"A girlfriend? My brother?" Mu Wanxin reacted as if she had heard the funniest joke ever: "Grandpa, who did you hear that from?"
"Doesn’t matter who I heard it from. Do you know about this or not?" Old Man Mu asked with a hint of seriousness.
Mu Wanxin shook her head: "No idea. Besides, I’d really like to know, which girl is so blind to take a fancy to my brother, that ice block."
Then she thought of something: "Could it be the little girl from the Lin Family? That little girl has been chasing after my brother for over ten years now. What? Is the iron tree going to bloom?"
"Not that girl. Today, Old Man Lin called me, talked about the marriage of the two, urged me to settle the matter by the Spring Festival. His words were loaded with meaning, saying he was worried Xingfeng might be swayed by a young girl. But after all these years, when has he ever been worried about that?" That old fox, probably knows something.
Mu Wanxin slapped her thigh: "That’s easy to find out. Just call my brother and ask, right?"
With that, she decisively picked up the phone and called Mu Xingfeng.
The call connected, and Mu Wanxin spoke first: "Hey, Xingfeng, are you coming back to Imperial City for the holidays?"
On the other end, Mu Xingfeng’s deep, calm voice sounded: "No."
"No? What are you doing in Nan’an for such a long holiday? You should come back. By the way, your big sis has a few events these days, she could introduce you to some girls." Mu Wanxin said flippantly.
"If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up," his voice remained indifferent, showing no emotional fluctuation.
Mu Wanxin quickly responded: "Hey, hey, hey, don’t hang up, I’m not done yet."
"If it’s nonsense, don’t say it."
Damn, Mu Wanxin cursed inwardly, who said her brother was looking for a girlfriend? Come, I promise I won’t beat you to death. With this attitude, who could he possibly find as a girlfriend? How blind does the girl have to be?
Though thinking this, she kept her composure and asked patiently: "Xingfeng, are you refusing your big sis because you already have a girl you like?"
After asking, there was a moment of silence from the other end. Mu Wanxin thought Xingfeng had hung up and was about to swear, when she heard that deep, magnetic voice say: "Yes."
Mu Wanxin was instantly bewildered. What did she just hear? Did her brother just admit it? Her brother has a girl he likes? Mu Wanxin nearly cried tears of joy, looking at Old Mr. Mu with teary eyes.
The call was on speaker, so Old Mr. Mu naturally heard the "yes" too. Almost trembling, he asked: "Whose girl is she? Do we know her? When are you bringing her back for Grandpa to meet?"
"She’s still young." Mu Xingfeng replied.
"Still young? What do you mean young? You’re not young anymore, you brat. Grandpa is waiting to meet his great-grandchild." Old Mr. Mu became displeased at being refused.
Mu Wanxin quickly soothed grandpa while asking: "Little brother, are you still in the crush phase, haven’t confessed to the girl yet? If that’s the case, just tell me, your big sis will teach you."
Thinking of Mu Xingfeng’s perpetually stern face and his military-style talking manner... Mu Wanxin really doubted if he could manage a relationship. He can’t just order the girl to date him, right?
Gotta say, Sister Mu, you nailed it.
On the other end, Mu Xingfeng’s voice remained calm and emotionless: "Don’t worry about this matter."
