Mr. Mu went to take a stroll at the Mining University today, and before he knew it, it was time to eat. Not wanting to return to the hotel to eat, he followed a recommendation to this snack street. After walking down most of the street, he spotted this shop that seemed fairly clean and walked in.
He never expected to run into his own son.
At first, he didn’t notice. But Mu Siwu’s gaze was too intense, and it was filled with overwhelming emotions, which finally caught his attention.
To his surprise, it turned out to be his own son. At that moment, he felt a surge of joy. But as soon as he remembered that his son was not fond of him, and saw the disdain and hatred in his eyes, that joy was quickly suppressed.
He pretended to glance nonchalantly at their table and not only saw Mu Siwu’s wife, his daughter-in-law, but also a woman with her back to him holding a child.
Mr. Mu thought that must be his granddaughter-in-law Jiang Xue and great-grandson. Seeing Jiang Xue and the child, Mr. Mu felt somewhat emotional. Originally, he had planned to wait for news from Qian Cheng, hoping he could meet Jiang Xue and the child once.
It was unexpected to meet them here out of sheer chance, truly a stroke of fate.
Thinking this, Mr. Mu wanted to get closer to them to see Jiang Xue and the child more clearly. So when Lin Zian suggested getting a private room, he directly refused, saying, "Let’s eat outside, right next to their table."
Mr. Mu pointed to an empty table next to Jiang Xue’s and strode forward. Lin Zian was a bit taken aback but didn’t say much and followed behind Mr. Mu towards the empty table.
As they walked, he was thinking, the old man usually liked quiet, so why did he want to eat in the main hall today?
It wasn’t until they approached Jiang Xue’s table and saw Mu Siwu that he understood.
Jiang Xue noticed that her father-in-law was visibly unsettled by Mr. Mu’s presence and couldn’t help but ask with concern, "Dad, do you know that person?"
"No, I don’t!" Mu Siwu denied directly, and Jiang Xue didn’t press further. However, she knew in her heart that Mu Siwu definitely knew that old man.
It’s just that Mu Siwu didn’t want to say, and she wouldn’t ask more.
Jiang Xue didn’t ask again and started feeding a small bowl of corn porridge to Little Reunion. Although he drank bamboo marrow every day and was hardly hungry, Jiang Xue still felt it was necessary to give him some supplementary food.
He couldn’t possibly continue eating only bamboo marrow forever.
As she fed him, she sensed someone passing by her side, and noticing that her father-in-law seemed very tense, she couldn’t help but become curious again and looked up.
She saw Mr. Mu’s profile. On seeing it, she was slightly stunned. She suddenly felt that Mr. Mu’s profile resembled her father-in-law’s somewhat.
Just as she was wondering if there was a connection between the two, she heard the person behind the old man excitedly shout to her father-in-law, "Eldest Young Master!"
The words "Eldest Young Master" not only shocked Jiang Xue but also left Bai Yuhua dumbfounded. She stared at Lin Zian for a long time without reacting. Read full story at nοvelfire.net
She felt she must have misheard. How could her old partner be the "Eldest Young Master" someone was talking about? Although she hadn’t had much schooling and wasn’t highly educated, she knew that the title "Eldest Young Master" was reserved for those from wealthy and powerful families.
