Chapter 408 Miss Republic of China, She is Charming 32
Chapter 408 The lady of the Republic of China is so charming and charming (32)
Mucheng went directly to Mu Mansion after get off work.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the living room, he saw his parents sitting on the sofa with solemn expressions.
Mrs. Mu saw him and went up to him: "You're back? I heard that your department is dealing with another major case recently. Are you very busy?"
Mucheng smiled lightly: "It's not bad."
Seeing Mrs. Mu's hesitant expression, Mu Cheng said directly: "Mom, if you have anything to do, just ask."
Mrs. Mu and her husband looked at each other, and then spoke carefully: "Acheng, have you seen everything in the newspaper? Isn't that true?"
Mucheng didn't say anything, and Mrs. Mu breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Let me just say, those reporters are just idle every day, and they even dare to arrange your scandal..."
"Mom." Mucheng interrupted her, "They didn't write anything indiscriminately. Those... are all true. I am serious about Miss Bai. I am happy with her."
Mrs. Mu was obviously frightened and could not recover for a long time: "You, what did you say? How is this possible? Bai Wu has already made an engagement with Beichen. You..."
Mucheng's eyes were extremely serious: "But the engagement was originally mine, wasn't it?"
Mrs. Mu wanted to say something, but was stopped by Mu Cheng: "Mom, I know what you mean, and I have a sense of discretion. Is Mu Beichen up there? I'll go find him."
Mrs. Mu obviously didn't want him to go up, so she hurriedly stopped him.
She knew Mu Beichen's temperament.
If Mucheng goes up now, nothing good will happen.
She couldn't just watch these two people fight.
"Acheng, does it have to be Miss Bai?"
Mucheng lowered his eyes: "She has to do it. Mom, I have given in for this family for a long time, and I don't want to give in anymore this time."
Mr. Mu also sighed and gave Mrs. Mu a wink: "The children are old, let them go. I am still in this family, so they don't dare to make trouble."
Mrs. Mu then hesitantly let go of her hand.
Mucheng went straight to the second floor.
Mu Beichen's study door was unlocked, as if waiting for him.
Mucheng calmly opened the door and walked in.
Mu Beichen was standing in front of the window smoking. His feet were covered with fallen cigarette butts, and the whole room was filled with the pungent smell of tobacco.
His eyes were scarlet and he stared hard at Mucheng who walked in: "Do you insist on going against me?"
He had already planned to let him go.
Why has it come to this point?
Mucheng looked indifferent and looked up at him: "I'm not against you, it's just that you have always regarded me as your enemy."
Mu Beichen dropped the cigarette in his hand, crushed it hard on the sole of his foot twice, and said with a cold voice, "When did it start? When did you become interested in her?"
Mucheng smiled: "Maybe it was on the boat, or maybe earlier. Maybe we were lovers in our previous life."
This sentence undoubtedly stepped on Mu Beichen's pain point. He stepped forward and grabbed Mu Cheng's collar, with a sinister look on his face: "I tell you, there was no way in your last life, and there is no way in this life, that she would do the same thing as in her last life.
It’s the same decision.”
Mucheng frowned displeased.
It's not because of Mu Beichen's rude behavior.
It's the past life that he keeps claiming.
His determined look made Mucheng suddenly think that there was such a thing as past and present lives.
Mu Cheng broke off Mu Beichen's hand and straightened his collar with a cold face: "Before that, Governor Mu, should you explain the matter of arms?"
He was originally suspicious of Mu Beichen.
But he had been quiet recently, which dispelled his suspicions.
But Huang Xing's confession pointed to Mu Beichen.
Mucheng looked serious: "Did you secretly finance Huang Xing's purchase of arms?"
Mu Beichen sneered: "Do you have any evidence?"
"Just because I don't have it now doesn't mean I won't have it in the future. I'm just here to warn you. You'd better stop now. Even if your parents want to protect you, I won't just watch you let Yancheng get involved in the war."
Mu Beichen laughed even harder: "Protect me? Aren't your parents always more protective of you? In their eyes, you are the real young master of the Mu family, and I am just a ruthless military governor.
"
…
In the end, Mu Beichen did not take action against Mu Cheng, but walked out of Mu's house with a chill all over his body.
Adjutant Qin in the cab saw him getting into the car with a cold face, and asked carefully: "Governor, where are we going?"
"Go back to the military aircraft!" Mu Beichen said coldly.
The reason why he didn't do anything to Mu Cheng was because he was in Mu Mansion.
But that doesn't mean he will let him go.
Some accounts need to be settled.
If Xiao misses his people, he must pay the price.
While the car was waiting at the traffic light, Mu Beichen rolled down the window.
The humid air from the recent rain made him feel calmer.
But the next second, a red shadow on the street caught his attention.
Mu Beichen was a little far away and couldn't see the person's face clearly, but he could clearly see the cheongsam she was wearing.
That was specially given to Bai Wu by him.
How could it be worn on another woman?
"Go check that woman's information, right away." Mu Beichen said solemnly.
Adjutant Qin followed his line of sight and looked over: "Yes, Governor."
Half an hour later, Adjutant Qin came back.
"Governor, I found a Western restaurant. According to the people inside, the person wearing a poppy cheongsam was Tang Ranxin. She had a dispute with Miss Bai and accidentally soiled her clothes. She also asked Miss Bai for compensation.
That cheongsam should be what she wants to come."
Mu Beichen sneered: "Huh, asking for it? I'm afraid that she has that life but doesn't have that life."
…
It was already late at night when Mucheng returned to the mansion.
He should have been tired, but his body and mind were as happy as ever.
It was like the stone that had been weighing on my heart was cleared, the fog cleared, and everything became clear.
When he reached the fourth floor, Mucheng found a figure huddled in the corner. He recognized it as Bai Wu almost at a glance.
With more warmth in his eyes, Mucheng walked over and asked, "Why are you squatting here?"
Hearing his voice, Bai Wu raised her head: "Mucheng..."
Only then did Mucheng realize that her eyes were red, as if she had cried.
"What's wrong?"
Bai Wu stood up, biting her lower lip, looking a little uneasy.
Mucheng was a little worried: "What can't you tell me? Can't you trust me?"
"No." Bai Wu shook her head.
Mucheng said softly: "Is that because of the newspaper?"
Bai Wu didn't speak. After a moment, she raised her head again: "Mucheng, let's not meet again in the future. I will move out of here tomorrow."
Mucheng was stunned, and it took him a while to realize: "Why?"
He immediately felt that something had happened.
In other words, Bai Wu was threatened.
Otherwise, how could she say such a thing?
However, Bai Wu shook her head: "There is no reason, Mucheng, we...just pretend we have never known each other."
