Chapter 255: What’s the Motive?
Chapter 255: What’s the Motive?
Of course, Mu Anhan also had to think from the big picture.
In this life, she wanted Gu Xiaozhan to live well.
She also wanted the brothers of the Mu Family to live safely and healthily.
Especially with the upcoming oil war, her elder brother still depended on Gu Xiaozhan!
Although Gu Xiaozhan was a favored child of heaven, no one could reach his heights, he still had his weaknesses.
Mu Anhan knew that she was his Achilles’ heel.
Therefore, she needed to plan carefully and couldn’t allow him the slightest mistake, so that under his strategic leadership, everyone around her could have a bright and healthy future.
Gu Xiaozhan must have his own motives, but what was it she wanted?
Since she didn’t show her intentions, he would just watch how it unfolded.
After all, the little fox’s hidden tail wouldn’t stay hidden for long, it would eventually show.
Even between spouses, saying everything clearly takes away the fun.
Since it was a game of wits and courage, then let the game begin!
Gu Xiaozhan merely gave a profound smile and continued his work.
Seeing him focused on the documents, Mu Anhan prepared to slip out of the office.
But as soon as her cat-like light steps took a step, he called out to her: "Where are you going?"
"I’m going to see Third Brother." Mu Anhan needed to console Mu Laosan!
Gu Xiaozhan frowned in displeasure: "For talking back to me like that earlier, if he wasn’t your third brother, I’d have thrown him into the crocodile pool already."
Mu Anhan giggled: "If he wasn’t my third brother, would he come to you over Su Qing’s matter? The causal relationship wouldn’t exist, so he wouldn’t be thrown into the crocodile pool either."
"I can throw him into the crocodile pool for no reason at all." Gu Xiaozhan’s face was full of displeasure.
This man obviously didn’t want Mu Anhan to leave, yet he spoke so unreasonably!
Mu Anhan gave him a way out, running up to him, "Honey, I’ll apologize to you on behalf of Third Brother, okay?"
Gu Xiaozhan snorted lightly; was an apology what he needed?
Mu Anhan wondered why this man was so unpredictable today, what did she do to upset him?
While she was reflecting, Gu Xiaozhan’s phone rang.
When he saw it was Huo Yiwen calling, he narrowed his eyes, but the invisible killing edge remained.
Mu Anhan knew her mother-in-law didn’t like her, but actually sending an assassin to deal with her was a bit much.
She also wanted to hear what Huo Yiwen had to say.
Gu Xiaozhan answered the call and heard Huo Yiwen speaking: "Xiao Zhan, it’s my fault for misjudging people, Su Qing went behind my back..."
She sighed, "He dared to do something to harm Han Er behind my back! It really breaks my heart!"
Mu Anhan didn’t expect that before Lie Huo could capture Su Qing, Huo Yiwen’s call would come first.
Obviously, Su Qing had become Huo Yiwen’s discarded pawn.
She would never believe that Su Qing dared to hire an assassin to deal with Mu Anhan on his own!
What’s the reason? What’s his motive for murder?
But since Huo Yiwen wanted to put on a play, Mu Anhan decided to play along!
She wanted to see who would slip up first in the end!
Mu Anhan winked at Gu Xiaozhan, signaling him not to get angry or expose Huo Yiwen’s trickery!
However, Gu Xiaozhan acted as if he didn’t see, and coldly said: "If he knows Mu Anhan is my woman and still dares to act recklessly, then let him face death as his punishment!"
