Chapter 126: Don’t Come to the Hall of Three Treasuries for Nothing

Wei Shisheng looked at the messages in the group and clenched her fists. She had been trying so hard to make her presence known to Mu Chengxi’s side. Did those people not feel that she was the one who should be standing by Mu Chengxi’s side? How could they do this?

Wei Shisheng clicked on Ou Shenzhi’s message and sent him a message. [You already knew that Mu Chengxi’s girlfriend wasn’t me?]

[No, I’ve never cared about this matter. I only care about whether you’re okay or not.]

Ever since Ou Shenzhi found out that Wei Shisheng liked Mu Chengxi, he had distanced himself from her. He didn’t want to see the girl he liked working hard for another man. He couldn’t accept it!

Today, he had heard about the research institute and wanted to contact Wei Shisheng. He had thought that Wei Shisheng would be there and that he was just trying to help her.

Wei Shisheng knew that Ou Shenzhi wouldn’t lie to her. She hesitated for a moment before replying, [I didn’t want to go, but if you need a companion, I can go with you!]

[Alright, I’ll be done around four. I’ll pick you up!]

Looking at Ou Shenzhi’s reply, Wei Shisheng gripped her phone tightly with a fierce look in her eyes. She had never thought that she would appear in front of Mu Chengxi again. To be with another man was a disgrace to her.

However, she could not go today. She could not admit defeat. Even if she could not get Mu Chengxi, she would not let Wen Xin have it easy.

Mu Chengxi walked into the Mu family’s old mansion alone. It was quiet and quiet, and the occasional chirping of cicadas could be heard.

The butler was a little surprised to see Mu Chengxi walking in. He immediately went up to him. “Young Master, why are you back today?”

“I’m here to see Grandma. Is Grandma on her lunch break now?” Mu Chengxi stopped in his tracks when he saw the butler approaching.

“Old Madam just woke up and was a little angry when she heard about Miss Wei. She just called Second Master and asked him to deal with this matter properly. Young Master, you didn’t come back because of this, right?”

The butler was a shrewd person. He knew that Mu Chengxi did not like to return to the capital. There must be a reason for him to return to the capital this time. It was probably because of this matter.

“That’s true, and that’s not true. I’m going to see Grandma.” Mu Chengxi heard that Diwu Qingzhou already knew about this matter, so the rest would be easier to deal with.

Mu Chengxi walked through the small courtyard, walked through the corridor, and entered the courtyard of the Fifth Clear Boat.

Diwu Qingzhou was currently sitting in the pavilion and sipping tea. He looked very relaxed.

Hearing the footsteps, Di Wu Qingzhou looked up and saw a slender and handsome figure.

“There’s no wind today. Why did our Seventh Young Master come back?” Diwu Qingzhou chuckled and teased Mu Chengxi, who had suddenly appeared.

Mu Chengxi sat down opposite Diwu Qingzhou. He took the hot tea she handed him and took a sip. “Grandma.”

“Yes, why did you come back today? With your character of not coming to the temple for no reason, there must be nothing good coming back!”

Diwu Qingzhou did not like to beat around the bush. She liked to speak frankly. She did not believe that Mu Chengxi had specially come over to drink tea with her.

“I’m here to see Grandma!” Mu Chengxi knew that he could not use those little tricks in front of the old madam, but he would still say a few words to make the old madam happy!

“Don’t come here. Don’t try to bewitch an old woman like me. Do you think I don’t know you? If you had nothing to do, you wouldn’t even want to come back once a year, let alone come back to see me!”

The elderly lady pushed a plate of sour apricot honey cake, Mu Chengxi’s favorite, towards him. Today, the kitchen had just made some for her, and now that Mu Chengxi had returned, it seemed this young man was in for a treat.

Mu Chengxi looked at the honey cake beside him and chuckled. He did not reject the old lady’s good intentions. He picked up a small piece and put it in his mouth. The sweet and sour taste was just right. It was not too sweet, not too greasy, and it was slightly sour. It was delicious.

“Auntie Fu’s culinary skills are still as good as ever!”

“Your Auntie Fu is in a good mood today. She made some pastries with the sour apricot jam that she specially made for you. I heard that there are also osmanthus cakes and eight pieces of Jing. When you go back, bring some back for that little girl, Wen Xin!”

Upon mentioning Wen Xin, the old lady’s eyes lit up. She looked at Mu Chengxi and said with anticipation, “You told me on the phone last time that you were chasing after a little girl. Did you get her? When you have time to bring her back to meet Grandma, just say that Grandma’s health is not good and needs her to come over for a check-up!”

Mu Chengxi poured himself a cup of tea when he saw the expectant look on the old lady’s face. He took a sip slowly and chuckled.

“Grandma, Elder Zhuge will tell Wen Xin about your physical condition during his consultation twice a week. She knows better than you do. If I lie to her, do you think she will be angry?”

Mu Chengxi placed the teacup on the table. His voice was elegant as he said, “When the weather is cooler, you can go to Ice City to see your best friend. Your body has recovered very well. It’s good to go out and play!”

Mu Chengxi had a sly smile on his face when he spoke. He did not say some things clearly, but the old lady understood.

“You haven’t married her yet, and you’re already siding with outsiders. When you marry her, I think your knees will go soft!”

The old lady looked at her ‘useless’ grandson with a gentle smile. She wasn’t bothered that he didn’t bring anyone back, but the fact that he wanted her to go to Ice City – this mischievous kid.

“Alright, alright, alright. You have the final say. I know that the little girl was bullied in our house and you’re unhappy, but your aunt is still the mistress of the Ji family. That medicine was given to her by those people with ill intentions. It’s a little too much to let her bear the responsibility alone.”

Diwu Qingzhou had already figured out what had happened that day and dealt with those who had ill intentions. Therefore, this matter was quietly resolved.

Looking at his grandmother’s shrewd eyes, Mu Chengxi raised his eyebrows slightly.” Grandmother’s decision is naturally her own. I’m a junior and I won’t get involved in this matter. If there’s a next time, I won’t show mercy to those who bully my people!”

Mu Chengxi did not want the Mu family’s assets, but bullying Wen Xin was his bottom line.

He could let go of anything before his bottom line was touched, but he would not let go of anyone who touched his bottom line.

Diwu Qingzhou looked at the cool smile on Mu Chengxi’s face and lightly tapped the table, saying, “You heartless little rascal, come on, what’s your purpose for coming back today? Spit it out and then get out of here, don’t linger in my sight.”

She looked at Mu Chengxi’s expression and felt that she had handled this matter a little inappropriately. However, they were both her own children, so what could she do?

“I would like to trouble Granny to issue a statement to prove that I have nothing to do with Wei Shisheng. Right now, everyone in the capital thinks that Wei Shisheng is my fiancée and the future Seventh Young Mistress. This is very annoying, and it has already reached Wen Xin.”

Back on the main topic, Mu Chengxi looked at Diwu Qingzhou with a fawning smile..
