Chapter 555: Threatening for a Favor? (4)
Bo Junyan shot him a look, and Huo Li, who was about to say something more, immediately stopped talking.
“Huo Li, why are you talking to your sister-in-law like that?” Meng Yueman looked at Huo Li.
“I have something on and need to go out for a while. Please take your time to eat!” Huo Li said as he stood up and left.
After he left...
Meng Yueman looked at Mu Huan and said, “The two of them have been spoiled. Don’t stoop to their level.”
Huo Yuqi: “...”
Was she being shot in the back?
Mu Huan nodded. “Okay.”
Mu Huan, who was bare-faced, had her black, straight, and smooth hair hanging on both sides of her face demurely. Her small oval-shaped face and big eyes made her look like an obedient and well-behaved student. Anyone who saw her like this would find her docile and want to dote on her.
Hence, looking at her like this...
Meng Yueman: “Good girl.”
Mu Huan: “...”
When they were almost done with their meal, the butler came in.
“Sir, Elder Dong is here to visit.”
Bo Junyan looked at Mu Huan and said, “Continue eating.”
“Uh-huh.” Mu Huan nodded repeatedly.
“Is it Dong Xuezhen?” Meng Yueman asked.
“Yes.”
“I wanted to see him tomorrow, but he’s just in time,” Meng Yueman said as she wiped her mouth and stood up.
“What’s the matter?”
“Don’t you need his land for the project you’re working on right now? I want to talk to him about it.” Mr. Bo was no longer concerned with the company’s affairs, but he would still ask about bigger projects.
The project that the company was working on now would cost more than two billion, so Mr. Bo knew that the plot of land was not for sale.
He knew that Meng Yueman knew as well.
Bo Junyan was on good terms with the Dong family, so his parents were on good terms with the Dong family. Meng Yueman had intended to make a trip to the Dong family home tomorrow, but now that he was here, she decided to talk to him about it.
Bo Junyan did not say anything else and got up to leave.
Meng Yueman followed behind him.
Not long after she left, Ling Wei left, and Huo Yuqi left as well.
Only Mu Huan was still busy eating.
The Ling family had business dealings with the Dong family, and they were very close. Hence, Ling Wei did not leave the house. Instead, she went to the living room with Meng Yueman to convince Dong Xuezhen to sell the land.
But...
Dong Xuezhen did not come because he had heard that Meng Yueman had returned. He was not here to visit Meng Yueman. He was here to look for Mu Huan.
“Are you saying that the child Xiao Huan saved is your granddaughter?” Meng Yueman had spent most of her time overseas and had never seen a junior from the Dong family.
“Yes. Today, my granddaughter’s school organized an outing. That child was accidentally pushed down!” said Dong Xuezhen. He then added, “Yueman, you’re really lucky to have such a good son. Because he’s so capable, he managed to give you such a good daughter-in-law!”
This old man doted on the children of his family every generation, and this young lady was Old Master Dong’s first granddaughter. He’d always treated her very preciously, and he was ever afraid of losing her. Mu Huan had saved his granddaughter’s life, so naturally, even though he had not met Mu Huan yet, he still felt that Mu Huan was the best!
After his granddaughter was sent home, Dong Xuezhen sent someone to find out who the person who had saved his granddaughter was. As she was a part of a class trip, many people knew about Mu Huan’s identity. Furthermore, Dong Xuezhen’s son had attended Gu Chenyi’s engagement party a while ago. Through Mu Huan’s photo at school, he recognized that she was Bo Junyan’s wife.
Upon learning that she was the Bo family’s daughter-in-law, Dong Xuezhen immediately got someone to prepare a substantial gift for her.
