"Mom, if you want to blame something, blame it on me. I purposely concealed it, and also prevented Zhang Xiao from revealing her true ident.i.ty." Mu Chen blamed all of his mistakes.

In fact, he was indeed deliberately hiding it.

"If Xiao Er doesn't say it herself, are you planning to keep it a secret until Mother discovers it?" Zhao Zi Ru's tone was still light and cold, it was hard to tell how she would treat Zhang Xiao.

Mu Chen pursed his lips and said: "Regarding the matter of Big Brother and Tong Tong, everyone of us had vented our anger on Zhang Hao Tian. In the beginning, Zhi Yuan and I had always been on Zhang Xiao's side. Seeing Zhang Xiao being so good to Mu Ya and treating his as if he were his own flesh and blood, the two of us were slowly moved by her and changed our att.i.tudes towards her. If it's like that, then it's even more so for Mom. I was afraid that if Mom found out that he was Zhang Hao Tian's daughter, it would make things difficult for her … Mu Ya really cannot leave her now. "

He could not leave Zhang Xiao now.

It felt like three years had pa.s.sed since he'd last seen her.

He didn't even know how he had survived the month he had escaped from.

"Mu Ya couldn't leave her, and it wasn't because of you. You knew full well that she is not Mu Ya's mother, but you still invited her back so that Mu Ya would be more attached to her. " Zhao Zi Ru snappily refuted, then bitterly smiled: "As a parent, as long as your children are well, I will do it for them. Mom isn't blaming you, it's just that what you did last time wasn't really good. Mu Ya was also weird, she only recognized her. "

It was also because her grandson only recognized Zhang Xiao that this series of events had happened. Only then did she know that Zhang Xiao was Xiao Er, Zhang Hao Tian's daughter.

Mu Chen remained silent.

He did it for Mu Ya. As long as Mu Ya no longer cried, even if it was Zhang Hao Tian's daughter, he would personally go and invite her back.

Now, he didn't regret his impulsive decision.

"Mother, even though Zhang Xiao is Zhang Hao Tian's daughter, it has nothing to do with the car accident one year ago. She had already left the Zhang Family a long time ago, and she did not even know that the one who crashed into her father was her big brother. She is innocent. It's fine if you are angry at Zhang Hao Tian, but you don't have to anger Zhang Xiao anymore. "

Zhao Zi Ru stared at Mu Chen with s.h.i.+ning eyes, and asked honestly: "You have already fallen deeply in love with Xiao Er, right?"

"Right."

Mu Chen nodded in acknowledgement without hesitation.

Zhao Zi Ru laughed bitterly, "Tong Tong has left. You are still young, and Mu Ya is still so young, so the father and daughter pair really do need a good woman to take care of. Now... Mom is always a little upset, a little conflicted, Mom can't sleep, your dad advised me many times, but I still can't sleep, I have to talk to you and say what's on my mind before I can sleep. "

Mu Chen had a bad premonition.

"Chen, if Mom asks you to give up on Xiao Er, are you willing?"

"I don't want to."

Zhao Zi Ru laughed even more bitterly, "Mom knew you don't want to. Xiao Er is a good girl, she is worthy of your love. When she was young, it was you who picked her up. The moment you brought her back, she stuck to you, eating and sleeping, just like how Mu Ya stuck to her. Now that I think about it, that's your destiny. After breaking the news for twenty years, we were able to reunite with each other, and now you have developed feelings for her. "

"Mom."

Mu Chen called out softly, his eyes meeting his mother's. He carefully asked again, "You want me to give up on Zhang Xiao, and let Zhang Xiao and my big brother develop more?"

Zhao Zi Ru was a little startled. Was her meaning that obvious? Oh, yes, she had heard him at the door when she was talking to her eldest son. With great difficulty, Zhao Zi Ru nodded her head. She no longer dared to look at her little son because she was an eccentric mother. She felt that her son was healthy and well. As long as he searched with all his heart, he would be able to find even better girls, and his eldest son was still unable to walk like a normal person. He lacked a smart and gentle person like Zhang Xiao.

She wanted Zhang Xiao and Mu Yi to become lovers, husband and wife.

Mu Zhen Bang had reminded her more than once to not interfere with his son's marriage and to not get involved with other people's affairs. Her parents always thought that his arrangements were for the good of their children, but he had never asked Children if they needed the same kind of arrangements as her parents. However, this thought sprouted in Zhao Zi Ru's heart, sprouting out like a bud. Especially when Mu Yi regretfully hammered her own legs, without anyone helping him, she was able to persuade Mu Yi to become calm.

She felt that in this world, other than Leng Chu Yun, the only person that could bring happiness to Mu Yi was him.

"Mom, mom, mom just wants to … "Hmm, it's not like mom either …" Faced with Mu Chen's stare, Zhao Zi Ru stuttered. She couldn't speak a complete sentence because she was in the wrong, and she had let down his younger son. She had only considered his older son and ignored his presence and the Little granddaughter.

She's an eccentric mother...

Zhao Zi Ru's heart was filled with self-blame, she really did not want to treat Mu Chen like this. Mu Chen was her son too, the back of his hand was all meat.

Mu Chen did not speak, and only looked at his mother. He had seen how much his mother blamed herself, but he had also seen how her mother leaned towards her big brother. He did not seek for fairness, and he knew that it was impossible for it to be so. Every finger had a length of ten fingers, so naturally, parents would be biased towards their children.

He knew that her big brother had been raised as her heir. His parents had high hopes for her big brother. It was normal for them to favor him. Regarding other things, no matter how much his parents liked him, he didn't care. After all, Big Brother doted on them a lot, and his bros treated him with respect. He also hoped that Big Brother would be able to obtain happiness, but to make him give up on Zhang Xiao and help Big Brother achieve her happiness was something he couldn't do.

His brother had also said that he only treated Zhang Xiao as her sister and would not fight over Zhang Xiao with him.

His eldest brother doted on him and his second brother, and was even more unwilling to base his happiness on his younger brother's pain.

Her brother definitely did not know that her mother had come to talk to him about it alone. Fortunately her brother was not present, and Zhang Xiao was not present either.

The two brothers had also talked about how their mother would react once she found out about Zhang Xiao's true origins. Mu Yi had said it before, her mother might not vent her anger on Zhang Xiao, nor would she drive him away, but it was possible that she would betroth Zhang Xiao to Mu Yi.

Unexpectedly, Mu Yi's words really hit the mark.

"Mom, I don't blame you. Ten fingers have different lengths. I know that."

After a long while, Mu Chen finally managed to spit out a sentence softly. However, it made Zhao Zi Ru's face turn pale from the pain, in the end, she had injured her youngest son …
