Mu Chenyan looked at the man in the picture on the tombstone with tears welling up in her eyes.
She sat down and took out the tributes she bought at the entrance of the cemetery from her backpack. She said in a low voice, "Father, I'm here to see you …"
Mu Chenyan recalled that her mother treated her very well when she was young. She was a gentle and generous woman who had cultivated Mu Chenyan's bright and approachable personality.
However, Mu Feng was very strict and harsh to her.
Her brother would be encouraged if he failed his exams. "Don't worry, you'll do better next time …"
She scored 95 points in her mathematics exam but was criticized by her father. "You could have scored 100 points but you were careless …"
Mu Chenwu had many friends to accompany him on his birthday. A five-layer birthday cake and birthday gifts from various aristocratic families filled Mu Chenwu's room.
However, her father always seemed to forget that there was a young lady in the Mu Family who also had a birthday …
It was only after she grew up that she understood that her father didn't like her. It wasn't because she didn't perform well enough. There seemed to be an indescribable estrangement between her and her father, causing the intimate father-daughter relationship to be somewhat cold!
When Yuan Xuan went abroad to pursue his postgraduate studies in high school, Mu Chenyan begged her father to let her go abroad to pursue her studies so that she could follow the man she loved.
That was the only time Mu Feng readily agreed to her request.
After thinking about it, Mu Feng probably realized that his daughter would be of great help to the Mu Family in the future if she could climb up the tree that was Yuan Xuan.
Even so, when Mu Chenyan heard from the prison that her parents had a car accident and that her family had been destroyed, she still cried uncontrollably.
She believed in the saying, "There is still a place for one's parents in life, but there is only a place to return to when one's parents are gone."
Without the Mu Family, she would be alone from now on.
Moreover, she would have to face Yuan Xuan, the man who she once madly followed and loved deeply but caused her family to be destroyed. Mu Chenyan's heart twitched in pain.
…
Everything that happened in the Mu Family since she was young flashed in her mind like a movie. The happy and painful past became a thing of the past with her father's passing and her mother's coma …
Mu Chenyan did not know how long she stayed in front of the tombstone.
When the sky turned dark, the quiet cemetery fell into an ethereal silence except for the sound of birds flapping their wings.
She felt a bone-chilling cold in the surroundings and realized that she had been sitting in the cemetery for too long.
When he got up, his legs were already numb. His stomach, which hadn't eaten since noon, was growling in protest!
Mu Chenyan massaged her thighs, sorted out her emotions, and walked out of the cemetery.
Looking at the empty surroundings, there was not even the shadow of a car to be seen. Other than the two old men guarding the cemetery who were whispering to each other, he thought of the driver's words and felt a little vexed.
"As expected, it's impossible to hail a cab!"
Mu Chenyan mumbled and tightened the dark green fur coat on her body. Her pale little face shrunk into the collar of the coat, revealing only a pair of big, lively eyes.
She swung her backpack and strolled along the boardwalk beside the lake.
It seemed that she wouldn't be able to make it back for dinner. Would that man think of calling her when he didn't see her when he got home?
Thinking of the phone that Yuan Xuan had given her, she took it out of her bag and gestured at the buttons a few times, but she still couldn't make up her mind to let him pick her up.
She struggled for a while and didn't notice that on the other side of the road, in the black Rolls-Royce, a man was staring at her with a gloomy face!
"Third Young Master, do you want to ask Little Mistress to get in the car?"
Yan Jun felt that his CEO was a little strange. He had obviously been here for the whole afternoon, but he refused to show up. The car was hiding in the bushes, and he was obviously driving a Rolls-Royce, but he was in a daze for the whole afternoon as an armored car …
Two people, one was absent-mindedly strolling along the road, and the other was silent in the car.
