Upon hearing Gu Qiwu, Ah Yong’s gaze sank. He thought about it seriously and then realized that, of course, he knew who the so-called ‘he’ was referring to.

“Boss, if that’s how it is, then the person who benefits the most would be him! Unfortunately, Boss, you have to take the blame for him. Boss, do you want to…”

Before Ah Yong could finish, Gu Qiwu had already lifted a hand to stop him from continuing. “Okay, let’s just turn the page for this matter. Him getting promoted is a good thing for us. Qi Lei’s already in shambles, Qi Qiming doesn’t like him, and now upon getting hit with this blow, he might as well be crippled.”

“Boss, you’re right. Qi Lei and Mu Yuchen have always been on good terms. If we let him be promoted, it would do us no good. Even though the way Qi Feng cleared the obstacles was a little despicable, the results are powerful. I really didn’t expect this fellow to be this merciless. I almost thought that there was a mishap. Unexpectedly, this reason cropped up. Boss, you’re thorough with your a.n.a.lysis.”

Ah Yong could not help but look admiringly at Gu Qiwu. He thought about it, then could not help but say, “Qi Lei is quite pitiful. He’d always thought so wishfully that…”

When Gu Qiwu heard him about to comment further, his eyes darkened and he suddenly said coldly as he turned to look away at the hazy night, “Drive.”

Noticing that his boss’s tone was not quite right, Ah Yong quietly shut his mouth and quietly walked over to start the car.

At this moment, Mu Yuchen was sitting cross-legged and meditating. He quietly combed through the many things that happened recently from start to end. He was about to get up when he suddenly felt like someone was staring at him. Then, he quietly opened his eyes and what greeted his sight was his own father, Mu Tangchuan.

Mu Tangchuan stood quietly outside the door, his gentle and handsome face colored with a hint of worry. He looked as if he had aged quite a bit as he silently watched him.

“Father? Why are you here?” Mu Yuchen frowned while a faint warmth could not help but flash past in his eyes. He propped himself up to get up.

Mu Tangchuan quietly stared at him for quite a while before pus.h.i.+ng the door to enter.

“Have a seat.” Mu Yuchen pushed the only chair in the room to Mu Tangchuan while he sat down on the bed.

Mu Tangchuan did not reject it. He sat down quietly, his gaze remaining on Mu Yuchen. After a while, he asked in a deep voice, “Did you do it?”

“No,” Mu Yuchen answered swiftly.

“Was it Xiaye?” Mu Tangchuan asked again.

“No.” Mu Yuchen’s tone was very firm.

When Mu Tangchuan heard that, he nodded and said in a deep voice, “That’s good then. If it’s not you, then I won’t let anyone recklessly frame my son!”

Upon hearing that, Mu Yuchen’s gaze softened. “Father, you don’t have to worry about me getting out. You and Mother should just stabilize your own matters. This incident can have huge implications. You and Mother have been quite pressured too.”

“Enough, we’re already here. Don’t say these things now. These two days, I’ve been getting orders from your grandparents. They say that your mother and I care too little for you. I thought about it, and it’s true that your mother and I haven’t done well enough all these years. When she knew that something happened to you, your mother rushed back. She’s not in a great state either.”

Mu Tangchuan’s tone contained a hint of reprimand as he fixed his eyes on Mu Yuchen. “Xiaye’s already told me about the whole thing. Don’t think that you’ll be just fine like this. w.a.n.g Qin’s already dead, so this is going to be a sticky situation. She’s also someone influential in the field, and the backlash is bad.”

“If I say I’ll be fine, then I will be.”

“Why are you still in here if you’re fine? Are you at your wits’ end?” Mu Tangchuan frowned and squinted at him as he asked.

“I just wanted to prove my guess back then, but afterward, it all happened too quickly,” Mu Yuchen responded frankly.

“Your guess?” A puzzled looked flashed in Mu Tangchuan’s eyes.

Mu Yuchen nodded gently and calmly lowered his gaze, his expression composed as usual. “Mmm, I have a way to prove my innocence. I just need some time.”

“That means you’re planning on staying here for quite a while then? It’s not looking good at Glory World, and it’s hard for Xiaye to hold on alone.” Mu Tangchuan did not continue asking.

Mu Yuchen’s gaze dimmed, and he said calmly, “I know. Tell her that I won’t take too long.”

“Okay, I will. Three days, in three days, if you can’t completely resolve this matter, then go with my arrangements.” Mu Tangchuan’s tone was quite solemn while his eyes were filled with a determination that could not be rejected.

Mu Yuchen paused, and after that, he suddenly smiled gladly and nodded. “Thanks, Father.”

Mu Tangchuan then lifted a hand to pat his shoulder. “Well then, you shall have to be wronged for the next few days.”

Mu Yuchen cleared his throat and said with a lowered voice, “No worries, I can get used to it. It’s much better than the army days, but it’s cold at night. Father, can you ask them to prepare a cleaner blanket? And bring me two sets of clean clothes to change into. I haven’t had a shuteye in almost two days.”

Mu Tangchuan raised his brows and looked at his son’s handsome face before grinning. “Considering my abilities, I can get you some blankets? And clothes to change into? Do you think this detention center is a luxury hotel that you’re staying at for work abroad? Spoiled brat!”

“Father…” Mu Yuchen frowned.

“Consider it an experience of life here. I’m leaving now!” Mu Tangchuan did not stay to negotiate. Before Mu Yuchen could speak up again, he already turned to leave the room.

As he watched Mu Tangchuan leave, Mu Yuchen’s brows furrowed into a knot. He suddenly thought if it was him who brought this upon himself.

He had sacrificed so much to come to this horrid place…

After he stayed quiet for a while, someone suddenly came. It was a very young policeman holding clean blankets and clothes that Mu Yuchen usually changed into. He respectfully said to him, “Master Mu, it’s quite cold and a little humid too. Everyone’s changed to new sheets. This is yours, and here are some clothes for you to change into. Missus Mu specially sent it over.”

When Mu Yuchen heard that, his brows that were furrowed slowly smoothened out. He quickly got up and asked, “Where’s she?”

One could hear a hint of anxiousness from his tone.

The policeman said, “She’s gone back, Master Mu. You still can’t see any family members or people as you wish. Please understand!”

Mu Yuchen then sighed as he sat back down helplessly. The hands underneath his sleeves slowly tightened into fists. His heart that had always been calm finally could not help but begin to feel a hint of annoyance.
