Chapter 560: Chapter 558 I’ll wait for her to come back_1

Mu Zixuan looked at Mu Yingchen with a resolute gaze, as if she had already made up her mind...

Mu Yingchen felt helpless, "Shanshan... it’s not your fault, the mistake lies with us... We planted the seeds of this disaster..." He never imagined that Ding Nianzi would be so bold! What he resented was that they hadn’t caught them this time, but once he found their hideout, he would show no mercy!

Mu Zixuan’s lips were pale. "Dad... it’s my fault, all my fault. If it wasn’t for my relationship with Pei Mojing, they wouldn’t have found the opportunity..." If they hadn’t found the opportunity that night, Xiaoxiao wouldn’t have died, and Yaoyao wouldn’t be in so much pain...

Mu Yingchen sighed. If they were to truly investigate whose fault it was, it involved too much, but what was done couldn’t be undone...

"Shanshan... we understand you, Yaoyao understands you. If you like Pei Mojing, we won’t object, understand?" Mu Yingchen looked at Mu Zixuan seriously.

Yaoyao had already lost Xiaoxiao, and he didn’t want Shanshan to miss her chance at happiness as well...

"I’ve already broken up with him... Dad, I want to go to England..." Mu Zixuan said determinedly.

Mu Yingchen sighed heavily...

"Alright... come back after a year with Qiqi..." This was Mu Yingchen’s biggest concession. After a year, it would be time for Qiqi to return to the country. By then, it would be just right for the two of them to come back together, and perhaps by that time, some of her self-blame and guilt would have faded.

"You are not allowed to go..." An indifferent voice suddenly sounded from behind them.

Mu Yingchen and Mu Zixuan immediately turned their heads to look.

Mu Zisu, who had locked himself in his room for an entire month, had actually stepped out of his room and come downstairs.

He looked very disheveled, his face somewhat pale, perhaps because he hadn’t seen sunlight for too long, and there was a dark aura about him.

But even so, he couldn’t hide the noble quality and unique detached indifference ingrained in his bones.

"Brother..." Mu Zixuan suddenly stood up from the sofa, her gloomy eyes finally showing a glimmer of joy.

Seeing Mu Zisu, a warm color also rose in the depths of Mu Yingchen’s eyes.

Su Wanxia walked out from behind Mu Zisu, looking at Mu Zixuan helplessly, "Shanshan... do you really have to walk the same old path as your mother and father?"

She and Mu Yingchen had been through too many separations and reunions, wasted too much time, and missed too much happiness, so she didn’t want Shanshan to become another her...

Mu Zixuan’s pupils contracted, her eyes full of pain...

She couldn’t persuade herself; she didn’t have the courage to be with Pei Mojing again; she was wracked with guilt...

"Mom... I’m not going to walk the same old path as you and dad, I just want to stay in England for a while, dad has already agreed, it’s only a year, not eight or ten years, and I’ll come back with Qiqi after a year..."

Mu Zisu looked at the determination on Mu Zixuan’s face, his eyes revealing an unclear emotion. He knew the reason for Shanshan’s decision, but he didn’t need her to do this—

"When I say you’re not allowed, you’re not allowed! Next March, you will inherit Chenxia International..."

Chenxia International was formed from a merger between the Su Family business and Mingtian Enterprise, a subsidiary of the Mu Group, both primarily involved in construction. After Su’s father grew older, he handed over Su Family business to Su Wanxia, and thereby, Chenxia International was created—

Mu Zixuan looked at Mu Zisu with teary eyes—

Mu Zisu also looked back at her with an indisputable gaze.

"Okay... let’s settle it this way..." Su Wanxia spoke up timely; she actually didn’t want Shanshan to go to England now, even if it was just for a year. It wasn’t particularly long nor short, but at this moment, her heart was at its most sorrowful.

As the tears finally slid down silently from the corners of Mu Zixuan’s eyes, she knew they meant well for her. But since she was the root of the tragedy, how could she possibly watch Yaoyao suffer while being with Pei Mojing?

She couldn’t do it!

Moreover, she and Pei Mojing had already broken up...

"I’ve decided to leave tomorrow, just treat it as giving me a year of vacation, I want to get some fresh air..."

Mu Yingchen looked at the deadlock among the three and sighed. Then he firmly said, "If you don’t come back with Qiqi after a year, I’ll tie you up and bring you back if I have to..."

Mu Zixuan went to England, and it was Mu Zisu who saw her off. Before boarding the plane, Mu Zixuan hesitated for a long time before mustering the courage to say something to Mu Zisu, "Brother... When Qiqi and I return, let’s go see Xiaoxiao together, okay?" Forgive her, she didn’t have the courage to see Xiaoxiao now...

Mu Zisu’s eyes suddenly contracted, and after that, he nodded and uttered faintly one word: "Okay..."

Suddenly, Mu Zixuan reached out and hugged Mu Zisu, her voice soft, "Brother... I’m sorry..."

This apology was something Mu Zixuan had wanted to say to him for a long time, and today, she finally spoke those three words.

Mu Zisu gently patted her back, "I don’t blame you..."

Mu Zixuan’s eyes reddened as she forced a smile, knowing no matter how big of a mistake she made, he would never blame her, but this time, she couldn’t overcome the hurdle in her heart...

As Mu Zixuan’s figure disappeared from view, someone suddenly approached from behind Mu Zisu...

"Why didn’t you meet her..." Mu Zisu didn’t turn around.

He knew it was Pei Mojing; he was the one who had informed him...

Pei Mojing took two steps forward, coming beside him, "I don’t want to add to her burdens. I’ll wait for her to come back, or maybe I’ll quietly visit her..."

Mu Zisu’s gaze dropped sorrowfully; the person he was waiting for would never return...

Upon seeing the expression on Mu Zisu’s face, Pei Mojing was suddenly filled with guilt.

"I know saying sorry is of no help now, but I still need to say it to you -- I’m sorry..."

Mu Zisu took a deep breath: "When you have a chance... tell it to her..." Mu Zisu walked away after saying that.

"I’ll go with you when you decide to see her," Pei Mojing called out to him from behind. If possible, he would have already wanted to say sorry to Xiaoxiao, but he knew Xiaoxiao wasn’t here.

Mu Zisu’s upright figure came to a sudden halt, and after a moment, he quietly uttered three words: "I don’t know..." With that, he stepped away without hesitation.

He didn’t know when he would see her; he clearly knew he should have visited her long ago, but he harbored a fantasy that she had simply returned to her hometown with her father. Perhaps, one day, she would be standing at the top of the stairs as she did the first time, smiling brightly at him as he came home from work...

Xiaoxiao... Why? Why haven’t you appeared in my dreams for even once in this past month and two days?

Don’t you know that every time I close my eyes, I see your pale, nearly translucent face...
