Chapter 7: Seventh Master's Face Slapped
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Seventh Master, if Miss Anan found out that you hid direct evidence about the Mu family tragedy, how would she feel?" Dr. Gu expressed his concern.
Given Mu Anan's intelligent and unyielding personality, this matter would definitely be blown out of proportion.
There would even be scenes of direct conflict with Zong Zhengyu.
Despite Dr. Gu's words, Zong Zhengyu's expression remained calm. He did not say a word and walked upstairs.
Zong Zhengyu went into the study and turned on his computer.
The monitor showed Mu Anan stepping into the wilderness area of Yuyuan Estate.
Mu Anan had changed into a black outfit and had a weapon strapped to her waist.
Her black military boots stepped on the ground and crushed the branches.
Even though the sounds of wild beasts could be heard, Mu Anan did not stop moving forward.
Her young and beautiful face was fearless and calm.
She tied up her waist-long hair and put on a battle-ready stance!
Zong Zhengyu stared at the live surveillance video and frowned.
When Mu Anan stepped into the wilderness area, she had three choices: to go straight, left, or right.
When Mu Anan was fifteen, Zong Zhengyu had personally trained her in the wilderness area for a month, so she knew very well where the wild beasts and wolves were.
The wolves were straight ahead while the crocodiles were in the swamp to the left.
Whether it was wolves or crocodiles, Yuyuan Estate made sure that these aggressive animals survived with their wildness intact.
In the eyes of these animals, only the weak would be eaten!
Therefore, the safest route should be to the right.
Zong Zhengyu was also certain that Mu Anan would turn right.
Although he was angry, everything would be fine if Mu Anan survived the night in wilderness area, came back safely in the morning, acted cute with him, and promised not to race cars or contact anyone from the Jiang family.
At the thought of this, Zong Zhengyu grabbed a cigarette and lit it with a lighter.
When Seventh Master looked up at the monitor again, his expression changed.
The live video was showing Mu Anan walking straight towards the pack of wolves without hesitation.
He didn't expect her to be so bold and stubborn!
Because she was familiar with the wilderness area within the estate, she walked in the direction where there were most wolves.
Zong Zhengyu was so angry that he smashed the lighter.
This kid didn't want to live anymore!
Zong Zhengyu's face was completely dark as he watched Mu Anan going deeper and deeper into the woods, without any intention of retreating.
"Seventh Master, about Auntie Zhong's daughter..."
As Luo Sen pushed the door open and entered the study, Zong Zhengyu grabbed his coat and rushed out.
When Luo Sen saw this, he chased after Zong Zhengyu, who didn't even turn his head as he warned, "Stand down!"
...
In the wilderness area...
Mu Anan walked forward under the dim moonlight.
Cold wind whistled and wolved howled. The howling of wolves sounded more like the howling of ghosts on such a dark night in the wilderness. There were even sounds of animals running in the woods. It was scary.
However, Mu Anan looked like an emotionless robot as she continued to move forward.
Until she arrived at a dead end.
Half a circle of low slopes blocked her way forward. The sound of animals running became increasingly clear. In the blink of an eye, a pack of wolves appeared on the low slopes.
Dozens of wolves had green eyes as they glared at Mu Anan. They bared their teeth and howled, clearly declaring their sovereignty to Mu Anan. She stepped into their territory and would become their prey!
Mu Anan was very calm. She assumed a battle stance and eyed the wolf pack with vigilance. The corners of her mouth curled into a ready-for-battle smile.
Since Zong Zhengyu brought her to the wilderness area at the age of 15, Mu Anan had fallen in love with the thrill of fighting wild beasts.
She needn't employ any tricks or schemes. There were only four words in the fight against these creatures: the winner takes all!
When Mu Anan met the alpha's gaze, her hand was already on the dagger at her waist!
The second she drew the dagger, the wolf pack howled at the full moon and quickly attacked Mu Anan.
Mu Anan's battle with the wolf pack had been kicked off!
She brandished her dagger and moved agilely between attack and retreat. She was at ease among the ferocious wolves.
The wolves were fast, but she was even faster!
Even though she was fighting an entire wolf pack alone! After all, Mu Anan was trained by Zong Zhengyu himself. If she couldn't even handle a wolf pack, Zong Zhengyu's years of training would have gone to waste.
However, while Mu Anan had the upper hand in the battle, she suddenly slowed when she sensed movement behind her.
This lapse gave the wolves an opportunity to attack her. A wolf opened its ferocious and terrifying mouth to bite Mu Anan's neck. Mu Anan did not dodge at all as if she was waiting to become the wolf's dinner!
In that split second, gunshots rang out. The wolf that was about to bite Mu Anan instantly fell to the ground. Its body shook violently as if it had been petrified.
Mu Anan felt a weight on her waist as she was scooped up and taken away from the dangerous place.
Mu Anan looked up and saw the man's cold and sculpted profile.
His high nose bridge and tightly pursed lips deepened the magnificence of his profile.
Mu Anan felt as if she had been transported back in time to when she was twelve.
She was the ignorant girl who hid in the wardrobe and couldn't suppress her screams of fear. Seeing her mother and grandfather lying in a pool of blood, she could do nothing but scream and wait for death.
But that year, this man who had walked into her heart, descended on the mortal world like a god and saved her.
No matter how many years had passed, Mu Anan remembered that scene vividly as though it was yesterday.
Just like that, he held her with one arm and raised the gun with his other hand, clearing all dangers for her.
"Seventh master..."
Mu Anan couldn't help but call out as she buried her head in Zong Zhengyu's chest.
Zong Zhengyu finished off the last wolf and looked down at the woman who was hanging on his body like a koala. He frowned and said coldly, "Why didn't you dodge?"
Mu Anan looked up. "Seventh Master asked Anan to feed the wolves."
Zong Zhengyu narrowed his eyes and stared at the kid who was acting all pitiful. He didn't buy it at all.
He had warned the kid countless times that she was not allowed to race cars on Xiyun Mountain or to hang out with kids in the racing circle. In the end, she ignored him and did the opposite.
If he didn't teach this kid a lesson, she would behave worse in the future.
As Zong Zhengyu's expression became increasingly stern, Mu Anan's heart trembled. She knew that Seventh Master was really angry this time. It was useless for her to act pitiful.
The little fox remained in a pitiful state.
It was useless to act pitiful, but she had to.
So, Mu Anan cried out when she saw the wound on her arm.
Zong Zhengyu wanted to teach her a lesson, but when he heard Mu Anan's cry, his expression changed instantly. "What happened?"
Mu Anan pinched her thigh and looked like she was about to cry. She showed him the scratches on her fair arm and said, "It hurts so much, Seventh Master."
She looked at Zong Zhengyu with tears in her eyes. Her innocent and almost crying almond eyes were lethal.
Seventh Master, who started off wanting to teach this kid a lesson, instantly forgot everything. He only knew...
