"Go to school? What school? She went to seduce men! Come! Bring her back to me!" Duan Si ordered sternly.
Mu Ci frowned.
Mu Chen asked in confusion, "What's going on?"
Mu Ci handed the phone to Mu Chen, and took the opportunity to give a cold look to the bodyguards who were about to leave after hearing Duan Si's order. The two bodyguards were like being nailed down and dared not move.
Duan Si became even angrier: "You still want to protect her? She's already cheated on you, how long do you want to protect her? Even if you're a cripple, she can't find another man!"
"Shut up! Is this what you, as a mother, should say?" Mu Chen roared.
Duan Si accidentally said what was in her heart, and she couldn't help but glared at Mu Ci with embarrassment and dissatisfaction. If she hadn't been defending him, why would she be scolded again?
Mu Ci's cold gaze avoided his mother.
Mu Chen threw the phone to Mu En: "Where did you get these photos?"
Mu En hurriedly said, "A friend sent it to me. I don't know where she took the photo. Brother, why don't you ask my sister-in-law?"
Mu Ci said calmly, "What's there to ask? We met yesterday. He's Zhou Shuo's senior brother."
A servant hurried in, "Master, a Mr. Luo is here to visit."
Mu Ci sighed and rubbed his forehead, "Here it comes."
"What?" Mu Chen didn't understand.
Mu Ci smiled bitterly, "The man in the photo, surnamed Luo, Luo Bing, is Zhou Shuo's senior brother. We met yesterday."
He said to the servant, "Please come in."
"Senior brother, what senior brother? Isn't she the daughter of the Zhou family who was lost when she was young? Didn't she grow up in the countryside? Where does the senior brother come from? Mu Ci, have you done any investigation? Would you dare to marry anyone? What a mess? Since he is a senior brother, he is a man and a woman who are not related by blood. They are so close, there must be an unusual relationship!" Duan Si said firmly.
Mu Ci's face darkened, "If you humiliate her, you are humiliating me!"
Duan Si shut up in disappointment because she received Mu Chen's angry stare.
Mu Chen asked his grandson, "In that case, they are Zhou Shuo's family. We should treat them well."
He looked at Mu En and Duan Si: "Don't make me angry!"
The mother and son stood aside with their heads down in tacit understanding.
Mu Ci smiled bitterly, "Grandpa, I offended him yesterday."
Mu Chen raised his eyebrows: "Oh? You offended him. He should be considered your brother-in-law. How did you offend him?"
Mu Ci didn't know where to start for a moment.
The servant was already leading the tall and graceful Luo Bing away.
Mu Chen couldn't help but squint his eyes. What a handsome man! Standing next to Mu Ci, this man would probably be no less impressive.
Luo Bing looked at Mu Ci with a look that seemed to be burning with fire, but he still maintained his basic composure. When he saw Mu Chen, he restrained his aura a little.
When Mu Ci looked at him today, he no longer had the anger he had yesterday. He was very calm, and with a hint of flattery that he himself didn't even notice, "Grandpa, this is Zhou Shuo's senior brother Luo Bing. Zhou Shuo said that Senior Brother Luo Bing always loved her the most. Senior Brother, this is my grandpa."
It was the first time Mu Chen had seen his grandson treat someone in such a peaceful and even somewhat intimate manner. Coupled with Zhou Shuo's relationship, he couldn't help but feel a liking for this elegant young man in front of him. When he thought about his grandson saying that he had offended someone, his attitude naturally became even more friendly. "Hello, hello, welcome!"
Luo Bing greeted the old man very politely, then sat down upright, looking at Mu Ci without saying a word.
Mu Chen was a little confused. He looked at his grandson and then at Luo Bing. Luo Bing's face was a little cold, but his grandson, who was always cold, was very calm at this moment.
"Well, what does Mr. Luo do for a living? I've never heard Zhou Shuo mention it before, so I'm really confused." Mu Chen wanted to smooth things over.
Luo Bing always stood at the top of the world except in front of his master and fellow apprentices. He was not good at making small talk. After staring at Mu Ci without any result, he got straight to the point and said, "Mr. Mu, I came here today to discuss his divorce with Zhou Shuo."
"Divorce—what?" Mu Chen stood up in surprise.
Mu Ci hurriedly reached out and helped the old man, "Grandpa, don't get excited, sit down first."
"Did you hear what he said? He said he came to discuss your divorce with Zhou Shuo! When did you and Zhou Shuo get divorced? I tell you! If you dare to divorce Zhou Shuo, I will kick you out!" Mu Chen was so angry that his beard was about to stand up.
These words made Luo Bing and Duan Si, mother and son, look different.
Luo Bing looked surprised.
Mu Ci hurriedly said, "Grandpa, I will not divorce Zhou Shuo."
Mu Chen turned around and looked at Luo Bing. "Young man, did you hear that? My grandson will not divorce my granddaughter-in-law! Don't worry about that. Zhou Shuo is the granddaughter-in-law I personally chose. I will naturally protect her well. Don't worry, no one in the Mu family dares to bully her!"
He glared at Duan Si and his mother, thinking that someone must have ulterior motives and instigated his mother's family to come to his house.
Luo Bing frowned slightly, feeling that it was a little different from what he had expected.
"Mr. Mu, Zhou Shuo is young and grew up in the countryside. He's inexperienced with worldly affairs. How could she be so careless about something as important as marriage?"
"It's like a blind marriage, which is extremely unfair to both Zhou Shuo and Young Master Mu. So I'm here today on behalf of our sect to ask the Mu family to cancel the engagement. If the Mu family suffers financial losses because of Zhou Shuo's marriage, don't worry, we will repay them double. As for Young Master Mu's compensation, please name a price. As long as he's willing to sign the divorce agreement, other terms are negotiable."
As Luo Bing spoke, she took out two copies of the divorce agreement from her bag and placed them on the table in front of her.
Mu Chen and Duan Si, mother and son, couldn't help but gasp. No one had ever spoken in such a tone in front of the Mu family.
Is this young man ignorant and fearless?
Mu En couldn't help but blurt out, "My brother gave the Zhou family a 20 million project—"
"Oh?" Luo Bing raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"I can pay you back 40 million, which can be regarded as compensation for the losses of the Mu family. Mr. Mu, you can also ask for compensation." Luo Bing's voice had a hint of happiness.
Mu Ci glared at Mu En.
Duan Sizheng and Mu En looked at each other, their minds searching rapidly. How many families were there who talked about 40 million as if it were the same as 4,000 yuan? Which one had the surname Luo?
"Brother Luo, I will not get divorced. Zhou Shuo is priceless in my heart. Zhou Shuo and I have known each other since childhood. I have been looking for her for seventeen years. Meeting her again is God's gift to me. I will not let go. If you are worried that she will be unhappy, you are worrying too much. I will do everything I can to make her happy." Mu Ci was calm and composed.
