The entire room was pitch black. Mu Zhishen had pulled all the curtains in the bedroom shut.

Thanks to Gong Siming's keen senses, he was able to determine his position through Mu Zhishen's voice.

Gong Siming didn't trust Mu Zhishen that much, as his entire body was in a state of vigilance.

Until he heard the sound of the curtains, the light outside slowly illuminated every corner of the room.

Mu Zhishen, who was standing in front of the window, was so skinny that he looked like a normal person.

In just a few days, Mu Zhishen had fallen to this stage.

However, Gong Siming didn't sympathize with him, he only felt that it was a bit strange, what kind of change could cause a ruthless and heartless person to fall into such a state.

"We parted on bad terms during the previous negotiation. This time, we should have a good talk." Gong Siming sat on the chair in front of Mu Zhishen's window.

Mu Zhishen turned his head and slowly sat in front of Gong Siming.

When Gong Siming saw Mu Zhishen's face, he was completely stunned.

A few days ago, he saw Mu Zhishen dressed like a virgin, but now, Mu Zhishen looked like a dying person.

His eye sockets were sunken in, his eyes lifeless, and his face dark, making him look like a zombie from a foreign movie.

"Gong Siming, can I ask you a question?" Mu Zhishen's tone was extremely calm, but Gong Siming was unable to reject it.

"Sure," Gong Siming replied very straightforwardly.

Hearing Gong Siming's answer, Mu Zhishen's expression became extremely nervous, "Why did you let me go? Please tell me the truth. "

Not expecting Mu Zhishen to ask this question, Gong Siming fell into deep thought for a moment.

Why would they let Mu Zhishen go? Gong Siming had never thought of this.

"It can't be because I have Si Wan's photo. When you released the wanted poster, all the photos in my hand had already been destroyed, let alone my cooperation with Muye. You have never been coerced by anyone." Mu Zhishen was telling the truth.

"You know me quite well." Gong Siming hated the feeling of being seen through the most. His voice had become extremely cold, and there was even a hint of threatening aura mixed within.

Mu Zhishen did not speak anymore, and calmly waited for Gong Siming's reply.

"It's because I saw Si Wan's shadow in Mu Ye's eyes. She had the same pure eyes as Si Wan, and such a person would not take the initiative to harm others. Moreover, she had been helping me the entire time, so I had no reason not to agree to her only request, which is to let you live."

While Gong Siming was speaking, Mu Zhishen had been staring at him, and from Gong Siming's gaze, it could be seen that what he said was the truth.

Suddenly, Mu Zhishen laughed, although on his face the smile looked somewhat sinister, but it was the most genuine and happiest of smiles.

"Do you know why I like Si Wan?" Mu Zhishen laughed and said, "It's because her eyes are too similar to Mu Ye's. This is also the reason why I have never thought that she is Mu Ye despite seeing Little Yu so many times. Her eyes are not clean."

Looks like Mu Zhishen already knew that Mu Ye was Mu Yeyu, then on the day of Hua Er's wedding, Mu Zhishen did not go for Si Wan, but for Mu Yeyu.

An idea that Gong Siming thought was abnormal popped up in his heart. The person Mu Zhishen had always loved was his sister, Mu Ye.

Although he had his doubts, Gong Siming still listened calmly to Mu Zhishen's story.

"When Muye appeared, he was in my little brother's identity. At that time, I didn't even know that she was a girl, but when I saw her pair of eyes, they were clean and bright. This is something that Mu Family definitely doesn't have."

Hearing Mu Zhishen's words, Gong Siming was confused. The Mu Family was really messy, and why would a girl pretend to be a boy?

"From that time on, I felt that the entire world had been lighted up, but since then, our old man was very powerful, we were still young, and didn't understand any feelings, so he killed all of my thoughts in the cradle. He separated us, and even found a crime that didn't exist, which made me stay in the water prison for three days and three nights.

"I never thought that she would be Si Haoyuan's daughter and even become your wife. This is how we are destined to become enemies in the future."

"I am not interested in your love affairs. You better say something meaningful," Gong Siming interrupted Mu Zhishen.

Seeing the confusion in Gong Siming's eyes, Mu Zhishen slowly said, "Don't be in such a hurry, what I've said will all be useful to you."

From the looks of it, Gong Siming's words were useless.

"I took Si Haoyuan away from the Feng Family Village, but I didn't kill him and instead gave him to the old man. That year, when you were attacked, I also sent people to kill you, and I was the one who ordered Feng Ling to kill me the entire time, but I wasn't the one who sent Feng Ling to kill Si Wan, and even though I didn't send anyone to kill Su Zheng, there was still the shadow of Mu Ye on Si Wan's body. I only wanted to think of her, but I never really thought of destroying her."

There was too much information inside, Mu Zhishen did not need to lie, which meant that other than Mu Zhishen, there was someone else.

"I truly love Muye, but I also know that all of this is impossible. I can't accept her being with others, but I also can't accept others hurting her, even her shadow can't!"

Hearing Mu Zhishen's declaration of love, Gong Siming could not help but frown.

"I don't want to evaluate your feelings. You only need to tell me who the person behind you is!" Gong Siming said indifferently.

"I have already told you the answer, Gong Siming, you can leave now!" Mu Zhishen stood up and pressed the button to close the curtains.

Earlier, Mu Zhishen did not say who the mastermind was, and asked Gong Siming to find out for himself.

People of this Mu Family liked to beat around the bush and answer difficult questions for others.

Gong Siming did not say anything else. In any case, he had already memorized what Mu Zhishen had said just now.

After exiting Mu Zhishen's room, Gong Siming walked downstairs. Chu Xing immediately stood up and walked in front of Gong Siming.

"Don't worry, I just heard a story from him. There were no conflicts." Gong Siming uncharacteristically explained to Chu Xing.

There were still Si Wan and the Xin’er at home waiting for him. After Gong Siming finished speaking, he immediately left the Mu Family.

There were some feelings that, even though they knew it was impossible for it to come to an end, there were still people who put their lives at stake. Love that was not allowed was destined to end in a tragedy.

With regards to Mu Zhishen, even Muye did not know whether he should sympathize or reprimand him.

Watching Gong Siming leave, Chu Xing took out her phone and sent an anonymous message.

"As you expected, what should be the next step?"
