Chapter 653: Just a Pawn

ey weren't from the same world at all. When they treated her as a lover or friend, they could put her on a pedestal. But when they decided to abandon her, in their hearts she became a stone in a latri..."General, I didn't do this!"

Seeing his domineering aura, the Scarfaced man immediately knelt on the ground, hurriedly kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Feng Mu's eyes were filled with killing intent. He gripped the Scarred Man's shoulder tightly, not giving him any chance to escape, and slammed his head down directly!

"Ah!" The scarred man let out a miserable scream, rolled his eyes, and fainted.

Meng Lan stared wide-eyed at this very living person, yet saw them faint before her eyes. A wave of nausea churned in her heart, and her little face paled.

"What's up"

The fat man hurried over when he heard the sound. When he saw Feng Mu, his face changed, and he turned around to run away.

At this moment, Chen Yi had already arrived with the police. He rushed forward and pinned Fatty down, putting handcuffs on him.

Feng Mu tossed the bloodstained brick from his hand and walked toward Meng Lan. As he got closer, he saw her petite frame trembling violently, raising her hands in fierce resistance, "No, don't touch me!"

Feng Mu clutched her arm tightly, "Don't be afraid, it's me."

Meng Lan froze, but she still lowered her head. Her messy hair obscured her vision, and she dared not look at him.

Feng Mu looked at her carefully, his heart filled with guilt. He hugged her horizontally and walked towards the hospital.

……

Wang Ling had already been waiting at the operating room door. When she saw Meng Lan's crimson wounds, her face tightened instantly!

You see, Menglan's baby in her belly hadn't settled yet.

A slight misstep could not only result in losing her, but also harm her own body!

Wang Ling looked at the nurse beside her and hurriedly ordered, "Push him into the operating room quickly."

After giving the order, Wang Ling was about to follow up for treatment, but Feng Mu suddenly grabbed his arm. His usually cold eyes were now filled with tension.

"Save her." His voice trembled, a panic he couldn't hide.

Wang Ling looked at him, her heart only feeling shocked. Love, this thing is truly great, it's rare to see Feng Mu so vulnerable...

"Don't worry, he won't die." Wang Ling patted his shoulder, but the child didn't know... whether he could be saved!

But thinking of Menglan's entrustment, he still didn't say anything about the child.

Bang—

The operating room door slammed shut.

Feng Mu stood alone in the corridor, his hawk-like eyes fixed on the red light that flickered to life. A sense of unease welled up in his chest.

He was listlessly rummaging in his pocket for a cigarette when he was spotted by a passing nurse, who quickly stopped him, saying, "Sir, you can't smoke here."

Feng Mu's good-looking eyebrows furrowed, he could only put the cigarette back into the cigarette case, and then glanced at the time on his watch. It had only been ten minutes.

But he felt like it had been an age.

He never understood the taste of loss before, because he didn't care. He had no vulnerabilities that could bring him down.

Now, watching Menglan being pushed into the operating room, his heart felt hollowed out, leaving only a shell.

"Ding dong—" At that moment, Chen Yi's ringtone broke the silence.

Feng Mu's arm, holding the phone, trembled slightly. After a long moment of contemplation, he pressed the answer button, "Speak."

"General Feng, we interrogated the kidnappers who took Miss Meng. They said it was the old man's orders."

Feng Mu unexpectedly fell silent. He gently closed his eyes, hiding the grief in them, but his tall frame still trembled slightly.

This kidnapping is probably not targeting Menglan, but rather aiming to silence anyone who might reveal the old man's involvement in his son's death.

Feng Mu really can't imagine, his grandfather who had high hopes for him since he was a child, turned out to be so cruel!

Feng Mu called the previous nurse to take care of Meng Lan, and he left the hospital himself, driving towards the old house.

……

Elder Feng had been sitting in the ancestral hall since early this morning, clutching his rosary beads and reciting sutras, but his mind was far from at ease. He couldn't focus his attention no matter how hard he tried.

At that moment, the door was pushed open by the butler who leaned in close to the grandfather's ear and whispered an account.

"Oh no, old master, the plan has failed. Feng Mu rescued Meng Lan."

Master Feng's face was grim. The rosary in his hand suddenly snapped, the beads scattering on the floor with a clatter.

His thin lips pressed together, then suddenly opened.

"Sir, please calm down." The steward hastily bowed his head in apology.

Beads broken.

That is not a good phenomenon.

"Clean up," Grandpa Feng sighed heavily, getting to his feet. A sharp pain shot through his knee.

When people get old, they really aren't useful anymore.

The steward walked forward and helped Old Master Feng back to the main hall of the old house. As soon as they entered, he saw the servants standing in a respectful line, carefully attending to Feng Mu on the sofa.

When he saw Feng Mu, Grandfather Feng's face changed slightly, but he quickly recovered his composure. He asked in a calm voice, "Are you back"

Feng Mu's handsome face was frighteningly cold. His slender fingers picked up the teacup on the table and brought it to his thin lips, taking a light sip.

Just as the steward was about to smooth things over, Old Master Feng gave him a look, sending him back behind him. Then, he strode forward to the tea table.

"When will even the most basic etiquette be gone"

"You taught me from a young age that etiquette is for people worthy of respect," Feng Mu played with the teacup in his hand, lowered his eyes, looked at the rich tea dregs, and sneered, "Does a kidnapper and murderer deserve it"

"Animal!" Old Master Feng pounded his cane angrily, his eyes wide with fury. "I'm doing this for your own good. Menglan staying in the Feng family will only hinder your career."

Feng Mu turned his head to look at him, his face resolute. His heart felt as if it were in an ice cellar, and a faint bitterness rose in his throat as he swallowed.

He considers him to be the closest of family.

For the sake of profit, he killed his own son and harmed so many innocent lives!

For a moment, Feng Mu's eyes were slightly red, and his voice was hoarse as he asked,

"What am I"

Is a pawn used to help him gain profit

"What foolish words are you spouting" Old Master Feng glared at him, his eyes filled with fury. He scolded, "A man of the Feng family goes out to conquer the world, he won't be troubled by love and romance! Put away your sentimentality!"

"From today onwards, you cut off contact with that woman and get engaged to Shanshan, and I might consider letting her go."

"..."

Feng Mu fell silent for a few seconds, then raised his eyes again. There was coldness in his eyes, and his tone became hard,

"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. My life isn't yours to control!"

"You... you little rascal, you've grown wings, haven't you You dare to talk back to me!" Old Master Feng was getting angrier by the second, his face flushed red and his hand clutching his chest.

The steward hurried to help him up and shouted loudly, "Someone, come quickly and bring the old master's medicine!"
