Mu Beiting walked into the villa and instantly saw a man sitting on the sofa in the center of the hall! The man was about seventy years old, with graying hair, sharp eyes, and a face full of wrinkles that exuded authority! Just one glance was enough to tell that this person was surely soone who had held great power in his youth, and even without speaking, his innate aura was enough to intimidate others.
Looking more closely, he and Mu Beiting had so similarities in their brows and eyes! However, Mu Beiting’s features were more refined and attractive.
This man was none other than Mu Beiting’s biological father, Mu Huajian!
The butler led Mu Beiting into the room and respectfully said, "Sir, I’ll go get you so tea!"
Mu Beiting replied coldly, "No need!"
"This...!" The butler hesitated, glancing at Mu Huajian.
Impatiently, Mu Beiting uttered a single word, "Leave!"
"Yes!" Frightened by Mu Beiting’s aura, the butler quickly scampered away.
Mu Huajian, buried in his newspaper, listened to the conversation between the butler and Mu Beiting and said without raising his head, "You finally agreed to see ? If I hadn’t used so tricks, would you have never agreed to et ?"
Mu Beiting sat on the sofa opposite him, his eyes cold, irritated as he said, "Why have you gone to such lengths to see ?"
Mu Huajian folded the newspaper in his hands and placed it on the coffee table in front, his gaze moving to Mu Beiting, unabashedly scrutinizing him from head to toe.
Seeing Mu Beiting’s usual indifferent manner, Mu Huajian felt a slight pang in his heart and lanted, "Three years have passed; we haven’t t for three years! You’re still the sa as before, without any change!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Beiting showed no change in expression and directly stood up, ready to leave.
Mu Huajian frowned, harshly commanding, "Stop! After three years, are you that eager to leave?"
With his back to him, Mu Beiting said coldly, "I don’t have ti for your nonsense!"
Enraged, Mu Huajian stood up and snapped, "What kind of attitude is this? Is this how you talk to your father? I’m your dad!"
Mu Beiting sneered, taking a step to leave.
Mu Huajian hurriedly moved to block his path, demanding, "Tell , why did you fire Rufeng?"
"No reason!" Mu Beiting didn’t even glance at him, answering without any expression.
Mu Huajian, sowhat helpless, said, "Rufeng is the only son your brother left behind! Now, the Mu family belongs entirely to you, so can’t you tolerate him?"
"I can’t!" Mu Beiting replied definitively.
"You...!" Mu Huajian was infuriated; although he knew Mu Beiting had this character, being rebutted like this still made him uncomfortable.
Being dominant at ho for his whole life, he had never been treated with such disdain.
Mu Beiting’s lips parted slightly, speaking with unshakable certainty, "If it’s about Mu Rufeng, you don’t need to waste your breath. I’ve made my decision, and I’ll never retract it!"
Mu Huajian knew Mu Beiting was accustod to being domineering. Once he made a decision, nothing could change it.
eting his son was already difficult, and he didn’t want to argue with him! So, shifting from the topic of Mu Rufeng, he asked, "Tell , who was the woman who answered the phone last night?"
"No comnt!" Mu Beiting’s deanor remained unchanged, his expression as usual.
Mu Huajian, patiently, asked again, "Was the woman who answered the phone last night Ye Anxin? Rufeng’s forr romantic interest?"
Upon hearing this na, Mu Beiting frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.
Mu Huajian saw all of his expressions and his eyes suddenly narrowed, imdiately understanding.
Though their father-son relationship wasn’t great, over the years, Mu Huajian had t countless people and understood what expressions represented which feelings!
Furthermore, Mu Beiting’s expression was so obvious just now, if he still couldn’t understand, it would be a waste of his decades of maneuvering in the business world.
Hearing this, Mu Huajian was outraged, incredulously shouting, "It’s really her? Your sister-in-law told last ti, and I didn’t believe it. Unexpectedly, you’ve really gotten involved with that woman? Her family background is poor; her father is a gambling addict, her mother a lowly commoner! What kind of good daughter could co out of such a family? She’s flighty and fickle, quickly getting involved with you after Rufeng dumped her, which shows how scheming she is! Mu Beiting, you’ve been traversing the business world for ten years, how could you be bewitched by such a worthless girl? I’m truly disappointed in you!"
Mu Beiting’s face abruptly darkened, becoming extrely difficult to look at, "You have no right to speak about her that way! She’s purer than anyone, especially you!"
"You’re angry with over a girl?" Mu Huajian’s eyes widened in disappointnt, "Mu Beiting, where has your cool-headedness gone? Where’s your wisdom? Where’s your indifference? As a successful businessman, revealing your true emotions before others is taboo! And yet, for Ye Anxin, you’ve let see right through you multiple tis! Mu Beiting, I forbid you from being with Ye Anxin; she’ll ruin you! She’s absolutely unworthy of you! A woman who has been played by another man isn’t fit to marry into our Mu Family!"
"Hmph!" Regarding Mu Huajian’s words, Mu Beiting rely snorted disdainfully.
Hurt by Mu Beiting’s contemptuous attitude, Mu Huajian asserted domineeringly, "This is an order!"
"You have no authority to order !" Mu Beiting’s gaze grew colder, stepping forward intending to leave.
Grinding his teeth, Mu Huajian hissed, "If you don’t drive Ye Anxin away, the J City project won’t continue!"
Mu Beiting coldly curled his lips, "I’ve already notified the withdrawal of all Ji funds from the project. No need for their threats; I, Mu Beiting, will not be threatened by anyone!"
Mu Huajian’s eyes widened in disbelief at Mu Beiyu, "You! Do you realize how much loss halting the project’s construction will cause the Mu family?"
"This is caused by you, not !" Mu Beiting’s thin lips lifted slightly, casting Mu Huajian a glance.
"You like that girl so much? You’re willing to risk the Mu family being liquidated to fight to the end because of her?" Mu Huajian’s words almost squeezed through clenched teeth.
He had raised this son for twenty years and had never seen him get so emotional over a woman!
Not even for Ruan Zhitong back then!
Mu Beiting snorted coldly, "I told you, I will not be threatened by anyone!"
"You...!" Mu Huajian was so angry he was speechless, his old face a mix of colors like a palette, looking extrely unpleasant.
"You better not have any bad thoughts toward her! Otherwise...!" At this point, Mu Beiting didn’t continue! All the words, all the aning, were unspoken yet understood.
Mu Huajian angrily retorted, "You’re threatening ?"
