“Did you hear that? It’s not that I don’t care, but our Mu Family is unreasonable,” Mu Chen said calmly to Duan Si.
Duan Si still wanted to speak, but Mu Chen was no longer looking at her.
“Old Jiang, invite a few media outlets over and spread my words.” Old Jiang stood at the door and acknowledged.
“Dad! How can we do that? Don’t wash dirty linen in public! How can we tell others about this? How will Song Nan socialize in the future?” Duan Si was anxious.
Mu Chen looked at her. “If she’s pregnant with Mu Ci’s child, she’ll be the Young Madam of the Mu Family in the future. How can she socialize? She’ll be a glorious person! Have you thought about how Bei Shuo will socialize now that this bucket of sh*t is dumped on her? Hence, I’ve thought about them. They each have their own glory and shame. I’ve taken an impartial approach.”
“But Dad—” Duan Si wanted to say, “How can Bei Shuo be the same as Song Nan?” but she was interrupted by Mu Ci.
“Grandpa, thank you for upholding justice. I also have a few things to say.” Mu Ci met Mu Chen’s gaze calmly.
Mu Chen nodded and gestured for him to speak.
“If it weren’t for Bei Shuo, I would have been dead by now. Hence, my life belongs to Bei Shuo. I’m incompetent and can’t prove my innocence now. I’ve brought shame to Bei Shuo. From today onwards, all my assets will belong to Bei Shuo, including the value-added portion in the future. The Mu Family can treat it as if I’m dead. From now on, I have nothing to do with the Mu Family.” Mu Ci’s tone was cold and unyielding.
“How can that be? How can you only give your assets to Bei Shuo? What about Song Nan?” Duan Si only heard this most important sentence.
Mu Ci sneered and didn’t say anything.
Mu Chen looked at his grandson and listened to his daughter-in-law’s words. He finally sighed. “Mu Ci, must you be so ruthless?”
Mu Ci looked back at Mu Chen. “Grandpa, I’ve already decided. Let me go too. After all, there’s no rebuilding without destruction.”
Mu Chen sighed heavily and closed his eyes.
Duan Si was not in the mood to listen to their inexplicable words. She asked anxiously, “Mu Ci—”
“Just pretend that I’m already dead! Shouldn’t I have died long ago?” Mu Ci interrupted Duan Si coldly.
Duan Si retreated in fear from his cold aura.
“Alright! I agree!” Mu Chen suddenly shouted.
Duan Si trembled in fear.
Mu Chen widened his eyes and looked at Mu Ci. “I’m a person who’s buried to my neck. I didn’t expect to have to experience this. This is probably retribution for my lack of guidance for my descendants! Mu Ci, I only have one request. I want to host your wedding personally!”
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other. One could hear a pin drop in the room.
Mu Ci suddenly smiled. “Alright, Grandpa! You have to take care of yourself. Bei Shuo and I will definitely fulfill your wish.”
He turned his wheelchair and looked at Old Jiang. “Uncle Jiang, sorry to trouble you.”
Old Jiang bowed and did not say anything.
Mu Chen didn’t move even after Mu Ci left with Luo Bing and Bei Shuo. Bei Shuo looked at him worriedly before leaving and was pulled away by Luo Bing.
After the three of them left, Mu Chen fell back on the bed.
“Old Master!” Old Jiang screamed and pounced on the bed.
Only then did Duan Si come back to her senses and say in a panic, “Dad, Dad, Dad, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Mu Chen slowly closed his eyes and waved his hand tiredly. “Stop talking. Let me calm down.”
“But —” Duan Si was anxious. What was going on? She was here to seek justice from Old Master. What about Song Nan and Mu En?
It was not easy for her to get Mu Ci’s attention. How could she let him go just like that?
“Madam, rest first and let Old Master rest too. The doctor said that Old Master’s emotions can’t fluctuate too much, or he will be in danger,” Old Jiang said seriously in a low voice.
Duan Si did not dare to speak anymore.
Although Mu En felt that it was not a big deal if his grandfather was gone now and he could directly inherit the Mu Family, it had become a habit for her to rely on Old Master. Without Old Master, she immediately lost her backbone. Subconsciously, she did not want anything to happen to Old Master.
With Old Master around, Mu Guo would still be wary.. If Old Master was no longer around, would Mu Guo probably never come back? Perhaps her identity as Madam Mu would also change hands, right?
