Time flew and in the blink of an eye, it was Sunday.
The Mu Family had long been in the market, and since Old Man Mu's birthday, all of the Wealthy Class families had given him face.
Mu Shaohua and Su Yanli stood at the entrance to welcome the esteemed guests. They wanted to see what kind of presents these people brought them with them, and maybe, they could even cooperate with these tycoons.
Mu Lee looked at the passing cars in front of him. Most of the people who came here were trying to curry favor with his company, hoping that his company could receive the protection of the Mu Family. Gu Tingchen turned to look at Mu Lee who was staring at them, and revealed a smile: "When you saw all these people, what were you thinking in your heart?"
"Flattery."
"The way of the world is like this. Everyone admires strength." These past few years, Gu Tingchen had not received this kind of ridicule and ridicule often, especially when he fell from the position of CEO to this state, it was likely that he had long seen through the chill in the world.
"I'm afraid this banquet will not be that simple. Prepare yourself." Since he was already here, he shouldn't be afraid of trouble.
Mu Lee was dressed in a gorgeous evening gown as she pushed the suited Gu Tingchen into the Mu Family. When Mu Shaohua and Su Yanli saw Gu Tingchen and Mu Lee, Su Yanli, who was originally happy, immediately revealed a look of contempt. Mu Lee, looking at your appearance, you must have rented this gown as well, right? "Then you better be careful, otherwise you won't be able to escape if you get dirty."
Mu Lee smiled, and held Gu Tingchen's hand: "Aunt, did you forget? I have already married Gu Tingchen, and am the Young Mistress of the Gu family. Could it be that in my aunt's eyes, the Young Mistress of the Gu family can't even wear a formal dress? You don't even put the Gu family in your eyes at all? "
"Mu Lee, you have guts. Do you know what day it is today? Let me tell you, if you screw up this banquet today, I won't let you off! I won't let your mother go either! Su Yanli threatened again.
This woman actually dared to come up and say these kinds of words to her. It could be seen that this woman was truly ambitious and wanted to do something.
"Oh, aunt, do you think you can threaten me with my mother now? By the way, I forgot to tell you that my mother has been transferred. I won't tell you where to go. I don't need you to pay for my mother's medical expenses anymore, so don't think about threatening me with my mother anymore."
The reason he didn't let Su Yanli provoke Mu Lee, was because he was afraid that Mu Lee would still be useful in the future.
He didn't expect that Mu Lee would directly transfer her mother to another hospital. If she didn't have her mother as a threat, then there would be many things that she wouldn't be able to take care of in the future.
"Xiao Li, your mother transferred to another academy. Why didn't you tell your uncle? The First People's Hospital is the best hospital in the center of Haicheng, if you transfer it, it might not be good for your mother's health."
However, Gu Tingchen only narrowed his eyes and laughed."Mr. Mu is really loyal and loyal. It's just that I'm a bit curious, why didn't Mister Mu treat my mother-in-law well before? On the contrary, I heard that they were only so concerned about it when it was transferred to another academy."
"You kid, you're just joking. Mu Lee's father is my big brother, I am duty-bound to take care of my wife."You may not know, but before this, I had been paying for my sister-in-law's medical expenses. You can't say that I didn't give my all."
A sliver of evasion appeared in Mu Shaohua's eyes, he knew that it would be inappropriate to speak of this kind of thing.
Gu Tingchen said with a smile that was not a smile, "Thank you for your consideration, Mr. Mu. Mu Lee's mother is my mother, so it's only right for me to be filial and obedient as a son-in-law, am I right? "
Gu Tingchen still had a smile on his face. Oh, why is the main entrance so lively already? Elder Mu is indeed Elder Mu."
Chu Zheng and Ling Xiao saw that there was something wrong with the situation, and immediately said. Chu Zheng: "Uncle, Aunt, I'm here to congratulate you on your birthday."
"The two of you are quite considerate. Go in and take a good rest." The Chu and Ling Families were one of the top families within the Haicheng, so their attitudes were cordial.
