Chapter 903: Chapter 593: Mu Mu Takes Pleasure in Others’ Misfortune (Second Update)

That night, stars twinkled in the night sky, and the moon was already a half-crescent, yet it couldn’t separate the reunion of two stars.

When Jing Chen lay down beside her, Mu Lin had already gently awakened, while the child slept soundly in the little bed beside them.

"Why did you come back so late?" Wasn’t he supposed to be back in the afternoon?

"I was with them in training for a while." Since Mu Lin had become pregnant up to now, he had not gone to the troops at night for a long time, and they had been training by themselves. His visit today happened to be just a trip.

"Hard work." Mu Lin unconsciously shrank into his arms, looked up, and softly said, "Go to sleep early."

In the moonlight, the cool lustre in her eyes was radiant, meeting those dazzling obsidian-like eyes, but seeing the faint glimmering light at the bottom of his eyes, Mu Lin unconsciously froze for a moment.

Her grandpa, how could he still look so spirited.

She thought Jing Chen was going to say or do something else, but the next moment she saw him slowly lie down, then turn to embrace her entirely, letting her nestle in his arms as if she were a curled-up kitten... languid.

After a slight snuggle, Mu Lin’s lips slowly curved into a smile.

Indeed, only in his arms did she feel most comfortable and secure.

Thinking about this, he bent down to kiss her hair, feeling that time was passing painfully slowly.

Mu Lin wanted to look up, but unfortunately, her head was being held down, immobile, with her cheeks pressed tightly against his burning chest, confused, entirely like a little one in a fog.

"After you gave birth, I once asked Doctor Mei." Jing Chen’s deep and profound voice rose, and by now, it had completely calmed.

Mu Lin asked instinctively, "What did you ask Doctor Mei?" For some reason, Mu Lin felt a strange sense of foreboding about this question... unsure what it might be.

What would her grandpa ask about?

Since it’s about asking Doctor Mei, it should be related to Chinese Medicine, but if it were just about Chinese Medicine, why not ask her, as she was also known as the little Divine Doctor, wasn’t she?

Mu Lin noted that in B City, she was also quite famous.

Of course, Jing Chen didn’t know the little scheming happening in Mu Lin’s mind at the moment, he simply continued calmly, "I asked Doctor Mei," and when saying the last two words, his head lowered slightly, closer to Mu Lin’s ear, his warm breath spilling out.

"..." In that moment, Mu Lin was stunned, "What did you just say?" She didn’t catch it.

Ahem... she had accidentally gotten distracted.

Hearing Mu Lin’s voice as if he had already seen Mu Lin’s reaction, Jing Chen lifted his lips, patiently repeating: his voice became more emphatic, as if deliberately so.

Especially when facing the woman he loved, it was really hard to restrain himself.

After hearing clearly, Mu Lin frowned, "Then why didn’t you ask me?" Wasn’t she the one directly involved? And she was a doctor herself.

"Regarding pregnant women, Doctor Mei is more knowledgeable than you are," Jing Chen replied without hesitation.

Mu Lin: "...Okay, I admit it." He was really putting her down, but what Jing Chen said... was indeed the truth.

"So what did Doctor Mei say?" Mu Lin was actually curious to hear.

Doctor Mei said," Jing Chen sighed, he hadn’t thought back then that they would have to wait this long, that there was still so much time to go.

"Why?" The little Divine Doctor expressed her confusion.

Sigh... Jing Chen felt quite troubled.

Of course, when he asked back then, Doctor Mei had indeed warned him thoroughly.

It concerned Mu Lin’s health, and Jing Chen certainly wouldn’t act carelessly.

"So that’s how it is." She finally understood today why during this period of time Jing Chen, despite being ready, had still held back, and that was the reason.

She never expected Jing Chen to actually be so compliant with medical advice.

Mu Lin chuckled softly, finding Jing Chen in this state... unexpectedly cute.

