Mu Chenyan was not stopped by anyone when she stepped out of the door.
She felt that she was overthinking things. Yuan Xuan would not put her under house arrest after all.
This was a wealthy area. Drivers of luxury cars were everywhere. Taxis would not be so stupid as to come here to ask for business.
Therefore, Mu Chenyan walked a long distance before she barely managed to hail a cab.
She got into the car. The person in a black car not far away quickly stepped on the accelerator and followed her.
…
The towering old trees on both sides of the road blocked the entire road. The car moved forward on the gloomy mountain road. The late autumn mountain breeze brought with it a slight chill. Mu Chenyan wrapped the woolen coat tightly around her body and stared blankly at the canvas shoes on her feet.
The driver saw that she was young and quiet. Her lonely big eyes were filled with an indescribable melancholy. She was so beautiful that he could not help but want to chat with her.
"Miss, aren't you a local?"
"Yes."
"You don't look very old. Do you live nearby?"
"Yes."
Ever since Chenyan was released from prison, her personality had changed a lot. She used to be talkative and cheerful. Whether it was in the circle of socialites or in front of ordinary people, she was still very approachable.
However, her personality had become much colder now. It was difficult for her to be friendly even with people she was familiar with, let alone people she did not know.
The previous record was that she did not say a word for more than three months in prison …
She was already a cold woman. Coupled with her indifferent personality, her vigilance and alienation, the driver saw that he could not get a word in. He did not say anything else.
It was almost noon when she bought some things at the memorial supplies store.
She closed her eyes slightly until the taxi driver told her that they had arrived at the North Hill Cemetery.
Her father, Mu Feng, was buried here.
Mu Chenyan paid the fare and was about to leave with her backpack. The driver looked at her and could not help but kindly remind her, "Little beauty, this area is sparsely populated and it's a cemetery. You have to be careful when you're alone."
Mu Chenyan looked around. As expected, the cemetery was located in a remote area. Moreover, it was not the weekend. There were very few people at the memorial. The mottled shadows of the trees on the quiet plank road were a little eerie and scary.
Mu Chenyan nodded. "Thank you, master."
When the living became ruthless, they were even more terrifying than the dead!
She had experienced the brutal attacks of the living and licked her wounds alone after being injured. She crawled forward bit by bit in torment. Why would she be afraid of the dead lying on the ground?
"Do you want me to wait for you here? It won't be easy for you to hail a cab when you go back. I'll wait outside. At least you'll know that there's a living creature around, so you won't be afraid!"
The driver was worried that the young lady didn't understand what he meant, so he said sincerely!
Mu Chenyan sighed, and her dark eyes became misty. She said in a low voice, "There's no need. I want to stay with my father for a while longer. You can go back first."
Seeing that she seemed to be in extreme pain, the driver did not say anything more. He turned the steering wheel and left!
When the man in the black car behind saw Mu Chenyan entering the low shrubs beside the cemetery, he picked up his phone and dialed a number.
"Third Young Master, Young Madam has entered the North Mountain Cemetery!"
…
Less than a year after he was imprisoned, the Mu family fell into a financial crisis. There was even a scandal of Mu Feng taking advantage of his position to sell arms when he was in the army …
When the Mu family was in trouble, they thought that the Yuan family would remember their old relationship. Moreover, they were now in-laws, so they could reach out and help the Mu family.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Xuan bought the Mu family's shares and submitted a report to the prosecutor's office, saying that the Mu family had bribed a finance official who had already been removed from his position during a bidding event.
This report was the straw that broke the camel's back. Mu Feng was attacked from all sides. He sold his family's assets and wanted to escape overnight, but unexpectedly, he got into a car accident on the highway out of the city …
His mother, Yan Mei, was in a moderate coma and was kept alive by a ventilator in the hospital's intensive care unit.
Mu Feng was buried here!
There was no news of his brother, Mu Chenwu, since then. It was as if he had vanished from the face of the earth.
