Chapter 1016: Males Are More Important Than Females I
Mu Huan’s voice was cut off abruptly. She looked at Mu Ling furiously, feeling cold and unable to say a word.
Before Suyi returned, her parents were as loving as when they first met.
Everything had changed since Suyi returned.
So, why did she come back?
Mu Huan clenched her fists tightly and even after Mu Ling had left, she did not react at all. Her eyes were filled with hatred.
She hated Suyi for using force to gain favor and for stealing the man her mother loved the most.
‘I hate Suyi, I’ll make sure she never live in peace!’
Cough! Cough!
There was a weak coughing sound coming from the bed.
This voice instantly pulled Mu Huan away from her thoughts. She turned and hurried to the bed, with a face full of joy she asked, “Mother, are you awake?”
“Ling… Brother Ling…”
Chen Qingyan opened her eyes partially. Her voice was as weak as a soft breeze. Her eyes darted around but she did not see the person she was expecting. She lowered her eyes slightly and a bitter smile hung on her pale face.
“Huan’er, your father… Didn’t he come to see me?”
Mu Huan trembled. She could not bear to tell her mother that her father had left before she had even woken up.
“Mother… Dad left earlier due to some matters. He will come back to see you soon.”
“Huan’er, you don’t need to comfort me, I know it very well.” Chen Qingyan closed her eyes, her heart was in pain. What she had worried about for so many years had finally happened. “He will not return again.”
Mu Ling was affectionate.
And equally ruthless.
All these years, Mu Ling had always been spoiling her, making her feel like she was in heaven. Similarly, he could also make her fall into hell at any given moment.
To this man, nothing compared to the Mu family!
He took the family more seriously than anything else!
“Mother, you don’t have to think too much about it. Get well soon. He won’t ignore you. If he didn’t care about you, he wouldn’t have taken out the elixir from his private collection to save you.”
Mu Huan’s comforting lit up Chen Qingyan’s eyes for a moment before quickly darkening and filled with pain.
“Huan’er, your maternal grandmother died in the hands of the old master …”
Mu Huan’s heart skipped a beat as she looked at Chen Qingyan in shock.
The events of that year were taboo in everyone’s heart, so no one had talked about the past. As such, this was the first time Mu Huan had heard Chen Qingyan’s talk about her maternal grandmother.
“Logically speaking, I should hate the old master and the Mu family, but I have fallen in love with your father anyway. For him, I am willing to let go of all the hatred, but why… why does your father still not care about me in the end?
“He’s all that I have, he’s my life! How would I live this life without him?”
Chen Qingyan voiced out hoarsely, tears of grief flowing from her eyes and all over her pale face.
Her body was shaking as if there was an abyss of sorrow within and it seemed to take great effort to keep it all from exploding entirely.
“Huan’er, only you can help me, now only you can help me!” Chen Qingyan held Mu Huan’s hand tightly and said distraughtly. “Besides you, there is no one else who can help me.”
Mu Huan bit her lower lip hard, her body was trembling with anger. “Mother, what should I do? How can I help you…”
Chen Qingyan lowered her eyes, a light flashed in her eyes.
“I want you to seduce someone.”
“Mother?” Mu Huan’s eyes widened in disbelief. The hand that Chen Qingyan was holding stiffened. “What did you just say?”
