The Lie Continues

Mu Anan pulled Zong Zhengyu’s hand away said with a pained expression, “Seventh Master, what’s happening outside? It sounds really chaotic and I feel sick.”

Mu Anan’s discomfort was real, and so was her pale face.

After all, the crazy Seventh Master was not someone that most people could handle.

Zong Zhengyu looked at Mu Anan and frowned.

When he saw that her eyes were bloodshot, he covered them with his hands. “Didn’t sleep well last night?”

“Yeah, I suffered the whole night.” Mu Anan said innocently.

Zong Zhengyu frowned. “You were not playing games?”

Mu Anan quickly shook her head. “Seventh Master, I’m very obedient. You said that gaming hurts my eyes, so I stopped playing.”

She put on a good girl face.

Zong Zhengyu nodded in satisfaction and helped Mu Anan back to bed. “Look after your eyes.”

Mu Anan lay back down obediently. She was still very nervous and did not dare to look at Zong Zhengyu.

Seventh Master was too shrewd.

If Mu Anan showed any signs of panic, he would be able to tell that something was wrong.

Zong Zhengyu helped Mu Anan lie down and massage her abdomen.

“Why is your face red?” Zong Zhengyu was about to touch Mu Anan’s face, but she quickly moved away.

Zong Zhengyu frowned.

Mu Anan explained, “I-I’m tired. I just want to sleep. Seventh Master, please carry on with your business.”

As she spoke, Mu Anan struggled away from Zong Zhengyu’s hand.

“I’m going to sleep.” Mu Anan quickly closed her eyes.

“Have a good rest.”

Zong Zhengyu comforted her as he lifted her collar and pulled the blanket over her. He did not stay any longer and turned to leave.

Zong Zhengyu had just left Mu Anan’s room when he met a servant who brought over some brown sugar tea.

With a cold face, he waved his hand and dismissed the servant.

However, Zong Zhengyu stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Mu Anan’s tightly shut door.

He recalled the fair skin he saw when he lifted Mu Anan’s collar.

He suddenly suspected that the woman last night was this girl.

He was really paranoid.

Although this girl had a wild personality and crazy thoughts, she always treated him as an elder and wouldn’t do such a thing.

Zong Zhengyu rubbed his glabella, feeling the onset of a headache. He strode away and went back to the study.

He sat down on the sofa and grabbed the cigarette and lighter on the table. After tipping his head to light the cigarette, he threw the solid gold lighter on the table, creating a crisp sound.

He smoked, and let the smoke enter his lungs before he blew out beautiful smoke rings and narrowed his eyes.

As the thin smoke slowly dissipated, Zong Zhengyu’s devilish face was revealed.

His straight brows, bright eyes, cold facial features, and his noble and cold aura made him look like a god standing in the clouds, looking down on all things in the world.

However, at this moment, there was a hint of irritation in the god’s eyes.

“Rat-a-tat-tat.”

There was a knock on the door and Luo Sen entered.

He reported respectfully, “Seventh Master, I’ve already asked someone to investigate. Miss Anan was in her room last night. According to her game login status, she was playing games the whole night.”

After he said that, Luo Sen secretly stole a glance at Zong Zhengyu.

Zong Zhengyu simply replied with a lazy “alright”.

He sat with his back leaned lazily against the sofa, his right hand holding a cigarette while his left hand rubbed the space between his eyebrows. His expression was cold.

The sunlight from the French windows behind him shone on him, as if covering him in a layer of golden light.

When Luo Sen say this, he lowered his head and looked at the file he was carrying. “There’s another matter. It’s about the Mu family tragedy.”

Zong Zhengyu, who had his eyes closed, opened his eyes immediately when he heard that.

Luo Sen handed the file to Zong Zhengyu.

Zong Zhengyu put out his cigarette and opened the file.

It contained information about a man in his late fifties.

Luo Sen summarized, “This man’s name is Chen Ke. He’s the person who hired assassins to kill Miss Anan’s mother and grandfather. After the incident, Chen Ke underwent plastic surgery, changed his name and went abroad. That’s where the trail ended.”

“Also, according to the investigation, Chen Ke and Miss Anan’s father have a close relationship, so it’s difficult to rule out that Miss Anan’s father committed murders in order to get the Mu family assets.”

Mu Anan’s father had married into the Mu family back then.

The Mu family owned a renowned medical company in Jianglan City. However, after the Mu family tragedy eight years ago, Mu Medical had fallen into the hands of the Jiang family.

Zong Zhengyu also knew that Mu Anan had been training herself to avenge her family.

She had always suspected that her beastly father was the one who ordered the assassinations, but she had no evidence.

And now, direct evidence had surfaced.

“Seventh Master, I’ll update Miss Anan about this immediately…”

Before Luo Sen could finish, Zong Zhengyu had already raised his hand to stop him.

His voice was cold as he said, “The murderer will surrender himself in three days and this matter will be over.”

Luo Sen was very surprised. He did not fully understand Seventh Master’s reaction.

After all, the Mu family tragedy had always been a pain in Mu Anan’s heart.

However, Zong Zhengyu’s face was cold. He tipped his head to light another cigarette. When he raised his head, his eyes narrowed.

Given Mu Anan’s personality, once this kind of evidence was handed to her, she would immediately kamikaze her way to the Jiang residence.

However, the Mu family tragedy wasn’t as simple as Jiang Zhen hiring someone to kill the Mus so he could seize the family business.

There was a huge benefit behind it all.

Mu Anan was still young and Zong Zhengyu would not drag her into it.

In Mu Anan’s room…

After Zong Zhengyu left, Mu Anan ran to the bathroom.

Because she was too nervous, she was sweating all over.

She took off her clothes.

Half an hour later, Mu Anan came out of the bathroom and bumped into Dr. Gu, who came over to find her.

“Miss Anan, you can’t sleep well because of the pain. I’ve brewed you some medicine. You will be able to sleep after you drink it.”

Dr. Gu deliberately spoke loudly and immediately leaned closer to Mu Anan and asked in a low voice, “Miss Anan, are you alright? Did you give yourself away?”

“No, I didn’t.”

Mu Anan shook her head. “But I feel uneasy. I keep feeling that Seventh Master suspects me.”

Dr. Gu was instantly nervous when he heard that.

After all, he was the one who had come up with this stupid idea. Although it worked, once it was found out, Mu Anan would be sent overseas and he would be dead.

After thinking for a while, Dr. Gu suggested, “Miss Anan, why don’t you excuse yourself by saying that you have to attend to something at school and leave quickly?”

Mu Anan immediately agreed with this suggestion.

There was nothing safer than leaving as quickly as possible.

But on second thought, she immediately shook her head. “I can’t leave!”

Dr. Gu was surprised. “Why?”
