Entwined by Dawn: The CEO's Relentless Obsession-Chapter 727 - 726: Mu Family, First Confrontation 4

Mu Haiyun, on the other hand, took the opportunity to speak quickly, her voice gentle, with a hint of concern.

"Sister, you’ve finally come back. Dad has been looking for you all these years, but who would’ve thought Aunt Zhang hid you so well that it took until now to find you."

Ever since she learned that she was the Second Miss of the Mu Family, Tian Tian had been wondering what the family members of the Mu Family were like, and now that she finally met them, her heart felt cold and desolate. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

She called Shen Xin Aunt Shen, while her half-sister referred to her deceased mom as Aunt Zhang, and pinned the reason for her drifting outside all these years on her deceased mother.

Mu Qinghan listened, frowning. Just as he was about to speak, he saw his little granddaughter smile gently, her smile sweet and lovely, her brows curved.

"I was not a participant in those past events, Sister. I wasn’t even born then but was still in Mom’s womb. What exactly happened at that time, why Mom chose to leave with me, and why she let me stay outside for so many years—I think there must be reasons for everything. As for what those reasons were, it’s all in the past now, and since it’s related to the elders, as a younger generation, I don’t want to say much. But I didn’t expect that the family I’ve longed to reunite with for so many years would be so polite to me on our first meeting today that it doesn’t quite feel like family. It’s truly surprising to me."

Mu Haiyun was slightly taken aback, obviously not expecting Tian Tian to counter her words so candidly.

She even said that their behavior didn’t seem like that of her family.

Ha!

In her heart, what did Mu Tiantian even amount to?

Just an illegitimate daughter, daring to live under the same roof as her?

But since Grandpa and Dad insisted, and as the younger generation, and with the company not yet entirely in her hands, she naturally couldn’t oppose outright and could only endure for now and plan later.

Unexpectedly, a child raised in such a backwater town could possess such a clever mind.

It seems this Mu Tiantian, her half-sister, is not someone to be underestimated.

Indeed, any woman Bai Chenyao would keep by his side wouldn’t be a simple character.

The Old Madam Mu, who had been silent all this time, listened and let out a heavy snort.

"Have you forgotten even the most basic manners from your studies abroad these past two years? What sort of attitude is this upon meeting elders for the first time?"

Tian Tian knew all the past between her mom and dad. If it weren’t for the interference of this so-called grandmother, things might not have been unhappy.

So she had not a shred of goodwill toward this grandmother.

"The study courses abroad were all arranged by Grandpa and Dad. If Grandma thinks there’s anything unsatisfactory, you could directly ask Grandpa and Dad. Whether I’ve studied well, Grandpa and Dad are in the know."

Just as Mu Haiyang, dissatisfied with the attitude of Old Madam Mu, was about to speak, he was suddenly taken aback upon hearing his sister’s rebuttal.

Once he realized it, the corners of his mouth slightly curved up, revealing his first smile upon returning to the Mu Family’s old house.

This indeed was his good sister, with such a beautiful and sharp counter.

His gaze quickly fell on Grandpa nearby.

Mu Qinghan didn’t expect to be used by his granddaughter as a weapon in an instant. Despite some anger, he knew his granddaughter was not a pushover, and he felt somewhat gratified.

Moreover, every word she said was true.

"Alright, Huanfang, why bicker with a junior? Besides, Tiantian has been outside all these years, and it wasn’t easy to finally find her. Shouldn’t a family be harmonious?"

Though Mu Qinghan spoke in a gentle and courteous manner, his expression was stern, clearly not tolerating any refusal of a harmonious family atmosphere.
