Mu Qingsong frowned. He could not figure out what to do in this situation.
Initially, he thought that Mu Wan would be taken away by the Gu family and Mu Chen would be imprisoned. This way, the barrier between the siblings would be completely cleared. However, he did not expect Mu Wan to come back from the Gu family alive. What was going on?
Mu Qingsong turned to look at the backyard with a complicated expression.
Was it true that… No one would care about Mu Wan's life anymore?
"Dad, what are you thinking about?"
Mu Han could not help but speak up when she saw her father staring in the direction of the backyard.
Mu Qingsong retracted his gaze. Instead of answering his daughter's question, he stood up. "Get someone to take good care of Mu Wan. I'll go to the office first."
The viciousness in Mu Han's eyes became more apparent as she watched her father leave.
This time, Mu Wan was finally in her hands. She still had a score to settle with her!
…
In the backyard.
Mu Wan's voice was hoarse and no one answered her. She knew that she could not continue like this. She had to find a way to leave this place.
However, the doors and windows of this house were all locked, and there were even bodyguards on guard outside. How could she leave?
As she looked at the old house, Mu Wan tried her best to calm herself down so that she could find a chance of survival.
Her calm black eyes scanned the entire house and noticed that there was another loft upstairs.
Perhaps there was an escape route?
Hoping for a chance at survival, Mu Wan hurried to the dusty loft. It was gloomy and dark inside. There was no light there. The only light was from the small window on the roof.
As she got closer, she pushed the window open, but she could not move it at all.
She could not stay here forever. She had to go out!
She turned around and scanned the entire loft. Then, Mu Wan saw an abandoned wrench covered in rust among the pile of junk. She immediately picked it up from the ruins and smashed it against the glass.
There were bodyguards guarding the door. If she smashed the windows on the first floor, it would definitely cause a commotion. Now, she only hoped that the noise here would be softer.
Bang!
The glass shattered and Mu Wan's excited eyes shone with hope. She immediately threw down the wrench and tried to climb out of the window.
However, just as she moved, a series of hurried footsteps came from the stairs.
"Quick, catch her!"
Seeing that Mu Wan was trying to escape, Mu Han was exasperated. She ordered the two bodyguards beside her to pull Mu Wan down!
Mu Wan was terrified. She quickly turned around, grabbed the sides of the window with both hands, and quickly climbed out!
"Hiss…"
As soon as her feet left the window, she felt a sharp pain in her calf. It was so painful that her eyebrows were tightly knitted and she broke out in cold sweat!
However, Mu Wan could not care less. Even if there was a cliff in front of her, and even if she was smashed to pieces, she had no room to retreat!
"Quick, catch her!"
Mu Han was worried that she would really run away.
If Mu Wan escaped, their family would be done for!
"Quick, stop that woman up there. Don't let her escape!" In the blink of an eye, Mu Han reached the first floor. Then, she dashed out and ordered the bodyguards outside!
When she looked up, it was already dawn. The entire roof was red from the sunlight.
The roof tiles were stacked layer by layer, but for Mu Wan, every step was difficult. If she was not careful, she would fall straight down.
The house was only one and a half stories tall. Although it wasn't very tall, as a woman, she would be injured even if she didn't die after falling!
"Useless! What are you doing? Hurry up and catch her!"
