Chapter 100: Double the Market Price
Mu Chen was embarra.s.sed. Previously, he had only asked the Mu family for the money to buy Fang Mo’er’s shares at market price.
Now, it was the equivalent of asking for twice the market price.
Mu Chen also felt extremely humiliated.
Now, not only did he not have any dignity in the Mu family, but because he had pleaded with the Mu family so many times, he had become the most useless Young Master of the Mu family.
His elder brother and elder sister were both more promising and influential than him.
!!
Only he…
“Brother, I promised to get the shares back. When the time comes, I’ll be giving it to Rong ‘er as a betrothal gift,” Mu Chen said helplessly.
There was no reply from the other side.
There was only the news of the arrival of the money.
Mu Chen felt as if his face had been slapped hard.
Fang Mo’er looked at Mu Chen’s expression as he went through his internal struggle.
However, she felt extremely relieved.
All of this had belonged to her original character. Why was Mu Chen acting as if he was now being cheated of a large sum of money?
Back then, when her original character’s money had been cheated by him, he had not said a single word.
Mu Chen put his phone away and said coldly, “Fang Mo’er, I hope that I won’t be seeing you again in the future. We’ll be completely even in the future!”
He said arrogantly, “This is double the market price. Sign it.”
Fang Mo’er clicked her tongue and whistled as she signed.
Soon, a sum of money was transferred to Fang Mo’er’s account. 100 million.
Fang Mo’er now had a large sum of money in her hands, so she was naturally in a good mood.
She did not say anything unpleasant. Instead, she waved her hand at Mu Chen. “Mr. Mu Chen, I also hope that we won’t have any interactions in the future! It’s best if you and Bai Rong stay far away from me. I’ll follow my path and you can follow your own. Just don’t interfere with my business.”
After saying that, Fang Mo’er turned around and returned to the party.
Shi Mo saw that she was in a good mood and could not help but lean over. As he selected some food for her, he asked her, “What made you so happy?”
Fang Mo’er replied, “I sold the shares of the company for a good price. Shouldn’t I be happy?”
Bai Rong, who was on the other side of the table, was also feeling smug.
However, when she heard this, she could not help but ask Mu Chen, “How much did you give her?”
Fang Mo’er was looking very smug.
Meanwhile, Mu Chen felt as if his heart was bleeding. “Please stop asking.”
Bai Rong’s face turned pale and she could not bring herself to be happy.
On the other side, Fang Mo’er said to Shi Mo, “It wasn’t much. It was only twice the market price. After all, the Mu family is really rich. I think I should ask the Mu family if they want to adopt a daughter.”
Mu Ye’s eyelashes twitched when he heard that.
Fang Mo’er was extremely sarcastic.
He did not know how Fang Mo’er had been taken advantage of by Mu Chen in the past. However, she had just turned the tables now.
Shi Mo smiled and said, “Silly, I’m enough as long as you have me! You don’t have to be someone else’s adopted daughter.”
Fang Mo’er stuck out her tongue and said, “That’s true.”
Shi Mo and Fang Mo’er spoke as if there was no one around them.
On the other side of the table, Mu Chen and Bai Rong’s faces were already ashen.
Even Mu Ye had given Fang Mo’er an unfriendly glance. She had actually dared to blackmail the Mu family. How bold of her.
Bai Rong quickly raised her gla.s.s. “Young Master Mu, let me propose a toast to you.”
Bai Rong had never dared to act rashly towards Mu Ye. Firstly, Mu Ye was currently the most powerful person in the Mu family. Secondly, Mu Ye was not a kind person. There had once been a banquet where someone had recklessly offended Mu Ye. Mu Ye had then used a gun to cripple one of his legs.
That person had been quietly thrown out, without daring to take any revenge on Mu Ye.
It was clear that Mu Ye was not as easy a person to get along with as he appeared on the surface.
The Mu family was able to tolerate Mu Chen’s existence and acknowledge this illegitimate child. If Mu Ye had not accepted Mu Chen, things would not have gone so smoothly.
Mu Ye did not even bother to look at Bai Rong. He raised his gla.s.s and downed it in one gulp. Then, he stood up. “I have something to do so I’ll take my leave first.”
Mu Chen hurriedly stood up. “Brother, let me send you off.”
Mu Ye waved him off and walked out.
Mu Chen’s expression turned ugly for a moment. Then, he sat down and tried to hide his embarra.s.sment as he smiled and said, “My brother is much too busy.”
Everyone laughed as well.
On that night, Fang Mo’er had drunk quite a lot because she was extremely happy.
In the end, it was Shi Mo who led the stumbling Fang Mo’er away.
“I still want to drink, don’t drag me away!”
“Alright, there’ll be more wine to drink when we get back.”
“I want to drink here.”
“Mo’er, this is liquor, not water.”
Shi Mo was helpless and had to resort to picking her up by her waist.
However, Fang Mo’er was feeling restless and kept twisting her waist to try and get down.
After much difficulty, she was finally placed into the car. Shi Mo bent down to pick up the seatbelt and fastened it tightly around her.
“Don’t tie me up!” Fang Mo’er tried to struggle, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not break free.
Shi Mo stared at her for a while and sighed, “Are you really happy that you drank so much?”
“Of course I’m happy, 100 million!”
However, everyone present thought that Fang Mo’er had suddenly drunk so much just because she was feeling hurt.
Even Shi Mo could not help but think so as well.
No one would be this happy to see someone they had loved before suddenly get engaged today.
