Chapter 325: Can I Be Capricious?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Mu Anan leaned against the bed, her head tilted as she stared at the bedside.
Her mood carried a deep sense of loneliness and sadness.
She heard the door being pushed open.
She knew who came in.
However, she still maintained her posture of looking out the window.
She didn’t move at all.
It wasn’t until the figure of Seventh Master blocked all of her sights that Mu Anan slowly raised her head and looked at the man in front of her.
She was very calm, but there was too much grievance and sadness hidden in her eyes.
Her tears were about to fall, but she held them back.
“Brother Yu, I’m sorry…”
Her voice was very soft and a little hoarse.
Zong Zhengyu kept silent.
Mu Anan lowered her eyes, “I know that I’ve let you down.”
Seventh Master still did not say a word.
He grabbed the chair beside him and sat down with his legs crossed and his hands on his thighs.
His expression was cold.
It was a kind of pain that kept strangers away.
He said,” You didn’t let me down. It’s yourself you’re sorry for.”
“But if 1 don’t, I’m sorry for my mom.” As Mu Anan spoke, her tears fell uncontrollably.
When they hit the back of her hand, she felt as if she had been hit by something sharp. Her hand trembled in pain.
Mu Anan closed her eyes.
She wanted to control her tears and her emotions.
“Ever since I met Jiang Qin in university, I’ve seen her stand in the crowd as the eldest daughter of the Jiang family and become the crowd’s focus.”
Mu Anan said, “She raised her chin slightly. She’s very arrogant and condescending, but she’s the center of attention.”
Mu Anan kept wiping her tears.
She really didn’t want to cry at all.
But something that stung for too long and hurt too much.
She could not control the pain at all.
Mu Anan wiped her tears for a while. She couldn’t hold them back anymore, so she decided not to care for them.
She raised her head and looked at Zong Zhengyu, “Every time 1 see her being the center of attention, emphasizing that she’s the eldest young lady of the Jiang family, emphasizing how prideful and noble the eldest lady of the top pharmaceutical group in Jianglan City is, I feel resentful!”
“I wish 1 could rush up and skin her alive, eat her flesh, and drink her blood!”
“Why?”
“Seventh Master, tell me why. Why is she allowed to be like this? What gives Jiang Qin the right?”
“The glory of the Jiang family’s pharmaceutical group was built by my mother and grandfather. It’s what my mother and grandfather earned by working day and night in the lab. Why could Jiang Qin and Guo Yuehua trample on my mother and grandfather’s blood and flesh and enjoy being extolled?”
“Why?!”
Mu Anan could no longer control her emotions.
She didn’t want to hold it back either.
The pain, fear, resentment, and hatred hidden in her heart.
She couldn’t hold them in anymore.
“I was always alone at home. Only on weekends did my mother and grandfather have time for me. Even then, it was my mom and grandpa struggling to make time.”
They were very busy.
Very busy.
“Grandpa had a high fever once. He was so aged and had a 39-degree fever, but he insisted on standing in the lab all day just because there was a problem with a new drug in the clinical stage while the time for it to be released had already been set, so he had to deal with it as soon as possible.”
“When my mom got into a car accident, she didn’t go to the hospital immediately. Instead, she rushed to the laboratory covered in blood.”
Her grandpa and mom had never told Mu Anan about this.
However, Mu Anan had been meticulous since she was young and knew how to observe. She could contact one of her brothers in the laboratory and secretly bring her to the laboratory to visit her grandfather and mother.
But Mu Anan was so young at that time that she could not learn to be sensible.
She had grown and was sensible now. There was no more chance.
Her mother and grandfather were already buried underground. She did not even have the chance to cherish them.
“I don’t care who is more noble, nor anyone better than me. What 1 really care about is how could the Jiang family take advantage of my mother and grandfather’s hard work to show how noble they are!”
The more Guo Yuehua acted noble in front of Mu Anan, the more indignant Mu Anan felt!
And the more she wanted to let Guo Yuehua, Jiang Qin, Jiang Zhen, and Jiang Feng, who had already gone abroad…
Each of them.
Returning to their original form one by one!
Zong Zhengyu listened to Mu Anan’s indignant accusation in silence.
His heart ached.
He felt hurt.
It was the hurt that he wanted to destroy the Jiang family.
Although the girl loved to act and act pitifully to get pampered, when she was really in pain and sad, she would hide by herself.
At this moment, Seventh Master really wanted to hug the injured and trembling girl in his arms.
But before he reached out, Zong Zhengyu restrained himself.
He watched as the girl restrained herself after a flurry of emotions.
She was too sensible.
This kind of maturity was a kind of compensation for her mother and grandfather’s worry when she was young.
Therefore, she knew better than anyone else how to restrain herself and know the bottoms.
Mu Anan took a deep breath and wiped the tears off her face.
Seventh Master moved his stiffened hand.
In the end, he reached out and took a tissue for Mu Anan.
Mu Anan was going to take it subconsciously, but Seventh Master dodged her. He pinched Mu Anan’s chin and wiped the tears off her face.
“My nose is red from the crying.”
Mu Anan subconsciously sniffed. Her nose was stuffed up.
Zong Zhengyu pinched her nose with a tissue.
Mu Anan sniffed and then snorted obediently.
Zong Zhengyu helped her wipe her snot and threw the ball of paper into the trash can.
He took another wet tissue and wiped Mu Anan’s face.
Mu Anan was very obedient the entire time.
It was just like when she had just arrived at the Yuyuan Estate, she had cried a lot.
Once she started crying, it would be endless.
Every time, Seventh Master would not speak or hug her. He would just sit there and watch her cry.
When she stopped crying, he would wipe her tears and dry her nose.
Mu Anan was obedient and stared at him with her red eyes.
She wondered why such a man could do such a thing for her.
At that time, she felt that this man had a high status. Everything he did was elegant and pure, noble and holy.
Some people were born incompatible with the ordinary people of this world.
He stood over there, dazzling, brilliant, but distant as a galaxy.
Yet, he appeared in front of her just like that.
He became her whole world.
Mu Anan said, “Brother Yu, I know that you’ve always doted on me and taken care of me all these years. You’re angry because I hurt myself.”
“So, can I be capricious because of your favor? Can 1… make a request based on your adoring me?”
“You want me not to interfere in the Jiang family’s matters?” Zong Zhengyu’s voice was cold.
Mu Anan nodded.
Zong Zhengyu’s expression remained cold. He didn’t respond.
Mu Anan said, “Everything in the Jiang family now belonged to my mother. Guo Yuehua stole my mother’s position and put a layer of noble light on herself.. I’m going to shatter every one of these glories she thinks she’s so proud of!”
