Sir, How About A Marriage? Chapter 100 - Meeting

Chapter 100 - Meeting

Mu Chen and Cheng Che exchanged a look before Cheng Che said, "Brother, go ahead. Don't worry. I'll take care of things on this side."

As Mu Chen walked, his heart was filled with countless thoughts. When he arrived, he saw Ning Zhe sitting on the sofa in the lounge. He held Ning Zhe's gaze as he walked toward Ning Zhe.

When Mu Chen finally stood before Ning Zhe, Ningzhe slowly rose to his feet before he extended his hand. "President Mu, I'm sorry for showing up uninvited.'

Mu Chen shook Ning Zhe's hand as he said, "There's no need to be too courteous, President Ning. Please take a seat."

After sitting down, Mu Chen silently sized up Ning Zhe.. Blood relations were really magical. He could see a shadow of Song Ning on Ning Zhe; their eyebrows were really similar. It was just like how he looked exactly like his father despite him hating his father.

Ning Zhe broke the silence first. "President Mu, I believe you know the reason for my visit, right?"

"President Ning, you can call me Mu Chen," Mu Chen said politely. Regardless of Ning Zhe's relations.h.i.+p with Song Ning, he was still Song Ning's father no matter what.

Ning Zhe looked at Mu Chen silently for a few seconds before he said again, "Alright, Mu Chen, I want to ask you what's your relations.h.i.+p with Song Ning…'

Mu Chen straightened his back and tidied his clothes before he said, "Song Ning is my wife."

Ning Zhe's gaze seemed to sharpen as he said, "Then, are you aware that she's my daughter? Her real name is Ning Xia."

Mu Chen nodded. "Yes. However, I wasn't aware of that when we first got married. I only found out later on."

Ning Zhe's expression turned stern as he said, "Mu Chen, don't think I'll be courteous to you just because you're an outstanding talent. I advise you to put away your evil thoughts and leave my daughter. Don't think I don't know what you're scheming. My daughter is pure and kind, but I'm not dead yet. I'll definitely protect her from being deceived by you."

Upon hearing these words, Mu Chen furrowed his eyebrows and said, "President Ning, I think you've misunderstood something. Song Ning and I are truly in love. What schemes do you think I have? She's just a student who hasn't even graduated yet…"

Ning Zhe sneered. "Her mother left Zhuang Ji to her. However, now you've taken over the management of the studio. Do you dare say you don't covet her a.s.sets?"

Mu Chen only smiled faintly as he replied, "President Ning, have you been here before? If you have, I'm sure you should be aware of how this place was like before, right? We spent a few months renovating this place to revive the business, but you say I'm coveting Song Ning's a.s.sets. President Ning, you said you're protecting Song Ning, but if that's the case, Zhuang Ji wouldn't have been on the brink of closing down before this, right? Don't you think you're being unreasonable and self-righteous by coming here to accuse me of such things?"

Upon hearing these words, Ning Zhe was furious.

Mu Chen seemed unaffected as he continued to say, "President Ning, I respect the fact that you're Song Ning's father. If you came to ask me to treat Song Ning well, I'll definitely listen to you respectfully. However, if you're here to make baseless accusations, I'm sorry, but I won't stand for it."

Before Ning Zhe could reply, Mu Chen continued to say, "There is something I don't understand. Since President Ning is here today, I want to take the opportunity to ask about Song Ning's stress reaction."

"Stress reaction?" Ning Zhe was puzzled.

Mu Chen nodded. "That's right. The moment Song Ning sees someone related to the Ning family, she'll get a stress reaction. Her body would tremble violently, and her heart rate would rise. Following that, she would throw up. Even if she didn't eat anything yet, she would throw up. So far, I've seen this happen three times. The first time was when she ran into you in the restaurant in the Mu Group's building. The second time was when she met your Ning family's butler. Finally, the third time was when Madam Ning visited our house to cause trouble. Every time she meets someone from the Ning family, her reaction would be the same. I want to ask President Ning what did you do to her for her to react so violently? If it's like you said, that you've been protecting her, why is she like that? Apart from that, when Zhuang Ji was on the verge of bankruptcy, why didn't you step forward to help her?"

Ning Zhe stared at Mu Chen intently as he asked, "You said my wife went to your house to cause trouble?"

Mu Chen nodded. He asked, slightly surprised. "You didn't know?"

Ning Zhe said angrily, "Nonsense. My wife said she didn't see Ning Xia when she visited your house. She only heard Old Madam Mu mentioning her granddaughter-in-law's name is Song Ning. My wife is unaware that my daughter has changed her name to Song Ning!"

Mu Chen looked at Ning Zhe silently. His gaze was filled with pity as he said, "So you believe your wife's words?"

Ning Zhe did not answer Mu Chen's question, but his expression clearly stated that he thought he did not have any reason to doubt his wife.

Upon seeing this, Mu Chen laughed angrily. "I understand now why Song Ning would have such a reaction to the people from the Ning family. It probably has a lot to do with your att.i.tude of believing lies and disbelieving the truth. You've made her heart grow numb, but you want to put on the act of a good father in front of me? How hypocritical. President Ning, even if you don't understand your daughter, you should understand that your threats mean nothing to me."

Following that, Mu Chen did not wait for Ning Zhe's reply. He rose to his feet and said before leaving, "President Ning, today is Zhuang Ji's big day. We're all very busy. Please leave."
