Chapter 446: Chapter 456 You said your dad… Chapter 446: Chapter 456 You said your dad… But Bai Dan had not come earlier precisely because he was catching Mu Fang, and, unexpectedly, here he was at the Mu Family home.

It was also due to his faith in Xingxing’s abilities that he felt at ease letting her come by herself, but upon seeing those few people when he arrived, he couldn’t help breaking into a cold sweat as he listened.

He kept telling himself that Xingxing had grown up, was capable, and that he must let go of her hand to let her soar. Yet he still couldn’t help worrying…

Mu Yu awoke again to find that it was already night, with Old Mrs. Mu by her hospital bed.

She stared blankly at the ceiling, her thoughts slowly converging, before she recalled that it was Bai Zhi who had saved her. It was almost laughable; she had been afraid of Bai Zhi before. But at her most frightened and helpless moment, it was Bai Zhi who had saved her.

As the nurse came in to change her dressings, Mu Yu suddenly spoke up.

“Excuse me, where is the girl who saved me now?”

“She has already left.”

The nurse left with her things, and Mu Yu felt a sense of loss. How could she have just left?

She hadn’t even expressed her gratitude yet.

At this moment, Bai Zhi was following Bai Dan, reviewing the old grocery store’s accounts, which seemed normal and thoroughly maintained.

Bai Zhi suddenly looked at the weekly sales of soy sauce and frowned.

“Grandpa, do you think the demand for this soy sauce might be too high? Selling so much in a week, is everyone drinking soy sauce like water?”

It wasn’t just soy sauce, but also sugar and MSG. They appeared to be ordinary condiments, but the quantities were suspicious.

“Grandpa, I think you should let Mu Fang and Mu Yi meet each other. I feel like they really want to see each other.”

Bai Zhi’s words brightened Bai Dan’s eyes. That’s right, their meeting now would be like foes clashing, an especially fierce confrontation. Who knew if an unexpected spark might arise?

“Xingxing, you are right. Let’s go, Grandpa will take you to find your aunt. You don’t need to worry, Grandpa is here. Xingxing, I am sorry, Grandpa has been too busy recently to spend time with you.”

He had once thought he would just watch over Xingxing as she grew up, but he ultimately couldn’t.

Xingxing has been doing well and will surely continue to do better in the future.

“Grandpa, I also want to visit the hospital once more.”

Mu Yu is clumsy and foolish, and may blurt out some secret.

“Alright, go ahead.”

When Bai Zhi arrived at the hospital, it was already dark outside, and the windows revealed nothing but pitch black.

Clouds obscured the stars and the moonlight, looking up only revealed the oppressive thickness of the clouds, giving a suffocating feeling.

“Why did you save me?”

Mu Yu didn’t quite understand why Bai Zhi had appeared and saved her.

Logically, shouldn’t she have been gloating over her misfortune?

“I am here to tell you about your brother’s situation. Aren’t I just the nicest person?”

If her aunt hadn’t uttered that phrase, she might not have suspected anything at all.

Mu Yu’s previous desperate appearance when she ran to their house and how quickly she had become thin – it raised Bai Zhi’s suspicions that something was amiss.

“What’s going on with my brother? Why was he taken away? It wasn’t because of that money, was it?”

She desperately wanted to know the answer. She didn’t at all like what her mother thought – that her brother was taken because of her. That would make her feel as if she were collapsing.

If even her mother didn’t care about her anymore, then she really had been abandoned by the world.

“Yes, that money should never have appeared in your house. Now, not only your brother, but you and your mother will be summoned for the investigation. I suggest you tell everything you know.”
