Chapter 906: Birthday Feast VIII
Later, Mu Xing learned that Suyi had used the spirit herbs to help the newly recruited so-called geniuses.
In the Mu family, all the servants and maids had served the Mu family all their lives. They would never recruit people from the outside.
After all, to the Mu family, talent was not too important. Even if one’s strength was poor, they could use the spirit herbs to boost it.
Nonetheless, Suyi had recruited some people from the outside when she was in charge of the Mu family. She preferred to give the spirit herbs to outsiders rather than giving them to Mu Xing’s grandson.
Everyone in the Mu family would receive some spirit herbs each month. However, Mu Xing’s grandson’s talent was too weak. What effects could the few normal spirit herbs have? If it were not for Suyi, his grandson would have achieved something in those years!
Qingyan was a different person.
Those geniuses that Suyi had recruited were driven away by Qingyan after Suyi had left. She had used all the resources on the people of the Mu family.
The many spirit herbs had finally allowed his grandson to achieve Spirit Warrior tier. Thus, he was very grateful to Qingyan.
All the people gathered at the banquet hall.
It was very rare for the old master to not lose his temper and smile. Although his smile looked a little silly, it still made Mu Ling feel relieved.
Fortunately, the old master still knew how to behave on certain occasions even when he was sick. If he bullied Qingyan on such an occasion, the entire Mu family would be embarra.s.sed.
His father would not do such a thing.
“Butler, do you think I look handsome today?” The old master smiled and asked.
The butler smiled bitterly. “You always look handsome.”
“Oh, then can I have the turkey soup that Suyi has cooked today?” The old master antic.i.p.ated.
Even Mu Ling who had always made him displeased was pleasing to his eyes today.
Maybe it was because his mood was better today.
But his old face could not help but sink a little after seeing Chen Qingyan standing next to Mu Ling. He stared at her angrily.
“Master, today is your birthday. Lady Suyi will return this year too.” The butler reminded. “If you embarra.s.sed Chen Qingyan in public, the Mu family would also be embarra.s.sed. Think about it. If Nan Xian takes over the Mu family…”
Old Master Mu was like an old child when he was sick.
Children were the easiest to coax.
Old Master Mu held back his anger and snorted after listening to the butler’s words. “I will let her off today!”
It was so frustrating that he could not hit the bad woman.
The old master turned his anger toward his appet.i.te. He then kept stuffing desserts into his mouth.
The butler quickly s.n.a.t.c.hed the desserts from the old master. “Master, you have to take care of your image. Lady Suyi and Young Master Nan Xian will be returning soon. You must take care of your image.”
Fortunately, all the guests present were busy talking. Hence, not so many people had seen the old master’s behavior.
Suddenly, silence fell. Everyone’s eyes turned toward the door in astonishment.
There was a beautiful woman standing next to Qin Li and Wen Yu.
The woman was as beautiful as Xi Shi—one of the renowned beauties in the world. She had an elegant smile on her face. Her face was slightly pale due to her poor health.
“Is this the young lady of the Qin family? Well, she has grown into a beautiful woman.”
