Inside the bedroom.

Mu Tiantian is picking out clothes in the dressing room.

Seven Unifications: [According to the information, Luya visits Mu Xian every night in order to gain his complete trust and have him hand over his family fortune to her.]

Mu Tiantian: [You said that if Luya could manage the company, she would be the sole heir of the Mu family. Does that mean Luya doesn't know how yet?]

Qi Tong: [Luya's abilities are inadequate. According to the information, Mu Xian had already left a will, donating 80% of his assets and leaving the remaining 20% ​​to his family. After finding Luya, who was impersonating you, he originally planned to change the will.]

Qi Tong: [However, Mu Xian's assessment results for the courses he arranged for Luya were very poor, so she couldn't even get into the company. That's why Mu Xian has been delaying changing his will, and his attitude towards Luya has changed from initial concern to rather indifferent now.]

Mu Tiantian changed her clothes and came to visit Grandpa Mu.

The middle-aged man standing outside the door looked at her with a kind expression and said, "Young Miss."

Qi Tong: [He is An Lu, Old Master Mu's assistant and butler; everyone calls him Mr. An Lu.]

"Mr. Anlu," Mu Tiantian greeted him with a smile.

Anru was slightly taken aback when he saw her smile; it seemed a little different from usual.

He glanced at her a few more times when he saw that she was empty-handed. She would bring the old man dinner every day, say a few words and leave. He wondered what was wrong with her today.

Anlu didn't say much, and as usual, led her to Old Master Mu's bedside.

An elderly man with white hair and glasses was seen leaning against the bed reading a newspaper.

"grandfather."

Mu Xian, who was flipping through the newspaper, was a little surprised when he heard the voice. He looked up at Mu Tiantian, whose smile seemed more sincere than usual today.

"What did they discuss when they met with Duke Alec?" Mu Xian asked coldly, glancing back at the newspaper.

"He didn't say anything."

"Put down dinner and get some rest," Mu Xian said perfunctorily, seemingly unaware that Mu Tiantian had come empty-handed.

dinner?

Before Mu Tiantian could react, a maid brought in dinner.

The maid was surprised to see Mu Tiantian in the old man's room, but she didn't say anything. She put the plate on the bedside table and left.

Only then did Mu Xian notice that Mu Tiantian was empty-handed. He raised his eyes and said calmly, "From now on, let the servants do the food delivery."

He had said this to her before, but she insisted on bringing him food to please him.

Although he could see through her eyes that she was very unwilling, she was, after all, the eldest son's daughter and his own granddaughter, so he went along with her.

She came empty-handed today; she must be getting impatient.

Mu Xian coughed a few times, his hands began to tremble, and he put down the newspaper, leaning forward as if trying to sit up.

Although the movement was slight, Mu Tiantian still noticed it.

She stepped forward and propped up a pillow for Mu Xian. "I understand, Grandpa."

After hearing Mu Xian's words, Mu Tiantian roughly guessed that Luya must have been bringing him dinner every night. No wonder Anlu and the maid had looked at her strangely earlier.

The information provided by the Seven Commanders was not detailed enough to cover every single thing Luya did.

Seeing her like this, Mu Xian looked her over and felt that she was different today.

He reached for the medicine on the bedside table.

Mu Tiantian took it for him without hesitation.

Mu Xian's hands were shaking, and he couldn't open the medicine bottle for a moment.

"Let me help you," Mu Tiantian said gently.

Mu Xian had never really liked her, and normally he would have kicked her out long ago, but he didn't want to do that today.

He handed her the medicine bottle.

She showed no impatience whatsoever; she wasn't trying to please him on purpose, but genuinely taking care of him.

"Big Sister Mu...you haven't left yet?" Mu Yun came in and saw that Mu Tiantian was still there. She originally wanted to call her by her name, but with Mu Xian around, she didn't dare.

She thought Mu Tiantian had left after delivering dinner, but she didn't expect her to be so attentive.

