89 The Older The Spicier

Luo Bing had already expected Mu Ci to say this. His lips moved slightly and he said with a faint smile, “Young Master Mu, Bei Shuo isn’t around. You don’t have to confess your love. My Little Junior Sister is innocent and grew up in a simple village. Everything she sees is beautiful and she has never been tainted by the evils of this world. When she met you, she was only three years old. How would she know about love?”

“Seventeen years. You’re already an all-powerful figure. In terms of aptitude and shrewdness, she’s probably still three years old in front of you. Young Master Mu, if you were me, would you be at ease leaving her here?”

Mu Ci was stunned and smiled bitterly. He was speechless.

Mu Chen came to a realization. So this young man was here to cause trouble. He had thought that his grand daughter-in-law’s maternal family was awful. Even her biological mother did not have any love for her. She was a child with a tough life.

Unexpectedly, her real family came, and they were not bad.

He relaxed and smiled. “I understand. Speaking of which, it’s our Mu Family’s fault!”

His attitude changed drastically. Even Luo Bing was stunned. He could no longer keep a straight face.

“Luo Bing, right? Is it okay for me to call you by your name? I hope you don’t mind me speaking freely?” Mu Chen smiled amiably.

Luo Bing said respectfully, “Old Master, you are too kind.”

That was good. Mu Chen was very satisfied with Luo Bing’s reaction.

“Luo Bing, I can tell that you value your Little Junior Sister very much. This is a blessing for our Bei Shuo. Very good! Luo Bing, you haven’t seen Bei Shuo for many years, right?” Mu Chen smiled at Luo Bing.

Luo Bing hesitated and nodded. “Yes.”

He thought for a moment and said, “It’s true that we haven’t seen each other for many years, but—”

Mu Chen waved his hand. “I understand. No matter how many years we haven’t seen each other, your relationship won’t change. It’s natural that you two are very close as you watch her grow up!”

Luo Bing nodded solemnly.

Mu Chen sighed. “Our Bei Shuo is so lucky. I wonder how many senior brothers she has?”

“Three, I am ranked second,” Luo Bing answered honestly.

Mu Chen couldn’t help but worry for his grandson. It was enough for Mu Ci if every senior brother came to ask for their sister once!

He nodded at Luo Bing. “I can totally understand how you feel when you love and care for your junior sister. Just like Mu Ci, I raised him personally. I naturally want to give him the best. I think your senior brothers are the same.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Luo Bing nodded. “Of course.” The Old Master of the Mu Family was indeed as Bei Shuo had said. He was a reasonable person.

Mu Chen sighed softly. “When Mu Ci was young, I did everything for him myself. I taught him and guided him. I was afraid that he would suffer a loss and take the wrong path. I wished I could pave a bright path for him. But when Mu Ci was 14 or 15 years old and grew up, he started to have his own thoughts. Only then did I gradually understand that my methods were wrong!”

“I can do many things for him, but I can’t experience his life for him! Life is ultimately his own. No one can replace him. Whether it’s bitter or sweet, it’s his own life. I can only be a bystander. I can cheer him on, but I can’t replace him, no matter how much I love him.”

Luo Bing sat up straight.

Mu Chen’s eyes lit up. “I like Bei Shuo from the bottom of my heart. Just like you said, she’s innocent and passionate about people. She’s a good child. I completely understand that your three senior brothers dote on her, but she has her own life. No matter how much you love and care for her, you can’t help her taste all the flavors in this world, right?”

Luo Bing was speechless.

Mu Chen smiled. “Mu Ci is a few years older than her. The two of them grew up in different environments. However, do you know that Mu Ci has been keeping Bei Shuo in his heart since he was eight years old? No other girl can enter his heart. Others might not know this, but as his grandfather, I’ve watched him all the way here. I can guarantee you with my old man’s reputation that Mu Ci is sincere to Bei Shuo!”

“Besides, Bei Shuo also likes Mu Ci. Perhaps she doesn’t know about love yet, but she’s willing to stay by Mu Ci’s side because she likes Mu Ci. She feels safe by Mu Ci’s side. She’s just entered the mortal world. Other than Mu Ci, no one else can make her feel this way. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have stayed by Mu Ci’s side, right?”

Luo Bing could not sit still.

Mu Chen struck while the iron was hot. “Luo Bing, why don’t we ask Bei Shuo’s opinion? Although she doesn’t have any social experience, she has her own ideas. We have to respect her, don’t you think so?”
