Mu Yazhe replied, âSheâs my woman and Iâm her man. Second uncle needs not meddle in our matters!â
The older man was flabbergasted with his firm and inviolable response.
He did not want anyone meddling in his private affairs!
His nephewâs words enraged him further that anger welled up in his chest. âI donât care about what you think, but this matter isnât for you to decide alone! Yazhe, this is so unlike you! Second uncle here has great expectations for you! You shouldnât give up the Mu empire just for that so-called love! I think youâre getting befuddled! Where did your wits go? What magical power does that woman have over you that you will do this thing for her sake?! Do you know what this means?! It means that our efforts all these years will go to waste and be enjoyed by someone else! I didnât push you up to be the next family head just for you to hand over the Mu Group foolishly! I can tell that that woman is a femme fatale; Iâm ordering you to make a clean break with her! Donât risk your future for a mere woman; youâll bound to regret it in the future!â
Youyouâs face turned frosty at once, but the moment he opened his mouth, his father held his shoulder.
He expressionlessly answered, âSecond uncle, donât worry; I know what Iâm doing!â
âYou know what youâre doing?â
Mu Linfeng burst into laughter.
âWhat do you intend to do? Annihilate all my hard work? Give away the Mu empire for an indecent woman? From what I see, youâre just pushing me to my death!â
âI donât dare to do so.â In a respectful tone, his nephew said, âSecond uncle, your words are overly harsh!â
The older man sneered. âHe he! Donât dare? What donât you dare to do?! I think you have the very guts! Donât you know what the consequences of your action will be?! The Mu family is the core of this countryâs economy; itâs the heart, and every branch is connected to its arteries. Even if it isnât me, the high-ranking officials of the country wonât sit back and watch! Youâve been blinded. Where did your wits go? Some relationships are dangerous to you, so you shouldnât hesitate to break such! With me around, I wonât allow you to fool around!â
Mu Yazheâs face instantly cooled.
His icy look did not escape his uncleâs eyes, though.
A flicker of irritation coursed through him.
âWhatâs with that look?â
âNothing!â
His nephew coldly stated, âSecond uncle, since when do we think alike that love is only a game?â
He used to be indifferent to relationships.
He did not believe that there would be true love in this world besides power and wealth!
Did true love really exist?
Women were nothing to him.
He was so cold that there was once a rumor saying that he had issues with his sexual performance!
Ha ha!
That was until Yun Shishiâs appearance, however.
She taught him what was true love.
She taught him how to love a person with all his heart!
She also taught him that there was unconditional love in this worldâlove that had nothing to do with power or influence!
