Mu Jiu Chen watched his phone vibrate relentlessly. "I'll take it now," he said, not wanting to be looked down upon by the little girl.
Mu Jiu Chen answered the phone. On the other end, Li Yan Heng said, "Brother, something bad has happened. I've caused trouble."
Mu Jiu Chen said nothing. When his brother caused trouble, he always looked for his elder brother. Annoying!
He wanted to have some private time with his partner, but someone always disturbed him.
Before he could speak, he heard Li Yan Heng's urgent cry, "Brother, I was in the fire escape of the restaurant calling Dad. Then Mu Si Chen overheard our conversation. He said he's going back to take back everything."
Mu Jiu Chen's pupils suddenly turned cold. "What did you say? Say it again?" His icy voice almost made Li Yan Heng lose his voice.
"Speak!"
Li Yan Heng recovered and explained the situation very seriously. Mu Jiu Chen became incredibly cold.
"Don't do anything. I'll be back tonight," Mu Jiu Chen said, hanging up the phone.
Jiang Nuan looked at the furious man and frowned, asking, "What's wrong?"
Mu Jiu Chen didn't speak. He looked out the window, his eyes narrowed, his face like frozen slag.
Jiang Nuan sighed, "Getting angry is bad for your liver."
Mu Jiu Chen then looked at her. "Mu Si Chen found out about my affairs."
Mu Jiu Chen recounted what Li Yan Heng had told him to Jiang Nuan.
After listening, Jiang Nuan also felt a hint of worry for Elder Master Mu.
"It seems we can't avoid this any longer," Jiang Nuan said, looking at him and holding his hand. "Mu Jiu Chen, no matter what happens, I will be by your side." That was all she could do.
Seeing the concern filling her clear eyes.
Mu Jiu Chen's heart warmed, and his anger instantly subsided. He excitedly pulled her hand, gazing at her affectionately. "Nuan Nuan, are you willing to go back with me?"
Mu Jiu Chen looked at her nervously.
Jiang Nuan smiled, reached out, and gently caressed his anxious handsome face. "Of course, I am. I wanted to stay before for my studies. With my current health, I can't continue studying. Staying here would involve many dangerous factors, many dangers that are hard to guard against."
"But more importantly, I want to be with you. I have a year of leave. After a year, I will return to my job. Then, we might only see each other once every two or three months, as I'll be traveling all over the country."
Mu Jiu Chen was unhappy to hear this.
But he knew that loving someone meant respecting their choices and their life. Nuan Nuan didn't care about money; her mission, everything she did, and all her efforts, helped many families become whole.
"Okay! I'll call Mom now and have her make preparations for us to go back. Mu Si Chen is sinister and malicious. He will announce this matter back at the Mu family and take back everything that belongs to him."
However, he no longer owed the Mu family anything?
He only owed his grandfather's upbringing.
"Okay!" Jiang Nuan stood up. "These medical books are very interesting. I'll take them back to read."
"Mm!" Mu Jiu Chen nodded slightly.
Jiang Nuan went to pack her things, and Mu Jiu Chen called his mother.
He Jun Shu was greatly shocked to receive the call.
After hanging up, she looked at Li Zhen Ting and said tremulously, "Zhen Ting, Mu family members overheard your conversation with Ah Heng. Little Jiu wants us to pack and head to the airport now. He'll pick us up immediately."
Li Zhen Ting's eyes were filled with immense rage. "That brat! I just told him to find a secluded place to talk, and only a few minutes later, something happened, and it was overheard by the Mu family."
He Jun Shu gave a wry smile, "This is fate, I suppose. At this moment, I actually feel a lot more relaxed."
Li Zhen Ting walked over, embraced his wife, and kissed her forehead. "Jun Shu, don't worry, I'm here for everything."
"Mm!" He Jun Shu smiled gently, looking at him. He had given her all his love over the years.
"Zhen Ting, apart from failing my mother and Little Jiu, I have no regrets about what I did back then."
"I know. It's just that you've suffered all these years. If this matter can be resolved perfectly, you won't have to live with guilt anymore. We have grandchildren. We should be able to see them when we return this time." Li Zhen Ting really wanted to see his three grandsons.
"Alright! I'll go pack." He Jun Shu walked upstairs. At this moment, she truly no longer feared anything. This was her destiny; avoiding it wouldn't solve anything.
Meanwhile, after Mu Jiu Chen and Jiang Nuan had packed, he took Jiang Nuan out. After getting into the car, he called He Ming Run.
"Little Jiu, what are you up to now? I'm on a date. Please stay away from me." He Ming Run's anger surged through the screen.
Mu Jiu Chen frowned slightly. These two were driving in broad daylight. Just how desperate was He Ming Run?
Mu Jiu Chen said, "Something has happened. Mu Si Chen knows that my mother is still alive and that I am not Mu Yun Xiao's biological son. You need to go to my house immediately. I'm afraid something might happen to Grandpa."
"Ah... What did you say?" He Ming Run was also stunned. The information in these few sentences was too overwhelming. It wasn't just the Mu family; he felt like he had been hit by a bomb.
Mu Jiu Chen said angrily, "What are you still dawdling for? Hurry to the Mu family!"
He Ming Run exclaimed in surprise, "You didn't go abroad these past few days to find Nuan Nuan, but to find my aunt?"
Mu Jiu Chen: "I found them both. I'll say it again: you need to go to the Mu family immediately. No matter what Mu Si Chen says, you must protect my grandfather. I should arrive in Jin City around 4 AM."
After speaking, Mu Jiu Chen hung up the phone and drove to pick up his parents.
He Ming Run rarely had the interest to do anything with Meng Yuan during the day. After all, Meng Yuan had returned to accompany Yun Xia, and they only saw each other every few days. It was inevitable that He Ming Run would hold and kiss her upon meeting.
He Ming Run hurriedly pulled up Meng Yuan's clothes, then looked at her and said, "Yuan Yuan, the sky is falling."
Meng Yuan: "..."
She blushed and said, "The sky isn't falling, but you are getting weak."
He Ming Run: "..."
This little girl was getting bolder and bolder, even daring to make such jokes.
He Ming Run had no time for jokes. He changed his clothes, kissed Meng Yuan for a while, told her to wait at home, then rushed out the door with his bodyguards, heading straight for the Mu family.
Meanwhile, at the Mu family, Mu Si Chen had already summoned all the Mu family members, and even Mu Yun Xiao was called back.
Not only that, but Mu Si Chen had also sent someone to notify He Ming Run. He Ming Run received the call on his way.
He entered the Mu family's hall with two bodyguards. It was so crowded that he could only see a sea of heads. Faced with such a scene, like a tribunal, how could he hold out until 4 AM?
He Ming Run hesitated at the entrance for a moment, then another moment. He stopped, refusing to go further in.
If he had known, he should have stalled for time. Even if he didn't come, Mu Si Chen might not have said anything.
"Oh! Young Master Mu, you've arrived. Please come in!" Mu Si Chen's voice was arrogant as he smiled at He Ming Run.
