The Twenty-Second Chapter: The Life-Saving Straw

  Lin Tao hesitated for a moment, but still decided to get off the bus and take a look. Over the years, he had not only supported Mu Xingchen at work, but also accompanied him in his madness and chaos many times, always protecting him like an elder brother. He deeply knew that Mu Xingchen was like a noble prince, with a dazzling exterior, but his heart was extremely lonely.

  It is often said that high places are not suitable for the cold, and a wealthy and noble young master like him can enjoy wealth and nobility that ordinary people cannot, but he also has to endure the loneliness that ordinary people cannot taste. Xing Chen lost his parents at a young age, and like many children without parents, he was also so helpless and unfortunate.

  Although his grandparents loved him doubly, the love and care that parents gave was forever missing from Star. Over the years, he had seen enough of Star's several cousins' open and secret attacks on Star, these young masters only saw how much their grandparents loved him, but completely forgot that Star was a child without parents, and he endured how much loneliness they had never experienced.

  Such a wealthy family, looking so high and majestic on the outside, but inside it's actually so dirty and dark. Far from being as warm as an ordinary commoner's home. He deeply felt sorry for Xingchen, and thus became even more concerned about him. And Xingchen, of course, also regarded him as a close brother.

  Compared to Xīng Chén, he not only has both parents but also an older sister and a younger sister. The five members of the family live together in harmony, enjoying the joy of being together. His father is the old gardener of the Mù family and has always worked for them. Mr. Mù, who is Xīng Chén's grandfather, is very kind to their family because he and Xīng Chén are similar in age. So, Xīng Chén's grandfather especially entrusts him to take care of Xīng Chén and give him the warmth of a family member to make up for the harm he has suffered.

  For so many years, Lin Tao has remembered this sentence and made his greatest effort to make Mu Xingchen happy. So for the things he likes, he always can't help but think of ways to bring that thing intact in front of him, he can even fully mobilize his own preferences, follow his joy, follow his sorrow.

  However, this time he disrupted the underlying rules. He was a bit impulsive, and today they had come to this entertainment city at An Shuo Ping's invitation to have some fun. For the past few days, Mu Xingchen's mood had been bad, and he knew why. He also knew that after running into Zhuo Mengjun that day, his crazy behavior was because of it.

  That day, when Mu Xingchen handed over the follow-up work of the contract to him, he had a premonition that Mu Xingchen was going to do something. He naturally accepted it as usual, but this time was different from the past, his heart felt like being stung by a bee, and for the first time, he had a feeling of unwillingness.

  But he silently accepted it. Perhaps this has become his habit for many years. However, deep down in his heart, there is something that wants to move. It was this thing that made him go to Zhongzhong to find Zhuo Mengjun, but he didn't make a big fuss like Mu Xingchen did. He also received the news of the misfortune at Mengjun's home. He was thinking about how he could help her?

  How ridiculous! Mu Xingchen had at least met her in person, but he had never been looked at by her with a straight face before! This is just one of the miracles that love can create. Therefore, it was precisely because of this relationship that his actions today were a bit impulsive. He almost didn't think twice, walked to the back compartment, and suddenly opened the car door

  Mu Xingchen was pressing down on Zhuo Mengjun like a fierce tiger descending from a mountain.

  "Help! Help!" It was as if a bright morning star had suddenly appeared in the darkness, or as if he had grasped a life-saving raft in a vast and turbulent sea. Meng Jun shouted with all his might.

  "Sixth Young Master! What are you doing?!"

  Lin Tao didn't think twice when he saw this scene, his first thought was to quickly rescue Meng Jun from his hands. Next, he took action, Lin Tao had also practiced martial arts, but his skills were slightly inferior to Mu Xingchen's. He struck out with a direct hit, the fist wind howling straight at Mu Xingchen's face.

  This punch was going to hit Mu Xingchen, and he would definitely be paralyzed. At the same time, Mu Xingchen instinctively felt the danger approaching, and with a slight tilt of his head, he narrowly avoided the punch by a mere millimeter.

  "Are you crazy?" Mu Xingchen's eyes widened in incredulity as he clearly saw the person who had arrived.

  Good heavens! Lin Tao actually laid hands on him, in their more than twenty years of being as close as lips and teeth, no matter how excessive he was, Mu Xingchen had never laid hands on him.

  "Sixth Master, what are you doing? Why must you bully such an innocent girl?" Lin Tao's chest heaved with anger.

  "Which eye of yours saw me bully her?" Mu Xingchen was truly baffled. Dream Jun, on the other hand, quickly spun around from shock and anger: Ah, what a great opportunity, if not now then when? He kicked away Mu Xingchen who was still blocking his way and immediately stepped out of the car with one foot.
