Mu Wan, who was standing on the balcony, did not seem to feel cold at all.

Indeed, compared to what she had experienced in the past three years, this little breeze was nothing.

She was so immersed in her own thoughts that she did not notice the door to the master bedroom being pushed open. A tall figure was standing in the middle of the bedroom.
Gu Tingyuan scanned the room and finally saw Mu Wan on the balcony.

Was she so sick that she couldn’t feel anything?

She was wearing such thin clothes and standing on the balcony to enjoy the cold wind.

“Why are you standing on the balcony instead of lying down?”

The sudden voice startled Mu Wan. She turned around and saw Gu Tingyuan standing there. She could not help but feel surprised.

It was already late at night. Shouldn’t he be sleeping in the guest room as usual? Why did he come to the master bedroom?

Thinking that every inch of land here belonged to him, Mu Wan pursed her lips and returned to her room from the balcony.

“I… can’t sleep.”

He stared at her for a long time before replying coldly, “Death will not free you.”

Mu Wan was stunned and did not understand what he meant.

After a while, she finally understood what he meant.

He wanted to say that even if she did not cherish her body and ended up dying, he would not let her off, right?

He was really a cold-blooded man. Even when facing his sick wife, he would not show any pity.

She walked past him and walked towards the large double bed. Then, she lifted the blanket lazily and replied, “Don’t worry, I won’t die.”
She would never let herself die, at least until her brother was released from prison and the evil deeds of Mu Qingsong’s family were exposed.
Mu Wan laid on the bed. When she looked up, she saw Gu Tingyuan approaching the bed step by step. Her body stiffened.

He…

Was he planning to sleep in the master bedroom tonight?

As the man approached her step by step, Mu Wan’s heart started to beat faster.

“What… what are you doing?” She couldn’t help but ask.

Gu Tingyuan glanced at her and could clearly see the uneasiness and fear on her face.

Was she that afraid of him approaching her?

“This is my room. What do I have to do to get your permission to do what I want?”

Mu Wan paused and suddenly felt that she was extremely stupid.

Gu Tingyuan did not say anything else. Instead, he bent down in front of the bedside table as if he was looking for something.

When he found the things he was looking for, he turned around and walked towards the guest bedroom without even looking at Mu Wan.
As she watched him leave, Mu Wan heaved a sigh of relief.

However…

With Gu Tingyuan’s status in Yu City, perhaps he could help her see Mu Chen?

However, was he willing to help her?

Seeing that Gu Tingyuan was about to disappear from the room, Mu Wan could not help but speak.

“Wait.”

Gu Tingyuan stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her unhappily. “Don’t I have a name?”

Mu Wan was stunned.

His name…

She had not called his name for three years.

This made Gu Tingyuan unhappy every time.

Gu Tingyuan stared at her in silence and didn’t seem to have much patience. Furthermore, he was in a bad mood. Thus, he turned to leave.
“Please wait!” Mu Wan quickly said, but she still did not call his name.

He still stopped, but this time he didn’t turn around.

Mu Wan asked, “Can you do me a favor?”

Her words seemed to have piqued Gu Tingyuan’s interest. He turned to look at her again.

“Do you a favor?”.
