Chapter 475 - 475: Unresolved Grudge

It made her feel like she had nowhere to hide.

The depression and unhappiness from the day before changed to today’s awkwardness and disguise.

His words had hit the nail on the head.

For a moment, Mu Anan did not know what to say.

She wanted to retort, but…

She was very powerless.

Mu Anan lowered her eyes in disappointment.

However, Zong Zhengyu laughed and carried her onto his lap. He restrained her waist with both hands and said, “The reason why I didn’t let you see the o master is not because of your status.”

Was he… explaining things to her?

“The old master brought some people with him this time, including Mu Caijie.”

“Mu Caijie?” Mu Anan blurted out.

“The person pretending to be Mu Caijie,” replied Zong Zhengyu.

Mu Anan paused for a moment. “The person who has been helping Jiang Group

in your name all these years to avoid smart drugs?”

“To be exact, his goal has never been the smart drug,” Zong Zhengyu said as he caressed the wound on Mu Anan’s back.

The wound was still healing.

Because of the infection and festering, the recovery was relatively slow.

However, no matter how slow the recovery was, it was still in the recovery stage.

Nevertheless, Zong Zhengyu still remembered the appearance of Mu Anan’s wounds in the boxing ring.

It would be unforgettable and heart-aching for the rest of his life.

Zong Zhengyu caressed her gently again and again. “I didn’t want you to see her because the other party’s target is me. It was never the smart drug or the Mu family.”

“The Mu family is just a chess piece, right?” Mu Anan’s voice suddenly calmed down as she looked at Zong Zhengyu quietly.

That was already a nice way to put it.

If one were to explain this matter in a more straightforward way, it could be summarized as one sentence. The fake Mu Caijie had always been targetmg the Zong Zhengyu, and the Mu family and the Huo family were just sacrifices to get close to him.

-But there’s something I don’t understand,” Mu Anan said. “When Mom and

Grandpa died, you and I didn’t know each other. Why would she target the Mu family?”

As soon as Mu Anan said that, Zong Zhengyu’s usually deep and calm gaze clearly had some different emotions. He even shifted his gaze elsewhere.

After a few seconds, his gaze returned to Mu Anan.

Mu Anan asked again, “It’s the Jiang family and the Huo family again. Why is he targeting you in such a roundabout way? He doesn’t seem like he really wants to do anything to you. It’s more like he wants to… torture you?” Mu Anan was a meticulous person. With Zong Zhengyu’s explanation, she immediately thought of many things.

For example, back at Qiyun Mountain, the fake Mu Caijie had countless chances to kill her.

To be more precise, as long as the fake Mu Caijie said a word, the Jiang family would kill her in minutes.

He could even use even dirtier methods to mess with Mu Anan.

But in the end, he didn’t. Instead, he placed her in the underground boxing ring.

Even if Mu Anan didn’t fight, dying in the ring was a relatively clean way to die. Mu Anan had already felt that something was wrong. Now that Zong Zhengyu had explained what he did, Mu Anan felt that this was a deliberate scheme. The purpose of the scheme was not to kill Mu Anan, nor was it to kill Zong Zhengyu.

The real reason was… torturing this man!

Or should she say, test this man?

Mu Anan did not have a complete answer to her last guess.

She looked at Zong Zhengyu. “Seventh Master, do you have any grudges with this person?”

Zong Zhengyu blinked his eyes casually and said softly, “Some old matter.”

After giving that answer, Zong Zhengyu didn’t say anything else. He just looked elsewhere.

Mu Anan’s heart suddenly sank.

The atmosphere in the car also started to turn subtle.

Old matter?

It was a simple sentence, but Mu Anan knew very well that there was a heavy backstory.

It was an old matter, an old matter from ten years ago that made Gu Shuqing leave Liuli City and never step foot into the Zong residence, made Zong Zhengyu have post-traumatic stress disorder, and made the fake Mu Caipe set up a trap and go around in circles just to torture Zong Zhengyu.

At this moment, Mu Anan really wanted to ask what kind of old matter it was.

But in the end, she chose to keep the question in her heart.

Mu Anan pretended to be relaxed and smiled. She changed the topic slightly. “Ha, so, Seventh Master, you didn’t let me see the old master because you wanted to protect me?”

As Mu Anan spoke, she left Zong Zhengyu’s lap and sat down. “You think I’m too weak. You’re not afraid of me meeting the old master, but you’re afraid of me meeting the person behind the scenes? Are you afraid that he will target me or that he will hurt me? Seventh Master, you underestimate me. How could e hurt?”

As she spoke, Mu Anan raised her fist and waved it.

If she didn’t seem imposing enough, she would roll up her sleeves and show Zong Zhengyu that she also had muscles.

If it wasn’t for the fact that it would look too unrefined, she would have exposed her torso muscles.

After all, she had always been an athletic girl, so strength was not a problem. Looking at Mu Anan, who was showing off, Zong Zhengyu laughed.

He placed his hand on Mu Anan’s head, inserted his fingers into the wig, and rubbed it. “Kid.”

“Children can protect themselves, too.” Mu Anan was not convinced. “You said it before. You hoped that no matter where I was or what kind of danger I was in, I would be able to protect myself until you came looking for me. I did it. I’m not weak at all.”

“Yes, yes, my kid is the best.”

“That’s why I’m not weak at all. I can bear anything,” said Mu Anan.

Even if it was a devastating truth, she could bear it.

It was just that sometimes, she didn’t want to find out so early.

-So, you want to see the old master?” Zong Zhengyu asked.

Mu Anan had a confident smile on her face, but she didn’t know how to answer his sudden question.

Did she want to see him?

Actually, she didn’t really want to see the old master, who had an imposing aura.

It wasn’t that Mu Anan was cowering in fear.

She just felt that her identity was not suitable, and her position was not good either. Mu Anan was like a small fry.

Previously, she had been brooding over it because Zong Zhengyu had taken the initiative not to let her see the old master.

Now that he had explained it clearly, Mu Anan felt a little melancholic.

“I don’t know. I feel a little depressed when I think about meeting your dad.” Mu Anan sighed half-jokingly.

“Then don’t see them.”

“Ah?”

Zong Zhengyu chuckled and pinched Mu Anan’s cheek. “But at the end of the day, you still need to meet him at least once. You should let him know of your existence. Don’t worry, I’ll protect you.

Zong Zhengyu said the last sentence very softly, and he whispered it in Mu Anan’s ear.

But to Mu Anan, that was not just a simple sentence.

It touched her heart.

At that moment, Mu Anan wanted to give her life to this man.

She looked away. “Then… I’ll meet him..”
