Chapter 729: One Man Guards the Pass
Moreover, without his instructions, would his men dare to commit murder?!
Seeing the doubt in Xiao Muzhen's eyes, Su Nan smiled bitterly, "Miss Xiao, you don't know that I grew up with this subordinate of mine. In fact, we are as close as brothers. I am not surprised that he did this for me... Moreover, the reason he dealt with you instead of Huo Yunting was because he thought you were easier to deal with as a woman."
"Besides, you are the woman Huo Yunting loves. If anything happens to you, Huo Yunting will no longer have the heart to compete with me for the position of Patriarch of the Su Family."
After hearing this, Xiao Muzhen just felt it was ridiculous.
"Huo Yunting and I broke up a long time ago."
And Su Nan said that the person Huo Yunting loved was her, how could that be possible?!
If he really loved her, he wouldn't be engaged to another woman.
"Ms. Xiao, my men have indeed committed an unforgivable mistake. If you want to send him to prison, I will have no objections, but I hope the Xiao family can spare his life."
Xiao Muzhen lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Call the police, and we'll decide whatever the court decides."
After saying that, Xiao Muzhen turned around and left.
Xiao Zhuan looked at Su Nan with a cold gaze and said, "Second Young Master Su, I hope your Su family can learn from this incident. If it happens again, the people trained by the Xiao family will not be easy to deal with!"
Without caring about Su Nan's reaction, Xiao Zhuan said this coldly and turned to find Xiao Muzhen.
After finally catching up with her, Xiao Zhuan sighed, "Zhenzhen, I'm sorry for putting you through this."
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was definitely not the work of Su Nan's subordinate, but was instigated by Su Nan. However, he pulled someone out to take the blame, so even if they continued to investigate, they could only find the person who took the blame.
Xiao Muzhen shook his head. "Third brother, at least the Su family has been exposed. We can guard against them in the future, but whether the Shi family will let them go is not certain."
Thinking of Shi Yiheng's disabled legs due to the car accident, Xiao Zhuan sighed.
"If it weren't for this car accident, you wouldn't be engaged to Shi Yiheng, Zhenzhen... There's something I can't help but say. If you don't love Shi Yiheng, you can cancel the engagement with him at any time. The Xiao family can use something else to compensate him!"
Xiao Muzhen was touched. "Yes, I know. Let's talk about this matter after his leg recovers."
"good."
Xiao Muzhen returned to her workstation, and the thought of Su Nan saying that Huo Yunting still loved her emerged in her mind, causing her to become distracted.
But soon, she calmed down. If Huo Yunting really loved her, why would he be engaged to another woman? She couldn't understand it.
Forget it, let’s not be so self-indulgent.
In the evening, she drove to the airport to pick up Shi Yiheng.
Seeing him walking out with crutches and no longer needing a wheelchair, Xiao Muzhen's eyes flashed with shock. She didn't expect Shi Yiheng to recover so quickly.
"Zhenzhen, I'm back!"
Xiao Muzhen reached out to support him, "Does your leg still hurt? If so, try to sit in a wheelchair."
"I'm fine. Elder Yun said it's a good thing for me to walk more. It will speed up my recovery."
"Okay, I'll help you to the car."
"good."
After sending Shi Yiheng home, Xiao Muzhen was about to leave, but Shi Xingguo suddenly said, "Stay for dinner. You and Yiheng are engaged, and now that Yiheng's leg is almost healed, you can get married."
Xiao Muzhen frowned and was about to speak when Shi Yiheng spoke first: "There's no rush for Zhenzhen and I to get married. I'll discuss it with her after my leg heals. You don't have to worry about it."
Shi Xingguo snorted coldly, "How long do you want to delay this?!"
Shi Yiheng's eyes flashed with impatience, "This is my business, it's none of your business."
"Shi Yiheng, I am your father!"
Shi Yiheng sneered and said nothing more, but his eyes were full of resistance and disgust.
The atmosphere in the living room instantly dropped to freezing point. Xiao Muzhen even regretted sending Shi Yiheng in. She was really not good at dealing with this kind of thing.
Seeing her embarrassment, Shi Yiheng said softly, "Zhenzhen, I'll take you out. I just got back and have a lot of things to deal with at the company. I'll come back to see you after I finish my work."
"Um."
After leaving the Shi family, Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Shi Xingguo has a domineering personality and always likes to interfere in her and Shi Yiheng's affairs. If she wants to live with Shi Xingguo after they get married, she will definitely not agree.
But... thinking about what Shi Xingguo had just said about them getting married early, Xiao Muzhen felt like a huge stone was pressing on her chest.
She originally thought that she would fall in love with Shi Yiheng over time, but now whenever she thought about getting married, she felt an indescribable panic.
After returning home, Xiao Muzhen was about to cook dinner when she received a call from Ke Ning.
"Ms. Xiao, can you come over now? Miss Huo has a fever and keeps calling your name... Mr. Huo is out meeting a client, and I don't know what to do."
Xiao Muzhen frowned, picked up his coat and walked out while saying, "Why did she suddenly have a fever? And didn't she lose her memory? Why did she call my name?"
"Mr. Huo asked me to find a hypnotist to hypnotize Miss Huo. After that hypnosis, she occasionally called your name, but there has been no progress since then, and the hypnotist can't do anything."
"Okay, I understand. I'll be right there."
When Xiao Muzhen rushed to the villa, he happened to meet Huo Yunting who had returned at the door.
"Why are you here?"
"Yiyi has a fever, Ke Ning contacted me."
Huo Yunting frowned upon hearing this and said in a deep voice, "If he calls you again in the future, just ignore him."
Xiao Muzhen pursed her lips, said nothing, and walked in quickly.
As soon as she entered the living room, Ke Ning came to greet her, "Miss Xiao, Mr. Huo... Miss Huo just took a fever-reducing medicine and is sweating now. The servants are taking care of her upstairs."
"I'll go take a look."
After Xiao Muzhen disappeared from the second floor, Huo Yunting looked at Ke Ning with a cold expression, "Why did you call Xiao Muzhen?"
"Ms. Huo has been calling Miss Xiao's name. I thought that if she came over, she might be able to help Miss Huo recover some of her memories..."
"I don't like others to make decisions on their own. Next time Yiyi has something to say, just call me directly."
Ke Ning lowered his eyes and said nothing, obviously unwilling.
Huo Yunting frowned, "What do you mean?"
"Mr. Huo, I just feel unfair for you. You were clearly engaged to Guo Zhenzhen in order to save Miss Xiao, but you didn't tell her anything. Not long ago, you were injured while saving her. But not only did she not come to see you, she even went to the airport to pick up Shi Yiheng today. I was so angry that I called her over!"
He just didn't want Xiao Muzhen and Shi Yiheng to get along and wanted to destroy them.
Huo Yunting frowned. "This is my business, and has nothing to do with you. If you act on your own like this again next time, you don't have to follow me."
