Chapter 1050: Conversation Between Father And Daughter
EndlessFantasy Translation
He smiled at her gently.
“You’d follow me anywhere? That’s kind of creepy,” he teased her.
She smiled. “You couldn’t grasp the main point this time, could you?”
“What’s the main point?” He feigned ignorance.
“The point is, I…”
…
Mu Lingshi did not expect to bump into Mu Tangchuan. His car was already waiting for her outside the moment she got out of the hospital, and Ah Quan was there as well.
“Father? Why are you here?” Mu Lingshi was surprised to see Mu Tangchuan.
Mu Tangchuan seemed calm and collected and usual as he looked at Mu Lingshi. “It just so happened that I was nearby. The butler called and I came over to take a look. Is Xiao Cheng alright?”
“He’s fine. Brother and Sister-in-law are both with him, they told me to head back first.”
Mu Tangchuan nodded. “That’s great. Get into the car. I have something to talk to you about.”
She was stunned for a moment, but she then nodded and entered the car. They went to a park and sat down in a quiet corner.
“Father, is it about Brother?” Mu Lingshi asked right away as they sat down.
Mu Tangchuan did not usually get himself involved with things like these. Since he was the calmest among the Mu family members, Mu Lingshi never doubted his ability. However, because he initiated the conversation this time, he must be worried about something.
“It’s not about him, it’s about you,” Mu Tangchuan said quietly as he observed Mu Lingshi’s expression, “I’m sure you’ve found out about your own identity. Despite everything, you must know that your mother and I have been taking care of you as if you’re our biological daughter.”
“I know, Father, you’ve both treated us very well, and even neglected Brother for our sake. I’m really grateful for what you’ve done, but we’ve disappointed everyone, especially Lingtian…” Mu Lingshi’s voice sounded hoarse as she was feeling guilty.
“I’m not talking about the past. I just want to know what you have in mind for the future? No matter what, you’re actually Gu Qiwu’s daughter, and that’s a fact, whether you’ll admit it or not. Your mother and I won’t have any complaints if you want to reunite with him since it’s your right. I just hope that you can come back to visit us from time to time. We will miss you dearly,” Mu Tangchuan said gently. He really doted on Mu Lingshi, and due to Mu Zi’s influence, he actually gave her most of his affection.
Stunned, Mu Lingshi quickly shook her head and grabbed his sleeve. “Father, I won’t leave you two. I won’t leave the Mu family! So what if I know? I don’t care about the Gu family at all!”
“Lingshi, I’m afraid it’s not up to you whether you care or not.” Mu Tangchuan stared deep into her eyes. “Did Gu Qiwu came into contact with you?”
“I met him once outside of Entertainment City,” she replied quietly.
Mu Tangchuan smiled. “He frequently visited Entertainment City a while ago. I’ve known it for some time already. I suppose you know why he goes there too. I guess he’s trying to show his consideration for you. I’m not going to say much. I just want to know if the same thing that happened between Lingtian and Ah Chen won’t happen again with you, will it?”
Mu Lingshi was startled by his question. “Father, what do you mean?”
He looked deep into her eyes instead of answering. Then, he focused on the reflection of lights on the pond. “Have you ever blamed Ah Chen?”
She quickly shook her head. “No! Father, I’ve never once blamed Brother. I probably would’ve made the same decisions as him if I were him. Ah Mo and I both knew what happened from the beginning to the end, so I really don’t blame him.”
“However, a lot of people, including Gu Qiwu push the blame onto Ah Chen though it’s great that you thought about it. Alright, that’s all that I wanted to say. Let’s go back.”
Although Mu Lingshi could sense that Mu Tangchuan had something on his mind even though he was not voicing it out, but she would not ask about it. Mu Tangchuan’s personality was similar to Mu Yuchen’s. They would not speak a word about the matters they did not want to talk about.
After Mu Xiaocheng’s treatment was done, the sun was already setting, and the evening sun colored the sky gold.
Mu Yuchen had his son in one arm while holding his phone with his other hand. They walked towards the exit while Xi Xiaye followed beside him.
“Master, Missus!”
Li Si did not send Mu Lingshi back due to Mu Tangchuan’s sudden appearance, so he had been waiting outside this whole time. He rushed up to them and voiced out his concern, “Is Young Master alright?”
“He’s fine. The fever has gone down. Let’s go back now.” Mu Yuchen handed his phone to his wife beside him and she quickly took it.
Mu Yuchen carefully sat inside the car with Mu Xiaocheng in his arms while Xi Xiaye bent over slightly and slid in as well.
The sun had almost set when they arrived home. Xi Xiaye told Mu Yuchen to bring their son upstairs while she went into the kitchen.
Mu Yuchen only left the bedroom after Mu Xiaocheng had fallen asleep peacefully. Li Si had been waiting in the living room for quite a while and he went up to Mu Yuchen as soon as he saw him. “Master!”
“Let’s talk in the study room.” Mu Yuchen then went towards the study room as Li Si followed him.
“Master, Ms. Lingshi met Minister Mu outside the hospital just now,” Li Si said quietly.

“Father?” Mu Yuchen frowned slightly as he asked, “What happened?”
Li Si knotted his brows as well. “Maybe he heard something.”
Mu Yuchen nodded. “That’s the only possible explanation. Make an appointment with Gu Qiwu at 4 p.m. this Friday by the South River bank. I have something to talk to him about.”
“Yes, Master!”
