98 Holding An Umbrella For Someone Else
Liu Ming couldn’t help but ask, “Young Master, why don’t you tell Young Madam about it so that you don’t go your own way? As the saying goes, a married couple with the same mind can cut through gold!”
Mu Ci shook her head. “It’s not the time yet. Bei Shuo is innocent. If she finds out, she’ll probably show her emotions in front of others. It’ll alert the enemy and bring her unnecessary trouble.”
“But Young Madam didn’t tell you that she suspects that there’s something wrong with Dr. Li. It’s not a good idea for her to continue investigating on her own!” Liu Ming thought to himself, Aren’t you afraid that she’ll alert the enemy?
Mu Ci sighed softly. “She must be suspecting my family. She didn’t want me to be sad, so she took the initiative to investigate. If one day, she really finds out who the real culprit is and if that person is my family, I think she might not be willing to tell me. She will only silently resolve the danger around me. Just like this time, she didn’t ask a word and only tried her best to cure my poison.”
Liu Ming nodded and finally understood.
“Young Madam is pure and kind,” he lamented.
“Only people who have been drenched in the rain would think of holding an umbrella for others. The Bei Family hurt her deeply, but she didn’t say anything and attributed everything to her returning the Bei Family’s kindness. Her master taught her very well,” Mu Ci muttered.
“So, Young Madam doesn’t want you to be hurt by your family. Even if it’s true, she still wants to help you. Sigh! Young Madam, you’ve really put in a lot of effort.” Liu Ming was getting more and more respectful of this lady.
“Have you found out Luo Bing’s identity?” Mu Ci changed the topic.
Liu Ming frowned. “Director Luo’s information is so proper that there’s no problem. There’s nothing unusual.”
Mu Ci shook his head. “His identity is definitely not that simple.”
“We’ve been working with them for a few years, but nothing has gone wrong. Director Luo and Young Master Chen Hai are schoolmates in university. Although Young Master Chen Hai looks unreliable, he’s still very responsible. Young Master, what are you worried about?”
Mu Ci shook his head. “I’m not worried about business. As you said, nothing has gone wrong for so many years, so there’s naturally no problem. Business transactions and cooperation are for the sake of making money. As long as the goals are the same, nothing else is that important. It doesn’t matter if he has his own reasons to hide his identity.”
“However, he actually dared to talk to me about compensation for Bei Shuo. It’s obvious that he has an extraordinary background. Such a person has always been by our side, but we didn’t notice him. Don’t you think it’s scary?”
Liu Ming pursed his lips and his expression turned serious.
Mu Ci said, “Let’s not think too much about it. He asked Bei Shuo and me to meet his family this weekend. The answer will be revealed then.”
Liu Ming hesitated for a moment. “Young Master, it’s Matriarch Shen’s birthday this weekend. As it’s not her grand birthday celebration, only our families received the invitation. You should go to the Shen Family with Old Master to celebrate her birthday.”
Mu Ci smiled. “Give this opportunity to Mu En. I’ll tell Grandpa. No matter what Grandpa says, we have to withdraw from important events in the future. We can’t become the target of everyone. Uncle Liu, I have Bei Shuo now. I don’t want to make unnecessary sacrifices anymore.”
Liu Ming was speechless.
Mu Ci stretched lazily. “Uncle Liu, I want to live a good life. I want to accompany Bei Shuo and live a good life. I don’t want to live like before. God sent Bei Shuo to me and made up for all the hardships I had in the past. Now, I just want to live a good life.”
Liu Ming felt that his eyes were a little warm. He choked and said, “Young Master, nothing is more important than living well!”
Mu Ci nodded. “Yes, living well is the most important. So, I have to get rid of those people and things that don’t want me to live.”
Things in the world were always difficult to achieve, right?
In the past, Mu Ci had nothing to live for. He was like a black hole that absorbed negative energy and fought mercilessly with those who wanted his life. He did not care about anything. His future was dark. In the end, he was disheartened by the repeated harm from his family and stopped struggling. He allowed those persecution methods to invade him. When he knew that he only had half a year to live, he actually smiled as if he had been relieved of a burden.
Unexpectedly, the heavens took pity on him and pushed Bei Shuo to his side in a ridiculous manner. It was like a beam of light shining into Mu Ci’s life that had completely darkened, pulling the dying Mu Ci up.
She actually did not allow him to die.
