Chapter 161: I’m Not Yet Married, Continued (3)_1
Mu Chongfu and Mu Chongcai were also released. After several days in the oppressive darkness of prison, their hatred for Caiwei ran bone-deep. When they heard their grandpa berating that little bitch, Mu Caiwei, they eagerly joined in the denouncement of her heartlessness and cruelty.
As Mu Zhongqing saw the impassioned outcry from his family, he couldn’t help but feel relieved that he had pulled Wei’er aside earlier. Otherwise, who knew what sort of uproar it would have caused.
"Older brother, say something. Did we suffer in prison for nothing? We are your own father, brothers, and nephews!"
Mu Zhongli wasn’t pleased with his older brother’s silence. As a scholar, he highly valued manners and filial piety. His daughter had sent her own grandfather to prison, and he had no reason to ignore this!
Mu Zhongqing stayed silent for a while before saying, "Everyone has been in jail for a few days. You must have not eaten or slept well. How about we find a restaurant and have a good meal while we talk?"
His suggestion was immediately agreed upon by Mu Chongfu and Mu Chongcai. After eating pig food in prison for a few days, they were ready to enjoy a proper meal. Seeing their sons and grandchildren eager to go, Mu Zhongli and Mu Liankui did not object, and followed Mu Zhongqing in a grand procession to a nearby restaurant.
When Cai Wei returned to Baohe Medical Clinic, Huo Yuan had already woken up, leaning on a pillow as his coachman clumsily helped him drink water. When he saw Caiwei walk in, his deep eyes instantly lit up.
"You’re here."
There was a hint of pleasant surprise in his voice. Even though he knew she would come again, he didn’t expect her to arrive this quickly, and he was completely taken aback.
