Mu Yun carried a cup of water upstairs as old president held his heart and sighed, thinking about how glorious his life was. In the end, not a single person admitted to it.
"Uncle, did my brother make you angry again?" Mu Yun asked in concern.
"Don’t mention him." old president looked depressed: "Xiao Yun, are you used to staying abroad?"
"Fortunately, uncle has arranged everything for me. I have no worries for you. You are sick now, but I can’t come back in time to take care of you. I feel very sorry for this." Mu Yun said with a face full of self-blame.
"Little Yun, I promised your father that I would properly nurture you two siblings. You’ve really saved your big brother a lot of trouble." old president’s mood improved a lot when he saw Mu Yun. It made him think of his own daughter and granddaughter that were far away from home.
"Uncle, isn’t sister back yet?" Mu Yun Dai asked.
"I didn’t inform her. Forget it, we have nothing to say when she returns, so we won’t let her return." old president and her daughter were once in a bad mood because of the death of their wife. Their father and daughter relationship did not get along well, and this was also the most heartbreaking thing in old president.
"Uncle, I’ve applied for a long leave of absence. I will always accompany you." Mu Yun said in a low voice.
"Alright, Little Yun, you’ve grown up. Have you become a boyfriend?" old president was very pleased and asked her in concern.
"Nope." Mu Yun looked embarrassed.
"What type do you like?" Uncle will help you find it. " The old president asked with a smile.
"No need, Uncle, don’t worry about me. I’m not considering having a boyfriend right now, but my family is more important." Mu Yun was a well-behaved girl. Since she was young, she had made people worry so much that she would never randomly make friends with anyone.
"Sigh, a woman should be married off. If you meet a good one, don’t let it slip by you." When the old president thought that he did not have the chance to attend their wedding, he could not help but feel sorrowful.
Mu Yun nodded. "I understand."
As night fell, a train arrived in a very private restaurant.
Under the protection of the bodyguards, Ling Mofeng quickly walked into a nearby door.
After turning a corner, Ling Mofeng saw the door of the private room was opened. Ling Mofeng smiled and walked in.
"Every time we meet, we have to sneak around as if we were stealing people." Because he had been stationed in the border area all year round, his skin was the healthy color of wheat, unlike Ling Mofeng’s handsome face which had a noble air to it, his stature was perfect, his physique was sturdy and strong, and if a normal person saw him, they would feel a kind of oppressing aura.
"Wen Cheng, I’m sorry to ask you out at this time." Ling Mofeng walked behind him and whispered.
"Inviting me here wouldn’t just be a simple treat, right?" Mu Weicheng stood up and looked him in the eye. The two of them had the same physique, one was wild, one was elegant and the other was noble. They had completely different temperaments, but both of them were intimidating.
"I heard that you took the initiative to apply for suspension." Ling Mofeng looked at his good friend and sighed softly, "Actually, this isn’t your fault. You don’t have to do this."
It has already been four years, and I haven’t had a proper rest. Just take it as if I’m begging you, sign it and let me relax once. I promise that after this, I’ll definitely work for you. Before he could sign the application form for Mu Weicheng, he was stuck in Ling Mofeng’s office. Ling Mofeng didn’t want him to leave his current position, not only that, he also wanted to promote him, but Mu Weicheng stubbornly requested for him to do so.
"If you think it through, of course I will sign it. You should know what to do with your uncle." Ling Mofeng pulled out a chair and sat down. He poured a cup of tea for himself and handed it over to Mu Weicheng.
"I already knew in my heart that two years ago, I knew he would make a mistake, but I didn’t expect him to make such a serious mistake. Mo Feng, I should thank you for your mercy." Mu Weicheng lowered his head to mock himself. The tea he drank was bitter.
"How is your uncle? After the election, his accounts will still have to be settled. You have to be prepared. " Ling Mofeng sipped a mouthful of tea with his thin lips. He looked at his friend with his clear eyes and saw that his expression froze.
"I know." Mu Weicheng’s tone was sad. He held the cup tightly, almost crushing the cup as he said, "I know."
"He wants to push you to my seat. Do you want to think about it?" Ling Mofeng was silent for a moment and then asked him.
