Han Yunxi might have laughed, but the expressionless Long Feiye had a different change. He glanced slightly outside the curtain as his eyes flickered with ruthlessness. Han Yunxi had no idea that Long Feiye was watching the entire scene. She simply shook her head at Mu Linger. Even after finding out that Mute Granny had gone missing after falling off the cliff, Han Yunxi had never given up searching for her. She and Long Feiye had been wracking their brains to track her down and only given up recently.

When it came to Mute Granny’s death, she still felt remorseful and uneasy. But that didn’t mean Mu Linger could accuse her without any grounds!

“Hypocrite! I, Mu Linger, look down on people who bully innocent old women!” Mu Linger raged. She had once said that she’d definitely scorn Han Yunxi if she hurt a hair on Mute Granny’s head.

Han Yunxi lost it as well. She jumped off the carriage and said, “Mu Linger, you better give me some evidence and a clear explanation. Otherwise, don’t even think of leaving today!”

“Evidence?” Mu Linger gave a frosty laugh. “I must have had a hole in my brain not to suspect you from the start. You yourselves are the evidence, so why should I give you any more?”

“Stop flapping your mouth with useless words!” Han Yunxi shot back.

“What, you want me to spell it out?” Mu Linger sneered back. “Han Yunxi, only my Mu Clan, you and the Duke of Qin, and Qi gege knows of Mute Granny’s existence.”

“So then?” Han Yunxi asked.

“His Highness Duke of Qin had the skills to bring you and Mute Granny away from the Mu Clan and their entire team of guards. Do you think my Mu Clan would’ve had the skills to back Mute Granny into a corner until she jumped off the cliff?” Mu Linger demanded.

“It wasn’t His Highness Duke of Qin who escorted Mute Granny out, but his subordinates,” Han Yunxi said, before adding, “And I never blamed your Mu Clan.”

She might have suspected them, but Mu Linger’s defense for them had stopped that line of thinking. She hadn’t bothered the Mu Clan at all after that. Mu Yingdong left Mute Granny there for a reason, so he had full reason to chase after the old woman, but he’d never force her off a cliff. Moreover, when Mu Yingdong came to ask for Mu Linger, she had questioned him then too and grown convinced that he wasn’t the culprit.

“So, you’re sure my Mu Clan didn’t do it?”

“I’m sure. What exactly do you want to say?” Han Yunxi wasn’t that patient.

Mu Linger remained calm and asked, “Then let me ask you next, would Qi gege kidnap Mute Granny?”

Han Yunxi didn’t even have to think. “It’s impossible that it’d be him.”

Gu Qishao might have taken her to see Mute Granny, but she wouldn’t even know the old woman existed before he told her! Gu Qishao was searching for Mute Granny right now as well!

“Very good. Then let me ask you again. If we’re the only ones who know that Mute Granny exists, and Qi gege and my Mu Clan both aren’t suspects, wouldn’t that leave you and Long Feiye as the most suspicious party?” Mu Linger asked.

“That’s gangster logic!” Han Yunxi exclaimed.
