Mu Ci's hair was already soaked with sweat. He gritted his teeth and persevered through the last set of push-ups. He leaned against the railing and panted, "Are you still angry with your mother and sister?"
Zhou Shuo was flipping through something on his phone. He looked up when he heard this, was startled for a moment, and shook his head. "No, I forgot about it a long time ago. Who would have the patience to waste energy on them? What a waste!"
Mu Ci reached out and tucked Zhou Shuo's drooping hair behind his ear, saying gently, "Now that they see you're fine, they want to unilaterally break the contract and reconcile with you. Their sole purpose is to use you to stay attached to the Mu family."
Zhou Shuo said, "Then why does brother still tolerate them? If it were me, I would just kick them out. Who cares what they think? We don't have time to entertain them anyway. If they want to put on a show, let them do it for others to see. We don't like it."
Mu Ci placed his hand on Zhou Shuo's shoulder. "If they were people who could be easily driven away, they wouldn't do such a shameless thing. Zhou Shuo, don't worry about it. I'll take care of it."
Zhou Shuo trusted him very much and nodded calmly, "Okay, I don't want to bother with them anymore. I've already repaid the Zhou family's debt."
She pulled a large towel over the side and draped it over Mu Ci's shoulders. "Don't catch a cold. You've already done enough exercise today. Don't overdo it."
Mu Ci was very obedient and let Zhou Shuo help him put on a bath towel and help him sit in the wheelchair.
Liu Ming hurried over, pushed Mu Ci's wheelchair, and took care of him to take a shower and change clothes.
Zhou Shuo's attention was all on his phone, but Mu Ci didn't care.
"Young Master, the Zhou family's project has been suspended." Liu Ming reported.
Mu Ci nodded, and seeing Liu Ming hesitated to speak, he asked, "What's wrong? Did you encounter any problems?"
Liu Ming nodded, "The Zhou family has hooked up with the second young master."
Mu Ci was stunned for a moment, then slowly broke into a faint smile, "So fast, what a good trick!"
These words sounded like he was talking to himself, but it was unclear whether he was talking about Mu En or the Zhou family.
"Uncle Liu, what do you think, now that the Zhou family's project has been stopped, will Mu En help?" Mu Ci said lightly.
"No, the second young master would not go against the eldest young master so obviously." Liu Ming said affirmatively.
Mu Ci didn't say anything. This younger brother had always been chatting and laughing with his mother and grandfather since he was a child. He never had to do anything by himself. His mother and grandfather would naturally fulfill his wishes for him.
At one point, Mu Ci thought his brother's fate was truly good, but later on, he slowly realized where all that divine intervention and divine help came from. It was all just human effort.
He let out a breath.
Zhou Deyi's forehead was covered in sweat, and he scolded his son anxiously, "Why don't you go and see what's going on with the Mu family? Why did everything suddenly come to a halt? The Mu family can afford it, but we can't? What exactly went wrong?"
Zhou Cong was excitedly sharing with Zhou Le the stories about how Mu En was very favored in the Mu family, and was confused by his father's questions.
"How can I pause it? Can't I? Isn't that what we agreed on?"
Zhou De reached out and hit his son. "Instead of watching over the project, you've been messing around with your sister! Hurry and contact Mu's project manager and take care of it!"
Zhou Cong looked puzzled. "Do we still need to take care of it? The eldest young lady of the Zhou family is our daughter! They wouldn't dare to stop our project even if they had the guts."
Zhou De's face darkened. "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have signed any agreement with that girl Zhou Shuo. Now Zhou Shuo has cut off all ties with us, and there's no one left to plead for mercy!"
Zhou Cong looked at Zhou Le with a wicked smile.
Zhou Le rolled his eyes at him and comforted Zhou De, "Dad, Mom and I went to see my sister. Although she's still angry with us, the old man of the Mu family, the eldest lady of the Mu family, and even my brother-in-law have all acknowledged that we are relatives of the Mu family. What you're talking about is truly something you prayed for."
Zhou De was stunned. Did something happen that he didn't know about?
Zhou Le briefly talked about her and Shen Yu's visit to Mu's house, of course omitting the part about their humiliation.
Zhou De was shocked and doubtful. "Really? No, could it be that Mu Ci was venting his anger on Zhou Shuo's behalf and deliberately stopped our project?"
Zhou Cong sneered, "Dad, you're exaggerating, aren't you? It's only been a few days. How could Zhou Shuo make Mu Ci use tens of millions of dollars in business to vent her anger? Who is she? So charming? It's more like our Zhou Le, right? My sister? Otherwise, why don't you ask the Second Young Master Mu?"
Zhou Le looked shy.
Zhou De was puzzled. "Why ask Second Young Master Mu? How could Second Young Master Mu possibly speak for us?"
Zhou Cong had a look on his face that said, "Don't worry about it," and urged Zhou Le, "Call him and ask him what he's doing and whether he misses you."
Zhou Le thought about it, stood up, and said a little embarrassedly, "Then I'll go back to my room and make a phone call."
Mu En, covered in sweat, answered the phone. A soft and delicate voice came out, "Brother Mu En, what are you doing?"
Mu En glanced at the girl beside him with a blushing face and chuckled, "I'm exercising, honey, do you want to join in?"
Zhou Le's face turned red for some unknown reason. "What kind of exercise are you doing? I can hear that your breathing is a little unstable."
Mu En couldn't help but laugh out loud. "It's a physical exercise, but if you're willing to join us, we can do some exercises that aren't suitable for children! Honey, I miss you so much!"
Zhou Le's heart was about to melt, but he was not yet overwhelmed by this happiness. "Brother Mu En, the project that our Zhou family and the Mu family were collaborating on has been suspended. Do you know why?"
Mu En said, "I don't know. That's my brother's jurisdiction. It has nothing to do with me."
"Brother——" Zhou Le acted coquettishly.
Mu En finally reacted, "Okay, little darling, I'll go ask for you."
"Thank you, Brother Mu En!" Zhou Le said sweetly.
Mu En laughed, "That's how you thank me? That's so insincere! I'm not someone you can fool so easily!"
Zhou Le blushed, "Well, how do you want others to thank you?"
"Of course you have to come to my bed to thank me! Tomorrow night! Don't deny it! I'll give you the news, and you'll give me the person! It's a deal!" Mu En hung up the phone without waiting for Zhou Le to answer.
Zhou Le held the phone and felt hot all over.
Mu En turned over and threw his phone aside. The long legs beside him immediately wrapped around him, "Who is the second young master trying to contact? Even set a time?"
Mu En grabbed the woman's sensitive parts with his hands, rubbed them and said with a smile: "She is a natural little slut who dreams of becoming the second young lady of the Mu family! She is so obedient, and I love it."
The woman pouted, "Shouldn't you give me the minimum respect? You're still on top of me, but you're already thinking about some other bitch!"
Mu En turned over and pressed the woman under him. "It's just a small dish. Let me enjoy it for a few days. I only like women like you who are sensible and have a sense of propriety."
The woman groaned in pain and stopped talking, and she and Mu En were getting better and better.
