The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife Chapter 1022 - Sad! (2)

Zhou Zimo was shocked. He could not believe what he had just heard.

“That’s impossible!” Zhou Zimo yelled, “How is that possible? Lingtian isn’t someone like that! He’s not!”

Mu Yuchen’s eyes looked a little lost as well, but he looked at him calmly. “You can’t believe it either, can you?’

Zhou Zimo straightened his back and frowned as he looked straight back at Mu Yuchen. “From what I know about Lingtian, I doubt he’d do something like that. Lingtian isn’t greedy like Qi Feng. Isn’t he just trying to throw you off?”

Mu Yuchen’s eyes darkened. He drank some bitter tea before speaking, “I really don’t know how to verify Qi Feng’s words. After all these years, I kind of realized that I might have failed as a brother. At least, I don’t think I really know Lingtian, don’t you think?” He glanced uncertainly at Zhou Zimo.

Zhou Zimo quieted down and was deep in thought. His expression seemed hesitant when he looked up again. “No matter what, it doesn’t sound possible! Lingtian isn’t that kind of person. It’s very likely that Qi Feng is playing mind games with you. Don’t fall for it!”Zhou Zimo sighed.

Mu Yuchen had a feeble reaction since he had calmed down after thinking about it for several days. He straightened his back and put the teacup back onto the table. “Maybe it’s because we’re too trustful, it might be difficult to believe the truth. I’ll never know Lingtian any better than Qi Feng. I know he had some issues with me. He was probably closer to Ah Mo than to me. It might not be too difficult to verify the truth since we can find out by asking my parents.”

“Uncle Mu?” Zhou Zimo raised his eyebrows and looked at Mu Yuchen in surprise. “How is this related to them?”

Mu Yuchen’s fingers brushed past his eyebrows as he replied, “Qi Feng said my parents know this the best, so I wanted to verify it with them, but then I realized it wasn’t really necessary. It doesn’t matter what the truth is because the war between Qi Feng and I has already begun.”

“He’s disabled. I doubt he can fight against us!” Zhou Zimo’s expression turned cold.

“It’s good to be confident, but I wouldn’t have to make so many plans to go against him if he’s that easy of an opponent. I’m not worried about him coming at me or Glory World head-on. Instead, I’m worried about Xiaye and the others. Things haven’t been so peaceful lately, and it might get even more dangerous in the future.” Mu Yuchen’s tone sounded grim.

“Just do your best. Don’t let your worries limit you, or else you’ll cease to be the same Mu Yuchen as before,” said Zhou Zimo as he patted Mu Yuchen’s shoulder.

Mu Yuchen smiled and looked at the hand on his shoulder. “The old me ceased to exist a long time ago…”

He turned his head and looked at the busy woman working around in the kitchen. A warm smile appeared on his face as he continued, “I need to pay a price to get something I want. I’m happy with my life right now. I’m happy with myself right now.”

“I’m not going to comment on that. You’ve probably changed the most among the three of us in the past few years! Whatever, but I’m still going to remind you again, let me know if you need help with anything. The system for Qi Lei has been completed. He’s quite a capable man. He sent in a lot of forces over, many of them consisting of higher-ups from Qi Kai. People will probably gossip that you poached them, and you’re going to have to bear the burden again.” Zhou Zimo stared at Mu Yuchen helplessly. “Seriously, you don’t look like someone who would be bullied. Why would you do so much for Qi Lei this time?”

Mu Yuchen replied, “I’m expecting returns although there’s no guarantee. If Qi Lei is indeed capable, he’ll produce results after I leave Chenye Movies and Televisions in his hands, and he’ll prepare to start his own company at the same time. It might be a big win for both of us. Do note that although Glory World is resourceful, we can’t be on par with Qi Kai in the s...o...b..z. The fact that they could revive the near-dead Yueying to be successful again is an amazing feat.”

Zhou Zimo nodded in agreement. “That’s true, especially the part w.a.n.g Qin was in charge of. They are really focused on the movies and television industry, so is this what makes you think Qi Lei can be a great partner?”

Mu Yuchen took a deep breath in. “I won’t deny that I had those thoughts before, but when w.a.n.g Qin pa.s.sed away, she asked Xiaye to take care of Qi Lei. Xiaye made a promise that we’d treat Qi Lei like a younger brother. Although I’m not a kind savior, I don’t want to make Xiaye break her promise to the deceased.

“Afterward, I realized Qi Lei wasn’t as much of a b*stard as the rumors made him out to be. Like Xiaye, he has a brave heart hidden under his protective surface. He just needs some help, and I can help, so why not?” Mu Yuchen was being totally honest with Zhou Zimo right now. “I hope that you and Su Chen can at least think of him as a friend. This matters not only right now, but in the future too. It’s always better to have more friends anyway.”

Zhou Zimo paused before nodding. “Alright, I got it. Actually, I’m quite fond of him. He can fit in with us just right!”
