Two-Faced Husband, Have Some Decency!

The old lady coughed and began, ”That’s right. The proper thing to do is stay well away from a married man. Even if she likes him, she can’t be saying those inappropriate things in front of his wife. Miss Mu, maybe the way you think is different because you grew up in America, but if you really are sincere in your apology, you should maintain a distance with Chengzhi. Stop saying things like how you want to be his friend or his sister. If you still remain close to him after that news report, it’ll create a huge misunderstanding if you get caught by those reporters. It won’t be good for our family, for Chengzhi and Song Yu, or for yourself.

”Chengzhi and Song Yu are married. The news might not affect their marriage, but outsiders will think that Chengzhi is treating Song Yu badly. They’ll misunderstand that Song Yu’s having an unhappy marriage. It’s not fair to the both of them and you. You’re not married yet. The news reports will also put a stain on the reputation of a young lady like yourself. Wouldn’t you agree that it does you no favors for your future marriage?”

The old lady spoke frankly and sensibly, leaving Mu Sisi stifled and speechless.

At one side, Qi Chengyue was deshelling some pecans for Qi Youxuan. While doing so, she added a few comments, ”Miss Mu, you keep saying that you’ve liked my big brother for ten years already, but you knew him from when he was in America. He was studying for his PhD during that period. If you think that time and duration can be used to measure the depth of one’s love, then you might be surprised to know that my big brother has liked Song Yu for more than ten years. Song Yu knew my big brother ever since she was born, and if you were to take all that into account, they’ve known each other for at least twenty-six years already. If you insist on blabbing about how long you’ve liked him, you still can’t compare to Song Yu.

”Of course, I don’t know when my big brother actually started liking Song Yu, since he wouldn’t tell me. But I can guarantee that it’s longer than you.” Qi Chengyue deshelled a whole plate of pecans for Qi Youxuan and moved on to shell some pine nuts.

Mu Sisi’s expression turned stiff. There were still some things she wished to voice out, but before she could do so, Mu Huaisheng asked, ”Song Yu, we’ve already confirmed the location for the store. Let’s set up a time to meet with that designer, whenever you’re free.”

”How about tomorrow? Your opening shouldn’t be delayed. It’s better if things are completed quickly,” Song Yu suggested. Tomorrow was a Monday, which meant that Ruan Danchen would be coming to work.

”Alright, I’ll contact you tomorrow.” Mu Huaisheng nodded. He dragged Mu Sisi away in spite of the latter’s struggles to try and break free.

Mu Huaisheng took large strides toward the car, hauling his sister along with him. He opened the car door and threw her inside before dashing into the driver’s seat. Afraid that Mu Sisi might try her luck in escaping, he made sure to lock all the doors.

”Why did you drag me away like that! You’re disgracing me!” Mu Sisi threw a fit as soon as Mu Huaisheng entered the car.

”I’m disgracing you? What about all that stuff you said to them? You don’t think that’s disgraceful? The Qi family has already made their stand clear. Why are you still not letting this go? Why did you come to apologize?” Mu Huaisheng sneered coldly. ”How could you say all those things! Is that how you apologize? What in the hell did you say in front of all of them! You’ve humiliated me to no end, and before I even said anything, you have the decency to accuse me of disgracing you?! If I wasn’t sitting there, Qi Chengzhi would have kicked you out of the house. Mu Sisi, when will you be able to reflect on your actions?!”

”How did I not reflect on my actions!” Mu Sisi thrashed her arms wildly, messing up her hair to the point where some of it was covering her face like a deranged woman. ”I already said that I was willing to be his friend or his sister. I just want to be beside Big Brother Chengzhi, that’s all. It’s Song Yu who’s being a bully! I’ve already compromised but it’s still not enough for her! She’s just narrow-minded!”
