Mu Huaisheng smiled bitterly and pursed his lips. This small favor had caused a lot of trouble for the Mu family. Mu Sisi might not know, but he knew that the Mu family planned to focus on the domestic market in the future. If the beginning was so bad, it would be difficult in the future.
"Why?" Mu Huaisheng asked calmly.
"I was injured a while ago. Here." Qi Chengzhi pointed to his abdomen. "I was stabbed by a knife. It was very serious and I almost died. I managed to survive and was hospitalized. I don't know how Mu Sisi knew that I was injured and hospitalized. Only a few people knew about this and those who knew wouldn't tell Mu Sisi. "
"When?" Mu Huaisheng was shocked and his expression became serious.
"More than a month ago." Qi Chengzhi's expression was very calm. It didn't look like he had just walked through the gates of hell.
Mu Huaisheng's face suddenly became cold. "I also asked her if she had been bothering you recently. She told me confidently that she hadn't. What did she do this time? "
"Nothing. She just wanted to force herself on me and give birth to a child when I was lying in bed recuperating. She forced me to avoid her and my wound split open again. My injury worsened." Although Qi Chengzhi didn't feel any pain from his wound now, he still felt a little uncomfortable when this matter was mentioned.
Seeing Mu Huaisheng's shocked expression, Qi Chengzhi's voice was indifferent. "I really couldn't stand her harassment anymore. I didn't know how to make it clear to her so that she would give up and stop bothering our lives. Since your family didn't do anything, we had to do something. This matter was decided by our Old Master and Old Madam. They were furious when they saw that my body, which had finally recovered, was injured again. It's useless for you to come to me today. This matter isn't up to me. Even if I want to stop, it's up to our Old Master and Old Madam. "
Qi Chengzhi put his left hand in his trouser pocket and took out his ringing phone with his right hand. He looked at it and turned it off. "My family is urging me. You know why we didn't invite you this time. Old Madam and Old Madam are angry. We didn't do anything before because we thought it was just a small matter. We, the Eight Great Families, also have our pride as a family. We don't want to fall out with her because of such a small matter. Otherwise, the Qi Family will be very busy these years. It wasn't that the Wei Clan didn't know that Mu Sisi had offended Wei Rongxuan last time. It wasn't that they didn't value Wei Rongxuan and felt that it wasn't worth it to make a big fuss over her. Instead, I feel that this is just a child's quarrel, a personal matter. There's no need to escalate it into a family conflict. I don't want to lower myself to your level for such a small matter. "
Mu Huaisheng's eyebrows twitched. He really thought that the Wei Clan didn't want to go through so much trouble just because of Wei Rongxuan.
Qi Chengzhi nodded at Mu Huaisheng and left without another word.
Mu Huaisheng still stood where he was. After calming down, he let out a deep breath and walked towards the parking lot. However, he stopped at the entrance of Dynasty. He saw the old master and the old lady walking over, followed by Qi Zhongxun and Qi Zhongliang.
They were all dressed in the period of the Republic of China. The three men, led by the old man, were wearing suits, and the old man was wearing a top hat. The old lady, Xia Wenna, and Guan Liya were wearing cheongsams, looking very elegant.
Mu Huaisheng greeted them, and the old man and the old lady only responded coldly. Mu Huaisheng didn't say anything else and left.
The old lady entered the banquet hall. Before she had time to admire the exquisite decorations, she went to find Qi Chengzhi and asked Mu Huaisheng why he was here.
After Qi Chengzhi said it, the old lady snorted unhappily. "That young man is quite shameless. Back then, when Mu Sisi seduced you in front of Song, he still brought Mu Sisi to our house. Now that Mu Sisi has done such a shameless thing, he still has the face to see you? "
Qi Chengzhi didn't say anything. The old lady was also a straightforward person. After saying what was on her mind, she felt better. She went to take the old man and the two daughters-in-law to take pictures. They kept changing their poses in every scene.
…
…
Mu Sisi went shopping and came back with bags of various sizes. As soon as she entered the house, she saw her parents and Mu Huaisheng's dark faces.
"Come here," Mu Huili said in a stiff voice.
"Dad, Mom, what's wrong?" Mu Sisi put down the things and walked into the living room.
