Mu Rufeng's whole body was shocked, and his face gradually revealed a look of deathly gray, and even the light in his eyes dimmed little by little. He did not answer Xiao Chengyi's question, and just stood there in a daze.
When Xiao Chengyi saw his hesitation, his heart suddenly went cold. He closed his eyes and thought of Mu Yun'an's face.
His Yan Yan is still waiting for him to go back? What is he doing here?
Xiao Chengyi didn't want to ask any more, he smiled and said: "My father-in-law has been upright and upright in his life. I shouldn't doubt you. I was just confused for a moment. Just pretend I haven't been here today."
With that said, he turned around and was about to leave, but Mu Rufeng suddenly called him: "Yi'er."
Xiao Chengyi paused, but did not look back.
Mu Rufeng looked at his back and her eyes gradually became wet: "I am sorry for you!"
A chill ran down Xiao Chengyi's spine, and his whole body began to tremble uncontrollably. He turned back to look at Mu Rufeng and said, "What are you talking about, father-in-law?"
Mu Rufeng closed her eyes with a look of pain on her face: "Your father is actually..."
"Stop talking!"
Xiao Chengyi interrupted him sharply: "I don't want to hear it!"
Mu Rufeng walked up to him, held his arm and finished what he just said: "I actually killed your father. I killed him with my own hands."
"No!"
Xiao Chengyi waved away Mu Rufeng's hand and staggered back a few steps. He shook his head and refused to believe that this was the truth: "I don't believe it, how could it be you? Why could it be you?"
Mu Rufeng was heartbroken. He looked at Xiao Chengyi with tears in his eyes and said, "It's me. Everyone thinks your father died in Yuan Hao's hands, but in fact it was me who killed him.
Your father's situation back then was beyond hope, and I couldn't let the entire general's palace bury him with him, so..."
Xiao Chengyi broke down and scolded him angrily: "So you killed him and went to claim credit from Yuan Hao? You used my father's life to save the lives of everyone in your general's house?"
Mu Rufeng regretted it and nodded and admitted: "Yes!"
Back then, he had indeed exchanged the life of Prince Chen for the lives of his entire Mu family.
When Xiao Chengyi heard his confession, he felt like a knife was stabbed in his heart. He looked at Mu Rufeng with red eyes and asked again: "Did you expect that today would happen, so you sent my mother away?"
of?"
"yes."
Mu Rufeng indeed sent Xin Ruyi away because of today's situation. He said: "You told me before that Shen Wanyue had the ability to predict the future and that she knew many secrets. I was afraid that I couldn't keep my secrets, so I did my best.
Got today’s plans.
In fact, ever since I learned about your life experience, I have been terrified day and night, fearing that one day you will know the truth. In fact, even if Shen Wanyue doesn't tell you, I plan to confess to you and settle things."
Xiao Chengyi found it ridiculous: "Then when are you going to tell me? After I marry Yan Yan? Is my engagement with her real or fake?"
Mu Rufeng said: "It's a lie. I lied to you. I saw that you liked Yan Yan, so I made up the marriage contract. I thought that if you knew the truth of the matter in the future, at least Yan Yan would not be implicated.
"
"Hahaha!"
Xiao Chengyi's smile was a little sad and a little crazy. He pointed at Mu Rufeng and said, "In order to protect the Mu family, you even plotted against your own daughter. Do you think I, Xiao Chengyi, must be her?"
