Therefore, Madam Mu thought that instead of having these vampires who were ungrateful and always wanted to treat them as a joke, it was better for her to live her own life well.
“My wife has made herself perfectly clear. You…” Father Mu said coldly, “can leave now.”
The second woman: “Aren’t you afraid we’ll tell everyone about you abusing your child…”
Madam Mu interrupted: “My child is destined for greatness and naturally must cultivate immortality. Everything you just saw, we were merely putting on a show for you. Tomorrow, our child will be sent off to cultivate. No matter how much you say, we will no longer care. After all, without us, how will you live? Even if you speak ill of us all you want, it won’t improve your lives.”
Listening to Madam Mu’s words, the second woman’s expression froze.
The other relatives exchanged glances, then suddenly began to show them fawning smiles, one by one.
“No, I was wrong,” the woman said with a giggle.
The third woman: “Yes, we were wrong, so wrong.”
The white-bearded elder looked at the yielding women and then thought of his own good-for-nothing grandson. He also smiled, “It was all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding.”
“Yes, we spoke out of turn before. We won’t say anything bad about you from now on.”
“Yes, yes, yes.”
“If anyone spreads rumors from now on, we will absolutely not forgive them.”
“Yes, if anyone dares to speak ill of you in the future, we will definitely expel them from the Mu family.”
These relatives changed their tune fast enough.
At this moment, Feng Qishi watched them fawn over Madam Mu and Father Mu, sighing, “What do you think?” He glanced at Mu Anxiao, who was silent beside him.
Mu Anxiao’s eyes darkened: “Even if it’s like this, what does it matter?”
“You don’t choose to forgive?”
“Cultivation Sect.” Mu Anxiao repeated, looking down, then glancing at the woman whose lips were curved upwards slightly. She said, “It seems there must be a conspiracy.” After speaking, she turned and walked to the door, hesitated for a moment, reached out, and opened the door before stepping out. She hesitated again and then sat on the steps outside.
Feng Qishi was stunned and turned to look at the door that Mu Anxiao had opened so openly. He shouted, “I’m talking to you, why aren’t you answering?” As he spoke, he followed.
The wolf demon and Lin Yan exchanged glances and followed.
There were no guards in front of the reception hall. So, the moment Mu Anxiao opened the door, the representatives of the relatives, including Father Mu and the others, all shifted their gaze to the door.
“What’s going on?” the woman asked, her face full of bewilderment.
The white-bearded elder: “Is there a ghost?” He looked at Father Mu.
Father Mu: “How is that possible?” As he spoke, he turned to the servant standing beside him. “Was that door closed tightly just now?”
“It was closed tightly,” the servant replied, his face full of fear. “And there was no wind outside.”
“No…” Father Mu uttered the word, swallowed hard, and wondered if perhaps an ancestor had manifested. But considering the reality of the situation, he dismissed the thought and shifted his gaze to the woman who had raised her finger.
Seeing Father Mu look at her, the woman smiled, stood up, and said, “I did it.”
Upon hearing this, the relatives all turned their gazes to the woman’s face.
As it happened, the woman had just been thinking about using her immature magical arts to establish the prestige of her own cultivation sect. Unexpectedly, as soon as she was about to cast the spell, the door opened on its own.
She must have saved herself a lot of effort and achieved her goal.
At this moment, she wanted to show off.
“You’re all too kind,” she said, scanning the faces of the relatives present.
Immediately, they all swallowed, “…” None dared to speak.
“Then my little girl will surely be able to achieve immortality with you,” Madam Mu said excitedly.
The woman straightened her back and nodded slightly, “Yes.” As she spoke, she looked down at Mu Xi, “…”
Seeing this, Mu Xi consciously stood up.
Next, the woman took the initiative to move to Mu Xi’s side, then linked her arm through his and said, “I have some good news to tell you.”
“…” Madam Mu and Father Mu did not know the relationship between Mu Xi and this woman, so when he said this, they exchanged glances, completely bewildered.
Mu Xi, seeing the bewildered expressions on his parents’ faces, explained, “Father, Mother, she is my benefactor, and also the woman I like. Please… please agree.”
“…” Madam Mu let out a dry laugh and glanced at the relatives. She said, “Why didn’t you mention this to me beforehand?” She was worried that these relatives would start gossiping.
“…” Mu Xi pretended to be calm and turned to look at the woman.
The woman said: “Mu Xi feels that today is an auspicious day, so he wants to announce it in front of everyone. This way, with the relatives as witnesses, they can also share in the good fortune. Moreover, he believes that marrying me will also allow him to look after his sister at the Cultivation Sect. This way, even when his sister grows up, she won’t resent you and will bring you good fortune. Why not?”
“Yes, Mother, that’s exactly what I thought.”
In reality, these were all the woman’s ideas. He merely wanted to go to the Cultivation Sect.
At the same time, the maid standing behind the relatives, at the moment Mu Xi and the woman made their announcement, her eyes darkened, and tears began to well up in her eyes.
Mu Xi dared not look at the maid.
Upon hearing Mu Xi’s words, Madam Mu burst out laughing, “So that’s how it is. I never imagined my son would be so thoughtful.”
“Thank you for your praise, Mother.”
“You’re welcome,” Madam Mu said, picking up her teacup. She looked at the relatives who were also celebrating. “I hope you remember your words. Today, consider it my son’s marriage to…” She didn’t know the woman’s name and faltered.
The woman smiled, “Mother, you can call me Xin’er.”
Madam Mu smiled, easing her own awkwardness. “I agree to Mu Xi and Xin’er’s marriage.”
“Congratulations, congratulations,” the relatives said.
The moment Madam Mu made the announcement, the maid turned and quietly left.
Then, they all started laughing.
Outside.
Mu Anxiao sat on the steps, resting her chin on one hand, having heard everything they said. She sighed.
Feng Qishi stood opposite Mu Anxiao and intentionally glanced towards the reception hall. He said, “Your brother is indeed involved with that woman.”
“…” Mu Anxiao sighed again and looked up at Feng Qishi. “Do you think that woman pushed Mu Xi off the cliff?”
“What do you mean?”
“Mu Xi was also involved with that maid just now. Perhaps he…” Mu Anxiao didn’t consider anyone inside as family and began to speculate according to her own thoughts. “He offended the woman tonight.”
“…” Feng Qishi scratched his ear. “That… doesn’t seem very likely, does it?”
“Could it be that I really pushed him? But…” Mu Anxiao thought for a moment and said, “I didn’t go near the cliff.”
