Almighty Sweet Queen is Really Rich!

Chapter 886: Chapter 886: I Want to Prove My Innocence

Walking out from a row of small villas, a distant glance caught sight of Mu Shian standing not far away.

Mu Shian looked at Feng Ciye’s reddened eye corners in shock and asked, ”What happened to you?”

Feng Ciye placed one hand in his trouser pocket and smiled lightly, ”Nothing much.”

Seeing Feng Ciye’s calm demeanor, Mu Shian couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

Everyone in An City knew that Fourth Young Master Feng and Second Young Master Mu had a great relationship, yet no one ever knew that they actually had never truly connected.

Feng Ciye never disclosed his thoughts to outsiders, always maintaining the appearance of a well-mannered gentleman.

Mu Shian glanced at the cluster of villas, and with a slight turn of his thoughts, he guessed roughly what had happened.

Walking side by side with Feng Ciye, Mu Shian deliberated on his choice of words, smiled, and said, ”I heard my sister Qing Mei say that Seventh Master Feng is with that Su Li?”

Feng Ciye smiled serenely, showing no sign of emotion; it was hard to tell what he was thinking.

Mu Shian continued, ”Su Li is quite good, but Ling Chenyu isn’t bad either? She seems to really like you...”

Mu Shian felt that Ling Chenyu wasn’t bad, although she was raised quite spoilt by the Ling Family, she seemed to genuinely like Feng Ciye.

Feng Ciye glanced at Mu Shian with a smile, his voice soft as the wind, ”Yan Huan also truly likes you, why not stop chasing Yan Le and wait for Yan Huan to get out of jail?”

Mu Shian: ”...”

Fourth Young Master Feng, although appearing like a humble gentleman, was exceptionally skilled at silencing people with his words.

Mentioning Yan Le, Mu Shian felt a pang of discomfort in his heart.

If in the past, Yan Le could only rely on Yan Huan and him, she had now grown...

Despite being confined to a wheelchair forever, she spent her days creating and organizing manuscripts with her assistant Xue Niannian, always aware not to squander President Su’s appreciation, presenting herself as a strong, independent woman, completely ignoring him.

Even if Yan Le ignored him, he never thought about waiting for that malicious woman Yan Huan to get out of prison.

Thus, empathizing with Feng Ciye’s sharp words left Mu Shian speechless to counter.

Feng Ciye’s eyes were filled with chilliness, because Ling Chenyu’s fondness was based on teasing him.

Feng Ciye didn’t want to discuss his feelings with Mu Shian, subtly shifting the topic, ”I need to return to An City to handle some matters.”

Mu Shian frowned, ”Regarding Old Seven’s attack in M Country? Why bother with it? Why investigate?”

Since when had Feng Ciye started investigating for Feng Huaijin?

They were competitors, after all!

Feng Ciye chuckled lightly with his hands behind his back, ”Because... I want to prove my innocence.”

His discord with Feng Huaijin and their years of rivalry were indeed true.

But since he woke up, he hadn’t schemed against Feng Huaijin for a long time.

Having lived in filthy darkness, he once wished to show her his purest side.

He cautiously approached that beam of light, afraid that it might extinguish due to his own dirtiness.

If it wasn’t his doing, he certainly wouldn’t take the blame for it.

Mu Shian watched Feng Ciye’s departing figure and shook his head lightly, ”Beware, entangled in the mud, everything may become void in the end, causing harm to oneself.”

...

Inside the villa hall, Su Li took a sip of tea, her eyes brightened slightly and she said, ”Is this herbal tea? It tastes fresher than what I’ve had before.”

Xiao Mian’s voice was soft as she replied, ”This... was brought by Fourth Young Master a few days ago.”

Su Li almost spat out her tea in surprise, feeling a bit embarrassed.

It turned out to be sent by Feng Ciye.

Su Li wiped her mouth, placing the teacup down, and shifted the topic, ”I’ve been to M Country recently, has anything major happened domestically?”
