Chapter 53 - 53 Miss Bei's Performance
53 Miss Bei’s Performance
Duan Si snorted. “We still don’t understand the dispute. One moment, I heard that you have cut ties, and the next moment, I heard you say you’re a pair of loving mother and daughter. Who knows what’s real? This small family has so many dirty things!”
Duan Si couldn’t wait to vent her anger. Hence, she became sarcastic.
Mu Chen stood up and said calmly, “Mu Ci, this is your family matter. You can handle it yourself.”
“Alright, Grandpa.” Mu Ci nodded slightly.
Mu Chen did not say anything to the Bei Family’s mother and daughter and walked away.
At this point, Shen Yu didn’t dare to say anything. The most important thing now was to keep the 20 million yuan business.
However, Bei Le thought that with Mu En around, the Bei Family would definitely have another 20 million yuan without this 20 million yuan! The most important thing now was to let Madam Mu have a good impression of her. Only then would her chances of success be higher.
For such a wealthy family, it was not enough for a wife to only win her husband’s heart. Bei Shuo had clearly failed. She could not follow in her footsteps.
Hence, she bit her lip and looked at Mu Ci pitifully. “Brother-in-law, we really want Sister to be happy. No matter how difficult it is for my father and brother, they won’t use Sister’s life to exchange for the stability of our family.”
She looked at Bei Shuo again and tears fell. “Sister, don’t be angry with us anymore. We’re family after all! You’re the biological daughter of the Bei Family! Dad, Mom, and Brother treat me, their adopted daughter, as their own. How can they ignore their biological daughter like you? Sister, there’s no overnight grudge between us as a family. Everything Dad and Mom do is for our own good. Look at you now. Aren’t you very good with Brother-in-law? Don’t be angry anymore, okay?”
Even Duan Si was less moved by her tears.
Song Nan watched coldly, but she looked at Mu En.
Mu En secretly looked at Mu Ci and Bei Shuo.
Bei Shuo was clearly stunned by Bei Le’s performance. Deep down, she knew that Bei Le was just putting on an act. Although she had only been in the Bei Family for less than a month, this sister of hers, who was not related by blood, had caused chaos in the Bei Family. At one point, Bei Shuo felt that she had occupied her position and was an intruder.
Bei Le had spent a lot of effort to chase her out. What was she trying to do now?
Mu Ci frowned and rejoiced inwardly. Fortunately, he went to the Bei Family and took Bei Shuo away without hesitation. Otherwise, Bei Shuo probably wouldn’t even know how she died.
This was the world. Those who were kind-hearted would always be bullied by those shameless people.
However, with him around, Bei Shuo would never be bullied by anyone again.
Mu Ci shook Bei Shuo’s hand. “Girl, let’s forgive her then, lest someone slanders you.”
Bei Shuo didn’t care if it was dirty or not. However, she felt that Mu Ci had other intentions, so she nodded. “I’ll listen to Brother, but I’m very busy and don’t have time to care about them.”
Mu Ci’s smile was only for Bei Shuo. “Alright, go upstairs and see if your walk-in wardrobe suits you.”
Bei Shuo smiled brightly and nodded happily. “Alright!”
Bei Shuo turned around and left. She didn’t take the elevator. Instead, she ran upstairs two steps at a time.
Everyone downstairs was dumbfounded.
Duan Si took a deep breath. “W-what’s this? What kind of upbringing is this? Huh? What kind of rules?”
Mu Ci said calmly, “Mom doesn’t think it’s good? I’m very envious. I even dream of running and jumping like her.”
Duan Si immediately shut up. This was an untouchable topic.
However, she was very unwilling to be embarrassed by her son, so she said stiffly, “If she wants to be the Young Madam of the Mu Family, she should act like the Young Madam of the Mu Family. Being dignified and virtuous is the most basic!”
“I’m afraid none of those dignified and virtuous young ladies are willing to marry into the family to celebrate, right? They’ll be widows in half a year. Who’s willing to make such a sacrifice?” Mu Ci’s tone was even colder.
Duan Si couldn’t stand it anymore. Without Old Master’s mediation, she said angrily, “Are you blaming me? Do you have to talk to me like this? I’m your mother! No matter what, you’re my child! What right do you have to blame me?”
Mu Ci lowered his head gently and lowered his eyes. He said calmly, “Everyone has their own fate. I don’t blame anyone. Hence, no one can criticize Bei Shuo. I won’t allow my girl to be bullied, be it in person or behind her back! As long as I’m alive, I’ll protect her for as long as I live!”
