Chapter 298: Putting on a High Stance When Apologizing

After Mu Anan was carried down, a servant pushed the wheelchair to the sofa.
Jiang Zhen stood up almost instantly. He smiled awkwardly, “Miss Anan.”
Guo Yuehua glanced at Jiang Zhen, clearly dissatisfied with how agitated Jiang Zhen was.
She slowly pulled Jiang Qin to her feet, maintained her wealthy lady’s attitude, and said, “Miss Anan, sorry to disturb you.”
Mu Anan glanced at the three and said calmly, “Don’t just stand there. Sit down.”
As soon as she said that, Guo Yuehua pulled Jiang Qin to sit down.
She completely treated herself as a guest.
Mu Anan lowered her head and tidied her hair.
Jiang Zhen was still standing there, his smile a little stiff, “Miss Anan, I heard you were injured in the fire at Jiang Capital yesterday. Are you alright now?”
Jiang Zhen sounded concerned.
During Momo’s incident, Mu Anan did not reveal her identity and did not have any contact with Jiang Zhen.
However, after revealing her identity, she clearly felt that Jiang Zhen was trying to get close to her.
Mu Anan could sense that Jiang Zhen was suspecting that she was Mu Qing’s daughter.
After hearing what Zong Zhengyu said the previous day about the smart drug that her mother and grandfather had developed, Mu Anan was even more certain that Jiang Zhen was suspicious of her and was anxious to know if she was his daughter.
Mu Anan was very calm at that moment. She said calmly, “It’s nothing serious. I’m fine. Uncle Jiang, please sit down.”
Jiang Zhen smiled and sat at the side.
Mu Anan glanced at Jiang Qin and suddenly said, “I’m fine, but Young Lady Jiang Qin doesn’t seem to be doing well. It seemed like a lot of photos had been taken. Are you alright?”
Mu Anan’s words instantly stabbed a thorn in Jiang Qin’s heart.
When she thought about the embarrassing situation the previous night and the reporters’ cameras, Jiang Qin’s madness, which had been suppressed by Guo Yuehua, was triggered again.
Her expression was ugly, and her eyes were red as she stared at Mu Anan. She wanted to go up and tear her apart!
Guo Yuehua pressed Jiang Qin down to calm her down.
Guo Yuehua looked at Mu Anan with a foul expression and said, “Miss Anan, our family is here to apologize for what happened at the Jiang Capital yesterday!”
Mu Anan looked at Guo Yuehua in the eyes and asked, “Apologize?”
Guo Yuehua said, “Yes, our Xiao Qin has been spoiled by us since she was young, so sometimes she acts willfully and does things out of hand. Today, we specially came to apologize to Miss Anan, hoping that we can bury the hatchet with Yuyuan Estate.”
Although it was an apology and a plea for peace, Guo Yuehua’s sense of dignity as the madam of a wealthy family was constantly present.
Mu Anan could feel that, in Guo Yuehua’s eyes, she was not on the same level as Guo Yuehua.
Naturally, Guo Yuehua had assumed that she was superior to Mu Anan.
Mu Anan had thoroughly investigated the Jiang family over the past few years.
She also found out that Jiang Zhen had been able to push the Jiang Group on the right track all those years, not only because of the mysterious mastermind but also because of Guo Yuehua’s help.
Mu Anan even suspected that it was Guo Yuehua’s idea for Jiang Zhen to get close to her mother!
Mu Anan was furious and resentful at the thought of the couple’s disgusting scam.
Her poor mother, who was proud and intelligent, was defeated by such a disgusting and unpresentable person!
Mu Anan suppressed the hatred in her heart and pretended to be confused, “Mrs. Jiang, I’m getting more confused with what you’re saying. Was Young Lady Jiang Qin the one who set the fire at the Jiang Capital last night?”
Guo Yuehua denied it immediately, “Our Xiao Qin has nothing to do with Jiang Capital’s fire!”
“I was injured in the fire. Since it has nothing to do with Young Lady Jiang Qin, why did you come to apologize to me?”
When Mu Anan asked that, Guo Yuehua’s expression turned ugly.
Jiang Zhen was already nervous, and now he was even tenser. He held his handkerchief and kept wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
However, Guo Yuehua was still very calm. She went along with Mu Anan’s words and said, “Of course, it was not our Xiao Qin who started the fire. It’s just that there was some misunderstanding between our Xiao Qin and Miss Anan, so we came here today to apologize and resolve the misunderstanding.”
“Mrs. Jiang, please tell me what misunderstanding there is between me and Young Lady Jiang Qin.” Mu Anan continued to ask.
Guo Yuehua’s expression stiffened as she re-examined Mu Anan.
She had thought Mu Anan was just a little princess who was spoiled and arrogant in the Yuyuan Estate, but it was obvious that the little princess, who looked soft, was a tough nut to crack.
No wonder her daughter suffered at her hands.
Guo Yuehua maintained her noble smile and said, “Miss Anan, I also hope there is no misunderstanding between you and Xiao Qin. You are of the same age, and you are in the same university and same intern hospital. That’s fate. Oh, there is an even deeper fate.”
As Guo Yuehua spoke, she seemed to have thought of something. She glanced at Jiang Zhen and said, “My husband’s ex-wife’s daughter has the same name as Miss Anan. She’s even the same age.”
Mu Anan clenched her fists tightly.
When she came down, the servant covered her legs with a blanket. Mu Anan’s hands were all under the blanket, so no one noticed when she clenched her fists.
In Mu Anan’s eyes, Guo Yuehua’s mention of her mother was an insult to her mother.
But on the surface, Mu Anan still maintained a calm and indifferent attitude, “Uncle told me before that we have the same name. It’s indeed a coincidence.”
Guo Yuehua observed Mu Anan.
She had brought that up on purpose to observe Mu Anan.
Since Mu Anan’s identity was exposed, Jiang Zhen had always suspected that Mu Anan was Mu Qing’s daughter, but Guo Yuehua and Jiang Qin had the same thoughts.
That bastard did not have such a good life.
The more she looked at Mu Anan, the more she felt that she did not resemble Mu Qing.
Mu Anan’s eyebrows and facial features were gentle. If one were to describe her vividly, she would look like a bun, weak and easy to manipulate.
Mu Qing was silly when in love, but she looked more powerful.
It didn’t seem like they were similar.
Guo Yuehua said, “Miss Anan, Xiao Qin was also at the Jiang Capital yesterday. However, because of an accident, some bad photos were taken when she left the scene. These photos became popular among the media, and they insisted on reporting them.”
Mu Anan listened to Guo Yuehua’s words quietly.
If they were naked photos, she could just say so.
But she had to bear around the bush.
Mu Anan mocked her deep within but didn’t say anything.
Guo Yuehua continued to beat around the bush, “Miss Anan, you know that the Jiang family is a prestigious family. Xiao Qin is the eldest young lady of the Jiang family and has a noble status. If such ugly photos were reported, it would damage Xiao Qin’s reputation.”
“That’s why 1 brought Xiao Qin here today to apologize to Miss Anan. If there was any misunderstanding in the past, I hope it can be resolved today. I also hope that Miss Anan can be magnanimous and not let those photos spread.”
Mu Anan still did not say anything. She just watched as Guo Yuehua sat upright on the sofa.
That was the first time she had seen someone who came to beg for help and apologize with such superiority.
At the same time, Mu Anan finally understood where Jiang Qin’s confidence and arrogance came from.
It turned out that she inherited it from her mother!
Mu Anan lowered her head and sneered.
Arrogant?
Superior?
Then, she would see how Guo Yuehua would continue to be arrogant later!
