2629 The Consequences
Qiao Mu’s eyes were apathetic. She looked up at the old master. She saw the old man looking at her with bright eyes. There was not the slightest bit of animosity.
She could feel whether someone was being sincere.
She had been extremely sensitive since young. That was why she could see through people’s intentions better than anyone else.
At least in her eyes, the old master could be considered to be sincere.
“Qiaoqiao?” Mo Lian walked up to her. He sighed in relief and grasped her petite hand.
In any case, no one could bully his Qiao…
If Mu Cang this old geezer truly dared to be unappreciative, he absolutely wouldn’t let the old geezer live in comfort.
Qiao Mu nodded her petite head lightly, expressing that everything was alright and that he did not have to worry.
Mo Lian released her hand gently and stepped back with a relaxed expression.
This time, it was the old man’s turn to heave a sigh of relief.
The pressure Crown Prince Mo emanated just now was truly too suffocating.
This young couple were both not to be provoked.
Other people might not have noticed, but the old sir noticed that when the little fellow attacked, the entire area had fallen into dead silence. One could practically even hear a pin drop!
Which of the Mu Clan’s younger generation could emit such pressure?
The little fellow’s gaze truly made people’s hearts heavy when they looked at her.
Mu Jingfeng finally found his voice again. He spoke raspily, “Why would your mother, she…”
Qiao Mu did not even look at him. She stared coldly at Mu Erde. “Do you need me to find people to help you?”
Mu Erde’s entire body shook. By this time, he was already filled with extreme regret.
“No one can save you.” After Qiao Mu said this, she glanced at Huifeng and company. “Since this wimp is afraid to do it himself, you guys help him.”
“Yes!”
“Mu Qiao!”
“Shut up!” Qiao Mu abruptly turned around and glowered at the Mu Clan’s second uncle who was calling her name.
“Do not change my name without permission! My name is Qiao Mu. This will forever be my name in this lifetime! You! Are not qualified to change it.”
Mu Jingxing’s heart clenched from the little lady’s pitch-black and ice-cold eyes.
“What happened to your mother?” Mu Jingfeng still couldn’t resist asking.
Qiao Mu turned around and gave her father a bone-chilling and unfeeling gaze.
This gaze made Mu Jingfeng’s entire body shiver, as if he had gotten pricked.
How similar she was to that woman!
The same insufferable arrogance and detachment, and the exact same contempt for him.
The wrath in his chest seemed to explode all of a sudden, gushing out!
“Qiao Mu! What is this gaze of yours? Did you hear my question?”
“My lord.” Mu Jingfeng’s wife’s eyelid jerked. She hastily yanked at Mu Jingfeng’s arm and said in a low voice, “What are you doing?”
“Such an affected and fake display of affection.” Qiao Mu spat these words out coldly. Faint contempt flitted past her eyes, and she ordered, “Make him eat it!”
Without another word, Huifeng and company held back Mu Erde’s arms and forced him to swallow the pill inside the bottle.
Mu Jingxing wanted to go up and stop them, but Mu Cang halted them.
The old sir sighed tiredly, “Don’t complicate things even more.”
“Cough. Cough, cough, cough!!” Mu Erde grabbed his throat in horror. He coughed with all his might, as if trying to spit out that pill from his mouth.
However, that pill melted upon contact. It had already been digested.
