  “Young Madam, thank you for your hard work. Go upstairs and wash up. I’ve made your favorite lion’s head. You can eat it later. ”


  “Thank you, mother Liu! ”


  She thanked her softly, but her eyes instantly teared up.

  In this one inch ink city, perhaps this maid, mother Liu, was the only one who treated her better?

  Perhaps this was her fate. In the Xi family, only the maid, mother Wang, was good to her. She had even grown up by mother Wang’s side. In her heart, mother Wang was even closer to her than her own mother.

  Now that she was married and had her own home, only the maid, mother Liu, was good to her.

  She went upstairs. The room was deserted because there had been no one living in it for a week, and because the windows had not been opened, the room still smelled of oil paint.

  Mu Ru pulled open the heavy floor-to-ceiling curtains to let in the sunlight. She looked at the phone on the bedside table. It was already out of battery, so she quickly took out the charger to plug it in. Then, she went to the closet to get a set of clothes and walked into the bathroom.

  When she came out of the shower, the phone was already on. She turned it on naturally, but when the phone was turned on, she was shocked by the missed calls and text messages that quickly popped up.

  59 missed calls, 39 text messages, all from the same number, mom.

  She could not be bothered with those missed calls. Instead, she used her trembling hands to open the text messages. This was the first time in her 19 years of life that she had received such high-density attention from her mother in such a short period of time.

  She had only been locked in the detention room for a week by Dongfang Mo, yet her mother had called her 59 times and sent her 39 text messages. People who did not understand the situation might think that her mother loved her and cared about her.

  However, she was very clear in her heart that this was definitely not a sign that her mother loved her and cared about her. It should be that her mother had something urgent to look for her.

  As expected, the text message opened and the contents of the message popped out

  Mu Ru, why aren’t you picking up the phone Can you go home for a while Our family is in trouble. Nangong Xun wants us to compensate him for the 200 million he lost in his youth. He said he waited for you for five years, but you went to marry someone else.

  Mu Ru looked at the message and was stunned.

  200 million? That was not a small sum. The Xi family’s assets combined were probably only worth 100 million, right?

  Mu Ru rubbed her swollen head. She had been locked up in the detention room for a week. She was so busy with Dongfang Mo’s bills that she did not rest well. Her eyes were even darker than a panda’s.

  Looking at the time, it was almost noon. She was about to call her mother, but before she could press the redial button, her phone rang in her hand again. Of course, it was still from her mother.

  She was slightly stunned as she pressed the answer button. Before she could speak, her mother’s voice, which was filled with fear and panic, was heard

  “Mu Ru, where are you? ”


  “I’m at home. ”


  Mu Ru answered instinctively, then quickly added,

  “I’m at Dongfang’s house. Mom, what’s the matter? ”


  As the saying went, one should not visit the temple of the three treasures for no reason, and her mother, Lin Xinyue, was the same. She would not call her daughter for no reason. She knew this very well.

  “Mu Ru, can you hurry home and come over? ”


  Lin Xinyue’s voice sounded like she was crying

  “Mu Ru, I beg you, come back. The Xi family… is about to fall… ”
