Nonetheless, Hai Rong did not value fame and fortune and hated those who coveted those.
“Han Feng, you may leave. Many people are attending the old master’s birthday feast. We must ensure that nothing goes wrong at such times.”
“Yes, Young Master.”
Han Feng clenched his fists respectfully and walked out of the hall with a limping foot.
It did not take long for Mu Huan to walk in from the door after Han Feng left. She was very cold and proud while facing her father, unlike the kind and approachable girl in front of Hai Rong.
“I’ve already gone to Master. He will leave in the next few days.” Mu Huan’s face was dark. “But I think Master may already doubt what you and Mother have said.”
Mu Ling’s heart suddenly trembled. He stood up instantly. “What did you just say? Has Hai Rong started to doubt us?”
“Yes.” Mu Huan slightly nodded. “Father, you should tell Master the truth after Grandfather’s birthday. I think he may know about it sooner or later.”
Mu Ling was holding his fist tightly. “No, you can’t let him know. Otherwise, everything will be ruined!”
“Father!” Mu Huan’s face was dark. “Do you think that the ten years that I have spent with Master was not as valuable as the few months that you and Suyi spent together? If you do this, it will make me think that Suyi was the reason for what I have achieved so far! I obviously rely on my own strength, what is Suyi…”
Slap!
Mu Ling was angry and slapped Mu Huan’s face fiercely.
Mu Huan’s entire body froze. She raised her head in disbelief. She was shocked and very disappointed.
Father had never touched her since she was a child. Now, he was hitting her for that woman!
In his heart, was that woman more important than his daughter?
“Huan’er.” Mu Ling looked at Mu Huan’s cold face. He felt guilty. “I didn’t mean to hit you. Even if Suyi has done something wrong, she is still my wife. You should not talk about your elders like that.”
He could blame Suyi.
However, Huan’er was young. The young ones should respect the elders!
Mu Huan smiled sarcastically. “Father, it was Mother who looked after you when you were sick. Nan Suyi ran away with another person and disappeared for a month. Later, it was Mother who had protected you when you were being hunted. However, Nan Suyi had already fled and left you two behind. Mother has done so much for you and Nan Suyi has done nothing, Why do you still prefer Nan Suyi more?”
“Huan’er, you weren’t like this before. Why did you become so aggressive after leaving the Mu family only for a few years?”
Seeing that his well-behaved daughter no longer existed, Mu Ling’s heart slightly sank. He felt the pain in his heart.
He immediately regretted it after slapping her. Huan’er was still his daughter after all.
She was being protected and raised well since young. She had never been wronged once!
But he… hit her!
Mu Huan sneered. “I just can’t stand to see what you have done to Mother! You love Mother because she was more obedient than Nan Suyi. Mother allowed you to marry more wives and did not complain about anything. You are still not satisfied after having Mother. You have even married Tan Shuangshuang and brought her into the Mu family. Father, how can you make me respect you?
“If you want me to respect you, it’s easy. Just drive Tan Shuangshuang out and announce to the world that Nan Suyi is no longer your wife. You can say that she has a relationship with another man!”
