“No way!” Mu Xuri suddenly exclaimed loudly, apparently forgetting his status as a newcomer.

Mu Dongyu and Mu Haoguo realized and also began to persuade him one after another.

“Jiu, how can you treat your marriage so frivolously?

What status does she have to be worthy of you?”

“Jiu, you need to think this through.

She is Baili Yang’s granddaughter, our enemy!”

“It’s good enough that you don’t drive her away, and you want to marry her?

How can you face our father?”

“Mu Lingchuan was like this, and now you as well.

Why do you young people not consider the family at all?”

“…”

Mu Xuri would certainly oppose this marriage.

Looking at it now, although Mu Xiaojiu is still the president of the Mu Group, it’s clear that Mu Xiaojiu is also willing to listen to Mu Xuri.

In fact, since Mu Xuri returned, Mu Xiaojiu hasn’t said much about the Mu Group’s matters.

So, of course, the two brothers thought it would be enough to win over Mu Xuri in such matters.

Even if Mu Xiaojiu is stubborn, he will eventually listen to Mu Xuri.

Mu Xiaojiu never responded.

He simply sat there, coldly listening.

Mu Lingchuan couldn’t bear to listen any longer, stood up, and raised his voice a few notches unintentionally.

“What do you mean by considering the family?

Must we marry into other families for it to be right?

If that’s the case, I’d rather not have this identity.”

“You…” Mu Dongyu was left speechless by his retort.

Mu Lingchuan had never spoken to his elders with such an attitude at home.

This was the first time.

The usually elegant and ethereal eldest son of the Mu Group, saying such words, indeed was unimaginable.

“Lingchuan, how can you speak to your father like that?” Mu Haoguo reprimanded.

Mu Xuri observed Mu Xiaojiu’s expression from the side, but he still maintained that indifferent look, with no change whatsoever.

I’m afraid if this continues today, there will be no room for maneuver.

At that moment, a thought crossed his mind, and he hatched a plan.

“Brother, let’s take our time with the young people’s affairs. Let’s eat first, the food is getting cold.”

Mu Haoguo snorted, using it as a way out, and stopped talking.

Everyone had their own thoughts, and lunch ended hastily in a tense atmosphere.

…

After leaving the side hall, Baili Xia didn’t know where to go.

Sihai Residence, at this moment, she really didn’t want to return to that place belonging to Uncle.

But, the main house was clearly Mu Xuri’s domain now.

In the vast Mu family, there really seemed to be no place for her to stay.

She walked aimlessly with her head down.

Mu Xiaoyao walked quietly behind her, not disturbing her.

Perhaps Baili Xia also preferred him not to come forward and disrupt her.

In the past, she relied on him so much, trusted him, even acted spoiled in front of her brother.

Now, it seemed there was no going back.

Even knowing he was just following Uncle’s orders, even knowing it was not his decision.

Yet she…

still couldn’t let it go.

She didn’t know how long she’d been walking until she looked up and realized she had reached the courtyard of the medical room.

Zimo, yes, go see Zimo.

She was so upset that she had even forgotten her most caring friend.

She hurried over to the medical room and gently knocked on the door.

A soft voice from Zimo came from inside, “Come in.”

Baili Xia pushed the door open and walked in.

Seeing her go to find Zimo, Mu Xiaoyao didn’t follow.

Following her closely, he feared placing too much pressure on her or being misunderstood as supervising her.

Uncle actually always cared for her, but whether she knew it or not, she didn’t want to keep it in her heart anymore.
