Chapter 96: Chapter 96 Guilt

His actions were exceptionally gentle. In over a month of marriage, as his wife, this was the first time this man had been so attentive and considerate. Mu Yiliang looked at his usual calm and elegant expression, and, suddenly, a soft spot in her heart became uncontrollably tender.

She didn’t know whether he was just saying things for appearance’s sake or if he genuinely felt that way.

But no matter which it was, a trace of guilt had already settled in her heart.

However, things had come to this point, and she could only continue to play her part in this charade.

"It’s not your fault... it’s all me... too careless..." Mu Yiliang lowered her eyes, sobbing softly, "I’m sorry for you..."

Yan Sijue glanced at her indifferently, then suddenly turned around to face Old Sir Yan, "Grandfather, I will take care of this. I’ll take Yiliang back first."

Old Sir Yan pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Alright. I’m waiting for you to give me an explanation."

"Hehe, I wonder what Sijue plans to do?" Yan Yaoting, unwilling to let him off so easily, spoke coldly, "The alliance with the Mu Family is very important. You wouldn’t want to give that up, would you?"

Yan Yaoting was afraid that Yan Sijue would really endure the humiliation, so he said this to provoke him.

"No need to worry, big brother," Yan Sijue said, gripping Mu Yiliang’s wrist as they left the Yan Family Mansion.

As they watched them leave, the atmosphere in the hall became somewhat strange.

The Old Man’s eyes brightened, "Yaohao, is everything clear?"

Yan Yaohao answered softly, "Yes, Grandfather."

"Are you sure it was that little girl who did it?" The Old Man pondered aloud.

"No mistake." Yan Yaohao smiled, "This girl is somewhat clever. With her parents protecting her and knowing how much we value our relationship with the Mu Family, she’s confident no one can really do anything to her. Moreover, if Sijue can’t handle this matter and divorces Yiliang, he might very well have to marry her."

Ranked fourth among the brothers, Yan Yaohao didn’t oversee any major industries like Yan Yaoting did, but he had Old Sir Yan’s trust, and for many matters, the Old Man would have him investigate.

As for Mu Yixun’s little tricks, how could they possibly deceive these savvy individuals?

After hearing Yan Yaohao’s report, the Old Man chuckled coldly, "That little girl really doesn’t seem like Old Man Mu’s granddaughter."

"Mu Yixun has been spoiled since childhood by Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu, and Mr. Mu doesn’t have control over her," Yan Yaohao considered.

The Old Man muttered, "This matter depends solely on how Sijue handles it. But a girl like Mu Yixun can never enter our family’s door." At this point, the Old Man showed some regret, "Yiliang, that child, is just too weak-hearted..."

If it weren’t for this, how could she be so easily taken in by Mu Yixun and then refuse to expose her afterward?

At this very moment, regarded as weak by the Old Man, Mu Yiliang was sitting in Yan Sijue’s car, filled with trepidation.

From the moment they stepped out of the mansion, the man’s expression had sunk completely.

It was a kind of uncontrollable emotional exposure, as if anger and gloominess had reached their peak.

Mu Yiliang was somewhat frightened!

If it was just because of infidelity, with this man’s level of tolerance, he might be angry but not to this extent; otherwise, he wouldn’t be Yan Sijue.

But... for what reason? She couldn’t figure it out, making her all the more uneasy.

Could it be... he discovered something?

At this thought, Mu Yiliang’s heart sank suddenly.
