Chapter 222: A Formal Declaration of War

Meng Nianchu's move was truly sudden. Even Tracy, who had been taking care of her by her side, was caught off guard and couldn't stop her in time.

Suddenly, she stood up and slapped herself twice, helping Mu Junze defuse the critical situation.

"Well, Mr. Jin? Is this okay now? The two slaps on your lover's face have been returned."

When Meng Nianchu said the word "lover", she deliberately emphasized it.

Jin Hui's face gradually turned expressionless, and his mood was clearly unhappy.

He didn't like to hear the word "lover", and he disliked even more when someone got in his way. Unexpectedly, today, Meng Nianchu had done two things he hated.

At this moment, Linda was lying in Jin Hui's arms. Seeing Meng Nianchu like this, she felt somewhat relieved.

Linda thought to herself, "Humph, let's see if you dare to be so bold again. I've always said that everything that has happened to me will be returned in full."

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Mu, you actually have to rely on a woman to step in for you. You're really a young and talented hunk," Jin Hui mocked with a strange look on his face.

Hearing this, Mu Junze was thoroughly annoyed. He stared at Jin Hui fiercely and said, "Today's matter is resolved. Do you have anything else, Mr. Jin? If not, please take your... your lover and leave."

Jin Hui smiled. Looking at everyone in the room, he thought that he had come out in a hurry today without any backup and without proper planning. In fact, the situation was unfavorable to him.

So he smiled and said, "Okay, hehe, Mr. Mu, we'll surely meet again. See you around."

"Don't bother to see you off!" Mu Junze replied.

Under the angry gazes of the group, Jin Hui and Linda turned to leave. At this moment, Mu Junze's voice rang out again, cold as ice. "Mr. Jin, you said just now that you'd find a chance to return this stab to me. Do you still remember?"

Jin Hui wasn't a coward. Without even turning his head, he said to Mu Junze, "Of course I remember. One thing is one thing. There'll surely be a chance in the future..." Jin Hui paused for a moment and continued, "Our matter is far from over."

"Okay."

After saying that, Jin Hui put his arm around Linda and walked out of the ward.

In the car downstairs, Linda was still crying non - stop. Jin Hui wiped away her tears and then said, "Don't worry. They've completely offended me today. I'll handle the rest for you."

Jin Hui disliked it when others stepped in, especially those who suddenly appeared in the middle of a two - person matter to pay off someone else's debt.

In today's situation, that person was Meng Nianchu.

"Brother Hui, what are you going to do?" Linda asked, feigning innocence.

Jin Hui smiled and pinched Linda's face. "I just like your duplicitous look."

Jin Hui said with a smile, "Of course I'll make them pay. It could be a price in life, or perhaps, a price with their lives."

When Jin Hui said the last few words, his tone gradually grew heavier, and his face darkened. He no longer had a smiling face as before.

Hearing Jin Hui say this, Linda quickly changed from a sad expression to a happy one. She grabbed Jin Hui's hand on her face and said, "Brother Hui is the best to me!"

Jin Hui glanced at Linda sideways and smiled.

Then, he slowly moved his hand down from her face, across her neck, and landed on her soft chest. He gave it a hard squeeze.

Linda was startled by this sudden move. A tingling sensation spread through her body. No woman could resist such a feeling.

Jin Hui then used his other hand to remotely close all the windows of the car. Because of the sun - blocking cloth, no one outside could tell what was going on inside.

Back in the ward, Mu Junze had remained silent since Jin Hui left. Everyone stayed quiet.

After a long time, Tracy was the first to break the silence. "Oh my god, that Jin Hui was really scary just now. I could feel his killing intent coming at me. Oh my god, it was so terrifying."

Tracy kept muttering. At this moment, Mu Junze and Meng Nianchu remained silent.

"Why did you do that just now?" Mu Junze was the first to speak. His tone was a bit unhappy as he questioned Meng Nianchu.

Meng Nianchu wasn't one to back down. "In that situation just now, if I hadn't stepped in, things might have gotten really complicated."

"You didn't have to take it on yourself!" Obviously, he was still bothered by seeing Meng Nianchu slap herself twice. No one had ever dared to show off in front of him and take on problems for him.

However, Meng Nianchu was the first one, which made Mu Junze even more certain that she was the one he was looking for.

All the women Mu Junze had met before had wanted to rely on him, like seeking shade under a big tree for their descendants and families.

No one had ever dared to step in to block trouble and solve difficulties for him. Meng Nianchu was the first.

"It's okay, Junze. Isn't your body still not fully recovered?" Meng Nianchu replied, "We haven't settled the score with them yet. When your body recovers, there'll be plenty of time to deal with them. There's no need to rush."

As she said this, a hint of killing intent gradually showed in Meng Nianchu's tone.

Since that woman tried to harm Mom and Dad, she's no longer my sister. The feud between us is irreconcilable. Two slaps today don't matter. Anyway, I'll return everything in full sooner or later.

Meng Nianchu gritted her teeth angrily, clenched her fists, and stared with wide eyes.

Similarly, Mu Junze was determined that he had officially declared war on Jin Hui today. Their matter probably wouldn't end so simply.

Since Jin Hui had promised to return this stab to him one day, Mu Junze would fulfill his wish and make sure the stab was returned.

However, at this moment, he was still sulking. He didn't want to see Meng Nianchu suffer to resolve the crisis for him.

This sulking lasted for a whole day, and he didn't eat properly.

Early the next morning, just as usual, Meng Nianchu made delicious food and came to the hospital to accompany Mu Junze.

This time, because she was worried about Mu Junze's health, she took the initiative to soften her attitude. "Junze, I was wrong," Meng Nianchu apologized, "Please eat something. For the sake of your health, don't hurt yourself just because you're sulking with me."

Mu Junze was also a bit hungry but had been too proud to say so. Fortunately, Meng Nianchu took the initiative to give him an opportunity to save face. So he said, "Okay, but don't do it again."

"Okay!" Meng Nianchu replied.
