She Lost Memory Before the Divorce-Chapter 167 - 0: You’re Not Qualified to See Her

Chapter 167 -0167: You’re Not Qualified to See Her

Mu Huaifeng looked into Mu Lan’s clear eyes, reached out his hand, and gently stroked the top of her head.

He forcefully suppressed the sourness in his heart and tried to squeeze out a smile.

“I hope you can do what you want to do, don’t compromise for anyone.

Lanlan, just be yourself, you don’t need to worry too much.

This is also what dad wants to see, you know?”

When her father was mentioned, Mu Lan couldn’t help but shed tears.

She had always been reluctant to accept this reality, always feeling as if she had just slept, and had been thinking about going on a family trip after the college entrance examination.

But reality cruelly reminded her that everything… had indeed happened.

“Okay, don’t cry, you really look ugly when you cry.”

Mu Huaifeng’s words made Mu Lan frown.

“Is that how you be a brother? Who despises their own sister like this?”

Mu Huaifeng looked at Mu Lan as she dried her tears, with a complex gaze.

“You rest well, sleep well, even if the sky falls, your brother will support it for you.”

Mu Lan nodded.

“Mhm.”

Mu Huaifeng left Mu Lan’s bedroom, and the moment he closed the door, a deep coolness filled his eyes.

Just then, Shen Ying went upstairs.

“Huaifeng…”

Mu Huaifeng turned his head, placed his index finger to his lips, signaling Shen Ying not to disturb Mu Lan.

Shen Ying gave him a look and glanced downstairs.

Mu Huaifeng furrowed his brow, his expression very unsightly.

As he went downstairs, upon seeing Huo Tingxiao sitting on the living room sofa, rage burst forth from his eyes, capable of killing a man.

“You still have the face to come here?”

Huo Tingxiao looked at Mu Huaifeng and said calmly,

“I want to talk to Mu Lan.”

Mu Huaifeng scoffed.

“Talk? Why talk? What right do you have to talk?”

Huo Tingxiao enunciated every word solemnly,

“I am her husband.”

Mu Huaifeng’s smile turned even more scornful.

“Husband? You still have the face to call yourself her husband? Huo Tingxiao, I’ve warned you before, if you dare to bully Mu Lan, I won’t let you off!”

Huo Tingxiao stared back at Mu Huaifeng fearlessly, enduring his fury.

“There’s been some misunderstanding between us, I’ve come here to clarify it.”

Obviously, Huo Tingxiao’s explanation was not accepted by Mu Huaifeng at all.

“Lanlan is such a strong person, she would never return to her parents’ home in such a vulnerable state unless it was something she couldn’t handle.

Huo Tingxiao, she has been married to you for seven years, and this is the first time she has come back so dispirited, even crying in front of me.

You say it’s just a misunderstanding?”

Mu Huaifeng’s words stabbed into Huo Tingxiao’s heart like a knife.

But now was not the time for him to feel regret or sadness; he needed to explain things clearly to Mu Lan.

“Huaifeng, calm down a bit.”

Shen Ying looked towards Huo Tingxiao, feeling angry but knowing how much her daughter loved this man, she didn’t want to make the situation too ugly.

“Tingxiao, you have really disappointed me this time.

I thought that the relationship between you two had eased, not as cold and distant as before.

Lanlan has been in good spirits the last two times she came home, her smiles were genuine, which comforted me, and I even advised her to be more considerate of you.

But I never expected that this time, she would be like a soul lost.”

“I know the Huo family has a significant presence in Sea City, and I know you are busy with work. I have always been very understanding toward you.”

“I’ve never had excessive demands for you as a son-in-law, as long as you treat my daughter well and she is happy, I don’t care about anything else.”

“However, this does not mean that we will compromise again and again.”

“I just want to see my daughter happy, and if she is not, I wouldn’t want her even to be the Empress, let alone the wife of a Huo.”

Mu Huaifeng looked at Shen Ying, maintaining his manners even in extreme anger.

He didn’t have such a good temper, if it wasn’t for Mu Lan, he wouldn’t have tolerated it this long.

“Mom, what’s the use of talking to him so much? Lanlan won’t see you, please leave, you are not welcome here.”

“You both can say whatever you want, but today, I must see Mu Lan.”

Huo Tingxiao stood up, clearly meaning what he said.

Mu Huaifeng grabbed Huo Tingxiao’s collar in a flash, sparks flying in the instant their eyes met.

Following that, Huo Tingxiao took a punch from Mu Huaifeng, a strong one, instantly swelling his mouth.

Shen Ying did not expect Mu Huaifeng to strike, and she screamed in shock.

“Huaifeng!”

Mu Huaifeng was about to throw another punch when Shen Ying grabbed his arm.

“You mustn’t hit him!”

“Mom, look at him, if I don’t teach him a lesson today, he really thinks too highly of himself!

He thinks the Mu family is easy to bully. I know how Lanlan has suffered all these years; I deliberately turned a blind eye to respect her wishes.

Now I think, I should have been firmer and made Lanlan leave this cold-hearted person a long time ago.

Huo Tingxiao, let me tell you, from now on, you better not think about bullying my sister.

The favors you did for me, I will repay them. Don’t think you can use them to blackmail me into compromising.”

Yun Xi, seeing the situation, quickly came over. Huo Tingxiao looked up and signaled her not to interfere.

Wiping his swollen lip, Huo Tingxiao looked at Mu Huaifeng proudly.

“I want to see Mu Lan.”

Mu Huaifeng was furiously angry, his forehead veins bulging, his eyes fiery red.

“Can’t you understand what I am saying? I want you out of the Mu house! You have no right to see her!”

Mu Lan, hearing the noise from the downstairs living room, threw back the covers, slipped on her slippers, and came out of her bedroom to the staircase railing, startled by the scene before her.

“Brother.”

They all looked up to the second floor; seeing Mu Lan looking somewhat haggard, Huo Tingxiao felt even more regret.

“Lanlan, why did you come down? Don’t worry, your brother is here.”

Mu Huaifeng’s tone was gentle, a stark contrast to the violent man from moments before.

Mu Lan caught sight of the injury on Huo Tingxiao’s lip, her brow furrowing slightly, a hint of pain stirring in her heart.

Pretending not to notice Huo Tingxiao’s hopeful look, she took Mu Huaifeng’s hand and saw a bruise on his hand as well.

“You’re hurt.”

Mu Huaifeng laughed it off, unconcerned.

“It’s nothing, just a minor wound.”

Shen Ying sighed and hugged Mu Lan, asking softly,

“Lanlan, what do you plan to do?”

Mu Lan pressed her lips together.

“Huo Tingxiao, I am a bit tired today, let’s talk about it tomorrow.”

Huo Tingxiao looked deeply at Mu Lan; clearly, he had a lot to say but had to swallow his words at that moment.

“Alright, we’ll talk properly tomorrow.”

Mu Huaifeng frowned, but felt helpless as he knew Mu Lan’s personality too well; once she made up her mind, no one could change it.

“Housekeeper, see the guest out.”

“No need.”

Huo Tingxiao turned around and left the Mu residence. Watching him go, tears welled up in Mu Lan’s eyes again.
