Mu Jiu Chen felt annoyed at the mention of not being married and having children.
"Who says I'm not married and have children? I'm chasing my wife right now! I have three kids. If you all stay with me, how can I have dates? I can't pay for your love just because you're heartbroken!" Da Feng Xiao Shuo Wang
None of them lacked a place to live, yet they all wanted to mooch off him.
And eat and drink for free!
Li Qing Shuo: "...My staying here doesn't affect your dating. Instead, it helps. Tomorrow morning, Nuan Nuan will come to give me acupuncture, and you'll have the chance to see her then."
"I'm telling the truth. Think about it, your professions are poles apart. One is a chef and a doctor, and you're a domineering CEO. In the business world, you'd almost never encounter each other."
Mu Jiu Chen nodded. That made sense.
"Is Nuan Nuan a name you can just call casually?"
Li Qing Shuo: "..."
Mu Jiu Chen then looked at He Ming Run. He Ming Run was also contemplating how to impress Mu Jiu Chen.
He looked at Mu Jiu Chen. His brow bone was slightly high, giving him a profound gaze. His brow bone lines were sharp, and when he met someone's eyes, he exuded an undisguised sense of distance and arrogance.
He smiled and said, "Little Jiu, I can offer you advice and help you pursue Jiang Nuan."
Upon hearing this, Mu Jiu Chen thought it was a good reason.
"Fine, all of you can stay," Mu Jiu Chen agreed instantly. His primary mission was to win back his wife and children.
Li Qing Shuo looked at Mu Jiu Chen with a hint of jealousy. "Little Jiu, this is like a dream. In the blink of an eye, you're a father of three."
Mu Jiu Chen nodded proudly. "You can envy me slowly. I'll tell you every day, 'I, Mu Jiu Chen, have triplets.'"
Li Qing Shuo: "..."
...
Jiang Nuan had been very busy lately. Time flew by when she was occupied. A week passed, and Jiang Yu Kuo's hand had healed. Jiang Nuan sent her son back to school.
As the fifteenth of August approached, Jiang Nuan received a call from Old Master Mu.
Jiang Nuan planned to celebrate the fifteenth with her children and grandfather when they had their holiday on the fifteenth of August.
Meng Yuan also planned to visit her parents.
Yun Xia had also agreed to spend the reunion festival with her sister.
Jiang Xing Yu had mentioned going to a friend's house. Everyone had made their own arrangements.
Jiang Nuan still agreed to Old Master Mu's request. After sending out the anti-acne creams and skin-repairing transparent skin water to the various celebrities, she went to the old Mu family residence.
Jiang Nuan also specially baked mooncakes suitable for the elderly and brought them with her.
When she arrived at the old Mu family residence, Butler Hong personally greeted her at the main entrance.
"Miss Jiang, you're here."
Jiang Nuan smiled and nodded. "Butler Hong."
"Please come in quickly. The Old Master has been mentioning you since early this morning," Butler Hong said in a gentle and kindly tone.
"Alright, I'll go see Grandpa." As Jiang Nuan walked a few steps, she heard someone calling her from behind.
"Nuan Nuan."
Jiang Nuan paused. This was... Yun Tong.
Jiang Nuan turned around and saw Mu Yun Xiao supporting Yun Tong as they alighted from the car. Yun Tong's pregnancy wasn't obvious yet, but her walking posture was very careful, indicating she was pregnant.
"Sister Yun Tong," Jiang Nuan greeted with a smile.
Yun Tong hadn't expected to encounter Jiang Nuan. The Old Master had called them back today. Upon arriving, she was stunned by the grandeur of the estate and villa; she had never seen such magnificent villas before.
She had been quite nervous initially, but seeing Jiang Nuan suddenly eased her anxiety.
Mu Yun Xiao looked at Jiang Nuan and then thought of the Old Master's call. He asked, "Miss Jiang, did my father call you to come over?"
Jiang Nuan nodded slightly. "Yes."
Mu Yun Xiao realized what the Old Master intended. "Let's go inside first." His expression soured slightly; the Old Master was doing this intentionally to provoke him.
Jiang Nuan: "Okay!"
They proceeded in silence. Upon reaching the courtyard where Old Master Mu resided, the Old Master was already waiting at the door.
Seeing Jiang Nuan, the Old Master looked at her with a beaming smile. "Nuan Nuan, you must be tired from walking. Come in quickly and sit down to rest."
The Old Master was wearing a suit and looked very energetic, his eyes full of kindness.
Suddenly, he saw Mu Yun Xiao and Yun Tong behind Jiang Nuan, and his expression changed instantly.
Mu Yun Xiao smiled and introduced, "Dad, this is Yun Tong."
"Hmph!" The Old Master snorted coldly and turned to leave, not sparing Yun Tong a glance.
Yun Tong looked at Mu Yun Xiao with concern. She knew the Old Master disliked her. She wasn't from a good background, and in the Old Master's eyes, she was just a vixen who seduced men.
Mu Yun Xiao gently comforted her, "Tong Tong, don't be nervous. Everything will be fine. My father has this kind of temper."
Yun Tong smiled. Her sweet appearance was what mesmerized Mu Yun Xiao the most.
"Having you here puts me at ease." She hadn't intended to come along, but Mu Yun Xiao wanted the Mu family to meet her. After some thought, she figured they would meet eventually, so she grit her teeth and accompanied him.
Tan Xue had gone to prison. Mu Yun Xiao had submitted evidence of Tan Xue's infidelity and applied for a divorce. A few days later, they obtained their marriage certificate, and they were now legally husband and wife.
Upon entering the hall, a servant served breakfast.
At the several-meter-long dining table, Jiang Nuan watched Yun Tong and Mu Yun Xiao enter before sitting down with them.
The Old Master looked curiously at the box Jiang Nuan had brought. "Nuan Nuan, what did you bring for Grandpa?"
Jiang Nuan smiled. "Grandpa, these are mooncakes I made for you. They're very suitable for the elderly to eat."
"Is that so?" The Old Master was very pleased to hear that.
He dared not eat too many mooncakes from the market at his age; they were difficult to digest afterward.
"Nuan Nuan, you're so thoughtful," the Old Master said, very fond of Jiang Nuan. Every word and action revealed his affection for her.
Yun Tong, hearing about the fifteenth of August, realized her oversight. She hadn't prepared any gifts for the Old Master. She hadn't expected to come here with Mu Yun Xiao.
She whispered, "Xiao Ge, I didn't expect to come back here. It was too sudden, and I didn't prepare any gifts. What should I do?"
Mu Yun Xiao found Jiang Nuan to be quite cunning; small favors and gifts were the easiest ways to win people over.
And his father was most susceptible to such tactics.
Mu Yun Xiao smiled and said, "It's okay, Tong Tong. My father doesn't care about these things; he lacks nothing."
Jiang Nuan could also hear their conversation. She felt a little embarrassed; she hadn't expected to encounter Yun Tong here.
"Nuan Nuan, Little Jiu told me you really like dumplings. Grandpa specifically bought you two baskets of dumplings from a state banquet chef for you to eat."
Jiang Nuan pursed her lips and smiled. The Old Master's intentions were too obvious, and it was awkward for her to refuse his kindness. It would have been fine if she didn't know Yun Tong, but Yun Tong was her friend's sister.
"Grandpa, please give them to Sister Yun Tong. She's pregnant now, and eating dumplings is also good for her."
Yun Xia had already told her that Yun Tong and Mu Yun Xiao had obtained their marriage certificate.
