This was a deserted area in C City.
The darkness of the night engulfed this place, making it seem exceptionally terrifying and empty. The bustling city of C, however, was far away in the horizon.
Mu Ying knew that Guan Yumo and Jiang Jun must have already found out that they were missing and were definitely trying to find them. However, she was actually afraid that they would come looking for her now, because Mu Rong was extremely agitated.
If the one being held hostage was her, Mu Ying wouldn't mind wasting her time with Mu Rong. But the one being held hostage was Gu Qingyou, she was really worried ??
Even though Gu Qingyou's mental fortitude was good, and even when facing Mu Rong's coercion, she was not humble nor arrogant, but Mu Ying's heart was in her throat.
If there was anything wrong with Gu Qingyou, how would she explain it to him?
In order to stall for time, Mu Ying could only continuously pacify Mu Rong. Uncle, I know that you've suffered a lot in the past few years, so why don't you tell me ?? Speak out the voice in your heart, and at least you'll feel better. "
"In my generation of Mu??s Family, only your father and I are male, but because I am not your uncle's child, I can never compare to your father's status in the Mu Family. From a young age, I am just like a servant of the Mu Family, always being looked down upon by your father with my proud nostrils raised ?? After your father passed away early, I thought that the heavens had finally opened their eyes. But never would I have thought that even after your father died, your uncle never once thought of giving me the Mu's Group to control ?? "
As he spoke till here, Mu Rong scoffed, "He would rather look for the illegitimate child your father left behind, than to think about me. What's even more despicable is that ?? After finding this illegitimate child, you still want me to do his thing, you obviously don't view me as a member of the Mu Family, you only treat me as a servant ?? "
Mu Ying immediately shook her head, and said seriously, "I don't know about my father, but uncle, you really misunderstood second grandfather ?? It's not like second grandfather didn't consider letting you inherit the Mu Family's family property, but if he were to let you inherit it, it would mean breaking the tradition of Mu Family's long room controlling Mu's for a hundred years. Once this tradition is broken, there would definitely be internal strife over the inheritance. But second grandfather has never treated you as a servant. While you were by my brother's side, second grandfather had always told me that the Mu Family had let you down, and said that you were the best disciple in the past hundred years ?? "
What Mu Ying had said was the truth, and these were all things that Mu Xiao had told Mu Ying in front of him. Only, Mu Ying thought that Mu Rong understood what she was doing and had not told him, but she never thought that Mu Rong would accumulate so much resentment in her heart.
"If that's the case, then don't say anymore ??" What do you mean by me inheriting and breaking one of the Mu Family's hundred years of traditions? " Mu Rong said angrily, "Uncle is from the main wife, but he is not the main son. After uncle dies, he took over the Mu's, why is it that under the same situation, I can't inherit the Mu's?"
"But uncle, you should know that at that time, Second Grandpa was forced to take over the Mu's because the people from the Second Branch were eyeing him covetously. If Second Grandfather did not take over the Mu's, then the Second Branch would have already taken over the Mu's ?? Second Grandpa did not want to be the leader, he was just thinking for the Mu Family. " Mu Ying tried her best to explain.
However, Mu Rong still ridiculed and laughed out loud, "The people from the second house have always been eyeing them covetously. Could it be that after your father's death, your uncle isn't worried about the changes in his family?"
Mu Ying slowly said, "Actually, it should have been you who inherited it. But before my father died, he told Second Grandfather that he still had a child that had to be left behind. And you need to know, if my brother was still young, like when second grandfather took over Mu's, my father would definitely let you inherit the family business ?? You need to understand that second grandfather truly values you a lot, but to second grandfather, there is nothing more important than the rules and reputation of the Mu Family. "
Mu Rong suddenly scolded angrily, "Enough, don't speak such false words again ??. At this point, I can't turn back, but I'm very pleased that my uncle is dead, he has finally met his proper end, and now, I want my uncle's most important person, which is your darling granddaughter, to go down and accompany him! "
Hearing that, Mu Ying hurriedly said, "Since you want me to die, why don't you let go of me and let me be your hostage? Think about it, if Mo and Jiang Jun were to arrive later, you would only be able to harm quiet down. And will quiet down would cause pain to Second Grandfather who is underground? "
"You are very smart, just like your father and brother. It is a pity that this little bit of intelligence is not enough to be used on me ?? Because, you think I don't know that you want to save Gu Qingyou? " "Let me tell you, tonight, no matter if it's you or Gu Qingyou, you will all die. Now that I have Gu Qingyou under my control, I know that you won't have the heart to abandon her, so I can rest assured and wait for Guan Yumo and Jiang Jun's arrival!"
"What exactly do you want to do?" After failing to persuade her, Mu Ying had no choice but to give up and asked in frustration.
Mu Rong chuckled and said, "I want to end you all personally in front of them ?? To let all these people who caused me to reach this stage today, all of them to fall into endless pain. "
"If it wasn't for the fact that I underestimated you, do you really think you could injure one of them by holding the gun in your hand and trembling?"
A low voice came from the darkness, the familiar male voice immediately made Mu Ying turn around, and when she saw Guan Yumo's tall and straight figure walking slowly towards them, she immediately started crying, "Mo ??"
Mu Ying never thought that he would find them so quickly. In an instant, she was no longer afraid.
Unfortunately, Mu Ying could not move at all and ran towards Guan Yumo, because Mu Rong had previously said that if she dared to move, he would kill Gu Qingyou.
Guan Yumo looked deeply at Gu Qingyou's pale face which was covered in tears, and comforted him softly, "Don't be afraid, with me here, all of you will be safe."
Mu Ying trusted Guan Yumo and nodded strongly.
At this time, Mu Rong laughed coldly, "You're the one who got here first. Seeing you all, you came from different directions, otherwise, you wouldn't have found them so quickly ?? But it seems that this is heaven's will, because once you find them, it will be far more interesting than when Jiang Jun finds them. This way, I can play a game with you guys, and this game will be called the game of Happy New or Old Love, which is more important ?? "
