Chapter 165: Sneaking into the Boudoir at Night (1)_1
Old Man Mu was taken into the horse carriage hired by Zhang Bo and sent to the nearby Medical Center. Mu Zhongli and his son, both of whom were hurt to varying degrees, also got into the horse carriage and followed along.
Along the journey, the atmosphere between the main family significantly quieted down. The only sounds were Mu Chongfu’s painful grunts, the hissing gasps of Mu Chongcai, and the silence from Mu Zhongli who sat slouched down, his expressions a picture of complexity.
Mu Caiwei was practically a child he had watched grow up, a quiet youngster who tended to keep to herself. She was timid and reserved, not daring to speak loudly. Whenever she saw the main family members, her demeanour reminded him of a mouse facing a cat - she hardly dared to raise her head, stammering in her speech.
But it seemed that overnight, she had turned into a dominant force. She dared to resist them, to provoke them, to lay her hands on them, and had even easily defeated them...
He could not understand why she had changed so much. When did she acquire such impressive skills? How could the child who grew up before their eyes become suddenly so unfamiliar? She wasn’t only capable of setting up a restaurant in town and making it flourish, but she could also thrive in Yushu County City. If she wanted to get them out of jail, she could do it.
What happened? Why would an individual change so dramatically? Was she really the eldest daughter of the second family?
If it wasn’t for her face, which was exactly the same as before, he would never believe that she was Mu Caiwei.
"Cough...cough..."
Mu Liankui woke up, coughing violently from the shortness of breath caused by anger, his old face flushed. After catching his breath for a while, he said in a hoarse voice to his son and grandsons: "Listen well, from now on, none of you are allowed to look for trouble with the second room. You are forbidden to speak out harsh words. Cough... cough..."
Mu Chongfu became anxious, pointing at his palm pierced by the gold hairpin, and said: "Grandfather, why? Look at my palm. Are we just going to let it go?"
Mu Liankui cast a cold glance at him and said: "What else can you do if not let it go?"
