Mu Zhendong was startled.

After Ren Wanxuan’s incident, he tried to contact Ji Shaojun and Ji Heng, but neither of them paid any attention to him.

Then it suddenly occurred to him that there was such a person—Ji Mulan.

Bai Lian’s biological mother.

Unlike Ren Wanxuan, Ji Mulan would come back for holidays, but not often. Mu Zhendong had greeted her mainly to get in touch with Xu En.

Ji Mulan was easy to read, liked to be in control, and was proud and competitive...

With that in mind, he took out his cellphone and found a number.

He dialed it.

On the other end of the phone.

Ji Mulan handed the rattle to Xu Siqi and listened to him slur the word "sister," taught by the old Madame Xu and Xu En; "sister" was Xu Siqi’s first word.

During the New Year’s, Bai Lian even held him for a while.

"Mr. Mu," she walked outside to answer the phone.

"Mrs. Xu," Mu Zhendong’s voice was smiling as he greeted Ji Mulan, then quickly shifted the topic, "It’s a common misunderstanding... You are her mother, you’ve raised her so well, your role is indispensable, she will certainly listen to your advice."

Ji Mulan was startled.

She wondered if Xu En could have foreseen this?

Holding the phone, she walked downstairs, "I’m sorry, Mr. Mu, but I can’t help you with this."

After saying that, she hung up the phone.

Sitting on the sofa, she picked up the glass of water that the auntie had poured for her. Xu En had already instructed her last week not to get involved.

Even if Xu En hadn’t reminded her, she wouldn’t have been able to get involved anyway.

Bai Lian had long ago blocked her out; without Xu En and Ji Heng, Bai Lian probably wouldn’t even spare her a glance.

Ji Mulan sat on the sofa in a daze.

On this end of the phone, Mu Zhendong hadn’t expected Ji Mulan to refuse as well.

"Well," Mu Zhendong put his cellphone back in his pocket, looked up at his secretary, and said indifferently, "This time, don’t leak any information to the Xu Family or Mu Yining, having the Gao Family and the Feng Family involved is enough."

He was ready to go it alone.

Mu Yining arrived at the tea room for guests where Bai Lian was lazily leaning against the window frame, with her back to the door, looking at the peony plants outside.

In this season, the flowers had not bloomed yet, but the leaves had turned green.

She was dressed lightly, her eyebrows and eyes serene and composed, without a hint of youthful impetuousness.

Outside the tea room, the second granduncle peered at Bai Lian through the window frame.

He and Dong Xiaobai had a disagreement with Mu Yining on the way here, so naturally, he didn’t have any reason to enter right now.

The second granduncle’s turbid gaze fell upon Bai Lian with slight surprise; last time he hadn’t managed to see Bai Lian before she left.

Now that he saw her, he finally understood why Mu Xiangguang, who had been reclusive for many years, made an exception to meet Bai Lian that day.

This girl had the presence of a great leader.

With Mu Yining standing by Bai Lian, it seemed Mu Zhendong’s wariness of Bai Lian was not so hard to understand after all.

"Xiaobai..." The second granduncle looked at Dong Xiaobai.

This time Dong Xiaobai just gave a wry smile, "Forget it, don’t ask me to be the mediator anymore. The Mu Family needs peace, and someone has to give in, but that person can’t be Yining every time, right?"

The second granduncle didn’t say anything more this time, his hands behind his back.

Inside the tea room, seeing Bai Lian.

Mu Yining’s previously irritable mood finally calmed down.

"Alian, why are you here today?" Mu Yining sat down in a chair and gestured for Wang Assistant to brew the tea again.

Wang Assistant brought over the tea set and started heating the water anew.

He wasn’t too familiar with these elegant customs and just haphazardly poured the water.
