Free Web NovelChapter 1085: Chapter 1085: Caught in a Storm of Public Opinion (Part 1)
Mu Tiantian almost drank that hangover soup with her eyes closed. After finishing it, she drowsily opened her eyes after a while.
Seeing Nanny Zhang and the beautiful maid, she couldn’t help rubbing her eyes.
"Where’s A Yao?"
Seeing the lady ask about the gentleman as soon as she woke up, Nanny Zhang was very happy.
"Sir went to the company and asked us to take good care of you."
Mu Tiantian: "..."
Even if Nanny Zhang didn’t say it, she knew she got drunk last night.
Frowning, Mu Tiantian carefully recalled drinking with Bai Chenyao last night, but as she thought about it, her mind only remembered the first two glasses of red wine, and the rest...was a blur.
She seemed to have gotten brave from drinking, asking many questions she didn’t dare to ask while sober.
But what frustrated her was that she apparently asked them, and Bai Chenyao seemed to have answered, but what exactly she asked, and what Bai Chenyao answered, she couldn’t recall a single word.
For such a pointless effort, even causing herself to have a splitting headache from the hangover, Mu Tiantian vowed never to do it again.
She lay back on the bed for another half an hour, with the beautiful maid constantly massaging her forehead. When she felt slightly better, Mu Tiantian finally let the beautiful maid leave.
Opening her eyes and shaking her head a bit, she still felt slightly unsteady, so Mu Tiantian decided to rest a while longer in bed.
After this rest, when she got up again, an hour had passed.
By the time Mu Tiantian slowly got out of bed, washed up, and dressed to go downstairs, it was already two in the afternoon.
The only thing Mu Tiantian was thankful for was that she didn’t have any classes today; otherwise, in this condition, she couldn’t attend classes at all.
Seeing her come down, Nanny Zhang smiled and brought the meal to the dining room.
"Sir came back once in between; seeing you were still asleep, he didn’t want you to be called. Sir had lunch at home before returning to the company!"
Mu Tiantian: "..."
Bai Chenyao came back?
Seeing Nanny Zhang leave after speaking, Mu Tiantian picked up her chopsticks and looked at the three dishes and one soup on the table, raising an eyebrow.
She picked a slice of braised potato and put it in her mouth, slowly eating while regretting not getting up earlier.
However, with Bai Chenyao not at home, she actually felt a lot more free.
For instance, while eating, she wouldn’t focus solely on the meal but instead reached for the remote control, turned on the TV in the dining room, enjoying her meal while watching.
Recently, she wasn’t interested in romance films, though she liked animation, but she had seen the one currently playing four or five times already, and didn’t want to revisit it for now, so she continued to switch channels.
When she turned to the news channel, Mu Tiantian’s attention was instantly captured.
"The investigation into Teacher Xu’s death from a certain department at Xing Da University is still ongoing. However, since it involves the Mu Family’s Second Miss, Mu Tiantian, a lot of information can’t be disclosed for now!"
Following that was a news interview, where Mu Tiantian saw that the interviewee was Li Can from their office.
"Could you tell us, Mr. Li, was it really as previously reported, that only Teacher Xu and the Second Miss Mu were in the office that morning?"
"Yes, the school has surveillance footage; if you don’t believe it, you can directly retrieve it for viewing!"
The reporter’s eyes lit up, and continued to question Li Can.
"So, in fact, Teacher Xu’s death is also closely related to the Second Miss Mu!"
Li Can frowned, his voice harsh.
"I don’t know about that; I wasn’t involved. You interviewed me, and I just stated the facts. As for the rest, you need to investigate further. Hopefully, justice will be served for Teacher Xu!"
