At this moment, Chi Yifeng had no choice but to suspend his plans to personally send Gu Qingyou to the "refuge" and face Mu Xiao himself.
"After not getting Chi Yifeng's answer, Mu Xiao heavily knocked the walking stick in his hand, as if it was the scepter representing the highest position. If you insist on becoming enemies with the Jiang Clan, covet someone else's wife and bring shame to the Mu??s Family, I will follow the rules of the Mu??s Family and eliminate you from your position as the leader of the Mu??s Family."
Chi Yifeng had never yearned for this position of the person leading Mu??s Family before, so he could just turn around and leave right now. To him, being a lawyer was the real occupation, but at the moment, he knew that Jiang Jun was already on her way to New York City. If he did not quickly transfer Gu Qingyou to the "refuge" in Mu??s Family, he would not be able to deal with Jiang Jun who came to take her place in the future.
"Grandfather, I don't have any ill intentions towards Gu Qingyou, nor do I covet him?? She was my playmate when I was a child, and I have always regarded her as my most important friend. Now that she is so unhappy, I hope to get her out of the fire." Chi Yifeng was very clear that he absolutely could not reveal her love for Qingyou. Otherwise, his Second Grandfather would only oppose him even more.
Mu Xiao narrowed his wrinkled eyes. Even though his pupils were already brown from burning oil, they still brimmed with dignity and seriousness. We ca ot afford to offend Jiang??s Group, and right now, Pfister Group has been suppressed to the point where we ca ot turn back from the shock. This is the best example."
"But in this world, if you don't even help your friends, what's the point in being a person without moral integrity?" Chi Yifeng said.
"Ordinary people might care about the moral character of their thoughts, but the leader of Mu's Group does not need such a noble quality. What Mu??s Family needs is a leader who can protect the harmony of the family and the interests of the family." Mu Xiao didn't listen to Chi Yifeng's reasoning at all.
Chi Yifeng decided to give in and said slowly, "Grandfather, when I was young, in the orphanage, no one liked me. Only Gu Qingyou treated me as a friend?? When my food was taken away by other children, she would take half of it from me. When I was sick, she would stay by my side and take care of me?? I could say that if she hadn't warmed me up when I was a child, I wouldn't be who I am today. I might have become an autistic person."
Mu Xiao, however, still only shook his head. His stern and young face did not have the slightest of changes. I can thank her and let her set conditions for the Mu Family, but I do not wish for my Mu??s Family to be harmed in its name and interests."
Chi Yifeng was upset, "Grandfather??"
"I will sit here and wait for the arrival of the Boss Jiang. During this period of time, I will not allow anyone to bring the Mrs Jiang out of here, and if you insist on disobeying my orders, then let this old bones of mine lie here today." Mu Xiao didn't give Chi Yifeng any room to discuss and even Mu Xiao had always been lenient and doting on him.
Chi Yifeng could not help but ask, "Then grandfather can tell me, how did Jiang Jun convince you to come to my place?"
Mu Xiao closed his eyes, but answered, "Boss Jiang only said one thing?? if you take his wife away, he will destroy his Mu's Group at all costs."
"Could it be that we are afraid of him?" Chi Yifeng clenched his fists tightly and said angrily.
Mu Xiao replied, "Fifty years ago, I might not have been afraid, but now?? The Mu's Group is already in a precarious position, and this is also the reason why I have always wanted to bring you back to be in charge of the Mu's. I hope that you can inject fresh blood into the Mu's, save the Mu's, and let it return to the prosperous state it was fifty years ago.
"Do I have to be like Mu Ying, who can't decide the final marriage on her own?" Chi Yifeng's face was ashen as he asked coldly.
Mu Xiao calmly replied, "Yes, your wife will only help the Mu??s Family to flourish, and now I have already found a suitable opponent for you, all you have to do is wait for the time of the wedding."
"I will now resign as the leader of Mu??s Family." Throwing those words down, Chi Yifeng turned around and prepared to bring Gu Qingyou into his room to leave.
Even if Jiang Jun found him, he would do her best to protect the person he cared about the most in this world.
"Regardless of whether you fire him or not, you ca ot bring the Mrs Jiang with you right now." Mu Xiao said calmly.
Chi Yifeng suddenly regained his senses, and stared at his grandfather's blood brother with a pair of flaming eyes. Grandfather, you want to obstruct me? "
"I will obstruct anyone that would harm the interests and reputation of the Mu??s Family. This is also the reason why I am respected by the entire Mu??s Family." Mu Xiao said.
Chi Yifeng clenched his fists tightly once again. Unfortunately, he was unable to change the reality in front of his eyes.
After leaving the Mu??s Family, he was only a successful lawyer. He was completely unable to contend against the Mu Family, let alone Jiang Jun.
Chi Yifeng closed his eyes painfully as he was unable to protect the woman he loved. Finally, he walked into the room with heavy steps.
Gu Qingyou was still lying on the bed as if she was asleep when Guan Yumo ordered someone to deliver the medicine to her. The doctor said that she should be waking up soon.
Chi Yifeng sat on the side of the bed, staring at Gu Qingyou's face, which appeared especially weak while she was sleeping, without blinking.
In these past few days in New York, he thought that she was living a good life. Unexpectedly, before she had finished, she had chosen to leave Jiang Jun??
If she hadn't been injured by Jiang Jun, and if not for the fact that she must have been deeply injured, she wouldn't have done such a thing??
Therefore, when Guan Yumo told him that she had been bullied by Jiang Jun, he regretted her decision to give up??
Unfortunately, he was already in a passive position and was completely unable to help her. But he swore that as long as she was not willing to leave with Jiang Jun, it would be as easy as risking his life for her.
At that moment, the beautiful person's thick, long eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she was about to wake up.
Joy grew in Chi Yifeng's heart as he promptly held Gu Qingyou's hand and called out softly, "Clear and quiet, clear and quiet??"
Under Chi Yifeng's call, Gu Qingyou finally woke up slowly from her unconsciousness, but her voice was still weak, "Lawyer Chi?"
Chi Yifeng clenched Gu Qingyou's hand tightly, his voice hoarse with joy."You're finally awake."
Gu Qingyou looked around and found that she was not in her room on the island. She asked in astonishment, "Where are we? Why am I here? "
Chi Yifeng seemed to be afraid that his voice would scare Gu Qingyou, so he replied softly, "This is my apartment in New York, you are in New York now."
