Chapter 133: Chapter 0133: Return to the Villa
Killing is easy, but eradicating all traces of a corpse is difficult.
Chu Ge took a good half hour to cleanse some traces in the villa, including the blood that had inadvertently been spilled in some corners.
By the time Mu Bingtong woke up, all she could see was the shattered flooring and the chaos that was Mu Changge’s bedroom upstairs.
"What happened...?" Her head was still somewhat dizzy, but Chu Ge sitting by her side seemed to provide Mu Bingtong with great reassurance, hence she could ask calmly.
"Nothing much, those guys just had a bit of conflict... um, destroyed some stuff."
Chu Ge’s lie was so unskillful it was laughable. However, Mu Bingtong was a very intelligent woman. She stared at Chu Ge’s face for a few seconds then nodded, "Oh, it’s fine. I’ll contact the repair company later to have it fixed."
Mu Bingtong obviously sensed something was off but chose not to ask further, which gave Chu Ge a sigh of relief.
To tell the truth, he did not want to involve Mu Bingtong in these hidden world Sect affairs.
"Right!" Chu Ge suddenly remembered something and said to Mu Bingtong, "Uncle Mu... has left."
"Left?" Mu Bingtong had a peculiar look in her eyes, a flicker of complexity passing through.
"Yes." Chu Ge nodded and, after hesitating for a moment, he finally took out his phone and showed Mu Bingtong the lengthy text message, "This is from Uncle Mu. I think you might want to read it."
Mu Bingtong opened her mouth as if to say, "I don’t want to read it", but the words were swallowed back, and she gently took Chu Ge’s phone.
...
After leaving Mu Changge’s villa, Mu Bingtong’s expression was still somewhat off, her eyes red and slightly swollen.
Seeing the smile that Chu Ge was trying to suppress, Mu Bingtong puffed her cheeks and glared at him angrily, "You better not breathe a word of today’s events to anyone!"
Mu Bingtong’s air of vexed cuteness was indescribably charming. Chu Ge replied with a smile, "Okay, I promise I won’t talk about it, but maybe you should wash your face? Your eyes are all puffy from crying."
"You’re still talking!" Mu Bingtong bit her lip in irritation, stomping her foot in frustration and decided to ignore this guy, heading towards her car, "Let’s go home!"
It was already late at night by then, but with Mu Changge gone, Mu Bingtong naturally did not want to stay in the empty villa.
However, as the car approached the villa’s front gate, Mu Bingtong suddenly had a bad feeling.
Colorful lights were flickering from the villa’s windows; even with the gates firmly closed, the thumping sound of music from within could be faintly heard.
"This girl! How many times have I told her not to throw parties in the villa!" Mu Bingtong’s complexion darkened, and she muttered through clenched teeth.
Chu Ge looked in the direction of the villa, a hint of sympathy in his eyes. This girl had her allowance slashed by half last time because of that underground racing incident, and now before her punishment even ended, she’s been caught red-handed again... it’s likely her allowance would be completely docked this time.
In the villa, a girl clad in cool attire was gripping a microphone and screeching out a song, while about seven or eight girls, including Shen Yaoyao, were all gathered on the sofa, covering their ears with disdain and playing games.
Suddenly, Shen Yaoyao paused, looking towards the door with some unease.
"What’s wrong, Yaoyao?" A girl noticed something was amiss and asked curiously.
Shen Yaoyao shook her head and pouted, "I don’t know why, but I just feel a bit panicky..."
"What’s there to panic about?" Another girl chuckled, patting Shen Yaoyao’s shoulder as she spoke, "Didn’t you say your Sister Mu isn’t coming back tonight? We’ll just play until dawn and clean this place up, then it’ll be fine... It’s your turn now, hurry up."
Hearing the girl say that, Shen Yaoyao waved her hand too, suppressing the sudden unease in her heart, "Right, maybe I’m just being a bit paranoid, let’s continue..."
"Click—"
Just as Shen Yaoyao uttered the words "let’s continue," the villa’s front door was suddenly pushed open by Chu Ge, and Mu Bingtong entered with a gloomy face.
"Sister... Sister... Sister Mu!" The little girl’s face turned pale on the spot, and even her speech stuttered.
The several girls nearby also quickly stood up from the sofa, bowing their heads, not daring to look at Mu Bingtong.
Although Shen Yaoyao usually appeared fearless of both Heaven and Earth, anyone who was close to her knew that she was only truly afraid of Mu Bingtong. It was fine when she didn’t make mistakes, but whenever she did and got caught by Mu Bingtong, she’d be like a mouse that had seen a cat.
Shen Yaoyao had already braced herself for a scolding, but, unexpectedly, Mu Bingtong scanned the surroundings and instead of the anticipated reprimand, she sighed softly and said, "It’s already so late, you should have had enough fun. Clean up the living room and get some rest early. There are plenty of empty rooms downstairs in the villa, have your classmates stay over as well since it’s so late."
After speaking, she glanced at Chu Ge, then ascended the staircase.
The atmosphere in the living room was eerily quiet, and it wasn’t until Mu Bingtong’s figure disappeared at the top of the stairs that Shen Yaoyao hurried over to Chu Ge and asked in a hushed voice, "What’s up with Sister Mu today?"
Remembering the text message from Mu Changge, Chu Ge also spoke in a low voice, "Sister Mu had some trouble today, um... she’s probably in a bad mood. You better tidy up quickly and rest early. I’m going to sleep now."
After saying this, Chu Ge briefly washed up in the bathroom and returned to his own room.
He had just sat cross-legged on his bed, about to habitually start circulating his True Qi to regulate his meridians, when the phone beside him suddenly lit up.
It was a text message: "Why do you think he left?"
The message was signed by Mu Bingtong – ever since the last time Chu Ge texted her, Mu Bingtong seemed to have awakened a new attribute, now texting Chu Ge every night. This was the time when her heart was most open.
Chu Ge took a few seconds to calm the True Qi in his body before picking up his phone, his fingers swiftly tapping on the screen.
"The relationship between you two was already quite strained, plus the trouble caused by Zhang Yanxia before she left, the ice between you is probably only getting thicker. Additionally, Uncle Mu also feels guilty towards you and doesn’t really dare to face you, so maybe that’s why he chose to leave."
Mu Bingtong, looking at the text on her screen, bit her lip and sent: "Did I go too far?"
"I don’t think so." Chu Ge’s typing was swift, and he quickly composed a reply: "After all, there are so many years of experience between you. But now that Uncle Mu is back, maybe you two can have a good talk."
