“That’s right. The auction has already removed the shelves exclusive to the divine doctor. I heard that the divine doctor might have met with an accident.
Perhaps he has already passed away!”
The assistant’s voice was soft. She had got the information from reliable people but she equally hoped it was not true.
“Focus on investigating this matter. It’s best if you can contact the divine doctor. If you can’t, buy some of those special medicines from the divine doctor.”
When Mu Chengxu returned home, she heard about the old madam’s sudden coma half a year ago. When she thought about how she almost did not get to see his beloved grandmother, she could not control her emotions.
Hence, her first reaction was to think of the divine doctor and the pills that he often sold at auctions. She did not expect that the divine doctor would disappear before she could buy them. This was simply too unfortunate.
While the two of them were discussing the matter, a slender figure walked in from outside the courtyard unhurriedly and Chengxu called, ” Seventh Young Master.”
Mu Chengxu’s beautiful eyes lit up when she saw Chengxi. She stood where she was and waited for him to walk over.
“Sister!” Mu Chengxi walked up to Mu Chengxu. His voice was still as cold as ever.
“It’s not easy. We thought you weren’t coming back again! If you don’t come back soon, I’m afraid that Uncle will nag at Grandma’s ear for another year.”
Mu Chengxi did not mind. He was a little lazy and looked very undisciplined. “Let him say whatever he wants. He, Second Uncle, and Aunt can only stir up trouble. They really don’t have any other abilities.”
Mu Chengxu suddenly thought of something and looked behind Mu Chengxi. “Why are you alone?” When I came back, I was surrounded by my family. They said you already have a girlfriend, but I don’t have a boyfriend. They told me to learn from you. Why didn’t you bring her today?”
“She’s been in a bad mood recently. The Mu family has a lot of mouths. It’s inevitable that some blind people will provoke her. I can’t bear to see her suffer here.”
Mu Chengxi thought of the chaotic situation in the Mu family and those blind people. His dark eyes narrowed slightly. If they provoked him, he wouldn’t mind, but if they provoked Wen Xin, he would not go easy on them
Chengxu became even more interested when she saw how Chengxi was so biased towards his young lady. She lifted her chin at Mu Chengxi. “When are you going to bring me to meet her?”
“She’ll be coming over to give Grandma a checkup soon. It’s an opportunity to meet her.”
Mu Chengxi placed his hands in his pockets and straightened his body slightly. His eyes, which were still a little dangerous just now, turned soft at that moment, and there was a lazy smile on his face.
“Your little girlfriend is a doctor? Why didn’t Grandma tell me? I was worried that you would find someone too young and unreliable. Now it seems that there shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
Mu Chengxu had heard a lot of rumors about Mu Chengxi’s little girlfriend today, especially after she verified it with her grandmother. His grandmother said that the girl was extremely beautiful, and had immediately attracted Mu Chengxi. She did not expect that the girl knew medicine.
“She’s more reliable than you.”
Mu Chengxi glanced at the people walking out of the old lady’s room. They were probably preparing to go to the banquet hall. Chengxi straightened up and walked to the old lady’s room. When he passed by the elders, he only greeted them lightly and did not say anything.
Mu Chengxu followed him into Old Madam Mu’s room. Old Madam Mu was very happy to see Mu Chengxi. She looked behind Chengxi and only saw Mu Chengxu, not the person she wanted to see.
“Chengxi, Grandma prepared two big red packets for you and your little girlfriend. Why didn’t you bring her today?”
Mu Chengxi’s eldest uncle’s elder brother was the first to speak up. He could not stand the family’s pampering of Mu Chengxi since he was young, but Mu Chengxi always acted like he did not care.
“It’s okay if she doesn’t come. Just let Chengxi bring the things for the girl. After all, the girl’s background isn’t that good, coming from a poor town. She might have seen some things, but taking her out to meet people might be embarrassing.”
“Chengxi, don’t take Second Sister-in-law’s words to heart. We’re just concerned about you. You, the seventh young master of the Mu family, have a prestigious status. How can you take a girl from a poor town too seriously? Listen to Sister-in-law’s advice; she has experience and knows that such relationships don’t last long.”
Mu Chengxi sat on a stool beside the old lady. He picked up a packet of cigarettes that someone had thrown on the table and took one out. He picked up a lighter, lit it with a ding, and lit his cigarette.
Mu Chengxi held the cigarette in his mouth and took a puff in a relaxed and arrogant manner. His eyebrows were slightly raised. Those who were familiar with him would know that he was very angry when he looked like that.
Mu Chengxi blew out a smoke ring and took out his phone in front of everyone. He dialed a number and the call went through very quickly.
“Young Marshal Mu…”
“Cancel all of the Mu Group’s investments in the Liu and Qin families and see what methods we can use to send them to poor villages. Be careful, they must be even poorer than Ancient Market Town.”
The person on the other end of the phone did not know why Mu Chengxi would ask him to do this, but he would obey his orders. Whatever Mu Chengxi asked him to do, he would definitely complete it one hundred percent.
After hearing Mu Chengxi’s words, the two women looked at each other and laughed disdainfully. “Seventh Brother is really good at joking. The Mu family’s business isn’t decided by Seventh Brother. If Grandma doesn’t say anything, who would dare to do such a thing?”
Qin Qiong was not afraid of Mu Chengxi. She had been married to the Mu family for three years and had never seen Mu Chengxi do anything serious.
She thought that the rumors about how powerful the Mu family’s crown prince was were just hearsay. In reality, everyone was just giving face to the old madam. They were worried that if they belittled Mu Chengxi, it would be disrespecting the old madam. In her eyes, an ignorant and incompetent idiot was useless even if the old madam deeply loved him.
This was the best proof. Mu Chengxi was calm and composed as he sat on the chair leisurely. He was fiddling with his phone and did not say a word.
“Seventh Brother, you don’t have to pretend to be a big shot before me.
Everyone knows who’s better.”
Old Madam Mu couldn’t stand it anymore. She slammed the table beside her angrily. She looked at Mu Zhan, who was sitting in a corner watching the show, and spoke in a very serious tone, “Enough.. Mu Zhan, can’t you rein in your troublesome wife? “
