Chapter 527: Chapter 527: Mu Family’s Female Heir
Miss Gu actually ran away!
She really ran away!
And she definitely had a plan!
Earlier, when he received Director Huang’s call, he followed the gentleman’s instructions and said that no matter what Miss Gu did, just go along with it.
So, Miss Gu’s plan started with her applying to teach in the countryside.
It was actually just a smokescreen to make them believe she really went to Jiyun Province for teaching, rather than suddenly disappearing midway.
Lure the tiger away from its lair!
Looking at the delivery address on Taobao, Li Mu had to admit, Miss Gu’s trick of luring the tiger away from its lair was really clever.
No wonder the gentleman’s face looked so grim.
Seeing the fine beads of sweat forming on the gentleman’s forehead, Li Mu’s heart tightened further.
"Sir, your injury."
"Immediately have Muse investigate, I want to know the result in two hours!"
Li Mu nodded quickly and immediately called Muse.
Just at this moment, the doorbell rang.
Thinking the family doctor had arrived, Li Mu let out a sigh of relief.
——
Mu Family’s old house.
After leaving the company, Mu Haiyun went straight back to the Mu Family’s old house.
Mu Qinghan, the elder grandfather of the Mu Family, was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper. When he saw his eldest granddaughter return, he slightly raised an eyebrow and put down the newspaper in his hand.
"Haiyun, did you have Song Qiang follow Bai Chenyao?"
Though the tone was inquisitive, Mu Qinghan’s expression was stern, clearly disapproving of Mu Haiyun’s actions.
Mu Haiyun smiled faintly, her face showing not a trace of panic, even maintaining a composed elegance.
"Grandpa, I did indeed have my cousin follow Bai Chenyao, and not just once but twice, to let Bai Chenyao know he has a marriage arrangement with our Mu Family."
Mu Qinghan’s eyebrows furrowed, his expression becoming even more severe.
"Who told you there is a marriage arrangement between the Bai Family and the Mu Family?"
There was a flicker in Mu Haiyun’s eyes, but she quickly masked it with an elegant and poised smile, appearing dignified and gentle as she looked at Mu Qinghan.
"Grandpa, no matter who told me, I believe that since the marriage concerns me, I have the right to know."
Mu Qinghan’s gaze suddenly became extremely sharp.
"Who told you?"
Mu Haiyun was slightly stunned, not expecting her grandfather to be so serious.
She didn’t even answer Mu Qinghan’s question but instead countered him.
"Grandpa, am I not allowed to know about this matter?"
An anger flashed across Mu Qinghan’s eyes, but it disappeared quickly, unnoticed by Mu Haiyun.
"Haiyun, you still haven’t answered my question!"
Noticing her grandfather’s insistence, a flash of determination appeared in Mu Haiyun’s eyes.
Even though she is the chosen heir of the Mu Family now, her grandfather does have grandsons, and he chose her as the heir based on her abilities.
She is well aware that if she displeased her grandfather, her position as the heir might be instantly retracted.
Upon thinking of this, Mu Haiyun slightly lowered her eyelids, concealing the emotions in her eyes.
"Grandpa, grandma told me about this affair."
Mu Qinghan’s face turned extremely unpleasant.
However, he didn’t say anything further, shifting his gaze away from Mu Haiyun’s face, and slowly resumed reading the newspaper.
Grandma Mu came down from the second-floor staircase and, upon seeing her granddaughter, smiled kindly and affectionately.
"Haiyun is back."
Seeing her grandma, Mu Haiyun quickly lifted her head, her smile growing even more tender.
"Grandma."
Quickly walking forward, she supported Grandma Mu by hand and helped her down, sitting next to Mu Qinghan on the sofa.
