A Big Shot's Woman Is Wild and Fierce-Chapter 809 - 810:

Chapter 810: 809

Yuan Tao’s face looked rather grim as he sighed helplessly with his head bowed, “That unfilial son of mine has never sincerely wanted to return to the Yuan Family since he came back. Defying me was one thing, but now he’s even targeting Yuan Corporation. I’m so angry I could flay him myself.”

As Yuan Tao spoke, there was a gritting of teeth in his tone. He looked up at Old Master Jiang. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

“Old Master Jiang, as long as you are willing to help me, I, Yuan Tao, am willing to be at your beck and call. Rest assured, I will definitely take down that boy. Once Mu Chengxi no longer controls the Mu family, even Mu Chengxu can be dealt with together!”

Listening to Yuan Tao’s words, the others merely smiled faintly, as if they had already foreseen the future fate of those people.

“We’ll discuss this matter properly after the banquet is over. A wayward son needs to be sternly dealt with; otherwise, he won’t even know who his real father is!”

Standing outside the door, Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin exchanged glances as they listened to the discussion inside. Mu Chengxi smiled lightly, “It seems we haven’t come at the right time, huh?”

“How is it not the right time? Standing at the entrance is perfect for clearly seeing who those people opposing us are, isn’t it?”

Saying this, Wen Xin raised her hand and gently knocked on the door of the lounge. Soon, Housekeeper Jiang opened the door from inside.

When Housekeeper Jiang saw Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi, he involuntarily hesitated for a moment, seemingly completely surprised by their appearance there.

“Master Mu, Miss Wen.”

Mu Chengxi, calm and composed, looked at the housekeeper with a thin smile on his face, his distinguished demeanor fully evident at that moment.

“Wen Xin and I specifically came to wish Old Master Jiang a happy birthday. My grandmother went out and is not in Beijing, so she couldn’t come in person. She specifically instructed me to personally deliver the gift to Old Master Jiang. I wonder if it’s convenient for Old Master Jiang to let us in?”

Although Mu Chengxi’s tone was mild, it clearly exerted a strong pressure on Housekeeper Jiang.

“I think I heard Chengxi’s voice? Housekeeper, what are you doing standing at the door? Why don’t you invite the guests in?”

Sitting in the lounge, Old Master Jiang showed a gentle smile on his face and kindly called out towards the door.

Upon receiving the command from Old Master Jiang, the housekeeper immediately stepped aside and respectfully invited Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi in.

As Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi walked into the lounge, they ignored everyone else present and went straight to Old Master Jiang.

“Old Master Jiang, when the Mu family received your invitation, my grandmother had already made plans to go out with friends and wasn’t at home.”

“However, she specifically instructed me to prepare a gift for you. This is just a small token of my affection, and I hope you will accept it with a smile.”

Mu Chengxi stood in front of Old Master Jiang with a cool demeanor, his tone devoid of any respect, almost as if he were merely going through the motions, using his actions to tell Old Master Jiang that his presence there was already giving enough respect.

Without waiting for Old Master Jiang to speak, Wen Xin also placed a square box wrapped in brocade in front of Old Master Jiang, though her attitude was much softer and not as cold as Mu Chengxi’s.

“This is the birthday gift I prepared for Old Master Jiang. I hope Old Master Jiang will like it.”

Wen Xin spoke softly, causing Old Master Jiang to unconsciously look up at her. He had not expected Wen Xin to bring him a gift since their previous encounters had not been pleasant.

He thought that by then, the two women had already formed a grudge between themselves.

Looking at the gift in front of him, Old Master Jiang knew immediately that these two people had made a significant gesture. His first reaction was that they probably knew about his dealings with the Independent State and had come to seek reconciliation.

“You both are thoughtful. Please, have a seat. Housekeeper, bring some tea for Miss Wen and Mu Chengxi.”

Old Master Jiang’s face, which had just been solemn, now warmly invited Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi to sit down.

At that moment, he resembled a kind, affectionate elder, ready to make small talk with Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi.

“Before you came, I was just discussing how Mu Chengxi, this young man, is promising. Being so young and already the head of the Mu family, your grandfather had good judgment in knowing what kind of young people are right.”

After Old Master Jiang praised Mu Chengxi, those present all echoed the sentiment, each displaying a flattering demeanor.

Seeing the disgusting demeanor of these people, Mu Chengxi scoffed disdainfully and spoke with a cold and distant tone, “The things I heard before I entered the door were not these. I don’t know why, but the shift in tone was so rapid, it was somewhat unexpected.”

Mu Chengxi’s words made everyone’s expression stiffen unnaturally for a moment, but fortunately, Mu Chengxi did not say much more, merely smiling faintly.

The atmosphere in the lounge had quieted down because of this interlude, so quiet that one could almost hear each other’s breathing.

Even Old Master Jiang, sitting in the main seat, didn’t know what to say to alleviate the awkwardness at the moment.

Wen Xin sat on the sofa, shifting her position, her fingers gently tapping on the armrest of the chair, producing a rhythmic sound that was somewhat irritating.

“Master, shall we see how the preparations by the young lady are going? It’s about time, shall we start the banquet?”

Housekeeper Jiang casually glanced at his watch, reminding Old Master Jiang that it was time to start the banquet.

“Indeed, it’s about time. I’ll go and see how Linyan’s preparations are coming along. You all make yourselves comfortable,” he said.

After speaking, Old Master Jiang quickly left the lounge with the help of the housekeeper, his eagerness to leave appearing somewhat flustered.

With Old Master Jiang’s departure, others also stood up, finding various excuses to leave the meeting room.

Just as Yuan Tao was about to leave, Mu Chengxi suddenly spoke up, “President Yuan, some matters still need to be carefully considered. Don’t end up with all your efforts wasted… ”

Mu Chengxi’s tone carried a warning flavor, frightening Yuan Tao who sharply turned to look at him, believing that Mu Chengxi might take some action.

“What… what do you want to do?”

Yuan Tao looked at Mu Chengxi nervously. Although he had never dealt with Mu Chengxi before, he knew that someone who could hold the position of family head of the Mu family was no simple character.

Moreover, even though the Mu family was currently in chaos internally, as long as he remained the head of the Mu family, Yuan Tao wasn’t his rival.

After all, for the powerful Mu family to crush the Yuan family would be an easy task.

“What I want to do depends on what you decide to do. You can choose to be in-laws with the Mu family or enemies… I won’t interfere with your family affairs, but my sister will not be mistreated.”
