"I don't know, I really don't know." Looking at Mu Ningxi's angry face, Mu Wanzhen shook her head helplessly and sighed.

"Grandpa has always treated you well. He is your biological brother. How can you stand by and watch someone trying to harm him?"

Mu Wanzhen lying on the hospital bed made Mu Ningxi feel both pity and hateful. She didn't understand why this person could be so kind to outsiders but so cruel to her own family members.

Could it be that fame, fortune, and money are really so important that they can make a person become insane? This is true for Mu Yuande and Mu Wanzhen.

But these people happened to be her blood relatives. Mu Ningxi didn't know what words to use to describe her inner feelings.

"I really didn't know about your grandfather's affairs beforehand. It was only after your grandfather suddenly died that I realized something was wrong and wanted to call the police to investigate the real cause of your grandfather's death."

"But just after I said that, a fire broke out in the room where your grandfather was parked. Your grandfather..." Tears welled up in Mu Wanzhen's old eyes as she recalled the past.

"What do you mean? My grandfather's body was not sent to the funeral home for cremation, but was burned at home?" Mu Ningxi interrupted Mu Wanzhen and asked.

Mu Wanzhen looked at Mu Ningxi and nodded gently.

"How can you treat grandpa like this!" Mu Wanzhen nodded, which once again caused Mu Wanzhen to roar.

"I've said before that I knew nothing about your grandfather's case from beginning to end. After the body was burned, there was no way to perform an autopsy, so the report to the police was left unresolved."

Mu Wanzhen took a few breaths and continued.

The assistant outside the ward has been standing outside since Mu Ningxi entered, watching the movements inside the ward through the glass.

Seeing Mu Wanzhen breathing heavily, he really wanted to go in, but thinking of Mu Wanzhen's previous instructions, the assistant gave up this plan.

He knew very well that Mu Wanzhen wanted to use her last moments to atone for her sins to Mu Ningxi, and he should not go in and disturb her.

"I don't believe that Mu Yuande would even tell you about the plot to kill my parents. You two have been in the same boat for a long time. How could he not tell you the rest?"

Mu Ningxi thought carefully about what Mu Wanzhen had just said and refuted her.

"Ning Xi, whether you believe it or not, this is the fact. Yuan De really didn't tell me anything about your grandfather's illness and death."

"Also, you thought Yuande was willing to tell me the truth about your parents' car accident. It was just that I found out something, and he had to confess to me in order to ask for my help."

Mu Wanzhen looked at Mu Ningxi and began to recall.

"Before your parents got into trouble, I discovered that Yuande had embezzled public funds, but after your parents got into trouble, the crime was pinned on them."

"I noticed something was wrong and asked someone to investigate the matter privately. Yuan De may have discovered my actions and took the initiative to confess the matter to me."

"First, he wanted to use this incident to threaten me and stop me from doing anything rash next time. Second, he also wanted to use this incident to tie me to him. He said that if I exposed him, he would be able to make others think that he and I had conspired together."

"So, you and Mu Yuande have formed an alliance to seize the Mu Group that Grandfather worked so hard to build?"

Mu Ningxi didn't want to listen to Mu Wanzhen anymore. The more she listened, the more she felt that this world was too sinister.

"I admit that I did let you down regarding your parents' affairs, but I really had no idea about your grandfather's affairs. As you said, he is my biological brother after all. How could I watch someone trying to deal with him and not help him?"

Mu Wanzhen asked Mu Ningxi in return.

Mu Ningxi snorted at her and said nothing.

At this moment, Mu Ningxi's phone rang: "Wife, as you said before, we found a destroyed car under a vacant house under Mu Yuande's name. Preliminary judgment is that this should be the car your parents were driving when they had the accident."

"I have called the police now, and they will immediately send someone to arrest Mu Yuande."

Huo Beichen's slightly excited voice was heard on the phone.

Mu Ningxi had never doubted Huo Beichen's ability to do things. She responded to the microphone, "I've almost finished my conversation here. Whether you are at home or at the company, I'll come to see you."

The matter of her parents has been basically clarified. Mu Ningxi wants to wait until Mu Yuande is arrested and then ask him personally about her grandfather.

"I'll wait for you at home." Huo Beichen replied.

After hanging up the phone, Mu Ningxi glanced at Mu Wanzhen lying on the hospital bed, turned around and left without saying a word.

She didn't want to see this person anymore.

"Ning Xi, I know I have done too many things to let you down, but I still pray for your forgiveness. I don't want to leave this world with your hatred."

Looking at Mu Ningxi's back, Mu Wanzhen shouted at her with all her might.

"Forgiving you, this is impossible!" Mu Ningxi turned around and said to Mu Wanzhen word by word.

Suddenly, a mouthful of blood spurted out of Mu Wanzhen's mouth.

The assistant outside the door saw that something was wrong and rushed in without even calling the nurse.

"Madam, how are you? I'll call a doctor for you right away." The assistant stepped forward and wiped the blood from the corner of Mu Wanzhen's mouth while speaking.

"It's no use." Mu Wanzhen shook her head and stopped the assistant.

After taking a breath, Mu Wanzhen continued, "Ning Xi, whether you forgive me or not, I will hand over all my property to you as a small compensation to you."

Mu Ningxi wanted to refuse, but after seeing the suggestive look from her assistant, she gave up the idea, stood where she was, and stared at Mu Wanzhen without saying a word.

Seeing that Mu Ningxi did not refuse, Mu Wanzhen smiled at her kindly, then slowly closed her eyes.

"Madam, madam, what's wrong with you, doctor, doctor, someone come quickly!" Seeing something was wrong, the assistant ran to the door of the ward and shouted outside.

A few minutes later, the doctor arrived and announced Mu Wanzhen's death after examination.

Seeing Mu Wanzhen leave like this, Mu Ningxi couldn't tell what he felt.

From being afraid of Mu Wanzhen when she was a child to finally being able to resist her, Mu Ningxi understood that this road she had walked was very difficult.

Now, seeing such a person who occupies a certain position in my life leave just like that, it is obviously impossible to say that I am not sad.

But no matter how sad she was, it could not offset the fact that Mu Wanzhen had once concealed it from her.

"Please take care of her funeral arrangements." Looking at the assistant who was squatting beside Mu Wanzhen and crying, Mu Ningxi asked her.

"Also, I won't want anything under her name. I'll find a lawyer and transfer it all to your name."

Then, Mu Ningxi told her plan.

Hearing Mu Ningxi say this, the assistant suddenly raised his head and looked at Mu Ningxi in disbelief.
