Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Grandma, why must my wife be restrained when speaking the truth? We all know you’re biased, but there’s no need to be so obvious, right?”
As Mu Zhan spoke, he stood up and walked to Qin Qiong’s side, deliberately criticizing her. “Why are you so clueless, woman? Don’t you know Seventh Brother is Grandmother’s most cherished grandson? Even if you look down on him, there’s no need to say it out loud. It makes Grandmother look bad!”
“Mu Zhan, do you know what day it is today? Do you want to be famous at the family banquet today and tell everyone how you contradicted Grandma!”
Mu Chengxu walked behind Old Madam Mu and gently patted her back to calm and comfort her not to be too angry.
“Defy Grandmother? Let’s make everyone see how biased Grandmother is, shall we? I believe I’m not the only one who thinks Grandmother is unfair. Why is Mu Chengxi treated like the crown prince of the capital, getting all of Grandmother’s love and favoritism? We’ve been feeling discontent for a long time. ”
“Mu Chengxu, what right do you have to speak? Your family grew up under Grandma’s protection, unlike us. If we don’t say a few words, I’m afraid we’ll suffocate to death!”
Mu Zhan had been waiting for this opportunity. They had stayed here and not gone to the banquet hall because they wanted to see if Old Madam Mu had really prepared two big red packets for Mu Chengxi and his little girlfriend from the countryside.
When he saw that the old madam had really come out with two big red packets, the jealousy in his heart could not be controlled anymore. He wanted to make a scene and perhaps fight for some good benefits for himself.
At this moment, Qin Qiong and Liu Lu’s phones rang simultaneously.
“Qin Qiong, who did you offend in the Mu family? Why did the Mu family suspend all their projects? Do you know you’ve ruined the Qin family? If you know who you’ve offended, hurry up and apologize. Perhaps the Qin family can still be saved!”
“Liu Lu, who did you offend in the Mu family? Why did the Mu family suspend all their projects? Do you know you’ve caused the Liu family a lot of trouble? If you know who you offended, hurry up and apologize. You must protect the Liu family.”
The two people who picked up the phone could clearly hear the news coming from the other end of the line. They looked at Mu Chengxi, who was lazily sitting on the sofa and reading messages, in shock and fear.
Seventh Brother, what did you do to the Qin family?”
“Seventh brother, what did you do to the Liu family? Why did something happen to the Liu family now? What right do you have to cancel cooperation between the Mu and the Liu families?”
Upon hearing Liu Lu’s words, Mu Lei quickly stood up and walked to his wife’s side. He looked at Chengxi in shock, as if he could not believe that Chengxi
would really do such a thing.
Mu Chengxi sat lazily on the chair and looked at the two women who had criticized him with a calm expression. There was no excess emotion in his dark and deep eyes. His nonchalant appearance carried a cynical air that he was used to.
“I thought you didn’t believe that I didn’t have the ability? So, does it matter what I did? If you dare to fight me head-on, you must dare to bear my anger.”
Mu Chengxi changed his posture and casually placed his cigarette in the ashtray at the side.
“If you find fault with me, I understand. I don’t have any objections. I didn’t survive just to earn your approval. But looking down on Wen Xin, I’m sorry. She’s the woman I want to protect, and no one is allowed to say a word against her, regardless of who it is.”
“This is just the beginning. What are you guys so nervous about?” Mu Chengxi’s casual smile made the people who were looking at him nervous. His attitude was frightening.
“Mu Zhan, what happened to the Qin family?” At that moment, the Mu family’s second uncle, Mu Jinsong, and his wife rushed in from outside. Behind them was the Mu family’s eldest uncle, Mu Jingang.
“What exactly happened between the Qin and Liu families? We’re not at the Mu Group, and we didn’t make the decision. Why did you suddenly cancel the cooperation?”
“Mom, did you decide this?” Mu Jingang looked at Old Madam Mu as if he was certain that she was the one who had done it.
Mu Jingang’s voice was very loud. As soon as he entered, he made a big fuss, causing Old Madam Mu to frown.
“All of you shut up. What’s the point of being noisy?”
Old Madam Mu clutched her chest and rebuked the few people who had come in aggressively from outside. She glanced at the people who had followed behind them to watch the show. Finally, she looked at Mu Chengxi, who was sitting lazily on the sofa.
Looking at his calm and composed appearance, the old lady had an absurd thought: maybe he had come here today to deliberately cause trouble, probably to pave the way for Wen Xin in the Mu family.
The old lady’s eyes darkened as she looked at Mu Chengxi. She could sense Chengxi’s seriousness. This realization made her even more curious about Wen Xin. What kind of girl could make Mu Chengxi pay so much attention to her?
“Mom, why did you attack the Qin and Liu families? They’re relatives of the Mu family. We’ve been working together for more than ten years. There’s no need to make such a decision, right?”
When Mu Jinsong came over again, he had already received news from Mu Lei.
Although he did not know much about what had happened, he had a rough idea that everything was caused by the old lady favoring Mu Chengxi.
“Mom, they’re both your descendants. Since you’ve already favored one over the other, you shouldn’t let them do whatever they want. Liu Lu has your great-grandson in her belly. It won’t be good if anything happens to her!”
Mu Jingang also walked over from behind the crowd. He knew that the old lady had been talking about her great-grandson recently. If the old lady knew that Liu Lu was pregnant, she would definitely be very happy.
“Is that so? If you’re pregnant, why aren’t you sitting down?” As expected, Mu Jingang had guessed the old madam’s expression. The old madam was all smiles as she arranged for Liu Lu to sit down quickly. It was enough to show how much importance she placed on Liu Lu. It seemed that the day when a mother was honored by her son was about to arrive.
“Since you’re already pregnant, be careful with your words next time. You should be more polite to the child in your stomach. The child’s blessings are all accumulated by the adults.”
How could Old Madam Mu not understand what they were thinking? However, in front of Mu Chengxi, any great-grandson was useless. The only great-grandson she was looking forward to seeing was Mu Chengxi’s child.
Originally, the happy family thought that after today, their status would rise. However, they did not expect things to develop differently from what they had imagined.
Mu Jinyan and his wife slowly walked in from outside. They saw Mu Chengxi with a glance. His actions were arrogant, and his posture was sloppy. He was sitting lazily on the chair with a cigarette in hand. He looked like he was looking down on everyone..
