Chapter 557: Chapter 555 The So-Called Truth!!_1

Witnessing this scene, everyone’s heart skipped a beat. If they hadn’t known that Na Ersi wouldn’t harm Mu Zisu, they would have screamed out loud!

Mu Yingchen understood and quickly grabbed Mu Zisu as he fell backwards. Na Ersi immediately moved to take Xiaoxiao from Mu Zisu’s arms, but unexpectedly, even in a state of unconsciousness, Mu Zisu’s hands tightly held Xiaoxiao, refusing to let go.

Na Ersi sighed heavily, "First, let’s help him onto the sofa..."

The stunned bystanders suddenly came to their senses. Pei Mojing and several bodyguards behind him promptly stepped forward, helping to lift and carry Mu Zisu and Xiaoxiao, who was in his arms, onto the sofa.

Only then could Na Ersi, with the help of the others, take Xiaoxiao from Mu Zisu’s arms...

"Yingchen... I need to take Xiaoxiao back..." Na Ersi gazed at Mu Yingchen, his expression aged and brimming with sorrow.

"Na Ersi..." Mu Yingchen felt a pang of guilt at the bottom of his heart, self-reproach filled him, yet he didn’t know what to say.

The responsibility for how things had developed to this point lay with them...

"Na Ersi... we’ll come with you..." Su Wanxia stepped forward, gazing sadly at Xiaoxiao in his arms.

Na Ersi sighed, "No need... Take good care of Yaoyao..."

--

Na Ersi left with Xiaoxiao... yet he could not take away the sorrow engraved in their hearts...

A gloom settled over the Mu Family, the death of Xiaoxiao was unbelievable to everyone!

But the reality was harsh, Na Ersi took away a lifeless body...

Mu Zisu did not remain unconscious for long; after only half an hour, he suddenly awoke!

Seeing his arms stained with blood and empty, he frantically searched every corner of the Mu Family’s residence, incessantly murmuring Xiaoxiao’s name...

Everyone couldn’t help but have tears well in their eyes at the sight of Mu Zisu in such pain, filling them with heartache, pity, and a profound sadness...

That night, unable to find Xiaoxiao, Mu Zisu clung to Su Wanxia like a child and wept aloud...

He cried in agony, cried until he felt life was not worth living, cried with complete despair...

That night, everyone in the Mu Family couldn’t help but have tears in their eyes, shed in sorrow...

For Xiaoxiao, for Mu Zisu, and even more for the tragic end of their love story...

After Mu Zisu finally collapsed from exhaustion and was taken to the infirmary, Su Wanxia stayed behind to look after him, while Mu Yingchen immediately gathered everyone who was present at the scene of the incident.

After hearing the detailed accounts from several of Mu Zisu’s close associates, Mu Yingchen’s first conclusion was that there was a traitor among them.

Otherwise, those people wouldn’t have known their schedule and location so precisely and planned so meticulously!

Although they had captured two members of the assassination team, they had yet to extract any information from their lips.

The wait was long; winter nights are exceedingly long, and for those sleepless through the night, the wait was an even more unbearable torture, until the first light of dawn, when all the information was finally coerced out of the two assassins.

The mastermind, the planner, the accomplices, the assassins, and even the supposed traitor—all had been forcefully interrogated...

It was clear that Mu Yingchen had resorted to ruthless means, otherwise, how could these well-trained, fearless killers reveal every detail of their operation!

The truth, as it is known, often shocks everyone.

The mastermind behind the entire assassination turned out to be Ding Nianzi, who had vanished without a trace twenty years ago, and the LW Organization, which had conflicts with the Qinglong Association!

After Ding Nianzi was destroyed by the Black Wolf Gang, there had been no news of her, and Mu Yingchen did not bother to check on her whereabouts because it was insignificant. However, to his surprise, after so many years, she returned with a vengeance and even managed to establish connections with LW.

What’s even more shocking was that the so-called mole turned out to be Pei Mojing!

He actually did have the micro tracking device that the assassination team mentioned...

With this device on his person, everything was explained...

The people around Mu Zisu were carefully selected and never picked up halfway, so they had no opportunity. But Pei Mojing was an exception because he was the one Mu Zixuan liked...

And he, Mu Zisu, had indeed never doubted him...

Ding Nianzi and LW had figured out the relationship between Pei Mojing and them, so they went to Pei Haolin, who had always wanted to covertly deal with him, and had Pei Haolin place the tracking device on Pei Mojing. Pei Mojing would definitely be with Mu Zixuan, who would surely be with Mu Zisu, which is how they were able to pinpoint Mu Zisu’s exact location.

Mu Yingchen also had someone ask them why they were so sure that Pei Mojing would return to the Mu Family with Mu Zixuan.

Yet they said that the likelihood was very high on the day of the birthday. If Pei Mojing hadn’t gone back with them to the Mu Family, they would still continue to look for opportunities. There would always be a time when Pei Mojing and Mu Zixuan were together. Even if they couldn’t kill Mu Zisu, killing Mu Zixuan would still be worth it, because their mission was to strike at the Mu Family. It didn’t matter who died from the Mu Family!

Mu Yingchen shook his head and sighed. They had planned this matter for too long, leaving him unprepared to defend against it.

In the end, the catalyst for the events still had to be blamed on himself. If none of those things had happened in the past, today’s tragedy wouldn’t have occurred...

Pei Mojing never expected that he would have a tracking device on him. It was only when he saw the device that he suddenly remembered why he had so coincidentally run into Qiao Xueren and Pei Tianzi before he left the villa!

It was Pei Tianzi who had secretly slipped it into his pocket while hugging him off guard...

He closed his eyes helplessly. Despite all his calculations, he blamed himself for today’s tragedy!

Mu Zixuan’s eyes reddened as she stared intently at Pei Mojing with boundless despair in her heart...

Xiaoxiao died... It was her fault...

And there was no longer any possibility between her and Pei Mojing...

She and he—were finished...

--

Within an ancient and solemn building, walls were engraved with long-standing and bizarre figures, utterly eerie, causing anyone who glanced at them to shudder with fear!

Sunlight pierced through wooden windows, casting rays across the room, bringing a trace of vitality to this suspense-filled interior...

On the meditation cushions of the main hall, an elderly long-haired figure was seated cross-legged. His hair was long, mixed with black and white strands, and his hair was neatly bundled at the back of his head with a dark green accessory, exuding both melancholy and mystique.

His face was heavily wrinkled, resembling the bark of a withered tree, yet his eyes were piercingly sharp and shrouded in darkness, radiating an involuntary awe while simultaneously evoking a chill...

"Father... Please save Xiaoxiao..."

A sorrowful and helpless voice arose, breaking the deadly silence of the room...

The elderly man’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and after a long time, he sighed helplessly, as if lamenting the inexorable impermanence of worldly affairs...