"Hey, uncle, you're wrong, we saw that it was bustling over here from far away and wanted to rush over to take a look, who would have thought that it was the two of you making things difficult for Gu Tingchen and Gu Tingchen."
"How can you say it's difficult? Mu Lee is my niece, how could I treat her badly? As an uncle, I naturally have to do my best for my niece."
"I wonder if uncle can let your niece and son-in-law in?" Gu Tingchen said. He could care less about Mu Shaohua's face, but he could not care less about Mu Lee's.
"That's only natural. You're all family, so there's no need to be polite. Just go inside and take your seats." Even if Su Yanli was unwilling, since Mu Shaohua had spoken, she could only give up.
It was too easy for her.
Ling Xiao and Chu Xiao saw that there wasn't much of a show going on, so they walked in. Although Mu Lee was Mu Yu's granddaughter, she knew that she was not someone to be doted on.
Mu Lee knew that she only owed him an opportunity, as long as there was a chance to prove how strong she was, naturally no one would look down on her again.
Gu Tingchen looked at Mu Lee and smiled, "Are you still thinking about what happened today? "Don't worry, there won't be any problems."
"That's right, sister-in-law. There's nothing he can't do. You don't have to worry so much."
"Shut up, you're everywhere. You have to interrupt the couple's business."
After Chu Zheng finished speaking, he was scolded by Ling Xiao, who looked at Mu Lee with an apologetic look on her face, "Sorry, sister-in-law, he's like this. I forgot to give him medicine again today, so don't bother with him. I'll give them a call to the mental hospital with the best Haicheng.
Mu Lee smiled. Others might treat Gu Tingchen with flattery or despise him, but they were definitely not as sincere as these two.
Just as she finished speaking, a man and a woman dressed in luxurious clothing walked in. The dazzling light and the proud figure were not Mu Yan and Gu Tingye, who else could it be?
Mu Lee and Gu Tingchen looked at the two of them. It had to be said that they were extremely compatible with each other, and if they stood there together, they would move closer to the two of them.
"Why do I feel like an old fox bringing over a pheasant?" Chu Zheng's words made Mu Lee burst out laughing: "I didn't expect you to be so humorous."
"Sister-in-law, we must get to know each other more in the future. I also really like your personality. When the time comes, we must have a long conversation through the night." As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Tingchen coughed, also reminding Chu Mu Lee that she was already married, and that it would be better to not talk about things throughout the night.
Mu Yan was dressed in a gorgeous black dress and her beautiful makeup made her look like a queen in this banquet, as if she was the female lead of this banquet.
After that, the two of them walked in front of Mu Yu and presented a gift to him."Grandfather selected this gift together with Gu Tingye.
Mu Yu opened the gift but did not expect it to be an ancient painting from a few hundred years ago. Mu Yu opened his eyes wide: "Yan'er, where did you find this painting?"
"I once knew an old master who painted and accidentally saw this painting. To think that it would be an actual painting. When I thought that your birthday was coming up, I bought it and sent it to you. I hope you like it."
Mu Yan had a big smile on her face, her complacency could be seen from her words.
Mu Yu nodded his head in satisfaction: "You are very filial, not bad, not bad, these few years your parents have taught you well, they have their own businesses. Grandfather also hopes that you will be fine."
Mu Lee frowned, she then lowered her head and looked at the painting in her hand: Who exactly is the real one?
Gu Tingchen saw Mu Lee mumbling something, and furrowed her brows."What's going on?"
"Just now, I saw the painting Mu Yan gifted grandfather. It was exactly the same as my painting ... One of us must be a fake." Mu Lee could not help but frown, how could there be such a coincidence? Or could it be that Mu Yan had come prepared?
"Of course it's not a coincidence. If Mu Yan said that what she said was true, then it would be digging her own grave. It just so happened that three years ago I met the invisible rich man and turned the painting into my own collection at a high price. But during this period, I have never shown it to anyone, so how could it end up in Mu Yan's hands? "
Gu Tingchen analyzed it bit by bit. If what Mu Yan had said was true, then the painting in Gu Tingchen's studio would have been swapped out.
