Chapter 318: Chapter 318: The Scapegoat Tool Man Chapter 318: Chapter 318: The Scapegoat Tool Man “Because I don’t have a car here! Plus, even though it’s early and there usually aren’t any cops, it’s not a guarantee. If we get stopped, you can take the fall for me. Why wouldn’t I do that?” Mu Lingyun fixated her gaze forward, picking up the pace as she spoke.

Zhou Qiluan: …

So, he’s just a tool for taking the blame?

–

Soon, Mu Lingyun was driving back to the villa complex.

She didn’t go back to the Rong Family’s residence but headed for the Ji Family’s instead.

Upon entering the Ji Family home, she made a beeline for Ji Luochen’s study.

On the road, she had already sent a message to the old Ji family patriarch, indicating she wanted to have a serious talk with him.

Therefore, along the way, everyone merely nodded at her without speaking or asking whom she was looking for.

Zhou Qiluan, following behind her and sensing the odd atmosphere, leaned in to whisper, “Is this your place?”

Mu Lingyun shook her head: “No, this is the Ji family’s!”

“The Ji family? As in the top-tier Ji family from the capital?” Zhou Qiluan was somewhat surprised, “What are we doing here?”

“To ask about any grudges between the Ji family and the Jiujiang Mercenary Corps you mentioned,” Mu Lingyun said nonchalantly.

She needed to understand this before she could know why they took Ji Luochen away.

Only by knowing why they had taken Ji Luochen could she figure out her next move.

Zhou Qiluan found it odd: “Luo Chen is taken away, and instead of searching for him, you’re here digging into this gossip. Aren’t you behaving a bit strangely?”

The corners of Mu Lingyun’s mouth curled slightly as she said indifferently, “I never told you, Luo Chen’s surname is Ji, his full name is Ji Luochen.”

Zhou Qiluan: …

Ji Luochen? Why does that name sound so familiar?

It seems like that’s the name of the Ji family’s Crown Prince.

There were rumors that the Ji family’s Crown Prince had cured his heart ailment but had lost his memory.

So the amnesiac Crown Prince of the Ji family had become Luo Chen?

Oh my! So that was the case.

“Now do you think I shouldn’t have come to see the Ji family patriarch?” Mu Lingyun asked quietly.

Zhou Qiluan didn’t speak.

Soon, they arrived at Ji Luochen’s study.

The old Ji family patriarch was already waiting for them there.

“Grandfather,” Mu Lingyun greeted the Ji family patriarch upon seeing him.

The Ji family patriarch was very happy to see Mu Lingyun, but when he noticed Zhou Qiluan, he asked earnestly, “Granddaughter-in-law, who is this? Why did he come with you?”

Zhou Qiluan was surprised when the patriarch addressed him.

But what was more surprising was that the Ji family patriarch actually called Mu Lingyun his granddaughter-in-law?

Was he serious about this?

Could it be that Mu Lingyun was actually married to Ji Luochen?

As he was contemplating, he heard Mu Lingyun introducing him to the Ji family patriarch.

“A friend named Zhou Qiluan from the Great Alliance’s Zhou Family,” Mu Lingyun said calmly and then found a chair to sit down.

On hearing this, the Ji family patriarch said cheerfully, “Ah, so it’s a young man from the Great Alliance’s Zhou Family.”

“Yes, greetings, Grandfather Ji!” Zhou Qiluan spoke.

“Please, take a seat,” the Ji family patriarch gestured to a chair nearby, signaling Zhou Qiluan to sit.

Zhou Qiluan thanked him and sat down.

At this point, the Ji family patriarch turned his attention back to Mu Lingyun, smiling as he asked, “My granddaughter-in-law! How’s Luochen been recently? The divine doctor from Bai Shanya said his memory loss was triggered by his self-defense mechanism, and it’s not appropriate to forcibly bring him back to the Ji family and tell him all these past events. We need the right moment for him to return. But what is this ‘right moment’?”
