"Father, why did you let her go?" Shen Jinyu asked angrily.
"What should I do then if I don't let her go? Should I detain her here? Don't you forget about your identity. Moreover, how would we know how far she has plotted against us if we don't investigate it? We'll take revenge upon her later on. Now, what we should do now is to investigate your daughter-in-law's identity. Rong Junhan is older than Jianchuan. It means that she had a child with another guy out there earlier on. However, the Rong family hid it from us."
Huang Yu felt like her heart was being stabbed by a knife when she thought about the fact that her son had just got married. Moreover, they had not yet returned from overseas.
Mu Qiqi shook her head when she saw how the Shen family had been ruffled Rong Junhan. She took a deep breath, "Grandpa, Dad, I'm afraid that I don't have a say for what happened in the Shen family. But, please let me deal with Mu Tangxue."
"Xiao Qi..." Grandpa Shen sighed. "What do you mean? You belong with us."
"Qiqi..." Huang Yu remembered how she had treated Mu Qiqi before. She was guilty and shameful. "I'm so sorry to you. I was blind. Please forgive me."
"It's difficult to see through one's heart. Who would know that a relative who has been living with us for more than ten years could be a wolf in sheepskin? Second Aunt, I don't blame you." Mu Qiqi replied. "It's not because I'm a generous person but I'm afraid that what you'll face in the future would be punishment enough.
"Since Rong Junhan revealed the fact of her illegitimate daughter, it means that surely she has something against you in her hand. Maybe, she would manipulate the event where Second Elder founded a company with her. By the way, Second Elder belongs to the Shen family and the Shen family works for the government. Hence, you can't endure any scandal."
"Just take a look at yourself. An eighteen-year-old kid can see better than you. Surely, she sees it much clearer than me too." Grandpa Shen sneered. He admitted that he was indeed old now. "Why don't you go back home and think of a strategy against her? Why do you still stand there doing nothing?
"Then, we'll leave now, Father." Shen Jinyun led his wife away. "We have learned our lesson now."
Grandpa Shen scoffed. Then, he turned to look at Third Elder and Third Aunt. "How about the two of you?"
"Thankfully, we didn't have much contact with her these past few years. So, we don't have any business with her." Third Aunt smiled and said.
"Father, don't worry."
"That's good." Grandpa Shen glanced at them before turning to look at Mu Qiqi again. "What do you plan to do with Mu Tangxue?"
Mu Qiqi then turned to look at Mu Tangxue and smiled. "Grandpa, no punishment is better than her living within my sight. Give her a poor house and a poor school. Let her have a simple yet pitiful life. Then, she won't be able to do anything anymore. I also want her to witness my success."
"But, I'm worried no matter where I put her. However, I can't kill her, isn't it?"
Mu Tangxue was stunned now. She did not even know what the others said beside her. She also did not know where Mu Qiqi had planned to send her to.
Grandpa Shen nodded his head and agreed. "She looks so much like you. So, it's easy for her to pretend to be you. You better be careful."
"Grandpa, I'm no longer the previous me whom she could play a fool."
"Xiao Qi, you belong with us from now on. Don't be shy. As my granddaughter and Jianchuan's daughter, who would dare to bully you?"
Mu Qiqi smiled and turned to look at Shen Jianchuan. "Dad, I'll come and visit you next time. Recover soon."
Shen Jianchuan nodded his head. He smiled gratifyingly.
It was because he could foresee Mu Qiqi's future. She would definitely be able to do great things in the future. Then, it would be able to compensate for all those years which he lost while lying on the sickbed.
