Chapter 305: What have you done with me?

"Business trip? Can't you delay it?" She could hear the disappointment in his voice.

"Er…I can't. Or we can celebrate my birthday after I come back. How about that?"

Tang Yichen chuckled, "Alright, that's good. Well, how about your man? That clingy creature is letting you go?"

Tang Li who was folding her clothes paused, she felt a lump in her throat, "He…is busy with company matters and I'll come very soon. I have convinced him to wait for me."

"And he is easily convinced? If he could do that, that jerk would even follow you inside the bathroom," His cool voice resounded in the large walk-in closet since the phone was on speaker. He did not miss that slight pause in his sister's words.

Tang Li clenched her suit jacket so tightly that it crumpled under her grip. For the first time, she did not feel like correcting her brother for calling Mo Yuhan a jerk. He indeed was a jerk. It was just a kind of situation where men would fuck a woman and leave after zipping their pants, without looking back.

Whatever the situation was, could he not discuss it with her? Was she that fucking useless in his opinion that he did not bother telling her what was going on? He just decided to leave with such a cruel text.

She suddenly felt suffocated but her expression remained calm as if her brother was standing in front of her. Even though they were talking on the phone, she knew Tang Yichen would know if there was something wrong with her. Normally a mother finds out when something is wrong with her child but in her life that mother is her elder brother, it takes him a heartbeat to know if something is wrong with her. She was thankful that he is not in front of her right now.

"Princess, you there?"

"Ah, yes brother. I just came. I was packing my clothes but I almost forgot about my shoes so I went to get them. Did you say something?" She asked, continuing to fold her clothes.

"I asked how did you manage to convince that jerk?" he repeated his question.

Tang Li's lips curved up, "It was truly difficult. You know, he wanted to go there with me despite his busy work schedule. He was even saying that we could take it as a honeymoon but I did not agree to it."

That clingy man! Tang Yichen was pleased with it, "That's better anyway. Where are you going by the way?"

"Country A," Tang Li replied without skipping a beat.

"Alright, pack some warmer clothes. And there are many handsome men out there. You can indulge yourself with some eye-candy rather than being wasted on that jerk," He harrumphed. 

Tang Li chuckled, "How can I do that? You know I've fallen head over heels for him. Bubye brother~ Gotta go," She hung up before her brother could interrogate her further. Moreover, her chopper was arriving in 10 minutes so she decided to go to the terrace.

She picked up the phone before sending a few texts and making a few calls just in case her smart brother finds something amiss. After that, she informed Master Song and Ying Yue about going abroad using the same alibi that she told her brother. They all were planning surprises and gifts to make her birthday special. No matter how much she did not want to disappoint them, she had to find Mo Yuhan.

Outside the walk-in closet, Li Yu's silhouette flashed like a shadow as he sneaked out of the room feeling somewhat guilty. He did not want to invade her privacy either eavesdrop on her conversation with her brother, he was just worried that she would do something to herself and he would not be able to answer President Mo after failing his duty in protecting her.

When he heard her talking to Tang Yichen, he thought she would be crying or whining to her powerful brother or complain about his President. He even took out his phone to record the hateful things she would say about Mo Yuhan so that he could hand it to the man later to show how evil his wife was.

But things turned out differently and she did not do anything like he thought she would do causing him to feel a little guilty.

Soon, Tang Li walked out of her room before making her way downstairs. Before she could walk towards the door, she paused near the kitchen. 

She made her way towards the kitchen before pulling the fridge door open. The chocolate cake that Mo Yuhan had made for her was sitting there untouched. She took it out before placing it on the dining table.

Li Yu was perplexed. What was she doing?

Soon, his eyes widened as he looked at her as if she has grown another head on her shoulder.

Earlier she had pressed a utility knife to threaten Li Yu to know Mo Yuhan's whereabouts. But this time she picked up a butcher's knife and stabbed it into the cake as if it was Mo Yuhan instead.

"Mo Yuhan, you jerk, you almost tricked me this time. You want to get rid of me? Heh~ You should try to do that in another life," She muttered to herself.

She stabbed the cake for so many times that Li Yu flinched. Psychopaths have their own way of dealing with stress. 

Finally, after calming herself down, Tang Li looked at the disfigured cake. She should've felt relieved but then again, her heart ached at the sight of it. He personally made it for her yet she had done this. 

"Mo Yuhan, what have you done to me?" Her voice was barely above a whisper as she leaned on the dining table, her voice was barely above a whisper, "What should I do with you?" She picked up the chocolate cake before eating it. As expected of him, it was delicious. She savored a few slices of the cake before keeping it aside.

No matter how angry she was with him, in the end, she has always come to know that he was doing it for her. Whenever the level-headed Mo Yuhan did something impulsive, the person responsible for it was always her. She just hoped this time the situation was different. As long as he is safe, everything is fine with her.

"Coming with me?" She turned around and asked Li Yu who was standing there with an incomprehensible expression on his face. It would not be bad to take Mo Yuhan's right..oops..ex-right-hand man with her. Maybe finding Mo Yuhan's current location would be easy. Other than that, she felt as if this man has told her a half-truth and he was still hiding something from her.

So, precaution is not a bad thing, yeah?

Li Yu pursed his lips as he nodded his head. Could he decide not to go with this crazy woman? No, of course not. If this woman somehow managed to offend someone or messed something up and ended up dying in States, he wouldn't know how to face President Mo in the future.
