Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Mu family’s Clan Hall.
Everyone gathered there. Their eyes were burning with anger and their faces livid with rage.
“Young Master, do we have to let that woman act so wantonly in the Mu family?”
“She has acted recklessly in the Mu family and now she has also abducted the Qin family’s young master. She is Young Master Nan Xian’s woman anyway. What would Nan Xian say about it? ”
“Young Master, we need to deal with this matter. Otherwise, this Mu family is not the Mu family anymore!”
Mu Ling kept his face straight. He looked unhappy. “Even before being demoted, I couldn’t do anything about it. Now that I have been demoted, what do you want me to do? Nan Xian never listens to me and he fights with me! ”
There was no father who was more miserable than him. He could not even stand up to his own son.
And these people were still forcing him to the corner like this!
What could he do? He wanted the Mu family to be as it was before too. But asking him to find Nan Xian, was it not sending him off to be beaten?
“Where’s the old master? Did he just let them fool around like this?” Mu Yan was annoyed. “If this situation continues, the Mu family’s reputation will be sullied by these people. Young Master, I have told you before, do not let Young Lady return. Having Lady Qing Yan here is already enough for the Mu family, there is no need to…”
“Enough!”
Bang!
Mu Ling suddenly slammed his fist causing one of the walls next to him to collapse. This made everyone stop talking at once.
His face was livid and his voice sounded fierce. “This matter has nothing to do with Suyi. You don’t have to drag her. After all, I owe her a favor.”
The people in the clan hall were all surprised. They had mentioned these things before, but they had never seen the young master get so angry. Today, to defend Suyi, the young master had gotten so furious.
Mu Ying’s eyes sank. Had the young master ever thought about it? He protected the young lady like this, then where in his life did he place Lady Qingyan?
The young lady had only encroached the position. All these years, it was Lady Qingyan who had worked for the Mu family. If it was not because of the spirit herbs given by Lady Qingyan, his grandson would not have been able to break through this realm.
As for Chen Qingyan, Mu Ling’s heart was full of grat.i.tude.
“Young Master…”
“Fine.” Mu Ling’s frown gradually faded. His hands were tightly crossed. “Say no more. If Feng Ruqing and Nan Xian continue making trouble in the Mu family, just let them go first. Be sure not to raise any conflict.
“Because …” The corners of his lips lifted into a bitter smile. “They came here for revenge. The more you raise a conflict with them, the more intense they will get. I can’t beat Nan Xian and there is no other way we can do it.”
This was Mu Ling’s first admission that he was not Nan Xian’s rival!
He had always thought that Nan Xian’s skill was much higher than ordinary people’s but it had never occurred to him that Nan Xian would be so keen to that extent. Nan Xian had unexpectedly exceeded his power.
With Nan Xian in this Mu family, what else could he do?
Even when Qingyan was wronged, he was not capable of avenging her!
“Furthermore, the old master is recovering. It’s a good thing for the Mu family. It looks as if it will not take a long time for him to recover.”
‘The old master recovering is an excellent thing for the Mu family.
‘But it’ll make Qingyan suffer.’
Mu Ling’s eyes were suddenly filled with determination like a boundless night sky.
“As for Qingyan, I won’t give up on her. It doesn’t matter if my father agrees or not. Qingyan must stay in the Mu family. I won’t let her go just because of this. I know you all love Qingyan. So do I.”
