The words that followed made her heart turn ice cold.
"It's not necessary for Little Xuan to investigate this matter! Nonetheless, Mu Chenyan is already in such a pitiful state. She'd have no place to hide if she left the Yuan household now - I'm only being kind to her because she's so pitiful.
The public perspective of the matters regarding both the Yuan Family and the Mu Family has always been undesirable. Thus, letting her stay with the Yuan Family could be considered a means of making up for the Yuan Family's reputation."
Old Mistress Yuan was clearly surprised when she said this. "You're saying that you have a goal behind why you're keeping her?"
"The Yuan Family is prosperous in many ways and lacking in nothing, but it just so happens that Little Xuan lacks a bedmate. Grandmother, please treat her a little better for my sake." When she heard Yuan Xuan saying these things, Mu Chenyan looked like she blew a blood vessel.
