Chapter 130

Chapter 130 Is Everything Okay?

With a light sneer, Mu Xia simply nodded and boarded the MPV.

There was a change in the driver's attitude. Situ Hai must have said something to him.

Apparently, she would only receive a decent treatment when she played the role of a useful Shan Shan.

However, all these no longer mean anything to her ever since she found out that Situ Hai was not her biological father.

She looked up at the hotel from the car window and caught the curtains in her room moved, as if someone was standing there, observing her.

「Am I seeing things? It's impossible that Sijue will want to see me off.」

Retracting her gaze, Mu Xia sank into deep thoughts again, trying to figure out a way to resolve all these problems she faced.

She was confident that the truth would be at her fingertips as soon as she had discovered about her real identity.

Soon, they arrived at the Situ residence.

Mu Xia did not get much sleep, except for the short time when she was getting a drip. In the manor, there were also two other people who stayed up all night.

Upon receiving the news that Mu Xia had arrived, Situ Hai immediately went out of his study room and dashed downstairs.

Meanwhile, Mu Xinyue got the news too.

"Is she back?" Mu Xinyue could not believe what she had heard.

The maid nodded. "Yes, Master Situ is on his way to welcome her."

"Welcome…" Mu Xinyue's hands started to tremble.

「If Hai is welcoming Xia personally, that means she's successfully bonded with the young master. It'd be much harder for me to tackle her henceforth.」

Feeling like a cat on hot bricks, Mu Xinyue paced back and forth after sending the maid away.

She called Jiang Fuming and told him all about Mu Xia.

["I told you so, but you didn't believe me. Considering Xia's alluring look, who wouldn't like getting entangled with her?"] Jiang Fuming uttered with much annoyance.

Mu Xinyue shushed him and retorted, ["This isn't the time to criticize me. Hurry up and think of a solution."]

Jiang Fuming replied, ["What else is there to think about? Just go with the original plan. This might not be a bad thing, after all."]

["She's with Sijue now. Is this not the worst thing that could have happened?"]

["Don't fret and listen to me. According to our initial plan, she'd be given a bad name at best. However, things have gotten more interesting now. If our plan goes well, the person that she's betraying is Ye Sijue. You and I know that the consequences are severe when one offends Ye family."]

Upon hearing that, Mu Xinyue became hopeful again.

["Yes, you're right! When the young master blows a fuse, he might take revenge on Situ Hai too. If the time is right, we can even seize the opportunity and defeat Situ Hai once and for all. Then, the Situ Group will be entirely ours."]

["When that time comes, Yue'er, you'll be mine and mine only…"]

Mu Xinyue simpered. ["Yup. You'll have to arrange this quickly and get the drug that you've been looking for as soon as possible."]

["All right."]

She ended the phone call and headed downstairs happily to take a good look at Mu Xia.

「The happier she is now, the more dejected she will become later. The difference between heaven and hell is mind-blowing.」

Situ Hai was over the moon when he saw Mu Xia. "Shan Shan, my darling daughter is back! Is everything okay?"

It's a redundant question. Anyone can tell that everything went smoothly last night, judging from the time Mu Xia comes home.

She smiled bashfully. "I… guess so?"
