Chapter 208 I'm Afraid You'll Act Impulsively

Mu Zhan took the water that Mu Ning handed over, took a sip, and said helplessly: "He said that if the two granddaughters are willing to come back with me, he will let them come back with me. If they don't want to, he won't force them."

Mu Ning frowned and said, "Isn't this nonsense? You only had contact with the children once or twice, and I haven't even seen those two children! It would be impossible for them to be willing to come back with you!"

"This is clearly Qin Chuyu's excuse! He doesn't want you to bring the child back at all!"

Mu Zhan rubbed his aching temple and said, "What can we do? We can't just use force, right? He's not afraid of our Mu family at all, let alone our forceful approach!"

"Besides, if we do it recklessly and forcefully, we will most likely offend him. What if he continues to run away with the child? Will Qingcheng have to look for him for several more years?"

"Well, how about we sue each other? See if we can get the child back?" Mu Ning suggested.

Mu Zhan shook his head and rejected her suggestion: "I don't think it will work. From the beginning, our daughter has made it clear that she doesn't want to have a child, and she even drove the man away. If we go to court, we will most likely lose."

"Besides, this lawsuit is not so easy to resolve. What if he just runs away? If he runs away, if you can catch him, our daughter wouldn't have to chase them for five years before finding them."

"Besides, we already know that there must be a mysterious force behind Qin Chuyu that we don't know about, which is probably why he has the confidence to face us directly and is not afraid of us at all."

"The strength of the power behind him is unknown, but we can see from the fact that he has been on the run for five years that we and those people have not received any news or clues. The power behind Qin Chuyu may be stronger than we thought. If we really want to sue him, we will not have the upper hand."

Mu Ning thought for a moment and asked, "Is there a possibility that he was just pretending? You also said that the guy has been meticulous and thoughtful for a long time. He is not an ordinary person."

"Could it be that he was pretending to scare us?"

Mu Zhan's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he rejected her possibility: "It's impossible. If he is pretending, there are too many unreasonable places."

"On the one hand, if he was pretending, wouldn't it be easy for us to find out with our abilities? He used these methods in front of us, and we still couldn't see it. Aren't we stupid? Have we lived these decades in vain and eaten so many years in vain?"

"On the other hand, when I went to investigate Qin Chuyu, I could find out everything about his family, brothers, sisters, and other people. Even what they ate or drank on a certain day, I could find out everything clearly!"

"For Qin Chuyu, I can only find out about his deeds six years ago. For the others, I can't find anything at all!"

"Furthermore..."

Mu Zhan paused, and then a sharp look flashed in his calm eyes: "Have you ever thought that since I can find out his family and relatives, then those guys who want to assassinate Qin Chuyu will not be able to find them?"

"Will they not coerce Qin Chuyu's family to let him show up? Or will they directly clean up his family and relatives? Qin Chuyu's relatives all know about the existence of those two children."

“Although I’m not sure whether Qin Chuyu told them whether the child is Qingcheng’s, there is no doubt that since those people want to wipe out the roots and ensure that no trace of information is discovered by us, they will definitely not let his family go!”

"But the fact is, during the years when Qin Chuyu disappeared, neither his family nor his relatives suffered any harm, not even any oppression!"

"This alone is actually very telling!"

Mu Zhan's words also reminded Mu Ning: "Now that you put it, it is true. If Qin Chuyu really didn't have a mysterious force behind him that made those people quite fearful, or even powerful, his family and relatives would not have been safe and sound."

"It's not just that! Qin Chuyu's family and relatives, except for those who are trying to harm his family and exploit his family, are not human relatives."

"Other relatives who had a good relationship with Qin Chuyu's family, or even good friends, were not oppressed or hurt because of this incident. Instead, they had a smooth journey, without the previous thorns and bumps, and lived the life they wanted."

"And those so-called relatives who offended him, took advantage of his family's misfortune, and almost made his family bear huge debts, have been in such a miserable state in the past few years!"

Mu Zhan exhaled slightly and said, "So, this path is not feasible. This may be the reason why Qingcheng has always been unwilling to get the child back in this way. Maybe she has already thought of this."

"Now what?"

Mu Zhan said in a troubled tone, "What else can we do? If the hard way doesn't work, let's try the soft way slowly! If that doesn't work, let's wait for Qingcheng to come back and talk to her to see if she can convince Qin Chuyu."

