nChapter 1288 Breakfast, or …… me? (4)

nXu Yuning weighed her options and finally decided – don’t mess with Mu Sijun.

nShe can …… t afford to mess with her now.

n“Never mind, to tell you the truth-” Xu Yuning poked the bun in the bowl and said faintly, “I just want to know what happened to Kang Ruicheng.”

nMu Sijiu was quite satisfied with this answer, told Xu Yuning truthfully about Kang Ruicheng’s current situation, paused, and then continued, “Bo Yan and Gao Han are trying to find a way to confirm Kang Ruicheng’s guilt. However, this matter has a certain degree of difficulty.”

n“Hmm?” Xu Yuning didn’t quite understand the look, “What difficulty?”

n“Uncle Lu’s car accident was too many years in the past, and it’s difficult to re-discover the evidence.” Mu Sijiu said, “We can’t necessarily prove that Kang Ruicheng intentionally killed someone.”

n“…… We can prove that Kang Ruicheng killed my grandmother!” Xu Yuning said, her emotions beginning to flare, “My grandmother died less than a year ago, it should be relatively easy to get evidence, right?”

n“In the legal sense, Grandma Xu belongs to accidental death – this is where Kang Ruicheng is smart.” Mu Sijun gave Xu Yuning a soothing glance, signaling with his gaze for her to calm down, “There are quite a few charges on Kang Ruicheng, even if he can’t be proved to have committed intentional murder, but the charge of money laundering, he will definitely not be able to get away with it.”

n“……”

nXu Yuning looked at Mu Sijiu and nodded after a long time.

nShe was actually conflicted in her mind.

nShe desperately wants Kang Ruicheng to be punished by the law, while worrying about Mu Mu.

nIf Kang Ruicheng is sanctioned by the law, Mu Mu will become an orphan.

nMu was just a child, without a home, without his only family, how was he going to live on in the future?

nMu Sijun glanced at Xu Yuning, a glance to see through the worry in the bottom of her eyes, and it was not difficult to guess what she was worried about.

nHe put down his chopsticks and said slowly, “If Mu Mu really becomes an orphan, you can arrange his future life.”

nXu Yuning obviously froze for a moment, looking at Mu Sijun in surprise: “Is it really possible?”

n“Of course.” Mu Sijiu told Xu Yuning with certainty, “I promise you.”

nXu Yuning smiled for a moment, the corners of his lips curving out in a joyful arc, then but then froze, then slowly disappeared ……

nMusashi frowned, “What’s wrong?”

n“I ……” Xu Yuning paused for a moment and said with a bitter smile, “I may not last until then?”

n“……”

n“Mu Siju,” Xu Yuning looked at Mu Siju pleadingly, “I want to ask you for one thing.”

nMu Sijun didn’t need to guess what it was about and refused without thinking, “I won’t promise you.”

nMu Sijiu had always been so decisive, Xu Yuning should have gotten used to it a long time ago, but she still inevitably froze.

nAfter a while, Xu Yuning grunted, “I haven’t said what I’m asking you to do. Must you refuse so quickly?”

n“I know even if you don’t say it.” Mu Sijun looked at Xu Yuning, his voice was icy cold, “Mu Mu is Kang Ruicheng’s son and has nothing to do with me. If you don’t care about him, there is no second person in this world who will care about him.”

n“Mu Sijiu, I ……” Xu Yuning tried to convince Mu Sijiu, but found that she hadn’t organized her words yet.

n“Yunin, even if it’s just for Mu Mu, you must live well.”

nThere was no command in Musi Jiu’s voice, but every word he spat out was extraordinarily certain.

nIt’s not hard to hear that his certainty comes from his heart’s hope.

nHe sincerely longed that Xu Yuning could live.

nXu Yuning finally understood Mu Sijue’s intentions and nodded, “I’ll listen to you and try to live.”

nMu Sijiu’s tone returned to normal: “I’ve already contacted the hospital side, you’ll go over in the afternoon and be hospitalized directly.”

n“Hey, does it have to be so fast?” Xu Yuning froze for a moment, “I still want to make a trip back to G City, a trip back home ……”

nThe home in G City, they can’t go back to it anymore.

nMu Sijiu said without moving, “When you recover, we can go back anytime. But for now, you must receive treatment immediately.”

nXu Yuning also knew that she couldn’t delay any longer.

n“So ……” she looked at Mousieu with anticipation, “is tomorrow okay?”

nMusashi raised an eyebrow, “Reason?”

n“After entering the hospital, I definitely have to listen to the doctor’s words and can’t move freely.” Xu Yuning looked blearily at Mu Siju, “Mu Siju, just one day, I want to be free for one day.”

nSince following Kang Ruicheng, Xu Yuning had never experienced freedom.

nShe wanted to experience it properly.

nThen, whatever happened next, she made sure to be in the best frame of mind possible.

nXu Yuning had always been a strong and unconvincing character, and had never used this tone of voice to speak to Mu Siju.

nMu Sijiu eventually went soft and loosened up, “Then we’ll go back tomorrow.”

nA smile blossomed on Xu Yuning’s face, stealing like a child who had gotten his way with caution.

nAfter breakfast, Xu Yuning took a shower and changed her clothes, and went to Dingya Mountain Resort with Mu Sijun.

nAs they drove to Dingya Mountain Resort, the flight Mu Mu took just happened to land at A City Airport.

nMu Mu bounced out of the airport with his favorite little school bag on his back, but didn’t see Kang Ruicheng at the exit.

