450: Chapter 450 Anxiety 450: Chapter 450 Anxiety “Shanshan was five when Ling’er died in a bizarre car accident.

At that time, there were rumors within the Group claiming that because Ling’er was so talented and deeply favored by my father, my father might pass the position of successor of the Group to me.

So, my elder brother had someone kill Ling’er.”

Hearing this, Lin Fei couldn’t help but frown.

“Do you just simply believe what your elder brother said?!”

Lin Fei felt that for such a significant matter, if it were him, he certainly wouldn’t take Mu Tiansheng’s word for it.

“Of course, I wouldn’t believe my brother’s word alone, but later on, my father confirmed it.

Ling’er’s death was indeed the doing of the Fang Family, as revenge for the embarrassment she caused them back then.

They also wanted to create discord within our Mu Family.

Although the Fang Family is a clan of Ancient Martial, it doesn’t mean they are beyond worldly concerns.

They have long coveted Mu Group.”

“Father worried that his business would be taken over by the Fang Family, so he especially instructed us brothers to work together unanimously to protect the family business.

He made us swear that in the end, no matter who becomes the successor of the Mu Family, the others must assist him with all their might.”

“The Fang Family’s background is too formidable; we can’t compare with them.

That is why I have always been afraid to tell Shanshan the truth.

She and Ling’er are too similar in temper; I fear what she might do if she knew.”

So that was the cause and effect of the matter.

After listening, Lin Fei took a deep breath.

Mu Tiancheng crushed the cigarette in his hand, his expression becoming somewhat time-worn.

“I had thought time would erase the hatred in Shanshan’s heart, but unexpectedly, she hasn’t let go even now.”

“Moreover, I never imagined that Mu Shaopeng would be so deranged as to actually want to kill Shanshan!”

At this point, Lin Fei immediately asked, “Dad, what do you plan to do about Mu Shaopeng?”

“I have already lost Ling’er; I absolutely can’t let Shanshan be in any danger, otherwise I would have no face to meet Ling’er in the underworld.”

Mu Tiancheng’s tone shifted from the passive attitude he had shown in front of Mu Shanshan to a fierce one.

“If Mu Shaopeng doesn’t learn to behave, I will make sure he pays the price.”

Lin Fei thought that he had some understanding of the Mu Family’s affairs, but now he had one doubt, so he asked Mu Tiancheng, “Dad, what do you think of your elder brother as a person?”

“Ever since I was a child, I’ve always admired my elder brother.

He is a person of capability, courage, and vision.

I truly never expected that he would have a son like Mu Shaopeng!”

Lin Fei’s doubts deepened upon hearing such high praise of Mu Tiancheng’s elder brother, “Then Dad, is your elder brother greedy for money?”

“Greedy for money?

Absolutely not, I know him; he is not that kind of person!”

Seeing Lin Fei’s peculiar expression, Mu Tiancheng couldn’t help but ask what was wrong.

“Actually, apart from that recording of Mu Shaopeng, Shanshan and I also discovered that many of the companies managed by Mu Tiansheng have records of tax evasion.

And this money, in the end, went into the hands of Mu Tiansheng, and his faction’s executives and shareholders.”

Mu Tiancheng looked at Lin Fei in disbelief, “Is this true?”

“Utterly true.”

Mu Tiancheng frowned and pondered for a long while before shaking his head firmly, saying, “No, I still can’t believe that my elder brother would do such a thing.”

In fact, after listening to Mu Tiancheng’s words, Lin Fei also began to doubt whether those tax evasion records were related to Mu Tiansheng.

The reason was nothing else; if Mu Tiancheng’s faith in his elder brother was not enough to convince Lin Fei, then considering the old Master Mu—so heroic and outstanding—trusted Mu Tiansheng and gave him a chance to compete for the succession, Lin Fei felt that Mu Tiansheng probably really wasn’t at fault.

If so, then the problem must lie with the people around Mu Tiansheng.
