Chapter 333: Destroying the Stuff (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Grandma, there is no place in this world that is a hundred percent safe, and there are no external parties that are completely trustworthy. No matter where you put them, these things can fall into the hands of someone else.” One of the most important things that Mu Huan had to do was to destroy these things that her grandma was holding on to, so that the old lady would not have any control over her in the future. This was the only way she could freely be with Bao Junyan.

Mu Huan had always planned before she acted, and she would prepare herself both ways — whether to attack or to retreat and defend.

“Grandma, there are no absolutes in this world. Just like how only the dead will not speak, the only way for this to leave no future trouble is for it to completely disappear.”

Matriarch Mu kept silent.

She understood the reasoning. But right now, Mu Huan’s Granny wasn’t her hostage and could not be made use of. Hence, if she lost those things, how was she going to control Mu Huan?

Would the girl continue to obey her?

“Grandma, I know what you’re worried about. But have you ever thought that if I were really determined to leave Bao Junyan and escape your control, I won’t be waiting around for Lin Qingya and Ling Wei to become allies? I would have become allies with Ling Wei. If I gave up my position as Madam Bao to her, don’t you think she will give me enough money and resources to escape your control?”

Matriarch Mu sank when she pondered Mu Huan’s argument.

She knew how intelligent her granddaughter was and how desirable Bao Junyan was. She especially knew Ling Wei’s background. Hence, she understood fully that if Mu Huan did that, she could not only escape her control without an issue, she could even destroy the Mu family!

“Grandma, do you know why I’m not waiting for Ling Wei to return and offer to trade in my position as Madam Bao and, instead, have come to you to ask you to destroy all that stuff?”

“Why?” This puzzled Matriarch Mu too. She knew that this granddaughter of hers wanted to escape from her control. She wished to run away and be free. With this sort of opportunity, she could have patiently endured and waited, then break free with a single strike.

“Because I’ve fallen in love with Bao Junyan and want to be with him forever. I don’t want to give other women a chance to steal him!”

Matriarch Mu widened her eyes in surprise, but the moment she thought of the sort of person Bao Junyan was, her surprise faded. No woman would be able to resist his charm!

“Grandma, I don’t know if you will believe me, but I’m telling you sincerely, if you would destroy those things and put all our worries to rest, I can guarantee that in the future, I will put in my best efforts to help Zixuan!”

“With the way we used to treat you, how could we believe you now?” Matriarch Mu was aware of how badly she used to treat Mu Huan. Given that Mu Huan was such a tit-for-tat person, how could she possibly treat the Mu family kindly and be wholehearted about helping her grandson?

“Grandma, you should know how important one’s family background is. If I wish to secure my position as Madam Bao forever, not only must I have good family backing, my family has to increase in strength! Otherwise, after dealing with this Ling Wei, there will be the next opponent. After many years, there will be younger and prettier ones. But if I have a strong family, they will have qualms. If I were alone and have no backing, for sure, these women will try their luck.

“Hence, even if it were for my own sake, I would do my best to stand the Mu family in good stead! Grandma, think about the most recent times. Haven’t I done everything that you wanted me to do?”

In any case, whatever projects that were of benefit to the Mu family now would eventually put money in Bao Junyan’s pocket. Hence, whatever benefits her grandma had wanted her to gain from Bao Junyan, she had complied.
