Chapter 1172: Into the Dream 16
Mu Family’s old house, when Mu Haiyun returned, her expression was more haggard than ever before. The haggardness carried a kind of chill that made anyone shiver with fear at just one glance.
Just then Mu Yi came out, and when he saw Mu Haiyun like this, he frowned.
"Haiyun!"
Mu Haiyun raised her gaze to Mu Yi, her expression indifferent, completely unlike her usual graceful and dignified self.
"Dad, what’s done is done. There’s no use in saying more. Besides, although I held the press conference without permission, it clearly had a good response!"
Mu Yi: "..."
Looking at his daughter’s indifferent expression, Mu Yi’s face changed slightly.
"Haiyun, what exactly is going on?"
How could his daughter, Mu Haiyun, cause such news?
Even if it happened, not contacting the family at the first instance, how could this still be his daughter Mu Haiyun, her style of handling things was so different than before.
But since his daughter encountered such an incident, as a father he couldn’t ask too much.
"You should go in first, your grandmother and your mom are waiting for you!"
Mu Haiyun coldly acknowledged, not looking at Mu Yi, she quickly went inside.
Standing in the cold wind, Mu Yi’s eyes were filled with frost.
Daring to scheme against his daughter, they were simply tired of living.
That man who looked very much like Bai Chenyao, was called Xu Tai, right?
Xu Tai, a member of the Shen Family.
Ha!
The Shen Family; now two grandchildren are involved, their grandson Shen Tianhai was caught red-handed gambling. Even though the Shen Family stood behind him, it was impossible to cover it up because the matter was significant and had been reported.
And then there’s Shen Bohong, who continues to insist that nothing happened, but thinking of his youngest daughter narrowly escaping a setup, and even one of the kidnappers carried a gun, the chill around Mu Yi was colder than a winter snowfall.
Thinking of his daughter just returning and having gone through such an ordeal, Mu Yi punched a nearby stone, immediately staining his fist with blood.
Then, with a cold face, he went directly to the back of the old house, entered through the small back door, avoiding the living room, and went straight to his father’s study.
Mu Qinghan, who hadn’t left his study since the incident began, finally showed a trace of emotion on his aged face when he saw his son come in.
"Has Haiyun returned?"
Mu Yi nodded, his voice dry.
"Just got back!"
Mu Qinghan lightly acknowledged, nodded towards Mu Yi, gesturing for him to sit down first.
Mu Yi reached up to tug at his tie, pacing irritably in the study.
"Dad, I’m going to find Xu Tai now!"
Mu Qinghan still had a calm face, looking serious.
"What’s the use of going to him now? Beat him up?"
Mu Yi: "..."
Taking a deep breath, he wiped his face with his hand, his voice hoarse.
"That would be better than doing nothing!"
Mu Qinghan’s gaze instantly turned cold.
"They’re just waiting for you to beat someone up! They’re eager for Mu Family’s news! Haiyun isn’t a child; why would she cause such news? Why don’t you think about it carefully?"
Mu Yi’s face turned dark as he looked at Mu Qinghan.
"But Haiyun—"
"You know Haiyun’s character, you’re her father, don’t you?"
"Over the years, when has she ever done such a thing? And this time, not only did she admit to doing it, but she was also photographed. What does that tell you?"
Mu Yi: "..."
He really couldn’t figure it out, and he knew that what his father said made sense. But why?
Unless... it was actually Haiyun scheming against someone else, yet her cleverness backfired, and she ended up being schemed against in return.
Mu Yi’s restless heart instantly turned cold.
