Mr. Yuan's Dilemma: Can't Help Falling in Love with You Chapter 168

There was probably no one who knew Yuan Xuan's personality better than Mu Chenyan .

There was a hint of stubbornness within his cold arrogance and he was extremely intelligent . When he firmly believed in something, he would not be easily swayed by the influences of the outside world .

The people outside were all in awe of Luo Hai's prince of the Yuan Family to a certain degree . Mu Chenyan had heard about this although she did not concern herself with Yuan Xuan's work matters .

Previously, there were several junior underlings from the aristocratic families that he managed who were jeopardizing public interests . They were either thrown into prison or exiled from Luo Hai . This temporarily became the talk of the town .

The Old Masters from the aristocratic families who begged for leniency also suffered losses because of Yuan Xuan . Moreover, two of them were so furious that they ended up in the hospital . This shook Luo Hai but the elders of the various major clans were unable to voice their objections towards Yuan Xuan .

When he went on holiday to Liu Li Villa, they took this opportunity to collaborate and pay him a visit to get 'justice' . They attempted to use Zhong Heng International's other stockholders to oppress Yuan Xuan into submission .

On the second day, the stocks of the organizations that belonged to several aristocratic families who had led this ended up crashing all the way . Thus, no one dared to behave in a hasty manner anymore .

In addition to the trivial things that happened in their daily lives, the trauma that Mu Chenyan previously experienced in prison caused her heart to never doubt Yuan Xuan's ruthlessness .

Moreover, the thing that Mu Feng was previously writing about was related to Yuan Tangbai's earth-shattering secret .

Yuan Xuan had always treated his father as his role model and he respected every aspect of him . Situations like this allowed him to understand Yuan Tangbai's flaws . One could only imagine how much Yuan Xuan inwardly wanted to eliminate Mu Feng so that he could protect his own father .

“Brother, are you saying that although this was clearly Yuan Tangbai's problem, Yuan Xuan still wanted to set a deathtrap for the Mu Family to conceal it from the beginning?”

Mu Chenyan looked at Mu Chenwu in a stupefied manner while her breathing became uneven . The existence of this reality was far more complicated than her imagination .

Aside from her resentment for him because of their family feud, she had never imagined that she should hate Yuan Xuan on behalf of her home as well .

“Silly girl, you don't even trust your own brother? Haven't you seen what Yuan Xuan has done in the process of destroying the Mu Family?”

Mu Chenwu found it somewhat difficult to remain calm now . He trembled as he took a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket and lit one after removing it before the smoke curled around . His emotions slowly subsided after he had smoked for a while before he continued speaking .

“Yuan Xuan suppressed the Mu Clan and framed our father as a firearms seller to blame part of Yuan Tangbai's crimes on him instead! He stopped the Mu Family from bailing you out when you were locked in prison for two years and he also put our mother under house arrest . Are you really unable to see how ruthless he is?”

“Do you think that he married you to be kind to you? He was using you to make our father let his guard down! Our poor father really believed him . ”

Mu Chenwu's tone was somewhat solemn . Meanwhile, Mu Chenyan weakly leaned against the gravestone while her gaze became utterly empty . She did not dare to continue imagining things according to what her brother had said .

If Yuan Xuan had hated the Mu Family from the very beginning, then did he love or hate her?

Then why did he ask the Mu Family for her hand in marriage when he returned from England?

Was it really as her brother had said that marrying her was only a means for him to strike back against the Mu Family?

If he had only been using her since the very beginning, did that mean that she had played a part in her father's death and the collapse of the Mu Family?

When he saw that Mu Chenyan was silent, Mu Chenwu continued, “Your value as a pawn disappeared after he had gotten back at the Mu Family . He tossed you in prison after that and he only brought you back now because he knew that I'd come looking for you . I'm afraid that he only wanted to use you and capture our whole family in one go . ”

The cold winds in the cemetery rose in all directions and blew up fallen leaves that scratched the ground and made tearing noises .

Mu Chenyan's entire body momentarily shivered . She helplessly lifted her head and glanced at her father's gravestone before he looked at Mu Chenwu and quietly murmured,

“Brother, was Yuan Xuan… Was he really that ruthless? I don't believe that he is as you say he is…”

All sorts of feelings welled up inside Mu Chenyan's heart while she felt as though she was lying to others while consoling herself .

She had loved this person for a decade but he had suddenly strayed from the light and transformed into a demon…

Although the relationship between her and Yuan Xuan did not resemble that of an average married couple ever since she returned, his attitude towards her had always been full of tenderness .

Although she had experienced several trials, Mu Chenyan still felt that Yuan Xuan truly cared about her in his heart .

Loving a person was like nurturing a habit . She was only puzzled today because she had gone too far when her feelings of love and hatred simultaneously occurred .

Amidst the mist and confusion, only the people who were aware of the truth would actually feel the pain .

However, if she had really indirectly harmed her father, how would she live the rest of her life?

A murderous air seeped through Mu Chenwu's icy gaze . He sighed before he quietly said, “Yan'er, I'm afraid that the Mu Family would have collapsed much earlier if Yuan Tangzhong did not want to use us in the past .

“If Yuan Xuan had revealed his true intentions earlier, you would have clearly seen through him before that . You wouldn't have been infatuated with him for so many years then . ”

Mu Chenwu had underestimated the attachments between his sister and Yuan Xuan . As this girl had persevered all along, it would certainly be difficult to make her believe Yuan Xuan's true nature .

She was extremely puzzled . Her emotions and logic were intensely struggling with each other as she said, “Brother, when did Yuan Xuan… When did he actually start taking action against the Mu Family?”

“Ever since you returned to the country!”

Mu Chenwu pondered before he said, “Prior to this, Yuan Xuan was incapable of harming the Mu Family right before his uncle's eyes because he had yet to reach his full potential . When he returned, this was naturally the first thing he would do . ”

“He asked the Mu Family for your hand in marriage and deluded his second uncle and our father as well . He collected some materials to counter the Mu Family and secretly suppressed the Mu Family's close and influential supporters so that our father would be thwarted everywhere in the business world!”

“Yuan Tangzhong was not initially a kind person either . He was close to our father because he wanted to control him while simultaneously using him to do certain things that he could not do on his own . Those are things that you clearly don't know about . This made Yuan Xuan extremely unhappy . ”

“Later when the Mu Family was about to collapse, even Yuan Tangzhong became afraid of Yuan Xuan's means . He did not dare to openly confront Yuan Xuan . Thus, he agreed to eliminate our father when he stumbled upon this chance . Moreover, it was also a win-win situation for the Yuan Family because they could preserve the Yuan Family's reputation and secrets as well!”

Mu Chenwu sneered . His resentment towards Yuan Xuan could not be described with words anymore .

“His only wish was to eradicate the Mu Family from this earth!”

“Brother, if this is true, why did Yuan Xuan save me from prison? Wouldn't it have been better for him to let me live and die on my own?”

Mu Chenyan was not trying to defend him . However, the current situation was more complicated than she had imagined . Since this woman had already experienced too many things, she was no longer as naive as she was previously .

Since she was not actually there to experience the event when it happened years ago, she had to repeatedly consider it although these words were coming out from her own brother's mouth .

This was the last straw in her heart .

It was also her final ray of hope for Yuan Xuan .

“Despite everything I've said, are you still deluded by Yuan Xuan? You might as well think of the past when he was happy with Shu Qinger and even had a child with her . Why did he suddenly marry you?”

Mu Chenwu used his trump card .

Mu Chenyan looked at Mu Chenwu in shock . She did not believe that the child was Yuan Xuan's when other people said that, but now that her own brother had said it as well…
