They locked her up. Did they intend to never let her out, or let her die quietly in this room? No one knew.
No, no!
What would happen to Mu Chen if she died just like that? He was still in prison and was very grateful to Mu Qingsong, who had an ugly face. He was even grateful to Mu Qingsong for running around and doing his best in this matter. Little did he know that all of this was his scheme!
She could not be locked up here, absolutely not!
However, what should she do now? Her phone and bag had been taken away by them. How could she save herself?!
"Mu Qingsong, let me out! Let me out!"
Behind the door, Mu Wan screamed desperately. However, the only response she got was silence.
In the living room.
Mu Qingsong and his family seemed to be confused by Mu Wan's sudden appearance.
"Hubby, what do you think we should do now? If that brat Mu Wan leaves this place alive, we're doomed!" Beside Mu Qingsong, Chen Huijun was also exasperated.
All these years, they had worked so hard to take over the Mu Group. If anything were to go wrong now, wouldn't all their efforts go to waste?
Mu Qingsong lowered his brows and pondered carefully.
"We can't let Mu Wan know the truth. But… even if she knows, she won't be able to sue us without evidence."
Chen Huijun became even more anxious when she heard that. "So you mean to release her?!"
Mu Qingsong glanced at his wife and asked, "Then do you think we should kill her?"
Chen Huijun was instantly speechless.
They were from prestigious families and it was not appropriate for them to kill someone openly.
"Then what do you think we should do? If we leave her alive, she'll be a scourge. However, we can't kill her openly either." Chen Huijun seemed to have thought of something as she was deep in thought. Then, she looked at her husband. "Hubby, do you think that Mu Wan suspected that you and Gu Han conspired against Mu Chen? Would she suspect that the car accident three years ago was also your doing…"
"Shut up!"
Before Chen Huijun could finish, Mu Qingsong interrupted her sharply. "Don't say anything you shouldn't say."
Chen Huijun was stunned and quickly covered her mouth with her hand.
"In short, we definitely can't keep Mu Wan! She's like a time bomb to our family now. She could destroy our family anytime!"
Mu Han concluded that Mu Wan must not leave the Mu residence alive.
In the blink of an eye, Mu Han thought of a plan.
"Dad, you said that we can't kill her openly, but we can let her die quietly."
The couple turned to stare at their daughter with doubt in their eyes.
Chen Huijun asked, "Hanhan, do you have a good idea?"
Mu Han said, "Now that Mu Chen is in prison, who would care about Mu Wan in the entire Yu City? Let's lock her up for a few days. When no one notices her existence, no one will care where she went. When that time comes…"
Seeing the dark look in her daughter's eyes, Chen Huijun could not help but smile smugly.
Meanwhile, Mu Qingsong furrowed his brows. After careful consideration, he seemed to think that this was the only way to prevent the matter from being exposed.
Mu Wan was his niece, and he did not mean to hurt her. Hence, he thought of a plan to let her be taken away by the Gu family and did not expect her to come back. She could not blame her uncle for being heartless.
However, then again, Gu Tingyuan and Old Master Gu should already know that Mu Wan was the culprit behind Gu Ming's death. Based on Old Master Gu's personality, he should have caused Mu Wan to be consigned to eternal damnation. Why was she released after being taken away for a few days?
