Chapter 1265 - Family Rivalry (3)
“What should we do now?! Must we really let him marry that woman? What an embarrassing matter!”
“The Mu family has always been an advocate of well-matched marriage; not only is that woman incompatible, she’s indecent, too! Ha ha! Is she even worthy?!”
…
Mu Shumin snorted angrily at her brother. “Second brother, what do you think of it? Are you really going to just stand by and watch him fool around?”
“What can I do? We’ve tried speaking and stopping him; what’s the use if he doesn’t listen?!”
“I do admit that he has contributed a lot to the Mu Group throughout the years since he joined the company, but it doesn’t mean that he can do whatever he wants just because of his achievements!”
Mu Linfeng muttered to himself irresolutely. “His contributions are incalculable and I’m very satisfied with him! He deserves to own the title of family head! The only thing I’m unhappy with is his stubbornness; he’s just like his father!”
“I always thought that he’s a cold person who knows what he’s doing. I didn’t think that his commitment to a relationship will make him lose his direction and become befuddled! It appears that that woman isn’t a simple character with her capability of leaving that lad infatuated with her. Ha ha!” he sneered.
“It’s not good for young people to be overly arrogant. He’ll ultimately suffer losses in the vanity fair!”
“Being proud in nature, he’s indeed a little too arrogant.”
His words interrupted the rest of their discussion. “His capability speaks for himself, though! Who doesn’t make a mistake in life? Who can confidently say that he or she has never made a mistake before in this life? Forget it!”
“Forget it?!” Mu Shumin got a little agitated. “Second brother, what do you mean by ‘forget it’? Are you really not going to care about this matter?!”
“Now isn’t the time! Naturally, Yun Shishi has to be rid of! I’ll deal with her sooner or later, but not now!”
“What do you mean?”
They were all baffled.
He nonchalantly replied, “Since he insists on marrying her, we can only placate him. After some time, I’ll arrange a clean background for her so that others won’t see the Mu family as a joke.”
That was all he could do.
Fury surged through Mu Shumin. She was apparently unable to accept her brother’s decision. “I don’t agree to it.”
“Shumin, listen to me!”
The woman could only swallow down her protests silently at his firm and irrefutable tone.
Mu Yancheng chimed in from the side. “Hmph. Second uncle, you’re really biased at times! In what way is second brother better than me? If you had supported me back then, I would act according to every of your orders and would not defy you at all! Look at how he talked back at you today; it’s really infuriating!”
A hint of sullen anger flashed in the middle-aged man’s face as he coldly rebuked the younger one. “Impudent! You’re in no position to criticize me! You still dare to say that?! I’ve never treated you poorly since you were young, but what did you do? You claimed that you’re not lacking to him in any way, but in fact, you’re poles apart! Yazhe is indeed much more capable than you with his outstanding ability. If you have half of his capabilities, you won’t be what you are today!”
“Hmph! Isn’t it because he’s the first wife’s son while I’m not?!” muttered his nephew aggrievedly.
Mu Shumin added, “Second brother, that’s enough; you should calm down and make a decision now!”
