Chapter 345: You’re Not Worthy
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In Mu Anan’s heart, the words ‘innocent, kind, and beautiful’ that Jiang Zhen used were completely correct when applied to her mother.
Mu Qing was indeed such a beautiful and kind person.
However, she was too kind and naive. She did not know that the man who had been lying beside her for more than ten years was a wolf for money.
Although angry, Mu Anan had been restraining herself and did not show it on her face.
Mu Anan reminded him, “Since Dad has already decided, let’s hurry up and implement it. Remember to inform the mental hospital first.”
Jiang Zhen nodded. “I’m an old acquaintance of Director Chang’s. I’ve already completed all the procedures and plan to hold a press conference tomorrow morning.”
“Will Sister agree to attend?” Mu Anan asked, seemingly unwittingly.
Jiang Zhen lowered his head and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. “Auntie Yuehua has already spoken to your sister. She will bring your sister to the press conference tomorrow morning to apologize.”
“Then my sister’s emotions…”
“Your auntie will handle it. It’s just an apology. Moreover…” Jiang Zhen paused. “Who would care about a mental patient?”
Mu Anan’s expression was calm initially, but her heart suddenly turned cold when she heard Jiang Zhen’s last sentence.
Who would care about a mental patient?
When Jiang Zhen said this, there was a clear sense of indifference and relief in his tone.
It was as if he had thrown away the burden that he had been carrying on his shoulders.
He threw it without hesitation and quickly.
However, Mu Anan had seen how Jiang Zhen doted on Jiang Qin.
Now that Jiang Qin had been destroyed, she was of no help to him. She had even become a problem for him, so he threw her away as much as he could.
As expected, benefits came first.
Mu Anan could even imagine how Jiang Zhen had sent Jiang Feng overseas when he was in trouble.
Mu Anan did not show much on her face. “That’s good. I wish you all the best tomorrow.”
“Then can you attend tomorrow?” Jiang Zhen asked carefully.
Mu Anan remained silent.
Jiang Zhen said, “Xiao Qin hit you after all. If she publicly apologizes to you and you forgive her, 1 believe the netizens will show mercy to Xiao Qin. Anan, is that okay?”
Jiang Zhen asked nervously.
The Internet was full of videos and insults about Jiang Qin’s rampage. However, Mu Anan, who had been hit, was kept a secret. It was obvious that she didn’t want to make it public.
He made this request but he was also worried that Mu Anan would reject him.
However, Jiang Zhen and Guo Yuehua talked for the entire afternoon.
In the end, Guo Yuehua agreed to let Jiang Qin admit that she was mentally ill. However, she stated that Mu Anan had to attend the press conference tomorrow and accept Jiang Qin’s apology.
Therefore, Jiang Zhen could only come over to ask for Mu Anan’s favor.
Jiang Zhen asked, “Anan, is that okay? When the time comes, you can wear a mask and a hat. 1 will also contact the reporters at the scene to prevent them from taking photos of your face to protect your privacy.”
Mu Anan remained silent in the face of Jiang Zhen’s question.
Jiang Zhen was a little anxious.
He grabbed the handkerchief hesitantly and finally stood up from the sofa. He moved closer to Mu Anan and sat at the seat closest to her.
He said, “I know this is difficult for you. But Anan, 1 know that you are as kind and wonderful as your mother. You just need to stand there and accept Xiao Qin’s apology. Please help Daddy and Sister, okay?”
Mu Anan had been silent all this while, but when she heard Jiang Zhen’s words, she suddenly laughed.
She was so angry that she laughed.
After laughing, she said, “Alright, I agree.”
Jiang Zhen had been trying to convince Mu Anan. He was a little stunned when Mu Anan suddenly agreed so readily.
Mu Anan said, “Didn’t Daddy say that I’m as kind as Mommy? Then I’ll be like Mommy and let Daddy see that I’m your daughter!”
Not only did she inherit her mother’s kindness, but she also inherited your insidiousness, dear father.
Jiang Zhen came back to his senses after about ten seconds. He suddenly laughed and nodded desperately.
He reached out to grab Mu Anan’s hand, but he gave up when he realized that Mu Anan’s hand was under the blanket.
“Anan, thank you. You’re my good daughter. I’m so grateful to God for letting you come back. I’m really… really…”
As he choked with sobs, Jiang Zhen lowered his head and wiped his tears with the handkerchief.
Mu Anan watched silently. When she saw Dr. Gu enter, she merely gave him a look and he walked away.
He didn’t disturb her.
Mu Anan didn’t comfort Jiang Zhen. After he was done crying, she wiped her face and looked up. “Anan, I actually have another matter today.”
“Daddy, please tell me.”
“Remember when I went to look for you and said that your mother had prepared a package for you ten years ago.”
“I remember.”
Mu Anan nodded.
After Jiang Zhen told her about it that day, Mu Anan told the Seventh Master about it.
The Seventh Master had already arranged for the parcel company to send the parcel directly to Yuyuan Estate.
However, Mu Anan stopped him and left the parcel where it was.
Since her mother had hidden the formula for the smart drug in the bank safe and tattooed the password on Mu Anan’s spine, it meant that there would not be anything related to the smart drug in the package.
Therefore, there was no need to worry.
Jiang Zhen said, “I was thinking of opening the package after you move home. Is that okay?”
It was a question but also a condition.
Mu Anan did not agree to move in with Jiang Zhen.
However, his current attitude meant that Mu Anan had to move into the Jiang family’s house before she could open the package.
Mu Anan’s heart was as clear as a mirror but she did not say much on the surface. She just said, “Seventh Master is on a business trip these few days. I want to wait for him to come back first.”
“Is Seventh Master on a business trip?” Jiang Zhen was obviously surprised. “So he won’t be able to attend the press conference tomorrow…”
“Dad, do you think Seventh Master will attend the press conference tomorrow?” Mu Anan asked.
She had concealed her emotions very well. But after hearing Jiang Zhen’s muttering, she could not help but reveal a mocking expression.
What kind of person did Jiang Zhen think the Seventh Master was?
Would he attend any occasion?
It was just a press conference to admit Jiang Qin’s mental illness and a messy press conference for the Jiang family. Did they think Seventh Master will attend?
Was this a slap in Jiang Zhen’s face when he asked this question?
Was he worthy?
Mu Anan’s voice was much colder. “Father, if it weren’t for the Seventh
Master’s business trip, 1 wouldn’t have attended the press conference. He won’t let me because he thought that place is messy.”
Mu Anan’s words were so straightforward that Jiang Zhen was stunned for a few seconds.
After all, ever since Mu Anan admitted that she was Mu Qing’s daughter, she had always treated Jiang Zhen like Mu Qing. She was silly, naive, and obedient.
She would agree to any request and would not say anything harsh.
This sarcastic and direct sentence stunned Jiang Zhen.
For a second, Jiang Zhen looked at his obedient, easy-going, and easy-to-control daughter in front of him and felt a sense of distance..
