An Xiaoyu went inside, and soon after, Chu Mucheng’s car also arrived and drove directly into the villa.
The gate slowly closed, leaving only the endless darkness outside, as if ready to devour everything.
Inside the gate, the Chu Family was in complete chaos.
After entering, An Xiaoyu saw Chu Yihong and Su Linxue sitting in the living room, waiting for their return.
An Xiaoyu greeted them first.
Su Linxue’s beautiful and delicate face also showed a hint of confusion. Seeing An Xiaoyu come in, she quickly invited her to sit beside her and then took her hand.
"Xiaoyu, what’s really going on with you and Mucheng? Why would Mucheng suddenly say those things tonight?"
An Xiaoyu shook her head.
"Mom, there’s nothing between us! As you know, we... have never gotten along since we were children. As for why he said those things tonight, you should ask him!"
At this moment, Chu Mucheng strode in.
When Chu Yihong and Su Linxue saw Chu Mucheng with a bandaged head and his right hand dripping with fresh blood, their expressions immediately changed.
"Mucheng, who did this to you?"
Chu Mucheng glanced at An Xiaoyu with his eyes, "I injured myself!"
An Xiaoyu couldn’t help but lower her head.
Chu Yihong and Su Linxue naturally noticed something off.
"Xiaoyu, do you know?"
An Xiaoyu took a deep breath and decided to tell the truth.
"That day, I didn’t see the traffic light change when I was crossing the street. I was almost hit by a car, but Chu Mucheng saved me, and as a result... he got hurt!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yihong’s refined handsome face showed a serious expression.
"Mucheng, come to the study with me!"
Hearing this, Chu Yihong left first, and Chu Mucheng glanced at An Xiaoyu, his expression dark and unclear, then followed to the study.

Chu Yihong sat upright and tense.
"Look at the state you’re in! What exactly are you trying to do? Thinking of marrying Xiaoyu? You actually dared to speak such words? Do you realize that legally, you two are siblings, understand?"
"Siblings? Not biological siblings, who says we can’t marry?"
Chu Yihong suddenly stood up, slamming his hand heavily on the table.
"This is outrageous! I won’t allow it!"
Chu Mucheng lowered his gaze, but his expression was resolute.
"Dad, marriage is my own business. Your disapproval... is useless!"
As soon as Chu Mucheng finished, he felt a draft of air. He quickly dodged, and then heard the teacup crash against the wall, making a sharp sound.
Chu Mucheng was startled. This time, Chu Yihong was indeed very angry!
"You scoundrel, are you trying to kill me with anger? Xiaoyu has been with our family since she was little, I’ve always treated her as my own daughter, everyone in the neighborhood knows. Now, you actually want to marry Xiaoyu, isn’t that a complete joke?"
Chu Yihong felt his breathing grow uneven, and even his blood pressure spiked suddenly.
He knew his son had always been rebellious, often not complying with his wishes, but this matter was just too outrageous for him to accept.
Yet, Chu Mucheng calmly stated, "Now I know, the person I truly love is her."
At these words, Chu Yihong’s face immediately filled with shock and surprise.
"What are you saying? Love her?"
Chu Mucheng, without dodging Chu Yihong’s stern and icy gaze, affirmed: "Yes, I love her!"
