C157 Suspect (1/2)

”Hello, why are you calling me?” Mu Ziyao impatiently picked up the phone.

She was telling Mu Xiaoxi stories and coaxing him to sleep, but Mu An kept calling her.

Mu Ziyao had even thought that there was a possibility that Mu An or something might have happened to him that required him to undergo a bone marrow surgery.

In order to not be criticized by others in the future, Mu Ziyao still picked up the phone. The person on the other end of the phone was about to call his parents when he suddenly stopped, Mu An quickly went over to the phone and calmed himself down: ”Ziyao, it's me.”

”I know it's you, why are you calling me?” Mu Ziyao really wanted to roll her eyes. How could she not know that it was him who had called?

”I just want to know how you're doing.” Mu An wanted to play the card of warmth first so that Mu Ziyao would not be so hostile towards them.

Mu Ziyao even suspected that the sun was rising from the west, but to his surprise, Mu An asked him about his recent progress.

”Thank you for Director Mu's concern. I haven't gone to see my mother yet, do you need me to find Lin Shumo for you to answer the phone?” When Mu Ziyao thought about Mu An's useless look, he knew that Mu An had a favor to ask of him, which is why he called him so kindly.

”No need, no need, I was just calling you. Ziyao, why are you saying this about me?” Mu An quickly let it go, if Lin Shumo knew about this, it would not be easy to deal with, and he even accused Mu Ziyao of biting on Lü Dongbin's dog and not recognizing his good intentions.

Because of Mu Xiaoxi's room, Mu Ziyao couldn't say those extremely unpleasant words in front of a child. Instead, he wanted to see what kind of medicine this old fox Mu An had up his sleeve.

”Director Mu still knows that you have two daughters. You, who didn't call me for 800 years, suddenly called me. What do you think?”

However, Mu An who was on the other end of the phone did not behave normally, and unexpectedly said with a tone of self-blame: ”It's because it's not good for me to be your father, and I don't care about you, I will change my mind in the future.”

”It's better not to. I'm afraid that I won't be able to take it. Director Mu, what do you have to do? Just say it quickly.” When Mu Ziyao heard this, goosebumps rose all over his body. No matter what kind of peace Mu An had in mind, he would never believe in this man.

”I really only called to take care of you. Yao Yao, it's been too hard for you to bring Xiaoxi along by yourself. It's all because of me, your father, that I haven't fulfilled my duty.” Mu An pretended to look very guilty, but his words had been splashed with cold water.

Mu Xiaoxi laid on the bed, listening to his mother and the man who was talking on the phone. Mu Xiaoxi, who was reading between the lines, already knew the general contents of the phone.

”Director Mu, this show of yours is over. If you have anything to say, just say that you don't want to waste Mommy and I's precious sleeping time. If you don't, we'll hang up.” Mu Xiaoxi could not bear to listen to this. He knew what he wanted to hear from Mu An, who was an old cunning fox.

It wasn't easy to get through to the phone and after hearing that they were going to hang up, the three people of the Mu Family started to panic. ”Don't, Xiaoxi, I actually have something to tell you.”

”Then tell me quickly.” Mu Ziyao sat on the bedside, looked at Mu Xiaoxi and said casually.

”It's like this. I want to return the assets your mother left you.”

Mu Ziyao suspected that there was something wrong with his ears, and asked in surprise, ”What? Am I hearing things? Boss Mu, did your brain get burnt? Mu Bingxian is your precious daughter. ”

”You didn't hear wrong, Yao Yao. I feel like I owe you a lot over the years, but because the company is currently managed by my brother Xiao Xian, I can only give you a portion of the shares.”

Hearing Mu An say that, Mu Ziyao felt like he was speaking a bit.
