Chapter 938 - Mu Ling was Beaten Up IV

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mu Ling finally understood everything.

He knew that all the explanations were useless at this moment, and now he even regretted requesting Mu Huan to bring Hai Rong back in the first place.

Hai Rong had not only failed to cure the old master’s illness but had also… exposed all of the Mu family’s lies to the public.

This time, the Mu family had completely lost him.

Suddenly, Mu Ling’s eyes lit up as he realized something.

No, the Mu family would not lose Hai Rong’s support! As long as Suyi was willing to forgive him, Hai Rong would certainly be able to forgive him!

“Grandmaster Hai Rong.” Gu Shi stood up with a smile, his sharp eyes glanced at the Mu family members who had been silent since just now. “May I know what is going on?”

This question was the most anticipated by the rest of the people who were wondering about the same thing.

Especially the group of people who had been trying to clarify their relationship with Feng Ruqing just now, they wanted to know what was the cause of the sudden bad blood between Hai Rong and the Mu family.

“Twenty years ago, I had a spirit herb that was about to wither. Back then, Lady Suyi had given me a drop of golden blood, which had helped me save that spirit herb.” Hai Rong smiled and continued to explain, “We found out that we had great chemistry after talking to each other and it had blossomed into a close friendship.

“Since then, every few months, she would come to my mountain for a few days’ stays to discuss and do research on medicines with me. She had also helped me to solve some problems. I owe her a favor, and promised her a condition as well.”

Grandmaster Hai Rong lived remotely in the mountains and rarely left his place.

Moreover, Suyi’s personality pleased him and brought some joy into his life after years of loneliness. He finally got someone to accompany him and discuss medicine, which made him really contented so he treated her like his own daughter.

However, Suyi had suddenly disappeared and never showed up again.

“Until one day, Mu Ling came to see me with Mu Huan. He had requested me to accept Mu Huan as my apprentice in exchange for the favor that I owed Suyi. The funniest thing was, I had never asked for Suyi’s name despite knowing her for a long time. I always thought that she and Mu Ling were siblings!”

“Until I went down from the mountain and met Chen Qingyan. She addressed Suyi as her sister. If they were really siblings, then Chen Qingyan would not have addressed Suyi as her sister. After questioning for some time, Chen Qingyan and Mu Ling claimed that Suyi was their distant cousin sister.

“Hahaha, what a joke of a distant cousin sister! Back then, I did not know that the young lady was actually Lady Suyi from the Mu family. A concubine has chased away the legal wife and tricked me to return Suyi’s favor in order to set the path for her daughter’s future!”

Silence filled the air.

The shocking revelation by Hai Rong was totally unexpected and it was far more interesting than drama!

Perhaps before tonight, everyone had thought that although Chen Qingyan was just a concubine, she was gentle and considerate and was willing to treat her husband’s son as her own. She had maintained a good character and taken good care of the family.

For many years, she had taken care of the old master without complaint and regrets. Despite being scolded and beaten, she had never said anything.

But now… this shocking news was enough to make everyone abandon their prior beliefs, leaving everyone shocked and unable to extricate themselves!

Mu Ling and Chen Qingyan’s shamelessness was way over the boundary.

How could they take advantage of someone’s kindness to give Mu Huan a better future?

No matter how good Mu Huan was, she was just a concubine’s daughter.

How could Mu Ling do this?

No wonder Lady Mu and Nan Xian had left the Mu family without a second thought. The biased treatment was far too much for one to bear!

At this moment, Chen Qingyan could feel the icy cold stares from everyone. She felt extremely exposed and humiliated.
