Mu Anan’s thoughts were in a mess. Before she could find the reasons, the Seventh Master had already stepped forward and picked her up.
Mu Anan’s body was very stiff.
A pair of almond-shaped eyes looked at Zong Zhengyu with restraint.
The Seventh Master did not look at Mu Anan. He placed her on the bed and covered her with the blanket.
“Don’t keep standing since you’re injured,” said the Seventh Master.
Mu Anan didn’t say anything. She was still very nervous.
Her thoughts were still on the scene of her conversation with Zhong Ting, which was interrupted by Zong Zhengyu.
While she was nervous, she was also a little confused as she looked at the Seventh Master’s current state.
She thought that her silence would force the Seventh Master to question her or raise doubts, but Zong Zhengyu looked indifferent.
He didn’t even mention it.
“I’m going to C City now,” said Zong Zhengyu, pinching Mu An ‘an’s earlobe. “About three days. Be good these few days, understand?”
Mu Anan nodded mechanically.
Zong Zhengyu didn’t say anything more and turned around to leave.
Mu Anan subconsciously wanted to call out to stop him, but she could not make a sound.
If she stopped him, what could she say?
He didn’t even mention anything. Was she going to walk right into the trap?
But why didn’t Seventh Master mention it?
Did he know something, so he didn’t want to talk about it?
While Mu Anan’s thoughts were a mess and countless questions popped up, Zong Zhengyu, who was walking halfway, suddenly stopped and turned around. He looked at Mu Anan.
He said, “If you don’t want to use the supplementary cards, 1’11 get Luo Sen to transfer you a sum of money.”
“All?” Mu Anan’s tone was very light and her expression was a little dazed.
Zong Zhengyu didn’t say anything more. He left the room.
Mu Anan did not react until three minutes after the Seventh Master left the room.
Her thoughts were still in a mess.
It was like a ball of yarn that had been knotted. No matter how hard she pulled, she could not get it through.
She only received a very direct message: When the Seventh Master heard the word ‘money’ from her, he was worried that she did not have enough money, so he sent her a sum of money.
Mu Anan had many cards in her hands, all of which were Zong Zhengyu’s supplementary cards.
Mu Anan did not know the exact amount of money that Seventh Master had transferred to her personal bank account.
However, Mu Anan had never been short of money for Zhong Ting’s matter.
After a long time, Mu Anan seemed to have sorted out her thoughts. She lowered her head and smiled.
Her heart felt warm.
Mu Anan did not know whether it was because she had been too tired these few days or because she was sick, but she fell asleep unknowingly after lying in bed for a while.
She had a sweet dream.
In her dream, she returned to her childhood with her mother and grandfather.
After that, the Seventh Master joined in and held her waist. He naturally sat at the same table as her mother and grandfather.
The scene was so beautiful that Mu Anan could not help but reminisce about it for a long time after she opened her eyes.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, the orange sunset dyed half the sky. The orange light shone in and scattered on the ground, making it look like stars.
It was beautiful and artistic.
Mu Anan’s thoughts were still in that dream.
That sweet and warm feeling had been stuck in her heart, flowing slowly like a hot spring.
It was not until the servant knocked on the door and reported that Jiang Zhen wanted to see her in the living room downstairs that she came back to her senses reluctantly.
Mu Anan was pretty sure why Jiang Zhen had come to look for her.
She just didn’t expect him to be so urgent.
She estimated that Jiang Zhen would come looking for her at least tomorrow morning.
It seemed that he was anxious.
Mu Anan asked the servants to leave first. She grabbed her walking stick, washed up, and changed her clothes.
Although her right leg was in a cast and it was troublesome to do things, Mu Anan still took care of her own daily life.
When Mu Anan went downstairs, she saw Jiang Zhen sitting alone in the living room.
He looked very nervous, wiping his sweat with a handkerchief several times.
After he wiped his sweat with the handkerchief, he pinched it hard because he was nervous.
Mu Anan’s expression was especially cold when she was not facing Jiang Zhen.
However, when Jiang Zhen turned around and saw Mu Anan, he immediately stood up from the sofa. The cold expression on Mu Anan’s face immediately disappeared. She turned into a gentle little bunny.
She called out, “Daddy.”
Jiang Zhen was very uneasy. “An… Anan.”
After saying that, Jiang Zhen looked around, obviously looking for the seventh master.
Before Mu Anan took her afternoon nap, the Seventh Master had already left for his business trip.
Mu Anan was still in her wheelchair. She moved her wheelchair closer to Jiang Zhen and asked, “Daddy, why are you here all of a sudden? Is it because of Sister?”
Mu Anan got straight to the point.
Usually, Mu Anan could still play the father-daughter game with Jiang Zhen at this time.
But she was too lazy to act.
Jiang Zhen had a refined image outside, but Mu Anan saw him as selfish and cowardly.
“Dad, don’t just stand there. Sit down first.”
Jiang Zhen seemed to have come back to his senses after Mu Anan said this.
“Okay,” he replied and sat back down on the sofa. He looked around and finally shifted his gaze to Mu Anan.
Jiang Zhen said, “Anan, it’s like this. Auntie Yuehua and 1 have discussed about your sister’s matter. We’ve made a decision.”
“What decision?” Mu Anan asked.
Jiang Zhen didn’t reply immediately. Instead, he used a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his forehead.
After about ten seconds, he said, “We’ve decided to follow your idea!”
Mu Anan raised her eyebrows without batting an eyelid.
She had already predicted this decision.
There were only two paths in front of Jiang Qin.
She could plead guilty and go to jail.
The board of directors of the Jiang Medical Group would still attack Jiang Zhen. But just as Guo Yuehua had said, there was someone behind Jiang Zhen.
The person who could impersonate the Seventh Master in Jianglan City for so many years must have some power. He also wanted the smart drug plan that Mu Qing had developed back then. Naturally, he would protect Jiang Zhen.
However, it was still a pile of trouble.
The second option was what Mu Anan had said. Jiang Qin had to admit that she was mentally ill.
Mu Anan pretended to hesitate and said, “Dad, there are some drawbacks to this method. Have you really decided?
After all, her sister was such a proud person. Wouldn’t it be a blow to her self-esteem if she admitted that she was mentally ill in public and live-streamed her admission to the mental hospital?”
“It’s better than letting her go to jail and letting the group…” Jiang Zhen said smoothly, but he stopped himself in time and changed his words. “After all, she made a mistake and should have been punished. But Anan, you are as kind as your mother. Not only did you not pursue the matter, but you also thought of such a good solution for your sister. Dad… Dad…”
As Jiang Zhen spoke, he started to sob.
He covered his eyes with the handkerchief that he used to wipe his sweat. When Mu Anan saw that the handkerchief was wet, she did not know if it was Jiang Zhen’s sweat or tears.
“Anan, I’ll think of your mother when I look at you. You look so much like your mother,” said Jiang Zhen, “Both of you are innocent, kind, and beautiful.”
Mu Anan smiled.
However, her hands under the blanket were clenched into fists.
She grabbed it very hard..
