Chapter 89

Muyan looked at the closed door, touched his nose that had almost been hit by the door, and let out a bitter laugh. He pressed the doorbell again, but no one came to open it this time.

Perhaps the person inside was annoyed by the doorbell, and the door finally opened. A pair of eyes filled with resentment glared at him, saying, "Muyan, you really have some nerve to find me here. What do you want?"

Muyan looked at the girl whose chest was heaving with anger and smiled, saying, "Lei Lei, I came today to apologize to you!"

"Apologize? What do you owe me?" Yao Leilei asked coldly.

Muyan, seeing her hostility towards him, laughed and said, "I just didn't control my emotions back then!"

Thinking about that night, when she almost got completely bullied by the guy in front of her, Yao Leilei felt a surge of委屈 (grievance). Her eyes welled up with tears as she said, "Mr. Mu, don't pretend to be a good person here. Zhang Huangyan told you I was here, right? Now that you know my identity, you immediately came to apologize. Muyan, don't you think you're despicable? Are you going to say next that since you've already bullied me so much, you might as well take responsibility?"

"Lei Lei, that's not what I mean. Do I really seem that despicable to you? Besides, if you hadn't caused trouble that day, would I have done those things?" Muyan tried to explain.

"You're a despicable bastard. I don't want to see you. Get lost!" Yao Leilei shouted and immediately tried to close the door again.

But this time, Muyan was prepared. He put his hand on the door and pushed his way in.

"You, what are you doing? If you break into the home of a police chief, do you think I can't have you thrown back into prison?" Thinking about Muyan's ruthlessness that day, Yao Leilei was truly afraid.

Muyan continued to lower his stance and smiled, saying, "Hehe, I believe you, but I really came to apologize today. I didn't mean to do it that day! Besides, didn't I hold back in the end?"

Seeing that Muyan was genuinely apologizing, Yao Leilei's fear subsided, but without the fear, thinking about that day made her even more aggrieved. She couldn't help but shed tears, saying, "Mr. Mu, is an apology enough? What good is holding back? Do you know how terrifying you were that day? You stripped me naked and touched me all over. How different is that from actually doing it? Am I still pure?"

"I..."

Muyan was about to continue apologizing, but at that moment, the slightly ajar door was pushed open, and a man who looked to be in his fifties, tall and imposing, walked in.

Seeing the man, Yao Leilei's face changed dramatically. "Dad, why are you back so early!"

Yao Juzheng, seeing his daughter's tear-streaked face and Muyan's smiling face, scowled and said, "I knew it. Something must have happened to you, my girl. Fortunately, I finished work early today. Boy, you've got some nerve. You actually stripped my daughter and touched her all over!"

"About this..."

Seeing the police chief's fierce gaze, Muyan felt guilty and wanted to explain.

But Yao Leilei stepped between them and said, "Dad, don't get involved. I'll handle it!"

Muyan was surprised to see that Yao Leilei was not adding to his troubles but was actually speaking up for him.

Yao Juzheng, seeing this, snorted and said, "What do you mean, don't get involved? How dare you bully my daughter? I'll skin this boy alive!"

"Dad, don't be so barbaric. This isn't the military. You're already the police chief of Donghai City!" Yao Leilei knew that her father would really take action, so she immediately called out anxiously.

Seeing his daughter defending the other person, Yao Juzheng, who had been scowling, now showed a hint of a smile. "Daughter, you were just hating this guy, but now you're protecting him. Did you fall for him? If that's the case, I'll let you off easy!"

"Dad, what are you talking about? I have no relationship with him! Let him go!" Yao Leilei, seeing her father's misunderstanding, immediately pushed Muyan, trying to make him leave.

Muyan couldn't leave at this moment and could only look at them with a bitter smile.

Yao Juzheng cleared his throat and said, "Lei Lei, don't be silly. I'm asking you, is what you said just now true? Don't try to fool your dad. You know I have ways to find out!"

"Yes, but..."

Yao Leilei, knowing her father's capabilities, admitted it, but her face turned completely red at the thought of her father knowing her disgrace.

"What do you mean, 'but'? You've been bullied like this, and we can't just let it go. Boy, come here!" Yao Juzheng shouted at Muyan.

Muyan immediately walked up to Yao Juzheng, smiling and obediently called, "Old Commander!"

Hearing "Old Commander" from Muyan, Yao Juzheng nodded, but Yao Leilei's eyes widened. Muyan wasn't a labor reform prisoner, so why was he calling her father "Old Commander"? Could his records be fake?

"Ah! You still remember I'm your old commander. How did you get so bold after leaving Dark Wolf? How dare you bully my daughter? What are you going to do about it?" Yao Juzheng glared at Muyan.

"This, it was actually a misunderstanding. I didn't know Lei Lei was your daughter, otherwise..."

"Oh! Not knowing she's my daughter gives you the right to bully her? Muyan, you used to be a top-notch Wolf Tooth in Dark Wolf. How could you fall so low in just half a year to bully a girl? If you don't give me an explanation today, I'll go to your father and grandfather and let them decide!" Yao Juzheng threatened directly.

"Please, Old Commander, I was wrong, okay!" Muyan immediately begged again.

Actually, going to his father wouldn't be a big deal, but his grandfather was a different story. His grandfather was someone he deeply respected, who had dedicated his life to the country. Although he still didn't recognize his father and refused to call him "dad," he considered himself a descendant of the Lin family. He couldn't let this matter bother his grandfather.

"Ha, since you know you were wrong, then listen to me. My daughter's purity has been almost ruined by you, so I'll let you off easy. But you must treat her well. If I find out you bully her again, I'll really skin you alive! Call me 'Father-in-law' and let me hear it!" Yao Juzheng, after threatening, showed a satisfied look.
