Mu En was currently preoccupied with another crucial matter. He had been sitting in the lobby of the beauty salon for two hours, waiting for Ling.
He told himself that he couldn't be impatient and that he had to wait no matter how long it took. This was Yu Ling trying to temper his temper.
If Yu Ling rejected him outright, it would mean that Yu Ling could not accept him, but Yu Ling's assistant just asked him to wait, saying that his wife was busy.
That is where this matter is debatable.
He waited.
The beautician was doing Yu Ling's facial with skillful techniques.
The assistant stood aside and read the online comments to Yu Ling one by one without any emotion. Yu Ling listened while enjoying the beautician's service. The online comments about her daughter and the criticism of the second son of the Mu family did not cause her any emotional fluctuations.
Finally, Assistant Xiao Wu stood by and said softly, "Madam, Second Young Master Mu has been waiting outside for two hours."
Yu Ling said contemptuously: "If I ask him to wait for another two hours, he will wait too. Do you believe it?"
"I believe it." Assistant Xiao Wu answered immediately without hesitation.
"He was humiliated by Shen Su. That girl will definitely not tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes. But he was smart enough to come to me for help." Yu Ling said sarcastically.
Xiao Wu was a little worried. "Madam, if the young lady makes a scene, the old man and the old lady will definitely support her. If you force her to support the second young master Mu, I'm afraid—"
Xiao Wu couldn't say any more.
Yu Ling said: "That's right, if Shen Su disagrees with this, there's nothing anyone can do."
"Then why do you still let Second Young Master Mu wait?" Xiao Wu was puzzled.
Yu Ling snorted coldly, "It's rare to find someone who can tell the difference between the big and small kings and who is useful. Of course I have to lend her a hand. Shen Su is a fool, spoiled by the Shen family. She never knows the importance of things. She didn't seize a man as good as Mu En, and she's still thinking about that illusory love when she's feeling uncomfortable?"
"Fool! Does she think that marrying for love like Chen Bai does is happiness? When the two old men are gone and she grows older, do you think Xu Yao will still love her? The biggest mistake a woman can make in her life is to believe in love. I really don't understand why I gave birth to such a stupid daughter. There's nothing I can do. I gave birth to her, so I have to bear it myself. At critical moments, I, as her mother, have to plan for her."
Assistant Xiao Wu quickly said, "You only have one daughter, Miss. If you don't think about her, what will happen to her?"
Yu Ling sighed, "But my silly daughter doesn't appreciate it."
Xiao Wu said, "The young lady is still young. In a few years, when she grows up and understands things, she will naturally understand how kind you are."
Yu Ling stopped talking.
When Mu En returned to the hotel, the manager immediately came up to him and whispered, "Second Master, Miss Song Nan is here."
Mu En raised an eyebrow, "What is she doing here?"
The manager shook his head. “I don’t know. I’m waiting for you in your office.”
Mu En pushed the door open and came in. Song Nan had already fallen asleep leaning against the sofa. She sat up when she heard the noise, looking a little dazed. She said unhappily, "Why are you back so late?"
"Sister, why are you here?" Mu En didn't answer. He went to the coffee machine and made two cups of coffee. He added milk and sugar according to Song Nan's habit and handed them to Song Nan.
"I came to see you. What are you going to do about the Chen Su incident?" Song Nan asked straight to the point.
Mu En shrugged, "It's solved. I went to see Shen Su's mother. Her mother said that as long as I can take the position of heir to the Mu family, she will marry Shen Su to me."
Song Nan took a sip of coffee and looked at Mu En with disdain. "You call it solved? Are you really stupid or just pretending? Are you okay?"
Mu En smiled, "Sister! My dear sister! Things have to be done step by step. How can we swallow a fat man in one go? This matter is already difficult. Now at least I can get someone from the Shen family to stand on my side so that I can move forward!"
Song Nan placed the coffee cup on the table and stirred slowly with a spoon. "This doesn't count as being on your side. They want you to be the heir to the Mu family, and you're not one yet!"
Mu En smiled conceitedly, "How difficult is that? That position will be mine sooner or later!"
Song Nan lowered his eyebrows and chuckled, "Today we saw Mu Ci walking. He walked on his own, just like a normal person, without anyone's help. He walked from upstairs to downstairs, through the living room, and into the elevator."
Her calm tone of voice made Mu En feel as if he had been stung by a scorpion. He stood up instantly and asked, "What did you say?"
Song Nan raised her head and smiled at him, "That position may not be yours!"
Mu En sat back on the sofa, unable to utter a word, and no one knew what was going on in his mind.
Song Nan took a sip of coffee gracefully, gently put down the cup, folded his arms, leaned back on the sofa, and looked at Mu En. "There are two paths before you now. One is to find the person who gave you the medicine in the first place, and give Mu Ci another dose of the medicine so that he can continue to use the wheelchair. Grandpa is old and can't wait any longer. He must, and can only, choose you!"
Mu En smiled bitterly. "I still don't know who gave me the medicine. Where can I find him? Even if I have the medicine, can I poison him as easily as before? Even if he is poisoned, doesn't he have that wild girl by his side now?"
"She was able to detoxify such an old poison, which proves she has some skills! This damn girl! It's all my fault for being careless. If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have let her show up. Now look what happened, everything is ruined! How is it possible? How can he walk? It's obvious that he won't live for more than a few days! Zhou Shuo, this damn girl, I really want to strangle her to death!"
Mu En gritted his teeth, wishing he could kill Zhou Shuo immediately to vent his anger.
Song Nan smiled. What she wanted was the same emotion as Mu En.
"There is a second way. Do you want to hear it?" Song Nan asked gently.
Mu En stroked his hair twice and said impatiently, "Hey sister, don't keep me in suspense! My good plan has been messed up all of a sudden. If you have any good ideas, just tell me!"
Song Nan looked at Mu En and said word by word: "Replace your sister-in-law!"
Mu En stopped moving and stared at Song Nan blankly, "Replace Zhou Shuo? Who?"
Song Nan's gentle smile revealed a hint of cruelty under the light, "Me!"
Mu En was speechless.
Song Nan continued, "If I were your sister-in-law, I would have sufficient convenient conditions to make Mu Ci continue to be a useless person, help you take the position, and help you secure the position of heir until you become the next master of the Mu family!"
Mu En was dumbfounded, "Sister, don't you love my brother?"
Song Nan's face was solemn. "Love? Do you think love is more important or money?"
Mu En said without hesitation: "Of course it's money!"
After thinking about it, he added, "For men, it's money."
Song Nan said disdainfully, "It's the same with women. If I marry Luo Bing, I won't know anything, but if I marry into the Mu family, you can at least guarantee me money, right?"
Mu En smiled, "When a brother and sister are of one mind, they can break any obstacle, sister!"