"Don’t laugh." Jing Chen’s voice was muffled, as if there was a touch of annoyed emotion in it, as he pressed Mu Lin’s head, which had lifted up again to playfully look at him, back into his embrace, "Two months later, I’ll see how I deal with you." By then, don’t even think about getting out of bed.

How dare he laugh at me.

Mu Lin said that he would have to endure for two more months... oh, no, it was one month and twenty-seven days before Jing Chen would have it hard. Come here, let me comfort you with a hug.

This is clearly schadenfreude, isn’t it?

O（∩_∩）O~

On the other side.

"Bang!" In a study in B City, a man violently swept everything off his desk onto the floor, his expression filled with anger, even ferocious, somewhat frighteningly so.

Under the dim light, his slightly graying temples flickered with a silvery gleam. This man was past middle-aged.

Tsk tsk tsk... not taking care of one’s health. Don’t you know that getting too angry can lead to an early grave?

"Bi’an!" he snorted heavily, then sat back down in his chair with great force, leaning back and gasping for breath.

He was considerably upset.

"Don’t think that without your help I can’t do anything. Even without you, I can still achieve my goals and ambitions," the man said coldly, gazing at the clock not far in front of him, and laughed scornfully again. "Fine, if you’re planning to leave, then don’t blame me for finding someone else to collaborate with." He snorted coldly to himself, "I’ll see who’s in a hurry then... you or me."

"It looks like you’ve completely forgotten that without me, your so-called organization was nothing at all." If it wasn’t for his help in the beginning! The man was furious at Bi’an’s heartless betrayal, but he hadn’t considered that without Bi’an’s aid, how could some of his rivals have ’naturally’ disappeared without a trace.

And for Bi’an, even without him, there would be others, or perhaps there was no need to rely on anyone at all; roping him in was only to speed up things slightly; to Bi’an, he was not... that important.

Now... he probably didn’t yet realize that he had completely lost... his value to be utilized.

In fact, what really made the man angry was that Bi’an had been increasingly negligent towards his requests lately. This time, it was so hard to contact those people, but once he kidnapped that kid, he could develop good relations with them, which would also help his rise to power in the future, having one more supporter. He thought it would surely succeed, but unexpectedly... the man had fully concluded that Bi’an had begun to turn his back on him.

This was not the first time his mission had not been accomplished.

What angered the man the most, however, was not only Bi’an but also Mu Lin, that woman!

The failure of the last mission was because of her, and this time, it was because of her again! He now found this woman extremely uncomfortable to look at and had even ordered Bi’an to dispose of her as quietly and quickly as possible.

Just before Bi’an left, during that phone call, but!

Suddenly, his fist came down hard on the desk in front of him, yet he didn’t feel any pain.

He actually... gave him three words directly: "Can’t do it!"

The man simply didn’t believe that there was anything in this world that Bi’an wanted to do but couldn’t. It wasn’t that he couldn’t, it was that he simply didn’t want to.

Don’t think I don’t know what he’s thinking.

He let her go the first time, and now he’s let her go again. He couldn’t possibly... have really fallen for that married woman, could he?

It must be said, the man... guessed right.

He snorted coldly.

He had seen that woman at the Jing family’s wedding. Heh, she was indeed pretty and was said to be highly skilled in medical arts, even having been secretly recruited by Jing Chen into his team as a military doctor.

But he didn’t believe it was just about being a military doctor; that was too simple.

They say that Mr. Jing of B City has no interest in women, but it seems that is not so; how superficial.

If he had known earlier that Mr. Jing liked beautiful women, he would have had someone get close to him long ago.

That way, there would be no need to be so cautious.

Rising to his feet slowly, the man paced toward the bed, looking out the window at the twinkling stars, when the corners of his mouth slowly began to curl up.

Bi’an, since you’re unwilling to lay a hand on that woman, then you can’t blame me. If you won’t take action, then I’ll do it myself.

He would absolutely not allow anyone to stand in his way, and Mu Lin had already obstructed his path twice. Such a person couldn’t be left alone.

After all, there’s a saying, "Three strikes, and you’re out," isn’t there?
