When Di Yajun saw Mu Xiaoxue's tears flowing down like pearls from a broken string, she felt her heart break.
Hurriedly pulling Mu Xiaoxue into her arms, Di Yajun patted her back gently. "My good Xiaoxue, don't cry. This isn't your fault. Wanwan was too greedy. Teacher Ouyang chose to accept you as her disciple because you are much more outstanding than her. You can't give up your bright future like this."
"But Wanwan isn't coming home because of this. What should we do?" Mu Xiaoxue looked at Di Yajun with red eyes.
Di Yajun sneered. "She'd better not come back. If she does, I'll teach her a lesson."
She didn't need to guess to know that Mu Wanwan must have said something to Xiaoxue, which made the latter stop learning the piano.
She really didn't know how such a vicious person could crawl out of her womb. If she had known this would happen, she would have strangled Mu Wanwan to death at her birth, or perhaps, she should not have thought of acknowledging Mu Wanwan back then.
"Mom, don't blame Wanwan. Wanwan isn't to blame for this." Mu Xiaoxue looked at Di Yajun sincerely.
"Xiaoxue, you are too kind," Di Yajun said helplessly, "Watch your emotions. Don't get too emotional. It's not good for your health."
Mu Xiaoxue nodded obediently. "I'll take good care of myself. Don't worry about me, Mom."
"How old are you now? Why are you still crying?" Di Yajun raised her hand to wipe away Mu Xiaoxue's tears. "Alright, go wash your face and accompany your father. Tonight, I'm going to cook up a storm of delicious dishes. We shall celebrate your father's success. "
Mu Xiaoxue nodded again. The moment she turned around, the corners of her lips curled into a deep arc.

Mu Wan finished a day of classes in the evening and prepared to go back to the Mus.
Today, Bo Sihan agreed to let her go back to visit them.
Just as she reached the campus gate, Mu Wanwan saw the car that Bo Sihan had sent to pick her up.
The chauffeur was not Fang Xun, but the old chauffeur at home, Uncle Liu.
"Uncle Liu," Mu Wanwan walked up to Uncle Liu and greeted him with a bright smile.
Uncle Liu humbly bent down and opened the car door for Mu Wanwan. "Get in the car, Miss Mu."
After she entered, Uncle Liu also got into the car.
"Miss Mu, Mr. Bo has arranged for me to send you back to the Mu family." Uncle Liu looked at Mu Wanwan through the rearview mirror.
Mu Wanwan was wearing a simple white short t-shirt and jeans today. Her hair was tied into a simple ponytail, and she looked neat and tidy. She was completely different from the exaggerated young girl in his memories.
Uncle Liu didn't know how to praise people. He just felt that Mu Wanwan was especially attractive now. She was a hundred times prettier than usual.
Master Bo had been in a good mood for the past two days, probably because of Miss Mu's change.
How wonderful was this?
Half an hour later, at the entrance of the Mus' residence.
Mu Wanwan got down from the car and said to Uncle Liu, "Uncle Liu, you can go back first. I can take a taxi back later."
"Miss Mu, I'll wait for you here," Uncle Liu said with a smile.
Mu Wanwan knew that this must have been Bo Sihan's arrangement. That man still didn't completely trust her, so he sent someone to follow her.
She did not say anything else. She thanked Uncle Liu and walked into the Mus' residence.
The Mu family's villa was not big, but it was in a well-known wealthy district.
Mu Wanwan passed by the front yard garden and arrived at the white three-story bungalow. She gently pressed the doorbell.
