Chapter 261: Chapter 261: Sending Off Dad and Mom (5)_1

Cai Wei couldn’t sleep and chose to use her inner vision to check on Brother Ying. She saw him trapped in a cage made of pig iron, hopping around agitatedly. His once adorable mung bean eyes had turned bright red, staring outside as if he wanted to shred someone to pieces.

"Brother Ying!"

She called out to him, but Brother Ying did not react, as if he hadn’t heard her at all.

Cai Wei couldn’t help but feel saddened. In the past, Brother Ying would answer her promptly, appearing at her beck and call.

However, now he was like a puppet transformed by a demonic soul, unresponsive to her summons. His mung bean eyes were filled with sparks of hatred. Gone was his usual lively and cheerful appearance!

"Brother Ying, hold on. I will definitely destroy Tianjizi and save you!"

She silently recited, even if Brother Ying couldn’t hear her...

...

Early next morning, Cai Wei’s family had already risen. Today they were to return to the town, then go straight to the capital. They didn’t know when they would be able to come back, so after washing up, Mu Zhongqing and his wife, along with their children, went to bid farewell to the main house’s family.

When they arrived at the main house, Mu Liankui and Lady Mu Bai had just gotten up. They were still feeling down because of yesterday’s incident involving their precious granddaughter. Upon seeing them, they said, "Something happened at home yesterday, everyone went to bed late, so we haven’t risen yet. No breakfast has been prepared either. You all should go back and eat."

Upon hearing this, Mu Zhongqing sneered, "We are not here for a meal. Did you both forget, Father and Mother? My family and I are leaving for the capital today, so we brought our wife and children to say our goodbyes."

Previously oblivious to their departure, Mu Liankui and Lady Mu Bai recalled upon hearing this. Even though they did not like Mu Zhongqing, they played the part of loving parents and said a few encouraging words to them.

After Mu Zhongqing listened quietly, he solemnly bowed to them. Afterwards, he left with his wife and children without looking back.

The moment they stepped out of the main house, Cai Wei felt that her father intended to cut ties with Mu Family completely. They would no longer have to endure their trials and tribulations. Their life together would surely be blissful from this day onward!

When they returned home, a horse carriage with a green canopy was parked at the entrance. The carriage driver, seeing them return, hopped down and said to Mu Zhongqing, "Master Mu, we are here on our master’s orders to escort you and your master’s friends. After reuniting, we will proceed to the capital together."

Mu Zhongqing acknowledged and said, "Much appreciated!"

He then got on the carriage with his family and rushed back to the town. After having a simple breakfast there, they started packing. Only a few sets of clothing that were bought after they moved to the town, the fabric gifted by Old Madam An to Cai Wei, and the items sent by Huo Yuan were taken. Everything else was left behind.

Cai Wei entrusted the care of Zhang Bo’s family to them, asking them to bring the family to the capital first. She needed to stay temporarily to take care of the nursing home and restaurant, and would catch up with them later.

Both Lady Du and Mu Zhongqing were worried about leaving her behind and even suggested postponing their departure to travel together to the capital at a later date. After a lot of persuasion and repeated assurances, Cai Wei finally convinced them to leave.

Once her parents had left, Cai Wei breathed a sigh of relief. Her mood lightened without the constraint of her family. Freed from her family’s fetters, she could finally confront Tianjizi, the old fart, with all her might.

Making a rough estimate of Tianjizi’s arrival, Cai Wei decided that the showdown would take place tonight or tomorrow morning in the mountains behind Mu Family Village. She made this choice to prevent any innocent bystander from getting hurt or anyone from witnessing the confrontation.
