Chapter 623 Uncontrollable Desire to Kill

"Uh… Do you really want to smoke?" Chuan looked at him but didn't reach to take a cigarette.

Muchen's gaze darkened, so Chuan could only light a cigarette for him.

Muchen hadn't smoked in a long time. He took two puffs and didn't feel much, so he threw it away.

Chuan looked at Muchen's extinguished cigarette butt and asked what he had set out to inquire. "Why did Xiyi leave?"

"Why? Are you sad because Ke is sad to part with him?" Muchen tilted his head and looked at Chuan, confused.

Chuan was dumbstruck.

"Don't joke, boss." Chuan was slightly frustrated. Boss really has a strange personality.

"Since you're not, how does it affect you regardless if he leaves?"

"But…" Even if not for Ke, your physical condition is dependent on Xiyi.

Muchen's expression changed slightly. "You know about it?"

"Huh?" Chuan had a startled expression. He hadn't said anything. Why did he ask me such a question?

"I understand my body and mental state best. I don't need anyone else's foolish concern." Muchen's

face grew cold, and even his voice was icy.

Chuan could feel that Muchen's temper today was better than the last time he saw Muchen.

Of course, this was relative.

He thought that Muchen's improvement was because of Xiyi's treatment.

Therefore, he didn't ask further and answered, "Alright."

Muchen glanced at him before turning to return to his office.

Chuan stood on the spot and was slightly lost in thought.

He still felt Xiyi's sudden departure was somewhat strange.

Xiyi had been doing well in Country J and even had a laboratory. He didn't like socializing with others or going out. Why did he suddenly want to join Doctors Without Borders?

Muchen, who was almost at the door of his office, suddenly turned around and walked back.

"Boss?"

"I remember you previously said that you found Shichu?" Ziyue worked at the company during this period and was always by his side. His attention had been diverted, so he hadn't asked Chuan about it.

When Chuan heard Muchen mention Shichu, his expression changed. "He wasn't there the second day I brought people over."

"Have you found him?" Muchen's voice was calm, and no emotion could be detected.

Chuan's palm started sweating. He gulped before saying, "No…"

Then he explained hurriedly. "But there's news."

He thought Muchen would fly into a rage, but Muchen didn't.

Muchen muttered to himself for a moment before he said, "You don't have to kill him or let him know that you've found him. Find people to monitor him at all times. Remember, don't kill him. Also, keep this a secret. Don't let Ziyue know."

"Alright."

Chuan was slightly surprised. Chuan remembered Muchen had previously said that the next time he saw Shichu, Shichu had to be dead.

Chuan never thought Muchen would change his mind so soon.

"Go on."

Muchen would never answer Chuan's doubts. He waved, signaling for Chuan to leave.

Muchen paced and strolled to his office with a worried expression.

He still remembered his rage and uncontrollable desire to kill.

When he had given Chuan the instructions back then, he had really wanted Shichu to die. He even wanted to kill Shichu personally.

But he was clear-headed and knew that killing Shichu wouldn't solve the problem.

If he really killed Shichu, Ziyue would remember it for the rest of her life.

After the K1LU73 virus incident, Ziyue may not be close to Shichu. However, she wouldn't want him to die, nor would she want to see Muchen kill him.

It was too easy to predict Ziyue's personality and habits.

But when his illness flared up, he would lose his mind, be suspicious, and have a strong desire to kill and destroy…

All these could harm Ziyue.

Genetic mental illness had always been the Mogwin family's most hidden secret.

Qin Li had gone to Country Z for a long time and not returned because she had accidentally eavesdropped and heard the secret. She had promised to keep it hidden, but Yuchuan, the person controlling the Mogwin family, didn't believe her.

Those in high positions of power were conceited and only trusted themselves.

Furthermore, to Yuchuan, the family's rise and fall were more important than the family's children.

Hence, when Li discovered that the doctor treating Yuchuan's wife had died in a car accident, she went to Country Z under the false pretense of chasing after Shuzhe. She was there for over a year and didn't return before she died.

However, she accidentally told Muchen the secret she had kept for half her life when she was drunk once.

Muchen was young then and didn't fully understand genetic mental illnesses. After that, he lived peacefully for many years. Even with a medical genius like Xiyi with him, he didn't pay too much attention. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

His success was unrivaled, and he was conceited and arrogant. He had almost forgotten about it in all these years.

He never thought fate would deal him a deadly blow.

Even if his success couldn't be replicated, even if his status rose, and even if he was ready to live a peaceful life after the dust settled. Fate wasn't kind to him.

…

It was probably because Ziyue had thought of Shichu when she spoke to Muchen, so she felt out of it all day.

Fortunately, the work for the day was relatively easy, so Ziyue didn't make any mistakes.

She had received the note back when she was away with Muchen. The handwriting, signature, and letters 'LU' proved that Shichu had written the message for her.

She had put it off because of what happened to Muchen after that.

Muchen's condition was gradually improving, so she decided to meet Shichu.

However, Muchen watched after her tightly, and they were inseparable. If she wanted to go out, Muchen would ask her about it, or he would go out with her.

But Ziyue never thought her opportunity would come so soon.

…

Ke returned within two days.

The first thing she did was contact Ziyue.

It happened to be a Saturday.

Ziyue was reporting to Muchen about the partnership project with Bessalyn in the study room when Ke called her.

Muchen was looking at the proposal while Ziyue waited for his opinions and conclusion at the side when her cell phone rang.

Ziyue picked up her cell phone and saw Muchen raise his head to look at her. She rose and blinked before saying, "I'm going to take this."

"Who is it?" Muchen's expression didn't change, but she felt he was displeased.
