Chapter 1049: Continue To Coax Me (1)

Zhong Guangping was always careful in his dealings. Right now, his daughter’s wellbeing was at stake. He would obviously not believe her just because she was the mistress of the Mo family. He had checked the facts.

Now that Zheng Lin said that Gu Qingyao was not going to bother with them, what would happen to his daughter?

Zhong Guangping panicked!

Old Master Zhong’s expression also changed.

Zhong Guangping said urgently, “Butler, Butler, quick, quick, quick, prepare some gifts. I’m going to the Mo house now.”

Zhong Guangping hurried to prepare the gifts. Only then did Old Master Zhong realize what had happened. He had a completely different view of Zheng Lin now.

She was a liability.

Old Master Zhong looked at Mu Mu and said in a fatherly manner, “Mu Mu! This… this is a misunderstanding. When you get back, please explain to your aunt. We… we Zhongs will always be grateful to her for saving Yuan Yuan. We are very grateful. This… we have never thought that Yuan Yuan was being kept at the Chen house against her will!”

“Please intercede for us when you get back. Yuan Yuan is innocent. She needs treatment. Surely… surely, she mustn’t be implicated?”

“I’m going to the Mo house now to apologize. Mu Mu, please help Yuan Yuan.”

The other Zhong family members had also started to plead with Mu Mu. They were all concerned about Zhong Bingyuan’s condition. They also did not want to offend the Mo family.

Mu Mu could tell which way the wind was blowing. So he nodded in agreement and went back to the Mo house first.

Old Master Zhong angrily shut Zheng Lin in her room, then he and Zhong Guangping carried their gifts and went to the Mo house to apologize.

They also brought Zhong Bingyuan along. They dropped by the Chen house first, then went to the Mo house.

By this time, Gu Qingyao and the others were home. Mu Mu had reached home and told Gu Qingyao everything.

Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan exchanged glances. They were not very surprised by the Zhong family’s reaction.

Mu Mu said, “Aunt, based on my observations, besides Mrs Zheng, the rest of the family seems quite normal, and they really dote on Yuan Yuan. I just feel that Madam Zheng is mentally unstable.”

Mu Mu told them everything he had seen in the Zhong house.

Gu Qingyao was rather surprised. “This… are you sure she’s really mentally unstable?”

Mu Mu analyzed it and said, “She’s possibly mentally unstable and she’s possibly… selfish.

“She seems to be raising her daughter based on the image she crafted for her in her mind. I suppose she thinks a rich young lady should act in a certain way, so she wants to train Yuan Yuan to be like that. She doesn’t consider Yuan Yuan’s feelings at all. She thinks that Yuan Yuan must obey her and that everything she does is for Yuan Yuan’s good.”

Gu Qingyao smiled and did not say anything.

She had encountered such people in her previous life. Not only among her patients but among others in her life.

Mu Mu could not understand Gu Qingyao’s mysterious smile. “Aunt, why are you smiling?”

Mo Beihan said, “Your aunt probably knows what Zheng Lin is like. Mu Mu, you are very intelligent, but you haven’t met many people, so you cannot understand a situation like this.”

“I think! That Zhong Bingyuan will probably have a hard time in the future.”

Mu Mu frowned. “Uncle, please explain! What is going on?”

Mo Beihan said, “Some people are utterly selfish. They’re perverted, but they look like normal people. It’s very likely that Zheng Lin is like that..”
