Chapter 532: Chapter 532: The Deep and Calculating Bai Chenyao
"Dad knows you’ve been feeling guilty about Little Zi and her mother all these years, but Little Zi is already dead, it’s all in the past. Dad doesn’t want to say more. Now that there’s news of Tian Tian, if you truly want to make amends, start planning early!"
Fisting his hands tightly, a twisted expression flashed across Mu Yi’s face, and after a long moment, he nodded heavily.
"Dad, I understand!"
With clenched fists, Mu Yi’s mind flashed back to the scenes of when he first met and got to know Little Zi, then to all the misunderstandings between them, finally to her leaving silently, reappearing before him with a frail body, and then closing her eyes in front of him.
Thinking of the mocking smile at the corner of Little Zi’s mouth when she left, Mu Yi felt his heart being stabbed sharply with a dagger, bleeding profusely, yet he couldn’t find a way to heal.
Little Zi!
Little Zi!
Mu Yi’s eyes were bloodshot, carrying a hint of ferocious horror, but in the instant of opening the study door, he hid all his emotions, once again becoming the cold, unsmiling President Mu.
——
Jinxin Courtyard.
Bai Chenyao sat in the chair behind the desk, his handsome and cold face looked grim and intimidating, with his eyes like a layer of frost, chilling and especially penetrating.
Li Mu came in from outside, his expressionless face showing a slightly disheveled demeanor.
"Sir."
"Still no news?"
Feeling guilty inside, Li Mu’s face remained expressionless, but cold sweat was trickling down his back.
"Yes!"
Before Bai Chenyao could speak, Li Mu quickly added.
"However, Sir, during our investigation, we discovered that there are two other groups also looking for Miss Gu’s whereabouts."
Noticing the icy glare shot by Bai Chenyao, Li Mu quickly added.
"They’re all from the Mu Family, one group belongs to the old master of the Mu Family, and the other group to Mu Haiyun, the Mu Family’s female heir, or to be precise, also belongs to the old lady of the Mu Family."
Li Mu originally intended to supplement with the Mu Family’s background information, but upon seeing Bai Chenyao’s chilling expression, he decisively gave up.
Who was Bai Chenyao? Even though the Mu Family had been quiet for years, not as grand as before, the old man of the Mu Family was still there.
So there was really no need to add any more.
Bai Chenyao, who had been sitting upright, suddenly leaned back, narrowed his eyes, and his icy sharp gaze suddenly fixed on Li Mu.
"When is Zhang Haiyang’s wedding set?"
Li Mu was slightly stunned but quickly regained his composure.
"Sir, Zhang Haiyang’s wedding with Dai Ke’er is set for the third day of next month, twenty days from now."
Bai Chenyao squinted his eyes again, looking inside, and suddenly curled his lips, giving a silent smile.
His fingers lightly caressed the desk surface, his long eyelashes suddenly drooped down, covering his emotions, but the chill in the study room did not diminish in the slightest.
For quite a while, there was no conversation, as if he was contemplating something.
The study was extraordinarily quiet, and Li Mu felt he could even hear his own heartbeat.
By the time the cold sweat on his back soaked through his clothes and his complexion started to turn pale, he finally saw the Sir, who had been contemplating with lowered brow, raise his head.
With a smile curling his lips, his dark eyes harbored endless obscurity, unfathomable. His handsome and cold face became particularly vivid and attractive at this moment.
"Spread the news that Zhang Haiyang is getting married on the third of next month, and as the eldest young master of the Mu Family, make sure everyone knows!"
"As for the news that Gu Tiantian is the Second Miss of the Mu Family, if anyone deliberately smears her, retaliate ten times over!"
A hint of astonishment flashed in Li Mu’s eyes, but he quickly nodded.
