Shen Su widened her eyes. “Aren’t you too bold? If it wasn’t Mu Ci, if it wasn’t because he happened to know you and was looking for you, what would you do if it was someone else? It would be fine if you met someone like my Big Brother. At most, he would ignore you and leave you aside. But if he’s a psychopath—”

Shen Su did not dare to think further. She complained, “You’re too rash. You really should thank the gods and Buddhas for their blessings!”

Bei Shuo smiled happily. “So, look, everything has its own plans. The heavens won’t leave good girls like us alone. You shouldn’t always think about being liked by your elders, brothers, and sisters. You have to like yourself first. That’s the most important thing. If you don’t like yourself, who will care about you?”

Shen Su stared at Bei Shuo. No one had ever told her this before. This was the first time someone had made her like herself!

Uncle Jiang stood at the table. Mu Chen frowned gloomily. “What kind of nonsense is this?”

Uncle Jiang said, “I’ve already asked the police. It was an emergency. The hospital was on fire and two wards were severely damaged. A mentally ill patient didn’t manage to escape and unfortunately died. The hospital is cooperating with the police to deal with it. The patient is alone and doesn’t have a family. It saved a lot of trouble.”

“Eldest Young Madam met a knife-wielding criminal with a mental illness downstairs. That person had wanted to slash at Miss Shen. Our Eldest Young Madam pounced over and protected Miss Shen. She was seriously injured and is still in the hospital’s private ward. Eldest Young Master stayed very close to her.”

“Now that everyone in the Shen Family has become closer to Eldest Young Madam, they haven’t stopped visiting and accompanying her. However, no one in our family has gone yet.”

Mu Chen’s face darkened. “Go tell Eldest Madam. Forget it, don’t tell her. She’ll be infuriated if she goes. Go and inform Second Madam.”

Uncle Jiang said carefully, “Old Master, if Second Madam goes, I’m afraid Eldest Madam will cause trouble again when she finds out.”

Mu Chen fell silent.

Uncle Jiang said, “Why don’t I go?”

Mu Chen finally nodded. “Yes, go find Liu Ming to understand more. Liu Ming has been with Mu Ci for so many years. It’s still very easy for them to hide some things from us.”

“Yes, Old Master. I’ll talk to him,” Uncle Jiang replied.

Mu Chen glanced at him. “We’re all old. Young people are starting to think of fooling us. Ah Jiang, you should know what to do.”

“Yes, Old Master,” Uncle Jiang replied.

Mu Chen closed his eyes and rested. He went through everything that had happened recently, especially Mu Ci’s suggestion.

“Grandpa, if Bei Shuo hadn’t appeared, I would only have half a year left to live. For the sake of the Mu Family, you have to make plans. Pretend that the original plan hasn’t changed. Pretend that I didn’t exist!”

“Nonsense! Nonsense! Bei Shuo already said that you’re fine! You can already walk! You’re the eldest grandson of the Mu Family! Its your responsibility!”

“Grandpa, I have been seriously ill for many years. I have long seen through life and death. As a descendant of the Mu Family, I can do my best for the Mu Family until I die. However, I can’t let the Mu Family fall into internal strife and destroy the Mu Familys hundred-year-old foundation for my own selfish reasons.”

“Nonsense, how is it your own selfish thoughts!’ Its only right for you to take over the Mu Family!”

“Grandpa, after so many years, what about my uncles and brothers who know that I don’t have long to live and work hard to shoulder the burden of the Mu Family? Is it fair to them? Grandpa, I’m the eldest branch’s eldest grandson, but the Mu Family doesn’t belong to me alone! You and Grandma have done me a lot of kindness, but its also because of this that I can’t be selfish. We have to look at the big picture and think about the future of the Mu Family.”

Mu Ci was so sincere that he almost wavered.

However, he couldn’t see it clearly. He couldn’t see Mu Ci’s sincerity. He felt that Mu Ci was too sincere. Such honesty made him uneasy.

The Mu Family would always be the most important thing in his heart. He was the eldest branch’s eldest grandson. When he took over the Mu Family back then, it was also overnight. However, there was also supreme glory. No one could reject such glory.

He didn’t believe that Mu Ci could let it go. With Mu Ci’s ability, what would happen in the end if he let him go? He couldn’t and didn’t dare to imagine it.

Hence, wasn’t trapping Mu Ci the best outcome for the Mu Family?
