Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Mu Jianxin’s face was like the bottom of a pan. Mu Yuan did not dare to move his eyes. After living for more than 20 years, it was the first time that he felt himself stammering. “Dad… dad… dad… mom… I… can explain.”

“Jerk!” Mu Jianxin was furious as he pointed at Mu Yuan. Mu Yuan followed his gaze and hurriedly removed his teasing hand from Jack. Would it be too late now to say that he was his comrade?

Is there still time?

“You…” Mother Mu also felt that it was a little shocking. “Xiaoyuan, who is he?”

“Comrade!” Mu Yuan was like a new recruit who answered the commander-in-chief’s query.

Mu Jianxin took vigorous strides as he walked over. Mu Yuan subconsciously wanted to hide Jack behind him. As a general of the country, Mu Jianxin was a general with real power. Comrade? 

“Which troop is he from? What is his name!”

Mu Yuan’s face turned pale. “I… ”

“Xiaoyuan… ” Jack was somewhat high from drinking. He was miserable and called him gently. Mu Yuan’s mother stared at him. It was all right if he had called his nickname, but he even called until so intimately. When she thought of her son’s matter a few days ago, which created a big scandal and even caused her to fall sick, Mother Mu felt herself blacking out, and she nearly fainted.

Mu Yuan had difficulty speaking at that moment. Mu Jianxin’s palm came over and gave a loud slap on his face. He slapped him until one side of his face swelled immediately. Mu Jianxin was a general. He also started out with the special forces. His strength was big, and he hit heavily. Mu Yuan was hit until he saw stars, but he did not dare to hide. Mu Jianxin’s second slap came, and it was blocked by Mother Mu.

“You have to listen to your child’s explanation.”

Mu Jianxin put down his hand furiously. “Go home immediately!”

“Yes!”

Mu Yuan got slapped once and did not dare to let out a sigh. He used one hand to support Jack and the other hand to do a military salute. Jack was miserable and wanted to throw up. He leaned his head on the socket of Mu Yuan’s shoulder, and his lips were stuck to his neck. Mother Mu blacked out.

“Aiya, my heart… ”

“Mom…” Mu Yuan wanted to cry, but there were no tears.

…

Mu Yuan put Jack on the bed and glanced at him deeply. He turned and left the bedroom.

He knew.

The storm that belonged to him had come.

The atmosphere in the Mu Family was very tense. The Mu Family members were all present except for Mu Chen, who had taken office overseas. The moment Mu Yuan got home, he was called by Mu Jianxin to the ancestral hall. Mu Jianxin held a ruler and stood at a side.

“Kneel down!” Mu Jianxin roared furiously.

Mu Yuan kneeled down with both legs straight. The two brothers in the Mu Family, Mu Jianshou and Mu Jianxin, had two sons. One was Mu Chen, and the other was Mu Yuan. One was in politics, and the other was in the military. They had always complemented each other.

They were also the pride of the Mu Family’s second generation.

Mu Jianshou and his wife, and Mu Jianxin and his wife, were in the ancestral hall. They had heard of Mu Yuan’s matter. It was only that they did not dare to believe it and also did not dare to confirm it.

“Who is he?”

Mu Yuan had a clear conscience. He had a clear conscience with regard to his country and also had a clear conscience of himself. He only did not have a clear conscience towards his parents. He had not even thought of the future. It was because he obviously knew that there was no future, and he only did not want to live in regret for the rest of his life.

He also could not admit it. Jack’s identity was a secret. If it was exposed, there would be a big dispute. He was afraid that his father would rather hit him to death with a stick and would rather not have given birth to him.

“I have nothing to say!” He did not wish to admit and also did not wish to lie.

“Absurd!” Mu Jianxin was in a rage. “Take off your clothes!”

Mu Yuan did not say anything further. He took off his coat and shirt, which exposed his solid back that was filled with scars. Mu Jianxin’s ruler hit him heavily on his back. The sound of the ruler hitting his flesh was heavy and depressing. Mu Jianxin hit Mu Yuan until a very big mark appeared on his back.
