Chapter 40

C40 He Directly Slapped Shang Xiaojie

As expected, this old man would agree if he backed down.

Shang Minjie was very confident, but Mu Renying continued, “But I have one condition, which is to compete fairly. That Xiaojie will also have to live in my Mu Family for the next half year.” This caused her expression to change drastically.

“What is it? Am I asking too much? You said it yourself, fair competition, didn’t you? ” Seeing the anger in Shang Minjie’s eyes, Mu Renying’s expression turned cold as he used his authority to suppress her.

No matter how unhappy Shang Minjie was, she had to agree to it because she was sure that if she did not agree, Mu Renying Qiang would force her out of the Mu Family, and what happened after that would be even less.

“Uncle Mu, you’re overthinking it. I’ve already said it’s a fair competition, how could I not agree?” Ye Zichen smiled sweetly, but he had wanted Mu Renying to die a long time ago.

Shang Minjie, endure a moment of peace. It’s impossible for Mu Sifa to fall for you in half a year’s time. You just have to use Shang Xiaojie to turn his life upside down, so he can’t focus all his energy on the hospital.

I underestimated Shang Xiaojie, this brat! Who would have thought that he would be able to hook up with Mu Sifa.

Without waiting for Shang Xiaojie to explain his relationship with Mu Sifa, Shang Minjie opened her mouth and interrupted. Although her voice didn’t change, she looked at Shang Xiaojie with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

He didn’t want to argue with Shang Minjie about Mu Sifa, but no matter how he tried to explain it to Shang Minjie, she wouldn’t believe him.

“Then from now on, I’ll have to ask you for your advice.” He held Shang Xiaojie’s hand and then turned to Mu Renying with a smile. “Uncle Mu, I’ll go back and pack first.” He nodded politely and returned back to Shang Xiaojie. “Xiaojie, elder sister will take you to school on the way!”

The smile was still impeccable, which made Shang Xiaojie heave a sigh of relief. He simply thought that Shang Minjie was not angry at this moment.

However, Mu Xiaoxiao, who was standing at the side, did not think so. She stepped forward and smiled at Shang Minjie, “Give me a lift as well!” It was a smile, but she was on guard against Shang Minjie. She directly told her that this was the sign of a storm.

“Alright.” The smile was still on his face.

However, when they arrived at the courtyard, where Mu Renying couldn’t see her, she turned around and slapped Shang Xiaojie with a vicious gaze.

Shang Xiaojie was stunned, followed by tears that started to fall. Compared to the pain on his face, his heart was the one that was truly injured.