"Didn't you say that you haven't looked for Qi Chengzhi recently?" Mu Huili asked coldly. "Then who did you look for a month ago?"
Mu Sisi's expression changed before she said, "When my brother asked, he asked me if I've been looking for him recently. I really haven't been looking for him recently. It's been a long time since I last looked for him."
"Mu Sisi, how dare you deny it!" Even Fang Anci, who had always doted on Mu Sisi, was furious. "Is this what I taught you since you were young? Rushing to beg a man to have you? You strip naked in front of him and he won't even look at you. But you, while he's injured and can't get out of bed, you still want to … rape him? This isn't love, you're shameless! Not to mention that he's single, even if you do this to him, he would still despise you. In order to teach you a lesson, he wants to deal with our company. You should know your place and stop. Now you've fallen for a married man. His wife is already pregnant, but you're still doing this. What are you thinking? A man with a wife is so easily tempted by a mistress. Even if you manage to snatch such a man, would you dare to spend the rest of your life with him? Today you can snatch another woman's husband, but tomorrow someone else will come and snatch your husband! Qi Chengzhi made it clear from the beginning that he doesn't want you. He didn't want you even if his wound was aggravated. After you were kicked out of the ward, aren't you ashamed? Don't you feel ashamed of yourself? Don't you feel ashamed? "
"Mom, I'm your daughter. Why are you saying this to me? In the eyes of others, I may be shameless, but I'm pursuing my love. What's wrong with me? For the sake of love, I bravely pursue it, bravely try. Even if I fail, I shouldn't be scolded for being shameless. Yes, he's married. In the eyes of others, I'm a mistress, but so what? Don't mistresses have human rights? Can't a mistress go and like a man? I'm just unlucky. I fell in love with a man with a family, but my love is pure. I don't covet anything from him. If my brother hadn't said that he wanted me to go on blind dates and get married, I wouldn't have been so anxious to choose this method. I just want to be pregnant with the child of the man I love before I get married. I just want to be pregnant with his child and raise his child. I have no hope with him in this life. At least I can have a child that belongs to him. Is it wrong for me to defend my love like this? "Mu Sisi pointed at her chest and cried.
"You …" Fang Anci was so angry that the hand she pointed at her trembled. "What kind of twisted logic is that? The relationship between two people is called love. If you only like one person, that's called unrequited love. What kind of love are you talking about? You deliberately want to destroy other people's families and marriages. That's not love, that's selfishness! It's fine if he likes you, but he doesn't. You say you love him, but you don't even want to give him happiness. What is your love? What can you give him? Endless harassment? "
"Why can't I give him happiness? If he marries me, I can make him the happiest man in the world. "Mu Sisi confidently said in a loud voice.
"No wonder your brother can't control you. Who taught you this set of twisted logic? He can only be happy if he loves you. If he doesn't love you, how can he be happy? " Mu Sisi opened her mouth to refute, but Fang Anci rushed to continue before she could, "Don't say that you can make him fall in love with you sooner or later. Even when he was injured and couldn't move, he didn't give in. What right do you have to make him love you? I won't argue with you about your theory of love. I don't know how we raised you since you were young to become such an unreasonable person with a mouth full of fallacies. I just want to ask you, if your love causes our family's business to suffer losses, or even worse, you won't be able to be as extravagant as before, and you won't be able to be a high and mighty young lady anymore. Will you still persist in your love? "
Mu Sisi was stunned. She was still crying and sniffling. She asked, "What do you mean?"
"Why do you think our family wants to develop the market here? Why do you want your brother to come personally? Even knowing that you can't help, he still asked you to come?" Mu Huili said coldly.
"Is there something wrong with the company?" Mu Sisi asked with some fear.
"You also know that our family isn't in the luxury goods business. We take the affordable route. But there are too many affordable brands now, and MU's market share is constantly decreasing. A while ago, we went to Europe to discuss the closure of some stores and to return the capital to the country. Because there are still no stores in the country, although our market share abroad is small, we are still quite popular in the country, so we plan to focus our business here in the future. I was even considering moving the head office here. It would be too much to invest in the United States, so we can reduce the cost here. But ever since you came here, you've been causing trouble for your family and offending everyone. How can the company develop here in the future? You really have good taste. You don't offend normal people, but you offend the top. "Mu Huili sneered angrily.
