Mu Ci frowned slightly, secretly feeling lucky that he went to Zhou's house and took Zhou Shuo away without hesitation. Otherwise, Zhou Shuo might not even know how he died.
This is how the world is. Those with pure hearts will always be bullied by shameless people.
However, with him, Zhou Shuo will never be bullied by anyone again.
Mu Ci shook Zhou Shuo's hand and said, "Girl, let's forgive her, so that no one will throw dirty water on you."
Zhou Shuo didn't care whether the water was dirty or not, but she felt that Mu Ci had other intentions, so she nodded and said, "I'll listen to my brother, but I'm very busy and don't have time to pay attention to them."
Mu Ci only smiled at Zhou Shuo. "Okay, go upstairs and see if your cloakroom is decorated to your liking."
Zhou Shuo smiled brightly and nodded happily, "Okay!"
Zhou Shuo turned and left. She did not take the elevator, but ran upstairs briskly, taking two steps at a time.
Everyone downstairs was dumbfounded.
Duan Si gasped, "What the hell is this? What kind of upbringing is this? Ah? What kind of rules are these?"
Mu Ci said calmly, "Mom, do you think it's bad? I'm really envious. I even dream of running and jumping like her."
Duan Si immediately shut up. This was a topic that could not be touched upon.
However, she was very unwilling to be humiliated by her son, so she said firmly: "If she wants to be the young lady of the Mu family, she should behave like a young lady of the Mu family. Being dignified and virtuous is the most basic!"
"I'm afraid none of those dignified and virtuous young ladies would be willing to marry in to bring good luck? They'd then become widows in half a year. Who would be willing to make such a sacrifice?" Mu Ci's tone became even colder.
Duan Si was extremely embarrassed, and without the old man to mediate, she angrily said, "Are you blaming me? Do you really have to talk to me like this? I'm your mother! No matter what, I gave birth to you! What right do you have to blame me?"
Mu Ci lowered his head slightly, lowered his eyes, and said calmly: "Everyone has their own destiny. I don't blame anyone, so no one can find fault with Zhou Shuo. Whether in front of or behind my back, I will never allow my people to be bullied! As long as I live, I will protect her!"
Duan Si opened his mouth, but in the end no words came out.
She thought about it and felt very aggrieved. She couldn't help but raise her hand and punch Mu En beside her: "Isn't it all for your own good?"
As an innocent victim, Mu En quickly soothed her, "Mom, Mom, don't be angry. My brother is just stating his stance. Isn't it natural for him to protect my sister-in-law?"
"Don't make me angry!" Duan Si yelled at his youngest son.
Mu En chuckled: "If you had married Sister Nan to my brother earlier, this wouldn't have happened. So, in the end, it's all your fault!"
A trace of regret flashed across Duan Si's face.
Song Nan raised his hand and hit Mu En. He caught a glimpse of Mu Ci not looking at them, and felt disappointed. He muttered, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Zhou Le's mother and daughter saw this and each had their own plans in mind.
Zhou Le said apologetically, "Aunt Mu, please don't be angry with my sister. She is a simple-minded person. You will understand her over time."
Duan Si snorted lightly and looked at Zhou Le carefully. He felt that this girl was much better than that wild girl. Even if he married her, he should not marry such a girl!
Mu En smiled and said, "Mom, this little sister is so gentle and sensible. Please don't scare her. My brother just advised my sister-in-law to treat her as a proper relative from now on. You can also have someone to talk to you, isn't that good?"
The eyes of Zhou's mother and daughter lit up.
Duan Si said lazily with a cold face: "Whatever!"
The Zhou family's mother and daughter were overjoyed.
Mu En stood up and pushed Mu Ci's wheelchair. "Brother, I've just taken over a merger and acquisition case. Can you give me some advice?"
The moment he turned around, he winked at Song Nan, and Song Nan gave him a half-smile in response.
As Mu Ci turned around, his eyes turned cold, but his tone remained as cold and distant as usual: "You should consult your accountant and lawyer!"
"How can they do that? The advice they give is always ambiguous. Without their involvement, I can still make a quick decision. But after they give their advice, I'm left with a dilemma. Brother, what you teach me is the most practical and applicable."
"I'm not your grandfather, don't bother trying to coax me." Mu Ci said lightly, his tone much softer.
As soon as they left, all the women, including Duan Si, breathed a sigh of relief.
...
Zhou Shuo stared at the huge cloakroom, stunned for a moment, and asked Xiaobai beside him, "Is this all for me?"
Xiaobai smiled with eyes curved, "Yes, these are all bought by the eldest young master for you, young mistress. The ones that are tailor-made for you will take some time to be delivered."
"Anything else?" Zhou Shuo was surprised.
Xiaobai nodded, "Yes! The eldest master said that these are for daily wear, because the young mistress still has to go to school, so they are all ordinary styles."
Xiaobai took two steps forward and lowered his voice, "Madam, these ordinary-style clothes are not easily available outside. I heard from the designer that several of these are award-winning works. They are not for sale, so you don't have to worry about wearing the same clothes as others."
Zhou Shuo stuck out his tongue. "You've made me afraid to try it."
Xiaobai smiled and said, "Our eldest young master is eager to buy all the good things in the world for the young mistress."
Zhou Shuo nodded in agreement. Mu Ci always had a doomsday-like despair. He lived one day as if it were two, and wished he could stay awake for twenty-four hours so that he could squeeze out one more day to fight against death.
"Xiaobai, can you help me find out something?" Zhou Shuo touched the clothes unconsciously, but he was thinking about something else in his mind.
"Okay, Madam, what do you want me to do?" Xiaobai responded immediately.
"Help me find out who the doctor who diagnosed my brother is. I want you to ask him in secret. Don't disturb anyone else, especially those in the main house. Can you do that?"
"I promise to complete the task, but Madam, what are you going to do?" Xiaobai's face was full of anticipation.
"Treat my brother! You must help me!" Zhou Shuo stretched out his hand and shook Xiaobai's arm.
"Okay, Madam, I will complete the task!" Xiaobai vowed.
"It would be best if I could get the previous diagnosis and medical records." Zhou Shuo murmured.
"Let me try." Xiaobai said uncertainly.
Zhou Shuo couldn't help but be surprised, "Do you have a solution?"
Xiaobai nodded. "The doctors who treat the young master are all from the Mu Family Hospital. My sisters are nurses in the hospital."
Zhou Shuo clasped his hands together, extremely excited.
