It was sweet here, but the atmosphere in the living room on the other side was a bit tense.
Seeing that the guests had left, Mu Huaijin returned to the sofa and said to his mother:
"Mom, I don't need a blind date. Please stop doing this for me."
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the living room froze.
The servants who were cleaning the surroundings didn't dare to make a sound. Seeing this, they all retreated quietly.
Sitting on the sofa, Ling Yun closed her eyes and put down the cup in her hand that was about to be crushed by her.
"Let's talk in the study."
After saying that, she turned around and went to the study without even looking at him.
Mu Huaijin followed in silence.
Mu Wenqian was handling official business in the study. When he saw the two people coming in one after another, his face looked unhappy and his eyes flashed.
He closed the documents on the desk, stood up, pulled his wife over, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Ling Yun didn't know what to say. She opened her mouth and her eyes gradually turned red.
Mu Wenqian suddenly became anxious and looked at Mu Huaijin. Before he could say anything, Mu Huaijin spoke first.
"I don't want to go on a blind date, so you don't have to arrange it for me anymore."
It turned out to be because of this incident. No wonder his wife looked so unhappy. Mu Wenqian sighed, reached out to hug Ling Yun, and wiped the corners of her eyes.
He turned to look at Mu Huaijin and hardened his heart.
"We're setting you up on a blind date for your own good. You have to accept it even if you don't want to."
Hearing his father's words, Mu Huaijin seemed to hear the sound of something collapsing with a loud bang.
I took a deep breath, and my heart ached.
The pain also made him calm down. He clenched his fists lightly and looked at the two of them expressionlessly.
"I've always thought you were the most sensible parents since I was a child, but now I suddenly feel like I was wrong."
"I know that you can't accept the fact that I like men, and I understand why you can't accept it. So I'll give you some time to digest this matter. Even if you don't agree with it in this life, I can understand."
"But what are you doing now?"
Looking at the two people's somewhat moved expressions, Mu Huaijin smiled bitterly.
"Butler Zhong's legs became paralyzed because he saved me. He can never stand up again!"
Mu Wenqian and his wife widened their eyes in surprise.
How could that be?
They have no idea about it.
Mu Huaijin ignored them and continued, "Because of me, he can no longer stand up, and you, as my parents...are trying every possible way to arrange a blind date for me."
"It's really unfortunate that he likes me."
Mu Huaijin laughed at himself.
Mu Wenqian and Ling Yun stood still.
I stared at him blankly, and suddenly realized that the light in my son's eyes seemed to have disappeared...
In the past, he was gentle and polite, like a piece of polished, smooth and translucent jade, and he would attract everyone's attention just by standing there.
The child they are most proud of...
Ling Yun couldn't help it, she covered her mouth and buried her head in her husband's chest, sobbing softly.
Mu Wenqian's eyes also turned red.
These are the parents who love him the most. How can Mu Huaijin not feel distressed when he sees them like this?
But what can he do?
Is it the best choice to give up Butler Zhong, listen to them, and marry a woman he doesn't love?
Because of their own conflicts, they ruined another woman's life.
Mu Huaijin believes that he can't do it.
Mu Wenqian calmed down for a moment, and his hoarse voice sounded again
"Child, this matter..."
Before he could finish his words, the study door was smashed open with a bang.
The three of them looked at the same time—
Mr. Mu and Mu Huaisheng were standing at the door.
The old man had no expression on his face, and Mu Huaisheng doubted his life...
He really didn't expect that it would be such a coincidence.
The final exams were approaching, so their school had a three-day holiday. He rushed back excitedly, wanting to take his family out for dinner.
He heard the servant say that his parents were in the study, so he went upstairs and pulled the old man down.
But who could have imagined that I would hear such an explosive thing at the door.
His brother and Butler Zhong...
Mu Huaisheng glanced at his old man quietly from the side, his facial expression did not change, as if he could not see anything.
The next second, the old man used his crutch to smash the door open.
Mu Huaisheng slowly opened his mouth until it was big enough to fit an egg.
If the occasion wasn't wrong, he would have wanted to praise the old man for being in good health despite his age.
......
"How soon will you two know about this?" The old man sat in the main seat in the study, looking at Mu Wenqian and Ling Yun with an expressionless face.
From the moment they first learned about the affair between Mu Huaijin and Butler Zhong, Mu Wenqian and his wife had never thought of telling the old man.
The old man is old, and they kept it a secret for fear of upsetting him.
But, truth will come out sooner or later.
Mu Wenqian glanced at the old man cautiously and said, "We found out about this after we came back from seeing Butler Zhong."
Old Master Mu has lived for so many years and has seen more than they have walked. He thought about his daughter-in-law's behavior during this period and understood something.
"So, the reason you've been so keen on arranging blind dates for Huaijin recently is because of this?" Old Master Mu looked at the two of them with a gleam in his eyes.
Mu Wenqian and Ling Yun nodded.
"madness!"
Old Master Mu knocked heavily on the table and looked at Mu Huaijin again, "How is Butler Zhong's leg?"
