Chapter 797: Chapter 0797: Mu Yingting Makes a Request
Lin Zhennan now resembles a mad old dog, determined to kill anyone associated with Ye Xunhuan, irrespective of the nature of their relationship. In short, as long as one can speak with Ye and maintain an amicable relationship, the only path left is death!
He would never allow his opponent to live!
Moreover, Lin Zhennan had now joined hands with Mu Yingting from Shu Mountain and the Mu family from Jinmen.
Although the Mu family had begun to decline due to Ye Xunhuan’s interference, slipping down the slope with the sunset on the horizon, their alliance was still viable to stand against Ye Xunhuan since not much time had passed.
Besides, even if the Mu family from Jinmen was weakening, they were most certainly not something Pei Ximing could contend with!
At the same time, Lin Zhennan had completely calculated that if he could not kill Ye Xunhuan with a show of force, he would resort to a fight to the death.
If between him and Mu Yingting, one could be killed by Ye Xunhuan, then Ye would most definitely not escape death.
The Huaxia officials would absolutely not let him off the hook!
Lin Zhennan had thrown caution to the winds, or rather, it wasn’t just Lin Zhennan, but Mu Yingting had followed suit as well.
Of course, they wouldn’t let Su Guyan off the hook either, they planned on having Su Guyan die.
At this moment, Lin Zhennan was entirely calculating, waiting until all his preparations were in place. Then it would be time for him to make his move, delivering a thunderous strike to prevent Ye Xunhuan from coordinating at both ends!
Mu Yingting was also scheming at his end, but Mu Yingting planned to start with Su Guyan.
Moreover, Mu Yingting had already arrived in Jiangzhong City and had even visited Su Guyan’s company personally!
Since Su Guyan had relocated the Emperor Group to Jiangzhong City and announced the bankruptcy of her marriage with Mu Tiange, she had stopped paying attention to Jinmen affairs, let alone the Mu family.
Now, Su Guyan was sitting in her spacious office.
Su Guyan’s office was very large, exceeding one hundred square meters, half-circular in shape, with a curved perimeter of clean and thick floor-to-ceiling windows which allowed one to see the bustling view of Jiangzhong City easily and thin white curtains that fluttered with the breeze from the air conditioning.
The floor was carpeted, and several pots of verdant greenery were placed around the desk and in the corners, harmonizing with the office lighting.
The several bookshelves in the office were filled with all kinds of books, and beside them stood an office desk made of golden Phoebe wood, covered with stacks of documents, and there was also a laptop.
And Su Guyan was sitting at her desk at this moment.
With furrowed brows, Su Guyan sat at the desk; she had just received a report from her subordinates that Mu Yingting had arrived!
This left Su Guyan utterly baffled as to why Mu Yingting would come, what was he doing here?
Previously, Ye Xunhuan had domineered in the Mu family residence, and with the appearance of Tang Yurou, Mu Yingting had not dared to utter a word and had to watch as Ye Xunhuan left with her.
Logically, Mu Yingting ought to harbor hatred towards her, even wanting to kill her, but now he had personally come to Jiangzhong City and even sought an audience with her.
Su Guyan couldn’t figure out what Mu Yingting wanted to do.
When something is out of the ordinary, there must be a demon at play, a fact Su Guyan firmly believed. The old fox definitely had something in mind; he wouldn’t have come otherwise!
Originally, Su Guyan didn’t intend to meet with Mu Yingting, but on second thought, since Mu Yingting had already come, and had done so in person, it would be somewhat awkward not to meet him.
After all, she was once regarded as Mu Yingting’s granddaughter-in-law, and Su Guyan was also curious to see what Mu Yingting was really up to!
Therefore, Su Guyan had someone bring Mu Yingting over, and she waited for him in the office.
After a while, someone knocked on the half-closed office door from the outside.
Hearing the knock, Su Guyan immediately snapped out of her reverie, "Come in!"
Just as Su Guyan’s voice fell, the slightly ajar office door was pushed open from the outside.
Suddenly, a young lady in a pink OL (office lady) suit appeared at the door with an elderly man.
The old man was dressed in a Zhongshan suit, a style rarely worn by people nowadays.
In his Zhongshan suit, the elder did not look at all feeble. On the contrary, he carried an air of vigorous energy, his complexion was unusually rosy, and his eyes were particularly bright and spirited!
This elderly man was none other than Mu Yingting.
The current Mu Yingting seemed to have walked out of the profound sorrow that had plagued Ye Xunhuan’s brain regarding the Mu family.
"President Su, Elder Mu has arrived!" the young lady said respectfully to Su Guyan.
"You can leave," Su Guyan said indifferently.
Upon hearing Su Guyan’s words, the young lady respectfully exited the office, taking care to close the door behind her.
After the young lady had left, Su Guyan stood up from her desk and with a light smile on her delicate, fair face, she asked, "I’m curious what brings Elder Mu all the way here from Tianjin to find me?"
Su Guyan did not beat around the bush with Mu Yingting, but straightforwardly inquired.
Mu Yingting looked at Su Guyan and let out a light sigh, "Won’t you invite me to sit down?"
"Please, Elder Mu, have a seat," Su Guyan said politely, gesturing towards the sofa in the reception area of the office.
Mu Yingting slowly made his way to the sofa, and after sitting down, he looked at Su Guyan and asked, "Do you still resent me?"
"Elder Mu, what are you talking about!"
"About the incident last time, I know our Mu family went too far and wronged you!" Mu Yingting looked at Su Guyan with sincere eyes, "At the same time, I was unaware of your previous relationship with Ye Xunhuan, nor did I know about the despicable methods used by Mu Tiange, let alone that Tiange... Tiange actually... actually likes men..."
Upon mentioning this, a troubled expression surfaced on the face of Mu Yingting, which was otherwise flushed with health.
"You have suffered such unfair treatment, and it was our Mu family’s fault!"
Seeing the sincere look on Mu Yingting’s face, Su Guyan spoke with some suspicion, "Elder Mu, your visit today..."
"That’s right, I’ve come to apologize to you!" Mu Yingting said earnestly, "I hope you can forgive the Mu family, forgive me..."
Su Guyan did not respond immediately; her bright, star-like eyes swept back and forth over Mu Yingting.
This old man was behaving too strangely.
In Su Guyan’s memory, Mu Yingting was not someone who easily bowed his head to others.
It seemed like Mu Yingting could sense the doubt within Su Guyan’s heart and spoke again, "I know it might be hard for you to believe what I say so suddenly!"
"Even if it were me, I wouldn’t believe it, either!" Mu Yingting said with utmost seriousness and gravity, "But please trust that I am truly here with sincere intentions to apologize to you!"
"Of course, there is also something I would like to ask of you," he continued.
Upon hearing this last sentence from Mu Yingting, a smile flitted across Su Guyan’s face. No wonder this old man was conceding; he needed a favor from her.
But what could he possibly ask of her, and what could she help him with?
Could it be that the Qin family, the one behind Ye Xunhuan, had acted against the Mu family again, leaving them with no way out and thus compelling them to seek her help, to speak on their behalf to Ye Xunhuan?
