Originally, Mu Ling had wanted to avenge Mu Xi in a fit of anger. However, Chen Qingyan had stopped him because of Nan Xian.
Did Mu Xi deserve the suffering? Who was Chen Qingyan's son? Nan Xian or Mu Xi?
Chen Qingyan knew why Mu Huan was infuriated. She glanced at Mu Huan helplessly and shook her head. Her own daughter was too impulsive and was lacking scheming skills.
Mu Ling knew that Nan Xian would never let go of Feng Ruqing. Hence, he could not kill her. Moreover, the Mu family needed Nan Xian. Mu Ling must not mess with Nan Xian.
Hence, Chen Qingyan could not help but pretend to be generous. By doing this, not only would Mu Ling feel bad for Mu Xi, he would hate Nan Xian's lover. It would do Chen Qingyan good and not harm.
"Why aren't you letting us in?" Just as Chen Qingyan lost in thought, Mu Ling's furious voice spoke. She quickly regained her senses.
There were two guards guarding the chief manor's gate with cold and stern faces.
