Chapter 7 Engagement

Mu Chen opened the door and found an uninvited guest in the room.

"Father." Mu Chen lowered his head and called carefully.

Mu Yuanfeng was quite nice to Mu Chen, but Mu Chen was always too respectful and not close enough to Mu Yuanfeng. When he saw Mu Yuanfeng, he was like a mouse seeing a cat.

Mu Yuanfeng turned his head, looked at Mu Chen, and asked, "I heard that you sent Qi Si away?"

Mu Chen nodded and said, "Yes!"

"Haven't you always liked him very much?" Mu Yuanfeng asked.

Mu Chen raised his head and looked at Mu Yuanfeng cautiously, saying, "Qi Si is too weak. Every time I fight with others, he just watches from the side. Father, if you like Qi Si, I'll call him back."

"No need, you traitor, just get rid of him." Mu Yuanfeng said coldly.

Mu Chen didn't know that the things Qi Si did could be hidden from Mu Chen, but not from Mu Yuanfeng.

Mu Yuanfeng had long been dissatisfied with Qi Si, but Mu Chen was very close to Qi Si and very distant from Mu Yuanfeng. Mu Yuanfeng was worried that the relationship between father and son would get worse, and he was also worried that Qi Si would leave and Qi Wu and Qi Liu would appear, so he had not taken action against Qi Si.

This time, it seems that as soon as Qi Si was sent out, Mu Yuanfeng had his legs broken.

Mu Chen nodded and said, "Father is right."

Mu Yuanfeng turned his head, looked at Mu Chen, and said, "I heard that you have been pursuing someone named Zhuang Yu recently."

Mu Chen smiled awkwardly and said, "There are too many people chasing Zhuang Yu. I have given up."

Mu Yuanfeng nodded and said, "It's better to give up. You are still young, and it's not good to be overly obsessed with love. What's more, you are engaged."

A dark light flashed in Muchen's eyes. In the original text, Muchen's fiancée was a man who was extremely ugly. When Muchen saw her for the first time, he was almost scared to death.

"Father, who is the person I am engaged to?" Mu Chen asked.

"It's a twin, named Ye Shi." Mu Yuanfeng said.

Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. There are three kinds of people in this world: men, women, and Shuang'er. Shuang'er is a kind of man, and Zhuang Yu is also a Shuang'er.

"Father, Ye Shi, who is he? How did my engagement with Ye Shi come about?" Mu Chen asked.

Mu Yuanfeng put his hands behind his back and said, "Ye Shi's grandfather and your grandfather were sworn brothers. You two were engaged when you were young. Over the years, Ye Shi's grandfather passed away, and the Ye family fell apart. It's no longer as good as it used to be."

Mu Chen lowered his head and said, "Is that so?" The original text did not focus much on Ye Shi. Since she was his fiancée, it was necessary to investigate her thoroughly.

"Father, do you know Ye Shi's current condition?" Mu Chen asked.

"Ye Shi's grandfather Ye He has a son, Ye Xun. Ye Xun is a soft-hearted person. He has more than a dozen wives and concubines, and he favors his concubines over his wives. Although Ye Shi is the legitimate son, his biological mother died early, and his situation in the Ye family is very difficult. However, I heard that Ye Shi has good qualifications and is already a two-star warrior." Mu Yuanfeng said.

Mu Chen nodded thoughtfully and said, "Is that so?" Ye Shi is the same age as Mu Chen. Mu Chen has never lacked resources since he was a child, but he is very lazy. Until now, he is only a seven-star martial artist.

The Mu family and the Ye family had made an engagement with the intention of forming a strong alliance. Now, Ye He has passed away, Ye Xun is not strong, a lot of the Ye family's property has been robbed, Ye Shi is not valued, the Ye family's strength has declined, and Ye Shi's status has also greatly declined.

"I heard that Ye Shi will come over soon. You can come and see him then. If you really don't like him, you can turn him down." Mu Yuanfeng said.

Mu Chen nodded and said, "Okay."

Mu Chen lowered his head. Mu Yuanfeng was indeed a father who loved his son. You know, Grandpa Mu Ke was very optimistic about Ye Shi. If this marriage was postponed, Mu Ke would definitely have a grudge against Mu Yuanfeng. Although Mu Ke no longer cared about things, his influence on the family was still huge.
