Zong Zhengyu lowered his head to look at Mu Anan in his arms and said coldly, “There’s no room for discussion.”
Mu Anan looked at Zong Zhengyu.
She could sense Seventh Master’s absolute attitude.
Having been by that man’s side for eight years, Mu Anan knew there was no room for negotiation given Seventh Master’s current attitude.
However, Mu Anan knew that she had to do it.
Even if she became bait, she had to track down all those people.
In the past, she thought that Jiang Zhen was her biggest enemy. But thinking about it, the mastermind was the key person.
Mu Anan looked at Zong Zhengyu stubbornly and asked, “Seventh Master, do you think I’m useless?”
Zong Zhengyu frowned and did not answer.
Mu Anan said, “Ever since I entered the Yuyuan Estate, you told me 1 could be a little princess who knew nothing. 1 don’t need to work hard. I just need to be happy. But at that time, I firmly told you that I didn’t want to be a good-for-nothing. I don’t want to be someone who is weak and knows nothing.”
She didn’t want to be a canary.
Because since then, Mu Anan knew she had fallen in love with a man.
That man had a noble status and was very capable.
If she wanted to be by that man’s side, she had to have enough ability to match him. Otherwise, she would become a burden to that man.
To avoid becoming a burden, Mu Anan began to practice boxing and learn all kinds of skills that she liked and disliked.
She went to many competitions behind Zong Zhengyu’s back and did many things.
She had been hurt, suffered, and rejected.
However, it did not matter to Mu Anan.
She only needed to remember her ultimate goal.
Mu Anan said, “Seventh Master, I want to eliminate this grudge. I want to use my ability to get rid of it.”
Zong Zhengyu remained silent.
Mu Anan continued, “Actually, you didn’t have to tell me about my mother, the Jiang family, and the mysterious power behind them. You only needed to tell me to go to the Jiang family to take revenge without scruples.”
“You said it was because you respected me and knew I had the right to know the truth. You also knew that I had the right to bear the truth.”
“So, Seventh Master, do you believe that I have the ability to deal with my own grudge?”
Mu Anan’s words were sincere and confident.
There was no impulsivity or agitation.
She was a genuine little princess raised by Zong Zhengyu to be superior. Even if she were to become bait, she was confident she could handle that matter well.
Zong Zhengyu looked at the girl in his arms silently.
The girl’s expression was calm, her gaze clear and confident.
Zong Zhengyu looked at that pair of eyes for a moment and was dazed.
It was because of her confident and stubborn gaze.
He was always defeated by Mu Anan’s gaze.
He was completely defenseless.
In the end, Zong Zhengyu compromised, “I’ll let Luo Sen follow you.”
“I have a suitable candidate who can protect me.” Mu Anan smiled.
She got up and hugged Zong Zhengyu, “Thank you, Seventh Master!”
“Don’t worry, I’ll protect myself and ensure I won’t get hurt.”
Zong Zhengyu didn’t say anything and just hugged Mu Anan.
However, he could not forget her stubborn and confident gaze.
“Seventh Master.” Mu Anan suddenly said.
“Yes.”
“I’m sleepy. I want to sleep for a while.” Her voice sounded naive.
It was her way of acting coquettishly toward that man without scruples after relaxing.
Zong Zhengyu carried Mu Anan up and placed her back on the bed.
Her feet were still wrapped in gauze. Zong Zhengyu’s hand went to Mu Anan’s injured spot and asked, “Does it hurt?”
Mu Anan shook her head, “It doesn’t hurt.”
Actually, it hurt.
Her ankle was sore and swollen, and the burned area was also stinging.
However, Mu Anan did not want to make Seventh Master’s heart ache.
Mu Anan had a very strange thought.
In the past, for small injuries or colds, which could have been ignored, she would exaggerate them to the point that it was earth-shattering in order to make Seventh Master’s heart ache so that Seventh Master would comfort her.
However, when she was really injured, she couldn’t bear to let Seventh Master’s heart ache.
“Brother Yu.”
“Yes.”
“I want to sleep, but I want you to accompany me.”
“I’ll be here to guard you.”
“The Jiang family can’t leave.”
“They can’t leave.”
“Brother Yu…” Mu Anan’s voice became muffled, and her eyelids became heavy.
The medicine that Dr. Gu had given her earlier contained sleep-inducing ingredients.
Mu Anan couldn’t resist the effects of the medicine.
“Brother Yu, I haven’t told you my little secret yet…However, I plan to tell you next time. Can you wait for me?”
“Alright.”
When Mu Anan gradually fell asleep with Zong Zhengyu’s accompaniment, the Jiang family’s car was still outside the thick iron gate of the Yuyuan Estate. Jianglan City occupied a large area, but its geographical location was relatively remote. Before the Yuyuan Estate was built, that area was basically undeveloped.
It was mainly because the city did not have the economic ability to develop well. After Zong Zhengyu arrived, he built a Yuyuan Estate and established a company, instantly raising Jianglan City’s economy.
Everyone said that Yuyuan Estate was a small city.
And the Nightless City in Yuyuan Estate was a bustling scene and a symbol of Jianglan City.
However, the Jiang family was shut out of that bustling city at that moment.
Jiang Zhen was getting anxious and kept looking at Guo Yuehua. “I’ve already sent people to inform them several times, but there’s still no reply. Should we…go back?”
Guo Yuehua was sitting in the backseat. When she heard Jiang Zhen’s words, she immediately glared at him and said, “Go back for what? Go back and wait for all the newspapers to publish tomorrow that your daughter’s private life is chaotic and she has an ambiguous relationship with many men?”
While waiting, Guo Yuehua had already understood the situation in Jiang Capital.
She also knew that the real cause of the Jiang Capital incident was the silver-haired youth called Zong Qi.
However, Guo Yuehua was able to distinguish the pros and cons. Zong Qi could be investigated further and could not escape.
But she had to settle the matter with Yuyuan Estate first.
She turned around and looked at Jiang Qin, who was leaning against the seat and looking out of the window in a daze. She looked bad.
“Then, are we continuing to wait?” Jiang Zhen asked again.
Guo Yuehua said with certainty, “Wait!”
The three members of the Jiang family waited for an entire night.
From the stars to the rising sun.
After a night of recuperation, Mu Anan’s mental state had almost recovered.
Mu Anan was not badly injured.
She was trapped in the fire because she had been knocked into and twisted her ankle when she turned around after picking up the hair clip. Plus, she was choked by the thick smoke, and hence she was trapped.
However, the injury on her foot was even more painful than the previous day.
After Mu Anan woke up, Seventh Master received an emergency call from the company and went to the study for a meeting.
Dr. Gu came over early in the morning to check on Mu Anan and change her dressing.
Mu Anan was sitting on the sofa with her feet on the armrest. Dr. Gu was sitting on the other sofa, changing her dressing.
Mu Anan said, “Dr. Gu, 1 was going to confess to Seventh Master yesterday.”
Dr. Gu’s hands paused. When he looked up at Mu Anan, he blurted out, “What?”
“I’m ready to confess.” Mu Anan said very seriously, “I will tell Seventh Master clearly about my feelings for him all these years and what happened that night. I will ask him if he wants to change my status and whether he can accept me!”
The more Dr. Gu listened, the more confused he became..