Mu Sisi let out a sigh of relief. "You scared me to death. I thought it was something serious. Our family is going bankrupt."
"You think our family is doing well now, right? In the Chinese social circle in the United States, we are no longer ranked. Otherwise, why would we all come here? "Mu Huili heard Mu Sisi's words and was filled with anger.
"Since we're all back, we won't allow you to continue being so willful. You're not young anymore. It's time to seriously find a suitable family to marry, "Fang Anci said coldly. "Not only can it help our family take root here, but it will also prevent us from causing trouble for others and causing trouble everywhere."
"I'm not marrying!" Mu Sisi immediately reacted and shouted loudly when she heard this.
"What can you do if you don't marry? Don't tell me you want to guard your one-sided love for the rest of your life? Let me tell you, Qi Chengzhi will never be with you in this life, so don't count on it. Wake up early and live your life honestly. Don't hold on to those unrealistic fantasies. "Mu Huili said impatiently.
Now that he and Fang Anci had personally come over to oversee things, they even planned to sell a few properties in America. Of course, they couldn't send Mu Sisi back.
"I'm only 24, I'm still young. So what if I wait for him for another six years? Why don't you let Mu Huaisheng hurry up and get married? "Mu Sisi stretched her neck to protest.
"You don't need to worry about your brother's matters." Mu Huili said coldly.
"I've already contacted your uncle. He said that the Li family is not bad and can help us. He can introduce you to Li Zhuohui." Fang Anci said.
"I don't want to. Li Zhuohui is already married. I'm such a good person, why should I find a second married man?" Mu Sisi said unhappily. Compared to Qi Chengzhi, Li Zhuohui was not just a little bit inferior. She had seen a man like Qi Chengzhi before. How could she be willing to find someone so inferior?
"If Qi Chengzhi gets a divorce, wouldn't he also be a second married man?" Fang Anci immediately said. "Moreover, you despise Li Zhuohui, but how do you know that Li Zhuohui won't despise you? Back then, when you took off all your clothes to seduce Qi Chengzhi, it caused a huge uproar. You might as well get a divorce. Even if you want, Li Zhuohui might not necessarily want you. "
Mu Sisi's face turned red. She was very unconvinced. How could she be so unbearable?
"If you don't like Li Zhuohui, then go and meet Gao Jingqiu. The Gao family is not much worse than the Li family." Other than the eldest son or only son who would be in power in the future, Fang Anci did not consider anyone else. Therefore, Fang Anci did not even mention Li Zhuoan.
"I don't want to!" Mu Sisi was mad. She angrily shook her head and shouted.
"You don't have the right to say no to this matter. We will arrange for you to meet Gao Jingqiu as soon as possible." Mu Huili said in a stern voice that did not allow for rebuttal. "If you don't want to meet him, we will immediately arrange for the marriage. We have already asked the Gao family for their opinion. Gao Jingqiu's marriage will be decided by the family. He himself does not care and has long prepared for the marriage. What matters is the family and not the wife herself. Therefore, he does not care who the blind date is. "
"Why are you guys talking as if no one wants me? I don't want to marry, I don't want to marry! "After Mu Sisi screamed, she turned and ran out of the house.
"This … This child …" Fang Anci took two steps forward. She could not catch up and could only stop. She was angry and helpless. "How did she become like this!"
…
…
Mu Sisi went to the bar alone. She sat in a corner and directly ordered a bottle of pure whiskey. She did not even add ice and poured it into a glass. She drank until her head was dizzy and a little dazed. Her brain's reaction was a little slow. This was the most comfortable moment. She took out her phone.
After Qi Chengzhi finished showering, he casually wiped his hair with a towel. His hair was still a little wet and the ends were dripping with water. He ignored it and just put the towel around his neck. He sat on the sofa and opened his laptop to work.
Song Yu really could not stand it anymore. She went to the bathroom to get a hairdryer and knelt on the sofa to dry his hair.
"Don't bother." Qi Chengzhi held her waist with one hand. Her protruding belly just happened to touch his face.
