Lu Feng sighed."Keep an eye on her then. I think you should take her back to France. Her class will start soon, right? I also called Yan Su last night to come back as soon as possible."
Mu Liang replied, "I was also thinking the same thing. She can't stay here. However, she is the head of the household. She had to stay here at least half of the year. She is also a business partner of Mu Corporation in Italy. Most of the time, she needs to attend the meeting."
Lu Feng frowned."Then what about her study?"
"I will talk to her later on about it." Mu Liang said.
"You better. I don't want to come in Italy anymore. Grandfather always pester me to get married. He wants to see his great grandchildren soon. I bet he is thinking of making them his apprentices." Lu Feng shivered. He recalled the time he spent with his grandfather.
Mu Liang had a subtle smile on his lips."Then give him some great grandchildren and he will stop pestering you to marry."
Lu Feng shook his head dejectedly."You think that I don't want to? I do, but Yan Su's study comes first. I can't let her bare children for me now."
Mu Liang asked his friend, "Do you think you will find her in France after her finishes her study? Her first choice is Africa. After studying, she will go there to write a book and articles about wild life."
Lu Feng halted on his track. Though his friend never lied, he still looked at Mu Liang in disbelief."And how do you know that when I don't? When did she tell you that?"
"She didn't tell me anything. I told you from my instinct." Mu Liang had been observing that Yan Su was taking photos of animals and insects. Before that she would take photos of architectural designs when she wrote an article about it.
Mu Liang's instinct was never wrong. Lu Feng fell silent. They didn't talk until they reached aircraft landing space.
Lu Feng turned towards his friend and said, "I'm going back now. I'm not going to come back here this year, so you should watch your future wife."
"I will, this time." Mu Liang promised.

The next day, Mu Lan was all fired up. She was doing the paper works as usual in her study room. She finished her work with a tremendous speed. After a while, she asked Noel without looking at him."Is there anything else?"
Noel was a little perplexed seeing her working in a lightning speed. He thought that maybe she was some personal works to be done. He replied, "Everything has been done except for today's menu for lunch and dinner."
Mu Lan said, "Just tell the cook to prepare a feast for everyone, including the servants."
Noel didn't know what made her so happy today. He was also in a good mood seeing his mistress all happy. He curiously asked, "Madam Mu, pardon me for asking, did something good happen?"
Mu Lan smiled smugly."Nope. Something good is going to happen."
She had a plenty of reason to be happy. First of all, she recovered and could walk again, and secondly, which was more important, Mark Anthony said that he would tell her who he was. Since he knew a lot about her, she had a feeling that he was somehow related to her in the past. It would be amazing to find out something new since Mu Liang might not know the things which Mark knew.
"... I see..." Though he was confused, Noel didn't ask anymore.
"Tell Mark to come here. I have to give him some important task." Mu Lan said.
"Yes, Madam Mu." Noel bowed and left.
Mu Lan leaned back on the chair and sighed. She murmured while closing her eyes, "Madam Mu.... It sounds of old, and here I'm not married yet."
Mark Anthony came ten minutes later. He knocked on the door and entered."Missy, did you call for me?"
"I did. When do you plan on telling me who you are?" Mu Lan was eager though she knew that Mark would choose night to tell her his story since he talked about full moon.
Just as she predicted, he said, "At midnight meet me in the lakeside. You cannot bring anyone else with you."
Mu Lan immediately nodded."That's what I am planning. But I'm not sure that first young master won't wake up when I get out of the bed." She didn't want to tell him that Mu Liang had a habit of hugging her while sleeping.
"Give him a sleeping pill. It won't hurt him." Mark suggested.
However, looking at Mu Lan's expression, he realized that she didn't like it.
So, he gave her another solution."Make him drank tonight."
"Easy for you to say." Mu Lan knew that Mu Liang had a high tolerance for alcohol. However, this one was better choice than the previous one.
At that moment, someone knocked the door.
Mu Lan looked a t Mark and said, "You can leave now. I will definitely come." Then she said loudly, "Come in."
As the door opened, Mark left and Noel entered."Sorry to interrupt you Madam Mu."
Mu Lan said, "I'm done with him. Is there something urgent?"
Noel answered, "The plane which second young master had taken twelve days ago has just landed."
Mu Lan blinked."Are you saying that they came back/"
"I am." Noel politely replied.
Mu Lan's eyes shone."That's a great news."
"Madam Mu, you knew that they were coming back and that's why you wanted to prepare a feast." Noel said with smile.
"... You can say that." Mu Lan gave him a smile as well. Of course, she didn't know that they were coming. However, she didn't need to raise suspicion.
Noel said, "I will go and welcome everyone."
"Sure, go ahead. I'm also waiting for them." Mu Lan said with a smile. She already made up a plan when she heard that her soon to be partner in crime had arrived.
