Chapter 47 Couples Argue, Exposing Each Other's Shortcomings



Hearing Mu He slander her daughter like this, Zhang Xueqing couldn't sit still any longer. She walked up to her husband and said, "If you hadn't had Losang with An Nuan, Youyi wouldn't be in this situation today."

"In the end, it was you who wronged my daughter and me back then, and now you want to blame me?"

When Mu He heard her bring up the events of that year, he frowned slightly: "Didn't we agree not to talk about these things?"

He stood up and stared at the woman who was a head shorter than him: "If I hadn't been with An Nuan back then, I wouldn't have been able to get the He family's wealth. Without that money, we wouldn't have the riches and honors we have today."

"You were also a beneficiary, so what's the point of bringing it up now?"

At this point, Mu He kicked the chair next to him: "We've been husband and wife for over twenty years, and I've never had a relationship with another woman. I've been devoted to you, and every time we argue, you bring up An Nuan."

"Zhang Xueqing, don't go too far."

Zhang Xueqing knew she was in the wrong this time. An Nuan was a scar, a barrier, and a thorn in their side.

That thorn in my heart.

I hadn't felt it before, but ever since Losang came back, every time I see him, this thorn gets deeper, constantly reminding me of what happened between Mu He and An Nuan.

“If Losang hadn’t been so aggressive here, Youyi wouldn’t have done something so foolish.” Zhang Xueqing said, then burst into tears, feeling wronged. “You don’t need to remind me again and again. I know my daughter is not as good as An Nuan’s daughter.”

"When did I say your daughter is inferior to An Nuan's daughter?" Mu He felt that this woman was really being unreasonable.

"You said it! You just said it!" Zhang Xueqing roared, "Do you look down on me? Do you think An Nuan is better than me? After all, she's dead, and you can still get billions of dollars in inheritance from the He family."

“I come from an ordinary background, and I can’t compare to An Nuan in any way.”

Zhang Xueqing finally let out all the grievances she had held back for the past year; if she didn't speak out, she would suffocate.

“You brought Losang back and took over our second daughter’s identity, and I still have to treat her like my own daughter. Now that Youyi has made a small mistake, you’re already harping on it.” Zhang Xueqing pushed Mu He: “You heartless man, I misjudged you.”

This was the second time Mu He had seen Zhang Xueqing cry so uncontrollably. The first time was when he and An Nuan got married abroad, and she called him, crying like a child.

They got together when they were not yet twenty, were each other's first love, and had always had a good relationship. Seeing Zhang Xueqing crying like this, Mu He felt a little bad. He reached out and wanted to hug her and comfort her.

Zhang Xueqing pushed him away, saying, "Don't touch me."

"It's none of your business."

Mu He's personality was never good to begin with. The reason he was willing to lower himself to coax Zhang Xueqing was because he truly loved this woman. Now that he saw her being so ungrateful, he immediately gave up on coaxing her: "Then you should calm down. I'll go sleep in the guest room next door."

After saying that, Mu He left the room directly. To let Zhang Xueqing know that he was angry, he slammed the door shut as he left.

With a loud bang, Zhang Xueqing was startled.

She glanced at the door, walked forward expressionlessly, and locked it.

After making sure Mu He couldn't get in, Zhang Xueqing picked up her phone, sat on the sofa, and made a call.

A voice, indistinguishable as either male or female, came from the other end of the phone: "Why are you calling me at this hour?"

Zhang Xueqing slowly told the other party about what had happened in the past few days: "I suspect that Losang already knows some things, and I'm afraid she will investigate in secret."

"It's fine, let her investigate." The person on the other end sneered, "The more she knows, the faster she'll die."

Zhang Xueqing said, "She even took my daughter to the police station. You have to find a way to handle this for me. If anything happens to my daughter, I don't mind fighting to the death."

The person on the other end chuckled and said, "Are you threatening me?"

"I'm just telling you about my resolve as a mother." Even if she really favors her son and wants to leave everything in the Mu family to him, she won't abandon her daughter.

If it weren't for her behind-the-scenes manipulation, Youyi wouldn't have been able to own 5% of Mu's shares on her 18th birthday.

These are the most shares she, as a mother, can give her daughter.

The rest belong to her son.

As for Losang, well, he's just a stepping stone for the Mu family.

The person on the other end remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "Your daughter will definitely be able to go back tomorrow. I hope you can't control your mouth, otherwise, I don't mind taking action against your business partner."

"You know I have the ability to kill you without anyone noticing."

Zhang Xueqing shuddered upon hearing this. She knew that threatening the other party was a very risky thing, and that she and her daughter might lose their lives.

But she doesn't regret it.

She would never allow her daughter to have a criminal record.

Zhang Xueqing said, "Since you can kill me without anyone noticing, why don't you send Luosang to Ouyang Chen's bed without anyone noticing? I'd be happy to see her suffer."

"Do you think I'm a god who can deliver someone to Ouyang Chen's bed while he's on guard?"

“I don’t care about your grudges with Losang. Remember, watch your mouth, or your son far away in Zhongzhou will be in danger.”

Zhang Xueqing quickly said, "Don't touch my son."

A laugh came from the other end of the phone: "Don't worry, as long as you're still of use, I won't touch anyone around you."

"Zhang Xueqing, we've had a mutually beneficial relationship for so many years, I hope you won't disappoint me."

"Also, find a way to marry your daughter into the Si family. The Si family has something I want. If your daughter can help me get this one thing, I will give the Si family to her."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xueqing's heart pounded: "You, are you serious?"

If I can really get the Si family, I'd be willing to endure a little hardship and temporarily marry Si Tianrui.

"Really, the premise is that you have to ensure Mu Youyi's smooth marriage into the Si family. I will contact you then and tell you how to do it."

After saying that, the person hung up the phone immediately.

Once Zhang Xueqing received the man's promise, she suddenly stopped panicking. Since he said her daughter would be alright tomorrow, then she must be alright.

Over the years, they have always kept their promises.

The next morning, Mu He and Zhang Xueqing both went out. Aunt Fang told Losang that they wouldn't be back for lunch.

Losang thought for a moment, then smelled the old man's condition. Aunt Fang sighed, "He needs to be taken good care of."

"The chairman will not be discharged from the hospital so soon."

The chairman decided to stay at the hospital because he had professional care at home, but it was inconvenient to go back home.

Aunt Fang said, "The chairman asked about you yesterday."
