Chapter 289: Coaxing the Girl in Public

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Dr. Gu watched Zong Zhengyu walk out with Mu Anan in his arms and immediately turned around to open the car’s backseat door.

The closer they got, the more Dr. Gu could see Zong Zhengyu and Mu Anan’s condition.

Zong Zhengyu had always been a god-like existence in the hearts of ordinary people in Jianglan City due to the Zong family’s status and his style of doing things.

He was mighty and unreachable.

It was as if he would never be in a sorry state and would always be noble and glorious.

However, that was only because Zong Zhengyu’s image and status were something that ordinary people could not come into contact with. That was why they had such a perfect image of him.

The real Zong Zhengyu was just flesh and blood.

Because he was too anxious about Mu Anan, he was unprepared when he rushed into the sea of fire.

After all, it was a place filled with smoke and flames. Though Zong Zhengyu brought Mu Anan out, he was also injured.

There was nothing wrong from his front view, but when Zong Zhengyu put Mu Anan into the car, his back was already charred.

Zong Zhengyu was wearing a black suit, so Dr. Gu could not tell if Zong Zhengyu was injured or not because his face did not show any emotion.

When Seventh Master placed Mu Anan in the car seat, he said only one word, “Return!”

“Anan!”

Just as Zong Zhengyu finished speaking, an anxious shout sounded from not far away.

Chen Hua came out of nowhere and wanted to get near, but she was stopped by Luo Sen.

In the past, Chen Hua had never been stopped when she approached the Yuyuan Estate convoy.

Chen Hua was even the only outsider Zong Zhengyu had invited to the Yuyuan Estate banquet.

All of that honor was because of Mu Anan.

But after that day, it would be different.

Chen Hua had no choice but to shout, “I don’t mean any harm. I just want to know if Anan is hurt and if she’s safe!”

In the face of Chen Hua’s shout, Luo Sen was still expressionless, and his actions to stop Chen Hua did not decrease.

Zong Zhengyu didn’t even turn around and entered the car.

Just as the bodyguard was about to close the car door, Mu Anan, who was leaning weakly against the car seat, suddenly reached out and blocked the door, “Wait a minute.”

Mu Anan’s voice was extremely hoarse because she had inhaled the smoke for too long. Her throat felt dry and painful the moment she spoke.

Zong Zhengyu took a cup of warm water and fed it to Mu Anan.

Mu Anan was about to speak, but Zong Zhengyu pulled her into his arms and pushed the cup to her mouth.

“Drink.” His voice was very cold, but in the next second, he realized that the girl had just come out of the fire and was still in shock.

He instantly softened his tone, “Drink some water before you talk.”

Mu Anan stared at Zong Zhengyu weakly.

She had been in the flames for too long. Her usually fair and delicate face now had several dark marks.

When she opened her eyes to look at Zong Zhengyu, she moved closer into Zong Zhengyu’s embrace.

She was like a frightened little deer who felt wronged.

It was as if she would cry on the spot if Zong Zhengyu were to say another harsh word to her.

Seventh Master immediately surrendered and coaxed her, “Good girl, your throat is uncomfortable. Drink the water first before you speak, okay?”

His tone when saying ‘okay’ was very soft and gentle.

However, Mu Anan was still staring at Zong Zhengyu. She had no intention of drinking water. Her eyes were even a little red.

Seeing that, Zong Zhengyu embraced and coaxed her, “I was wrong, girl. 1 shouldn’t have been fierce to you. I won’t be fierce to you anymore, okay?” “Girl, don’t be angry, okay?”

At that moment, the car door was wide open. Outside the car was a group of Yuyuan Estate bodyguards. They looked at the mighty, cold, and ruthless Seventh Master.

Some passers-by even stole a glance at the car.

There were two rounds of Yuyuan Estate bodyguards surrounding the car. Though they couldn’t hear the voices inside the car, they could clearly see that the man, who was extremely distant from anyone, was patiently coaxing the girl in his arms.

What was happening outside didn’t matter to Seventh Master at all.

He patiently coaxed the girl in his arms.

However, the girl in his arms could not be coaxed. She felt very wronged and kept shrinking into Seventh Master’s arms.

In the end, Seventh Master sighed and gently rubbed Mu Anan’s face, “Should I get someone to call Chen Hua in?”

As soon as he said that, the young girl who had been feeling wronged finally had a reaction.

She wet her lips slightly as it touched the rim of the cup.

Zong Zhengyu was feeding Mu Anan water.

The temperature of the water was just right, neither hot nor cold. Mu Anan’s sore throat felt much better after drinking it.

Zong Zhengyu did what he said.

After Mu Anan finished drinking the water, he gave Luo Sen a look.

Luo Sen immediately took half a step back and let Chen Hua in.

Although Chen Hua was let through, she only walked to the car door and dared not approach.

She looked at Mu Anan carefully, “Anan, are you alright?”

Mu Anan shook her head and tried to say, “I’m fine.”

Her voice was normal, but her throat was still a little uncomfortable.

Chen Hua bit her lip. It was obvious that she had something to say to Mu Anan, but she suddenly didn’t know what to say.

She clenched her hands tightly before her and was at a loss.

Zong Zhengyu’s brows were tightly knitted, showing his impatience.

He didn’t let Chen Hua in because he wanted to see her remain silent.

Before Seventh Master could chase her away impatiently, Mu Anan spoke first, “Chen Hua, I can’t trust you completely anymore.”

When Chen Hua heard that, her body stiffened.

Mu Anan looked at her sincerely, “When all the evidence pointed to you, I could trust you without reservation. But what happened after that disappointed me so much that I couldn’t trust you anymore even with what you have said.”

She had already expressed those words in the hotel room.

However, Mu Anan felt that since both sides had calmed down, they needed to clarify that matter again.

“However, 1 will not easily sentence you to death. This matter…”

Mu Anan looked at Dr. Gu.

When Dr. Gu met Mu Anan’s eyes, he immediately understood what she meant.

Mu Anan said, “Dr. Gu, please investigate Chen Hua’s incident again carefully, starting with her parents and brother. I want a result.”

Was it a misunderstanding or a real betrayal?

She wanted a complete and confirmed truth and result.

Dr. Gu nodded, “Leave this to me.”

Mu Anan looked at Chen Hua and was about to continue speaking when she suddenly felt an itch in her throat. Mu Anan started coughing uncomfortably.

Zong Zhengyu took the cup that was filled with water and fed Mu Anan another half cup.

There was already an impatient look on his face, “Girl.”

Mu Anan looked at Zong Zhengyu with an aggrieved expression, “Seventh Master, I have one last thing to say.”

Zong Zhengyu placed the empty cup aside.

Seeing Mu Anan in such a weak state yet still wanting to handle those matters, he was naturally unhappy.

But Seventh Master couldn’t handle the girl looking at him aggrievedly.

As long as the girl looked at him aggrievedly, he would instantly surrender and agree to anything.

Just like then..
