Chapter 83 Liar, Liar Pants On Fire
"Marta, remember the sixty-eight thousand dollars in cash which you thought were stolen, but later you found them after three days in your locker? Marry had stolen them. I found her gambling away the money. At my warning, she returned whatever money she had left with herself. She also sold her pieces of jewellery to complete the sum."
"You bitch." Marry yelled, being discovered.
Marta looked at her daughter with anger and disbelief. "Mom, don't believe her. She is…."
"Come with me." With full force, Marta took her out of the room of Mu Yuehan. Marry followed after her. She was gritting her teeth in anger.
Marry did not want to leave the side of Mu Yuehan. But she knew about the wrath of Marta if she did not follow her. She knew a long lecture was coming.
"That was something which I expected from my girl." Mu Yuehan opened his eyes and teased her in a soft voice.
"You are up." Nian Tian breathed in relief and hugged him tightly. They both hugged each other tight, letting go of the fear that they were feeling.
"Let me call the doctor." She was about to break the hug but Mu Yuehan kept hugging her tight. "Let me hug you some more. Let me calm my heart that we are safe."
Nian Tian smiled in his hug and hugged him harder. She inhaled his familiar smell.
"I was so scared that something worse happened to you. I thought you were leaving me. I thought…." Her voice broke down.
Mu Yuehan smiled painfully, feeling her pain and fear. He decided to tease her, to lift her mood, "Did I not tell you that I am a parasite? So how did you even think that I will leave you? Don't you trust me? I am sad."
Nian Tian lifted her face from his chest. She looked at his mock pout. She slapped his chest. "I was scared and here you are, cracking jokes."
Mu Yuehan chuckled. He twitched his brows mischievously. "Do you know, I have a long line of life on my hand. I will not die easily. I have done many good deeds in my past and current life. God will not call for my presence in heaven until I have enjoyed my life with you to the full."
He wrapped his arms tightly around her waist and again pulled her on his chest. He exhaled sharply.
"I will not leave you. We have a long life ahead of us. A life, full of love-making, a wonderful and marvellous wedding, lots of kids, lots of grandkids and a lot of beautiful memories."
Nian Tian smiled when she heard him. She tightened her arms around him and imagined her future with him, in his arms.

Nurse and doctors were called after some time. They checked the vitals of Mu Yuehan, tied a temporary band on the right hand of Mu Yuehan and left the room.
"Let me kiss you." Mu Yuehan pulled her toward himself. He was about to kiss her when a bodyguard entered his room.
His eyes widened when he saw the scene in front of them. Mu Yuehan's lips were very close to that of Nian Tian.
"I am sorry." He was about to leave abruptly, after seeing the dark expressions on the face of Mu Yuehan when Mu Yuehan stopped him.
"Speak."
The guard turned. Without looking at the love birds, he reported, "We have caught the man who fired the shot."
The guard then looked down. "I am sorry. I failed to sense the danger."
"It was not your mistake."
It was not the mistake of the guard. Mu Yuehan was at fault. He knew, that visiting an amusement park was dangerous. It was crowdie. Anyone in the crowd could be after his life. It was not easy to protect him in such a place.
But still, he decided to take Nian Tian there.
"Who wants to kill you?" she asked with concern, once the guard was gone.
"Don't worry about that person. I will catch him. Now my kiss." He was about to kiss her again when Zhan Wei barged into the room.
"Not again." Mu Yuehan groaned. He threw his head back.
Nian Tian chuckled and parted herself from him.
"Thank god, you are fine." Zhan Wei hugged him tightly. Fear was evident in his voice. He released a deep fearful breath. "You don't have any idea of how scared I was. I'd be dead if something had happened to you."
"You are a big man. How can you cry?" Mu Yuehan teased Zhan Wei and patted on his back. "Leave me, otherwise, I will send a photo of your crying face to Jingyan."
"I was not crying okay." Zhan Wei broke the hug. "I am concerned about you."
"Who is Jingyan? Is she your girlfriend or crush?" Nian Tian teased Zhan Wei and for some time, there was a lively environment in the room.
"She is not my girlfriend or crush." Zhan Wei said bashfully. He left Mu Yuehan. He took his seat on the spare stool.
"Liar, liar, pants on fire." Mu Yuehan teased. He wickedly winked at Zhan Wei. He looked at Nian Tian.
"Jingyan, my cousin is his childhood crush. He is deep in love with her."
"Wow, isn't your love story like a story from some novel? Childhood love." Nian Tian commented. She felt curious. "Mu Yuehan, tell me something more about Jingyan."
"There is nothing. He is lying. I don't have any feeling for her." Zhan Wei lied. He blushed. Mu Yuehan scoffed.
"If you don't have any feelings for her then why are your ears red?" She teased. "Come on, tell me about her. You called me your sister. Will you not tell your sister about the love of your life?"
Zhan Wei sighed and told Nian Tian about his crush. To tell the truth, he felt happy on confining about his feelings to someone. He told everything about his feelings, his emotions, and how he felt about Jingyan to Nian Tian.
