“Mom, don’t worry. Mu Wan is injured now. As long as we don’t interfere, she won’t be able to last long!”

Upon hearing her daughter’s words, Chen Huijun was naturally happy. However, at the same time, she was worried.

“I’m just afraid if someone finds out that Mu Wan actually died here…”

“That won’t happen!” Mu Han said confidently, “Mom, think about it. Ever since Second Uncle died, Mu Wan and her brother have been living in our house. It was Dad who generously provided for them to complete their studies. In the past three years, Dad’s kindness to them was obvious to everyone. When Mu Chen went to prison, Dad went everywhere to settle this matter. Now, even if something really happened to Mu Wan, no one will suspect us. After all, we’re the only family that those siblings have in this world. If something happens to them, we’ll be heartbroken. Who will suspect us?”

Upon hearing her daughter’s analysis, all the worries in Chen Huijun’s heart instantly vanished.

Yes, they were the only family of the siblings now, and they cared about them more than anyone else. Who would suspect them?

“Daughter, you’re so attentive!”

Mu Han smiled smugly and took another sip of tea.

“How is that girl now?”

“I went to take a look this morning. She has a fever.”

The moment their eyes met, Chen Huijun instantly understood.

Then, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Both mother and daughter turned around and saw Auntie Guo walking towards them.

“Madam, Miss, we have a visitor.”

The mother and daughter looked at each other. Perhaps it was because they were guilty, their expressions were not too good.

Who would come so early in the morning?

“Who is it?” Chen Huijun asked.

Auntie Guo raised her head and was a little slow to react. She did not know the man outside the door. However, judging from his noble aura, he was definitely not an ordinary person.

Before Auntie Guo could speak, the crisp sound of leather shoes stepping on the ground could be heard from the entrance.

Mu Han, who was sitting on the sofa, stared at the man who was walking in…

Truly, she had never seen such an exquisite looking man before.

That face, that height, and that build simply looked like they were hand-drawn. They didn’t seem real.

How could there be such a perfect man in this world…

“Who are you? Who allowed you to enter?”

Upon seeing the two men barge in without permission, Chen Huijin stood up from the sofa as well.

For some reason, when she saw the man in the lead walk in, she instinctively felt fear. That powerful aura resembled the arrival of an emperor, making everyone bow down to him.

Gu Tingyuan’s cold and narrow eyes swept across the mother and daughter pair. However, he did not see Mu Wan.

“Where’s Mu Wan?”

His cold tone sounded like a question from God.

Chen Huijun composed herself, but she was still fearful.

The man in front of her was like an ice sculpture. There was no warmth to speak of, especially his eyes, which seemed to be able to kill a person’s soul.

“Who… who exactly are you?”

Gu Tingyuan’s eyes were cold as he said, “Gu Tingyuan.”

Gu Tingyuan!?

When they heard these two words, both mother and daughter’s expressions changed to shock!

Gu Tingyuan was the president of Yu Ting Corporation and the only heir of the Gu family!

Why… Did he come here?

At this moment, Chen Huijun finally understood why she felt so pressured when she first saw Gu Tingyuan. She even felt like she was looking at an emperor.
