At this time, Gu Miaoyu did not expect that her son would be so abnormal. They had told their son that he had an engagement before, but Mu Ze always said "I will follow my parents' arrangements", so they thought that Mu Ze did not have much resistance to the person he was engaged to.
But now they looked at Mu Ze, who looked completely reluctant.
After Mu Xingfeng and Gu Miaoyu exchanged glances, they immediately knew what to do next. After all, Mu Ze was their biological son.
So Mu Xingfeng looked at the person opposite him, sighed, and said, "Xie Qi, although this marriage was decided by us as parents, after the marriage it is your business. Since my son is now determined to practice, how about..."
At this point, Mu Xingfeng knew that he was in the wrong. If other family members knew that he had cancelled his son-in-law's engagement, they would definitely talk about them behind his back.
After all, everyone in the imperial capital knew about their marriage to the Xie family.
But since his son doesn't like it, Mu Xingfeng feels that he should cancel the engagement even if he has to accept the criticism.
So he immediately said, "Don't worry, although you two are not engaged, if you are willing, how about I adopt you as my adopted son?"
However, upon hearing his words, the young man clenched his fingers tightly behind his back. Finally, he knelt on one knee, looked at the two elders and said, "Uncle Mu, Aunt Gu, our engagement was arranged by my parents. Before they passed away, their greatest wish was for me to fulfill their last wish. I can't let my parents worry about me in the afterlife."
He then looked at Mu Ze, his face filled with sadness. "Mr. Mu, I admit I'm not worthy of you, but I hope you can give me a chance to pursue you. Let's spend some time together and see. If you still don't want to, I won't pester you anymore. This way, I can explain to my deceased parents."
At this moment, Mu Ze and the other two had strange expressions on their faces, but they could no longer bring up the idea of ​​cancelling the engagement, after all, the other party had brought up their dead parents.
Mu Ze also knew that if he cancelled the engagement now, his parents would never be able to hold their heads up in the imperial capital, and it was indeed his fault.
When his father brought up this matter before, he should have refused directly instead of hesitating. It is inappropriate to wait until now to cancel the engagement after seeing the other party.
Mu Ze sighed. He didn't want to embarrass his parents, so he looked at the other party and said, "Okay, but if we can't get along, I hope Master Xie can let go."
"good!"
However, at this moment, the real Xie Qi was turned away by the Mu family's guards.
"Uncle Xie has been to the Mu family for a long time, you'd better leave tactfully!"
"I'm really Xie Qi!"
"Get out of here! How dare you pretend to be Master Xie? Believe it or not, I'll break your legs!"
