Chapter 1160 Certain of Victory (1)

Mu Ruohai lived inside a villa in a nearby town.

As he knew that the elders of the Goodman family were going to come over, Mu Ruohai arranged someone to go and meet them.

The first person to arrive was Anna.

Her blonde hair, blue eyes, and beautiful face attracted a lot of attention wherever she went.

Inside the villa, Mu Ruohai sat in front of a stone table as he sipped away at a cup of Longjing tea.

Uncle, what tricks are you up to this time? Anna asked in a not so polite tone. She asked for Mu Ruohais purpose straight away.

Anna did not have a good impression of Mu Ruohai. This man had too much ambition and he was always up to no good. In fact, Anna even suspected that her aunts death had something to do with this man. However, she could not find any evidence to prove this.

I helped the Goodman family locate Jian Yiling. Shouldnt you be happy? Mu Ruohai asked Anna. He did not answer Annas question.

Jian Yiling went missing for two entire years. During this time, in addition to the Zhai family and the Jian family searching for her, the Goodman family also looked for her. This was because Jian Yiling disappeared with the Goodman family compa.s.s.

Uncle, youre still suspected of murder. Furthermore, theres bad blood between you and her. Why would you so kind to look for her?

Well, you guys only care about the compa.s.s in Jian Yilings hands. Rules shouldnt be set in stone. People should be flexible. If we get the compa.s.s, we can find the legendary treasure.

Tch, stop thinking about it, Anna snickered. You can do whatever you want. However, if you do something out of line, I will use our family rules to punish you. Even though my aunt is dead, you were still married into our family. Therefore, youre forever subject to the rules of the Goodman family.

Youre as arrogant as ever. Oh? Whats the problem with that? Does the truth hurt? Anna taunted Mu Ruohai. The person you really liked was never my aunt. Instead, you liked a woman named Bai Xun. However, you lost to Zhai Bochen. Other than graduating from the same university and other from your studies being as good as his, you were in no shape or form a match against Zhai Bochen. However, you were not willing to accept fate. And thus, you used pretty language and cheesy words to trick my aunt. Thats how you married into the Goodman family. Thats how you got the power to plan Zhai Bochens death.

Mu Ruohai came from a rather ordinary family. Even though his family conditions werent bad, when compared to the Zhai family, it was akin to comparing the clouds to mud.

When he was in university, he always envied Zhai Bochen. Zhai Bochen had nothing he had to worry about in life.

What made his jealousy reach its heights was when Zhai Bochen and Bai Xun got married.

He went crazy when he saw the woman he liked marry someone else.

However, he couldnt change anything. He was powerless.

And thus, he made up a plan for revenge. The G.o.ds gave him the opportunity to meet someone from the Goodman family. And that person was Annas aunt. Even though the Goodman family was against Annas aunt marrying Mu Ruohai, Annas aunt insisted. After becoming a member of the Goodman family, Mu Ruohai mustered enough power to plan Zhai Bochens death.

A crack appeared in Mu Ruohais smile.

However, Annas smile remained as bright as ever: Uncle, please dont worry. After all, these are just my guesses. I have no evidence. If I did have evidence, even if you dont end up in jail, I will make sure youre booted out of the Goodman family.

Mu Ruohai sneered before he replied: Your imagination is quite rich. If you dont end up becoming the heir of the Goodman family, you should considering writing novels.
