After Dongzi left, only Kang Ruicheng was left in the huge living room.
The perimeter of the Kang family's old house is covered with protective checkpoints. The interior is also heavily guarded to protect the safety of the house.
Kangrui City is here, so there is no need to worry about anyone breaking in.
Anyone who tries to break in, even if they successfully pass all the external checkpoints, will definitely be stopped by the internal mechanisms and eventually die.
Logically speaking, this should be a place where Kangruicheng can feel at ease.
However, at this moment, he felt vaguely uneasy.
There are so many things that are uncertain -
Not sure what Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue have mastered; not sure what they are going to do; not sure when they will start taking action.
The most important thing is that he is not sure whether he can easily pass this level this time.
He had to admit that Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue were opponents that put him under pressure.
However, it would be too naive for Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue to completely defeat him.
He was Kang Ruicheng - the man who had forced them into despair and played them around in circles.
They want revenge, but how can it be so easy?
Kang Ruicheng thought and quietly broke a cigar in his hand.
Mu Mu came down from upstairs and saw the cigar falling to the ground.
He walked over and looked at Kang Ruicheng in confusion: "Daddy, what's wrong with you?"
Kang Ruicheng came back to his senses and denied it lightly: "I'm fine."
Mu Mu looked around Kangruicheng and said in a complaining tone: "You lied to me!"
Kang Ruicheng then turned his attention to Mu Mu——
Since when did he stop being able to deceive even a single child?
Or is it that Mumu is really much smarter than the average child?
"Daddy," Mu Mu pulled Kang Ruicheng's hand, "you obviously have something going on."
The tender voice of a child, the tone of concern...
Kang Ruicheng's whole heart felt inexplicably warm.
In the end, Kang Ruicheng felt ridiculous again.
He was so easily warmed by a child. How long had it been since he had felt warmth and tenderness?
Thinking of this, Kang Ruicheng inevitably thought of Xu Youning.
When he first followed him, Xu Youning obviously admired and liked him.
Xu Youning, who was fierce and resolute in front of others, showed a soft expression and a shy smile only when he walked in front of him.
If he has a headache, a fever, or some other discomfort, the first person to care about him will always be Xu Youning.
Whenever he cared about him, Xu Youning was no longer the best knife in his hands, nor was she the tenacious woman who gritted her teeth and overcame all difficulties to complete the task.
She is just a girl who cares about the person she loves.
She would tentatively approach him and ask him in a gentle voice what was wrong with him and if he wanted her to take care of him.
Kang Ruicheng didn't know if he had ever had feelings for Xu Youning.
All he knew was that he had never accepted Xu Youning.
Because he cultivated Xu Youning with a purpose from the beginning.
He wants to forge her into the sharpest knife he has, and finally insert it into Musijue's heart, allowing him to easily seize everything that belongs to Musijue.
As for women... with his status, what kind of woman does he want?
He can get a woman with a better figure and face than Xu Youning at any time.
But Xu Youning, there is only one.
Xu Youning is from G City, and her life experience is complicated enough. She is the only one who can easily gain the trust of Mu Sijue.
Therefore, he cannot accept Xu Youning and cannot let her and him be hindered by feelings.
Xu Youning watched him change women one after another, but he never had any trouble with him, nor did he show any sadness or jealousy.
Now, when I think about it carefully, it all seems like a joke.
Xu Youning was indeed forged into a sharp knife by him. However, when he sent her to Mu Sijue, she fell in love with him and stabbed him in turn.
For the sake of Mu Sijue, Xu Youning was willing to do anything.
Kang Ruicheng has never seen Xu Youning look so crazy.
She probably always admired him more than she liked him.
So, she could remain indifferent while watching him change women one after another.
She knew clearly his purpose of placing her next to Musijue, but she didn't resist.
At this moment, Kang Ruicheng discovered that many things were already fixed.
As the saying goes, this is fate.
However, he will never accept his fate easily!
"Mumu."
Kang Ruicheng suddenly called Mu Mu.
"Yes!" Mu Mu nodded and looked at Kang Ruicheng seriously.
"Would you be willing if I took you out of here?" Kang Ruicheng asked.
The first thing Mu Mu thought of was Xu Youning.
Aunt Youning is here, and of course he is reluctant to leave, but——
Mu Mu cautiously asked for confirmation: "Daddy, will you leave with me? Will we be together in the future?"
Kang Ruicheng gave Mu Mu an affirmative look and said, "Yes."
Although Aunt Youning can no longer be seen, daddy will be with him - Mu Mu feels that this is quite a bargain.
"I do!"
Mu Mu nodded, her expression as serious as before.
"We may need to leave here." Kang Ruicheng said, "With Aunt Youning."
