Chapter 622: Feng Mu Becomes More and More Uncontrollable

pretend I didn't ask anything just now." 。" It can be considered as an indirect acknowledgment. 。"Then... you're really the daughter of Jian Guo The eldest Miss Xiang" Zhou Miao swallowed hard,...He had to admit, Menglan's cooking was right up his alley.

Dream Orchid saw that he wasn't picky and stopped fussing. She picked up a bowl and filled it with rice for him, "Well, my little brother woke up, I think I should celebrate."

After listening, Feng Mu's hand holding the chopsticks froze in mid-air. He glanced at the delicious food on the table and added sarcastically, "The Hongmen Banquet" He sneered.

Meng Lan placed the meal in front of him, without sitting down. She gazed into his eyes, which were devoid of any emotion. "General Feng, you're overthinking things. I couldn't possibly afford to treat you to a banquet like the Hongmen feast. However, this is also my last meal for you. Thank you for taking care of me these past few days."

She emphasized the last sentence, her tone laced with a hint of amusement.

Bang!

Feng Mu slammed his chopsticks onto the table and looked at her, a cold smile on his face. "Do you really think the Feng family is a place where you can come and go as you please"

"What do you mean" Menglan's breath was cold, clutching the fists at her sides, her gaze puzzled. "Feng Mu, I haven't lived in the Feng family for nothing. I signed the contract you drafted and cooked dinner for you on time every day..."

She has done everything she needed to do, he has no reason to further restrict her personal freedom!

"Hmph." Feng Mu put down his chopsticks, his ten fingers interlocked beneath his jaw, and his eyebrows furrowed in displeasure. "Didn't you see the clause in the agreement that states you can't leave the Feng family without my permission"

Meng Lan stared in shock, her eyes wide. In a short while, Feng Mu ordered the maid to bring the contract from his study. After reading it, her face turned pale.

On the last page of the agreement, as expected, was that clause in the contract!

So... he had everything planned out from the beginning Did he never intend to leave in the first place

"You despicable wretch!" Menglan angrily tore the agreement to shreds, tossing it away as if her entire heart had sunk into darkness.

Feng Mu, however, had a nonchalant expression on his face, taking the beef from the table and chewing it slowly and deliberately.

"Meng Lan, you are too naive. At my command, your brother will be dead by tonight." He sneered, "I told you, his life and death are in your hands."

Menglan's eyes were bloodshot, her anger bubbling over. Despicable!

She thought that once her brother woke up, she would be redeemed. But this contract shattered her hope once again, like a huge cage, one she built with her own hands!

She raised her hand, about to slap Feng Mu in the face, but before she could make contact, her wrist was tightly grasped. All she saw was a particularly cold look in his eyes, "You better behave yourself, my patience is limited."

Meng Lan met his gaze, the hope in her eyes gradually fading, and suddenly burst into laughter, tears welling up. "Alright, Feng Mu, you're amazing. For your brother, I'll stay."

Feng Mu watched as she compromised, his eyes narrowed slightly. Looking at her expression, he felt a pang of discomfort in his heart.

“But you remember, Feng Mu, I won’t let you bully me anymore. I will personally investigate the medical accident from that year. I believe my father could never have committed murder.” Meng Lan's eyes were unwavering, each word punctuated with a sharp edge. “If my father was really wrongfully imprisoned, what do you have to offer as compensation!”

After letting out a low growl, Menglan reached out to wipe away the tears from the corner of her eye and turned to leave the restaurant.

After she left, the restaurant instantly fell silent. Even the warm yellow lights couldn't dispel the loneliness. Feng Mu's brows furrowed, and he unconsciously recalled Meng Lan's despairing face in his mind. His heart ached inexplicably.

Does he really think he's sick

I definitely need to get a full checkup at Wang Ling's place sometime.

Having lost his appetite for the meal, he ordered the servants to wrap up Menglan's cooked dishes in plastic wrap and put them in the refrigerator. Who knows when this woman would run away again He wouldn't be able to eat such delicious food anymore.

Feng Mu didn't go to the study as usual, but walked out of the villa and drove to the company, ordering his assistant to come to the office.

"General Feng, do you have anything to order" The assistant rushed over from home late at night, not even bothering to take off his pajamas.

Feng Mu hummed softly, half of his body submerged in the warm yellow light. His long fingers gripped tightly and he opened his eyes suddenly, "Reconnect with the police station that investigated the medical accident back then, overturn and re-investigate."

Overturn and recheck...

The assistant's eyes widened suddenly, "General Feng, what did you find out Are you sure you want to know"

When this topic was brought up, Feng Mu's face flashed with annoyance, his fingers clenching tightly. "Go do your own thing."

"Yes." The assistant nodded hurriedly, but her heart still felt astonished.

Over the years, the medical accident that caused his parents' death has remained a wound on Feng Mu's heart. No one dared to mention it, so why did he suddenly think of investigating it again

Who on earth could possibly influence Feng Mu!

Watching the assistant leave, Feng Mu raised his hand to tightly squeeze his brow, a trace of regret flashing in his heart.

Even he didn't know why, after Menglan's words, he suddenly felt that the medical accident from back then was really suspicious and decided to investigate it all over again.

It seems that since Menglan moved into the Feng family, he has felt the long-lost warmth of 'home', and his emotions towards this woman have become increasingly out of control.

Damn!

Wouldn't he be bought off with a few home-cooked meals

……

Fearing that Feng Mu would force her again like last night, Menglan locked her door all night.

She fell into a drowsy sleep lying in bed, but by the middle of the night she sat up from her bed, gazing out the window at the scenery, her heart filled with a sense of sadness.

Needless to say, Feng Mu would be under constant surveillance in the days to come.

She is now no different from being locked in a cage.

Meng Lan was truly stifled being locked in the room, so she got out of bed and went to the backyard to get some air. Staring at the clear lake bottom, she felt her chest loosen a bit.

Meng Lan wasn't surprised that Wang Zhi Shan would come looking for her, but she didn't expect her to use such a bold and despicable way.

Meng Lan was brought to the car by a group of black-clad bodyguards who suddenly broke into the Feng family's home. She sat in the back seat, her heart pounding with anxiety. All she could do was raise her finger and pinch the root of her thigh, using pain to force herself to stay calm.

"Our young mistress has invited you, you'd best cooperate!"

Meng Lan raised her eyes and looked at them faintly, "Do you know this is kidnapping I'm Feng Mu's person, dare you touch me"

The bodyguard, likely briefed beforehand, scoffed dismissively and drove her away. After about half an hour, they arrived at the Wang residence.

Meng Lan was pushed out of the car by them, almost stumbling and falling!
