CHAPTER 418: CHAPTER 398: THE GRAND FINALE (PART 1): DON’T BE AFRAID

"Wicked woman!" Hanhan screamed at Fu Mulan.

"Hanhan." Jin Jumo’s tears kept falling, her heart was about to shatter.

She utterly despised herself!

Why did she always let her child fall into such dangerous situations?

Why couldn’t her child live a safe, ordinary life like children from other families?

Jin Jumo hated!

Hated herself, hated Fu Mulan, hated everyone who relentlessly pursued and entangled them!

Fu Mulan looked at Hanhan, her eyes momentarily dazed.

He resembled that person so much!

Perhaps she could keep him.

She was destined never to get the person she most wanted in this lifetime, so why not keep the child who most resembled him by her side?

Fu Mulan suddenly became excited, stared at Hanhan, and said, "You’re called Hanhan, right? Come over here."

"Uh..."

Jin Jumo’s pupils constricted, looking at Fu Mulan in terror, "You, what are you going to do? Fu Mulan, what are you going to do?!"

Fu Mulan frowned, staring fiercely at Jin Jumo, "Look how nervous you are. I just temporarily changed my mind; I don’t want his life anymore. I thought you’d be happy."

"What are you really trying to do?" Jin Jumo didn’t relax an inch, growling.

Fu Mulan turned her gaze back to Hanhan, her eyes showing some longing, "Haven’t you noticed? He resembles Mo Chen so much. In another decade or so, might they look exactly alike? If I keep Hanhan by my side, can’t I pretend it’s Mo Chen accompanying me?"

"Why bother with all that!"

Fu Mulan had barely finished speaking when a low, raptor-like male voice suddenly interrupted.

"Mo Chen, Mo Chen, you’re finally here."

It was Fang Jingyi who reacted first, looking with fiery excitement at the cold man walking in from the door.

Rong Mochen didn’t even glance at Fang Jingyi.

He took a few large steps forward, picked up Xixi, who was hiding stiffly behind Rong Zhengfeng, and placed her into Rong Zhengfeng’s arms, his dark eyes locked onto Rong Zhengfeng’s now somewhat excited eyes, "Grandpa, take Xixi and Hanhan upstairs."

"About Momo..."

"Go upstairs!" Rong Mochen said in a deep voice.

"...Alright." Rong Zhengfeng nodded hastily, holding Xixi in one arm and leading Hanhan upstairs.

Fang Jingyi stood frozen in place, a bit bewildered.

Rong Zhengfeng walked a few steps, then turned back to glare at Fang Jingyi.

Only then did Fang Jingyi realize belatedly and hurried after them.

However, after a few steps, Fu Mulan’s chilling voice drifted out, "Mrs. Rong, you can’t just leave like that, you have to stay."

Fang Jingyi’s spine went cold, looking at Fu Mulan with horror.

Fu Mulan grabbed Jin Jumo’s neck with one hand and extended the hand holding a gun toward Fang Jingyi, staring at her murderously.

Fang Jingyi’s legs went weak, her eyes flushed as she cautiously looked at Rong Mochen, "Mo Chen."

Rong Mochen remained indifferent, glancing at Rong Zhengfeng.

Rong Zhengfeng furrowed his brows tightly, paused for a few seconds, and finally took Xixi and Hanhan upstairs first.

Sounds of doors opening and closing came from upstairs.

Rong Mochen’s dark eyes eased slightly, his brows furrowed, staring at Fu Mulan.

From the moment he appeared, he hadn’t looked at Jin Jumo once.

Jin Jumo’s eyes glistened with tears, she relaxed greatly as Rong Zhengfeng took Xixi and Hanhan safely away from this dangerous scene, looking at Rong Mochen, her nose couldn’t help but sting.

Fu Mulan gazed longingly at Rong Mochen, her every gaze infused with deep passion, "Mo Chen, you’ve come."

Rong Mochen’s eyes grew colder, "Fu Mulan, since we met, how have I treated you?"

Fu Mulan was taken aback, a look of desolation unbidden on her face, "You’ve been very cold to me, aside from business affairs, you haven’t even spoken many words to me."

"Since that’s the case, you should know, I have no romantic feelings for you. If not for your father’s old friendship, I would’ve never made you my assistant!" Rong Mochen’s tone carried not a trace of warmth.

Fu Mulan turned pale, painfully staring at Rong Mochen, "Why do you have to speak so heartlessly! At this point, do you think you can wash your hands of this?"

"Why can’t I?"

Rong Mochen scolded sternly, "Fu Mulan, we’ve always been just superior-subordinate. You should do your job as an employee, but you repeatedly meddle in my life, even trying to destroy me..."

"I did not!"

Fu Mulan suddenly screamed, her corners of her eyes reddening as if bleeding might come the next moment, "I never wanted to destroy you! I love you, I love you too much!"

Mo Chen, don’t you understand even now? This woman is entirely unworthy of you! She’s selfish, cowardly, she can easily abandon you to be with another man!? She’s unworthy, unworthy of your love, she’s just a slut..."
