Chapter 67.3

Bai Suqing stared at the car while it grew smaller and frowned fiercely once it disappeared . She took out her phone and stared hesitatingly at the keyboard, feeling scared . In the end, she decided to dial the numbers .

The phone rang for quite a while before an oppressive male voice sounded . “Hello?”

Bai Suqing trembled, her lips quivering as her eyes filled with terror . “It… It’s me…”

“Have you settled the matter already?” Translated by The Novelst

“N… No, sorry! I didn’t do it on purpose . It was that woman Mu Rulan . She’s so hard to deal with! She…” Bai Suqing tried to explain, but the man on the other end didn’t want to hear it .

“Hmph . During these three months, what have you been doing? You can’t handle even an ordinary girl; how am I supposed to trust you to take over the Mu and Ke wealth?”

Bai Suqing panicked . “Please believe me . I can handle it, Mu Zhenyang has already promised to adopt me into the Mu Family . As long as I become one of the Mu Family, I will definitely take over Mu Rulan’s place in both Mu Zhenyang and Ke Wanqing’s hearts and take away the Ke Family’s affection for Mu Rulan!”

“Hmph, that better be true . Why did you call me?”

Bai Suqing sighed with relief . “An amazing person seems to have appeared in K City . I can’t even look him in the eye due to fear . My instinct tells me that he can see right through me . This person can be the greatest obstacle to our plans . ”

In Bai Suqing’s eyes, Mu Rulan wasn’t terrifying, it was only Mo Qianren .

“Oh?” The person on the other side seemed to take an interest in the matter . “Who’s this person?”

“It’s someone surnamed Mo, he doesn’t seem to be from K City . ”

“Mo… Sh*t! It can’t be that person… Can it?!” He swore in disbelief and anger .

“Brother?” Bai Suqing couldn’t help but shout .

“Shut up! Do not call me brother!” He answered coldly .

Bai Suqing was taken aback and began to tremble again, her thoughts filling with grievances .

“Avoid him in the future . I don’t want any mistakes; don’t get cheeky and overconfident and provoke him, either . You hear me?”

“I understand,” Bai Suqing answered while pouting . Even if she wanted to, she couldn’t because she didn’t dare look him in the eye . Being seen through was terrifying .

At that very moment someone knocked on Bai Suqing’s door . She hung up and opened the door to reveal Mu Zhenyang standing there, smiling shy and sweet: “Daddy~!”

Mu Zhenyang’s whole body turned numb at that . Seeing the warmth radiating from Bai Suqing’s eyes, he reached out to hold her hand on their way downstairs . “Let’s go . Come eat with father and we will go pay a visit to Mayor Zhou . ”

“I don’t know yet . We’ll know when we get there,” he responded, smiling .

Bai Suqing nodded, letting Mu Zhenyang hold her hand . On the inside she was disgusted that this feeble old man always took advantage of her .

Mu Zhenyang and Bai Suqing dined at home before heading to the mayor’s house by car .

Mayor Zhou and his wife, Huafang, were anxiously waiting at their home .

A policeman had come moments ago to take away their daughter . They were startled and began to panic, thinking that despite already having destroyed all the evidence, the police were at their doorstep in such a short amount of time . They felt needles pierce their hearts remembering the pitiful way Zhou Yaya cried and begged and held on to them, not wanting to leave .

She was their only daughter . They couldn’t stand to see her suffer a single loss, so how could they ignore the fact that she was going to jail?

Zhou Sulun sat in the living room . Seeing the two panic, he became impatient and said, “Father, Mother, why are you both like this? It’s not like Mu Rulan died . Yaya is only fifteen . The law will surely show some leniency in this matter . She’ll be locked away for two to three years at most, or maybe just be sent to juvie . ”

“Shut up! What are you saying? Is this something that you, as a brother, should be saying?!” Huafang spit at him .

Zhou Sulun ignored her . “I’m just trying to look at things objectively . Zhou Yaya is only fifteen, so she’ll be seventeen or eighteen when she returns . She can start over no problem . But you guys on the other hand, a mayor and entrepreneur covering for her – think about the consequences once it comes out and everyone learns what you did!”

Wasn’t it obvious that their business was going to suffer?

Zhou Sulun was right . Both the Mu siblings suffered no injuries and were alive and well . Zhou Yaya was also young; as long as they found a good lawyer Zhou Yaya’s actions could be portrayed as simple mischief .

If this was rejected, Zhou Yaya could also have a mental illness: paranoid psychosis, by hiring a doctor to examine . This kind of mental illness didn’t require hospitalization nor did it need to be forcefully treated, but wasn’t it still a mental illness?

The law was a little more tolerant towards psych patients . As long as she wasn’t killing people, setting fires to settlements or other horrible things, she would most likely be sentenced for one to three years .

Yet Mayor Zhou and Huafang had destroyed all the evidence of her crimes, and now they intended to tell Mu Zhenyang about something they really shouldn’t be speaking of . If they were exposed, Mayor Zhou would surely be forced to step down from his position .

That was why Zhou Sulun disagreed very strongly to their idea .  Translated by The Novelst

Mayor Zhou and Huafang shared a look and warned him . “At this point, we should be working together as a family to solve the problem at hand . Yaya is your only little sister . You can’t fault us for wanting to help her… don’t think that mother doesn’t know you like Mu Rulan . Liking her is one thing, but whether she likes you back is another . Stop being delusional and holding back our family!”
