Chapter 1052
1052 Chapter 1053-living like a human, not like a ghost
Wen Muchu could not help but sneer when he heard Bai huien’s reprimand.
“What does it have to do with you what I want to do? Who are you to me? Do you think you can meddle in my Affairs just because you’re Madam President? He can’t even control Wen zhihuai, what right do you have to interfere in my business? I’m not a puppet that can be easily controlled by others, I advise you to put away your bad thoughts, Wuwu!”
Bai huien was completely speechless by Wen Muchu.
Her expression was extremely ugly.
Ever since she became Madam President, no one had dared to speak to her like that.
In the past, which one of those people didn’t flatter her when they saw her, and flatter her like a star?
A look of embarrassment flashed across her face.
Lan Xiao stood to the side, not saying a word.
She only squeezed Wen Muchu’s hand to give him some silent comfort.
Wen Muchu’s frustrated heart gradually calmed down because of Lan Xiao’s small action.
Staring at old Mr. Wen’s sullen expression, he felt that he might have gone too far.
However, if this grandfather of his could stand in his shoes and sincerely think for him, how could he be so rude to him?
“Old master, I actually want to call you Grandpa too, but Wanwan, honestly speaking, are you really doing all this for my own good? Or, are you just doing this for your own selfishness? For the Wen family’s benefit? I don’t want to be like Wen zhihuai, living the same life for decades, living like a ghost. If you really want the best for me, then please respect my choice. Perhaps, one day, I’ll have the chance to call you Grandpa.” Wen Muchu’s voice carried a trace of gentleness as he spoke indifferently.
After saying this, he pulled Lan Xiao and walked past them.
Old Mr. Wen was slightly taken aback, his eyes filled with confusion and helplessness.
What did his grandson say? He said that Wen zhihuai had lived the same life for decades, and he was neither a human nor a ghost.
Could it be that he had really made a mistake back then?
Although his son had become the president, what else did the Wen family have other than the cold and powerful authority?
Originally, at his age, it was time for him to enjoy the joy of family and play with his grandchildren.
However, to him, it was all an extravagant hope.
He looked at the other party carrying a grandson and having a house full of children and grandchildren.
As for the Wen family, day after day, year after year, they were as cold as ice, without a trace of humanity.
Was this what he really wanted?
In the end, no matter how powerful the Wen family was, no matter how much glory they had, without an heir to inherit the family, wouldn’t the family still walk towards destruction?
Old Mr. Wen’s body swayed slightly, as if he was suddenly enlightened.
Although his grandson’s words were harsh, they hit the nail on the head.
Old Mr. Wen’s eyes suddenly welled up with tears as he stared blankly at the distant figure.
Bai huien held old Mr. Wen and complained in a low voice.
“Dad, this Mu Chu is too much. It’s fine that he was so rude to me, but how could he speak to you like that? You’re his grandfather, and zhihuai is his father. If he didn’t call him by his name, he would call him Mr. President. This was really inappropriate. If word of this gets out, where will the Wen family put our face?”
Old Mr. Wen snapped back to his senses and looked at Bai huien coldly.
“Continue, Yingluo.”
Bai huien was slightly taken aback. She did not expect old Mr. Wen to look at her with such a cold gaze.
She couldn’t help but feel her heart tremble slightly. She twitched her lips and said with a trace of flattery.
“Dad, I’m just fighting for you. This child has never enjoyed a higher education. In the future, you must teach him well. Otherwise, if you’re still as willful as you are today, it’ll be a bad thing.”
“Dad, it seems like he wants to announce his relationship with Lan Xiao to the public. He’s too young and doesn’t know how to look at the big picture. As his elders, we have to think more about him.”
Bai huien’s heart was filled with anxiety. If Wen Muchu were to disclose his relationship with Lan Xiao, what would happen to the Bai family?
What about Bai Fuxin?
The Bai family still wanted to have a marriage alliance with the future president so that they could maintain their glory for the next few decades.
She could not let such a ridiculous thing happen.
“Dad, you have to do something about it. You can’t let Mu Chu mess around like this.” Bai huien’s face was filled with worry. Seeing that old Mr. Wen was not speaking, she continued to persuade him.
She initially thought that old Mr. Wen would fly into a rage and stop Wen Muchu again.
Old Mr. Wen snorted coldly and glared at Bai huien.
“Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking. Your Bai family wants to form a marriage alliance with the Wen family to continue the glory of your Bai family.”
Bai huien panicked, sensing that old Mr. Wen was getting angry.
She hurriedly interrupted old Mr. Wen and said, ” “Dad, you’ve misunderstood. The marriage between the Bai family and the Wen family was a win-win situation for both families. Besides, didn’t you agree with me before?”
Old Mr. Wen glanced at Wen Muchu’s back view and said with a slight sigh.
I agreed with it before, but I realized that some things and some people may be more important than interests and family honor.
Bai huien was shocked and looked at old Mr. Wen in disbelief.
“Dad, what do you mean?”
Old Mr. Wen glanced at Bai huien with a meaningful look in his eyes. He snorted and left the place with his hands behind his back, returning to his seat.
Bai huien’s heart was filled with apprehension. What did the old master mean by this?
Could it be that he was completely ignoring this matter?
How could that be possible?
Bai huien’s heart was in a state of panic. Madam Bai saw that she did not look well and quickly came over to hold her hand.
“Huien, what’s wrong? Why do you look so pale?”
Bai huien looked at Madam Bai, her voice trembling.
“Sister-in-law, I’m afraid that our Bai family can’t form a marriage alliance with the Wen family this time, Zhenzhen.”
Madam Bai’s expression changed, and she immediately questioned in a low voice, ” “What do you mean, huien? I’ve secretly released the news. Almost half of the people who attended the banquet tonight know that the Bai family is going to marry the Wen family again. You suddenly told me that you can’t form a marriage alliance with the Bai family. Where will the Bai family put their face?”
Bai huien was extremely flustered. She bit her lip and looked at Wen Muchu and Lan Xiao.
The two of them stood below the stage, seemingly waiting for Wen zhihuai’s speech to end.
“Sister-in-law, Wen Muchu, Qianqian, will not listen to the arrangements of the Wen family. He is not Wen zhihuai, Qianqian.”
Madam Bai followed Bai huien’s gaze and looked at Wen Muchu.
When she saw Wen Muchu holding a girl’s hand and standing below the stage …
Her face turned ashen.
Around the stage, there were already some people who had noticed that something was wrong and were whispering in low voices.
