Hearing Mu Lee's threat, Mu Yan's face revealed a trace of panic.
Seeing that his own daughter was so impatient, Su Yanli was disappointed. This daughter was taught to him by herself, but she never thought that she wouldn't be able to hold even a small Mu Lee in her hands.
It was very obvious that Mu Lee wanted to stimulate Mu Yan so that she could achieve his goal. Could it be that her own daughter couldn't see through it at all?
Just as Mu Yan was about to speak, Su Yanli instantly stood up and stopped him from speaking."Mu Lee, don't forget which family's meal you have been eating these past few years. Back then your hands and feet were dirty, our Mu Family was a famous clan, the reason we chased you out was for the sake of our Mu Family's reputation."
"I believe you all know why Uncle and Auntie kicked me out. I don't want to talk about what happened that year, and I hope Aunt doesn't always keep it in her mouth."
Mu Lee did not want to repeat what happened that year. She knew clearly in her heart of hearts that she had wronged him in the past.
Hearing Mu Lee's warning, Su Yanli could not help but tremble, why did this woman's ill intent suddenly become so strong? Ever since she married Gu Tingchen, this woman had undergone earth-shattering changes.
"What is it? "Don't you want to live with me and the music?"
Su Yanli's face revealed an awkward smile, as she forcefully suppressed the impatience in her heart, "How could this be? No matter what, Mu Family is still your home, if you want to return, you can do so anytime you want."
"Since aunt has already said so, then I won't be polite in the future." As she spoke, she passed the two of them and sat on the sofa that was similar to hers.
"Mom, why did you keep her here?" Mu Yan was unhappy in her heart. Even if it was just taking in cats and dogs, it was better than this woman. Could it be that his mother didn't hear what she had said just now? This house was actually hers. It was simply a joke.
"Alright, it's getting late, you should also go back and rest. You still have to send Gu Tingchen and his wife off." Su Yanli looked at Mu Yan, telling her to pay attention to her own words.
Mu Yan glared fiercely at Mu Lee, and stepped on her high heels that were more than ten centimeters tall, and walked upstairs.
However, Mu Lee didn't care at all. She picked up the fruits on the table and continued to eat.
Gu Tingchen and Mu Yu who were playing chess outside knew that it was already late, so they stopped playing chess.
"I didn't expect that you would have such a deep understanding of chess at such a young age. It can be seen that your ability is extraordinary." Mu Yu kept praising Gu Tingchen.
"Old mister Mu is exaggerating. It's just that I like to play chess when I was young, that's why I know a little bit about it." Gu Tingchen replied to Mu Yu neither arrogant nor impatient.
Mu Yu was very satisfied: "You are so modest. Alright, it's already late, why don't you stay here today."
"No need, I'll go back immediately." He did not like staying out for the night, nor did he like interacting too much with the people from Mu Family.
"Since that's the case, then I won't stay any longer. In the future, I will let you take care of Mu Lee." Mu Yu could not help but sigh.
Mu Lee now had no real power and no proper income. Being together with Gu Tingchen could be considered to be living without worries for the rest of his life.
Gu Tingchen and Mu Yu both came into the room and discovered that only Mu Lee was sitting on the sofa by herself, watching TV. When Mu Lee saw the two people, she stood up and asked, "Grandfather, Tingchen, did you guys finish playing chess?"
"Un, are you tired? I'll get Yan Shu to come and pick us up." Gu Tingchen looked at Mu Lee with concern between her brows.
"A little." Mu Lee could not help but yawn. She had been here all day dealing with the mother and daughter pair, and was physically and mentally exhausted.
He couldn't even stand up from the wheelchair. If he could stand up, he wished that he could raise his hand and caress this woman's hair.
After about 20 minutes, Yan Shu arrived at the main entrance.
In the whole family, only Mu Yu came out to send them off, "Xiao Li ..." Just as the two were about to get on the carriage, Mu Yu called out to Mu Lee from behind.
Mu Lee's face revealed a look of astonishment: "Grandfather, is there something else?"
"Say hello to your mother the next time you go to the hospital."
"I know." Although she was not used to her grandfather's enthusiasm, it still secretly changed the relationship between the two of them.
"Be careful on your way home, grandpa will be waiting for you." With that, Mu Yu returned back to the villa.
Mu Lee could not help but freeze in place. She never thought that her grandfather would actually say such a thing to her. In these past five years, he had never cared about his mother, but today, he suddenly started to care about her mother for some reason.
Moreover, back then, his family had misunderstood him and told his grandfather to chase him out. Perhaps his grandfather had already figured out that what happened back then was not that simple.
At the dining table, Mu Lee could clearly see that there was an extra trace of guilt in her grandfather's eyes.
Mu Lee slowly lowered her head, and a burst of bitterness appeared in her nose.
