Not too long after lunch, Mu Yinan went upstairs to his study room and Mu Tangchuan followed him closely behind.

At this moment, inside Mu Yinan’s study room, Mu Yinan was smoking while Mu Tangchuan elegantly steeped some tea. Upon getting a whiff of the faint of smoke, Mu Tangchuan brought the steeped tea to Mu Yinan. “Father, you haven’t been well recently. You should smoke less and drink more nouris.h.i.+ng beverages.”

As Mu Tangchuan said that, he took the cigarette away from between Mu Yinan’s fingers and put it out in the ashtray on the side.

“It’s fine. Your mother’s been watching me. I don’t smoke often anyway.”

Mu Yinan picked the tea up and took a sip. His aged eyes suddenly flickered with a faint light as he said in a deep voice, “I’ve gotten someone to find out more about Ah Chen’s matter this time. I’m sure you know more than a little about it too, don’t you?”

Mu Tangchuan sighed and nodded. “I’ve heard from the police bureau, and know a bit more from Li Si.”

“Sigh, it was a slip of the tongue. Unexpectedly, it caused such severe consequences. Thankfully, back then, Ah Rong had objected. Otherwise, we might have brought harm to Ah Chen. We really can’t be sure who did it this time. Was it Qi Qiming? Or Gu Qiwu and the rest? Speaking of Gu Qiwu, right from the start I’ve always thought that he… was too shortsighted. He has deep suspicions, and you suffered some loss under him back then too. All these years, the Mus and the Gus relations.h.i.+p has been fading. This might not be a bad thing for us,” Mu Yinan lamented with some self-blame.

“Father, you don’t need to blame yourself. The children all have their own thoughts. All these years, the Gu family hasn’t been on good terms with us, especially when we reached Gu Qiwu’s generation, so you don’t have to care too much about it either. Actually, there isn’t anything necessarily good about the so-called combining of prestigious families by marriage. Look at Qi Qiming and w.a.n.g Qin. Were they not a tragedy? As long as the children are happy, right now they don’t care about those things. They aren’t living as conservatively as the older generation like us.”

Mu Tangchuan thought about it, then lowered his head to take a sip of tea.

“You’ve got a point. As long as they’re happy, yet there aren’t many people that can be understood thoroughly. You don’t know that all these years, every time I think about your sister’s incident, I’d feel extremely pained, but I never dared bring this up in front of your mother. You know how this incident is like a thorn in her heart. All these years, Lingtian and Lings.h.i.+… Thankfully, you and Ah Rong are understanding. Lingtian’s matter has been a sore thorn in Ah Chen’s heart all these years. We can’t rule out that the incident this time wasn’t a trick from Qi Qiming and the rest. I’m a little worried,” said Qi Qiming gloomily as he set his teacup aside.

“Father, alright, just leave these things for the children to worry about themselves. Why are you always thinking about this? Isn’t it enough to just live life happily with Mother and me? About my sister, Lingtian’s incident, and all of those things that have long pa.s.sed, can’t you just let them stay in the past?”

When Mu Zixi was brought up, Mu Tangchuan’s expression seemed broody.

“Tangchuan, you don’t know that even though your mother doesn’t say it, she’s just like me. This is still an unfulfilled wish. I think Lings.h.i.+ and Ah Mo’s wedding can be sped up. Even though you and Ah Rong treat them like your own children…”

When Mu Yinan said this, he suddenly could not continue. His aged eyes could not help but seem a little sorrowful.

When Mu Tangchuan saw that Mu Yinan was rather downhearted, he served him more tea as he advised, “Father, alright, don’t be sad now. There’s still time. If you want to look for them, you’ll still be able to.”

“Do you not have any news at all?” Mu Yinan looked up to Mu Tangchuan and asked.

News?

Ever since they found nothing out from before, he had not put in much thought into the investigation. If that man deliberately did not want to acknowledge his two children, even if he found him, what could he do? It would only add another burden to Lings.h.i.+’s heart.

Sometimes, ignorance was bliss.

Of course, Mu Tangchuan knew that Mu Yuchen and Mu Lings.h.i.+ had been secretly trying to find him all these years, and he did not stop them either.

Knock knock!

Before Mu Tangchuan could answer, there was a rap on the door.

“Come in!”

As Mu Yinan said that, Mu Yuchen’s figure slowly appeared.

“Grandfather, Father,” Mu Yuchen greeted simply, and then turned to close the door. After that, he walked over and sat down calm and collectedly.

“It looks like these past few days have been good for your spirit.” Mu Tangchuan looked lovingly at Mu Yuchen as he poured him a cup of tea.

Mu Yuchen smiled calmly. “It’s alright. Luckily, I could also sort out some things on my mind.”

“I’ve roughly understood the incident from them. Who would have such guts to take you on?” As Mu Yinan said that, his aged face turned rigid as a chill pervaded him all over.

“I can’t be sure about that too. Don’t worry, Grandfather. I’ll handle it.” Mu Yuchen lowered his gaze while his tone was quite calm, yet the light in his eyes flickered from dark to light.

“Ah Chen, I know what you’re thinking, but you don’t have to take on the whole thing alone. It’s easy to dodge the spear in the open, but hard to avoid a stab in the dark. Can you guarantee that this incident won’t happen a second time? You have to be more careful. Xiaye handled the company matters well. These few years, the Mu family has been attracting much criticism. Tangchuan, you have to be more careful. Don’t get caught as a topic for gossip. There are many eyes watching the two of you.”

“Ah Chen, be honest with me. Was this time’s incident really the work of Qi Qiming? As revenge for Qi Feng?”

“Grandfather, Father, there are many things I still can’t be sure of, so I can’t tell you the answers, but I do have something that I can tell you. Lingtian pa.s.sed away in that car accident years ago while Gu Lingsha and Qi Feng lived. Before this, I sent Ah Mo and Lings.h.i.+ to France to investigate this.”

When Mu Yuchen finished, Mu Yinan and Mu Tangchuan’s expressions sank.

Mu Yuchen sighed. He looked down at the teacup before him. Moments after that, he suddenly got up slowly and said with waning interest, “He’s not doing too well. In fact, he might be returning soon. I hope that you two won’t interfere with this. Just let me resolve the grudges between us. I don’t want to implicate so many people. There’s been too many who were involved all these years. I don’t want to blow these grudges up, and I hope that you can both agree to this request of mine…”

Then, without waiting for their answers, Mu Yuchen’s clear figure vanished out of the door.
