Chapter 920: The More He Cares the More Dangerous She Becomes

“Mrs. Wen!” Mu Xiaojiu’s voice was hoarse as he suddenly stood up, looking down at Wen Yu with tightly clenched palms.

No matter how painful his throat was, it couldn’t stop his determination to speak, “I’ve said it, she has nothing to do with this! And I won’t allow anyone to lay a finger on her.”

Wen Yu looked at him, her thin lips trembling slightly, her eyes filled with shock.

Mu Xiaojiu knew he had overreacted, the more he showed this kind of response in front of her, the more dangerous it became for the little creature.

Yet, when he found out they had intent against her, he couldn’t hold back at all.

He was never that impulsive, even losing his composure, this time he was truly anxious.

Wen Yu’s expression became increasingly grim, her palms clenched as well.

“Jiu, you’ve really changed.

You’re actually losing your cool over a woman.”

“I’m sorry, Mrs.

Wen.”

“Forget it, with that duck voice of yours, I’d find it unpleasant if you kept talking anyway.”

Wen Yu stood up and walked over to the window, turning her back to him, her mind in turmoil, she couldn’t even calm herself.

Jiu’s feelings for that girl were already so deep.

He was always stable and never acted rashly, but just now he had become impulsive because of her.

She had just casually mentioned that the girl wouldn’t live past three days, without even deciding to act against her, yet he was already so nervous.

Had they all underestimated the girl’s influence on him?

Mu Xiaojiu walked up behind her, remaining silent.

With her back to him, he couldn’t see her facial expression and didn’t know what she was thinking at the moment.

But, if they were to go after the little creature, he would never allow it.

Only, he was also incapable of raising a hand against them, he didn’t even know why the thought of “striking at them” had started to appear in his mind.

How could he repay years of kindness receive with…

“Jiu.” After a while, Wen Yu finally composed her facial expression and suppressed the anger in her heart, turning to look at him.

She had calmed down, her words coming out softer, “I can help you hide this for a little while, but you must end this matter.”

“Mrs.

Wen…”

“Don’t talk, seeing you like this, it pains my heart.”

She walked over and grasped his hand, knowing he would resist, so she only held it briefly before letting go.

Even with his own elder, as long as it was a woman, he was very resistant.

Yet such a cold and heartless man had actually fallen into the hands of a young girl.

“What would he look like if he knew?”

She looked at Mu Xiaojiu with a hint of helplessness in her eyes, “You know his health condition; he can’t take any sort of shock.”

“I can hide this matter for you, but you must resolve it quickly.”

Mu Xiaojiu looked at her, silent, his eyes growing even deeper, more inscrutable.

Even Wen Yu couldn’t be sure what he was thinking at that moment.

This kind of Jiu made her feel somewhat alienated and a bit uneasy.

“You wouldn’t give up the plans of so many years for this girl, would you?”

“I haven’t.” He could assure them of that, absolutely not.

He just wanted to adjust the plan a bit, but for them, the plan was unchangeable.

But, these things he couldn’t say to them, and they would definitely not agree.

He just hoped, could they give him a little more time, just a little bit?
