âWhat youâre destroying now is my innocence! Why donât we call the police? If I do it, Iâm willing to go to jail!â Mu Ciâs tone was calm.
Duan Si was stunned.
Song Nan sobbed. âMu Ci, what do you mean? Am I going to slander you with my innocence? We grew up together. Am I that kind of person? I know you donât love me, but we grew up together. How can you treat me like this? Are you going to force me to death?â
Song Nan became more and more agitated and cried uncontrollably. Duan Siâs heart ached immediately and he said to Mu Ci angrily, âHow can you say that? If you call the police, how can Song Nan face the Mu Family?â
Mu Ci said coldly, âWhat about my face? If you donât plan to clear my name, Iâll prove my innocence. If you donât call the police, Iâll call the police. If you continue to frame me, Iâll find a lawyer to fight the lawsuit! In short, I wonât admit to what I didnât do! If you plan to deny it, letâs fall out and get to the bottom of it!
âY-you unfilial son, are you trying to anger me to death? Huh? Are you trying to anger me to death?â Duan Si had completely lost her mind. She pounced on Mu Ci and slapped him twice.
Bei Shuo screamed and was about to rush over to stop her when Luo Bing hugged her and whispered into her ear, âDonât be a hindrance!â
Bei Shuo looked at Luo Bing in bewilderment.
Luo Bing shook her head. âMu Ci knows his limits.â
Mu Ci let Duan Si hit him without moving, and his gaze became even colder.
Duan Si scolded angrily, âWho are you putting on such a sarcastic expression for? What do I owe you? Itâs only right for me to dote on your younger brother more! Heâs your biological younger brother! You donât take me seriously as your mother. Youâre an unfilial son. Youâre nothing!â
Sister Ming really couldnât stand it anymore. Afraid that Madam would say something inappropriate in her anger, she hurriedly went forward to stop her. âMadam! Madam! Donât be angry. Speak slowly!â
Duan Si panted heavily. Her tears and snot were smeared on her makeup, and her hair was disheveled.
Mu Ciâs clothes were also wrinkled, and the two palm prints on her face were clearly visible, but his expression was even colder.
âArenât you able to stand up? Why are you still pretending? Do you think 1 can feel sorry for you just because youâre pretending to be a cripple?â Duan Si was pulled by Sister Ming. She turned around and glared at Mu Ci fiercely.
Mu Ci stood up from the wheelchair and tidied his clothes. He said calmly, âWhen have you ever felt sorry for me in your life? What difference does it make in your eyes if Iâm crippled? Iâve been sitting in this wheelchair for more than 10 years. Itâs just a habit. Because if 1 donât sit in a wheelchair, I donât even have a place to sit when I come to this house.â
âYouââ Duan Si was speechless.
Sister Ming was still rational and said sincerely, âEldest Young Master, donât say that. Tell me what you want to do about Miss Song Nan!â
Mu Ci glanced at the fierce-looking old servant and rolled up his sleeves. He said calmly, âI have nothing to say. Either you call the police, or I will! Let me know when youâve thought it through! Bei Shuo, Senior Brother Luo Bing, letâs go-â
Mu Ci pulled Bei Shuo from Luo Bingâs hand and walked out of the door.
His footsteps were extremely steady.
Duan Si, Song Nan, and Sister Ming were stunned.
âBei Shuoââ Song Nan hurriedly stood up.
Bei Shuo stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Song Nan.
Mu Ci wanted to pull her away, so she gestured for Mu Ci to give her some time.
âBei Shuo, Iâm sorry. 1 know 1 hurt you, but I didnât do it on purpose. I have no choice now. If you and Mu Ci donât help me, Iâll die,â Song Nan said as tears welled up in her eyes.
Bei Shuo smiled. âMiss Song Nan, am I a fool in your heart? An easy-to-fool country girl? You want me to leave Brother Mu Ci and fulfill your wish with your innocence?
Song Nan bit his lip and remained silent.
Bei Shuo looked at her in disgust.
âIf it were anyone else, 1 might have believed it at another time, but unfortunately, 1 was the one who cured Brother Mu Ci of the Heartless Flower Poison yesterday. 1 was with him the entire night. Itâs impossible for him to have another woman. I think youâre going to go out for wool and come back shorn this time..â
