue if we want to save Zixi. It's been two hours since he left school. I…"

She started choking up at the thought of her son.

She covered her eyes with her hands and took a deep breath so the tears wouldn't fall.

She closed her eyes for a short moment to recollect herself. When she opened her eyes again, there was a glint of sorrow in her unyielding glare. "If something happens to Zixi, then that's the end of us."

Muchen's eyes turned icy cold, which slowly narrowed into a gloomy stare.

"You're threatening me?" with an emotionless grunt, his words were forced through gritted teeth.

Ziyue was reluctant to go to such an extent with her words, but she struggled to figure out why he acted this way.

Muchen had always been hostile toward Shichu, but she believed she had clarified her feelings to him. Did he have to hold onto his petty grudge at this critical moment instead of helping their son together?

"As you wish."

Muchen held her hands and walked towards the elevator. Anger rippled through his entire body.

He marched in big steps, so Ziyue had to run to catch up to his pace.

Deep in her heart, she knew that Muchen was taking her to Shichu, so she didn't say anything else to provoke him.

Once they reached the parking lot, Ziyue was reminded that he had hurt his leg. "I'll drive," she said.

Muchen pulled her straight into the passenger's seat and said somberly, "I'm not crippled. I can do this much."

Venom seeped through his words and pierced deep into her heart, leaving her at a loss for words.

The car stopped in front of a villa.

After Ziyue got out of the car, her brows flickered with fear at the sight of the deserted place.

Muchen exited the driver's seat, grabbed her wrist, and dragged her into the villa.
