Adopted a humble attitude.
Mu Zhendong’s face flushed from drinking. He put down his glass and, hearing that Bai Lian insisted on appealing, his tone also lightened, “If you disagree, so be it. Your Uncle Xia is here for this matter.
After being released from detention, Wanxuan hadn’t met Xia Yun.
It was only now that she heard Mu Zhendong introduce Xia Yun, and she knew in her heart what kind of person the Mu family were.
Apart from the Gao family and the Chen family that day, Mu Zhendong rarely lowered his stance to many people. His proactive invitation for Xia Yun to dine was a clear indicator to Wanxuan that this Uncle Xia was no simple figure, so she took up Mu Zhendong’s cue: “Uncle Xia.”
Xia Yun glanced at Mu Zhendong and agreed to the title of Uncle Xia, “If it can be settled privately, let’s do so; if not, the problem isn’t too serious.”
After all, how serious can a car accident be, especially since no one died?
Sun Fei wasn’t his concern, but ranked far below him.
Adding to this, the information of the victim was straightforward—an orphan with no power or influence, and one of the future heirs of the Mu family. Xia Yun had a pretty clear idea.
Through Mu Zhendong’s brief revelations, he knew that the Mu family was very likely to secure a major national project.
Wanxuan was aware of Bai Lian’s capabilities.
With Bai Lian were Chen, Xu En, and even Jiang Fulai, whom she had met only once…
Since the police took her for questioning yesterday, she had been in constant fear. Even with Ren Qian showing up at the hospital, Xiaoqi was unwilling to settle privately, and she was genuinely afraid the police would continue their investigation.
Now, hearing the conversation between Mu Zhendong and Xia Yun, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at Mu Zhendong and Xia Yun, she spoke up, “Uncle, I’ll make another appointment with Director Zhou.”
“Director Zhou?” Xia Yun was slightly puzzled.
Mu Zhendong smiled, “The Associate Dean of the Physics Department at Jiang University, he was quite talked about in Chang’an District during the New Year.”
Xia Yun was invigorated, knowing what Jiang University’s Physics Department represented.
Mu Zhendong returned to the Mu family to find Mu Yining.
At midnight, Mu Yining was still handling work.
“It’s just a car accident, how big can it be,” Mu Zhendong, knowing Mu Yining was familiar with Bai Lian, spoke to her, “Wanxuan is after all our family member, and Bai Lian is causing such a commotion, affecting family harmony.”
He was already getting impatient with Bai Lian making a big deal out of a minor issue with Wanxuan.
Right now, for Mu Zhendong and the entire Mu family, Wanxuan was very important. Whether the Mu family’s research project could rise or not, Wanxuan played a pivotal linkage role with the Gao and Xu families.
As for Bai Lian… she didn’t belong to the Mu family, and didn’t really count as one of them.
As Mu Zhendong stepped out of the study, he looked back slightly, his tone more serious, “Moreover, I’ve already brought in Xia Yun to handle this. There will only be one outcome. If we settle now, he can still get some money; if it’s too late, he’ll only get medical expenses.”

The next day, early morning.
Jiang Fulai got up at six o’clock, around the same time as Bai Lian.
As he opened door 302, Bai Lian was just opening door 303.
Bai Lian wore a white track suit with the sleeves rolled up twice, exposing silver metal.
Her hair was tied at the back of her head with a red ribbon, a casual and carefree look. Her dark eyes gazed at Jiang Fulai, as always, calm, “Going for a morning run, Teacher Jiang?”
Dressed in a white thread garment and holding breakfast, Jiang Fulai accompanied her downstairs, “Not going today, finish your run early and come back for breakfast.”
He followed Bai Lian to the building entrance, watching her figure recede into the distance until a gust of cold wind blew past, making him stunned. He then went to ring the doorbell of 103.
Ji Heng was clearly just waking up.

“Grandpa, good morning,” Jiang Fulai greeted elegantly from outside.
Very calm and composed.
Ji Heng, with a blank expression, looked at Jiang Fulai for a long while, finally stepping aside silently to let him in.
Jiang Fulai accurately arranged the breakfast.
While Ji Heng was brushing his teeth, Jiang spoke up, “Xiaoqi had a car accident.”
“Cough, cough…” Ji Heng choked on his mouthwash.
Barely finishing brushing his teeth, and after wiping his mouth with a towel, he returned to the living room, frowning as he looked at Jiang Fulai, “How is he?”
The Ji family was very concerned about Xiaoqi.
“Although he nearly died on the operating table, he was resuscitated,” Jiang Fulai did not conceal the medical condition, “But his leg will be affected afterward.”
Ji Heng looked up, shocked.
He remembered Xiaoqi was an orphan, “Is he alone in the hospital right now?”
Jiang Fulai picked up a teapot beside him with his long fingers, poured water for Ji Heng, pushed it over, and fell silent for a moment, “Xiaoqi is a friend she values highly, as you know.”