nHe twisted his head back and looked at Dongzi suspiciously, “Uncle Dongzi, isn’t my daddy coming to pick me up?”

nKang Ruicheng is still at the police station, where can he come to pick up Mu Mu?

nDongzi didn’t move and made an excuse for Kang Ruicheng, “Brother Cheng has something to do, he’s not in A City right now, you won’t be able to see him until a few days later.”

nMu blinked his eyes, his pupils filled with the naive innocence of a child, “Where did Daddy go?”

n“Out of town, a place you don’t recognize.” Dongzi was afraid of revealing himself, and was busy changing the topic, “Tired from sitting on the airplane all night? I’ll take you home.”

nMu Mu obediently said, “Oh”, and after getting into the car, she leaned against the backrest of the driver’s seat and asked, “Uncle Dongzi, where’s Auntie Yuning? Is she back yet?”

nThe last thing Dongzi wanted to bring up was Xu Yuning, but he couldn’t lose his temper in front of Mu Mu, so he could only emphasize once again, “Mu Mu, you have to remember my words, don’t bring up Xu Yuning and Mu Shi Jue in the future, your daddy will get angry.”

nMusashi flattened his mouth, “But I want to know.”

nDongzi furrowed his brows, seemingly unable to bear it any longer, and his tone couldn’t help but get a little heavier: “Mu Mu, you can’t be capricious in the future!”

nThis time, if it wasn’t for Mu Mu, they would have killed Xu Yuning directly long ago, and there wouldn’t have been so many things afterwards.

nMu got in the way of their plans, and not just once or twice.

nIf Mu Mu was allowed to remain capricious any longer, it was bound to have a great impact on them.

nMu Mu’s hand that was picking at the backrest of the driver’s seat slowly slid down and whispered, “I just don’t want to see Daddy and Yuning hurt each other. Uncle Dongzi, why can’t they get along?”

n“Impossible!” Dongzi said decisively, “In this world, if there is Xu Yuning, there is no Brother Cheng, and if there is Brother Cheng, there is no Xu Yuning! Mu Mu, you have to make a choice! Who do you choose?”

nAlthough Mu Mu and Xu Yuning had feelings for each other, in this situation, the average child would choose their father, right – that’s what Dongzi thought.

nThe truth, however, was very different from what Tohko thought.

nMu lowered her head and sat back in the back seat, her cheeks bulging as she looked out, “I don’t want to choose.”

nHe’d lost Mommy early and couldn’t afford to lose Daddy again, but he didn’t want to lose Auntie Yunin either.

nWhy must he make that choice?

nTohko glanced at Mu Mu from the inside rearview mirror, shook his head, and sighed.

nHe thought that after Xu Yuning left, Mu Mu would slowly stop caring about Xu Yuning.

nBut now it seems that he was thinking too much.

nAlthough Mu Mu and Xu Yuning were not related by blood, his feelings for Xu Yuning were better than that of a family member.

nIn that case, in the future, what should this child do?

nDongzi and Mu Mu returned to the Kang family’s old mansion, everything was normal in the house, so Mu Mu didn’t get suspicious and didn’t ask about Kang Ruicheng anymore, and ate breakfast peacefully.

nDongzi came over and said, “Mu Mu, after you eat breakfast and rest for a while, I’ll take you to kindergarten in the afternoon.”

nHe didn’t have time to take care of Mu Mu all the time.

nBesides, sending Mu to kindergarten was the best way to hide certain things from him.

nMu also knew that he was bound to go to school and nodded, “Good.”

nBy this time, Mu Sijiu and Xu Yuning had almost arrived at Dingya Mountain Resort.

nSu Jianan was excited from last night to today and got up early, Lu Bo Yan asked her what she was doing up so early, she smiled and said, “I don’t know.”

nLu Bo Yan was suddenly a bit jealous and looked at Su Jianan, “I haven’t made you this happy lately. Xu Yuning is more important to you?”

n“Mr. Lu, you are mistaken, Yuning is the more important one to Sir Si.” Su Jianan paused and continued with a smile, “But, I’m really glad that Yuning is back.”

nMu Sijun looked at the time and said, “They should have already arrived in A City, and will soon come over if nothing unexpected happens.”

nSu Jianan suddenly remembered something and turned to look for her cell phone, “I’m going to give Yun Yun a call.”

nShen Yuechuan has already checked out of the hospital yesterday, and Yun Yun moved back to live in the apartment, Su Jianan would have liked to share the good news with Xiao Yun Yun at the first time, but the time was a little late yesterday, so she did not bother the young couple, and decided to contact Yun Yun again this morning.

nXiao Yun Yun had not yet woken up, and when she received Su Jianan’s phone call, her voice was still confused, with a strong sense of sleep.

nSu Jianan smiled and told Xiao Yun Yun one word at a time that Xu Yuning was back and that she and Mu Sijun would be coming over to Dingya Villa soon.

n“…… “Xiao Yun Yun froze for a second, then, completely excited, “Really? Cousin, are Boss Mu and Yuning really back?”

n“Really.” Su Jianan smiled and said, “It should not be too late for you to get up now and pack up and come over.”

n“I’ll get up right away!” Xiao Yun Yun couldn’t help but laugh out, “I knew that Boss Mu would be able to bring back Yuning! Awesome!”

nSu Jianan smiled and reminded, “If you keep praising Si Jue like this, Yue Chuan should be unhappy.”

n“Well, cousin, don’t worry about it-” Xiao Yun Yun said with conviction, “Yue Chuan isn’t a jealous maniac like cousin’s husband!”

n
