Pure and Virtuous Woman: The main room kills the alliance
Chapter 55: Just waiting for the heart
After being notified, Yan Zhengqing and Zhang Rou were standing on the stairs, his disgusted eyes glanced at Yan Qingruo, and when he saw Chu Mu, he immediately changed into a flattering face.
"Young Master Chu, why didn't you say something in advance when you came?"
Yan Zhengqing shook off Zhang Rou's hand, walked down the stairs with kind eyes, and then came to Chu Mu's side, his old face looked very flattering.
Chu Mu remained unmoved, as if he hadn't heard his words, and kept his gaze fixed on Yan Qingruo who was kneeling on the ground.
Seeing that Chu Mu didn't answer, Yan Zhengqing coughed dryly, followed his gaze to see Yan Qingruo who was kneeling on the ground, and had to bring the topic to her.
"Young Master Chu, you don't know that this unfilial girl actually beat her sister up. It really chills me to see that, and that's why I punished her like this."
Seeing this, Zhang Rou standing behind immediately pulled Aunt Jin who was busy beside her and said, "Sister-in-law Jin, please go and invite the eldest lady downstairs."
Chu Mu's gaze finally moved away from Yan Qingruo's face, but he looked at Yan Zhengqing suspiciously, as if he was very interested in what happened.
"Father-in-law, you must have misunderstood something. My family Ruoruo will never engage in brotherly killing."
Li Shaolin supported Yan Qingruo with a sense of justice, and when his eyes fell on her pale face, a hint of distress flashed in his eyes, and he continued to speak on his own.
"Even if Ruoruo really did something wrong, you can't treat her like this. Leaving aside the fact that she is your daughter, what you are doing is corporal punishment, which is against humanitarianism!"
Yan Zhengqing snorted coldly, he looked down on Li Shaolin from the bottom of his heart, put his hands behind his back, looked past him, and slightly raised his head contemptuously.
"It's not your turn to talk here, don't call me father-in-law, I don't have a son-in-law who is a gangster!"
Li Shaolin's face turned red after being choked by Yan Zhengqing's meal. She wanted to refute his words, but Yan Qingruo stretched out her hand and shook his hand firmly, telling him not to speak for her.
Chu Mu, who happened to be standing aside, had a panoramic view of this scene, and the palms hanging leisurely by his side involuntarily clenched into fists.
"Let's go."
Emotionless words rang out in the silent living room, and everyone couldn't help but look at the speaker. After seeing clearly that it was Chu Mu, they became even more confused about what he meant by saying this.
"Don't eat during meal time, choose to watch the weak here?"
Knowing that everyone's eyes were on him, but he didn't raise his head to look at them, instead he spoke slowly.
Yan Zhengqing was dumbfounded, he looked uncertainly at Yan Qingruo who was kneeling on the ground, and then at Chu Mu who had already looked indifferent, "Then, me..."
"Those who do wrong things will definitely be punished, otherwise what would the law do in this world?"
Chu Mu smiled politely, and instead of keeping his eyes on Yan Qingruo, he looked at Yan Zhengqing with doubts, as if he couldn't figure out what he wanted to do.
When Li Shaolin heard this sentence, he wanted to rush forward. All the previous expressions must have been faked, otherwise he wouldn't have treated her like this.
Before he had time to stand up, he was grabbed by Yan Qingruo, Li Shaolin looked at her very puzzled, and she shook her head slowly, telling him to be calm.
Li Shaolin who still wanted to refute had no choice but to give up silence and squat aside, choosing to ignore all this.
Sensing the gaze begging her for mercy from not far away, Yan Qingruo glared back at him unhappily, and it was fine if Chu Mu didn't help her, but she actually added fuel to the fire!
Chu Mu withdrew his gaze, and left without another word, under Yan Zhengqing's guidance.
Because Yan Zhixin, who had spent half a day covering up the scar on her face, had just come downstairs, Chu Mu and Yan Zhengqing had already taken their seats. Between beauty and pity, Yan Zhixin decisively chose beauty.
In the huge living room, Yan Qingruo was kneeling beside the sofa, not far from the dining room.
No matter who has any movement at such a short distance, everyone can see it at a glance, especially Chu Mu's position, which is just damn right in the direction of Yan Qingruo.
"Mu, you're finally willing to see me. You didn't answer my calls after the last reception, making me think you're still mad at me."
Yan Zhixin sat beside Chu Mu and looked at him coquettishly, her eyes swept over Yan Qingruo behind the glass window from time to time.
Chu Mu's eyes swept over Yan Qingruo who was in the distance, she was whispering to Li Shaolin who was kneeling with her, a burst of annoyed light shot out from his eyes, he turned his head and glanced at the smiling Yan Zhixin.
"What did you do wrong?"
It was just a simple question, but it made the hands of those present holding the chopsticks tense.
Yan Zhixin even had a flattering smile on her face, not daring to look directly at him, she gave him a chopstick of vegetables with a dry smile to cover up the embarrassment on her face.
"I'm afraid that I made a mistake accidentally. If there is anything about me that makes you unhappy, you must tell me, and I will definitely change it."
She was very serious when she said this, as if he could make a huge change with just one word.
