Chapter 975 This Old Kid
"Do you think I don"t know you?" Mu Min sighed.
"At first, I suspected you. When I calmed down, I knew that I had wronged you, but I couldn"t change anything. I could only watch as you were controlled by someone. Actually, she came to look for me back then."
She was referring to Madam Yunqing.
"She gave me two choices. Either I give up on you or the Mu family. I knew that she loved you and wouldn"t do anything to you, so I chose the Mu family." After giving up on Chu Yi, she felt like a knife was twisting in her heart. In the end, she even wanted to commit suicide. Later on, it was the old man who talked her out of it.
"Yi, I know this is a selfish choice, but I-"
Tears streamed down Mu Min"s face. Chu Yi quickly covered her red lips and said dotingly with a deep gaze, "I understand your choice. I don"t blame you. Actually, I was the one who caused this entire matter. The Mu family was implicated by me. I should be the one who deserves to die, but I don"t dare to die. The fear of not being able to see you scares me."
Mu Min cried even harder. She hugged Chu Yi"s waist tightly. "Why are you so stupid? I"ve never blamed you. I just hate that I don"t have the ability to save you…"
Chu Yi pulled her into his arms and rested his chin on the top of her head. He smiled happily. "Fortunately, I waited for you. Min, thank you for still being here!"
Qin Xi and Han Shi were not sentimental people, but when they saw them hugging each other, their eyes teared up a little.
"Cough, cough!"
At this moment, a deep cough was heard. The four of them looked over and saw an energetic old man looking at Chu Yi with his hands behind his back.
This person was Mu Tianzheng.
Chu Yi gently let go of Mu Min and held her hand. He came to Mu Tianzheng and bowed respectfully. "Father-in-law, I"m sorry to come back so late. Thank you for taking care of Min and Xi for me all these years."
Mu Tianzheng glanced at him and snorted. "One of them is my daughter, and the other is my granddaughter. You don"t have to thank me for taking care of them. It"s my job."
The old man narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "If I remember correctly, you and Min are already divorced, right? Why are you still here?"
Hearing the old man"s sarcastic words, Mu Min said sulkily, "Dad, what are you talking about? It"s not easy for Yi to come back. Can"t you say something nice?"
Mu Tianzheng placed his hands behind his back and sneered. "You want to hear something nice? No way. Back then, you were on the verge of death for this man. I almost lost you. You still want to hear something nice? It"s already good enough that I didn"t make him kneel!"
With a thud, everyone was shocked to see that Chu Yi was already kneeling in front of Mu Tianzheng. His expression was filled with guilt and self-blame. "Dad, I"m sorry. I didn"t take good care of Min and Xi and let them suffer with me. Please give me another chance. I"ll treat them well for the rest of my life. If such a thing happens again, I"ll protect them even if I have to die…"
"Yi, get up quickly. Dad doesn"t blame you." Mu Min was worried and wanted to pull Chu Yi up. Chu Yi looked up and smiled at her. "Min, you don"t have to feel sorry for me. I know Dad only did this to test me. He doesn"t really want to make things difficult for me. If he wanted to make things difficult for me, I"m afraid he would have kicked me out by now."
Mu Tianzheng was speechless. This old kid was cunning and glib-tongued. Who wanted to test him? He really wanted to kick him out, okay?
