Chapter 321: 237

Mu Lin raised her eyebrows, but didn’t say much; after all, she quite liked that place. It was spacious enough for Qiaozi to have room to move around.

Early the next morning, after saying hello to Mo Yinfan, Mu Lin once again went to the Hong Family home. By the time she arrived, Hong Da was already soaked and his whole body was red, heated like a steaming kettle.

After the acupuncture, Hong Boyuan came over to Mu Lin, looking deeply troubled. He didn’t even have the energy to interact with Qiaozi as usual.

"What’s the matter?" Mu Lin asked casually, putting away her silver needles.

Hong Boyuan looked at Mu Lin and sighed slowly, "Actually, it’s nothing much, just that one of my brothers got into some trouble." He had warned him to stay away from certain people, but he never listened.

"You’re talking about Xiao Feng," Mu Lin said.

"How do you know?" Hong Boyuan was surprised, as far as he knew, he had never mentioned this name in front of Mu Lin before.

Mu Lin: "Qiaozi told me." This was the truth.

"Qiaozi?" Hong Boyuan was first startled, then looking at Qiaozi and Mu Lin, he became extremely surprised, "Qiaozi can talk!" Has it become a spirit?

Qiaozi looked at him disdainfully, full of contempt.

It’s not a parrot.

Mu Lin laughed, "You can ask Qiaozi if it can talk." This man’s imagination seems quite active.

Hong Boyuan immediately turned to Qiaozi, "Qiaozi, say something for me to hear."

Qiaozi looked at him like he was an idiot, "Aguda..." it roared cooperatively.

Hong Boyuan: "Um, it seems... this isn’t talking, right?" He looked a bit puzzled, why does he feel like it’s being obedient? The next moment, as if he finally understood something, Hong Boyuan looked at Mu Lin cautiously, "Mu Lin, don’t tell me, only you can understand what Qiaozi said?" This is just too...

Mu Lin nodded, "Just now Qiaozi said, ’idiot.’" This man is indeed quite slow.

"No way." Hong Boyuan sat down on the ground without hesitation, "So everything I said to Qiaozi before..." Looking up at Mu Lin, "You didn’t overhear it all, did you?" If she did, that meant even his embarrassing moments were thoroughly exposed to her; really, that was too embarrassing.

In the face of Hong Boyuan’s overwhelming anticipation, Mu Lin cryptically nodded, "Basically, I should know it all." Unless Qiaozi was hiding something from her, but that was unlikely.

Hong Boyuan was immediately deflated.

As expected!

He sighed; anyway, it was already known. What else could he do? He could only hope that Mu Lin would forget all about his embarrassment.

On the side, the people of the Hong Family were happy to see the interaction between Mu Lin and Hong Boyuan. They were older and didn’t know how to interact with a young person like Mu Lin, but Boyuan was different. Looking at him, they felt that Mu Lin didn’t seem to dislike him.

At least, when facing Boyuan, they realized that her interaction was different from when she talked to them. Even her gaze was different, and her temper seemed a bit more normal.

Mu Lin wondered, was her temper really that abnormal?

...

Rising from the ground, Hong Boyuan straightened his body and continued speaking slowly, as if he was confiding in Mu Lin. After all, she knew everything, things she should and shouldn’t know.

"Xiao Feng was put in the police station the day before yesterday. I heard from Grandpa Xiao that he had gone there himself but couldn’t get him out. It seemed like Grandpa Xiao said that they had offended someone they shouldn’t have. The higher-ups said they were to stay in for ten days to a half month for ’profound education.’

Not only Xiao Feng, but he also heard that three others were taken in as well. Their families also tried to get them out but received the same answer – the station didn’t dare to release them.

Hong Boyuan sighed slowly, continuing: "I have told Xiao Feng many times to stay away from those people, but he just wouldn’t listen. Now he’s caused trouble and even made Old Man Xiao lose face. Ignoring the wisdom of the elders can lead to misfortune." He hoped Xiao Feng would learn his lesson from this experience. Still, he was a little worried. After all, staying in a police station or a jail for that long would be tormenting. They didn’t know who they had offended.

Sigh... another heavy sigh.

"Hmm, he definitely needs some ’profound education.’" Hearing this, Mu Lin nodded. Maybe Xiao Feng would gain some clarity when the time comes.

"Mu Lin, what did you just say?" Hong Boyuan looked at Mu Lin in confusion.

"Nothing," Mu Lin smiled, apparently not intending to elaborate further. However, she did ask, "You just said it was his grandfather who went to pick him up?" It seemed that beside Grandpa Xiao in the Xiao Family, nobody else cared about Xiao Feng. Even the elders had to make the move personally, others were probably not available.

Laughing... Each mistake made by the adult was forcing a child to bear all the consequences. This was truly despicable.

What Mu Lin referred to was Xiao Feng’s father.

Upon hearing Mu Lin’s words, Hong Boyuan nodded and sneered coldly, "If it weren’t for Grandpa Xiao, even if Xiao Feng died in jail, nobody would care." He hardly liked anyone in the Xiao Family, especially Xiao Feng’s despicable father, that woman and her two sons and daughters. They didn’t stop tormenting and framing Xiao Feng since their childhood.

Xiao Feng became what he is today because they had harmed him.
