In the deep silence of the night, at the Hudson familys villa.
A slender figure slowly climbed over the wall...
"President, Miss Mu, shes... shes climbing the wall again."
The butler, Mr. Lee, looked with a mix of embarrassment and concern at the man sitting in the leather chair, staring at the surveillance screen.
The room was pitch black, with only the moonlight outside and the red glow from the screen intermingling.
"Get a cushion and let her in."
After a long while, a voice of indifferent laziness spoke, showing no trace of fluctuation.
Outside the villa, a certain woman clung to the wall, cautiously peeking her head out, looking around furtively.
"Strange, the wall wasnt this high yesterday..."
Mu Wanyuan stared at the slightly higher ground and decided to take the risk; nothing ventured, nothing gained!
If Mr. Hudson King didnt agree today, she was doomed!
Huh?
Why is it so soft, and the texture is surprisingly pleasant!
Mu Wanyuan suddenly opened her eyes and couldnt help but smile.
Someone had kindly placed a cushion here for her!
She stood up, dusted off her bottom, and pulled out the map of the Hudson estate that she had spent a fortune to acquire.
After a few turns, she arrived at the door of Hudson Kings study.
Today, she got in exceptionally smoothly.
Mu Wanyuans gaze fell on the doorknob, took a deep breath, and cheered herself up.
She opened the door, and Mu Wanyuan was stunned.
The room was so dark she couldnt see her hand in front of her face, and the Hudson King she was looking for was nowhere to be seen.
As soon as she stepped in, something even more alarming happened!
The door behind her seemed to have eyes and slammed shut by itself!
Mu Wanyuan was startled and jumped half a meter away, her heart pounding.
"Um... Mr. Hudson, are you there?"
Mu Wanyuan cautiously called out, but the room remained deathly silent.
"Im a reporter from Sunshine Entertainment News; youve seen me before, I need to talk to you..."
Still, there was no response.
"Miss Mu, is the Hudson familys wall something you can just climb?"
A cold voice came from above, and Mu Wanyuan looked up in surprise; this voice, it was him!
Before Mu Wanyuan could think of how to respond, a sense of dizziness and weightlessness hit her.
Then, a chilly fragrance entered her nostrils. Although she couldnt see anything, she could still sense that he was looking at her!
After a while, sensing no hostility from Hudson King, Mu Wanyuan slowly spoke, extremely aggrieved.
"Uh, I didnt mean to. Ive come to your house seven or eight times, and four times your security guard at the gate let the dogs chase me, twice I was spotted at the back door before I could get in. I had no choice but to climb the wall..."
If it werent for Hudson Kings insistence on pressing charges, she wouldnt have been in such a difficult situation where her career was at stake.
"So, what do you want to do?"
Hudson Kings eyes darkened as he propped one hand against the wall, looking down at the small figure beneath him.
"As long as youre willing to drop the charges, Ill do anything!"
Mu Wanyuans eyes lit up at the prospect, her tone couldnt help but be cheerful.
"Knock knock—"
Before Hudson King could say anything, a series of urgent knocks on the door interrupted.
"Young master, Miss Song is back, the servants cant stop her; shes already upstairs..."
Accompanying the butlers voice was the sound of the light being switched on.
The sudden brightness made Mu Wanyuans eyes slightly uncomfortable, but the handsome face that appeared before her, magnified countless times, still took her breath away.
"As long as I drop the charges, youre willing to go through fire and water?"
Mu Wanyuan heard the man in front of her finally, and her eyes brightened.
"Sure, whatever I can do, Ill definitely help."
"This..."
Hudson King raised an eyebrow, his lips curling into a slight smile as he directly reached out and pulled Mu Wanyuan into his arms, lowering his head to her ear and lowering his voice, "Its up to you."
The voice in his ear had just fallen when a commotion came from outside the door.
"Miss Song, you cant go in there!"
"Why cant I? How dare you stop me?"
The door was almost kicked open, hitting the wall with a loud noise.
All the Hudson familys servants outside, and the woman at the door with a "main wife" stance,
At this moment, all eyes were on the two of them.
Mu Wanyuan widened her eyes; she had come to ask Hudson King to drop the charges and clear up the rumors, but now it seemed like she was getting into deeper trouble.
She gave a dry laugh, trying to break free from the arm around her waist, only to find that she couldnt move at all.
"No, I, we..."
Song Wanlin narrowed her eyes, seeing Hudson King, her arrogant demeanor weakened a lot, and her tone softened instantly, "Tingchen, Im back, who is this?"
Hudson King didnt even lift his eyelids, his slender fingers brushing through the hair on Mu Wanyuans shoulder.
"Wanyuan, shall we go out for dinner tomorrow?"
The gentle tone was almost dripping with sweetness, making Mu Wanyuans heart tighten, her eyes full of doubts, but she couldnt push him away.
She raised her eyes and saw Hudson King squinting, his thin lips moving without making a sound.
"Help."
Mu Wanyuan immediately understood his meaning; he wanted her to help block his unwanted suitors.
She then looked at the woman in front of her, dressed in the latest Chanel fashion, carrying a bag, and adorned with jewelry, clearly a wealthy young lady raised in a prestigious family.
Such a beauty couldnt catch his eye; his standards were really high!
Thinking of this, Mu Wanyuan still curled her lips into a sweet smile, her slender arm encircling Hudson Kings waist, "Okay, I want to eat at that Thai place in the citys east."
"No problem, its your call."
Hudson Kings eyes flickered, a trace of a smile crossing his eyes.
The servants outside had been dismissed by the butler, leaving only Song Wanlin standing at the door like an "outsider".
She had come back from afar just to reconcile with Hudson King. She had humbled herself to stand here, only to be ignored for an unknown woman.
When had she, Song Wanlin, ever suffered such humiliation? Her beautiful eyes filled with jealousy and hatred.
"Who are you? How dare you flirt with Tingchen in front of me!"
Mu Wanyuan glanced at the person at the door, sneered, and leaned further into Hudson Kings arms.
"This unknown miss, shouldnt I be the one asking you that? Tingchen and I were discussing where to eat tomorrow, why did you have to barge in? Are you trying to seduce my man as well?"
If it werent for Hudson Kings presence, Song Wanlins face would have almost cracked. Even if they didnt reconcile today, it wouldnt be this womans turn.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me like that!"
"The important thing is not who I am, but who Tingchen sees me as."
Mu Wanyuan smiled cleverly, her hand on Hudson Kings waist, looking like a triumphant little woman.
Song Wanlins hands, hanging by her sides, clenched and unclenched, glanced at Hudson King, who still looked indifferent, with no intention of speaking up for her.
She glared at Mu Wanyuan fiercely, then forced a smile as she looked at Hudson King.
"Tingchen, I will come again. Our years of feelings shouldnt end like this, besides, this woman doesnt match you at all!"
After saying that, Song Wanlin glared at Mu Wanyuan several more times before leaving in her high heels, her eyes filled with jealousy and malice.
