Chapter 1256: Responsible for Me

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

At the sentry post on Tianyu Mountain, the guard on duty stopped Mu Feichi’s car.

Mu Feichi lowered his car window and asked in a stern voice, “What’s going on?”

“Young Commander, I just wanted to let you know that your father and Instructor Yan are here.
They are now at Mu Mansion.”

“Why did you let them through?”

“I didn’t dare to stop them…”

Although all the guards were members of the special forces, they were also soldiers.
Soldiers were meant to obey orders, especially when those orders were given by a commander.
Even though the Young Commander had instructed the guards about letting people up, they were still too afraid to forbid the Commander Senior from entering.

In the passenger seat, Yun Xi could feel Mu Feichi’s anger boiling.
She quickly patted him on the shoulder and coaxed him, “Don’t give them a hard time.
For both your father and Instructor Yan to have come up together, they must have an urgent matter to discuss.
Let’s head up and hear what they have to say, shall we?”

Although she was not yet in Mu Feichi’s family and had no right to intervene in his private affairs, she couldn’t stand him reprimanding his comrades in this way.

After all, these guards in the sentry posts had always looked out for her, so the least she could do was help douse some fires where they were concerned.

It was not Mu Feichi’s intention to make them feel ashamed.
Rather, it was simply because he seldom allowed any outsiders to go up the mountain ever since he had decided that he would make Yun Xi the lady of the house one day.

Unless it was under really special circumstances or involving someone highly notable, no one else was allowed through, not even his father.

Moreover, for him to have come at this moment, he had a pretty good idea of why he had come.

Other people might have been unaware of all the recent movements going on in Jingdu, but Mu Senior had eyes and ears all over the city, and he must certainly know how much Yun Xi was involved in everything that was going on.

This was no trivial matter after all.
The mere lift of her finger could cause a tremendous ripple effect.
Now that she was here sitting in his car, he would never believe that she had suffered at all.

As if their minds were connected, Yun Xi could roughly guess why Mu Feichi’s father was here today.
With a reassuring smile on her face, she said, “Don’t worry.
If your dad asks any questions, I’ll take total responsibility for it.”

She was essentially the person pulling all the strings behind the uproar in Jingdu.
Since she had been the one to propose the idea, she had no qualms about admitting her actions.

Mu Feichi turned his head and glanced at her.
His thin lips arched ever so slightly into a smirk as he said teasingly to her, “What responsibility? I didn’t see you being so proactive when I asked you to be responsible for me.”

“That’s hardly the same thing, Young Commander.”

A certain someone groaned in defeat.
Then he acted as if he was pondering deeply for a moment, and he finally nodded in agreement.
“You’re right.
It’s not the same thing at all.
You shouldn’t need to take responsibility for anything else besides me.”

The car finally stopped at the main entrance to Mu Mansion.
As soon as the butler had heard the low rumbling of a car approaching, he had come out and walked over to the car.
As he opened the iron gates he glanced at the two men sitting in the garden, and then he looked at his young master who had just returned.
He coughed softly and said, “Young Master, your father is here.”

“Yes, I know.” Mu Feichi swept his eyes toward the two visitors, who had not entered the house but were instead sitting in the garden, sipping tea.
The expression on his face became a little more amicable.

Following Mu Feichi’s eyes, Yun Xi glanced at the two men sitting in the garden.
At least they understood Mu Feichi and had not entered his house uninvited.
Fortunately, the weather was pleasant today, and sipping tea in the garden was a pleasant way to pass one’s time.

Dragging Yun Xi along with him, Mu Feichi plopped himself down across from the two visitors.
Without making any small talk, he got right down to business and asked, “To what do I owe this pleasant surprise?”

Mu Chongli put his cup down and looked at his son and then his eyes hovered over Yun Xi.
Those deep, dark eyes sized her up, hinting at a sliver of respect.

The tides had turned in Jingdu lately.
The Han family, one of the big four wealthiest families, seemed to have been suddenly cursed and had been stumbling upon obstacle after obstacle.

The three other wealthiest families had gotten on their feet and had been preparing countermeasures to fight for their families.

However, the Qiaos, a lesser-known family, had been outed as the scapegoat for the Han family’s situation, leaving everyone’s jaws hanging wide open.

Mu Chongli was well aware of all the shameless deeds the Han family was responsible for and had tried to keep hidden.
However, the balance of power among the big four was not an easy thing to break.
Even the President had to tiptoe on glass when it came to them, so he had chosen to stay neutral.

The reason why the President had not made a move was that the real person in power was Mu Feichi.
Calling the shots was not in the President’s cards.

Alas, the person who had made the moves on these families turned out to be just an underaged girl.
