Just as Su Wanbai returned home, she received a package that was sent from S City with no signature.
She opened it and saw that it was filled with bits and pieces, but they were all small items that she had given to Murong AoTian. They included sunglasses, water glasses, a razor, and even a leaf that Su Wan Bai had casually plucked from a tree. For a cold and detached man to actually be able to do it so meticulously, it truly exceeded Su Wubai's expectations. Strangely, there was a little demonic doll inside that didn't come from her hand.
She curiously pressed the switch on the little demonic doll. Eh, why was her voice coming from inside!
He had probably heard it too many times. Not to mention that the voice was a bit unclear, even the fur on the figurine was almost entirely worn out.
"Ding — — Dong — —" The ringtone sounded.
Su Wanbai looked at his phone and saw that it was a message from Murong Aotian: Have you received everything?
Su Wanbai was in a daze, she slowly pressed down a few words: Where did the recording come from?
She was really curious. As someone with a good memory, she really couldn't remember when she said such a thing.
Murong Aotian did not reply with a text message. Instead, he waited for a long time with a miserable smile.
What did it have to do with her? Since the choice was over, what was the point of paying attention to these unnecessary details?
At this moment, Murong Aotian was sitting in the CEO's office, his face terrifyingly gloomy.
"That Demon Doll wasn't given to me by Su Wanbai, including the recording, right?" Murong Aotian raised his head, fury and viciousness flowing out from his eyes.
"Less... Young Master, Miss Su was not willing to record anything at that time, I was afraid that Young Master would sink into depravity, that's why … " Housekeeper Li was so scared that his face turned pale and she kneeled on the ground.
"Such a heartless woman! I'm so stupid! " Murong Aotian swept all the phones on the table to the ground, looking gloomy.
"Don't say that, Miss Su is …" Housekeeper Li originally wanted to speak up for Su Wanbai, but when she saw the young master staring at her with his red eyes, she immediately shuddered.
"Don't ever mention her again!" Murong Aotian slumped in his boss's chair, lit a cigar, and quickly hid himself in the smoke.
It seemed that the Young Master did not blame her. She could not help but take a deep breath and stood up to leave the office.
"Old master, why have you come?" Seeing the Old Master Murong approaching with large strides, the Housekeeper Li hurriedly went forward to welcome him.
"Do I need a reason to find my son? "How many times have I called him and yet have refused to answer? I have no choice but to come here and stop him myself." Old Master Murong said with a gloomy face.
Housekeeper Li quickly opened the door to the CEO's room and led the way in.
"Ao Tian, when are you going to get married?" Old Master Murong sat on the sofa and glanced at his son.
"Why did you suddenly ask about this? Why, did Hu Xiaodie look for you again?" Murong Aotian put out his cigar in the ashtray and said indifferently.
"It's been a while since you two got engaged, Hu Xiaodie always stays at your place and outsiders will gossip." The Old Master Murong said.
"I'm afraid that others will say something simple and tell her to scram back into the Nangong Family." Murong Aotian's face darkened.
"Recently, the development of our Nangong Group has been advancing rapidly. Recently, we have even been given a few big projects on our Murong Family. Besides, you aren't young anymore. How can you continue to be like this? Although I am not an old-fashioned man, but for such a large business, you have to extend the incense for the Murong Family, right? Little Butterfly was once pregnant with a child of Murong Family, but unfortunately, you forced her to get rid of him. Old Master Murong squinted his eyes, as if he was immersed in a warm dream.
I'm not even thirty. What's the rush?" It's easy to get a grandson. In the blink of an eye, I'll give you a job, and you can even make a platoon. " Mu Rong Ao Tian originally wanted to joke around with his father, but the words that came out of his mouth sounded harsh and unpleasant.
Right now, he really didn't have the mood to talk about this, but since his father had come all the way to find him, he couldn't just chase him away.
"You can wait, I can't wait!" How about this, next month's 10th is an auspicious day, you and Xiao Die have arranged the wedding. The certificate is licensed, and the round room is round. Living together with other people, who would you like to live with? Don't wait any longer! " Old Master Murong took the tea offered to him by Housekeeper Li and took a sip.
"Dad, do you want me to be a man of my word, or a man of my word?" Murong Aotian's eyes darkened.
"What do you mean?" Old Master Murong asked.
"Back then, Mengyao died under my spear. I made a promise that I would never marry nor have any children!" Murong Aotian said casually, as if he was talking about today's weather.
"What?" Old Master Murong's hand trembled, and the teacup fell to the ground, shattering into pieces. Fragments of the teacup lay at his feet, and the steaming tea and hot water darkened the carpet.
