The next day, Jian Yu heard that the Wei family had not gotten any explanation for Wei Chao, and that the Ren family had even compensated Bao Yanbai with a lot of benefits.
However, the decades-long friendship between the two families was also destroyed in an instant.
As Huo Tingzhen sipped his coffee, he sighed, "I wonder how this guy did it? Could it be that he has some other dirt on Wei Chao and Miss Ren?"
Jian Yu was even more curious about Wei Chao's injuries, "I wonder how badly Wei Chao's injuries are?"
When Yan returned from the hospital, it was already afternoon. She hadn't slept all night, and her eyelids were a little swollen.
He shook his head. "You guessed right. Wei Chao broke four ribs, one of which pierced his lung. The surgery took a long time, and even my brother had to be taken in for treatment."
Jian Yu touched his ribs, and just thinking about it made him feel pain.
"His nose was broken, he lost three teeth, and eight were loose."
Jian Yu thought of Miss Ren, who had escaped in the chaos, and wondered how she was doing.
"Because of Miss Ren's actions, the Ren family not only lost the Bao family, a long-time friend, but also had to give Bao Yanbai 5% of the shares. Miss Ren's parents sent her abroad early this morning and will not let her return for several years."
"Is it that serious?"
Jian Yu suspected that Miss Ren had done something excessive that put her parents in such a passive position.
She wasn't particularly interested and had no intention of investigating.
Yan was just about to go upstairs to take a shower and catch up on sleep.
The security guard suddenly announced that Mu Nannan and her mother had arrived.
Jian Yu shook her head slightly, and the maid replied to the doorman via video, "Miss Jian Yu went out with Miss Tingzhen, and they probably won't be back for a few days."
Mu Nannan lowered her head, her eyes quickly turning red. "Really?"
Mother Mu pulled Mu Nannan into the car. "I told you not to come, but you insisted. And what happened? You saw it yourself, they don't treat you like a friend at all, they wouldn't even let you in the door. You're just..."
"It's all your fault!" Mu Nannan suddenly roared.
Mother Mu froze on the spot, "What did you say?"
"When I called Jian Yu this morning, she was perfectly fine. I told her I wanted to come visit her, and she said yes. Then you overheard me talking to Jian Yu and started saying she was cold-blooded, that she didn't care or help me when I was missing all day in the storm, and that I should stay away from her. You knew she could hear you on the other end of the line, but you still said those things on purpose, just to tell her not to associate with me. Now that she's listened to you and doesn't want to associate with me anymore, why are you turning around and blaming me?"
"......"
Mu's mother pointed at Mu Nannan, her hand trembling like a leaf, "Did I say something wrong? You were out of contact for almost a day and a night. I could understand that you couldn't go out the first night because of the weather, but the weather was fine the next day, and she still didn't come looking for you. In the end, you came back on your own. True friends, even if they have a conflict, will care about each other's safety. She doesn't care about you at all."
"Who said she doesn't care?" Mu Nannan was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes. "You don't know anything, all you do is try to stop me."
“I’ve eaten more salt than you’ve eaten rice, would I ever harm you? Last time you went out to film a variety show with her, what happened? You almost got... This time you were out of contact for over twenty hours, and she didn’t even ask about you or help look for you. At the crucial moment, she couldn’t provide any useful clues. I stopped you from contacting each other, where did I go wrong?”
Mu Nannan roared, "Who said she didn't help?"
"What did she help with?"
Mu's mother also started yelling. How could her daughter be so fierce to her for the sake of an outsider?
Mu's mother felt very wronged and couldn't help but tear up.
"She helped me so much; without her, I would have jumped off a building and died!"
Mu Nannan lost control of her emotions and began to pound on the seat.
"What?"
What does it mean that Mu's mother's tears are stuck in her eyes?
When is Mu Nannan going to jump off the building?
Why would someone jump off a building?
"I didn't want to say this, but you've really gone too far."
Mother Mu dared not argue with Mu Nannan any longer, gripping the steering wheel nervously, "When did this happen?"
“It was the time I went missing for a day and a night. That night, I was thinking of jumping off the building, but because I’m a coward, I hesitated and dragged it out until the next day. It was Jian Yu who found me in time and brought me back.”
Mu's mother's mind went blank. She was right. That day, Nan Nan's phone call sounded like she was giving her last words.
"What exactly happened?"
Mu Nannan opened her mouth, but couldn't bring herself to say that Lu Wei had threatened her with a short video.
Finally, she pursed her lips and remained silent.
After waiting for a long time without getting an answer, Mu's mother turned around, wanting to urge Mu Nannan to speak, but when she saw Mu Nannan's painful expression, she couldn't open her mouth.
After a long while, Mother Mu drove away from the villa area.
Weimen peeked out, pressed the chat button, and notified Jianyu.
Yan Shi asked, "What happened between you and Mu Nannan?"
Jian Yu was playing a matching game and didn't even look up when she heard this. "It's nothing. Her mother doesn't like her associating with me."
"If she didn't like it, why did her mother still come to the door?"
"Maybe they just can't get past their own child!"
"You did a good job. In this situation, it's better not to see him."
Huo Tingzhen felt the same way.
Just when Jian Yu thought the matter was over, her phone rang an hour later. It was Mu's mother.
"What are you doing? Are you trying to criticize me?"
Jian Yu raised his index finger and pressed the hang-up button.
Huo Tingzhen nodded. "Not bad."
Mother Mu stared at the phone that had been hung up, looking surprised. Jian Yu had actually hung up on her?
Aren't she and Nan Nan friends?
Even if she did something wrong, she was unaware of it. Shouldn't Jian Yu let it go for Nan Nan's sake?
Unable to contact Jian Yu, and with Mu Nannan refusing to say anything, Mu's mother was so worried she had a headache.
"What to do? What to do?"
When I called Mr. Mu, he was even more at a loss for what to do.
In the end, it turned into blaming Mu's mother.
"You moved out to live alone with Nan Nan, and what happened? She almost got into an accident, and you didn't even know why. It was better when you lived with my mom and the others. Back then, Mom would tell us about Nan Nan every day."
"Your mom is either complaining about Nan Nan or on her way to complain about Nan Nan every day. If your mom really cared about Nan Nan, Nan Nan wouldn't have gone missing that day; she would have run back to your mom to complain. When your mom found out Nan Nan was missing, she didn't show any concern. Lao Mu, you and I both know what kind of person your mom is. Don't use your mom and brother to upset me."
Hiding in her bedroom, Mu Nannan peered through the door and heard the arguing coming from the living room balcony. Tears streamed down her face.
