“Maybe it’s because I’m not reconciled to only getting 10% of the shares.
Su Chen chuckled lightly, swaying the water in the water glass, and murmured to himself: "Based on the current situation, once the current head of the Mu family abdicates, the position of head of the Mu family will be either Mu Yao's or Mu Xinghe's. "
"If she doesn't come back, she might not even have the 10% share in the future."
When Gu Qingshi heard this, she suddenly said: "So she came back this time to compete for the position of the head of the family?"
"Maybe so, it's just my guess."
Su Chen put down the water glass and continued: "No matter what, her coming back will not be a good thing for Mu Yao and Mu Xinghe."
"I'm just curious. Since the head of the Mu family doesn't like his daughter Mu Wanyun, why does he still hold a banquet with great fanfare?"
"Maybe it's for the sake of face." An Xiaoyun held her chin with one hand and muttered disapprovingly: "For the sake of reputation, you can hold back your dislike of recognizing this daughter. It's also normal to hold a banquet for your daughter who has returned from abroad for many years just to save face. Bar."
"I always feel that something is not right with the Mu family..."
Lu Qingshi whispered, thinking about whether to tell his father about this matter.
But she quickly gave up the idea.
For such an important matter, she didn't need to remind her, her father should have already received the news.
"I never heard that Uncle Mu has any health problems."
An Xiaoyun muttered in confusion, somewhat confused about the twists and turns.
When Su Chen heard this, he was also a little curious about the situation of the Mu family.
When the current head of the family is still in middle age and in good health, normally the position of head of the family will not be handed over easily.
Because once the handover is made, a lot of things will be involved, and it may have a bad impact on the family.
The Mu family's situation is indeed special.
"Oh, forget it, these are not things we should worry about, we just need to be invited to the banquet!"
An Xiaoyun shook her head, not wanting to think about such a complicated issue anymore.
Su Chen didn't have time to think too much, picked up his invitation and returned to the room.
He rarely had any leisure time in the next two days, so he simply dragged a rocking chair and sat in the yard drinking tea and feeding the fish.
Occasionally, when I am interested, I take An Xiaoyun, Gu Qingshi and Dugu Yueying to play cards.
However, because he almost always won when playing cards, An Xiaoyun and the others were unwilling to play anymore after a few times.
There was no other way, so Su Chen could only drag Lone Wolf to play cards with several other bodyguards.
Lone Wolf and others did not dare to refuse, so they could only keep putting stickers on their faces bitterly.
Until the day of the banquet, when Gu Qingshi, An Xiaoyun and Dugu Yueying were ready to set off, Lone Wolf still had more than a dozen white notes hanging on their faces.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a miserable loss!"
An Xiaoyun commented mercilessly, and then boasted proudly: "You are not as smart as me. When I saw that I couldn't beat Su Chen, I stopped playing!"
Hearing this, Lone Wolf and the others lowered their heads helplessly, really not knowing how to answer this question.
Do they just want to lose? Do they just want to keep playing and losing?
The problem is that they don't dare to refuse Su Chen's invitation!
"Okay, stop bullying them. Have you forgotten how badly you lost yesterday?
Lu Qingshi pinched An Xiaoyun's cheek wordlessly and pulled her into the car.
Lone Wolf and others finally managed to free themselves, and while Su Chen was leaving, they quickly tore off the note that was all over their faces.
…
The Mu family's banquet was held in the five-star hotel built by the family.
When Su Chen arrived at the hotel with Gu Qingshi, An Xiaoyun and Dugu Yueying, Mu Xinghe was standing on the first floor of the hotel in charge of welcoming guests.
Seeing Su Chen and the other four, he put down the other guest next to him and immediately stepped forward to greet them.
"welcome."
"Mu Xinghe, you look quite handsome today~"
An Xiaoyun glanced at Mu Xinghe and teased with a smile.
Mu Xinghe was speechless and made a gesture of invitation directly to Su Chen and others.
"Go up, my sister is up there."
"Where's your eldest sister?"
An Xiaoyun asked again casually.
His eyebrows furrowed, Mu Xinghe's face became obviously colder, and he said in a deep voice: "She's not here yet. After all, she is the protagonist, so how can she appear so early."
At the end of his words, there was a hint of sarcasm in his words.
Su Chen and the others looked at each other without asking any questions, turned around and walked towards the banquet hall on the second floor.
When going upstairs, when there was no one around, An Xiaoyun lowered her voice and muttered: "Why do I feel that Mu Wanyun's status in the Mu family is different when she comes back from abroad this time?"
"It feels like this..."
Gu Qingshi nodded, increasingly unable to understand the Mu family's situation.
When they arrived on the second floor, they found that Mu Yao was receiving guests in the banquet hall. Mu Jingkun, the head of the Mu family, was not present.
Seeing Su Chen and others arriving, Mu Yao said a few words to the other guests around her, then came to Su Chen and others holding her skirt in one hand.
"welcome."
After nodding towards Su Chen and the others, Mu Yao then looked at Su Chen and said thoughtfully, "I thought you wouldn't come."
"Why do you think so?" Su Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Mu Yao tilted her head slightly, looked at him with her peach blossom eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Because I feel like you don't like such occasions very much."
"I don't like it."
Su Chen shrugged, pointed to the three girls of Gu Qingshi next to him and said, "But they are all here, I will definitely come with them."
"Just let them do it by themselves, there is no guarantee of safety!"
"Are you still responsible for protecting their safety?" Mu Yao was a little confused about this.
She knew the identity of Su Chen's driver, but she didn't expect that Su Chen also had the identity of a bodyguard.
"So be it."
Su Chen smiled and did not explain too much in this regard.
But Mu Yao looked at him and fell into deep thought.
It wasn't until a few seconds later that she said to Su Chen with some hesitation: "Can you... come with me? I have something to ask you."
Hearing that Mu Yao wanted to chat with Su Chen in private, Gu Qingshi, An Xiaoyun and Dugu Yueying looked at Mu Yao at the same time.
Mu Yao was a little uncomfortable with what they saw. She was silent for two seconds and then added: "It's something related to work..."
"Work?"
Su Chen raised his eyebrows, pondered for a moment and then nodded to Mu Yao: "Okay, let's go over and talk."
"Thanks."
Mu Yao thanked Su Chen calmly and led him towards the balcony of the banquet hall.
An Xiaoyun looked at their backs and pulled Gu Qingshi's hand awkwardly.
"Qing Shi, why do you think Mu Yao is looking for Su Chen?"
"I don't know either." Gu Qingshi shook her head gently.
Compared to An Xiaoyun, she didn't think much about it.
Because Mu Yao doesn't look like someone who likes to lie.
She said she was looking for Su Chen for work, so it should be for work.