Song Yu was embarrassed. She looked a little too clumsy now. Qi Chengzhi turned his head and kissed her belly. Then he looked up and smiled at her. Song Yu was dumbfounded for a moment by his handsome and gentle appearance.
She gently wiped the water off his face with her fingertips and said softly, "You do your work. I'll dry your hair for you. It's not good for your health like this."
Qi Chengzhi smiled and turned to work, letting Song Yu dry his hair for him.
Amidst the buzzing sound of the hairdryer, the phone next to the laptop vibrated. Qi Chengzhi picked it up and saw that it was a number he didn't recognize, so he picked it up. Song Yu also turned off the hairdryer to avoid affecting the call.
Qi Chengzhi held Song Yu's waist and gently leaned against her belly. It was comfortable and casual.
"Brother Chengzhi, it's me." Mu Sisi's drunken and choked voice came through the phone. "Brother Chengzhi, my parents want me to marry off. They want me to marry Gao Jingqiu. What should I do? I don't want to marry. I don't want to marry anyone except you. I'd rather watch you like this for the rest of my life and like you for the rest of my life. For you, I'd rather not marry for the rest of my life. Brother Chengzhi, come and pick me up, okay? I want to see you, Brother Chengzhi — "
Qi Chengzhi hung up the phone impatiently.
"Who was that?" Song Yu asked when she saw Qi Chengzhi's unhappy expression.
"Mu Sisi. I don't know when she changed her phone number. My phone didn't give me any notifications." Qi Chengzhi transferred the number to the blacklist before putting the phone down.
Song Yu was a little annoyed. Was this Mu Sisi done? Why did she call again?
Qi Chengzhi explained, "She said her parents are forcing her to marry someone. She's crying over there."
"She must be saying something like how much she loves you and that she can only be with you in this life, right?" Song Yu said speechlessly. Her eyes narrowed. She was really annoyed by Mu Sisi.
"Hurry up and dry my hair. It's cold." Qi Chengzhi chuckled and urged her.
…
…
Mu Sisi didn't hear a reply. She said "hello" a few times before realizing that Qi Chengzhi had already hung up. She dialed back again but couldn't get through.
"Why? Why won't you even say a word to me! Brother Chengzhi, even if it's just once, just once, you won't give it to me? "Mu Sisi felt wronged. Her love was not accepted.
Unknowingly, she drank more and more.
"Miss, are you alone?" When she was getting more and more dizzy, she heard a man's voice from above her head. It was quite pleasant to hear.
In a daze, she only saw a clean white shirt. The other party sat directly beside her and wrapped his arms around her shoulders tightly.
"What are you doing? Let go of me. I'm not interested. " Mu Sisi wanted to shake the man's hand off, but she didn't have any strength at all. She tried a few times but to no avail.
"Don't be like this. It's so lonely drinking alone," the other party said. He poured more wine for her and actually poured it directly into her mouth.
"What are you doing?" Mu Sisi shook her head and wanted to avoid it, but he forced it in. Because her tongue had long been numb from drinking, she could faintly smell something strange in it, but it wasn't obvious, so she just ignored it.
Not long after, she began to feel dizzy. Her mind was still a little clear, but she had no strength left.
"Where are you taking me?" Mu Sisi said weakly. She had already been helped up by the other party. She leaned against his arms and walked out.
"I'm taking you to rest," the other party said.
Mu Sisi suddenly felt that the other party's voice was so pleasant. It was so similar to Qi Chengzhi's voice. She trembled slightly and became even more powerless. "Brother Chengzhi?"
The other party didn't speak, but Mu Sisi hugged him tightly. "Brother Chengzhi, is that you? Did you come to find me, Brother Chengzhi? I know you have me in your heart. I just knew it. "
She felt her vision becoming more and more blurry. She already didn't know where she was going. She only saw that the man in front of her seemed to be Qi Chengzhi.
Mu Sisi gradually became aroused. She didn't know when she was already lying on the bed, but the other party turned over. Mu Sisi completely opened up to welcome him. She only saw Qi Chengzhi's face in front of her. She was especially satisfied and kept shouting, "Brother Chengzhi, Brother Chengzhi, you finally want me. Brother Chengzhi … I love you … I love you …"
