Mu Yunzhu gave an excuse, now he had to be in charge of both Mu Family and Bai Family. He was busy with work, and had to go back and forth from work every day for a long time, so he wanted to concentrate more on his work. The reason he brought Shen Xiao along was because she could take care of her daily life.

Moreover, Shen Xiaoxiao had been introduced by Bai Qianzhang to help the servants of the Mu family. He had never thought that Mu Yunzhu would fail to inform Bai Qianzhang of this matter, and his son had actually left Bai Qianzhi, a beautiful fiancée behind to ignore him. He had fallen in love with a delicate and pretty maid.

When Bai Qi heard this news, he suppressed the discomfort in his heart and made a lie for Mu Yunzhu. However, now that he had changed his mind, he did not care whether Mu Yunzhu would be scolded by Old Man Mu. If Old Man Mu could help her teach Mu Yunzhu a lesson, she would be more than happy.

Therefore, she pouted and said with an aggrieved expression on her face, "Uncle Mu, Yun Zhu has moved to the city center. Why didn't he let me know? Is it because I've been gone for so many years that his heart has drifted apart from me? "

Old Man Mu originally felt tender towards Bai Qi because of his good friend's dying request. However, when he saw Bai Qi's pitiful begging for comfort, his heart softened and he quickly consoled,

I will call him back to apologize to you later. You are his fiancee, how can he move without discussing with you? Today, when you came back, he did not go to pick you up.

In the past, Bai Qi had always wanted to be a good daughter-in-law. He knew that Old Man Mu doted on her, but she had never pampered him. She had always been gentle and courteous.

She had grown up in an orphanage and had received alms from people of all walks of life. Observing her appearance was her way of life, even if it wasn't accurate, she was still very accurate.

When she thought back to Old Man Mu's attitude toward Bai Qi in the information, combined with the current situation, she was almost certain that if she wrapped herself up as a weakling, she would be able to seek help and rely on him in front of Old Man. Instead, she would be able to get more support from him.

But at the same time, he also had to remember never to ever hope that his position in Old Man Mu's heart was higher than Mu Yunzhu's. Acting coquettishly to curry favor with his own son was one thing, if he wanted to slander his own son in front of his father, being too direct would only arouse disgust.

"Uncle Mu, don't scold Yun Zhu. He made the decision to move without discussing it with me. Perhaps he just thinks that it's a small matter. He's too busy working right now and can forget about it for a while. I'm just worried …" Bai Qi looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated. He lowered his head halfway and bit his lips, as if he was unable to say what he was about to say.

Hearing that Bai Qi was still trying to find an excuse for his son, Old Man Mu felt gratified in his heart. At the same time, he felt a little heartache for Bai Qi.

"Seventh little girl, if you have anything to worry about, just tell Uncle Mu. Don't worry, Uncle Mu will help you!"

Bai Qi raised his head and glanced at Old Man Mu before biting his lips. He seemed to be conflicted. Finally, as if he had made a firm decision, he timidly said,

"Uncle Mu, I just heard you say that Yun Zhu moved out with Shen Xiao. Although Shen Xiao was a servant introduced by me to the Mu family, she is still a young single woman. They have been living together under the same roof for a long time …" If there's anything out there that's not good... "Then …"

Deliberately not finishing his words and leaving enough imagination space for the other party, this was also a kind of art of language.

Although he didn't think that his son had such a sharp eye and that he would abandon such a beautiful fiancée like Bai Qi and end up with an ordinary maid, as Bai Qi had said, the most important thing for upper class was their reputation. If something bad had really come out of it, then it would be very hard to deal with them.

"Seventh Miss, you're right. A lone man and a single woman isn't appropriate. Later, I'll have my family's housekeeper bring Shen Xiao back. I assume Yun Zhu has no reason to oppose this."

Old Man Mu was thinking very well, but reality would definitely put him in a bad position.

Bai Qi snickered in his heart. If she remembered correctly, Mu Yunzhu and Shen Xiaoxiao already had a deeper relationship and were only hiding it from everyone. At this time, it was likely that Old Man Mu had suddenly asked to separate them.

Furthermore, if he knew that it was because of her that Old Man Mu had made such a decision, then he would have to find her immediately to settle the score.

What she wanted was for him to come knocking on her door of his own accord. At that time, she would naturally prepare a huge gift for him.

Having succeeded in burying a nail in Old Man Mu's heart, Bai Qi took his leave and returned home.

Just as her car stopped in front of the villa's entrance, a slim, elegant, middle-aged beauty walked out. Her face was very similar to Bai Qi and was filled with excitement. Even her bright eyes were shrouded in a layer of mist.

It was unknown whether or not he was affected by the original owner's emotions, but Bai Qi felt his eyes grow hot and his hand cover his face.

"Seventh Brother, you're back!" This simple sentence almost made Bai Qi cry.

