Mu Tiantian smiled and glanced at her sister Mu Haiyun, who had been completely ignored by their father Mu Yi from beginning to end, and nodded.
"Sister, shall we go over there?"
Mu Haiyun’s face still carried a gentle and elegant smile, seemingly unaffected by her father’s neglect.
As for how she truly felt inside, only she would know.
"Dad, when did you get back?"
Mu Haiyun smiled lightly as she looked at Mu Yi, speaking as she always did when seeing him, with a gentle and dignified deanor typical of an upper-class lady.
Mu Yi nodded, his expression slightly softened, as he shifted his gaze from Mu Tiantian to Mu Haiyun.
"Dad just got back not long ago. Haiyun, your sister just returned, and she’s been away for years. She’s not familiar with many things, so as her sister, you should take good care of her, understand?"
Before Mu Haiyun could respond, Mu Yi had already diverted his gaze to look at Mu Tiantian again.
"Co over here, Tiantian, sit with Dad over here!"
The "okay" that was on Mu Haiyun’s lips no longer needed to be said.
As for Mu Tiantian, she bead at Mu Yi and replied, "Okay."
Old Madam Mu placed her teacup heavily on the table before her, making a loud bang.
"Having us all wait until now, Tiantian, what is going on with you?"
As Old Madam Mu erupted, Mu Yi quickly spoke in an extrely cold voice before Mu Tiantian could respond.
"Mom, Tiantian just ca back from abroad. She’s still dealing with jet lag, so it’s normal for her to be a bit late. There’s no need to take this opportunity to lash out!"
"You!"
Old Madam Mu was so angry she almost fell backward. Despite her distant relationship with her son over the years, he never openly defied her.
And now...
For the sake of that illegitimate child...
The more Old Madam Mu thought about it, the angrier she beca, and the worse her expression turned.
Old Madam Mu never imagined that after her son’s defiance, it wouldn’t end there.
Staring at Old Madam Mu, Mu Yi’s face grew even colder.
"Mom, I respect you as my mother, and the past events have happened, and I can’t change them. But if anyone tries to stop from treating Tiantian well, don’t bla for being ruthless!"
"You..."
Old Madam Mu trembled all over, clearly furious.
Mu Qinghan frowned at his son and glanced at his old wife.
"Mu Yi!"
Mu Yi gave a cold snort, not even sparing a glance at Old Madam Mu, took his young daughter’s hand, and sat down beside the dining table.
With his son on his left and his young daughter on his right, for the first ti in years, Mu Yi finally felt he could slightly soothe his empty and lonely heart.
Seeing his eldest daughter still standing there, Mu Yi spoke slowly.
"Haiyun, co over and sit down to eat."
Mu Haiyun finally gathered herself. Evidently, nothing like this had ever happened before, and it was stimulating her nerves.
"Oh, Dad."
Seeing her son sitting as if nothing had happened between those two illegitimate children, while her granddaughter, whom she had raised, was set aside, Old Madam Mu was even more enraged.
"Mu Yi, do you even consider your mother!"
Just as Mu Yi was about to speak, Shen Xin, who had been silent all along and had a calm deanor, slowly spoke up.
"Mom, I’ll help you over to eat."
Old Madam Mu avoided Shen Xin’s assistance, her voice extrely angry.
"What is there to eat, I’m already full of anger!"
Shen Xin pressed her lips together, frowned, and looked at Mu Yi and then at her daughter Mu Haiyun.
