Preparing to Go to the Banquet

Bei Shuo smiled and said, “Of course, I’ll keep my word. Brother Mu Ci, don’t think about this in the future. If your mother doesn’t love you, just pretend that you don’t have a mother. Don’t be unhappy. The most important thing for a person is to be happy! Happiness is the best medicine! Do you understand?”

Mu Ci smiled. With Bei Shuo, perhaps it was not difficult to be happy.

Meanwhile, at the Bei family.

Bei Cong excitedly returned home and pulled Bei Le back. “Quick, quickly dress up. I’ll bring you to Young Master Mu’s party tonight!”

“Young… Young Master Mu?” Mu Ci’s handsome face immediately flashed through Bei Le’s mind, and her heart could not help but beat wildly.

“That’s right! Do you know how many people in town want to attend Young Master Mu’s party? Those who can enter are either rich or noble! We have to seize this opportunity and make more friends. You also have to make friends with more high-society ladies. It’s beneficial to our family and yourself!”

Bei Le hesitated for a moment. “But didn’t he marry our sister? Is he organizing a party to celebrate the marriage? Why isn’t it a wedding banquet?”

Bei Cong was stunned for a moment before he understood what Bei Le meant.

“God, what are you talking about? I’m not talking about the cripple. I’m talking about the second young master, Mu En! Second Young Master Mu is the true Young Master of the Mu family. Although Mu Ci is Old Master Mu’s favorite grandson, he doesn’t have long to live. When he dies, everything in the Mu family will belong to Second Young Master Mu. Old Master Mu also dotes on this little grandson very much. Moreover, Mr. Mu and Mrs. Mu both adore this son! My good sister! You have to hurry up and dress up! You can’t lose to the daughters of other wealthy families!”

Only then did Bei Le understand. She could not help but feel secretly delighted. She felt happy that Mu Ci did not have long to live. She hoped that Bei Shuo would become a widow! Bei Shuo had already signed the agreement to sever ties and had nothing to do with the Bei family. Therefore, even if she became a widow, she would not be able to return to the family!

“Big Brother, I’ll prepare right away!” Bei Le ran upstairs happily like a little bird.

When she reached the second floor, she suddenly thought of something and shouted to Bei Cong, “Big Brother, help me call Gu Ming and tell him that I’m not feeling well and can’t go out with him!”

“Understood!” Bei Cong raised his voice.

Shen Yu went downstairs and saw that her son was in a good mood as he whistled and flipped through the tablet. She could not help but ask, “Why are you back at this time? Where’s Bei Le? I still want her to accompany me to do my hair!”

Bei Cong impatiently said, “Hey, Mom. Can you go by yourself? I’m going to requisition my younger sister!”

“Requisition? What do you mean? Why are you bringing her along?” Shen Yu suddenly became vigilant and stared at her son.

Seeing that his mother was anxious, Bei Cong quickly put down his tablet and held Shen Yu’s arm with a cheeky smile. “Mom, I’m bringing Bei Le to a party later. It’s very important! We can meet many handsome men from top-notch wealthy families!”

Shen Yu pushed her son’s hand away angrily. “What are you doing? Your sister and Gu Ming are engaged. The two of them grew up together and their relationship is very good. Why are you introducing handsome men to her? What if they fall for her?”

Bei Cong continued to laugh. “Isn’t that good? If any handsome guy at the party falls for my sister, then our family wouldn’t be treated as a third-rate wealthy family. We can’t even buy status with tens of millions!”

Shen Yu glared at her son. “Then what about Gu Ming? Our families are old friends. Your sister was engaged to Gu Ming before she was even born!”

Bei Cong sneered, “That’s enough, Mom! You don’t have to worry about it. We’ll discuss this topic when the results are out tonight.”

Neither mother nor son realized that they were talking about the engagement between the Bei and Gu families. The engagement was intended for the biological daughter of the family, Bei Shuo, but Bei Le was just a foster daughter.

However, this fact had always been ignored in the Bei family.

Shen Yu said angrily, “Let me tell you, don’t do anything idiotic. Don’t joke about your sister’s marriage! That’s her lifelong happiness! If anything goes wrong, I’ll skin you alive!”

Bei Cong smiled. “Yes, yes, yes. Don’t worry, Mom. You’re my mother, don’t you know I would never harm my sister? I’m so proud to have such an outstanding sister. Why would I harm her, right?”
