Chapter 30: Staying In the Chen Family
If Li Zhao stayed, it would not only disturb Pei Mingchen and Niannian’s private ti.
Moreover, with his incessant chattering, Pei Mingchen felt that he would be annoyed to death.
Li Zhao was very unhappy. He looked for help at his sister-in-law, who was leaning against the kitchen.
Mu Qiannaina calmly averted her gaze and pretended not to see it.
Li Zhao was still a little unwilling to leave. He said with great effort, “I really know how to handle octopus. After eating the octopus that I made, no one has ever said that it’s not delicious.”
Pei Mingchen imdiately felt that Li Zhao was annoying. He did not hesitate to count down the ti.
.
“Three.”
“Two.”
One had not co out yet, but Li Zhao already resigned himself to his fate and retreated from the kitchen.
Li Zhao gave in helplessly and said, “I’ll go, I’ll go.”
When he reached the living room, Li Zhao said to Pei Mingchen, “There’s one more thing. I’ve found out another thing. The Doctor from the forensics departnt has left the city. I might need to make a trip overseas.”
Not only did the money go into the doctor’s bank account, but the doctor even left the city impatiently.
It was not simple…
Pei Mingchen nodded. “This matter is more important. Quickly find that doctor and bring her back secretly.”
Li Zhao nodded and Mu Qiannian sent her to the door.
After Mu Qiannian returned, she voiced her doubts. “I think that the doctor must have done sothing. Otherwise, why would she suddenly leave?”
Pei Mingchen nodded in agreent. “Actually, I just thought of this question. It seems that there might really be sothing fishy going on. Everything will be clear once we find that doctor.”
On the other side, the news of the new collaboration of the Mu Groups was suddenly announced by an official.
Mu Qiannian’s work content had also increased a lot.
When everyone was talking about the collaboration of the Mu Group, no one knew that Mu Qiannian beside them was the behind-the-scenes boss of the Mu Group.
There were all sorts of things that were said. So were good, so were ugly, and so were even derogatory.
When Mu Qiannian heard those deaning and disdainful words, she did not take them to heart.
She would use her actions to speak.
One day, Mu Qiannian and Pei Mingchen both got busy at the sa ti, which was a rare occurrence.
The two of them got along with each other, holding a computer in their hands and doing their own things in the living room.
Although they did not exchange a word, they would not feel lonely with soone accompanying them.
Suddenly, the phone rang, breaking the atmosphere between the two of them.
“Grandfather.”
When Mu Qiannian heard the word ‘grandfather’, she turned her head around. Pei Mingchen carefully turned on the loudspeaker, and Mu Qiannian moved closer to him.
“I heard that Mu Qiannian has been staying in a hotel all this ti. Why has she been staying in a hotel all this ti?”
A serious voice sounded. The two of them looked at each other tacitly and did not answer. Instead, they waited for Old Master Chen’s next sentence.
“If she can’t return to the Mu residence, then bring Mu Qiannian back to our ho. There are so many rooms in the house and no one is staying in them. Bring her back with you.”
Pei Mingchen did not agree imdiately. Instead, he looked at Mu Qiannian beside him.
Although Mu Qiannian was surprised, she quickly thought of the Chen family’s intention.
When she went to the Chen family’s gathering that day, she had pointed out that she had a relationship with the Su family.
Everyone in the world knew that the Su family was looking for their daughter. Mu Qiannian’s explanation was so ambiguous.
Bai Jin could not help but imagine many things. She felt that Mu Qiannian might be the missing Young Miss of the Su family, so she could not help but tell Old Master Chen and Chen Desheng about this matter.
Old Master Chen was shocked for a long ti after he found out. In the end, the three of them decided to let Mu Qiannian stay in the Chen family as Pei Mingchen’s girlfriend.
In any case, Mu Qiannian was currently a holess adopted daughter who had been kicked out of the Mu family.
If they were to take in the future daughter of the Su family because of this, President Su and Madam Su might thank them properly after they found out about it.
Mu Qiannian could not help but find it funny. If it were not because of her relationship with Pei Mingchen, she would have rejected them without hesitation.
Hence, Mu Qiannian nodded. Pei Mingchen’s eyes flashed with a hint of consideration.
However, in the end, he still said to Old Master Chen on the other end of the phone, “We will go back and live there tomorrow.”
Old Master Chen smiled and his voice beca much more relaxed.
After hanging up on Old Master Chen, Mu Qiannian took the opportunity to lean on Pei Mingchen’s shoulder.
“If grandfather and the others find out that I’m not the daughter of the Su family, do you think they will chase us out again?”
Pei Mingchen frowned and said with certainty, “They will.”
Mu Qiannian could not help but laugh. She reached out to hold Pei Mingchen’s hand, and their fingers interlocked.
The next day, Mu Qiannian and Pei Mingchen arrived at the Chen family ho.
This ti, when the honk rang, the security guard at the door imdiately opened the electronic gate.
Mu Qiannian looked out of the window. It was the sa security guard from last ti.
This ti, it was so smooth. It seed that he did not receive any special instructions.
After parking the car, the two of them ca out of the garage and saw Bai Jin eagerly waiting at the door.
Bai Jin ca up to them enthusiastically. “Your grandfather and I have been waiting for quite a while. Co in.”
Thinking back to last ti, Bai Jin was not as friendly as she was last ti, and she did not pick them up at the door.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They felt that it was extrely ironic.
When they entered the Chen family’s living room, Old Master Chen cheerfully waved at them.
“You’re here. Take a seat.”
The two of them greeted him politely. Old Master Chen asked kindly, “Have you eaten breakfast? If you haven’t, should we ask soone to make you so?”
Mu Qiannian nodded. “We’ve already eaten when we ca. It’s no trouble.”
Old Master Chen took the initiative to change the topic. “I heard from Bai Jin that you’re the daughter of the Su family. This matter is not a joke.”
Mu Qiannian understood in her heart. After being polite for a while, she could not help but open her mouth to probe.
She smiled slightly and explained unhurriedly, “I haven’t acknowledged the Su family as my family, so I’m not their daughter yet.”
Old Master Chen and Bai Jin’s expressions froze.
Bai Jin frowned as she looked at Mu Qiannian. She seed to be displeased, and her tone beca much colder.
“Since you’re still not, were you bluffing last ti?”
Mu Qiannian shook her head innocently. “I was just telling the truth at that ti. Perhaps Auntie’s imagination was too strong and misunderstood what I said.”
Bai Jin choked and imdiately received Old Master Chen’s displeasure. She no longer spoke and admitted that she had been dumb.
At that ti, Mu Qiannian was extrely proud. When she talked about his relationship with the Su family, she made it seed as if the Su family was hers.
Perhaps it was this feeling that made Bai Jin boldly guess.
However, it turned out that it was not the case at all. The Su family did not even acknowledge her. There must be sothing else going on.
Old Master Chen, who was originally kind, turned serious again.
Bai Jin’s warm attitude had also undergone a 180-degree change.
“You too. Why did you say sothing that caused people to misunderstand? You made think that you were already the daughter of the Su family.”
Mu Qiannian did not feel guilty at all. Instead, she replied bluntly, “I did not admit that I was. It was Auntie who misunderstood. It’s not my fault.”
