Mu Peilan was completely desperate. She wanted to blame her elder brother, but she was afraid of his identity and could only cry.
But in her heart, she felt that Mu Peiyuan was so bewitched by Danruo's appearance that he didn't even care about his own nephew.
Mu Peiyuan helped his sister up and said earnestly:
