39 HE WAS A SHAM (2/2)
His harsh treatment shocked everyone watching the commotion.
Mu Ruochen was known for being gentle and a doting grandfather. But behind those sheep's skin, his wolf-like attitude was hidden. Only those servants working under the Mu clan for a long time now was privy to this matter.
Only a few knew this temper of him, and Yanyan was not an exception. She had been working on the Mu clan residence for as long as she could remember. She basically grew up as one of the clan's loyal servants, just like her parents.
The memory of her mother being pummeled on the verge of death was still fresh on her mind as if it just happened yesterday. She was still suffering from nightmares every night because of that incident.
Yanyan was not sure what exactly happened that night. But one thing she knew, was that her mother was accused of helping someone escaped.
Her mom's dying wish was haunting her all throughout her life. She could still hear her whenever she tried to close her eyes.
”You have to stay here and take good care of our young miss. Make sure that-----”
Her mother said before she closed her eyes, never to open again. The hand of the mother that was trying to reach her daughter's face for the last time fall on the ground. Motionless. Lifeless.
Mu Ruochen was not around that time, or maybe she just cannot remember if he was there or not. But Yanyan was certain that Mu Ruochen knew all about that beating and pummeling that night but he never interfered nor justify her mother's death.
So she grew up fearing the head of the Mu clan. Deep in her heart, she knew that the smiling and gentle face of their head clan was too good to be true.
After all, how could a kind-hearted man sustain power and rise above the ranks and establish a strong foothold for a long time???
Many was deceived by Mu Ruochen's facade but Yanyan knew him all along. She knew he was a sham.
