Mu Qian's gaze followed Wang Mengwen's and landed on the jade bracelet in the display case.
The jadeite bracelet is of very high quality; judging from its color, it is very likely from the Qing Dynasty.
She had a bracelet from the Qing Dynasty, as far as she could remember.
Their gaze shifted from the bracelet to the old man.
The moment their eyes met, they felt an instant connection, like old friends who had known each other for a long time.
"Since you want this bracelet so much..." Mu Qian's voice was calm yet authoritative, "Then I'll take it."
Wang Mengwen almost burst out laughing when she heard this.
It's as if Mu Qian can have whatever she wants.
You know, she just offered 500,000, but that old geezer still wouldn't sell.
That grumpy old man is probably a fool.
"Xiaoqian, I really don't mean to discourage you," Wang Mengwen said sarcastically. "This bracelet isn't something you can just buy with money."
"Master, name your price." Mu Qian ignored Wang Mengwen.
It wasn't the icy, cold aura he exuded when facing Mu Yuancheng and Wang Mengwen.
The old man's wrinkled face relaxed. "Young lady, we are destined to meet. This bracelet is yours for free."
The bracelet was given to Mu Qian for free.
The old man's actions startled Wang Mengwen, causing her pupils to widen in surprise.
It was as if I heard something unbelievable.
She wanted to shout out her question about what the old man meant.
Under Mu Yuancheng's cold glare, he silently shut his open mouth.
He suppressed all his anger, almost to the point of internal injury.
"Xiaoqian, you're really something," Wang Mengwen said helpfully. "Let's consider this bracelet a gift from the three of us to your mother."
The conversation automatically skipped over the unknown relationship she had just desperately tried to clarify with Mu Yuancheng.
Did she think she could just let it go?
He was secretly pleased; the girl was just a girl, she had been fooled in just a few words.
"Smack!"
Suddenly, Mu Qian raised her hand and landed hard on Wang Mengwen's face.
Wang Mengwen immediately felt a burning pain on her face, as if she had been scalded by boiling water.
"What do you mean?" she asked, bewildered.
"What's the point of beating a jerk?" Mu Qian replied calmly, her face completely indifferent.
You despicable person, you don't deserve even the slightest explanation.
In her previous life, all her time was occupied by Base Nine.
As a result, there was no chance to properly deal with the scumbag father's terrible deeds.
Having been reborn, and now that she's destined to continue her father-daughter relationship with her scumbag father, there are some scores she needs to settle.
Mu Qian's casual words left Wang Mengwen with disbelief.
She was actually stunned by a little girl.
Moreover, this was the quiet, well-behaved, and sensible daughter that Mu Yuancheng had described.
“Yuancheng, Xiaoqian is like this…” Wang Mengwen choked with grievance, “She must have misunderstood us.”
Seeing that Mu Qian wouldn't listen to reason, Mu Yuancheng hardened his attitude, "Xiao Qian, how long do you intend to keep this up?"
"Ever since you returned to the Mu family, you've turned the place upside down."
"What, are you only satisfied when you've caused me to lose my wife and children?"
"Smack!"
Mu Qian slapped Wang Mengwen across the face again.
Yes, both cheeks turned red symmetrically.
Wang Mengwen: "..."
Mu Qian attacked too quickly, and Mu Qian was hit again before she could react.
"Mu Qian, you're going to rebel!" Mu Yuancheng scolded angrily.
"Smack!"
Yes, that's right.
Wang Mengwen got slapped again.
If Mu Yuancheng defends Wang Mengwen, Mu Qian will slap her.
Wang Mengwen: Why is it always me who gets slapped? Let someone else do it! I'm shameless!
Mu Yuancheng: "..."
He hadn't expected it either.
Why has my usually well-behaved and sensible daughter become so violent today?
This violent appearance...
It reminded him of the past, when Mu Qian would always cause chaos at home whenever she returned from Base Nine.
Whether it was Murong or the servants, they all turned pale at the mere mention of Mu Qian's name.
Later, Mu Qian returned home once every six months and once a year, and things improved for the Mu family.
"you!"
Mu Yuancheng was about to say something again.
Wang Mengwen immediately interjected, "It's my fault, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have been here."
Regardless of where you went wrong, admit your mistake first.
Damn it, why does it hurt so much when Mu Qian slaps someone's face?
Your face looks swollen.
"I……"
"Get lost!" Mu Qian said disdainfully. "I don't know why, but I can't help myself when I see you."
As he spoke, he rubbed his fist together.
When Wang Mengwen saw Mu Qian rubbing her fists together, she instinctively covered her burning cheeks.
"Fine, fine, I'll get out."
After cleaning up his shattered, poisoned eyes, he fled in disarray.
Seeing Wang Mengwen being bullied by Mu Qian like that, Mu Yuancheng couldn't bear it.
"Mu Qian, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Mu Qian suddenly kicked him hard in the stomach.
"Hmm!"
Unable to bear the pain in his abdomen, Mu Yuancheng clutched his hands tightly and knelt on the ground.
“I’m your father! How dare you lay a hand on me? Aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he received another hard kick from Mu Qian, just like he had slapped Wang Mengwen earlier.
"Enough with the nonsense," Mu Qian said disdainfully. "You've done such a despicable thing behind my mother's back, and you're still so shameless?"
"Aren't you just asking for a beating?"
A surge of anger welled up in Mu Yuancheng, and he wanted to say something more.
But seeing Mu Qian's fierce expression, he didn't dare to utter a single word.
His mouth was slightly open.
This also earned me a good beating!