"No need to think about it. Even if I’m interested in your position, I wouldn’t choose to sit on it at this time. It’s not like I won’t have a chance in the future." Mu Weicheng laughed at himself.
"If you can think like this, it’s safe. Indeed, if you sit in this position now, you will become the target of everyone’s attacks. Your uncle will also implicate you, so avoiding you is the best option." Ling Mofeng felt that his friend had thought it through very carefully. There was always a chance, but he needed to seize the opportunity.
"Alright, let’s not talk about official matters. I have a headache, let’s talk about personal matters. Last time you were engaged, did you receive my congratulatory gift?" Are you satisfied? " Mu Weicheng only wants to be idle right now, to talk about mundane things and not participate in political battles.
"I’m very satisfied. I wonder where you found such a beautiful stone. Is it jade?"
"I dug it. I dug it myself with a shovel. Of course it’s jade. It’s very precious." Mu Weicheng looked proud.
"That is truly too precious. I will definitely cherish it, just like our friendship." Ling Mofeng chuckled and looked serious.
"Oh right, if you mention this, I have something to discuss with you carefully." Mu Weicheng suddenly had a serious expression.
Ling Mofeng was stu
ed: "What? "So cautious?"
"After this meal, I may not accept your invitation in the future. My uncle is very disappointed with me, and I have promised him that I will keep my word if I don’t have any relationship with the Ling Family in the future." Mu Weicheng smiled bitterly when he mentioned this.
"I understand. Your uncle hates me." Although Ling Mofeng was surprised, he felt that it was natural.
"Aren’t you angry?" Surprise flashed across Mu Weicheng Jun’s face.
"No, your uncle has done you a favor, you should also honor him." Ling Mofeng didn’t get angry, he only felt that he had been left behind.
"We can still chat on official matters in the future, so we might as well avoid meeting each other in private." Mu Weicheng said with a wry smile.
"Alright, it’s good that you’ve made your decision." Ling Mofeng smiled gently.
The dishes were served one at a time. The two men chatted as they ate. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
At first, he wanted to return to the Vice President Mansion, but he just happened to see the road that the car was driving past, ten minutes more and he would be home. Thinking back to when he was not back for a while, he made the driver turn around and headed towards his home.
When he arrived at the Ling family mansion, he had just gotten off the car when Ling Nua
uan ran over to him happily, "Big brother, I was just making a bet with grandpa and said that you would be back today. Grandfather didn’t believe me and said that I won, so I had to ask him for a present."
"Warm, how can you bet with grandpa?" Ling Mofeng was speechless.
"Grandpa wants to bet with me, I didn’t force him." Ling Nua
uan had an aggrieved expression on her face. Ling Mofeng smiled and gently touched his sister’s head: "Okay, I will go upstairs to see grandpa."
"Brother, why did you come back?" You have just gotten engaged, so you can’t just ignore your sister-in-law. " Ling Nua
uan asked curiously.
"I just had a meal with Mu Weicheng and came back on the way." As Ling Mofeng said this, he quickly walked upstairs.
Ling Nua
uan looked like a fool as she stood in the living room. She bit her finger gently and muttered, "Mu Weicheng? He’s back? "
Ling Nua
uan seemed to have lost her soul. When she finally reacted, Ling Mofeng had already gone upstairs.
"Damn Mu Weicheng, you want to classify me as someone who refuses to go in and out? You don’t even have a door." Ling Nua
uan immediately stomped her foot in anger. It was unknown whether she was embarrassed or angry, but her face was slightly flushed.
Ling Mofeng went upstairs and saw the old man sitting by the window reading alone. He called out in a low voice, "Grandpa, I’m back."
When Old Master Ling saw him, his eyes immediately widened. "Why are you back today? That little girl must be really cocky. "
Ling Mofeng couldn’t help but laugh when he saw his grandpa becoming more and more like a child. "Warm up just now said that I made a bet with you. She’s getting more and more out of hand."
"It’s alright, we grandfathers and grandsons are always so bored. Unlike you, we are always busy in the office, working in the dark and living a fulfilling life." Old Master Ling immediately raised her hand, indicating that she couldn’t blame her granddaughter for being mischievous.
Ling Mofeng sat beside them and shook his head with a chuckle: "It’s good that you guys are up to nothing."
