The Old Madam was annoyed. “You heard what she said just now. Mu Siyin is now a major shareholder in the company. The proposal won’t go through the Board of Directors as long as she doesn’t agree. We really can’t help them.”
Mu Xingyu’s eyes reddened in anger. “Mu Siyin this, Mu Siyin that! Are you scared of her too now, Grandma?”
The atmosphere stiffened the moment Mu Xingyu said that.
Old Madam Mu lifted her chilly, snake-like eyes and at Mu Xingyu. She uttered, “A wise man submits to the circumstances, Xingyu. Do I have to teach you when to pounce and when to take a step back?”
Taken aback by the Old Madam’s gaze, Mu Siyin immediately lowered her head. Although she felt wronged, she could only say, “I’m sorry, Grandma. I made an insensitive remark.”
Seeing this, Li Tongzhi hurriedly added, “That’s right, Mom. Xingyu must be very furious with Mu Siyin, and that’s why she said that in the spur of the moment. Don’t take it to heart.”
Mu Heyuan frowned as he stood up from the sofa. “It’s late now. All of you should go to your rooms and rest. I’m afraid we have to put aside Gu Corporation’s issue for a while.”
Mu Corporation had just stabilized and was not in a spot to take risks.
Old Madam Mu stood up too and said steadily, “Go back to your rooms.”
As the mother and son left consecutively, Mu Xingyu sat angrily on the sofa and said unhappily, “No one even cares about me. Mu Siyin, that wretch has completely ruined my reputation. If I can’t help Gu Corporation this time, Yifan won’t treat me half as nice as he is now.”
Gu Yifan had been treating Mu Xingyu very well for the past two days. However, those were just words. Since he had broken two of his ribs, he could not get out of bed and could only whisper her sweet words.
Li Tongzhi creased her forehead when she heard this. “Don’t be so impatient, Xingyu. Your father didn’t refuse you either. I think it’s because Mu Corporation has just gotten back on its feet. It would be very risky if we transfer money out at this moment. Wait a few days and see. Maybe Gu Corporation’s stock prices would rise again and take a turn for the best?”
Mu Xingyu was extremely upset. She stood up from the sofa and said gloomily, “I’m going back to my room.”
Seeing this, Li Tongzhi glared and gritted her teeth. “Mu Siyin, that b*tch! When I have the chance, I’ll teach her a lesson that she’ll never forget!”
It would be hard to dispel her hatred if she did nothing.
Mu Siyin leaned against the door irritatedly the moment she got to her room.
Now that her relationship with the Mu family was down the drain, they would definitely not tell her anything if she asked them about what happened that year. Even if they did, it might not be the truth.
It looked like she had to change her plans now.
She walked tiredly to the side of her study table and picked up the family portrait of her with her mom and sister. Lifting her finger, she gently caressed the left side of the frame, at the beautiful woman with long, red hair.
The person was Mu Siyun, her elder sister, whom Mu Siyin now looked 70 percent identical to.
The next morning, Mu Siyin woke up in shock as her alarm rang.
She knitted her brows together bitterly and squinted her eyes as she got out of bed.
This was the struggle of an office worker.
No matter how tired you were, you had to get out of bed when it was time to.
After washing up, Mu Siyin headed downstairs, where she bumped into both Mu Xingyu and Li Tongzhi.
She paused for a while and pretended not to see them as she headed towards the dining room.
Seeing this, Mu Xingyu raised her chin and grunted. Then, she raised her voice, but it was not clear if she meant for Li Tongzhi or Mu Siyin to hear her.
“I’m so happy right now, Mom. I couldn’t believe my ears when Yifan called me last night. Gu Corporation has come through.”
The Old Madam was annoyed. “You heard what she said just now. Mu Siyin is now a major shareholder in the company. The proposal won’t go through the Board of Directors as long as she doesn’t agree. We really can’t help them.”
Mu Xingyu’s eyes reddened in anger. “Mu Siyin this, Mu Siyin that! Are you scared of her too now, Grandma?”
