It dawned on Wu Ze that Mu Chenyan wanted to break free from Yuan Xuan’s control. If she found Mu Chenwu, she would at least still have someone from the Mu Family to rely on!
However, Mu Chenwu had gone missing for quite a long time, and the authorities had no news or trace of him at all.
Mu Chenyan might not know that the Yuan Family was also looking for Mu Chenwu.
What had gone on between the Yuan Family and the Mu Family was probably hard for outsiders to grasp. Yuan Xuan’s thoughts were like an endless abyss, if he did not disclose them, no one would be able to read him.
“I suppose finding Mu Chenwu is just one of the reasons?” Wu Ze watched Mu Chenyan and asked plainly.
“Yes. It seems like I can’t hide anything from Brother.” Mu Chenyan replied while smiling.
“Back then, Shu Qinger’s case was left unresolved, and there were many suspicious circumstances surrounding the case. I want to get in touch with the police, and if possible, I’d also like to slowly look into the case in secret…”
Mu Chenyan paused for a moment. Her eyes, which were as dark as a pair of onyxes, were looking out into the distance through the window. “I’m a victim in this case too. Don’t I have the right to vindicate myself? “And the best way to vindicate yourself is none other than by finding the real murderer…”
Wu Ze was stunned as he observed Mu Chenyan’s dim and indifferent expression.
The long-lasting pain had caused this woman’s face, which was naturally pretty, to have a faint sorrow about it. Her flickering eyes no longer carried the animated aura it did when she was young…
He thought about it and understood why she was now for his help instead of Yuan Xuan.
It was not just due to the fact that Wu Huai was his elder cousin brother, but rather, it was because Yuan Xuan did not give Mu Chenyan a sense of security, such that she could not recklessly trust him!
All these years, Yuan Xuan had never told anyone anything about his plans.
Even Wu Ze and Shao Yibai might not fully comprehend what he was formulating. What more Mu Chenyan?
Without a sense of security, even though the two shared the same bed and had zero distance between them, she would still not dare go to Yuan Xuan. Not to mention, he had hurt her before…
Wu Ze suddenly felt sorry for this woman. To her, Yuan Xuan was like a poisonous drink that quenched her thirst and was the antidote to her Gu poison! (TN: a venomous poison obtained from the last insect standing among many that were sealed together in a container; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gu_(poison))
She had loved him for so many years and pursued him for a long time, even obtaining her wish of marrying him in the end. However, her heart was moving further and further away from him…
“Chenyan, don’t worry. I’ll be sure to help you settle this matter. “However, I’d like to remind you that although Wu Huai is a decent guy, his temper is very bad. If you’re to work with him in the future, you might have to endure this side of him.”
As Wu Ze commented on his elder cousin brother, a faint smile appeared on his face. He was clearly aware that helping her might not please Yuan Xuan, but he still wanted to help her.
“I’m not scared. As long as he agrees, I believe I’ll be able to do well!” Mu Chenyan let out a long sigh of relief. The outcome was better than what she had expected.
With Wu Ze willing to help her, she was feeling very happy.
“Chenyan, I’ve got a question, and I’m wondering if you can give me a truthful answer.”
Mu Chenyan had never seen Wu Ze speak so cautiously. The eloquence of this well-known fork-tongued lawyer was well-known throughout the country!
“Big Brother Wu, just say whatever that’s on your mind…”
“If you succeed in finding Mu Chenwu, what do you plan to do after that? Do you… Do you plan to leave the Yuan Family?”
Wu Ze held his breath as he spoke.
He hoped that she would reply in the negative and that he would not be wronging his friend.
However, he was also vaguely hoping that she would say yes…
Mu Chenyan had a family feud with Yuan Xuan. Even if no one talked about it, it did not mean that this toxic nuance did not exist!
