Huangfu Liyue looked at the report in Lin Ze's hand, and was about to ask something, but Lin Ze quickly carried the report behind his back.

She hesitated to speak, and went upstairs silently.

Mu Jingchen stared at her back until she disappeared from sight before reaching out to Lin Ze.

"Is it something I asked you to send for inspection?"

"Yes."

Lin Ze handed the things into his hands, and carefully looked around.

Seeing that there was no one else in the hall, he said with peace of mind: "Boss, your guess is correct, the murderer of Cheng Cui is really..."

For the next few words, he lowered his voice so that Huangfu Liyue, who was standing upstairs eavesdropping, didn't hear anything.

Looking at Lin Ze's shocked expression, she knew that this matter must not be simple.

Looking at Jing Chen again, his expression is also incredulous.

After closing the inspection report, he frowned, and subconsciously looked upstairs.

Fortunately, Huangfu Liyue reacted quickly and hid behind the pillar, so she was not discovered.

However, Jing Chen and Lin Ze's reaction just now made her extremely curious. Who was the one who killed Cheng Cui that shocked them so much?

-

night.

Huangfu Liyue walked out of the bathroom in her pajamas.

Mu Jingchen was sitting on the bed, his legs covered by the quilt, and he was fascinated by the book.

When Huangfu Liyue approached, he realized that he was not attracted by the contents of the book, but was staring at the book in a daze.

She raised her hand and shook it in front of his eyes: "What are you thinking, so preoccupied?"

He looked up at her and stared at her for a long time.

She was uncomfortable being looked at, touched her cheek with her hand, and asked, "Why, is there something dirty on my face?"

He smiled slightly.

"No."

"Then why were you looking at me just now?"

He put down the book, lifted the quilt and got up, held her face and said: "Madam is beautiful, I can't help it."

She gently pushed him away, and said with a smile: "They all have several children, and they are still so dishonest! Well, it's getting late, stop reading."

After speaking, she went to bed first, but she just sat on the head of the bed and did not lie down.

Because she guessed that he must have something to say to her.

Unexpectedly, he lay down directly and said to her, "Go to bed early."

After hesitating, she couldn't help but ask, "You... don't you have anything to say to me?"

He thought about it.

"Have."

She sat up straight and was about to listen, but he sat up and kissed her on the forehead.

"Goodnight, wife."

Although they are old couples, they haven't been in close contact for a long time, and the occasional teasing still makes her cheeks feel hot.

After saying goodnight, he lay back down again and closed his eyes.

The heat on her cheeks subsided, and her eyes were full of doubts.

All he wanted to say to her was good night?

Realizing that she hadn't lay down, he opened his eyes again.

"what happened?"

"No……"

She answered a little against her will.

But thinking about it carefully, maybe he is too busy these days, and those things that are thousands of miles away are not on his mind.

So, she took the initiative to open the topic: "I suddenly thought about the matter of Guzhen, and I wanted to ask you, has the person who killed Cheng Cui been found?"

"No."

He hardly thinks.

She paused, apparently not expecting such an answer.

In the afternoon, she clearly heard...

Facing his deep eyes, she asked unwillingly: "It's been so long, is there no clue at all?"

He still said: "No."

She opened her mouth and said slowly, "Okay, let's go to bed."

After turning off the lights, she looked at the dark room, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

Why did Jing Chen lie, and who killed Cheng Cui?

She didn't realize that Mu Jingchen beside her was also sleepless.

the next day.

As usual, he said good morning to her and rushed to the company.

She pretended to be asleep and didn't respond. She didn't sit up from the bed until he left.

After getting dressed, she walked out of the room and went straight to the study.

At this point in time, the maid was cleaning inside.

Seeing her, the servant immediately greeted her.

"Good morning madam, why did you get up so early today?"

"I went to bed early last night."

Seeing that the servants had cleaned up almost everything, she said again: "Okay, there's no need to clean up anymore, you can go out."

After the servant nodded and left, she came to the desk and opened the drawer where Jing Chen often kept files.

But after searching for a long time, I couldn't find what I wanted to see.

"Isn't that report here?"

After muttering something in his mouth, there was the sound of the door opening behind him.

She said a little irritably: "Didn't you say that you don't need to clean anymore? Why do you..."

When she turned her head and saw the person coming, she immediately stopped what she said.

"Jingchen, why haven't you gone to the company yet?"

While speaking, she put her hands behind her back and quietly closed the drawer.

But how could this little trick be hidden from Mu Jingchen's eyes?

"I remembered that I lost a file, so I came back to get it, Liyue, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"It's not good to sleep for too long. I want to get up and move around."

She smiled nonchalantly, trying not to look so guilty.

Mu Jingchen came to the desk, took out a document from the drawer, and said to her: "I'm going to the company, you remember to have breakfast, I will come back early in the afternoon to accompany you."

She nodded, but her eyes did not leave the document in his hand.

At a glance, this document is very similar to what Lin Ze held in his hand yesterday.

"What document is so important that you made a special trip back here?"

When she spoke, her hand had already stretched out.

He didn't stop him and let her take it.

"It is the launch plan for the company's new project."

She opened it, and it was exactly as he said, and sent it back in embarrassment.

"No wonder you are so busy these days, so you are busy with these things, well, go to the company quickly."

"Well, let's go."

He responded with a smile and walked out of the study.

Watching him walk away, she took a deep breath.

Fortunately, Jing Chen didn't ask her what she was doing in the study early in the morning, otherwise, she really didn't know how to answer.

Although she didn't find the report, she became more and more curious.

In the past, Jing Chen would tell her immediately about anything, but why did he hide this matter?

-

The gate of Bieyuan.

Mu Jingchen was not in a hurry to go to the company, but handed the document to Lin Ze and said, "You send the things to the company, I have to go to the research institute."

Lin Ze took the document and did not leave immediately, but asked with a worried face: "Institute? Boss, do you want to ask Wei Feng to ask your wife..."

Before he finished speaking, Mu Jingchen stared back.

"This matter, you must rot in your stomach. If Liyue finds out, I will..."

"Boss, I understand!"

After Lin Ze promised, he didn't ask any more questions, and immediately left with the information.

Mu Jingchen glanced behind him, then got into the car, and said to the driver, "Go to the research institute."
