Chapter 693: Chapter 692: Too Close, Keep Some Distance_1

Su Wanxia, who was feeling happy, immediately froze upon hearing Mu Ziqing’s words. Despite Mu Ziqing’s effort to control her voice, a suffocated sob could still be heard.

"Qiqi..." Su Wanxia called out cautiously.

Mu Ziqing felt an even stronger bitterness in her eyes. She did not want to stay here a moment longer, she wanted to return to C City, she wanted to go home.

"Mom, come to pick me up, the sooner the better, and also, don’t call this number again, I borrowed it from a stranger..."

Su Wanxia immediately became anxious, "Qiqi... What’s happening? You..."

Before Su Wanxia could finish, Mu Ziqing, holding back tears, ended the call. Isabella was here, and she did not want to be laughed at.

After hanging up, she immediately deleted the call record and then handed the phone back to Isabella.

Isabella took it, looked at her red-rimmed eyes, and scoffed softly, "Such a crybaby..."

Mu Ziqing could not be bothered with her at this moment. She did not want to see anyone here.

"You can leave now..."

"You should thank me..." Isabella said with her arms crossed as she looked at Mu Ziqing.

Mu Ziqing sneered, "The person who wants me to leave the most is you. Isn’t this what you wanted? Do you really want me to stay here forever?"

Isabella was left speechless by Mu Ziqing’s retort. Although she was annoyed, she didn’t want to argue anymore now that Mu Ziqing had decided to leave, and after all, once she left, Huo En would be hers alone.

"I wish you a happy homecoming in advance..."

Mu Ziqing turned away and stopped looking at her; they were merely using each other. She wouldn’t thank her simply for borrowing her phone.

Seeing that Mu Ziqing was ignoring her, Isabella didn’t press the issue and left with a huff, her high heels clicking as she went.

It was only when Mu Ziqing heard the door close that she sank into the couch and silently allowed her tears to flow.

Meanwhile, far away in C City, Su Wanxia was panicking like an ant on a hot pan after being hung up on by Mu Ziqing.

Rising from her seat in the living room, she ran upstairs to the study.

"Achen! Achen, something’s wrong! Qiqi’s in trouble!"

The urgent look on Su Wanxia’s face gave Mu Yingchen quite a scare, especially the words she uttered, "Qiqi’s in trouble?"

Mu Yingchen was startled and immediately stood up from the desk.

"What happened to Qiqi?"

When asked by Mu Yingchen, Su Wanxia paused, standing there breathing heavily, dazed.

After a moment, she said, "I don’t know..."

Mu Yingchen was exasperated...

"Sweetheart... don’t panic, take it slow..."

Su Wanxia broke out in a sweat and then seriously said to him, "Just now, Qiqi called saying she wants to come back, and she’s asking us to pick her up. What’s most important is that her voice sounded like she had been crying..."

Having heard Su Wanxia’s explanation, Mu Yingchen’s heart relaxed somewhat. The older he got, the less shock he could take; he had thought something dangerous had happened to Qiqi.

However, it seemed--

"Did she say why?"

Su Wanxia sighed, "Not only did she not say that, but she also hurriedly told me to pick her up and hung up right after, and the phone she used was borrowed!"

Mu Yingchen’s brow furrowed. It seemed the situation was worse than he had imagined.

"I think there must be some problems between her and Huo En, but what should we do?" Su Wanxia said worriedly.

From Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao to Shanshan and Mojing, and now to Qiqi and Huo En, all this trouble comes from matters of the heart.

Mu Yingchen stretched out his hand to rub his forehead, thinking that Huo En was rational and mature, so he probably wouldn’t have any conflict with Qiqi.

But Qiqi had only been with him to E Country for half a month when she called to come back. What could have happened? And why did they need to pick her up?

"Call Yaoyao... he’s closer to E Country right now, let him and Xiaoxiao check out what happened..." Mu Yingchen looked at Su Wanxia and said.

Su Wanxia blinked at Mu Yingchen and then nodded, "Right, letting him go would be much faster than us..."

Mu Zisu and Na Xiaoxiao hadn’t gotten married yet, but their honeymoon had already lasted half a month, to the point where the staff couldn’t help but verbally complain. This wasn’t about shooting wedding photos, it was clearly a honeymoon; it was outright torture for all the single folks.

"You’re too close, move apart a bit..." The photographer looked at the couple hugging tightly in the viewfinder and repeated this line once again.

When photographing other couples for wedding photos, the phrase he said most often was: Get closer, smile.

But photographing the young master Mu’s wedding photos, the phrase he said the most was: You’re too close, move apart a bit.

Mu Zisu frowned dissatisfiedly and then released Na Xiaoxiao a little.

"OK!" After capturing the last perfect shot, the photographer finally sighed with relief. Three scenic spots in half a month, he couldn’t take it anymore. If this got out, it could break some kind of world record in Venice.

Proud and spirited, Mu Zisu took Na Xiaoxiao’s hand, "Are you tired?"

Na Xiaoxiao smiled and shook her head: "Not tired..."

Mu Zisu looked at Na Xiaoxiao’s exquisite face and was about to lean in for a kiss when the voice of a bodyguard interrupted.

"Young master... phone..."

Actually, the bodyguard wasn’t lacking perception; he really didn’t want to disturb the sweet moments of the young couple, but seeing the caller ID, he had to take the initiative to bring over the phone.

Mu Zisu frowned unhappily, but after looking at the phone, he raised an eyebrow. Why was his dad calling at this time?

"Dad..."

"Yaoyao, there seems to be a small issue with Qiqi and Huo En. You and Xiaoxiao go take a look..."

Upon hearing Mu Yingchen’s words, Mu Zisu raised an eyebrow. Wasn’t everything fine when they left?

How could there be an issue in just half a month?

He wanted to ask for the full story of the situation, but Mu Yingchen couldn’t give a clear explanation, only sharing what he knew.

Mu Zisu nodded with a slight furrow in his brow; if the situation wasn’t serious, Qiqi wouldn’t have called home asking to be picked up.

After hanging up, Na Xiaoxiao asked Mu Zisu, "What happened to Qiqi?"

Mu Zisu hummed affirmatively and looked at her, "We’ll have to go and see to know..."

The wedding photo shoot had just ended, and the group split into two; the staff went directly back to C City.

Mu Zisu knew where Huo En lived after the incident where he saved Na Xiaoxiao before, so he took Xiaoxiao and a group of bodyguards and headed directly to the capital of E Country.

As night fell, Huo En returned to his bedroom on schedule as usual.

Seeing Mu Ziqing sitting on the sofa and staring blankly, he walked over with a hook of his lips, "I’ll take you out tomorrow for a change of scenery..."

Mu Ziqing turned her face away as if she hadn’t heard, obviously unaware of Isabella’s visit today.

Indeed, it would be expected that nobody dared to defy the Duke’s wishes.
