Mu Lianshen, who had been holding her hand since they left the room, didn't let go until they reached his car. He then asked softly, "Were you scared?"

Seeing her shake her head, he continued, "That person is my superior. He's usually very approachable..."

Fu Xiao also knew that the old man's gaze towards her was neither condescending nor manipulative; it was merely a normal, everyday look. However, the aura he carried was unmistakable—he was a soldier who had experienced true war. She felt no fear, only respect and awe for such a national hero.

Noticing her lack of fear, Mu Lianshen suddenly felt a surge of pride. His child was brave, much like him. He had been unafraid of the old man when he was young...

He opened the passenger door for her, helped her with the seatbelt, and then took his place in the driver's seat, starting the car.

The car drove toward the military district compound...

On the way, Fu Xiao remained silent, deep in thought about the old man...

He had truly sacrificed a lot for the country...

She admired such revolutionary martyrs...

At that moment, the car stopped at the entrance of the military district compound.

As the car came to a halt, Fu Xiao unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out, but Mu Lianshen held her back.

His gaze darkened like a deep abyss, and his voice was filled with meaning: "Are you still resentful towards me?"

Fu Xiao lowered her eyes and remained silent for a moment before answering coolly, "Why shouldn't I resent you?"

She pulled his hand away, opened the car door, and got out.

Mu Lianshen watched her figure grow distant until she disappeared from view, then withdrew his gaze.

He looked up from the driver's seat, lost in thought.

When Fu Xiao returned to the Zhai family home, Zhai Jiu and the others were already there.

They were relieved to see her return safely...

Zhai Jiu was curious about what had been discussed during her meeting, but she only mentioned that it was just a casual chat.

After a bit of casual conversation, they had a meal of authentic fried sauce noodles.

After lunch, everyone retired to their rooms for a nap.

In her room, Fu Xiao took out the ledger from her space and began to study it...

She copied the list from the ledger...

Such important evidence needed to be delivered to the right people.

Meanwhile, at the Mu family home.

Wei Xueze entered the Mu residence with a secretary.

Knocking on Mu Lianshen's office door, he walked in to see the man seated at his desk. He intended to speak but paused upon noticing the presence of the outsider.

The secretary opened some documents and reported various matters before speaking up, "Commander, Mu Wanlan's verdict has been handed down... but..."

Mu Lianshen looked up, "What's wrong?"

The secretary didn't hide anything, "She asked to see you and also said... said that Miss Fu had poisoned her and that she would tell the old man about it..."
