CHAPTER 470: 228. "IF SOMEONE REALLY HAS TO GO TO JAIL, THEN LET IT BE ME.

The woman’s words were not short, and Mu Jin Huan listened patiently. The surface of his calm, dark eyes showed no ripples, only a few cold crystal flowers lying deep within.

His thin lips parted slightly, speaking indifferently, "Don’t tell me you still have feelings of ’guilt’ towards him."

It’s only been half a year since the incident, and she has forgotten it completely?

"What are you thinking?" Nan Wan chuckled speechlessly, "Even if my compassion runs rampant, I wouldn’t feel guilty towards him."

Grievances and disputes, right or wrong, have long been unclear.

Mu Jin Huan lost interest in eating, put down his chopsticks, got up and went to the bedside table to find cigarettes.

His voice was indifferent, "Then what do you want to know?"

He had his back to the sofa, so Nan Wan couldn’t see what he was searching for in the drawer.

"G.M is a renowned company in the industry. Its founder seems to be from Qing City. Although he passed away last September, why is Nan Huaiyu the current president of G.M?"

After all, Paris is far away, and the domestic magazines reported vaguely about the change in G.M’s presidency.

Bai Ruoshu clearly didn’t want to mention much about the time in Paris. Due to their water-clear relationship, she naturally couldn’t ask about the other’s private affairs.

Since she was given the chance to ask, she might as well get it all clarified at once.

"Deliberately causing a car accident is illegal. Was it you or the third brother who did it?"

After finding the cigarette box, Mu Jin Huan took out a cigarette and clamped it in his mouth, tossed the box back into the drawer, straightened up, and lit it with a lighter.

After taking two puffs, he turned to look at the woman curled up on the sofa, his voice low and calm, "Is there anything else?"

Nan Wan didn’t dislike the smell of tobacco. More accurately, she didn’t dislike the scent of tobacco mixed with hormones on Mr. Mu.

But due to the gentlemanly education he received since childhood, he didn’t want the child and her to suffer the harm of second-hand smoke, so he rarely smoked at home.

Even if work presented trouble, he would only smoke a few in the study.

This kind of smell hadn’t appeared in the bedroom for a long time.

Mr. Mu must not be very happy...

She licked the tip of her chopsticks, "...That’s it for now."

Mu Jin Huan stretched his long legs; the distance was short but he walked very slowly, as if deliberately testing the woman’s nerves.

Passing the foot of the bed, he circumvented the round table and finally stopped in front of the sofa.

Mr. Mu had a wealth of life experience, and every gesture was imbued with the calmness and maturity refined over the years.

Seeing the woman’s flushed little face, the displeasure in Mu Jin Huan’s heart quietly faded away.

A low, deliberate chuckle seeped from his throat, creating an amorous ambiance in the silent night.

Snuffing out the glowing cigarette, he pulled up the cardigan slipping off the woman’s shoulder, took the water cup from the table, and brought it to her lips, "Want a sip?"

It was like he was teasing a newborn kitten out of idle boredom.

"Never mind then," Nan Wan turned her head to the side, attempting to pry away the man’s hand clasped around her waist, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t loosen it a bit.

Feeling slightly annoyed, she looked up at him, "I’m hungry and want to eat,..."

Mu Jin raised his arm, brought it to his own lips, and drank two sips.

He didn’t care at all that she had just drunk from there.

After thinking for a bit, since the matter was settled, there was no need to hide it from her anymore.

"The founder of G.M Company is Bai Ruoshu’s biological father by blood," he continued, gently brushing away the hair stuck to her cheek, "His wife couldn’t bear children, and on his deathbed, he found the daughter left behind from a fling many years ago."

Nan Wan was stunned.

Even in that era, these things were not uncommon.

What kind of woman could raise a fine girl like Bai Ruoshu on her own?

"So, is Nan Huaiyu stepping on a woman’s back to ascend?"

"Pretty much," Mu Jin Huan patted the curve of her leg, giving her back her freedom, "The dishes will get cold, let’s eat."

Regarding the romantic history of G.M’s founder, Nan Wan didn’t want to know too much.

Sitting on the man’s legs without moving, she gazed intensely into those dark eyes, "That, that car accident, was it you who caused it? Or the third brother?"

She didn’t know where her nervousness was coming from.

"Half and half," Mu Jin Huan, noticing the woman’s emotions, kissed her forehead in reassurance, even his voice was gentler, "Just returning the favor, won’t die, just need to lie there for a few months, compared to Nan Ze, it’s light."

So-called retribution is all man-made.

"But, but this is illegal," after saying this, Nan Wan suddenly realized something, hurriedly leaned over to kiss the corner of the man’s lips, "Mu Huan, I didn’t mean to criticize you, I just..."
