An Muyao bent down and hugged Lu Lehua, whispering softly, “Mom, I will always stand by your side, whether you decide to divorce Dad or not. We’ll always be on the same page.”
Lu Lehua’s eyes welled up with tears as she choked out, “Yaoyao, you’re the one who loves Mom the most!”
“You’re my beloved mother. If I don’t cherish you, who will?” An Muyao patted her back, hiding her calculations and sarcasm where Lu Lehua couldn’t see.
To An Muyao, what Lu Lehua said was all just empty words.
Back when they sent her abroad, she already knew that they cared about themselves the most.
And the only person she could rely on was herself.
What was family, anyway?
To her, it was something to be used.
An Muyao went to the water dispenser and poured a glass of water. With Lu Lehua’s back turned to her, she discreetly dropped a white pill into the water.
The pill produced a few bubbles in the water and quickly dissolved.
An Muyao swirled the glass of water and walked over to Lu Lehua, handing her the glass. “Mom, have some water. You should rest for a while; you’re not feeling well. After you wake up, we’ll go settle the score with that homewrecker.”
“Alright,” Lu Lehua nodded, then took the glass and drank the water. She felt dizzy and lightheaded as she went upstairs to rest.
After she entered her room, An Muyao returned to her own.
Coming back to this room after half a year, she felt like it was a world away.
She used to consider the An family her safe haven and had invested all her emotions here.
But now…
An Muyao sneered.
She opened the closet and placed her luggage inside.
Just as she finished, her phone rang.
An Muyao’s expression changed, and she quickly took out her phone and answered.
“Mr. James!” Her eyes filled with love and admiration, but she restrained her excitement in her tone, making her voice sound gentle and appealing.
Mr. James spoke coldly, “An Muyao, I don’t have much time left for you. If you can’t get Nan Yan to take the medicine within three days, you’ll lose your value to me. I won’t care about whether you live or die at that point.”
A hint of panic flashed across An Muyao’s face, but she quickly composed herself and clenched her teeth. “Mr. James, rest assured, I will make sure she takes that medicine as soon as possible.”
“After completing the mission, you can contact me.”
“Yes, Mr. James!”
Before An Muyao could finish her sentence, she heard a ‘beep’ from the other end.
She paused for a moment, then took out a small password-protected safe from her luggage.
Entering the code, the safe opened, revealing only a vial of refrigerated medicine.
The pale blue liquid appeared dreamy and beautiful in the white cold mist, as if a piece of the starry sea had been captured in the bottle.
However, An Muyao looked at the vial with extreme caution and fear.
Once she confirmed the safety of the medication, she locked the safe again.
Then she became worried.
How could she get Nan Yan to take this medicine?
Today, she had tried to apologize to Nan Yan, but there was no change in her attitude, and she showed no gratitude.
It seemed that she would have to use someone else to get her to take the medicine.
Among the An family members, the only ones Nan Yan would accept were Old Master An and An Xiran. The others probably wouldn’t be able to do it.
The old man was half-dead now, and the only one who could do this was An Xiran.
So, she decided to make An Xiran her puppet…
