Chapter 552: Incident (1)

They were having a good time in the office. Mu Yuchen kept feeding Xi Xiaye while they talked.
“Let’s go out tonight. The Mooncake Festival is coming soon and I want to buy some autumn clothing for Grandpa. Usually, it’s Mother’s job to do it, but since she won’t be back for a while, I want you to go with me.”
She thought about it when she was drinking the soup and looked at him with her pair of hopeful eyes.
He smiled and patted her head. “If my wife is heading out, of course, I’m going to play the role of her guardian. Finish the soup. I’m all yours tonight.”
“Just tonight? Someone told me before that he’s mine forever…” She gave him a meaningful smile as her eyes turned gentle. In turn, his heart softened and he barely managed to force himself awake.
“Your Mr. Mu would never say something so flirtatious,” he replied calmly while maintaining his usual cool self.
Xi Xiaye chuckled as she glanced at him blushing slightly. She then lowered her head and continued to drink her soup.
Mu Yuchen returned to her normal expression swiftly. He picked up his chopsticks and was about to continue eating when there was a sudden knock on the door. The two of them turned to look.
Zhou Zimo entered with a worried expression on his face.
Xi Xiaye was surprised. Su Chen and Zhou Zimo would visit Mu Yuchen from time to time just to have a drink together or chat for a while. They were pretty relaxed when they came over, but this time…
Mu Yuchen instantly knew something went wrong, so he asked before Zhou Zimo even started talking, “What’s wrong?” He also stopped what he was doing.
“Please come to the Su family with me. Su Chen angered Elder Su and he experienced high blood pressure. Su Chen said he’s going to run away from home after being scolded. No one knows where he is now. His parents have looked for him high and low the whole night and he’s nowhere to be found. Don’t you think it’s really childish of him?”
Zhou Zimo walked over to pour himself a glass of water and gulped it down.
“Elder Su is having high blood pressure? How is he doing?” Mu Yuchen frowned and grabbed a tissue to clean his mouth as he took the glass of tea Zhou Zimo handed him.
“I heard it’s pretty bad to the point that Su Chen was almost imprisoned at home. This only happened once before when we just left the army. Su Chen was forced to work at the Traffic Management Bureau because of that. Otherwise, he’d have gone to the border already.”
Zhou Zimo seemed really worried. “To be honest, I do think the elder is quite forceful. Knowing Su Chen’s personality, it’s not easy even for him to give in once.”
“They’ll have to do something about their elders at home. Is Su Chen still missing?” Mu Yuchen asked as he picked up his phone and started to call Su Chen.
“Don’t bother. It’s switched off! I spammed his phone with calls all day.” Zhou Zimo pinched the space between his eyebrows helplessly.
“Why is there a sudden conflict?”
Xi Xiaye knew that Elder Su was pretty strict and that Su Chen had a lot of restrictions placed on him. Su Chen was a carefree person who never liked to be confined. He usually complained a lot in his conversations with Mu Yuchen.
“It’s autumn now. It’s just the season to harvest opium poppy. Several countries near the border are having great harvests this year, so things won’t be very peaceful around there. The main cities issued orders to send more people over. It’s classified information which I’m not very sure about. It seems like Su Chen wants to go, but the elder objected to it,” Zhou Zimo explained.
Xi Xiaye frowned. She understood what Elder Su was thinking well enough.
Like the Mu family, the Su family only had one male heir, and they would never agree to send Su Chen to such a dangerous mission. Back then, because the elder disagreed to let Su Chen go to the border, Su Chen was forced to change his career like Mu Yuchen and Zhou Zimo.
“I heard about this before. Su Chen mentioned it to me, but I don’t agree with his idea as well.” With knitted eyebrows, Mu Yuchen gave it some thought. “But I do understand what he’s thinking.”
“After all, he’s just trying to avoid marriage, isn’t he? His life is perfect here and there’s no need for him to go so far away. That’s the only thing that bugs him.” Zhou Zimo glanced at Mu Yuchen.
“Let’s find him first. Give the elder a call and tell him not to worry. We’ll find him.”
Mu Yuchen started to have a headache. He put down his teacup and looked at Xi Xiaye. “Xiaye, stay at the office first. Postpone the meeting later to tomorrow. Otherwise, just hold the meeting without me.”
Xi Xiaye nodded. “Find him first. I’ll take care of the meeting. There’s not a lot on the agenda anyway.”
He patted her head. “Alright, the documents are all on the table.”
“Mmm.”
He quickly grabbed his coat and rushed out with Zhou Zimo. Xi Xiaye started to worry when she saw that their expressions seemed terribly grim.
