That day, Mu Xiangwan woke up early too. As she descended the stairs, she saw her parents sitting in the dining room waiting for her to join them for breakfast. Seeing this, she suddenly felt nervous.
She was afraid her parents would ask her about the incident from the night before, afraid that Su Chaoyang had explained everything to her parents behind her back. If her dad found out she'd lied so blatantly and even schemed to frame others, he would surely be furious.
Thankfully, they didn't.
Upon seeing her daughter coming downstairs, Lady Mu greeted her warmly, "Xiaowan, come and have breakfast quickly."
Seeing his daughter's timid demeanor, Mu Chenggong thought she was still shaken by last night's incident and kindly asked, "What's wrong? Did you not sleep well?"