She quickly went over and hugged her mother who was waiting for her at the door.

"Mom, I'm sorry. I'm back."

Her mother's death was a knot that Bai Qi could not let go of in his heart. While she was working hard for her love, she had completely neglected her one and only family member. Even when her mother had reached the end of her life, she did not know.

But even so, before her mother passed away, she was still concerned about her. The last words she said before she died were, "Seventh Madame, you must be happy. Only when you are free will you have a chance.

At that time, Bai Qi did not understand, and continued to persist in his love, but now that Bai Qi thought of these words again, his heart was filled with clarity. Perhaps his mother knew that his daughter's love was hopeless in the end, but she did not want her daughter to lose her last hope, so she could only silently warn her, hoping that there would come a day when she would understand. However, in the end, Bai Qi did understand, but his life had also ended.

The mother and daughter duo silently cried as they stood at the entrance. After a long while, the mother reached out and lightly patted Bai Qi's back. She pretended to be angry and said:

"You still know how to come back and say sorry? Why didn't you know when you left your mother and went to France alone!"

Although she was complaining, her mother still pulled Bai Qi into the room and ordered the servants in the house to serve the dishes as soon as they entered.

"Mom purposely stewed your favorite carp soup, which is the same color as your favorite milk."

As she spoke, her voice was choked with sobs. Her daughter clearly wasn't used to Western cuisine, but for the sake of Mu Yunzhu, she had stayed in France for such a long time. This person had lost a lot of weight.

"Mom, I want the soup to be covered with many green onions. It looks really nice." Bai Qi had never experienced the warmth of a mother's love, so he felt a little unnatural facing his mother. He purposefully laughed and changed the topic, not wanting to continue to incite any more feelings. Otherwise, he didn't know if she would reveal anything.

When they first met, because of the influence of the original owner, her emotions were a little too agitated, but Bai Qi quickly calmed down. After all, he was not the original owner, so some of his subconscious habits would be greatly different. Perhaps he could hide it from others, but it would be rather difficult to hide it from this loving mother.

Hearing his daughter say that she liked him, his mother pulled him into the dining room. She was extremely busy with food and clothing, and he understood her feelings. He smiled and let her busy herself without stopping.

After dinner, when the two of them were sitting in the living room, about to talk about their many years of parting, the doorbell rang.

The lady in white let the servant open the door doubtfully. Then, she spoke with an underestimation, "Who would come at this time?"

Indeed, it was only eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and very few people would choose this time to visit someone else.

The corner of Bai Qi's mouth twitched, revealing a mocking smile. Since the doorbell was pressed so urgently, this person must be Mu Yunzhu, the one who came to denounce him. From this, it could be seen that the old man had already spoken for Shen Xiaoxiao to return to the Mu residence.

Mu Yunzhu did not dare to disobey her father's orders. She could only vent her anger on the instigator. This time, she would probably reveal her trump card.

But... Hehe, she wouldn't give him a chance to lay his cards on the table. She wanted them to openly destroy the marriage contract in the name of true love! That would be letting them off too easily.

Bai Qi's wish was to let Mu Yunjiu have a taste of what he was looking for, and also let Shen Xiao receive the retribution she deserved. Why not let this pair of mandarin ducks not be a pair, in any case, Bai Qi's wish did not come from finding someone else to marry, so she would risk her life to drag them down and see who could drag who out.

As expected, the servant that entered the room was the unhappy Mu Yunzhu. When he saw his white mother, he only greeted her in a formal manner and did not soften his attitude because of the presence of his elders.

Bai Qi cursed silently in his heart. "You disrespectful scum! Do you really think that just because Bai Qi likes you, you can be so rampant in the Bai Clan!?"

Although her mother was dissatisfied with Mu Yunzhu's frivolous attitude, when she thought of how her daughter wholeheartedly adored him, she could only swallow her anger and greet him with a smile.

"Oh, it's Yun Zhu. Why are you here at this time? Did you come to see her after finding out that Qi Qi Qi had returned?" Moreover, his daughter had already been at home for so long, and he just arrived late. To say that he had his own daughter in his heart, no one would believe him, but he couldn't bear to have his own daughter like him. Sigh …

"Auntie Bai, can I talk to Qi Qi Qi alone for a while?"

There was no courtesy in saying such straightforward words. The White Mother could not help but frown.

"Mom, I've just come back and haven't had a bath. It's been a long journey, so it feels really bad. Go upstairs and help me store some water. I'll be able to wash up soon." Bai Qi hugged his mother's arm and acted like a spoiled child. A sweet smile appeared on his charming face that his mother could not bear to refuse.

Her mother pointed at her daughter's forehead and could only helplessly say, "You!" Then he turned his head to the side and glanced at Mu Yunzhu. "Yunzhu, 77% has just returned. If there's anything important to say, say it. Do you understand?"
