Zong Zhengyuās question pierced Mu Ananās heart.
It made her feel like she had nowhere to hide.
The depression and unhappiness from the day before changed to todayās awkwardness and disguise.
His words had hit the nail on the head.
For a moment, Mu Anan did not know what to say.
She wanted to retort, butā¦
She was very powerless.
Mu Anan lowered her eyes in disappointment.
However, Zong Zhengyu laughed and carried her onto his lap. He restrained her waist with both hands and said, āThe reason why I didnāt let you see the o master is not because of your status.ā
Was heā¦ explaining things to her?
āThe old master brought some people with him this time, including Mu Caijie.ā
āMu Caijie?ā Mu Anan blurted out.
āThe person pretending to be Mu Caijie,ā replied Zong Zhengyu.
Mu Anan paused for a moment. āThe person who has been helping Jiang Group
in your name all these years to avoid smart drugs?ā
āTo be exact, his goal has never been the smart drug,ā Zong Zhengyu said as he caressed the wound on Mu Ananās back.
The wound was still healing.
Because of the infection and festering, the recovery was relatively slow.
However, no matter how slow the recovery was, it was still in the recovery stage.
Nevertheless, Zong Zhengyu still remembered the appearance of Mu Ananās wounds in the boxing ring.
It would be unforgettable and heart-aching for the rest of his life.
Zong Zhengyu caressed her gently again and again. āI didnāt want you to see her because the other partyās target is me. It was never the smart drug or the Mu family.ā
āThe Mu family is just a chess piece, right?ā Mu Ananās voice suddenly calmed down as she looked at Zong Zhengyu quietly.
That was already a nice way to put it.
If one were to explain this matter in a more straightforward way, it could be summarized as one sentence. The fake Mu Caijie had always been targetmg the Zong Zhengyu, and the Mu family and the Huo family were just sacrifices to get close to him.
-But thereās something I donāt understand,ā Mu Anan said. āWhen Mom and
Grandpa died, you and I didnāt know each other. Why would she target the Mu family?ā
As soon as Mu Anan said that, Zong Zhengyuās usually deep and calm gaze clearly had some different emotions. He even shifted his gaze elsewhere.
After a few seconds, his gaze returned to Mu Anan.
Mu Anan asked again, āItās the Jiang family and the Huo family again. Why is he targeting you in such a roundabout way? He doesnāt seem like he really wants to do anything to you. Itās more like he wants toā¦ torture you?ā Mu Anan was a meticulous person. With Zong Zhengyuās explanation, she immediately thought of many things.
For example, back at Qiyun Mountain, the fake Mu Caijie had countless chances to kill her.
To be more precise, as long as the fake Mu Caijie said a word, the Jiang family would kill her in minutes.
He could even use even dirtier methods to mess with Mu Anan.
But in the end, he didnāt. Instead, he placed her in the underground boxing ring.
Even if Mu Anan didnāt fight, dying in the ring was a relatively clean way to die. Mu Anan had already felt that something was wrong. Now that Zong Zhengyu had explained what he did, Mu Anan felt that this was a deliberate scheme. The purpose of the scheme was not to kill Mu Anan, nor was it to kill Zong Zhengyu.
The real reason wasā¦ torturing this man!
Or should she say, test this man?
Mu Anan did not have a complete answer to her last guess.
She looked at Zong Zhengyu. āSeventh Master, do you have any grudges with this person?ā
Zong Zhengyu blinked his eyes casually and said softly, āSome old matter.ā
After giving that answer, Zong Zhengyu didnāt say anything else. He just looked elsewhere.
Mu Ananās heart suddenly sank.
The atmosphere in the car also started to turn subtle.
Old matter?
It was a simple sentence, but Mu Anan knew very well that there was a heavy backstory.
It was an old matter, an old matter from ten years ago that made Gu Shuqing leave Liuli City and never step foot into the Zong residence, made Zong Zhengyu have post-traumatic stress disorder, and made the fake Mu Caipe set up a trap and go around in circles just to torture Zong Zhengyu.
At this moment, Mu Anan really wanted to ask what kind of old matter it was.
But in the end, she chose to keep the question in her heart.
Mu Anan pretended to be relaxed and smiled. She changed the topic slightly. āHa, so, Seventh Master, you didnāt let me see the old master because you wanted to protect me?ā
As Mu Anan spoke, she left Zong Zhengyuās lap and sat down. āYou think Iām too weak. Youāre not afraid of me meeting the old master, but youāre afraid of me meeting the person behind the scenes? Are you afraid that he will target me or that he will hurt me? Seventh Master, you underestimate me. How could e hurt?ā
As she spoke, Mu Anan raised her fist and waved it.
If she didnāt seem imposing enough, she would roll up her sleeves and show Zong Zhengyu that she also had muscles.
If it wasnāt for the fact that it would look too unrefined, she would have exposed her torso muscles.
After all, she had always been an athletic girl, so strength was not a problem. Looking at Mu Anan, who was showing off, Zong Zhengyu laughed.
He placed his hand on Mu Ananās head, inserted his fingers into the wig, and rubbed it. āKid.ā
āChildren can protect themselves, too.ā Mu Anan was not convinced. āYou said it before. You hoped that no matter where I was or what kind of danger I was in, I would be able to protect myself until you came looking for me. I did it. Iām not weak at all.ā
āYes, yes, my kid is the best.ā
āThatās why Iām not weak at all. I can bear anything,ā said Mu Anan.
Even if it was a devastating truth, she could bear it.
It was just that sometimes, she didnāt want to find out so early.
-So, you want to see the old master?ā Zong Zhengyu asked.
Mu Anan had a confident smile on her face, but she didnāt know how to answer his sudden question.
Did she want to see him?
Actually, she didnāt really want to see the old master, who had an imposing aura.
It wasnāt that Mu Anan was cowering in fear.
She just felt that her identity was not suitable, and her position was not good either. Mu Anan was like a small fry.
Previously, she had been brooding over it because Zong Zhengyu had taken the initiative not to let her see the old master.
Now that he had explained it clearly, Mu Anan felt a little melancholic.
āI donāt know. I feel a little depressed when I think about meeting your dad.ā Mu Anan sighed half-jokingly.
āThen donāt see them.ā
āAh?ā
Zong Zhengyu chuckled and pinched Mu Ananās cheek. āBut at the end of the day, you still need to meet him at least once. You should let him know of your existence. Donāt worry, Iāll protect you.
Zong Zhengyu said the last sentence very softly, and he whispered it in Mu Ananās ear.
But to Mu Anan, that was not just a simple sentence.
It touched her heart.
At that moment, Mu Anan wanted to give her life to this man.
She looked away. āThenā¦ Iāll meet him..ā
