Chapter 294

Chapter 294

Hi, everybody. I have recently started a new novel called I’ll Become a Villainess That Will Go Down in History. You can read it HERE.

“It was Dad who was wrong; I was prejudiced against you and I admit that it was my fault.”

“Are you not worried about the marriage contract with the Shen family?”

“The Shen family will definitely be angry, but my daughter is the most important, right? Come home first, and we will take care of this matter slowly.”

Xu Xinduo still shook her head, “I will decide based on the results of the way you handle these matters.”

Father Mu’s expression was unnatural for a moment before his smile returned and said, “That’s alright as well. Are you living well in the Tong house?”

“Mmhm.”

“Well, you were probably destined to be able to converse with Mrs. Tong. Cherish the love of the seniors towards you and be polite in the Tong house…”

“You don’t need to tell me these.”

“Okay, then I will take my leave now. I will contact you next time.”

Father Mu really left after speaking and didn’t entangle himself with her matters any more.

Xu Xinduo felt that things were strange the entire time. Her disgust with Father Mu was so extreme that she was unwilling to accept his apologies easily. Moreover, her gut feeling was telling her that he must have had other ideas.

She couldn’t put a finger on the feeling, but she felt that the small smile of Father Mu was rather uneasy.

After Father Mu left, he got into the car and couldn’t help but hit the steering wheel as he sat down.

This Xu Xinduo is really shameless. If I’m speaking to her that nicely, why couldn’t she take the hint to speak politely too?

I don’t know how she managed to crawl her way into the Tong house, but once she did, she’s acting all high and mighty now? A wolf pretending to have the demeanour of a tiger(1); what a despicable dog!

(T/N: The phrase meant that someone was trying to be a persona that they weren’t, mostly talking about someone who rose to power and misusing it)

If it wasn’t a last resort, he wouldn’t be willing to lower his status to look for this girl. He was originally waiting for the brat to return home; in the end, he had to go look for her?

He couldn’t help but let out a ‘tsk’. He chatted with the old lady for the entire day and didn’t seem to find anything much to say about her— a typical old lady from the countryside that he never met before.

She spoke with a local accent and didn’t have that much of a demeanour. She didn’t seem to have any talents either— was Xu Xinduo self-taught?

He wouldn’t ever give a second look towards an old lady like that. In the company, he would probably pin her as a mere janitor.

First of all, he didn’t want to get a divorce. In the beginning, he was truly in love with Mother Mu. One must know that Mother Mu was a Goddess-level figure in their university. When he managed to pursue Mother Mu as a potential love interest, there were so many boys in the school that regarded him as an enemy. Up till today, he remembered the feeling of pride that lingered within him.

Both children also looked like her.

Over the years, Mother Mu was well-behaved and understandable enough. Although she didn’t help him much in the company, she was otherwise very decent. Mother Mu gradually had problems after Xu Xinduo came back.

He wanted to stabilize the situation first and then decide on this matter later.

At first, he was afraid that the Shen family would dislike Xu Xinduo, or that the sisterhood between Mu Qingyao and Xu Xinduo would be broken and the family’s atmosphere would be embarrassing and awkward. In his opinion, many would not accept a change in the daughter-in-law-candidate halfway through a contracted marriage.
