Since Ji Shaojun returned, the Mu Family had been doing better and better.
Seeing hope, Mu Zhendong became even more eager to restore the Mu Family to its former glory.
When the Mu Family was in decline, there was no infighting, but now, in its period of ascent, Mu Zhendong’s confidence had soared, making him the second in command of the Mu Family.
The younger members of the Mu Family all saw hope, and Mu Zhendong was not content with the present benefits, his ambition beginning to swell.
He wanted to use Xiaoqi to exchange for the greatest benefits.
"Uncle, watch your words!" Mu Yining stood up, her expression cold and stern. freёwebnoѵel.com
At her side, Ji Shaojun’s face showed no change.
Not until after Mu Zhendong left did Mu Yining apologetically look towards Ji Shaojun, "Shaojun, I will handle Ren Wanxuan’s matter well, as for Xiaoqi..."
"Xiaoqi listens to Alian," Ji Shaojun narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on the light and shadows outside, his voice also weakened, "He won’t return to the Mu Family."
Mu Yining didn’t speak again; she just felt worried inside.
In the past, Ren Wanxuan was willing to return to the Mu Family, but now neither Bai Lian nor Xiaoqi would come back.
Bai Lian could slowly be persuaded, but Mu Yining had to deal with the Mu Family’s side of things as soon as possible.
She sent Ji Shaojun out the door.
Twenty years ago, the Mu Family was also a family with large assets. A starving camel is still bigger than a horse. It was beyond his expectations that Bai Lian wouldn’t return, but now Ji Shaojun was saying Xiaoqi wouldn’t return either.
"The uncle has gone to meet with the Gao Family," Assistant Wang looked at Mu Yining and expressed his concern, "I don’t know if this time will be successful..."
This year, the Mu Family had only one major project, targeting this heavy industry.
"The Gao Family..." Mu Yining’s gaze grew deeper, "Cooperating with them is like making a deal with a tiger for its skin."
When the Jiang Family ran into trouble, the Gao Family was the first one who wanted to take over parts of the Jiang Family’s enterprises.
Assistant Wang nodded, then seemed to recall something, "Will that Xiaoqi really not return to the Mu Family?"
"They think differently from you," Mu Yining said softly.
Ji Shaojun had stayed in the Mu Family for a time when he was very young, and had been taught by Mu Xiangguang. He came back because he still felt a sense of responsibility for the Mu Family.
But Bai Lian and Xiaoqi truly had none.
Mu Yining was by now quite familiar with Bai Lian, and to her, the Mu Family might not be as important as a classmate from Xiangcheng.
