The leader screamed, "Stop the plane before it leaves the ground." He stood up and ran out.
"Okay!" The bodyguard followed him and loudly instructed the other bodyguards.
Someone came towards the leader and said, "Leader, the plane is already off the ground. Shall we chase it?"
"No!" Mu Feng was still on the line. He instructed, "Don't chase after her, or she might crash the plane in nervousness... wait, is she the pilot of the plane?"
His heart was shaking in fear. She didn't know how to fly a plane let alone how to land it. 'If there is any mishap.... ' He didn't have to live anymore.
"Ah, we don't know. We will look into it." The leader said immediately. They were totally unprepared.
"But what about Madam Mu? What will we do?" A bodyguard walking beside the leader asked.
Mu Feng took a deep breath before commanding, "Ready another plane. I'll be there in a minute."
The leader nodded."Yes, boss." Then, he gave instructions to the others.
Soon, Mu Feng reached the mansion. He drove directly towards the runway. Everything was ready and when Mu Feng entered into the plane, the plane took off.
Mu Feng's plane followed Mu Lan's plane from a certain distance. Mu Feng found no problem with the way the plane was flying.
'Whom did she take?' He wandered looking at the outside.
"Boss, it seems that...." The leader came forward and told him.
Mu Feng shook his head and at the same time, he took the radio and tried to contact her.
"Sister Lan Lan, do you hear me?... Sister Lan Lan?.... . Are you there?.... Can we just talk?.... Are you alright?.... I'm worried, can you please answer me?" While he asked, he was very calm and his tone was smooth. He had no interest in making her nervous or anything. He just wanted to check if she was okay. As long as she was okay, that would be alright for now.
For now.

This morning, Mu Lan was feeling uneasy. She had a nightmare and it made her feel terrible. In her dream, she saw that the teardrop pendant that was given by Mu Liang fell on the floor and shattered into pieces. It was an expensive jewel which shouldn't be shattered in reality, but in her dream it did.
Mu Lan's whole body shivered after she woke up. She gazed at the sky as she drinking milk in the balcony. The sky was gloomy as if it was as sad as her.
She sighed heavily and finished her glass if milk. Then, she wore a white off shoulder maxi dress with cherry blossoms print and white chiffon cardigan. She had sunglasses to cover her head and a purse in her left hand. She wore a pair of pink pump shoes. Her personal maid Alice helped her to have some make-up as she tried to make Mu Lan understand that women felt happy when they wore make-up and fine jewelries.
Mu Lan only smiled and let her do whatever she wanted. After that, with an unsettling heart, she went to the company to spend some time with Mu Feng.

'I can help him with work. ' She thought.
She went to the top floor and went to Mu Feng's chamber. His secretaries were nowhere to be found. So, she directly went to open the door of his room to surprise him; however, the fate loved playing with her. She was shocked as she heard Mu Feng's voice, "What?"
She halted as she heard the commotion from inside of the room. As Mu Feng stood up straight suddenly, his chair fell backward with a loud sound.
She heard him speaking, "Tell me in details.... . Was my brother taken by anyone?"
The word 'taken' made her heart shook. 'What happened to Liang Liang?' She wondered.
She silently listened, "Are you telling me that he was in house arrest?" She felt like someone squeezed her heart tightly. She was unable to breathe.
"I don't care what you do but I'm going to send my best people in Saudi Arabia to look for my brother. You have to do everything in order to assist them... Don't forget that it was your responsibility to take care of your guest. But you failed. We let you do as you wished, but you messed it up. Now take the responsibility" She clenched her palms tightly and listened with great attention."You better find him in one piece as well as alive."
As soon as Mu Feng hung up, Mu Lan turned around and left. Her eyes were icy cold.
Her heart was calm and she didn't lose her temper. She went inside the car and told Mark Anthony to drive her home.
Mark looked at her from the rare view mirror."Did something happen?"
Mu Lan lightly asked back, "Why do you ask?"
"You don't look okay. Though you wore make-up but your face is somewhat pale." No one should underestimate the observation skill of a magician.
She gave him a polite smile."I don't know what you are talking about."
Since the day these two had an argument, Mu Lan kept her distance from him. Since they didn't trust her that much and refused to help her, then she might as well no need to bother them at all. As long as they protected her, that's enough.
Mark sighed deeply. He knew that she was avoiding him, but it didn't have to be this intense. He opened his mouth to say that if she needed help, she could ask him, but then knowing her, he gulped down his words and became silent.
The temperature of the inside of the car dropped to a few degrees.
Soon they reached home and she entered the mansion elegantly without being too fast or too slow. She went to the bedroom and closed the door. Then, she took off her jewelries and shoes and wore a pair of white summer boots. After that, she took two sets of clothes and put them in her bunny shoulder bag, she didn't forget to take a black shawl with her.
