Lin Yin stood on the steps of the middle staircase. Mu Cheng stood proudly on the other side of Lin Yin and smiled at everyone. “Thank you for coming to my daughter’s birthday banquet. I can use this opportunity today to officially introduce the Mu Family’s only daughter, Lin Yin!”
As soon as Mu Cheng finished speaking, enthusiastic applause came from the banquet hall. However, there were many sounds under the applause.
“Indeed, it’s interesting to listen to other people’s gossip. Listen to Mu Cheng. It’s obvious that he doesn’t count that adopted daughter under his name. It seems like Mu Cheng and his wife don’t admit Mu Ning’s ident.i.ty.”
“Of course. If you have a biological child, you naturally dote on your biological child. ”
“It doesn’t matter if they’re biological or not. As long as they’re adopted, they’re their children. Isn’t Mu Cheng and his wifé going overboard this time?”
“How can this be called going overboard? Think about it. Ye Wen went crazy after losing her child back then, and Mu Cheng left the Mu Family at that time. The two of them almost never returned to the Mu Family’s old residence.
“According to what you said, Mu Ning should be Old Master Mu’s adopted daughter? Then if we have to account for that, Mu Ning will have to call
Brother Mu Cheng. In other words, Mu Ning is Lin Yin’s Auntie. Hahaha!”
“Auntie? I’ve heard Mu Ning call Lin Yin Sister. Isn’t the seniority messed up all of a sudden? What a messy way of addressing each other. It’s really not like the Mu family. They always pay attention to etiquette”
At this moment, Mu Ning had already arrived at the banquet hall with Mu Kun and his wife. When she heard such discussions, her expression was a little ugly. Mu Kun’s expression turned even uglier as he glanced at Sun Yun with a dark gaze.
Although he knew that it had already happened and it was useless to point fingers after it had happened, he still felt that Sun Yun had an irrefutable part to play.
Back then if Sun Yun had not insisted on putting the adopted Mu Ning under Mu Cheng and his wife’s name without asking for their opinion, the Mu family wouldn’t have been a joke to others and discussed so brazenly.
Mu Cheng, who was standing at a high place, was stunned when she saw Mu Kun and Sun Yun. Although he had a smile on his face, he shouted, “Dad, Mom, you’re here?”
As Mu Cheng finished speaking, everyone followed his gaze and saw three people standing at the entrance of the banquet hall.
The people standing in front of Mu Kun just now looked a little embarra.s.sed. They had just discussed the Mu family wantonly in front of the members of the Mu family.
The Mu brothers hurriedly went forward to welcome Mu Kun. This was an important segment that would make their Yinyin respected in the capital.
After Mu Cheng and Ye Wen looked at each other, they brought Lin Yin down and walked towards Mu Kun and his wife.
Mu Kun took out a gift with a faint smile. “This is the birthday gift your mother and I prepared for Yinyin.”
Sun Yun was a little stunned. When did she prepare a gift for Lin Yin? However, she quickly understood that Mu Kun was probably afraid that others would know that she didn’t like Lin Yin, so he deliberately came out to put on a show to make everyone think that the Mu family was harmonious.
As soon as Mu Kun finished speaking, he turned to look at Lin Yin and handed a gift box to her. He smiled and said, “This is your very first gift from Grandpa.
Open it and see if you like it.”
Lin Yin looked at Mu Kun hesitantly. Ye Wen immediately held Lin Yin’s hand happily and said, “Yinyin, quickly accept the gift.”
Only then did Lin Yin take the gift box from Mu Kun’s hand. Everyone was curious about what Mu Kun had given Lin Yin for her birthday.
Most of the guests present had come from Mu Ning’s birthday banquet just now, so many of them even stared at the gift box with the intention of watching the show. They wanted to know if Mu Kun was impartial.
Lin Yin opened the gift box under everyone’s eager and curious gazes. A refreshing fragrance first spread out, followed by waves of sweetness.
Someone in the crowd recognized this gift and exclaimed, “This is the agarwood bracelet from the Yellow Crown Auction House last month, right? I heard it cost more than six million yuan!”
Perhaps stimulated by the agarwood, someone looked at the wooden box containing the agarwood and asked hesitantly, “Could this box be made of yellow pear wood? The craft on the box seems like a National Heritage craft.”
“I’ve seen this before. It’s from the Yellow Crown Auction House last year. It’s yellow rosewood from the Ming Dynasty. This box is worth 5.88 million yuan!” Everyone turned to look at Mu Ning. The meaning in their eyes was obvious..
