Chapter 113
When Mu Lee and Gu Tingchen returned home, it was already 7 in the evening.
"Madam and sir, why did you come back so late today?" Sister Liu carried two cups of tea that she had just brewed in the kitchen.
"The two of us are very happy today. The deal has been concluded, and we just ate some food outside. And we even brought you a lot of delicious food." After saying that, Mu Lee took back the fresh food that she had packed and handed it over to the Sister Liu, "The steak in this house is not bad, let's go out together to eat later."
"I don't need to. In the future, the two of you will be happy and if you want to eat outside, just tell me and I won't need to prepare dinner for you."
Seeing the couple being so happy, Sister Liu was also very happy. She felt that their happiness was more important than anything else.
"I'll go upstairs and take a bath first." Mu Lee walked upstairs, but just as she turned the corner of the second floor, Mu Lee's phone suddenly rang. The sudden ringtone startled Mu Lee.
"It's grandpa." Mu Lee took out her phone and looked at the caller ID. Gu Tingchen told her to quickly answer the call.
"Hello, is there anything wrong with you calling me so late at night?" Mu Lee's tone was more gentle, and the voice she spoke was extremely gentle as well.
"Xiao Li, you've been busy with company matters these past few days, so you don't have the time to come home. Come back and see grandpa today, right?" Mu Yu's tone of voice was no different from usual, it was more like the tone of a grandfather who was concerned about his granddaughter.
However, Mu Lee looked at the time. It was already past 7 at night, and the sky was already dark at this time of the year.
Gu Tingchen saw that Mu Lee's expression was not right, and immediately switched on the handphone, then heard Mu Yu speak again: "I feel unwell recently, so I wanted to call you back to take a good look at you."
Mu Lee saw that Gu Tingchen was waiting for his response, so he nodded, and Mu Lee agreed: "Alright, I will go back now."
"Oh yeah, call Gu Tingchen to come back together with us." Originally, Mu Lee had even planned to ask if she should bring Gu Tingchen back, but she didn't expect that her grandfather would actually be the first to speak. The two of them tidied up everything before leaving the villa for the Mu Family.
While driving, Mu Lee looked at the man beside him: "Why do I feel like something's not right today. Grandfather is still calling me back at this late hour, is something wrong with your Mu Family?"
"When something abnormal happens, there must be demons. Even if we blindly speculate here, it will be completely useless. Wait until we reach Mu Family. Then we can find out what exactly happened. "
In Gu Tingchen's opinion, it was definitely not because he wanted to see Mu Lee, nor was it possible for Mu Yu to call him back at such a late hour.
When the car arrived at the Mu Family entrance, they saw that their whole family was standing at the entrance, as if they were waiting for Gu Tingchen and Mu Lee. Mu Lee glanced at Gu Tingchen: "At that time, even when I went back to the door, it didn't seem like there was such a large party, it seems like they had something they wanted us to do."
"No wonder I had to call you back so late. It seems like your grandfather is with them as well." Gu Tingchen was sure that their family did have a matter to ask of Mu Lee and him, if not they would not be fighting in such a big battle.
After seeing the two of you get off the carriage, Mu Yu took the lead and walked forward, "The two of you are back, quickly come in. It's already so late, and I'm calling the two of you over, it's truly troublesome."
"Grandfather, what are you talking about? We don't talk at all. Since you called us back for something, no matter how late we are, we will definitely come back. I wonder if something happened to you two for us to come back so late?"
Gu Tingchen was not an idiot, if he really went in, he really would have to agree to their request, so there were some things that was better to ask at the door, if he really wanted to refuse he could just turn around and leave, after all, this entire family only had benefits, so naturally they would not let them go so easily.
Mu Yu laughed awkwardly, and looked at Mu Shaohua behind him: "I've already called you over, if you have anything you want to ask, hurry up and say it."
Mu Yu's expression was very unsightly, his tone was extremely serious, as though something had happened to Mu Shaohua.
The gazes of Gu Tingchen and Mu Lee both landed on Mu Shaohua. This man had actually become so vicissitudes of life after not seeing him for a few days.
"Uncle, what's going on?" Why do I feel like you've gone through so much in just a few days? Seeing Mu Shaohua like this, Mu Lee forced herself to calm down, her tone full of concern.
"Sigh …" Mu Shaohua sighed.
"If you have something to say, hurry up and say it. Don't put on airs here." Mu Yu warned them once again, "Since the people have already been called over, and they already know that something must have happened, then just speak the truth, there is no need to do all this nonsense."