"Grandpa, how are you feeling?" Mu Yun walked to Mu Xian's bedside with a fawning expression, putting on a show of deep affection between grandfather and granddaughter.

Seeing her fake smile, Mu Xian's expression darkened. "What are you doing here?"

"Of course it depends on you." Mu Yun glanced at Mu Tiantian and said to Mu Xian, "Teacher Fanny said that eldest sister's qualifications are not good enough, so she cannot enter the company's management at the moment."

"So you didn't come to visit Grandpa, you came to complain."

"Sister, you're not right. Of course I came to visit Grandpa because I'm concerned about his health. I just wanted to tell him about your situation, and of course, I also wanted you to know about your own situation."

Mu Yun smiled smugly, "I remember that Teacher Fanny has taught a lot of students, and you seem to be the worst one. Maybe you're not smart enough. After all, my sister never went to school and had a pitiful background. She went to the slave market when she was young."

"Although she was bought by Duke Alec, she was only a maid. She's quite good at serving people, so it's understandable that she can't learn about economics and trade," Mu Yun said sarcastically.

It was clearly saying that she should know her place; with her low IQ, she could only be a slave or a maid, and shouldn't even dream of getting into the company and taking over the Mu family's assets.

Mu Tiantian: [Just how bad are Luya's abilities?]

Qi Tong: [Although Luya, as a mermaid, has studied human knowledge, she doesn't know how to run a company, so she finds it very difficult to learn. However, Mu Yun isn't much better; her assessment scores are only slightly better than Luya's, and she can't match anyone else's.]

"Since my sister can say that, she must be very intelligent, and she attends a prestigious private school. However, your test scores seem to be about the same as mine."

Mu Tiantian curled her lips and mimicked her tone of voice, saying sarcastically, "I don't know how my sister managed to read so many books and still get exam scores that are comparable to mine, someone who has never been to school. Maybe your intelligence is just innate; no matter how much schooling you do, it won't help."

"you..."

Mu Yun wanted to retort, but Mu Tiantian didn't give her a chance to interrupt her, "If I surpass you in all aspects of the assessment in the future, wouldn't you be even worse than me, a slave who has never been to school? If that's the case, then as your older sister, I sincerely advise you to go to the hospital to get your brain checked."

"Mu Tiantian, who are you calling brainless?!" Mu Yun couldn't sit still any longer after hearing what she said.

Normally, when Mu Yun criticizes her, she never argues back, but today she was rendered speechless and her face turned ashen.

Seeing that she couldn't hold back anymore, Mu Tiantian was too lazy to tease her anymore and said calmly, "I didn't say you're brainless, it was just a sincere suggestion."

Her voice was always gentle and soft, a stark contrast to Mu Yun's angry and sharp tone.

No matter how you look at it, Mu Yun seems like a shrew.

Mu Xian, listening from the side, had a headache.

Just as Mu Yun was about to start cursing Mu Tiantian, Mu Xian shouted, "Enough! Get out of here!"

Seeing that her grandfather was only telling her to leave, Mu Yun widened her eyes and asked, "Grandpa, what about her?"

"I have something to say to her. You can leave."

Mu Yun clenched her fists, feeling resentful, but she dared not disobey her grandfather's orders, so she could only leave angrily.

After Mu Yun left, Mu Xian looked at Mu Tiantian and said, "You've been talking a lot more today."

Mu Tiantian smiled and asked, "I wonder what Grandpa wants to say to me?"

“I am not happy about your marriage to Duke Alec, but he saved you. I will not stop you if you are willing. However, he is too ambitious and very cunning. Be careful.”

Mu Xian originally didn't intend to say these things, because he always felt that there was something between her and Alec.

He wondered if it was because she was acting differently than usual today, but he was willing to remind her.

Mu Tiantian thought that this might be the means by which Raine seized the Mu family's property.

"Okay, I promise you."
