Mu Chang frowned as he looks at his watch. He had to pick up Ru Shi from school, but here he is listening to these old people. Mu Chang was called back to the old house to come for lunch. Generally speaking, he knew this lunch was a disguise the moment he saw the Qin Jieli's parents sitting there.
In order not to Li Mu Chang get angry or disgusted, they did not mention Qin jieli or talked about what happened. They talked about the flowers, work and recall the past. They even joked about when Mu Chang and Qin jieli were together. After they finished eating, his mother finally talked.
"Li Mu, there are actually some things that I want to tell you." Li Yitong cleared her throat and said faintly. Although they are Mu Chang's parents they are very clear about his temper. Seeing his attitude towards Ru Shi, they knew he has no thoughts on marrying Qin Jieli now.
"I know." Unexpectedly, Mu Chang put down the cup in his hands down and looked at them. Mu Chang's face showed a determined look as he said, "the things you want to say, I won't agree." Of course, he is their son, he knows what they want to say already.
Mr. Li who has been quiet finally speaks, "Li Mu do you know that as men we must keep our promise right?" he said as he stared at Mu Chang. "Yes, I know but some promise must be broken if it will block your happiness". Mu Chang said as he looks at his father.
For this man, he respects him very much. After all, he is his father, If is not because of him, he wouldn't be sitting here wasting his time. If based on his usual temper, this kind of thing that is impossible to compromise he would have already left three-sentence "it is impossible," then turn and left.
Mu Chang's words block their words. Mr. and Mrs. Qin frowned when they heard him. What is wrong with their daughter? She has been chasing Mu Chang for years and he even came to ask her hands in marriage. Now, why is he not willing to marry her? Also, if their families join hands, they will be strong that no one can shake their position in this country.
At this moment, Li Yi who was standing at the door thought an important thing has happened in the family that's why he turned off his phone. When he realized that there is nothing important happening he turned on his phone. The moment he did, he saw a bunch of missed calls and messages. He gave a slight glimpse before he can response Ru Shi's call came in. The slight vibration of the phone sounded in the quiet room. Everyone turned to look at the door. Mu chang raised his brows as he looks at Li Yi. Li Yi nodded as if to tell him is Ru Shi's call. They had to pick her up from school and now he is stuck here. Not waiting for Mu Chang to regain his gaze, Mrs. Qin spoke.
"Li Mu Chang nobody forced you to ask Qin jieli's hand in marriage before. You did it yourself, you made her your fiancée. Now we think is time to get married to her. We need an heir for the family. You're not getting young. You will be thirty-one in three days! When do you want to settle down? We can't go back on our word to the Qin family. You made them a promise to marry their daughter. Now is time to fulfill that promise."
Mu Chang looks at his mother. "Well, the reason why I came here is to tell you that Miss Qin is no longer my fiancée. The moment she left without saying anything, she is no longer my fiancée. So I want Mr. and Mrs. Qin to know that I have nothing to do with their daughter now. I hope Miss Qin finds her own happiness and everyone will forget about this."
The Qin's and Li's have a good relationship. He doesn't want to destroy it. But he can't go back with Qin Jieli. Standing at the door, Li Yi just hung up the call of Ru Shi he doesn't know if she heard the conversation now.
When they heard him, their face turned black. "Li Mu, you know she left just to pursue her dreams. What did she do wrong?!" Mrs. Qin spoke, if not because their daughter was suffering she would never come here. She really wants her daughter to find another man but her stubborn daughter won't listen.
"Nothing, the fact that she left without saying anything is the problem. Also, because of her the several years of relationship between the Qin's and Li's nearly got damaged."
Mu Chang said indifferently. "But she saved you once! How can you do that to your savior." Mu Chang was too lazy to explain things to them. He can see they have already made up their minds. Whatever he says won't make a difference.
"Li Yi, what are the consequences for those who try to poison me?" Mu Chang asked coldly. Li Yi who was standing at the door gently said, "Those who dare to poison you were given a taste of their own medicine or have experience torture worse than death.
Qin Jieli's parents face changed slightly and they stopped talking. Mu Chang stood up after Li Yi finish speaking. "If there is nothing else, I will leave now."
Just as Mu Chang reached the door, a deep voice sounded behind him. "Li Mu Chang!" Mu Chang stopped and turned to look at his father. "The hostess position cannot be obtained by anybody. " Looking at the indifference look on his son's face he sighed. He waved his hands. "If you find the time, bring her to the house to eat."
When Li Yi heard Mr. Li he was excited does this mean that Mr. Li will give Miss Ru a chance? Without waiting for Mu Chang's response he added, "if you want her to enter this house, you know what you have to do." Mu Chang nodded to his father and left.
