Chapter 556: Threatening for a Favor? (5)
No one disliked being praised. Meng Yueman was no exception. When she heard Dong Xuezhen complimenting her, she was in a good mood. “My son has had good taste since he was young.”
“He really has good taste!” Dong Xuezhen said. “I wonder how your daughter-in-law is doing now? I heard that she’s injured. Is her injury serious?”
“It’s just a superficial wound. It’s nothing serious,” Meng Yueman said as she looked at Bo Junyan. “Go bring Xiao Huan over.”
“Okay.” Bo Junyan stood up and walked toward the dining room.
Meng Yueman had wanted to talk to Dong Xuezhen about the plot of land, but now, she found it difficult to speak. Mu Huan had saved the granddaughter of the Dong family, and the fact that he came to talk to her now was like a gesture of grat.i.tude.
Ling Wei had thought of this as well, so she no longer had anything to discuss with Meng Yueman and Dong Xuezhen.
At the dining room…
Mu Huan put down her chopsticks and was about to stand up when she saw Bo Junyan coming in.
“Are you done with the discussion so soon?” Or did he feel that she was almost done with her food so he came back to carry her back to her room?
“He’s here to see you.”
“Me? Why is he looking for me?” Mu Huan didn’t know anyone by the name of Dong Xuezhen. Hence, she couldn’t figure out why he was looking for her. However, she quickly recalled that there was a rich man with the surname “Dong” in one of the missions she had completed. Instantly…
What the f*ck! Could it be that the second-generation heir’s father had found out her ident.i.ty and looked for her?
This…
Just when she was feeling a little fl.u.s.tered…
“The girl you saved is Dong Xuezhen’s granddaughter. He’s here to thank you.”
Mu Huan let out a sigh of relief when she heard this. So it wasn’t her fault.
“What were you afraid of just now?”
“I once bullied someone with the surname Dong. I thought it was his father who came to settle scores with me.” Mu Huan was telling the truth.
In that mission, she had tortured that Dong guy terribly!
Bo Junyan: “…”
Bo Junyan brought Mu Huan to the living room.
After a round of thanks and praise, Dong Xuezhen looked at Mu Huan and couldn’t help but say, “I can’t believe that such a small person like you would have the courage to jump down.”
He had watched the video, but the camera was too far away to record the events clearly, and her face was not visible. Hence, when he saw Mu Huan’s pet.i.te and delicate frame, he could not help but sigh. He did not know where she got the courage to jump down so fearlessly.
“I’m good at swimming.” Mu Huan smiled awkwardly.
He was once again impressed by her looks.
“I’ve heard that you were once the champion of the provincial high school sports meet.”
The sports event that Mu Huan attended in high school was rather popular, especially after she was able to qualify for the Olympics with her speed during the champions.h.i.+p. Hence, there were many media outlets that reported about it. As long as they investigated Mu Huan, they would be able to find out.
“That’s why it’s nothing much. You don’t have to stand on ceremony,” Mu Huan said.
“It’s a piece of cake for you, but for our family, you’ve saved our lives!” Dong Xuezhen was a very kind person. She had saved his granddaughter, which to him meant that she had saved his life.
“From now on, you can come to our family when you need something, no matter what it is!”
“Is anything really fine?” Mu Huan’s eyes lit up.
“Yes!”
“Then can you sell that piece of land to my husband?”
Instantly, everyone in the room looked toward Mu Huan.
Like Meng Yueman had thought earlier, even though Mu Huan had saved the Dong family’s life, that didn’t mean they could let anyone buy their land. This was because the grandfather had said that he wouldn’t sell it because he had memories with his wife in that place.
If someone were to ask them to sell their land in exchange for saving their lives, saying that that would be a way for them to repay the kindness…
