When Bo Junyi and Nie Xunhuan returned home, everyone was there. Seeing the two people with empty hands and heavy faces, they all had a bad premonition in their hearts.

"What happened?" Nie Han asked first.

Nie Xunhuan looked at Nie Han's worried eyes, and then looked at her own hands. She remembered that she was in charge of buying ingredients, and because of everyone's hard work during this period of time, she planned to have a hot pot together, so she asked everyone to come early.

If she hadn't seen Nie Haiqiao appear in Mu Zhenying's hands at the vegetable market, she would have appeared with Bo Junyi carrying a lot of ingredients.

Nie Xunhuan felt a little tired.

Bo Junyi helped her sit on the sofa, and then simply told everyone what happened. Hearing that Nie Haiqiao was now in Mu Zhenying's hands, Nie Han was also very excited. He clenched his fists, and if Momo hadn't pulled him, he would have wanted to rush to the Mu family.

Lu Hai was pulled here by Song Ling, and now he heard the news, his mood was very complicated. No matter what, Mu Yuyan is Mu Zhenying's daughter. As long as it is related to Mu Zhenying, he can't avoid thinking of Mu Yuyan.

As if knowing Lu Hai's thoughts, Bo Junyi said, "Lu Hai, let's talk."

Bo Junyi even said that he wanted to talk to others in a domineering manner. Lu Hai looked at him and did not refuse.

The two went to the study on the second floor.

"What's the matter, brother?" Lu Hai controlled his brain and tried his best not to think about that name.

But unexpectedly, Bo Junyi soon broke his control.

"What are your plans regarding the matter with Mu Yuyan?" Mu Yuyan is his sister after all. Although he can't get along with his parents, he can still be a little friendly to Mu Yuyan.

Lu Hai was stunned. He didn't expect that Bo Junyi brought him here to talk about Mu Yuyan.

"No plans." Lu Hai said honestly.

Bo Junyi was not surprised. Lu Hai was not good at dealing with these things.

"At the beginning, I deliberately gave you the opportunity to take the documents out of the company." Bo Junyi said frankly. He didn't think this matter was a big deal.

After Lu Hai heard this, his mood fluctuated for a moment, but he recovered quickly.

"Brother, you don't have to say anything. It's an indisputable fact that she took things behind my back." Lu Hai said and was about to leave.

Bo Junyi looked at him with a light tone, but what he said made Lu Hai shudder again.

"If that's the case, why do you still call me 'brother'?"

He knew that Nie Xunhuan actually wanted to help the two of them, and although she pretended to be nonchalant on the surface, she couldn't be indifferent.

Just like today's hot pot, she had originally planned to invite Mu Yuyan.

Normally, Bo Junyi doesn't care about these trivial matters, but occasionally he should mix it up.

When walking past the frozen Lu Hai, Bo Junyi patted his shoulder gently.

At the Mu family, the fact that Nie Haiqiao was tied up in the storage room was not really hidden from Mu Yuyan. Because when they were talking, Mu Yuyan was at home.

And as luck would have it, she was in the storage room.

At that time, she was secretly feeling sad about her parents, and missed Lu Hai whom she hadn't seen for a long time. When she heard someone coming, she immediately hid behind the pile of cardboard boxes in the storage room. Through the gap, she saw Nie Haiqiao who was tied up.

She was so surprised that she almost screamed out. She had seen Nie Haiqiao when she was having fun with Nie earlier. She could never have imagined that her father, who thought he had no way out, would use Nie Haiqiao as a hostage in exchange for a chance of freedom.

Just in case, Mu Yuyan had been hiding in the same place and slept in there at night.

Of course, she had turned off her cell phone, and Mu Zhenying and Shi Yulan didn't even call her. They didn't intend to ask her where she was.

The next morning, while Mu Zhenying and Shi Yulan were leaving, Mu Yuyan walked out from the cardboard box.

Nie Haiqiao was very happy to see her.

Mu Yuyan quickly untied the rope for him and wanted to leave with him. Who knew that just as he walked out of the door, he met Mu Zhenying who forgot to bring a small item.

When Mu Zhenying saw the situation in front of him, he immediately flew into a rage.

"You prodigal daughter! Are you still thinking about how to betray me?" Although the fact that he was investigated was mostly caused by Bo Junyi, he still couldn't help but vent his anger on his daughter.

Mu Yuyan felt a little wronged.

"Dad, it's a human life after all. You will be sentenced for taking hostages!" Mu Yuyan said.

Mu Zhenying smiled nonchalantly, "Sentence? In my current situation, why should I care about being sentenced?"

His voice was slightly sarcastic.

Mu Yuyan had no way to refute.

Indeed, Mu Zhenying's current situation is also very difficult, and it is normal for him to keep some tricks for himself.

She shut her mouth and looked at her father in front of her, not knowing what to say.

"Take him away!"

Mu Zhenying said to the people behind him. He went out with Shi Yulan, but Shi Yulan said halfway that she had something important to do, so she asked someone to send him back.

Mu Zhenying was very dissatisfied with Shi Yulan's recent attitude. He always felt that Shi Yulan was less and less optimistic about him.

"Dad, please let him go. As long as you let him go, I will go and beg my brother and sister-in-law to let them let you go too!"

Mu Zhenying didn't think twice and hit him with a bang.

Nie Haiqiao, who had not yet been taken back to the room, turned his head and glanced at Mu Yuyan, who fell to the ground because of Mu Zhenying's slap.

As if thinking of his own daughter, Nie Haiqiao felt a little distressed.

"Beg them? What's the use of begging them?" Mu

Zhenying said angrily.

Mu Yuyan said again, "Dad, you have done enough wrong things, I beg you to let uncle go."

The word "uncle" made Mu Zhenying even angrier. She was obviously his daughter, but she always turned her elbow outward. He felt angry when he thought about it.

He slapped her again.

Although Mu Yuyan had never experienced the warmth of a family since she was a child, this was the first time she was beaten like this, and she was a little dazed. However, the harder she tried to see the father who beat her, the less clear she could see.

Mu Zhenying was in a bad mood, and with the pent-up anger, he vented it all on Mu Yuyan.

Mu Yuyan was gradually beaten unconscious.

Until she lost consciousness, she could not see Mu Zhenying's appearance clearly. She only felt that it was the most unfamiliar time in this family.

And her last consciousness was to ask Lu Hai for help.

Although she knew very well in her heart that Lu Hai could not hear her.

After Mu Zhenying knocked Mu Yuyan unconscious, he calmed down a bit and threw her into an empty box in the storage room to prevent Shi Yulan from finding out.

At the same time, he warned the person who saw him beating her that if he told anyone, he would make him suffer a fate worse than death.

Same position, same person, but different situations. Looking at Mu Yuyan who was thrown in by Mu Zhenying like garbage, Nie Haiqiao made a decision.
