As Xi Xiaye expected, it was Wang Hui who called. It was because of what appeared in the papers, and it seemed that things were much worse than she thought.

“It’s fine. I don’t particularly mean anything. Come back tonight. Tell my granddaughter-in-law not to stress herself out. We’ll face this together as a family!” Wang Hui’s gentle voice reached them, warming Xi Xiaye’s heart.

“Mmm, we’ll head back now.” Mu Yuchen then hung up and looked at the quiet Xi Xiaye. “Let’s go back now so they don’t worry.”

She nodded and did not say anything. Instead, she just let him drag her ahead.

…

It was near evening when they reached the Mu Residence. Because it was drizzling outside, the air was humid.

Dinner was already served, so the couple went straight to the dining table upon entering the house.

Mu Yinan and Wang Hui were both around. However, Zhuang Shurong was on leave today while Mu Tangchuang had matters to attend to.

“Xiaye, we won’t ask you what exactly happened. Your grandpa called us just now and told us about it. You really are a silly girl. We’ve discussed it and have decided to do a thorough investigation. Otherwise, your father might face a hard time.”

Wang Hui studied Xi Xiaye preciously.

How could she believe that a strong-willed woman like Xi Xiaye would do something like that? It was obvious that she was framed!

Moreover, judging from the fact that she was the future heiress to Fuhua Properties was enough to shut everyone up. However, Shen Yue’s made an odd decision to publicize her identity as his granddaughter only after her 28th birthday, and it was exactly because of this that Shen Wenna…

With Shen Wenna’s pride as well as her undying love for Xi Mushan, she would never talk about that which eventually caused the tragedy after that.

Shen Yue had also been brooding over this matter, which was why he did not want to talk about it either.

Wang Hui truly understood the reason behind Shen Yue’s actions. An experienced businessman like Shen Yue had seen too many kinds of people. He just wanted to protect his children regardless of whether his actions were right or wrong. It was obvious that he did not really care much about a person’s family background; he preferred a man that would treat his granddaughter well.

Precisely because of this, Wang Hui investigated more about Xi Xiaye after knowing about her. The findings were satisfactory. She had always longed for a strong, kind, and positive girl as her grandson’s partner.

“I heard that this matter has caused quite a negative effect, especially on your father. If it isn’t handled properly, there might be an investigation into him. Recently, they’ve been pretty strict on governors’ behavior. Your father was already pretty stressed out because of the orphanage issue, and now…”

Zhuang Shurong paused, her eyes showing concern. “Don’t worry. It won’t be a big issue if we’re able to find out the truth. It’s just that on your father’s end…”

Xi Xiaye understood what Zhuang Shurong was trying to say. No matter what the end results were, her father Xi Mushan would still be affected one way or another, especially if she and Xi Xinyi were exposed. Including Shen Wenna and Yue Lingsi, it would cause a massive chain reaction! Throw Shen Yue and the current Mu family into the equation and things would be chaotic!

Xi Xiaye felt heavy inside. Suddenly, she had no idea what to reply.

Suddenly, the quiet Mu Yuchen spoke up, “It’s fine. You guys don’t have to do anything. Things will be clear soon enough. Let’s just be as low-profile as possible and not overdo it. We’ll just explain what happened to them. Ah Mo will be sending the documents to the court in a few days. After things are made clear, I’ll request for a public apology from the people who handled this case in the military academy back then as well as demand punishment for the perpetrator.”

As he put his chopsticks down and grabbed a napkin to gracefully wipe his mouth, he grabbed Xi Xiaye’s phone and stood up slowly. “I’m done. You guys enjoy.”

He then left the dining table swiftly after saying those words.

Zhuang Shurong and Wang Hui seemed a little gloomy when they saw Mu Yuchen left to sit on the sofa as if they remembered something from the past. Their eyes seemed complicated and they traded glances with each other before continuing with their meal in silence.

While Xi Xiaye was curious, she did not ask anything.

At almost 11 p.m., they went back to Maple Residence.

After a shower, she handed an envelope to him with her half-dried hair. “I’ll give you these documents. I don’t think I can handle them.”

He looked up and glanced at her before taking the envelope. When he opened it, he saw that it was full of evidence gathered by Detective Zhang.

He slipped it back in and wrapped his arm around her slender waist, pulling her down on his lap. “Leave this matter to me in the future. Are you worried about me?”

Xi Xiaye sighed as she closed her eyes, “No…”

“Then, why?” He asked.

“Because I don’t want you to know about these… I kind of feel like… I’m disgraceful…” Her voice was no louder than a whisper.

He took a deep breath and hugged her tightly. “Who cares? You’re mine. I’ll protect you. So many people want this, yet you’re not appreciating it.”

“So, I’ll let you handle this matter then?”

“Mmm.”

She hesitated for a while before saying, “Don’t trouble Father and Mother. I just want to remove the stains on me…”

No matter what, she could not just leave Shen Wenna and Xi Mushan alone. There was not much that she could hold onto anyway and she was afraid that she would have nothing left if she lost anymore.

“Of course, it’d be best if we can take Xi Xinyi down, but it seems like there isn’t enough evidence. And the Yue family… about Han Yifeng and her…”

“Don’t you think it’s a good idea if we give these to them as their wedding gift? Also, I’m putting in so much effort for you. Can you not mention that person’s name in front of me? Mmm!”

He grumbled unhappily, but before he could finish his sentence, her cold, pink lips met his!
