    Chapter 54: Resurrection from Death

    Despite his mental preparation, Yun Tingying's heart was still overwhelmed with grief when he saw the body covered in white cloth.

    Yun Muze was the first to lift the cloth, his eyes widening in shock as he took several steps back.

    Was this disfigured, injured, and lifeless body really Yun Mu?

    Looking at his father in disbelief, Yun Muze asked, "Dad, is this Yun Mu?"

    Yun Shuiyao covered her mouth, sobbing softly, "It's Sister, the size fits, and... she's wearing the clothes that Sister had on today..."

    Indeed, despite the severe burns and tattered clothes, one could still discern that it was the outfit Yun Mu wore during the race.

    Yun Muze slumped to the ground.

    He knew that Yun Mu's death today was his fault - a significant one!

    If he hadn't been so determined to race against her out of stubbornness, Yun Mu wouldn't have met with this tragedy...

    "Dad, it seems someone leaked the news. There are numerous reporters outside now. Should we announce that Sister was murdered?" Yun Shuiyao looked at Yun Tingying with sorrowful eyes.

    Yun Tingying was both grief-stricken and suspicious.

    But the reality was undeniable...

    Eventually, he sighed deeply and said in a resonant voice, "Fourth, go ahead and announce that your sister has been killed."

    At last...

    Yun Shuiyao clenched her fists in anticipation!

    Yun Mu, you're finally going to vanish, completely!

    "Whose death are you going to announce?"

    Suddenly, a cold female voice echoed.

    In that instant, everyone held their breath.

    A glance back.

    In the midst of swirling snowflakes, a maiden with flowing hair and a black veil approached slowly. A beam of sunlight pierced through the snow, casting a divine glow upon her dazzling eyes.

    "Yun Mu?"

    Seeing his daughter standing before him, unscathed, Yun Tingying was stunned. Glancing at the lifeless body on the ground, he found it hard to believe.

    "Disappointed that I didn't die?" Yun Mu's exquisite eyes lifted slightly, a cold smile gracing her lips.

    That haughty demeanor, indifferent to all, was indeed Yun Mu's!

    "Sis?"

    Yun Shuiyao quickly recovered from her shock and astonishment, taking a few steps forward, tears pooling in her eyes. "Sis, you're actually alive! That's wonderful!"

    "To have survived against all odds and return, it truly is great," Yun Mu declared, sitting regally on a nearby rock, crossing her legs elegantly, radiating both dominance and nobility.

    "Speak up, who planted the bomb? You two?"

    Yun Shuiyao felt an inexplicable chill in her heart.

    Today's incident was clearly not her doing, but Yun Mu's cold gaze pierced through her soul.

    Suddenly, an ominous premonition washed over her.

    Yun Muze immediately flew into a rage. "Yun Mu, what are you implying?"

    Yun Mu's gaze remained icy and aloof as she curled her lips. "Having narrowly escaped death, I naturally intend to expose the one who tried to kill me."

    Yun Tingying's eyes darkened with malevolence. "Are you saying you know who's behind this?"

    With the explosion followed by a body resembling Yun Mu, it was evident that there was foul play at work!

    At that moment, Cheng Ming approached and said sternly, "Miss Yun, if you know who's harming you, speak the truth. Whoever it may be, I will handle the matter impartially!"

    He had just received a call from the CEO of the Dynasty Group, both directly and indirectly urging him to uncover the true mastermind behind the scene.

    Given his understanding of the Yun Family, the real culprit was likely among them.

    Cheng Ming cast a subtle glance at the Yun family members.

    Yun Shuiyao's beautiful eyes immediately radiated a guarded chill.

    Yun Mu could by no means reveal the true culprit, Ji Ming, who had planted the bomb. With such a commotion today, the only way to learn the truth would be to find a scapegoat!

    As for the choice of scapegoat...

    It had to be Yun Shuiyao!

    "Since Captain Cheng is taking charge, I can rest assured. I do indeed know who tried to harm me with that bomb, and that person is right here! She is..."

    With an eerie smirk tugging at her lips, she extended her slender forefinger, pointing directly at Yun Shuiyao.

    "Yun Shuiyao!"

    In an instant.

    All present paled in shock, the atmosphere becoming eerie and silent.

    Sure enough, Yun Shuiyao knew that Yun Mu wouldn't let her off so easily!

    She immediately choked back a sob, shaking her head in both surprise and pain. "Sister, how can you defame me like this?"

    Yun Tingying's icy gaze narrowed as he stared at Yun Mu. "Yao'er has always been gentle and innocent. How could she possibly harm you in such a manner?"

    Yun Muze had completely forgotten his sorrow from before, once again finding Yun Mu utterly despicable.

    "You're truly cunning and wicked. Instead of reflecting on your own misdeeds after narrowly escaping death, you dare to slander Yao'er? "

    Yun Muze's face flushed with anger. He harrumphed and rebuked, "I can clearly see that you planned this explosion yourself, just to frame Yao'er! You really have some skill! In my opinion, it would've been better if you were the one who'd been blown up. You...!"

    Before Yun Muze could finish his scolding, he was slapped across the face.

    "Mom, you hit me?"

    Standing at six feet three inches tall, Yun Muze was a tough man, but at that moment, he felt like a wronged child after being struck by his mother.

    "Mumu is your sister, and you dare to wish her dead! You're not my son, get out of here!"

    With that, tears welled up in Lin Wanqing's beautiful eyes. She longed to console Yun Mu with a hug but hesitated to approach. Instead, she softly asked, "Mumu, are you hurt?"

    Yun Mu glanced at Lin Wanqing impatiently. "Can't you see for yourself?"

    She then turned to Cheng Ming. "Captain Cheng, you said you'd stand up for me. So, arrest Yun Shuiyao."

    Cheng Ming looked uncertain. "Miss Yun has accused Miss Yun. Does she have any evidence?"

    Yun Shuiyao scoffed lightly and spoke frankly. "Of course, she doesn't have any evidence because it wasn't me who did it!"

    A seductive smile crept across Yun Mu's lips, and her gaze revealed a cold, venomous determination.

    "It's true that the explosion left no traces, making it hard to find evidence. But... how do you explain this corpse? Yun Shuiyao, why did you go to such lengths to find a body similar to mine, then manipulate Yun Tingying into announcing my death?"

    What else could it be? Naturally, it was to seize the title of the sole heiress of the Yun family, erasing Yun Mu's existence entirely.

    However, Cheng Ming didn't dare to voice this out loud.

    Yun Shuiyao remained fearless, her expression reflecting only the injustice and heartache of being wrongly accused. "I was there the entire time, never leaving for a moment. Even if you suspect that I prepared the body, you have no evidence. Sister, can't you stop targeting me like this?"

    Yun Muze stepped forward, enveloping Yun Shuiyao in his embrace with a tender heart. "Don't be afraid, we all believe in you. No one will believe her nonsense!"

    Yun Mu let out a mocking smile. "You might not have left, but that doesn't mean you couldn't have instructed someone else to do your bidding!"

    At these words, Yun Shuiyao's face turned ashen.
