"Liang Liang, look, brother Feng is finishing my favorite food. Snatch it for me."
Mu Liang snatch the bowl from Mu Feng's hand and gave it to Mu Lan.
Mu Feng cried out in sorrow.
Mu Lan gleefully said, "Liang Liang is the best!"
Mu Liang, "…." He didn't utter a sound. He didn't glare at anyone.
Mu Feng found it really strange. 'Is big brother actually mad at me or sister Lan Lan?'
He kept his eyes and ears open. He noticed that his sister Lan Lan was peculiarly close to his big brother. She was cuddling to him when he was working while sitting on the sofa. She would hug him, sleep on his lap and serve him milk and cookies.
Mu Feng blinked. 'What on earth is happening? Why is big brother mad at sister Lan Lan?' He recalled last night but couldn't find anything that would make Mu Liang angry at Mu Lan. 'What could it be…?'
The next day, Mu Lan woke up late and a found a sticky note on her face.
She could see that it was Mu Liang's handwriting.
It was written: 'Wake up and have breakfast.'
Mu Lan'sn jaw dropped. She remembered that she did tell him to wake her up if she was late. But just because he didn't want to talk to her, that didn't mean that she agreed to this process of waking up.
A letter? Seriously?
Who would wake up with a silent letter?
What she didn't know that Mu Liang poked her face twice before attaching the letter on her face.
With a dark mood, Mu Lan got out of the bed and freshened herself. She went to the dining room and saw the Mu brothers almost finished their breakfast.
Mu Lan was speechless.
Mu Feng saw her entering the room. "Good morning sister Lan Lan. Come over and have breakfast."
Mu Lan smiled sweetly at him and said, "Actually, I just came to greet you. I'm going out for a bit. Enjoy your meal." She turned around and left.
'Mu Liang, don't get to cocky. I will show you that you are nothing.' She fumed.
"B-but it's not safe…" Mu Feng didn't finish speaking, before Mu Lan left the room. 'Is she mad? First big brother and now sister Lan Lan. There is Third World War going on.'
Mu Lan went out with her bodyguards and booked two hotel rooms. One for the bodyguards and the other one was for herself. She told them to take rest and behind their backs, she ordered breakfast for her.
While she was worshiping her stomach and having delicious meal, the bodyguards were confirming to Mu Liang that Madam Mu didn't eat anything.
Mu Lan used her own credit card and so Mu Liang didn't find out anything.
Mu Liang's face was solemn. He showed that he didn't care, but he did care, a lot.
While Mu Liang was tortured and lost appetite, Mu Lan rubbed her stomach and burped in satisfaction. Afterwards, she opened her laptop and tried to contact her brother, Jonah.
She sent a text: 'Meet me ASAP'
After sending the text, she took the ice cream cup and savored the mixture of ice cream while eating.
"Did you save some ice cream for me? It looks yummy." Johan said from the balcony.
Mu Lan wasn't surprised to see him climbing the forty two number floor. She was used to him showing off his special physical skills.
"I saved you breakfast. Hurry up and eat before it turns cold." Mu Lan said.
Jonah came inside and opened the lids of the dishes one by one. "Feast first thing in the morning! Lanie, are you upset for some reason?"
"Why do you think so?" Mu Lan wiped her mouth.
"You appetite grows when you are angry or upset." Jonah didn't wait and started digging the food.
Mu Lan saw him jumping on the food. She said, "Slow down genius. Don't choke."
Jonah didn't gazed at her. He kept eating and said, "You can just tell me why you called for me."
Mu Lan was relaxed. "Can't I have a chat with my brother for no reason?"
"You are clever and know that I can't show my face unnecessarily." He chewed shrimps.
Mu Lan said, "I want you to investigate something."
"What?" his mouth was full of food. It sound different.
Mu Lan continued, "For some reason, I'm feeling that someone or some people are following me."
Jonah stopped chewing. He glanced at his sister and asked, "And why do you think that?"
She shrugged. "You can say woman's instinct."
He seemed to understand. "I never underestimated woman's sixth sense. So how long do you think that you are being followed?"
"More than a week. At first I didn't heed to it since I was with my bodyguards. I thought that it was them. But after being kidnapped, I realized that it wasn't the case." She gloomily said.
Jonah was startled. "You were kidnapped!"
"I thought you knew." She glanced at her brother.
Jonah shook his head. "I didn't. I'm here for a mission. I don't have time to keep an eye on you all the time."
Finding it believable, she nodded. "I see." She thought that it was her own brother, but it didn't seemed to be the case.
"So what happened then?" He asked curiously.
Mu Lan told him the whole story. "When I was kidnapped, I felt someone's eyes on him. Even when I was rescued, went to the hospital, and came out, I felt the gaze. When I looked at that direction, it didn't see anyone. It was weird."
"You mean creepy." Jonah corrected her.
Mu Lan denied it. "I didn't feel creepy…. I felt strange."
Jonah stopped chewing food. "Lanie, you are the one who sounds strange."
"I'm telling you the truth. Now find out for me what is actually going on." Mu Lan said.
Jonah looked at her eyes directly. "Lanie, do you know something about gold key?"