He had never known about this promise. Although he had heard rumors about it before, he had always believed it was just rumors. Back then, Murong Aotian would not have done anything to him without making such a promise. As the successor of the Murong Group, how could he not know what burning incense meant to the entire clan? After making such a heavy oath, didn't he just watch helplessly as his Murong Family fell? He could not believe it, nor could he imagine why his son agreed to all this. If it was just to make up for his debt for so many years, it would be enough.
"It's true, and it's not a whim. It's deliberate." Murong Aotian turned his head and looked at the gloomy sky, he seemed to be lost in thought for a long time.
"How about this, I will personally go to the Jin Family to ask for punishment, and let them see your past relationship with Mengyao …" Old Master Murong's voice trembled slightly.
He was also someone who cared about face. It took a lot of courage for him to humble himself and beg for forgiveness. He truly hoped that this promise was only a one-sided wish on his son's part. If Jin Family wasn't taken to heart, there was still room for negotiation. A promise is but an illusory thing, and if it is of no consequence, it exists when it exists, and it is indisputable that it does not exist. Time never stopped. If he was always preoccupied with the past, how could he continue living his life? The dead are gone, and it would be unfair for the living to bear the weight of the cross for them. As long as Jin Family could continue listening to these principles, there would still be room for discussion.
"It's no use, Jin Yihan has hated me for close to ten years, he really wants to eat my flesh and drink my blood, he alone cannot pass, why must be so stubborn!" Murong Aotian sneered.
Old Master Murong sighed, and left with a gloomy face.
Murong Aotian was right, he hated Murong Aotian as much as he loved and cared for his sister. Their friendship had completely ended the moment Mengyao died, and now, other than deep-seated hatred, there was nothing else between the two of them.
However, Murong Aotian and Su Wanbai had separated, which meant, in Jin Yihan's eyes, Su Wanbai was no longer his threat. Thinking of this, Murong Aotian slightly relaxed. Nangong Bingjie received her father's punishment, so she would probably not make a move against Su Wanbai in the near future.
A wry smile slid across the corner of Murong Aotian's mouth. This woman was still so important to him, she was always the first person he thought of.
Love, if only it didn't hurt.
There would be no other woman coming into his mind, so what was he going to do with his marriage? Suddenly, the promise became Murong Aotian's protective talisman. If a person's heart already belongs to someone, then with anyone else, it would be fine. Born in a wealthy family, he had tolerated a lot of things to himself. As for his love, he didn't want to be the only one. Engaging with Hu Xiaodie was already his bottom line. If you want to marry him and be his other half in life, don't even think about it!
"Young master, old master is really swift and decisive, he really went to the Jin Family." Housekeeper Li pushed the door and entered, telling Murong Aotian in a low voice.
"Oh?" Murong Aotian raised his head from the pile of documents and narrowed his eyes.
"But, if Master goes, I don't think there will be any gains. Old Master Jin is worried about another matter." The Housekeeper Li was in high spirits as he kept them in suspense.
"Speak!" Murong Aotian retracted his gaze and started flipping through the documents on the table.
"I heard that Su Muyan suddenly became Young Master Jin's girlfriend. However, the two of them had no choice but to blow away after twenty days. Three months later, today, Su Muyan suddenly barged into the Jin Mansion, said that she was pregnant with Jin Yihan's child, and that it was … Triplets! The falling treasured grandsons made Old Master Jin extremely happy, but Young Master Jin insisted on letting Su Muyan beat the child to death. Right now, his Jin Family was definitely in a mess! If you do not even know how to handle the matters of the family, how would the Old Master Jin have the mind to deal with the matters of the past? " Women are born gossiping, Housekeeper Li couldn't help but to get excited. Such a melodramatic scene actually happened right by his side.
"Oh." Murong Aotian replied indifferently, and then looked down at the document again.
The smile on the Housekeeper Li froze on his face. Jin Yihan was his young master's mortal enemy, if he met with a troublesome opponent, the young master should be happy. It was strange that he did not react at all. But then he thought, no matter what, the young master had just lost his heart, so it was understandable that he was not interested in other things.
But Steward Li was quite pleased with himself. Jin Yi Han, oh Jin Yi Han, that year, she stole Su Wan Bai from her young master and fooled her young master, making him suffer a lot. To think that there would be a day when you were captured by a lady by three inches. Let's see how you still dare to act so arrogantly! The one who plotted against others was actually plotted against by a woman. What a pity! "The anger she had been suppressing in her heart was finally released. Butler Li couldn't help but lift the corners of his mouth and reveal a brilliant smile.
