Chapter 488 The Orphan Girl Who Will No Longer Be Manipulated (15)

Father?

Mu Zhou's pupils trembled slightly, and his whole body tensed up.

The chairman of Lianzhong Group actually claims that he is his biological father?!

How is this possible?

After a brief period of mental confusion, Mu Zhou quickly came to his senses:

"Chairman, you must be mistaken."

At this moment, her face was pale, and her body language showed obvious resistance, but there was also a faint expectation in her eyes.

Which orphan can remain calm and unmoved when faced with news of their new parents?

Mu Zhou felt the same way; she longed to find her blood relatives, but feared it would all be in vain.

Not only was Mu Zhou flustered, but Jiang Huazhen beside him was also stunned. She couldn't help but speak up:

"Chairman, you said you are Mu Zhou's father? Could there be some misunderstanding?"

With this age difference... it seems like the grandfather would be more suitable.

Of course, she didn't dare say it aloud.

Both of their reactions were within Mu Xingbang's expectations, so he only paused slightly to give Mu Zhou time to react.

"There's no mistake, I personally chose your name back then."

Then they started talking about what happened back then.

His voice was gentle and soothing, and there was even a hint of a smile on his lips.

At this moment, Mu Xingbang seemed not to be the powerful chairman of Lianzhong Group, but just an ordinary man troubled by love.

When he talked about his past with Zhang Mo, the light in his eyes was captivating.

He recounted the first time he met Zhang Mo.

My acquaintance with your mother was an accident.

He was giving a speech on campus when it was raining. The driver rushed through a puddle, splashing up a cloud of mud.

Just then, Zhang Mo's white dress got splashed, and she stormed over to argue with them.

That's how the two met.

Mu Xingbang was so engrossed in the beautiful memories of the past that even the smile on his lips seemed a bit younger.

He spoke of their love, how they overcame societal prejudices, Zhang Mo's pregnancy, and their promise to marry after graduation.

Mu Zhou maintained the same posture from the beginning, to the point that his shoulders were so stiff that he couldn't move.

Her eyes welled up with tears as she listened intently to everything about her biological parents.

But in reality, she was completely unmoved.

Now that I'm thinking back to how wonderful things were, Zhang Mo cheated on me even when she was pregnant.

It's just that Zhang Mo died at the most beautiful age.

He died when he loved her the most.

And because his death was so gruesome, he couldn't forget it.

Perhaps he also resented Zhang Mo for being too decisive and ruthless.

But when he learned that she had given birth to his child and even used the name he had chosen for her, his initial resentment had long since turned into regret.

And endless love.

Mu Xingbang thought to himself, "So that heartless woman still loved me until her death."

Mu Zhou sneered inwardly at this secretive satisfaction that was full of base instincts.

But no matter what she was thinking, she was already in tears.

She looked at Mu Xingbang in disbelief:

"After dropping me off at the orphanage gate, she... she jumped into the river to commit suicide..."

Mu Zhou's eyes, which were almost identical to Zhang Mo's, were filled with sorrow and bitterness.

She took the photograph that Mu Xingbang gave her.

In the photo, Zhang Mo and Mu Xingbang are smiling happily, and Zhang Mo's belly is already quite noticeable.

In a sense, this is the only photo of the family of three together.

Thinking of this, Mu Zhou could no longer hold back his emotions.

She covered her face with her hands, bent over and rested her body on her knees, and cried uncontrollably.

She had thought a thousand times about why her family had abandoned her, but she never imagined that the person who abandoned her would end his own life in the next instant.

This was simply too difficult for Mu Zhou to accept.

Mu Xingbang naturally understood her grief.

He walked to Mu Zhou's side and put his arm around her shoulder:

"Your mother is a person who loves and hates intensely. If she loves, she will give everything; if she doesn't love, she will leave forever. She is always so passionate and intense."

Mu Xingbang's eyes also reddened:

“I’m sorry to you and your daughter. She was pregnant at the time, and we argued over trivial things. She thought I didn’t love her anymore, so she sent me a farewell letter. I thought she had aborted the child, so I didn’t think about looking for you. That’s why we missed each other for more than 20 years.”

Mu Xingbang concealed some of the facts.

He couldn't very well tell Mu Zhou that Zhang Mo had witnessed his infidelity, which led to a series of irreversible consequences.

If she knew, she would definitely hate him.

But now all he wants is to make amends to Mu Zhou and hopes to see his and Zhang Mo's daughter living happily under his care.

For him, this was like another kind of fulfillment.

Hearing his hypocritical confession, Mu Zhou cried even more miserably.

Jiang Huazhen, who was standing to the side, finally came to her senses.

She originally thought that Mu Zhou was Mu Jin's illegitimate daughter, and based on Mu Zhou's age, she was a child he had before marrying Meng Xiyuan.

Jiang Huazhen knew that the chairman had valued his grandchildren over the years, so she wanted to expose Mu Zhou's true identity to the chairman and get him to acknowledge Mu Zhou back into the Mu family.

When Mu Jin's illegitimate son was brought back from abroad, it angered Meng Xiyuan so much that she was hospitalized for a long time. If Mu Zhou's identity were made public, it would definitely cause Meng Xiyuan to have a heart attack.

The fact that Mu Jin has a daughter who is older than his legal daughter will naturally cause a huge uproar at the board meeting, further fueling the board members' dissatisfaction with Mu Jin.

This was the final act of revenge Jiang Huazhen wanted to take before leaving Lianzhong.

But unexpectedly, everything has now taken a completely different turn.

Mu Zhou's father is actually the chairman of the board.

This incident also brought up events from more than 20 years ago.

However, Jiang Huazhen had been fighting in the business world for many years, and she immediately realized something was amiss.

Could a trivial argument really lead to an abortion and jumping into a river?

Furthermore, what role did Meng Xiyuan play in Zhang Mo's death?

Judging from Meng Xiyuan's wary attitude towards Mu Zhou, it's clear she knows everything.

And she felt an instinctive fear of Mu Zhou.

Regardless, a successor who can rival Mu Jin is far more threatening than Mu Jin's illegitimate daughter.

Her wish to cause trouble for Mu Jin and Meng Xiyuan was ultimately fulfilled.

*

The test results came out early the next morning.

Without any surprise, Mu Zhou is Mu Xingbang's daughter.

Such as fake replacement.

At this time, Mu Zhou had not slept well for two days in a row. She looked haggard and pitiful.

Looking at Mu Xingbang's excited expression, she moved her lips, but ultimately couldn't bring herself to call him anything other than "Chairman".

Although Mu Xingbang was disappointed, he understood.

These all take time.

He looked at Mu Zhou, and almost burst into tears:

"Dad will definitely make it up to you and make up for all the grievances you suffered in the past twenty years."

He had already checked all the information about Mu Zhou, so he naturally knew how badly she was doing in the orphanage.

At this moment, he was at the peak of self-blame and guilt.

She wished she could treat Mu Zhou like a princess and give her everything she wanted.

Having just finished work, he took Mu Zhou directly back to the Mu family in Beicheng.
