However, Mu Lele remained silent and did not speak. She only cried in a low voice.
Seeing her reaction, Mu Ru was completely disappointed …
Feeling extremely stifled, he raised the cane in his hand and swung it towards Mu Lele, just like he did with Mu Haidong.
Li Xiao, who just returned to the ward, saw this scene.
At this critical moment, his body shot out like an arrow that had left the bowstring. He embraced Mu Lele while exposing his back.
Mu Ru's crutch landed directly on his body.
Mu Lele was stunned. When she came back to her senses, she hastily supported the swaying Li Xiao.
When she saw that her grandfather had also used too much strength to stagger backwards, she quickly went forward and used her arms to support the old man.
"Grandfather, are you alright?" Mu Lele looked at him worriedly.
Mu Ru pushed her away and said angrily, "I don't need you, a venomous snake and scorpion woman, to be so kind!"
Mu Lele looked at her hands that had missed their target and her eyes were filled with desolation.
Li Xiao saw the two of them constantly clashing, so he went up and comforted them, "Grandfather, this was an accident!"
"Le Le didn't kill anyone. She was your child since you were young. Don't you know her?"
However, at this moment, Mu Ru was extremely enraged. He had someone to speak up for Mu Lele, so the anger in his heart grew even stronger.
"You're wrong, I don't understand her. If I understand her, how could I not know that she has the ability to kill her father?"
Seeing the protective look on Li Xiao's face, Mu Ru gave a sad smile. "Mu Lele has the guts to kill someone. Who knows, there might be an expert commanding him from behind the scenes!"
"Hello, very good!"
"What a sin. If I had known earlier that there would be a day when my family would be wiped out, I would have directly strangled her when Mu Lele was born!"
Mu Lele's face turned pale. Mu Haidong had said the same thing before, but there wasn't a single ripple in her heart back then.
Now that he heard it from his grandfather's mouth, Mu Lele could only feel her heart being cut open bit by bit by someone else, dripping with blood!
"Grandfather …" "This was really an accident, I really never thought of killing dad …"
In the end, she still couldn't help but defend herself, because she really couldn't stand the looks of disappointment and hatred that her family members were giving her.
Mu Ru became agitated once again. The cane in his hand struck the ground as he shouted angrily, "Don't call me grandpa. I'm not your grandpa, and you're not a child of my Mu family!"
"Old mister Mu, please calm down first. Can we talk later?" Li Xiao said as he thought to ease the tense atmosphere.
Mu Ru stared at the two of them in silence for a moment, before using his hawk-like eyes to stare at her.
"Mu Lele, from today onwards, you are not a child of my Mu family. I have never had a granddaughter like you before. Don't let me see you again in the future!"
"When Hai Dong dies, I'll investigate everything. If you kill someone, even if I have to spend all my money, I'll send you to jail!"
His words were cold and merciless. There was no trace of his former affection.
Mu Lele stared dazedly at her grandfather, who wanted her to break off from him. Only then did she realize that she was extremely sad to the point that she couldn't even shed tears from venting her anger.
Mu Ru didn't want to see her again, so he coldly turned around. His back was ramrod straight, but that sadness and loneliness could still be clearly seen.
After her grandfather left, Mu Lele sat up on the bed as if she had lost her soul. After a long while, she covered her face with her hands in an attempt to hide the sadness in her heart.1
