Chapter 254: Chapter 254: Unshirkable Responsibility

Originally, his speculation was nothing but wishful thinking on his part, with no evidence to back it up; he was just hoping for more ties between them...

Yan Sijue slightly closed his eyes, swallowing all his emotions, and gave Xiaoze an almost cruelly reassuring smile: "In any case, she’ll be fine, don’t worry."

Xiaoze nodded, then asked, puzzled: "But why did Uncle Jason and the other three leave City A?"

Yan Sijue raised an eyebrow slightly, but he quickly made sense of it.

Jason and the others were considered talents, and Qiao Yebai wouldn’t let them go. It must be that he did something to win them over.

Yan Sijue was well aware of Qiao Yebai’s methods. This person preferred to win hearts, making his subordinates utterly devoted, never resorting to coercion.

So at least it was certain that Jason and the others were not in danger.

"I’ll send someone to investigate, don’t worry," he reassured with a smile.

Seeing his Daddy’s calm gaze, Xiaoze’s initially restless heart settled down. No matter what, he believed his Daddy would not ignore Mommy’s safety, even considering his sake. So, since he said Mommy and the others were fine, they definitely would be.

Then, he thought about his Daddy being stuck in the mire. This succession of changes was clearly a meticulous trap set for his Daddy, step by step, link by link... The thought of the instigator made Xiaoze’s heart flutter.

His Daddy, all these years, really hasn’t had it easy...

Thinking of this, Xiaoze couldn’t help but speak: "Daddy, why don’t you go back to the hospital, I’ll take care of things at home."

Yan Sijue smiled faintly, his eyes carrying a trace of warmth.

"I’m fine."

Back then, he could quit drug addiction with remarkable willpower, and now even one tube of ****** wouldn’t harm him.

As long as he’s alive, he’ll get back everything he’s owed, piece by piece!

Mu Yiliang’s recovery was not going well.

After all, her foundation was not good, plus she had too many concerns weighing on her heart, making it impossible to rest peacefully.

She worried about Jason and the others, whether Xiaoze was safe in the Yan Family, and also... whether Yan Sijue was okay.

However, Qiao Yebai had been visiting frequently these days to talk with her.

"...You say, we have another sister?" Qiao Yebai occasionally asked about the Mu Family’s situation.

Mu Yiliang nodded lightly: "But we don’t have a good relationship, Mom spoils her and has made her somewhat arrogant."

Qiao Yebai squinted his eyes: "Living alone outside for so many years, they really didn’t care at all?"

Mu Yiliang hesitated for a moment: "...Before I was an adult, they would regularly send living expenses. After I divorced Yan Sijue, I completely lost contact with them."

"Such parents..." Qiao Yebai sneered.

"It’s not like that," Mu Yiliang smiled bitterly, "Brother, don’t misunderstand. Both Dad and Mom really miss you, especially Mom. The reason she resents me is because she blames me, thinking that I caused your death."

"But what does that have to do with you?" Qiao Yebai scoffed, "No matter what, such blame is foolish!"

"But I do bear undeniable responsibility..." Mu Yiliang paused for a moment but still said, "If I hadn’t insisted on you taking me out to play, we wouldn’t have encountered the kidnappers..."
