"What are you thinking? "So engrossed." Gu Tingxiao called Mu Li a few times but Mu Li didn't reply. It was unknown what he was thinking about.
When Mu Li heard Gu Tingxiao's voice, he reacted with an awkward smile, "Nothing."
"I'll go to the company first. I'll be back early." Mu Li watched Gu Tingxiao's retreating back and couldn't help feeling a little absent-minded.
She didn't have a stable job. Whenever she went to an interview, she would be rejected by the company. Although she knew who was interfering, Mu Li had no choice but to be slaughtered like a little lamb.
However, Gu TingChen was different. He was the head of the Gu family. Even if the Gu family was the one in charge right now, Gu Tingxiao would still be needed.
She and Gu Tingxiao were like clouds and mud.
It was almost noon, and Gu Tingxiao had finished all his work. He changed into a set of formal attire at the company and returned to the villa to pick up Mu Li.
He drove them to the Mu house.
"The door to their house has already been repaired." After getting off the car, Gu Ting Chen looked at the brand-new door.
"This is related to the Mu Clan's reputation, the Mu Clan will definitely not delay this matter." On this point, Mu Shaohua did very well.
The butler also heard the conversation outside and instantly became vigilant. He already had a shadow over this man and was really afraid that he would throw another bomb.
The butler did not think too much and immediately ran out, "Second Miss, Young Master, you've all returned. The old man is waiting for you inside. Hurry and enter."
This time, the butler's attitude was very gentle. Compared to last time, it was as if they were two different people.
The two of them ignored him and Mu Li pushed Gu Tingxiao into the villa, step by step, under the steward's gaze.
"The Gu family's second young master has such a grand style. Our family has been waiting here for you for such a long time. The old gramps has already called you in advance. Why are you waiting so long to come back?"
Su Yanli was displeased to see Gu Tingxiao and Mu Li return so late. They had so many elders waiting for their juniors, she felt that they really had the nerve to do so.
"Xiao Li and I were only worried that we would be rejected at the door when we come again. After all, the two of us are people who want face as well." Gu Tingxiao's tone was neither cold nor hot as he once again mentioned the last time he was rejected. This would once again arouse the displeasure of Mu Mingxiang.
"I was the one who told the two of them to come back later. Don't be in such a hurry, don't argue. The family has become like a battlefield." Mu Yong didn't want to talk about the past anymore. It was a disgrace to his Mu Clan, so he just let it be. If it wasn't mentioned, he wouldn't mention it anymore.
Gu Tingxiao pulled Mu Li's hand and Mu Li placed everything he was holding onto the tea table. "Grandfather, after you've returned, I haven't come to take a good look at you. I've brought some tonic for you this time, I hope you can accept it happily."
The gift wasn't expensive, what was important was the heart. Mu Li had been kicked out for so many years, yet he was still able to greet her with a smile regardless of past animosity. This proved that Mu Li was an extremely magnanimous girl.
"You're quite thoughtful. Come, sit down." A few short words, however, proved his tacit approval of Mu Li.
However, Mu Yan's face was full of disdain as she looked at the cheap food and ridiculed, "You actually dare to give such a cheap thing to grandpa to eat? Aren't you afraid that the food will be broken? Only someone with your identity would be interested in these things. "
Mu Li wasn't angry, and instead laughed as he sat next to Mu Yan. "Elder sister is right, but I haven't been able to find a proper job for all these years, so it's already not bad enough for me to be able to save up some money to buy Grandfather so many things. I hope that grandfather won't blame me for these things.
Hearing that, Mu Ying-jao could not help but be a bit surprised: "How could there be no job? I remember that you graduated from a prestigious university and have not had a proper job until now? "
Mu Yong's questioning caused a trace of panic in Mu Yan's heart. Mu Li's inability to find a job was entirely due to her. If her grandfather were to continue investigating, he might drag her into the matter as well.
Mu Yan forced a smile on her face and interrupted again, "Grandfather, you know Mu Li. She always took care of her mother. How could she have the time to go to work? It's already good enough for her to do some odd jobs."
Mu Li raised his eyes and didn't argue with this woman. There were some things that couldn't be rushed for a while, and had to be done step by step.
Mu Li lowered his head in shame. "That's right, big sister is right. I have my mother to take care of, so I don't have time to work."
"I presume that my younger sister has already married Gu Tingxiao. As the second young mistress of the Gu family, she won't have to worry about food and clothing in the future, so there's no need for me to look for a job."
Mu Li ridiculed with a face full of mockery, along with Gu Tingxiao.
Mu Li's brows tightened when he heard this. It was one thing for this woman to call him that, but she actually brought Gu Tingxiao along with her and spoke with displeasure. "Elder sister's words are wrong. I am me, and Gu Tingchen is Gu Tingxiao. I can't possibly spend all of the Gu family's money just because I married Gu Tingxiao. Even though I am a woman, I am also a woman with dignity. I can't possibly lose face for the Mu family because of some money, grandfather, can I? "
Mu Li changed the topic to Mu Ming. Her grandfather admired talented people the most, so he would definitely agree with Mu Li's words.
Mu Shaohua didn't wait for Mu Ying-ming to speak before saying, "Dad, since Xiao Li has yet to find a job, why not let her work at our Mu Family. Xiao Li is a graduate from a famous university, so he should have some social experience in the past few years. It's fine for her to come to the company to help."
This woman changed very quickly. Rather than letting her grow up somewhere else, it was better to keep watch under his nose. He wanted to see what ability this woman had to be able to repeatedly humiliate his family like that.
"There's no need. The Gu family will naturally have my wife's seat, so you don't need to waste any more time." Mu Fukai also agreed with Mu Shaohua's suggestion, but he did not expect Gu Tingxiao to interrupt him before he could speak.
Mu Li turned his head to look at Gu Tingxiao. When did he find himself a job? Why didn't she get any news at all?
Mu Rong's gaze shifted to Gu Tingxiao. He couldn't even protect himself now, how could he arrange for Mu Li to join the company?
"Are you sure that Mu Li has already been placed in the company?" Mu Yong asked with uncertainty. It would be the best if he could get into the Gu family's company.
