The corner of Mu Rufeng's lips trembled, and she was speechless for a while. He asked curiously: "When did you get interested?"
Xiao Chengyi replied seriously: "When she was five or six years old."
Mu Rufeng looked shocked, then reacted: "Have you met Yan Yan when you were a child?"
Xiao Chengyi nodded: "When I was living in the capital and almost lost my life, it was Yan Yan and her mother who saved me."
Mu Rufeng had no idea that this was happening. He murmured: "No wonder you are more tolerant towards Yan Yan. You can forgive her no matter what outrageous things she has done."
He sighed softly, reached out and patted Xiao Chengyi's shoulder and said: "I feel relieved to leave Yan Yan to you, but there are ugly words ahead. If Yan Yan doesn't want this marriage, you can't force it."
Xiao Chengyi looked at him with serious eyes, full of confidence: "She will be willing."
Mu Rufeng snorted softly, thinking that this boy was too confident. His daughter had always treated him as an older brother, and she was afraid that she had no love for him at all.
I don’t know where he got the confidence to make Yan Yan fall in love with him?
Thinking that her pampered baby daughter was being targeted, Mu Rufeng felt a little uncomfortable, so she even looked at Xiao Chengyi with displeasure: "Who did what happened today? Have you found out? If so.
If you can't even find out this little thing, how can you clear your parents' grievances?"
Xiao Chengyi: "..."
Facing the rebuke from his future father-in-law, he could only respond in a dull voice: "I'll go check it out right away. I won't let my father-in-law down!"
After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and saluted Mu Rufeng, then turned around and walked away.
Mu Rufeng looked at Xiao Chengyi's leaving figure, his face twitched, and he laughed and cursed: "You bastard."
He has always felt guilty about what happened back then. Now that he has the chance to make up for it, he should stand by Xiao Chengyi's side and do his best to help him and protect him.
What he protects is the son of his old friend, and it is also the justice in his heart.
...
After Xiao Chengyi left, he left the house again. He sneaked back into Jingyue Tower without anyone noticing and came to Liu's mother's room.
Liu's mother had a headache again because she lost Mu Yunan. She lit a strong soothing incense in the room before she fell asleep lightly. However, not long after she closed her eyes, a chill came to her heart.
She opened her eyes suddenly and saw a person standing in front of her bed. In the dark room, she couldn't see the person's face clearly, but she could feel the cold chill on his body.
Mother Liu sat up suddenly, her whole body trembling and asked, "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
Xiao Chengyi said in a cool voice: "Tell me, who sold that girl to Jingyue Tower?"
Although he didn't say which girl he was, Liu's mother knew who he was talking about. She trembled and shouted: "Someone, help!"
Xiao Chengyi let her shout, but no one came outside, and the entire Jingyue Tower seemed to be eerily quiet.
Liu's mother realized something was wrong and got up to run away.
Xiao Chengyi pushed her to the ground with one kick, and his cold and stern voice revealed a bit of murderous intent: "Tell me, who is it?"
Mother Liu fell face down to the ground, knocking out one of her front teeth. She endured the pain and knelt on the ground, rubbing her hands and saying, "Sir, spare your life, I say, I say!"
After explaining the person who abducted Mu Yun'an, Liu's mother cried: "I have said everything that needs to be said. I would like to advise you, the master behind Jingyue Tower is not someone you can offend. You'd better leave quickly."
