“Where is she?” Venus Mu asked.
“She…I don’t know where she is…” Kerry Ye paused. He then put down his chopsticks and said to
Venus, “Enjoy your meal. Excuse me, I have to go now.”
Without waiting for Venus to speak, he got up and left the restaurant in strides.
His back revealed a sense of loneliness and depression, and Venus thought that if she was just Yan
Chu, she might fall in love with such an affectionate man, but she wasn’t her.
“Kerry, I don’t like you at all, why do you have to be like this?”
This night, as soon as Kerry returned home, he locked himself in Venus’s bedroom. When it’s time for
dinner, John went up and knocked on the door, but no one answered, so he shook his head and went
downstairs.
It had been a long time since Kerry had been like this. What happened again?
“Henry He, what happened to young master today?”
Henry shrugged and sighed, “A business partner came from Hong Kong two days ago and it’s a
woman.”
“A woman? What’s the problem?”
Henry leaned close to him and whispered, “This woman is like the young lady.”
John stared at him in surprise, “Really?”
Henry shook his head, “It’s not the appearance, but the temperament, the back and even the voice.
When he first saw her, he even regards her as young lady.”
“Seriously? I’d like to see her.” John looked helplessly upstairs.
Henry sat in his chair and said with a heavy expression, “John, I mean if, if we can never find the young
lady, what will the young master do? He can’t go on like this forever, right?”
John had obviously thought about this too, and said with a sad face, “I don’t know, it depends on him.
Of course, it’s best if young lady can come back.”
“That’s the best result.” Henry said casually.
John glared at him, “Bastard, show some respect to me, OK?”
“Oh, John, I’m sorry.”
Upstairs, Kerry was sitting on the sofa, drinking wine. There was a photo from his wedding day on the
table, which cost him a long time to find it.
After marriage, he actually didn’t even have a photo Mu Venus, let alone a single photo of her.
How ironic was it.
…
The cooperation was going smoothly, and during the following days, the contracts were almost finished,
but Venus still hadn’t made any progress.
Ever since that day at the restaurant, Venus had noticed that Kerry had become estranged from her
and had almost no personal contact with her except for the necessary courtesies.
Was it because he wanted to be loyal to Venus?
Venus was a little bit annoyed and a little bit gloating by this conclusion.
She wanted to save her son, but also wanted to have no relationship with Kerry, which was easier to
say than do.
The treasure map couldn’t be kept in the company, so it’s most likely in the study room of Ye family’s
villa, which she desperately wanted to escape from in the past, but now she had to find a way to get in.
But how?
Kerry’s life was highly regulated. Every day was about work and home, with no other entertainment.
There was no other way for her to contact him except the office. If this went on, she wouldn’t be able to
complete the task even if she was given a year.
This afternoon, Kerry and Shixuan Tang finally finished the last contract.
“Thank you, Mr. Ye. Last time, Mr. Ye invited us to dinner, so today, it’s MK’s turn and we’ll go sing.
What does Mr. Ye think?” He asked, shaking his hand.
“Well, we do need to celebrate.” Kerry did not refuse.
It’s almost ten o’clock after dinner. Venus went to the restroom to fix her makeup before entering the
KTV room, and when she came back, there were already people starting to sing. The lights were dim,
and after a glance, the sofa was full of people sitting on it, only the corner was empty.
Venus went towards the corner, but before sitting down, she fell down because of not noticing the beer
on the floor. When she was about to fall down, someone picked her up and Venus just fell into his
arms.
The room was large and the light was dim here and the others were either singing or drinking and
chatting, so no one noticed the accident that happened here.
Venus lay on his chest and heard his powerful heartbeat, which was familiar to her.
“I’m sorry.” Venus stood up in a panic, but she stretched her hand on his chest, “Thank you, Mr. Ye.”
Kerry said to her in a hoarse voice, “Be careful.”
Venus then sat down on the edge of the couch, which was the farthest away from him.
She knew Kerry hated frivolous women, and he also said he was married, so even if she wanted to
seduce him, she couldn’t show it too obviously, otherwise it would cause him to resent it.
Kerry grabbed a can of beer from the table, but he couldn’t stop looking at her.
The moment she just fell on his body, the soft feeling, really was like Venus, making him desperately
want to embrace her.
Venus was sitting alone. Since she was the superior, no one dare to accost her, so she thought about it
and also took a can of beer.
One bottle shouldn’t get her drunk. She could drink two.
“Why not Miss Chu sing?” Kerry suddenly spoke up, breaking the awkward atmosphere between them.
Venus took a sip of her beer and mocked herself, “No, I can’t sing.”
“Come on, Miss Chu. Just sing a song.” Kerry then got up, but Venus stopped him by grabbing his
wrist, “Don’t. I’m telling the truth, don’t embarrass me.”
Kerry’s arm was numb, as if he had been electrocuted, and sat down slowly.
Venus let go of his wrist, which was hot.
The atmosphere between them became a little weird again, so Kerry began a topic, “Now that since the
contract has been signed, is Miss Chu going back to Hong Kong?”
“No, my father said that I can only go back when this project is successfully completed.” Venus said
with sadness.
“Why do you look so sad?” Kerry poked fun at her.
“Yeah.” Venus pursed her lips and said helplessly, “I don’t have any friends here either. What I do every
day is to go to the office, so boring. And no one can go shopping with me. At least there are some girls
accompanying me.”
Without looking at her face, Kerry just listened to her complaints, feeling that he was listening to his
wife’s ramblings. He didn’t want to interrupt, even wishing she would say more.
“And it’s not convenient to stay in a hotel. I should have come…”
“How’s your new apartment?” Kerry asked.
“I don’t know. Not yet.” Venus took another sip of wine and leaned back on the sofa to look at his
perfect face. Seeing that he didn’t say anything, she muttered inside, for in the past, he just let Xinyou
stay there, but now, he didn’t invite Venus to Ye’ s villa.
Suddenly thinking of something, Venus asked somewhat excitedly, “Mr. Ye, is there any good place in
Sky City ? I should be free these days, so I want to see around.”
Kerry frowned. Although he had lived here for many years, he didn’t pay any attention to this, “I only
know that there’s a museum and a river called Yellowflower.”
“Mr. Ye, are you born here?”
Kerry knew the meaning of her words and smiled, “Of course, but I really don’t know too much of this.
How about this? I’ll let my secretary tell you, he should be better than me.”
