"But Dad..." Duan Si wanted to say, how could Zhou Shuo and Song Nan be the same, but was interrupted by Mu Ci.
"Grandpa, thank you for being fair. I also have a few words to say, and I can't help but say them." Mu Ci met Mu Chen's gaze calmly.
Mu Chen nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"If it weren't for Zhou Shuo, I would have been a handful of dust by now. So my life already belongs to Zhou Shuo. It's my incompetence that I can't prove my innocence now, and I have brought shame upon Zhou Shuo. From now on, all my property will belong to Zhou Shuo, including the future appreciation. Mu family, just treat me as if I were dead. From now on, I have nothing to do with the Mu family anymore." Mu Ci's tone was cold and firm.
"How can that be? How can you give your property to Zhou Shuo alone? What about Song Nan?" Duan Si only heard the most important sentence in the entire conversation.
Mu Ci sneered and said nothing.
Mu Chen looked at his grandson, listened to his daughter-in-law's words, and finally sighed and asked him, "Mu Ci, do you have to be so extreme?"
Mu Ci looked back at Mu Chen and nodded, "Grandpa, I've made up my mind. You should let go too. After all, there is no construction without destruction."
Mu Chen sighed heavily and closed his eyes tightly.
Duan Si didn't want to listen to the inexplicable words of the grandfather and grandson, and asked anxiously: "Mu Ci——"
"Just treat me as dead! Shouldn't I have died a long time ago?" Mu Ci interrupted Duan Si coldly.
Duan Si was frightened by his cold aura and retreated.
"Okay! I agree!" Mu Chen suddenly shouted.
Duan Si was frightened and shuddered.
Mu Chen stared at Mu Ci with wide eyes. "I'm a man buried up to my neck in the earth, but I never expected to have to go through all this. This is probably the retribution for my poor education! Mu Ci, I have only one request: I want to preside over your wedding myself!"
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, and you could hear a pin drop in the room.
Mu Ci suddenly smiled faintly, "Okay, Grandpa! You must take care of yourself. Zhou Shuo and I will definitely make your wish come true."
He turned his wheelchair and looked at Old Jiang, "Uncle Jiang, thank you for your help."
Old Jiang bowed and said nothing.
Mu Chen didn't move until Mu Ci took Luo Bing and Zhou Shuo away. Before Zhou Shuo left, he looked at him worriedly and was pulled away by Luo Bing.
After the three of them left the door, Mu Chen leaned back and fell on the bed.
"Old man!" Old Jiang screamed and quickly rushed to the bed.
Duan Si finally came to his senses and shouted in panic, "Dad, Dad, Dad, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Mu Chen slowly closed his eyes and waved his hands tiredly, "Stop talking, let me be quiet for a while."
"But..." Duan Si was extremely anxious. What was going on?
She had come to the old man to seek justice, but he just ignored her. What would happen to Song Nan? What would happen to Mu En?
We finally managed to get Mu Ci to the three-court trial, and now we just let him go? How could this be?
"Madam, you should take a rest first, and let the old man rest as well. The doctor said that the old man's emotions cannot fluctuate too much, otherwise it will be dangerous." Lao Jiang lowered his voice and said sternly.
Upon hearing this, Duan Si didn't dare to speak.
Although Mu En felt that it was no big deal even if his grandfather passed away now, and he could directly inherit the Mu family, she had relied on the old man all her life, and it had become a habit. Without the old man, she would immediately lose her backbone. Subconsciously, she did not want anything to happen to the old man.
Now that the old man is here, Mu Guo can still be a little afraid. If the old man is gone, will Mu Guo never come back? Maybe her identity as Mrs. Mu will also change, right?
Duan Si stood aside without daring to breathe, watching Lao Jiang call in doctors and nurses to perform various tests, say a lot of words to Lao Jiang, and then leave.
Before leaving, a doctor glanced at her and said unhappily, "Family members should try to talk to the elderly about happy things to keep him in a good mood. Don't always make things difficult for him."
Duan Si nodded in agreement.
After everyone had left, Duan Si didn't dare to say a word.
Mu Chen could know what his daughter-in-law was thinking even with his eyes closed.
It’s all sin!
He slowly opened his eyes and called out, "Ah Jiang!"
"Yes, old man." Old Jiang responded immediately.
"Are there a lot of reporters outside now?" he asked.
"Yes, when the eldest young master came, some people followed him, and when the lady came, some more people followed her." Lao Jiang answered truthfully.
Mu Chen nodded and gave orders, "Go and ask them to find a few representatives to come in. I will accept their interview and tell them that Mu Enlai will take over the Mu family. I need to take good care of my health."
"Yes! Grandpa." Old Jiang's emotions remained calm.
Duan Si, who was standing by, was extremely surprised. She asked excitedly, "Are you serious? Dad? Have you thought it through? Do you want to give Mu En a chance?"
Watching Lao Jiang walk out, Mu Chen said slowly: "What else? I know you are wholeheartedly planning for Mu En, but Duan Si, Mu Ci is also your biological son! You can't always hurt his heart like this!"
Duan Si completely disagrees with this.
She stammered, "How can he treat me as his biological mother? When have you ever seen him treat me well?"
Mu Chen sighed softly, thinking to himself, Mu Ci, this child has suffered so much.
If Zhou Shuo hadn't been there, I'm afraid it would have been just as he said. Zhou Shuo was a gift from God to Mu Ci, and he was also a gift to the Mu family!
"Although I handed the Mu family over to Mu En, I have to evaluate him. If he makes any mistakes or causes any trouble, I will never let him off easily. If he dares to bring shame to the Mu family, I will kick him out of the house without mercy!" Mu Chen said, coughing.
"No, no, Dad! Mu En will never bring shame to our Mu family. Mu En is the most obedient and hardworking boy. You know he has always been a good boy." Duan Si was delighted and kept making promises for his son.
When the journalists came in, they saw the eldest lady of the Mu family standing by Mr. Mu's bed and talking happily. Mr. Mu was lying on the hospital bed, and he did not look very well.
Everyone bowed respectfully to Mr. Mu and introduced themselves. Mr. Mu nodded kindly in greeting.
"Thank you all for your attention to the affairs of our Mu family. I invited everyone in today to clarify all the issues you are interested in at one time, so as to avoid too many rumors outside that may lead astray and waste public resources. Of course, I also have selfish motives. I hope everyone will give more positive reports to the Mu family." Mu Chen smiled, his tone gentle, and he was as kind as an ordinary old man next door.
