Zhou Shuo has lived his life fatherless and motherless. Upon reaching adulthood, he was suddenly told that he was the true heiress of the Zhou family.
Back home, Zhou Shuo had expected to rec...
"Well, both of them are very protective of my sister, but my sister never mentioned before that she knew our Director Luo! My sister seems to be hiding a lot of things from us. She is so thoughtful!" Zhou Le said timidly.
Unfortunately, Mu En didn't get her vague way of complaining, "You mean, when the three of them are together, they all protect your sister?"
"Yeah." Zhou Le didn't know what Mu En was thinking, so he could only confirm.
Mu En understood instantly, "Thank you, dear sister. When are you free to come and see me?"
Zhou Le bit his lip and his heart trembled.
"Hmm?" Mu En followed up with another interjection, with a heavy nasal tone and a smile, which was so charming that it was impossible to avoid!
"I, I have to shoot a movie these two days, so I can't decide the time." Zhou Le stuttered, speaking with an apologetic tone in his heart.
"Oh?" Mu En's voice turned cold.
"Let's go to the usual place on Friday. I'll wait for you. See if you're free. If not, tell me two hours in advance so I can arrange someone else—"
"I'm free, I'm free on Friday, brother." Zhou Le agreed hurriedly. She must not let Mu En date other women again. That position is hers and she must not share it with others.
Aren't they just some special hobbies? Everything will be fine once she gets used to it. Mu En once said that she is the most special girl, which shows how special she is in Mu En's heart!
"Okay, it's a deal. I'll wait for you." Mu En smiled again.
After hanging up the phone, Mu En breathed a sigh of relief, seemingly talking to himself, but also as if telling Lin Xu: "Luo Bing and Mu Ci are surprisingly familiar with each other. So this Luo Bing must be Mu Ci's man. He used the name of his senior brother to threaten to take Zhou Ci back. Humph, this tactic of using the past to gain advantage is really clever. It has diverted everyone's attention to Luo Bing. No wonder he seems so indifferent to the 40 million. With Mu Ci's support, what else does he have to worry about?"
Lin Xu was stunned. "Second Young Master, what you mean is that the eldest young master found a scapegoat and pretended to be the eldest young lady's senior brother to support her?"
Mu En snorted coldly.
Lin Xu murmured, "The Zhou family is not worthy of being mentioned in public. The eldest young master is worried that the eldest young mistress won't have the support of her family, so he lets his people come to support her? Brilliant! It's really too clever! Second young master, this eldest young master is really scheming and cunning!"
Mu En curled his lips coldly, not taking it seriously. "No matter how she's packaged, she's just a country girl. I'm relieved. Instead of wasting time on her, it's better to prepare for the birthday banquet for Old Lady Shen."
Lin Xu nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, this matter is the most important. However, Second Young Master, the old lady of the Shen family is not celebrating her birthday, and there is no external banquet. Have you really thought about it and want to go with Miss Shen Su? This is equivalent to announcing to the world that you have decided on Miss Shen."
Lin Xu asked cautiously.
Mu En rolled his eyes at him and asked, "Do you want me to tell you?"
Lin Xu hurriedly smiled and said, "I'm worried. You and Miss Shen have such sharp tempers. If you have a falling out one day, I'm afraid it will end badly."
Mu En sighed, "But tell me, besides Chen Su, who else has more suitable conditions?"
Lin Xu looked reluctant and sighed, "It's just that our Second Young Master is a little wronged."
Mu En sighed, "Thinking about it, my brother could endure the humiliation of marrying a village girl, so my situation is nothing. I can't lose to him, right? After all, the Shen family is a famous and prestigious family, and our family backgrounds are well matched. If the old man marries my brother like this, isn't that equivalent to giving up his inheritance rights? Will Zhou Shuo, that village girl, be the mistress of the family in the future? How is that possible? Even if he wants to, the clan members won't agree!"
Lin Xu was a little worried, "I think the old man still hasn't given up on the young master."
Mu En smiled, "The old man has been playing political games all his life. For him to make such an emotional investment, isn't it just confidence? Just for the sake of the wedding, his heart is made up."
Lin Xu's brows immediately lit up with joy. "So, Second Young Master, you're a sure thing?"
Mu En suppressed his smile again and shook his head. "As long as the matter is not settled, we cannot let our guard down. The Mu family has so many children. If the eldest son of the eldest house is the only choice, then nothing we say will be of any use. Once the tradition of the eldest son of the eldest house is broken, then everyone will have hope. I only hold the title of eldest son."
Lin Xu suddenly realized, "So, that's why the young masters from other families are working so hard?"
Mu En rolled his eyes at him, expressing his contempt for the fact that he had only just seen through this.
Lin Xu quickly apologized with a smile, "Our Second Young Master is indeed wise. I really didn't think so much."
Mu En said no more and changed the subject, "You take care of the club personally. I've already made the greatest sacrifice by marrying a tigress. I can't give her the whole backyard. I have to leave a few things I like to comfort my injured body and mind, right?"
"Yes, Second Young Master, don't worry, I guarantee there will be no mistakes." Lin Xu quickly accepted the task.
The next morning, Mu Ci personally sent Zhou Shuo to the car and told her, "I'll pick you up after class! Don't ask Second Brother out for dinner again. You can't be together every day!"
Zhou Shuo laughed and said, "Don't you know that Second Senior Brother has to shoot a scene all day? How can he have time to have dinner with me?"
Mu Ci said with a straight face, "Anyway, you must take me with you when you are together! Don't leave me behind!"
Zhou Shuo was sitting in the car, leaned out and patted his hand, "I know! Uncle Liu, keep an eye on my brother, he's a little jumpy right now!"
Zhou Shuo laughed and closed the car door with a crisp laugh.
The driver Xiao Du looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose. He couldn't believe that the man who was jealous and acting like a spoiled child so early in the morning was his wise and powerful young master.
Watching the car slowly drive away, Mu Ci said to Liu Ming indifferently, "Uncle Liu, push me to take a walk in the garden."
"Okay." Liu Ming responded and pushed the wheelchair slowly towards the garden.
"The eldest young lady followed Dr. Li's outpatient clinic. It seems that she suspects that there is something wrong with Dr. Li." Liu Ming said softly, paying attention to the surrounding environment and the servants passing by.
"She is so smart, Uncle Liu, you must help me protect her and not let her get implicated and hurt." There was a hint of tension in Mu Ci's voice.
"Don't worry, young master, there are always people around the eldest young lady to protect her." Liu Ming said hurriedly.
Mu Ci sighed softly.
