Chapter 167 The White Moonlight Who Died Early in the Substitute Novel (4)

"Old Yu, what's going on at the Pei family next door? Why is it so lively so late?" Father Mu frowned and asked Old Yu, the security guard standing to the side.

Old Yu's eyes darted around, and he inwardly groaned. It seemed the Pei family had finally discovered Young Master Pei, who had been hidden in some corner. This had nothing to do with him, so he stammered, "Madam, I...I don't know!"

At this moment, Canglan opened the door, a smile on her face, and said in a coquettish tone, "Mom and Dad, come in quickly, Aunt Cheng has already prepared the meal."

Mu's parents' attention was then drawn back. The family went inside, tidied up, and then came downstairs to sit at the dining table.

The table was laden with a sumptuous spread of dishes, though most were light and simple. Mu's parents finished eating in no time, while Cang Lan leisurely finished his meal.

Looking at her daughter's appearance, Mu's mother's eyes widened in surprise. "An'an, eat less. You just had surgery. Eating so much is not good for your health."

Mr. Mu, however, did not take it seriously and looked at his daughter with a doting expression. "Oh, let her eat. The surgery was finally successful. Our An'an will be a normal person from now on. Eating more means she has a good appetite, and a good appetite means she will be healthy."

Canglan put down the bowl, patted his belly, and said confidently, "Yeah, Mom, I feel like I could kill a cow right now."

Watching the interaction between the father and daughter, Mu's mother beamed with a happy smile.

After dinner, Mr. and Mrs. Mu sat on the sofa. Their eyes met, and they hesitated to speak, trying to signal each other to speak first. They pushed each other for a while, but Mrs. Mu failed.

Mu's mother sighed helplessly and looked at her daughter, saying, "An'an, did you meet Pei Jinxiu this time you came back?"

Canglan had long noticed the strangeness of Mu's parents. She knew that in the original story, Mu's parents did not want Mu Si'an to marry into the Pei family, but since their daughter liked them, they, as parents, could not force the couple to be together.

So Cang Lan didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "I broke up with Pei Jinxiu."

Upon hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Mu seemed frozen in place, exclaiming in unison, "What?"

Mr. Mu frowned, and his voice unconsciously rose: "When did this happen? You just got back and you've already broken up? Who brought it up! That brat Pei Jinxiu?"

“After I went abroad, Pei Jinxiu found another woman, and even found a woman who looked about 70-80% like me to disgust me, so we broke up, it’s that simple.” Cang Lan answered calmly and in a flat tone.

Upon hearing this, Mu's father stood up abruptly and shouted angrily, "That kid is absolutely outrageous! Our An'an just went abroad and was in critical condition in the hospital, and he immediately found another woman who looks like you. He doesn't respect us at all. Daughter, you'd better break up with this kind of man, break up cleanly!"

Mother Mu was also so angry that her eyes reddened. She nodded repeatedly and kept muttering, "This is outrageous! This is outrageous! What does he take my An'an for?"

Then, Mu's mother looked at Cang Lan cautiously, her eyes full of worry and concern: "An'an, what are you thinking right now?"

Cang Lan raised her eyes and waved her hand nonchalantly: "I don't want other people's used trash, so don't worry about me, Mom and Dad." After saying that, she winked playfully at her parents.

"Mom and Dad, I'm a little sleepy, I'm going to bed." After saying that, she walked upstairs with light steps, her every move revealing her inner joy.

Seeing their daughter like this, Mu's father and mother couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.

Mr. Mu scratched his head. “This child is acting like nothing happened. She’s not sad or upset at all. The way she ate just now was the first time I’ve ever seen her eat so much. She was so happy when she came upstairs. She doesn’t look like she’s broken up at all. Could it be that An’an has wanted to break up for a long time but just hasn’t found the opportunity?”

"Maybe you're right. Look at how happy An'an is; it doesn't seem like she's faking it."

After a moment of silence, Mu's father slowly spoke: "That makes things easier. Pei Jinxiu is indeed quite capable, but the Pei family's current status is built on some shady methods."

Moreover, Pei Yazhi is no pushover. She was already dissatisfied with our An'an, and now that things have turned out this way, we no longer need to hold back against the Pei family. Take the Chen Group project, for example; we don't need to consider their feelings anymore.

Upon hearing this, Mu's mother's eyes reddened slightly, and she began to sob softly, with a touch of girlish coquettishness: "Husband, do you know? I am so happy today. Our An'an can live like a normal person from now on, and she has broken up with Pei Jinxiu. What's going on in our family lately? Good things keep happening one after another. I can hardly believe it."

Seeing this, Mu's father quickly stepped forward and gently embraced Mu's mother. "What's there to doubt, wife? From now on, our family will live happily ever after. Also, since An'an and that Pei Jinxiu have broken up, it's time for us to move out."

"Okay, if it weren't for making An'an happy, we would have moved out long ago. I'll have someone pack it up in the next few days." After saying that, the two went upstairs.

The Pei family next door

Pei Yazhi stood in the center of the living room, her eyes sharp and authoritative. She shouted at the butler beside her, "Quickly check the surveillance footage! I want to see who dared to beat Jin Xiu like this and then strip him naked and leave his clothes near our Pei family. This is simply a blatant slap in the face of the Pei family!"

The security guard standing nearby was already trembling with fear, large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. He said in a trembling voice, "Madam, the place where the young master was thrown is a blind spot for the surveillance cameras. They couldn't capture anything."

Pei Jinxiu had been bandaged up, with only his eyes showing. He frowned, looking both ashamed and annoyed, and said, "Mom, can you please stop? Your son was stripped naked and left near your own home. You're not ashamed, but I am!"

Upon hearing this, Pei Yazhi immediately turned to Pei Jinxiu and said irritably, "Ashamed? I don't know who was it that appeared in front of me with a pig's head and naked body just now. If you hadn't called me 'Mom,' I would have thought it was some beggar!"

Pei Jinxiu frowned even deeper, his face full of impatience. "Mom, even if you're angry, you can't be so heartless towards your own family. I'm still your son."

He knew perfectly well that the people living in this villa area were all prominent figures, and few of them usually strolled around outside. This was to prevent more people from seeing him in that state, otherwise he would really become the laughing stock of the entire upper class tomorrow.

Pei Yazhi paused slightly, realizing she had been a bit too harsh, and softened her tone as she asked, "Jin Xiu, I asked the servants, and they said you came back a long time ago. Didn't you go to find the Mu family's daughter? How did you end up like this, stripped naked and left at the door? What exactly happened?"