"Okay, I'm going to go back and rest for a while. If Qingcheng comes back, remember to tell me."

With a helpless sigh, Mu Zhan stood up and walked back to his room.

"Eh……"

"Ok."

Looking at Mu Zhan's lonely and helpless back, Mu Ning was about to call him, but in the end she put her hand down helplessly.

The furrowed brows and constantly changing eyes showed that Mu Ning's brain was thinking rapidly.

Just at this moment, a calm voice with a hint of excitement interrupted Mu Ning's thoughts:

"Mom! I'm back!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Mu Ning looked up and saw Mu Zhan, who was in casual clothes, walking in with big strides and high spirits, his face filled with excitement that was difficult to conceal.

Behind him, there were several young men who were also walking in a vigorous and energetic manner.

"Oh, A Zhan is back!"

When Mu Ning saw her eldest son whom she hadn't seen for a while, her first reaction was surprise.

"Come, let me see if you have lost weight."

Mu Ning stood up and walked forward to Mu Zhan, looking at him, who looked even darker and thinner than before.

Mu Ning reached out her hand and gently stroked her eldest son's cheek. She couldn't help but said distressedly, "Look at you, you've become thinner and darker. You must have suffered a lot outside, right?"

"Mom, I'm fine."

Mu Zhan grinned and said, "Oh, by the way, Mom, these are my comrades-in-arms, you have seen them, they want to come over and play for a few days."

Mu Ning glanced at the people behind Mu Zhan, smiled dignifiedly and kindly, and said, "Hello, welcome to my home."

"Hello, aunt!"

"Hello, aunt!"

Several of Mu Zhan's comrades also greeted Mu Ning enthusiastically.

Mu Ning said to those people with a smile: "Don't be polite, coming here is like coming home, everyone sit down, I'll ask them to make a pot of tea."

Several people sat down. Mu Zhan sat next to Mu Ning and said to her excitedly, "Mom, I came back this time because I have good news to tell you!"

"Oh, what's the good news?"

"I've become the Mercenary King!"

"Ah? Is this true?" Mu Ning was a little surprised.

A man behind Mu Zhan who was half a head shorter than him said with a smile: "Yes, auntie, Brother Zhan became the Mercenary King a few days ago, and became one of the top ten mercenary kings in the mercenary world. Our mercenary group has also officially become a king-level mercenary group."

"Ah? That's great! You really are worthy of being my son! You really make your mother proud!"

Mu Ning and the Mu family knew that Mu Zhan was a mercenary abroad.

Relying on his excellent skills and means, Mu Zhan is doing very well in the mercenary world and has considerable connections.

Not only did it provide the Mu family with certain shelter and convenience abroad, it also did a lot of things for the Mu family's overseas industries, saving them a lot of trouble.

This is why Mu Zhan is not at home all year round.

While she was happy for Mu Zhan and couldn't help but praise him, Mu Ning's face had a hint of sadness that was hard to conceal that had not yet completely disappeared.

Naturally, her mood changes could not escape Mu Zhan's eyes, so Mu Zhan asked with concern: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Since I walked in, I saw that you looked a little depressed. Did something happen to you?"

"This one……"

Mu Ning looked embarrassed. After hesitating for a while, she sighed helplessly, waved her hand and said, "Forget it, it's better for you not to know about this..."

Immediately, Mu Ning forced a smile and said to Mu Zhan, "You're back today and have been promoted again. You should be happy. Don't worry about those things. You guys sit here first. I'll go wake up your dad."

Having said that, Mu Ning turned and left.

Seeing that his mother really had something wrong, and it looked like it was a serious matter, Mu Zhan frowned and quickly chased after her, stopped her and said, "Mom, if there is anything, you should tell me. Are you hiding it from me?"

"No, no, no! No!"

Mu Ning shook her head, sighed heavily, and said, "It's just that I'm afraid that after you know it, you will be impulsive and do something wrong!"

It would have been fine if Mu Ning hadn't said anything. Once she said that, Mu Zhan became even more excited: "Mom, it's okay! I promise you, I will never act impulsively! I am no longer the person I used to be! Just tell me!"

"If you don't tell me, I'll go back to the mercenary group!"
