Chapter 316 Confrontation, Lu Yuan's Confession

ime flowed slowly, the night being gradually pulled open.Sunlight pierced through the clouds, golden rays streaming in from the window and filling the entire room.It's a bit harsh.Mu Xing blinked her...Mu Xing finished gnawing on a piece of rabbit meat and glanced at Fu Lingxiao's bowl, only to find that he hadn't touched the rabbit leg.

"Little uncle, why don't you eat"

She looked up at him.

And the man, in the instant she looked at him, had already withdrawn the coldness from his eyes.

Twilight and lights intertwined, the hazy light blurred his cold and sharp features into a soft illusion, “A little hot.”

"Is it still hot"

Mu Xing walked over and pouted her lips to blow on him. Just as she was about to say it wasn't hot anymore, the man suddenly hugged her waist and leaned down to kiss her plump lips.

Mu Xing: “”

Shen Yue bit down on the rabbit meat, his relaxed expression faltering for a moment. He then lifted his head, turned away, and gazed at the vast, starless night sky. He blinked slowly, a faint smile playing on his lips.

With just a light kiss, the man let go of Mu Xing. His long fingers brushed against her soft lips, "Go eat."

Mu Xing blushed slightly, hummed in agreement, and continued eating the roasted rabbit meat.

Fu Lingxiao had little interest in barbecue. After eating a few pieces that Mu Xing offered him, he put down his chopsticks and bowl.

Watching the little girl eating with relish, he slightly raised his thin lips and poured himself a glass of drink. He held it in his hand, occasionally feeding her a sip, afraid she might choke.

After the little girl was full, Fu Lingxiao called the bodyguard to help Shen Lue pack his things. He then took Mu Xing back to the villa.

"Little uncle, you've only eaten a few pieces of meat, you must not be full. Why don't you go eat some more rice"

Mu Xing dragged the man toward the dining room.

"No, I'm full."

Fu Lingxiao scooped her up in his arms and strode upstairs.

Back in the master bedroom, he took a first-aid kit from the shelf and held Mu Xing on the sofa by the French window. Holding her greasy little hand, he wiped it clean and changed the dressing.

Mu Xing leaned against the man's chest, looking up at his clean and sharp jawline. She wanted to imprint every frame of him in her heart and soul.

Fu Lingxiao felt her focused gaze, retracted his eyes and looked at her, his thin lips slightly curled, "Baby, what are you looking at me doing like this"

"Cute, want to hug."

The little girl smiled mischievously, her face as beautiful as a demoness. Her beautiful deer eyes, like holding a pool of clear spring water, were pure and transparent, sparkling with her longing for him.

Fu Lingxiao's heart pounded, and he lowered his head.

His thin lips brushed against her lip, landing on her chin.

If you want to only taste a little, then that's all you can do.

But who knew, the moment their skin touched, there was still a spark of static electricity.

His Adam's apple bobbed, he fighting the urge to pull away his lips, but the girl's soft lips sought his out, pressing against them. In that instant of mingled warmth and breath, his resistance nearly crumbled.

Her eyes were filled with a hint of seduction, and her thin lips pressed heavily against the soft ones, giving a gentle warning: "Baby, don't tempt me."

Mu Xing looked at the man with soft eyes, "Kiss me again."

She's a real temptress.

Fu Lingxiao's eyes were full of tenderness, his sexy thin lips kissing her soft little mouth, indulging himself briefly.

Their lips were intertwined, a tangle of passionate embraces. Right before losing control, he quickly let go of her, calming his ragged breaths: "Are you satisfied, baby"

Mùxīng's face flushed from his kiss, she bit her hot lips and nodded.

Fu Lingxiao chuckled and lightly rubbed her upturned nose before continuing to dress her wound. After a moment, he suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, baby, Lu Yuan has been found."

Mu Xing, upon hearing this, excitedly sat up straight, "Really Where"

"Already on the way to Beijing, will arrive no later than the day after tomorrow."

That's great!

Looking at the little girl's excited expression, Fu Lingxiao tried his best to ignore the guilt that surfaced in his mind, and faintly pulled down the corner of his lip.

Two days later, early in the morning.

Fu Lingxiao received Pei Rang's phone call and arrived twenty minutes later. He sent everyone else in the villa away and accompanied Mu Xing in the living room, waiting.

Mu Xing sat on the sofa, her eyes constantly glancing towards the door. Ever since she learned that Lu Yuan had been found, she had been eagerly waiting for two days, and finally, she was going to see him!

Fu Lingxiao looked at her eager appearance, raised his hand and rubbed her head, "Don't worry, we'll be there soon."

After a short while, the sound of a car engine came from outside the door.

Mu Xing's eyes lit up, finally here!

Her eyes eagerly fixed on the doorway, footsteps steady as they approached, Pei Rang pushed in a middle-aged man, dusty and weary, into the villa.

"Grandpa Fu."

Fu Lingxiao faintly replied with an "en".

Mu Xing stared at the middle-aged man without blinking. She had looked up Lu Yuan online and seen his photos from twelve years ago.

From his appearance, the middle-aged man before him was indeed Lu Yuan. However, his face was now weathered and gaunt, with an air of weariness all over him. He was a far cry from his former vibrant and dashing self.

"Is it Lu Yuan"

Mu Xing couldn't wait any longer and got straight to the point: "I'm here because of the Mu family matter twelve years ago."

Lu Yuan had kept his eyes lowered since entering the room, calm as a still pond. Upon hearing this, he suddenly lifted his eyelids, “Who are you to the Mu family”

"The daughter of the Mu family."

Mu Xing's eyes were fixed on Lu Yuan, missing none of his expressions.

Lu Yuan's pupils shrank, the hand resting by his side clenched tightly, a look of astonishment etched across his weathered face.

All his actions and expressions betrayed his anxiety and disbelief.

Mu Xing's brow and eyes suddenly turned cold, she stood up and walked in front of him, her gaze sharp as she stared at him, "Is the fire that happened at my house related to you"

Lu Yuan stared at her for a few seconds, then suddenly relaxed and said, "I left the imperial capital half a month before the Mu family fire."

At that moment, the silent man finally spoke in a low voice: "Acts like murder and arson don't always require the perpetrator to be present."

He lowered his crossed long legs, straightened his posture, and wore a cold expression, releasing an aura of intimidating power without anger: "You'd better confess honestly. I don't have much patience."

Lu Yuan squeezed his palm, "I said, I have nothing to do with it."

"Is it"

Fu Lingxiao's cold eyes glared at Lu Yuan. His whole body was enveloped in a chilling aura, his pair of black eyes like the dark sky over a mountain range, deep and devoid of any light, only coldness and ferocity remained.

The hand resting on his knee was long and pale, even the knuckles seeming to emanate an inorganic chill.

“Heard your wife and daughter just died, buried in the ground. You know, I've never dug up a grave and desecrated a corpse before.”

His nonchalant voice, yet it oozed a bone-chilling aura.

Lu Yuan felt his heart constricted as if being gripped, his expression cracking, his voice hoarse, "You will be met with retribution!"

Fu Lingxiao lightly caressed his fingertips wrapped in gauze, a slight smile playing on his lips. His handsome face held a cold and aloof expression, "Only the incompetent would pin their hopes on retribution."

Lu Yuan's expression gradually froze, and after a moment, he suddenly seemed to be struck by something, his spirit scattered, and he said in a disheartened voice, "Okay, I admit it."so she stood up and said, "Let's go together. I've seen this kind of thing many times, not afraid at all, rest assured."After saying that, she directly took He Chao's arm and walked out.Outside the re...
