Chapter 897 - Hai Rong’s Plan III (2/2)

Mu Huan started to be slightly vigilant. She became more and more anxious.

She would definitely stigmatize Suyi if it were in the past and she would have then made Master dislike the woman.

However, her anxiety did not let her say explain that fact. She said, vaguely, “I was not quite sure. I was not born yet when she left.”

Hai Rong was a little confused.

Mu Huan had never met Suyi?

Then did it mean that Mu Ling and Chen Qingyan had not only deceived him but also Mu Huan about the distant cousin? Did they fear that Mu Huan would accidentally spill it out?

Even though Hai Rong was questioning many things in his heart, he was a little cold to his apprentice—Mu Huan.

After all, Mu Huan became his apprentice through deception. He was reluctant to let her go because she had accompanied him for many years.

Nonetheless, Hai Rong still did not directly ask everything. He smiled. “I’m just a little curious because I heard Mu Ling mentioning Suyi. Huan’er, just forget it, you did not get to see her anyway. By the way, I am planning to attend the old master’s birthday feast since I’m not leaving yet. Do you know what the old master likes?”

Mu Huan’s heart was shaking.

Father once said that Suyi would return to attend the birthday feast. Therefore, she must not let her Master stay.

Her father had given her a task this time when she came to meet Hai Rong. She must persuade her master to leave Tian Shen Manor and never let him meet Suyi.

Actually, Mu Huan had always thought that Master would not abandon her even after he got to know about all these. However, many people would be attending Grandfather’s birthday feast.

That was why such a scandal must not be revealed at such times.

If other people knew about it, the Mu family’s reputation would be ruined!

“Master.” Mu Huan smiled. She held Hai Rong’s arm. “Aren’t you worried about those spirit herbs in the back hill? How can I trouble you for my grandfather’s birthday? Besides, you are very famous among people. I’m afraid that those people might come and bother you instead of congratulating my grandfather. Master, you always know that I decided to become your apprentice because I admire you. My father has never once thought of using your name to enhance the Mu family’s reputation. Furthermore, I will not allow such things to happen.”
