Chapter 1582

“Since you’ve seen it, then try to soothe it.”

Mu Xiaojiu’s large hand extended, gripping Baili Xia’s wrist tightly; this girl had no chance to escape right in front of him.

The door slammed shut with a bang, leaving the desperate little girl to stare at the man who threw her onto the bed.

Watching him lock the door systematically, then walk to the bedside, taking off his clothes one by one.

Her little heart instantly trembled fiercely.

Uncle is angry, and the consequences really could be severe.

Tonight, can she even survive?

…

Over the past few days, everything seemed calm on the surface in the Mu family, but underneath, turbulent waves were surging.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

On this day, in the main mansion’s dining hall, Mu Xiaojiu came over from Sihai Residence.

Having dinner together with the old master, Mu Xiaoyao, Baili Xia, and Ning Anran.

Seeing Uncle sitting not far from her, Baili Xia felt somewhat uneasy inside.

She originally planned to find him, of course, for Zimo’s belly issue.

Three days have passed, and she hasn’t mentioned the child to Zimo, mainly because these days Zimo didn’t seem to think much about it.

Tonight, her big brother and Zimo went out together, don’t know what they went to do; Baili Xia was anxious because the three-day deadline Uncle promised her had arrived.

The atmosphere at dinner tonight seemed not so good; even though Mu Xiaojiu came, he only greeted the old master and said nothing else.

Even when Mu Xiaoyao and Baili Xia greeted him, he only casually nodded without a sound.

Since that night, when Mu Xiaojiu tormented Baili Xia to the point of exhaustion, she hadn’t seen much of him in three days.

He seemed fine, always leaving early and returning late.

He didn’t come to the main house these three days; occasionally seen, it was in the yard when he returned from outside.

Not only was Uncle not talkative, but even the old master, who usually wasn’t so quiet, remained silent tonight.

The entire meal was spent almost entirely in silence.

Baili Xia kept thinking about how to find the opportunity after dinner to speak a few words with Mu Xiaojiu alone.

Yet Uncle didn’t look at her tonight, just focused on his meal.

Suddenly, Mu Haoguo rushed in from outside, holding a file folder in his hand.

As soon as he entered the dining room, he went straight to Mu Xiaojiu opposite him, loudly scolding him.

“Mu Xiaojiu, you dare to conspire with outsiders to deceive me out of my money, have you forgotten your surname?”

As soon as these words were spoken, several people in the room who were unaware froze.

All eyes fell on Mu Xiaojiu, waiting for his response.

Mu Xiaojiu seemed as if he didn’t hear, leisurely picking up some food and eating a bite.

The old master furrowed his brow and quickly waved his hand for the butler Feng Gang to dismiss the servants.

When the servants had all withdrawn, the old master looked at Mu Haoguo and asked, “What’s going on? Speak clearly.”

Mu Haoguo glared at Mu Xiaojiu before sitting down at the seat across from him.

“Dad, my brother is really something, he actually colluded with an outside scamming group for my money, and even swindled all my shares.”

Speaking of this, Mu Haoguo’s face turned even redder with anger.

This was his entire fortune, nearly all cheated away!

Cheated away the shares!

How can this be!

Every point of Mu Group’s shares is so valuable; just a single point is enough for average people to eat and drink for several lifetimes.

Both Mu Haoguo and Mu Dongyu have ten points worth of shares, all cheated away; what is this!
