Chapter 88 Targeting

"I want to ask you when you will be back. You Le is back, don't you want to go and see him?"

"I can leave the team tomorrow night. I've also told Yule about this. But how did you know Yule was back?" Mu Chuan asked in confusion. He couldn't go out these few days, so he didn't tell his family about Yule's return to Beijing.

"The Zhou family adopted Yule as their daughter, and everyone in Beijing knows about it. What about you? I had to learn about Yule's return from others." Speaking of this, Mr. Mu was also very resentful.

"I'm worried that my dad will go find Yule. I can't go out these few days. What should I do if something happens?"

"Hey," Grandpa Mu sighed for a long time before continuing, "Mu Chuan, there is something that Grandpa may not be able to count on your father, so I can only count on you."

Hearing this, Mu Chuan's handsome eyebrows instantly frowned.

"Grandpa, you say"

"You know the situation of our Mu family. We have been strong on the outside but weak on the inside over the years. Your father is a person who cannot be promoted. You are the only one who is more motivated among the younger generation. The others, whether they are in the military or in politics, are in positions without any merit or fault. Zhou Chengye is a person who protects his shortcomings. He likes Jiang Yule so much... Grandpa is worried..."

When Grandpa Mu said this, Mu Chuan instantly understood why Grandpa called today. In the final analysis, it was because of the Mu family.

Sometimes, from another perspective, his father was cautious in everything, and his grandfather also took every step for the Mu family. Mu Chuan had no right to comment on whether their actions were good or bad, but as Jiang Yule's partner, he didn't want his family to think of her like that, including her family.

"Grandpa, I've met Zhou Jialin and Zhou Jiashu, they are not that kind of people"

"Mu Chuan, Grandpa doesn't want to think maliciously of others, but the current situation in the capital and the situation of the Mu family, our Mu family can't withstand any more turmoil."

Mr. Mu's voice was full of weakness. He had fought hard to gain fame and fortune, but he never expected that it would be so difficult to maintain it.

Mu Chuan couldn't refute Grandpa Mu's attitude. After all, he was his grandfather. He just said calmly, "Grandpa, don't worry. Yu Le is not a grudge-bearing person. He won't deal with the Mu family because of those things. Please help me keep an eye on Dad. Don't go to Uncle Zhou and say nonsense these days. I'll talk about everything when I get back."

"good"

When Mr. Mu heard him relax, he also breathed a sigh of relief. After chatting for a few words, he hung up the phone and turned back to the office. Mu Chuan was secretly melancholy. He didn't know what was going on. He originally thought that everything would be smooth sailing after the mission was completed and he came to Beijing, but why was it getting more and more chaotic?

Now the old man hasn't come yet. Now that he has come to the capital, I don't know how lively it will be.

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Mu of the Mu family found Mu Jingnian again and warned him to behave himself in the next few days.

At this time, Jiang Yule took the initiative to tell Zhou Chengye about her and Mu Chuan, as well as Mu Jingnian's previous misunderstanding of her.

As expected, Zhou Chengye's face darkened terribly after hearing what Jiang Yule said. Thinking of Mu Jingnian's behavior over the years, Zhou Chengye didn't know what to say. It was only because of his father's influence that he wanted to sit in his current position. Otherwise, it would be a dream.

Zhou Chengye was rational. Even though he was extremely angry, he did not say a word. Instead, he asked Jiang Yule for his opinion.

"What do you think? Do you like Mu Chuan?"

Jiang Yule thought about it carefully and nodded, "Yes, that's his father's problem. I don't want to be separated from Mu Chuan because of this."

Zhou Chengye is not Jiang Yule's biological father after all, so it's not right for him to interfere too much in her life.

"Dad won't interfere with your relationship choices, but our children are not to be bullied by others. If you have any problems, feel free to come to Dad."

"Well, thank you, Dad."

Zhou Chengye hesitated for a moment and continued, "Mu Jingnian's mind is not bad, but he is too cautious and conservative. Such a person sitting in a high position will inevitably be stubborn and insist on his own opinions. He is not aware of his own problems, so Yule, Dad suggests that you ignore him and don't think about explaining or anything else. You have your pride, and you are also the treasure of the Jiang family and the Zhou family. You are no worse than Mu Chuan. If you need it, Dad can come forward to help you communicate."

Jiang Yule smiled knowingly, feeling very grateful, "Dad, I understand. I won't consider Mu Chuan's father for the time being."

"Well, that's good. I also heard from Jialin that Grandpa Fang has recognized you as his granddaughter, right? That family is honest and trustworthy. When Grandpa Fang comes back, dad will treat us to a meal together."

"Okay, Grandpa, I'll probably take the train tomorrow."

"Okay, then we'll make an appointment when you come back."

"Okay, Dad," Jiang Yule responded happily. She had a lot more relatives during this period, and her life seemed to be getting better.

Jiang Yule thought that Zhou Chengye's prejudice against Mu Jingnian would be relieved after this explanation.

But in fact, the Mu family encountered a very difficult problem the next day. It was not because Zhou Chengye did something, but on the contrary... the difficult reason was that Zhou Chengye did nothing.

Several young people in the Mu family work in the municipal government. In the past, the two families had little contact. Their only contact with Zhou Chengye was work-related. They would send a document for approval and wait for its signature.

Zhou Chengye is very dedicated. Even if the meeting is very busy, he will work overtime to complete the work he is responsible for, so as not to embarrass the people below.

But today was different. Zhou Chengye went to the office in the morning, picked and signed some important documents, and then rushed to the meeting. After the meeting, he went straight home to be with his wife and daughter. He was busy until dark every day, and no one made mistakes. The next day was the same as usual.
