Mu Shicang just smiled indifferently at Mu Shuya's words. At this time, Old Master Mu suddenly said, "Eat."
As soon as Old Master Mu opened his mouth, no one dared to say anything more. They all picked up their chopsticks and started eating. Mu Shixiao breathed a sigh of relief. He could finally have a normal meal. After all, at the table here, you are not allowed to talk while eating.
Sure enough, the meal was eaten peacefully, but some people still suffered from indigestion.
After finishing dinner, everyone moved from the dining room to the living room. Old Master Mu turned and went upstairs, but Mu Shuya stopped him and said, "Dad, this matter has a lot to do with our Mu family. You'd better listen to it."
As she spoke, she glanced at Mu Shicang, and there seemed to be a hint of pride in her eyes.
Old Master Mu glanced at Mu Shicang, and Mu Shicang personally stepped forward to support him: "Grandpa, since Auntie has something so important to say, you should stay and listen."
The old man glanced at him, as if asking: What are you doing?
Mu Shicang smiled at him: Let me show you a show.
The father and son exchanged a few glances at an angle where no one could see, and then Old Master Mu sat down on his armchair.
Mu Shixiao originally didn't want to get involved in these matters and wanted to leave, but Mu Shuya actually asked him to stay: "Shixiao, this matter may affect you to some extent, so why don't you stay and listen as well."
Mu Shixiao was a little surprised. He basically didn't care about the Mu family's affairs, so how could it affect him?
However, he glanced at Mu Shicang, wanting to see what he meant.
Mu Shicang nodded at him, and he turned around and sat down again.
Mu Shuya was so angry that her teeth were itching. A junior actually didn't give her any face and only looked at Mu Shicang's face. If this continued, the Mu family would really become a one-man show for him, Mu Shicang.
Holding back her anger, Mu Shuya took out her cell phone and said, "Dad, this is a video I saw online today. Take a look."
As she spoke, she turned on her phone and pressed the play button on the video. Immediately, a woman's scream was heard from inside. Looking at the screen, there was a girl chasing two good-looking women with a wooden stick in circles. The two women seemed to be screaming quite miserably. Then the screen changed again, and the girl who had just hit the people started shouting that she would call the police, saying that the crew was defrauding her, and yelling that she was clearly asked to play a supporting role, but in the end she was just a cameo.
The characters' voices and images basically match, but anyone who often plays with editing on the Internet can see that there are traces of editing, no matter how subtle it is.
Next, Mu Shuya showed the video to everyone one by one. Mu Shilian didn't say a word this time, but just curled the corners of his mouth slightly, as if waiting to watch the show. Mu Qingyi was a typical example of someone who had forgotten the pain after the wound had healed. He was obviously terrified of Mu Shicang, but he always had to say a few words at this time.
"Who does she think she is? An important character? Tsk! It's really embarrassing."
After watching the video, Mu Shixiao looked at Mu Shuya several times, wanting to say something but stopping himself several times. In the end, he just shook his head and said nothing.
You say that his aunt is so old, why hasn't her IQ improved? Does she think that such a processed video can do anything to the second brother?
I don't know what his uncles, aunts and uncles are thinking. If grandpa really cared about this kind of thing, he would never have let the second brother marry the second sister-in-law. Do they think that if he pushed the second sister-in-law to the forefront and made her lose face a few more times, grandpa would have a problem with the second brother?
Tsk! He didn't care and decided to just listen to some songs.
Mu Shixiao plugged in his headphones and left the battlefield directly, while those who were still on the battlefield or watching were looking at Mu Shicang.
Old Master Mu closed his eyes and rested, glancing at his grandson from time to time. In fact, he was a little curious about what his grandson would do.
Mu Shicang's reaction was very calm, and his gentle smile made it impossible to tell that he had any temper. Even though he was targeted like this, he didn't even look angry.
He picked up the tea brought by the servant and drank it slowly until Mu Shuya couldn't wait any longer and spoke again: "A Cang, don't you have anything to say?"
Only then did he slowly put down his teacup and folded his hands on his raised legs: "Aunt, you should be quite familiar with this crew, right?"
Mu Shuya was stunned for a moment, then a strange smile appeared on her face: "A Cang, you don't think I'm making fun of our Mu family's reputation just to promote this drama, do you?"
Mu Shicang shook his head: "Aunt, you misunderstood. I just wanted to confirm how much money you have invested in this drama. After all, they may not be a success, and I want to try to minimize your losses."
Mu Shuya looked at his face and felt a chill run down her spine. "A Cang, the facts are right in front of us. The video has already been uploaded to the internet. If you do anything to this crew, the whole internet will only accuse our Mu family of bullying others."
"Don't do to others what you don't want done to you. Auntie has done so many things to bully others, why do you ask me to do this? I have been learning from you all along."
As he spoke, he dialed the phone. His movements were elegant and graceful, but within this elegance there was a resoluteness of a hunter about to hunt.
"According to me, this web series is nominally invested in by the Jiang family. Due to poor management, the Jiang family has been unable to maintain their capital chain for the past two years. This time, they want to make a fortune from this IP. Although it is a web series, it can be said to be a big production, judging by the actors and props. However, they are short of funds. Are they relying on my aunt for turnover? It's a pity that they did such a thing. I'm very angry."
After he finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Mu Shuya: "Aunt, things that can be bought with money are never unique. The same goes for people that can be bought with money. As long as they have more money, it doesn't matter who they work for, right?"
His smile became gentle at this moment, but it was like a soft whip with thorns, slowly wrapping around people's neck. Mu Shuya only felt her breath choked and felt a burst of fear.
At this time, Mu Shixiao, who was listening to music, suddenly picked up his mobile phone. It seemed that there was some message on the phone. He opened the message on the phone with headphones on. As a result, his face changed as he read it. The handsome and gentle face turned cold in an instant. At this time, he looked a bit like Mu Shicang.
"What's going on? This is too much." Mu Shixiao took off his headphones and looked at Mu Shicang: "Second brother, is Second Sister-in-law really injured because of this?"
Mu Shicang smiled and said nothing. He just opened the tablet that had been placed beside him without moving, then called up a video, put it on the tea, and let everyone watch it.
The first person to appear in the picture is Yang Shushu, who is strolling on the ancient street. Then a thin young man appears and asks her for help. She refuses at first. Then Jiang Lingyue appears again. The man tempts her with money and she finally agrees. What happens next is a series of events that Yang Shushu experiences.
The video not only has images, but also sounds. Even the occasional words the two people said on the way to the set were recorded in it. You can imagine how close the person following them was, but neither of them noticed.
For the Mu family, apart from the fact that they were defrauded of 4,000 yuan, which was a bit ridiculous, the rest of the things—
Apart from Mu Shixiao and Old Master Mu, everyone else thought: What a shame.