Mu Mu stared and looked at Kang Ruicheng in disbelief——
Aunt Youning should be with Uncle Mu and brother Niannian.
If they take Aunt Youning away, won't Nian Nian lose her mommy?
Mu Mu jumped off the sofa, jumped in front of Kang Ruicheng, and said decisively: "No! We can't go with Aunt Youning."
Kang Ruicheng looked at Mu Mu in surprise: "Why?"
Mu Mu counted them one by one with her fingers: "Uncle Mu, Aunt Youning, and brother Niannian, they are a family. A family should be together, we cannot break them up."
Kang Ruicheng sneered: "Who told you these words? Su Jian'an?" Mu Sijue should not be able to say such emotional words, this is more like Su Jian'an's style.
"No." Mu Mu shook her head, pointed at herself, and said innocently, "That's what I said!"
"..." For a moment, Kang Ruicheng felt speechless. It took him a while to find his voice and said, "It was an accident that Mu Sijue and Aunt Youning became a family."
Mu Mu tilted her head and asked unclearly: "What do you mean?"
Kang Ruicheng emphasized: "Aunt Youning should be a family member with us. It is very reasonable for us to take Auntie Youning away."
Kang Ruicheng tried to reason with Mu Mu and persuade Mu Mu with reason.
What he didn't expect was that Mumu was more difficult to deal with than the adults he had met.
"I don't believe it." Mu Mu said with her hands on her hips, "I only know that Aunt Youning is Nian Nian's brother's mother. If we take Aunt You Ning away, Nian Nian's brother will be without a mother."
." As he spoke, his voice suddenly dropped, "Without mommy, brother Nian Nian will be very sad."
He was sure that Nian Nian's brother would be sad, and he knew how sad Nian Nian's brother would be.
Because he doesn't have a mommy either, he knows that feeling very well.
Only then did Kang Ruicheng realize that there was no point in trying to reason with Mu Mu. This kid had a lot of reasoning, and he said it more clearly than he did.
"Daddy," Mu Mu began to speak harshly, "if you take Aunt Youning with you, I won't go with you!"
Kang Ruicheng gritted his teeth in anger: "You——"
Mu Mu snorted, not listening to what Kang Ruicheng said, and turned around and went upstairs.
The negotiation between father and son broke up unhappily and ended in vain.
Kang Ruicheng looked at Mu Mu's back and felt a headache secretly.
For the first time, he felt that it might not be a good thing for a child to be too smart or too independent.
But was it really selfish for him to take Xu Youning away?
So, what about Xu Youning betraying their contract and falling in love with Mu Sijue?
So what if he is selfish? Xu Youning is betraying him!
Besides, he was just trying to restore everything to the way it was before, so it wasn't a very selfish act.
Mumu is still young and he doesn't understand.
In fact, Mumu knows everything.
He knew why his father took Aunt Youning away. He also knew that if Aunt Youning left, Uncle Mu and Niannian would not only be sad.
No, he has to find a way to tell Uncle Mu or Aunt Jian An about this!
Near noon, Kang Ruicheng left.
Mu Mu knew that his chance had come.
However, if he wants to sneak away like before, he will definitely not be able to escape.
After thinking for a while, Mumu quickly came up with a solution——
He changed his clothes and shoes, put on his backpack, walked out openly, and said to several of his men, "I want to go out."
The subordinate glanced at Mu Mu: "Brother Cheng said that you can't go anywhere without his company or permission."
"Huh?" Mu Mu pretended to be curious, "When did my dad say that?"
The subordinate glanced at Mu Mu again: "I said it before leaving the house."
Kang Ruicheng expected that Mu Mu would go to Mu Sijue or Su Jian'an and gave his men a death order in advance. Mu Mu could not be let out no matter what today.
Mu Mu also knew that his father was starting to be wary of him.
He flattened his mouth, and the next second, he cried like magic: "Wow——"
"..."
All the men were stunned.
Before Kang Ruicheng went out, he only said that Mumu couldn't be allowed to run out, but he didn't say how to comfort the little guy when he cried.
Moreover, looking at Mumu's posture, it doesn't look like she can be coaxed in a short while...
"Wow wow wow...wuwuwu..."
The more Mu Mu cried, the louder and louder she became, as if she had suffered some great grievance at home.
The subordinates knew that Mu Mu had acting talent, but when such a cute child cried like this and was the son of their boss, they could not help but feel distressed.
"Mumu, what do you want?" His subordinate asked helplessly.
Mu Mu paused and said in a normal tone: "Just call my daddy."
That's right, when talking, Mu Mu returned to normal, as if the child who was crying just now was not him.
The men can be sure that Mu Mu's crying was completely an act.
"By the way -" Mu Mu emphasized, "You must tell my daddy, I cried so hard!"
