Mu Qingsong heaved a sigh of relief over the phone. “Wanwan, I got a lawyer and got a chance to visit Mu Chen.”

When Mu Wan heard this, she sat up in shock!

The pain in her body, which had yet to subside, instantly caused her to frown in pain as if something had crushed her.

Taking a deep breath, she asked Mu Qingsong anxiously, “Really?”

Mu Qingsong nodded. “Yeah, go and see him.”

“Alright, I’ll be right there!”

Although her body was still in pain, Mu Wan insisted on getting up. After washing up, she immediately left the Imperial View Manor.

She and Mu Chen were twins. A month ago, they met with a tragic accident and were framed as murderers. Then, they became the scapegoats.

She had lost her parents and her brother, Mu Chen, was her only family. Thus, she had to find evidence to prove her brother’s innocence!

…

In the visitation room.

It had only been a few days since Mu Wan saw Mu Chen, but she could tell that he looked much more haggard.

“Sister!” Mu Chen was excited to see Mu Wan.

“Mu Chen, don’t worry. I’ll expose Gu Han and clear your name!”

Mu Chen didn’t seem to care about himself. Instead, he looked at her with heartache. “Sister, are you really… married to Gu Tingyuan?”

Mu Wan was slightly stunned. She lowered her eyes and said calmly, “How can we get close to Gu Han without entering the tiger’s den?”

Upon hearing this, Mu Chen was anxious. “But who is Gu Tingyuan? You know him better than anyone else. Why would you put yourself in danger?”

Mu Wan looked up at her only brother, her expression calm. “Who is Gu Han? Only by entering the Gu family can I get close to him and find evidence of his crimes.”

“But you know that Gu Tingyuan…”

“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. Your time is limited. Now, you just need to tell me what exactly happened that day.” Mu Wan interrupted him and changed the topic.

Mu Chen knew that his uncle had fought for this opportunity to visit him. Mu Wan only had five minutes, and he had to tell his sister all the details that would benefit him.

“That day, Gu Han’s assistant asked me to go to North Street…”

Five minutes was not a long time. Mu Wan did not even have the time to say anything to express her concern before she watched Mu Chen being taken away by the prison guards.

Mu Wan leaned against the glass window unwillingly. Her heart ached as she watched her younger brother in his prison uniform slowly leaving her line of sight.

He had just graduated, and his life had not started yet. Even if she had to do everything, she would still make Gu Han apologize and clear Mu Chen’s name!

“Wait!”

Mu Chen, who was still worried about his sister, suddenly stopped in his tracks. He turned and looked at Mu Wan through the glass window. His eyes were filled with reluctance and heartache. “Sister, I’d rather go to jail for a few years than let you marry Gu Tingyuan.”

Mu Wan smiled calmly and replied calmly, “I’m already married.”

Mu Chen stared at his sister and did not say another word. He felt that it was his own incompetence that caused his sister to fall into this ‘unfortunate’ marriage.

Mu Wan watched as her brother was taken away and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Then, she turned and left the prison.

Although she and her brother were twins, their appearances were completely different.

She had married Gu Tingyuan for two reasons. Firstly, it was because she was forced by Old Master Gu. Secondly, it was because she wanted a chance to enter the Imperial View Manor and find evidence from Gu Han to avenge her brother.