Zhang Rou on the side also helped with Tai Chi, and looked at Chu Mu with a smile, "Yes, Xin'er has been our treasure since childhood. If it makes you unhappy there, I hope you can be more tolerant."
"It's okay, girls are very precious, this is what my mother taught me."
Chu Mu nodded and said all the words very righteously, making everyone present look at each other in unison.
Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Yan Zhixin, who was a little nervous, put her arm on Chu Mu's, and the happiness on her face became more and more blissful, as if they were a newlywed couple.
Chu Mu tried hard to hide the impatience in his eyes, and pushed her hand away with the help of vegetables, but his eyes swept over her fingers, and then he said slowly, "Where's your ring?"
With a guilty conscience, Yan Zhixin withdrew her hand, and subconsciously lowered her head, not daring to look at them.
"I've put away the ring. This is the first ring you gave me. Naturally, I have to put it away properly."
"Well, although the ring is said to be a family heirloom of the Chu family, it is only passed on to the daughter-in-law-to-be. But it's not that important, so it won't be shelved."
Chu Mu smiled lightly, and said the word "heirloom" in a tone as ordinary as talking about what to eat at night.
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people at the banquet were covered with shock, and they felt very incredible.
Yan Zhixin's complexion immediately became ugly, she clenched her hands tightly, wishing she could pick out a flower, and after a while she raised her head with a smile.
"Oh, I didn't expect Mu to give me such an important thing. I was really blind before. I will definitely wear it next time."
Yan Zhixin said with a clever smile, crow's feet almost appeared at the corners of her eyes, but she didn't dare to look directly at him, for fear of saying something she shouldn't say if she got nervous.
"Well, if you think it's precious, wait until you get engaged to wear it."
The tone was still flat, but the chopsticks that Yan Zhixin had just picked up fell to the ground in fright. The happiness came so suddenly, the corners of Yan Zhixin's eyes overflowed with tears.
"Really? Mu, do you mean we're going to get engaged soon?"
Yan Zhixin was so excited that she couldn't control herself, she subconsciously stretched out her hand to grab his strong wrist, trembling nervously because of her happiness.
To make sure it wasn't a dream, she turned her head to face Zhang Rou and Yan Zhengqing who were also crying with joy.
"Mom and Dad, did you hear that? We're getting engaged soon!"
Zhang Rou smiled wrinkledly and nodded, Yan Zhengqing was usually used to keeping a straight face, but at this moment, he showed a rare smile with relief.
"Isn't engagement something that was agreed before?"
Chu Mu asked this sentence with a blank face, as if he couldn't get the reason why they were so happy.
"Tch, what's there to be happy about."
Yan Qingruo, who was kneeling in the living room, muttered softly, and she raised her head slightly, unexpectedly, she was facing Chu Mu's deep gaze on her, and his eyes met, his eyes looked aggressive, as if he could see through her.
"There's really nothing to be happy about, after all, she no longer has the Chu family's ancestral ring."
Sitting next to her, Li Shaolin spoke with a disdainful expression, but his eyes flashed with amusement, as if he couldn't help laughing when he thought of the interesting things that would happen later.
After Chu Mu looked away, a gloomy cold light suddenly appeared in his indifferent eyes, which made Yan Qingruo, who was kneeling on the ground, feel numb in her back.
"Shh, let's just watch a good show, don't interrupt."
Li Shaolin didn't notice the sharp cold light at all, but remembered why she was kneeling here, and reminded her carefully.
Yan Qingruo rolled his eyes at him, a look of disdain flashed across his face, and then looked him up and down seriously, as if he didn't really believe that this was what he could say.
"Hey, did Li Shao change his gender? Are you still worried about something that doesn't exist?"
"Aren't I afraid that your family will take anger at you again? Seeing you kneeling here makes my heart ache! Pity my little heart."
As he said that, Li Shaolin looked at her from the beginning to the end, and indicated that she was already in a miserable situation, and if it continued to be miserable, he would not be able to deal with Nuoxuo.
"I don't have a family like that."
Yan Qingruo glanced at the harmonious family at the dining table, with a sneer at the corner of her mouth, she had no desire for family affection at all.
At the dining table, Yan Zhixin looked wantonly at Zhang Ruan and Yan Zhengqing opposite, the pride on her face was hard to ignore.
Zhang Rou was happy with tears in his eyes, but Yan Zhengqing was experienced and thoughtful, he hid his smile from the corners of his lips and eyebrows, cleared his throat and looked at him like an elder.
"I don't know what requirements the Chu family has for the engagement banquet?"
Yan Zhixin also looked at Chu Mu with hope in her eyes, wanting to get the answer she most wanted to hear from him.
Chu Mu looked at Yan Zhengqing with some annoyance in his eyes. He wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and looked at them with a gentle face, "The Chu family has already arranged everything, just waiting for Xin'er."
The word "Xin'er" made Yan Zhixin very happy, she had already forgotten all the things she was worried about before, and she didn't even remember to provoke Yan Qingruo.
"Young Master Chu, why didn't you say something in advance when you came?"
Yan Zhengqing shook off Zhang Rou's hand, walked down the stairs with kind eyes, and then came to Chu Mu's side, his old face looked very flattering.
Chu Mu remained unmoved, as if he hadn't heard his words, and kept his gaze fixed on Yan Qingruo who was kneeling on the ground.
