How could Mu Daxiang bear to give up such a sure-fire way to make money?

"..."

Mu Zeyu and his wife listened from behind and felt that what Mu Daxiang said made a lot of sense.

Yes, nowadays, money talks, so who would turn down money?

Ji Zhixia is brainless, unsophisticated, and unrefined, but unfortunately, she has a lucky father.

Pengfei Group has such good resources now, it's enviable and makes people jealous. If the Mu family doesn't seize the opportunity and give up on Ji Zhixia, there will definitely be a lot of young masters and princes from other companies chasing after Ji Zhixia as soon as Mu Zeyu leaves.

Although Mu Zeyu is the crown prince and sole heir of the Mu family, Mu Daxiang is still alive. As long as Mu Daxiang doesn't abdicate, the Mu family doesn't belong to him.

He craves power and status...

To get these things, the only way is to start with Ji Zhixia.

My mother is right. There's not much genuine love in this world; everyone lives for power and profit. His wife has to be someone like Ji Zhixia who can bring him benefits. So what if he doesn't like her now? Once this period is over, he can just find a couple more young models to keep on the side.

Thinking of this, a determined light flashed in Mu Zeyu's eyes.

………

Tomson, a tenth-rank official, from the Ji family.

The moment the Mu family left, Ji Zhixia buried her face in her hands on the table and cried like a baby: "Mommy, Brother Zeyu doesn't love me anymore, waaaaaah..."

Madam Ji was so doting on him, coaxing him with words like "my precious darling" while scolding Mu Zeyu and Madam Mu.

"Stop crying!" Ji Pengfei sat on the chair next to him, his thick eyebrows furrowed, and interrupted impatiently.

Mrs. Ji looked at her husband with red eyes: "Husband, our Xiaxia hasn't even married into the Mu family yet, and Mu Zeyu already dares to cheat on her! Look at that Wu Yan'e, what kind of attitude is that! It's clearly her son who can't control his lower body, yet he's still so arrogant!"

Mrs. Ji grew angrier and angrier, cursing, "Men are all the same! It doesn't matter if the food at home is good or not, they'll think any other woman is better than the last! Adultery deserves to be struck by lightning!!!"

"..." Ji Pengfei twitched his eye, feeling that these words were spoken to him, and felt inexplicably uneasy.

“Shut up!!!” he interrupted.

Mrs. Ji was stunned by her husband's sudden outburst of excitement, and she stared blankly at Ji Pengfei.

Ji Pengfei coughed, his voice somewhat cold: "The Mu family will be Xiaxia's in-laws in the future. Why are you saying such harsh things? Don't you know walls have ears?"

"Pengfei, you mean..."

"Their engagement remains unchanged, and our son-in-law is still that boy, Zeyu."

"Why!" Madam Ji raised her voice, "Pengfei, our daughter will definitely suffer if she marries into that family!"

"What era are we living in? How much hardship can you let your daughter suffer!" Ji Pengfei glared at her, his tone unfriendly.

"..."

"Even if the Mu family isn't the best, it's still an old company that's been in Beijing for so many years, with a stable foundation. Mu Zeyu is about the same age as our Xiaxia, he's good-looking and capable. If Xiaxia really breaks up with him, can you find someone better than Mu Zeyu?"

"..." Madam Ji remained silent.

"What man doesn't make mistakes? Why keep harping on such a small mistake?" After saying that, Ji Pengfei looked at Ji Zhixia, who was crying like a baby beside him: "Xiaxia, are you going to give up on Zeyu?"

Ji Zhixia cried her eyes out, her eyes swollen like light bulbs.
